Go to Youtube.

This seems like a good challenge to anyone who can pull it off, good luck to all who try! :D

Its all out standing

An Oscar-nominated flash?

Let's be perfectly honest here, a Flash like that would have to be the rare marriage of a compelling plot line, awesome animation, outstanding sound quality, and an all-original musical score.

It would have to be... a collaboration of the best animators, composers, voice actors, and script writers.

Luckily, Newgrounds does have a great deal of those types of people. I just hope they find each other!

*Hint -- I'm an actual student of sound engineering! Go for me! =D!!!

I think ToadClock's recent release is most certainly Oscar worthy.

So let's get to it people!

You have no idea in any way how the academy awards or animation works do you?

Leave it to animation topics for everyone to outdo each other in sheer ignorance and stupidity.

Oh God, please stop mentioning me. I am years upon years away from winning an Oscar for my shit. It's stupid video game parodies. People in the internets like it. It is not Academy worthy.

It's, like, embarrassing that people are saying that I could win an Oscar. I mean, I appreciate the support but....

... c'mon

I already won one.

What about Canada?

Besides, just a note, I used to live in Massachussets in year 2000 and before, which is next to Pennsylvania (right? I never studied anything about the states except that time when Canada was having problems in the 17th and 18th centuries, therefore I do not know the placement exactly of the states. Besides, how many are there now? Still 50?), so if I was still living there, it wouldn't be a challenge for the postman to give me my 10 grand (and a T-shirt !) if I win.

Now I'm sure this is a stupid post, I'm not thinking straight at 6:00 am. Maybe if I touch my prostate I'll think straight.

I didn't know they search the Net let alone NG for Oscars? That would be FREAK'N SWEET if someone from NG won one!

Not really. I just thought promotion would have to help in some way, shape, or form.

I think there are definitely some animators on newgrouds that can be nominated for an oscar, we just have to spam them with emails so they "actually" go look at flashes here, because let's face it.
They don't know that there are these great flashes out there

I fully agree to that.

I'd seriously love to hear the teary acceptance speech for that.

$10,000.00?

I would start making flash just for that! Sadly even if I did become mildly good at flash someone would have already beaten me to the cash.

probl somethin by rtil could win

Nice idea but i have making any flash Animation

And just this for like 6 months, they could give birth to the greatest Flash Movie ever! 1GB SWF. LOL!

EXACTLY!!!! That is brilliant! We should! Where's tom fulp when you need him??? That would rock! Yes! YES! YEREEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!

The tank trophy is really cool Tom!

There never has been. There never will be.

Darn, you have ruined my charade of me pretending I actually watch the oscars......or care about any of those awards shows. He is a good VA tho

So I'm issuing the challenge: If anyone ever submits an animated short to NG that goes on to win an Oscar, NG will award them with a $10,000 prize!

lol tom, you'd be screwed if a flash movie actually won an oscar by next year :D

lol Egoraptor. why does everyone think that he could make one? I think that Adam barely has a chance, but Egoraptor's stuff isn't the artsy super-awesome-animated-amazing-plot kind of flash. Its more of the lets poke fun at how ridiculous some games are and enjoy ourselves kind of thing (which I love.)

lets be real here. we should still support adam though. he should try for it even if he doesn't make it.

Wow.

Someone finally makes a sensible realistic post in this topic.

If that post were a tree I'd put blinking christmas lights all over it.
