I must say that I was very impressed with that. Speaking as someone who knows the hell that is flash, there were some very impressive technical things there. The missile spinning was particularly well done, as was the animation. Pointless as it was the dance sequence was brilliant and had the best stick animation I have ever seen. For those wondering about that last comment, yes I have seen Xiao Xiao. Yes, it was incredibly awesome. Yes, it is still the best stick movie. BUT, this is much more impressive in a technical standpoint. Xiao Xiao was made by tracing over quicktime movies of Jackie Chan films (and the Matrix) with sticks. It not terribly tricky. If you believe that is simply an unjustified flame, go watch a bunch of Jackie Chan films, then watch Xiao Xiao. They're the EXACT same moves. Still it ruled. Back to the point, I found the animation in this to be top notch as far as stickmen. It not saying much, but hey, it worked very well. 'The Worm' was hilarious by the way. Great work.

Thanks alot, i spent alot of time on parts like the missle. However i dont know if xiao xiao actually traced moves because it doesnt seem likely, but its an interesting theory.
