Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.
02/05/05 – 09/01/09
Bill and Sally are two stereotypical American tourists in the UK. They present their guide to the UK to teach fellow Americans what to expect when they travel to the UK, things to do and cultural differences. Hope you like, Stevie P.
Good, but not your best. Bit too mainstream I guess. I think Forest Ranger is my favourite, closely followed by Little Leaders. This one lacked the surreal humour IMO, and suffered for it. Still great graphics though, and nice to see the guest appearance from Patrick.
Keep up the great work. I always look forward to catching your movies on the Portal.
And true.
I thought this was very funny even though it did sort of put down americans. Alot of tourists are like that, I hope im not. Also the sound was really off there lips would move and they wouldnt even be saying anything although it could just be my computer.
I remember once I was playing online on my PS2 and someone started taking the michael out of british people, saying we sit around drinking tea and watching quidditch all day, he seriously thought quidditch was a real game. McBrothel!! Loved the subliminal messages too!!! I WANT SOME TOENAIL CLIPPINGS AND HAIR FROM YOU!!
i liked the style it was funny but it made uk look stupid :P but it also made amercain tourists look stupid so i liked that
That is so true. I loved all the jokes in this one. Maybe you could of added something along the line of the tourist asking for directions from the locals. Anyway, keep making them like this. :)
I recently moved to the UK from the US. So I pretty much know exactly what you are talking about in the flick. I thought it was well put together, but the audio was done terribly. The levels need to be brought down quite a bit. It was causing my speakers to clip, unless the audio was just that distorted. But otherwise nice job.
excellent job on this and since im from boston we shouldve thrown more than tea in the harbor.. fuck england and fuck the uk
but awesome movie
I dont get it
in this movie it has some ppl talkin bout englend but their mouths keep moving after they talk so thats kinda dumb
This is funny ^.^" I like it lots. Only problem with it is sometimes the people keep talking when nothings being said.. but i still love this.
Good little animation, everyone loves stereotypical humour ;) lookin forward to more adventures in the crazy lives of bill and sally. Keep em comin
Thanks for making me laugh! It's funny because it's true! You should do a sequel sometime, you never had them asking any Britons if they've met the Queen. Every American seems to ask British people that.
that is soo funny it's like little britain ^^ i really liked it keep up the good work FUNNY
This was funny. but that bad audio sync kept bugging my through the whole movie.
Keep it up!
i didnt like the ass on the flag
Ok sound out of sync, ran slow. overall not funny.
As an american who interacts with other americans on a daily basis it is with regret that I must admit that this hits the nail on the head. Even if it is a farce. Very good job and very well done. Oh, and I know people who act exactly like that.
-O
Exellent and fair all round, but you forgot the townies!
Although the movie went out of sync and I really didn't like how you put an ass on the flag.
Just as long as you don't insult Scotland, I'm happy!
Pretty funny material, a decent cartoon to view. Some small problems, the sound quality isn't fantastic and there's some minor synching problems, and the filesize seems a bit large for the length of the film. Overall a good flash.
well.. made me feel stupid by the end but.. it was good. keep it up.
This cartoon is just too fuckin true to life!
anyway, keep up the good work mate.

The funniest part for me was that so many people didn't like the ass on the flag! I mean, it's just a flag. It doesn't mean anything...burn the union jack, see if I care.
And the movie was funny, although I've never met any Americans who were quite THAT bad. I'm hoping you've more to follow. An episode per country, sort of thing.
it wasnt funny at all, voices suck this whole animation sucks
We do have Wal-Mart in England, its just called Asda which is a subsidery of Wal-Mart
=:-)
I thought that was absolutly funny. The lining up of sound the the mouth needs a bit of work...and it may have been nice to see some reactions from the brits. Otherwise great!
Rule Brittania, And im not sure why everything ther had something to do with sex or rape. And it didnt have anything to do with being a guide......i was expectin some amazing thing with a map wen it showed dif people, or something like tht.....kinda blew compared to my expectations.
we do have walmart in the uk .....:s . Was alrite not that funny we all know what americans r like.
The sound quality isn't too great, But the humor was decent. and the presentation was decent as well. Fix the sound quality if possible and ya got sumtin good.GJ! What is the song at the end there anyways?
That was pretty stupid...although its message was good...Americans are stupid
I love this movie because it's so true. The graphics were completely awesome and everything was great, so good job.
Wow and people make fun of us Americans.
who the hell thought this was taking the piss out of english people? it was an anti american thing quite clearly an amti american thing, it was quite funny how it was taking the mick out of englands huge sex obsession, to all americans who think england is a more peacefull place to live, think again, the streets are not safe here any more, dont think all english people are nice, its mainly the opposite, but there are still good honest people over here
I aint gonna trust anything someone says who wears a "i <3 bush" shirt.
Very funny, nice flash you got here. and as some1 else said.. a series would be cool :D
good movie.
But the lip syncing was well off.
well there the common american from the southern states. alabama maybe? my guide to britan would be this:
1.Don't make fun of british peoples teeth, no matter how bad they all r
2. Don't laugh at their stupid accents
3. Be polite no matter how much of an asshole they r
(i guess being polite to them is being dickheads)
4. If you have to tell them off, don't use their words like wanker
5 just avoid the problems by not going to britain cuz its foggy and ull turn really pale even if u african
If you're going to lip off then don't be such a faggot and go lip off somewhere else. Don't lip off Britain. A lot of you forget where the fuck you'd be if it weren't for Britain. Just remember if you fuck with Britain then you're fucking with the Commonwealth. Canada styles baby.
I am english and all that was aload of bullshit.Clothes shops r around everyvorner. Any americans thinking about going to england don't listen to this.
2 things 2 improve on
1) The lip sinc was a bit out
2) Get rid of the crappy music at the end
I cant find out why, americans like this ..
From this film I got the impression that most Americans are Overweight idiots that r slaves to materialism, adverts and wal-mart...
I put in the idiot part, cos of the way the 2 americans talk and act in the film. And they looked Handicapped like Timmy!
You should visit Uk, before you make a guide about it.
Thou it would have been more suitble if u named it a US Ghetto and instead of English put Blacks. Not that i'm racist or nething, but it would make more sense.
The graphics cud be better. Lip syncs suck.. em... overall its nobbad..
just out of point basically
You were slightly accurate but not every thing here is "Mc" as you should well know, However it was a good attempt and so many busses around England have the same ads all over. Its not a bad effort at all. One day youll reach no1 just keep trying
Well I wasn't expecting "the fast food rockers".
I think it should have been longer, and there were no chavs.
All the information was spot on.
Liked it. :P
I don't come from UK, or US, and I still think this movie is appalling. It’s not clever, and it’s not funny. It is insulting as much to the British as it is to the Americans. The jokes were old, boring, with clichés stacked one on the other. This whole animation was just damn annoying. I don’t think there was one sentence in it with any originality in it, nor creativity for that matter. The whole teenage angst and people’s ignorance subjects are better left alone to those who can deliver them well in a joke. The “creator” of this flash should stick to animations not requiring any dialog, or (for humanity’s sake) find a new hobby. Please.
~Loric
First of all, I'm from the UK, but I'm not rating this badly because I find it offensive.
I'm rating it badly because it's bad. It's got no humour to it, the lip sync is just so wrong it's...wrong, and there is nothing of anything in this movie. Except a couple of backdrops, and 2 stereotypical American characters talking. Talking about nothing interesting.
Oh, and by the way, we DO have wal-mart in a sense - we have stores known as "Asda", which are owned by wal-mart, so they're as good as.
This is nothing like britain at all, as i come from the UK you dont have to say please, we dont sort out problems with words lol and we do store food in fridge's not wells.
The only bit i found funny was the end where you click Again? the song was funny cause it was crap
This movie was rubbish end of story, and do come to england, cause we come to you ;).
Only parts of this were actually funny. The UK needs to be judged more.
I'm guessing that wasn't totally serious. Being from the UK I expected to be offended, but that was actually pretty funny. Oh, and there's more to the UK than England. But don't go to Wales.
if you are gunna be talking about us brits you should prolly mention that we are all a bunch of violent lager louts.
ok im i know this is a joke (i hope) and im from the uk but come on this sucks balls lip syncing was utter shite. what the hell were u thinkin puttin sumthing so shite on newgrounds.
It was very funny, and thats why I gave you a 10..
Strange enough, I've always wanted to go to England.
The only thing you need to do is, fix the lipsyncing a bit.
I gave you a 10 because I, as a learning animator, know that lipsyncing is harder sometimes than making the rest of the animation because if you don't put the keyframes in the place of the sound.. its hard. Next time set your sound to streaming and use the Timeline to listen to the sound by moving the line.. that'll play the sound and then you can make everything perfect. Good luck man.. and good job.
MAn this is one of the worst submissions I have ever seen. man the lips were way out of sync. the jokes were dumb and my god i just cant say anything more. how did this trash get 5th I will never understand.
Im from the UK too, and i didnt find it offensive at all, but i was hoping for something much funnier than that. The voiceovers just dont go with the time for the character animation, and for some reason its just irritating. Dont like it, sorry.
I looked forward to this flash animation, but I was letdown both by the animation itself and by those who have reviewed it before me.
First the animation would have been great if the lip syncing was better, and if it had them move a little more, maybe walk to some places or show some more businesses.
However the biggest letdown are these people who say they're from the UK (and they could be) who seem to be offended, or make fun of it. It didn't make fun of the UK at all it made fun of Redneck Americans. I just think this animation needs more work, then it could be a masterpeice. I don't know how it got front page.
im from the uk and i dont see what any of those jokes have got anything to do with the uk it would be funnier if the jokes were about what we are really like.
What Kainy doesn't seem to understand is this animation is taking the piss out of Americans who visit England. I thought this animation was funny and pretty clever. Slightly slow in places though. We have got wal-mart now though, bastards.
Right, your animation skills are pretty cool, and apart from the lip sync problems, it was well done. nice cartooning *thumbs up*
But the script sucked muchly. It was obvious that it was Americans you were slating, but it was just rather lacking in anything witty or new. I got the feeling you wanted to make a point, but kinda backed off at the last minute in case you offended.
Aaand... I hated the voices. If you wanted redneck, go for the full on 'boy howdy' job. You wanna be offensive? Be really offensive.
Insult the British next time. We're much more of a challenge =D
this probably woulda been quite funny if the pace was a bit faster. did you even watch it yourself before submitting? surely you must of noticed the stupidly long boring silences between things. and why did their lips keep moving for like an hour after they finished talking? that said i thought the humor was spot on and the style/graphics were pretty cool too.
make more, but better.
that was so funny. I also bet its true..... for the most part. Really funny flash! good job on front page
I really enjoyed this. I'm disappointed that the last reviewer, kainy, missed the point -- this is a joke about US tourists, not a joke about people from the UK... pretty accurate too, even when they're on vacation here at home. (but I really wish I could pretend it wasn't true...)
Pretty good American accent you've got, too, StevieP3000!
-beefhaze
it would have been so much better if it hadnt been so slow. the humour was sucked out of it by the bad lip synch and huge pauses.
this wasn't that good. kinda crap. work on it.
That was rather fun to watch chaps! Oh, by the way we do have houses and other posh things which makes us English jolly good fun to have tea and crumpits with.
If you want to visit us for some time for a spot of tea then by all means do so. One bad point you say? Well... the americans were rather chubby...
yep, american tourists are dumbasses. i should know, i'm from the uk.
Yes, we do live in houses and keep our food in refrigerators. and actually we have got a wal-mart, it's re-named asda for some reason/
If I was to review this as a chinese man, I'd find it funny. Great graphics and humour. But being British, I have to say thank god you made fun of both sides. LOL. No seriously, it's good.
I mainly liked it for the Kiss intro. Kiss is awesome.
You say "Guide to the UK" then talked about England, but I couldn't really care less.
Overall, it was kick-arse!
Or am I missing the point? The only thing I liked about this flash is the ending music, it made me cry in joy. Why didn't you have them walk around different sites in England, that would have been righteous...
the "subliminal messaging" thing wasnt too funy...
and characters voices werent that great...
i dont see how it made front page but hey. thats just me...
That was racist in about 18 ways but HA! THAT IS FUUUUUUUNNNNYY so they definitly get a 8 or 9 from me HA!
i'm from britain and i still thought it was funny. and i guess as your from england i can't really call it racist as the last guy did. oh yea, and why did you instead of refering to britain as 'Britain' in some parts refere to it as 'england instead'? i'm saying this cause i'm welsh. and we're better than you in rugby. joke....
The lips did not match the words at times, and it was just not real funny also!
i didnt think that was funny at all... im not to sure how this made front page but it lacks everything and thats why it sucked so much ass...
This sucks. Not funny or original, all the jokes are lame. Please stop making flashes.
really is this all you got?
the lipsync was way off
the topic sucked
and i hated the Gfx
Peace
Digi.
I thought some parts were really funny. The fact that the words don't match up with their mouths was annoying, but it didn't really affect the actual flash. The only reason all these people are saying it isn't good, is because Americans don't know how to laugh at themselves, while us English are mostly just chilled out about it and can have a laugh.
The art was decent but the jokes were non existant.
Sorry dude but this didnt make me laugh, the gags although topical on England were just a blatent rip at American culture that didnt work, also comedy is about timin and if the voices dont match the lips then timing is off. I like your drawing style, keep at it and I'm sure you'll produce something good!
You've only patronized half of america, you have to get the preppy bitches to have an entire, country-wide insult.
Honestly. We're not ALL rednecks.
i thought it wer shite throughout n ruin it wit the music at the end as well
so can i ask how this is a bad flash?? (im ffrom england) i got asked by an american "do u have TVs over in England?" i mean WTF... no offence to any americans out there.. i no lots of cool americans and u live in a good country.. just people over here think your idiots.. most ppl anyways (i do not think so)... BACK to the review. it was pretty funny. the grphics were good. the off time mouth movement is nothing to worry about. sounds annoying but good quality so overall 7.. u americans STOP COMPLAINING. its just a joke.. we get all kinds of shit from u ppl. laugh at your selves.. have a sense of humour
But hey, I liked it! Yes, most of our tourists are complete and utter dumbasses. Keep up the work.
it was actually really stupid. the graphics were ok, and your style of drawing and such was good, but the lip sync was off and the sound quality was bad. it wasnt that funny, either.
we have HOUSE H-O-S-E, Do you store food in a W-E-L-L OR SOMETHING ... lol good job that was pretty funny, you should just fix the people talking its a litlle off..
Wow that was funny! Good work!
omg... That was shit! Was it supposed to be crap or was it a mistake??
That was good yes, but wtf. I'm from England, best country in the world if you ask, but hey. The guy before me was right you have to laugh at yourself, i mean your run by a monkey, who the fuck would vote for him, Anyway how can you call us stupid, i no a few americans one is well alright, but the other is a complete fucktard, any1 steals my word i steal your wife, ok going a lil off track, er oh yer stop complaining you bring everything on yourself, anyway good movie, n yes we do have refridgerators.
I liked your animations, but everything else just kindof sucked. There were long pauses, poor lip synching, and lame jokes. I'm American and I've lived overseas, and I know that alot of American tourists are just fucking stupid, but if you're going to try to offend them at least be funny about it...
Yer just jealous 'cause we kicked yer asses in the Revolutionary War!
*end sarcasm*
Not bad, your animation style was good, but the lip-sync was a bit of a problem. The voices were alright, but kind of abrasive and annoying, you really didn't completly lose your accent, so it kind of fell through. And the humor was all right, but they were just old stereotypes thrown into flash. I liked it though, yeah I can laugh at my self, even though that's really just redneck southern type Americans you're spoofing.
That really sucked.
it was good its true to haha
To put this bluntly... Your lip-synching sucked! A toddler could have done a better job! This movie would have been much more funny had the characters mouths stopped moving after they finished talking! (Just in case you are wondering, I am NOT biased... I live in America.)
"Yer just jealous 'cause we kicked yer asses in the Revolutionary War!"
Big Ol Smacktard said that, but they would have never done it without the French.
Nice way of making fun of the fat American Wal-Marter. Perhaps a little more work on the graphics, but the story-line was good. You should make a sequel sometime.
I am an American but I like this very funny movie! Continue making good movies!
it kinds sucked. i think the best part of the movie is when its over. i like the song at then end where they are looking at the flag with the ass on it. the song is hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Zebudee has it wrong. This seems more like an insault to both cultures, more so to US people. Think of it; arrogance, overweight, patriotic, and blatant capitalism. On the other hand, for the UK; dental plans, apartments, speach.
Either way, it makes an attempt to insault both and achieves that more than being funny.
I'm from the good old U.K... I dont realy find many yanks to be that bad to be honest... apart from they call sweets "candies" and crisps "chips" and fizzy "pop".... it had some funny moments though... I guess...
MAD J
There are some really stupid ass people that review these movies. I have seen people saying stupid american movie. YOU FUCKING MORONS the guy that made this movie is from LONDON. You wanna talk about how stupid we are as Americans, at least we can read what the fuck the author says and where he is from. At least some of us will check before opening our mouths and making dumbasses of ourselves. Basicly this flash was better than most. Yes everything was old and it was all cliche, but this is all about personal expression too. I hope the author doesn't hate American's, but if he does thats his business. I am American and I am not flipping out because of this movie. Chill people. There are just as many dumbass tourists from other countries that come to America. There are just as many rude people in England as their are in America so everyone open your eyes. You say that you hate us because we are biggots or we are ignorant for electing Bush, you don't live here so you don't deal with it, hence your comments mean nothing.
You NAILED how people from the U.S. act when in other countries, and/or how they talk to people from other countries and cultures, I mean, you absolutely, unquestionable NAILED it, right on the head, perfectly, 100% THERE. Good job, you have perfectly captured the spirit of those ignorant, idiotic fat stupid people. Be sure to keep these coming.
UK is a good place! You ever been there? Just for you dumb fuck:
1. Yes we live in houses
2. We keep our food cold in a fridge (or a refridgerator?)
3. Britain is sorry we don't have Mc Donalds sized stomach t-shirts for you, we have something we call Slim-Fast!?
4. Britain is good!
It wasn't funny.
Omega-Mario:
Are you really THAT dumb???
It was obviously making fun of America more than Britain.
Well... At least you proved how dumb a UK'er can be.
you suck soooo bad at flash. ohnest to god, ive never seen such poorly done animation *AAAAAAH* your shit choice of colors and lame comedy is makin me wanna hurl..fuckin dont ever EVER share anything with a flash community again.
ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE FU**IN ARROGANT AMERICANS THAT THINK THE U.K. IS ANOTHER WORD FOR ENGLAND.OR DO U ACTUALLY REALISE THAT ITS NOT A COUNTRY ITS 4 COUNTRIES.
P.S. THIS SHITE WASNT EVEN FUNNY
I knew americans would bitch after seeing this, they are the one country in the world that can't take a joke. And the funny thing is they have stupid stereotype for other countries (UK- Bad Teeth, Canada- Saying "Aboot", France-Being Ignorant.) when pretty much the only true stereotypes in the world are the ones about americans. Its pretty bad when you yanks travel you have to pretend to be canadians so you don't get the shit kicked out of you or get screwed around. Shut and take a joke you morons, the rest of us countries have to listen to you dumb cowboy bullshit everyday.
Wonderful animation. Anything to make fun of the stupid American. But please, realize that we're not all that bad. Not even all of the 59 million who voted for Bush are that stupid (although, pretty damn close, I suppose).
I espcially liked the way your Americans had a particular hang-dog look about them, like a permanent defeated attitude. Typical Proletariat problem...
Several things could have made this better. The Britons' replies, perhaps. Or more action, like actually going to the clothes store instead of talking about it.
You still got a 5. Great job. Keep 'em comin'!
That was quite funny, made me laugh a couple of times - oh and Omega-Mario - stop embarrassing yourself and the UK, he's obviously making fun of the US.
What is this pos. This wasn't good at all the animation was boring aswell as the character acting. The woman and man sounded the same. If I wanted a trip to the Uk I would pick up a form or something about and not watch this sorry movie.
I'm Sorry but did the guy before me just say Britain has the highest crime rate in the world. That has just backed up American stupidity again in my book. America has a higher crime rate by miles than Britain. Who told you your stupid facts... George Bush. You live in a country where it is mandatory to own a gun. Guns are illegal in Britain. Of course we have a higher crime rate than you (sarcasm) stupid numpty.
sadly, bill and sally are stereotypical americans......horribly regular.
and the UK is cool.
for u guys who think the auther is american....hes not...hes english takin the piss outa americans
i always thought americans had a different view of us.....like we all live in huge houses and have butlers and talk all posh, like in american movies(that pisses me off)....if u wanna see what englands like...watch snatch or lock stock.....or even eastenders.....thats sort of getting there. if u do come here tho.....look out for 'chavs' they r these weird species of human thats get on ur nerves and act hard when there not....
i gave it 1 on humor coz it made me chuckle. once. coz it was retarded. wtf is it doin on the front page...?
Dragoon uninstall///
Yes, us damn yankees are that ignorant loln We are the stupidest most stereotypical country in the world, but yet we're the most powerful.... I don't get it..... I wanna go to England now lol..... I liked how you had 'Fat Bottomed Girls' in there! Queen Rocks!
crap, and it is the uk so why do they keep saying here in england there is other countries in the uk not just english cunts
Yes, stay the fuck away from England. If i see any americans acting like that in my city, im going to shoot you!
the voices sucked, the humor sucked, this whole thing was just plain annoying. front page? yea... rite...
dude is this serious if this is serious than you suck cuz the uk is cool (i don't say that becuz i live there oooo wait i do) but i think i'm boring people besides meself
Full marks, I hate america too.
For his benefit, I don't think Bill and Sally were simultaneously in all the countries in the UK. It's like saying you can be both in New York AND in the US, moron.
And as for my review: it was pretty good! The accents aren't bad, either, but there could be a few more Americanisms, and we don't say "adverts." Ever. They're ads, or commercials, or if they're billboards, billboards.
When satire lands in the incapable hands of a wanker. If it were possible I'd give you a negative score, but the lowest I can give is a 0. Everything about this was bad, and I can't honestly think of a single reason for it to be on the front page.
Go play in traffic.
ha, hey this was pretty good, not such a bad flick. I enjoyed it, but hey i think the same way about british people some times to. keep up the good work. hope to see some more things like this from you.
some of the british signs and stuff are kewl just as well (McGirls, rapey-chew, and bugger king try our buns.)
and you got some sponcerships in this to, nice.. you could have show that microsoft ad a little more i had to take a look at it a second time to see that picture of bill gates
so yes this was a pretty good flash and my best review ever, lol
This guy is FROM England. He's not ripping on the residents of the UK, he's making fun of American tourists. And he's right, for the most part. A lot of Americans can't handle other countries. I thought this was great, I just wish other people would realize that they come to Newgrounds to be shocked and offended, not to view high quality family programming.
I saw a few reviews from Brits who thought this was making fun of the UK. I, personally, felt this was making fun of dumbass Americans. You know, the same kind of people that support Bush.
It still sucked ass. Not funny.
The sound had trouble synching; the animation kept on going choppily trying to keep up with the words being spoken...on top of that, it just kinda got boring at some parts, because they didn't move that much...in fact....not much really happened in this...anyway, some of the jokes were okay and others were just trying to hard, so I'm giving this the in-between vote here. Anyway, keep trying to get better man, at least THIS made it onto the Home Page. Sorry but I'll have to vote a 2.
Phobos Technology, Phobotech.
but I see that the creator of this flash doesent like americans very much (americans are ok, but the ones that voted for Bush are just some bunch of animals)... I didnt like the humor very much, but you're right that americans cant survive without they're McDonalds and Wallmart.
hahahaha this was a good one and for u big_cock1,what ever Tom smoked u gotta have smoked it before u reviewed this flash
Look people the only reason I gave it 1 in humor because it was so fucking funny how someone could have made something like this.I don't evern know how to make animation shorts and I could have done a better job! If any of you people have any since or brains don't waste your time.
amaticens suck on big stif penis., every onme of them. YOU HEAR THAT, YOU ALL ARE A SAD ECSUCE FOR HUMUNS! amaricens are far, queer, and gay. they stuf big hard cock up there ass!
That was pretty sad...
This cartoon is obviously making fun of Americans. With the 'I am Fat' or ' I love Bush' t-shirts, who else could it be making fun of? This cartoon gets points for pissing off all those damn rednecks who are being offended by this cartoon, that is the ones who can use a computer. YOU HEARD ME BITCHES!!! YOU REPUBLICANS SUCK!!!!
They guy below me in an asshole.
Lol Blaze099, your such a hypocrite. You make yourself and your country look bad by acting like that. I can understand your anger but geez, you can atleast act civilized. Any arguement can be made well without going pyscho. Even though in your case it proubly couldn't because you have your facts all wrong. We didn't copy your language. Your ancessestors were the one's who traveled to this country and founded it moron. And you're no better than the authors, overexaggerating and generalizing all Americans as fat cunts. Excuse me but I have a slender and athletic build, I'm 6'1" and I know very few obbese people not to mention I am a very nice guy. I am neither racist, sexist, or egocentric towards anyone. =p What also makes me laugh about you saying that is, that you told the author's "how dare you judge our country without ever going there", then proceed to do just the same with America.
Don't be a fucking hypocrite, and don't be such a tool. Not all American's are stupid hicks that support Bush like the author's. =p
-Tj3rd-
This f**king sickens me.
English people are not f**king stupid.
And we hate guns because people are killed by them.
You understand that America? Solving problems without guns?
No...did'nt f**king think so...
The idea is good. Poke fun at americans.
The author (and i wish people would note this) is ENGLISH!
I am English too and the whole language barrier thing is good.
I couldn't help but wonder how people (that's you Blaze099) call themselves English, run their mouths off about how America copied (note only 1 P!) our language then write the review with utterly terrible spelling. Great job there, you pillock!
Yeah!!!
Thatz wat im talkin about! Pisses me off man, the americans take our language and mess it up, they copy our sports and mess them up. This is one of my favourites! Man, whoever made this is great. Id give em a godiva to stash in their sky but we're not chinas so i can't.
(By that speech, i hope ure all clever enough 2 guess that I am, in fact, English)
UP THE BRITS!!!
I loved it, keep it up :D
I thought it was quite good. I'm British and it doesn't other me at all, I don't know what other British people were crying about, and I agree it is taking the piss out of Americans more than the British
Evrey thing that baby_eater said I agree with.
well as a uk citizen may i say americas not all that perfect either but at least we dont go around fuckin taking the piss, even if the sketch was done better the theme just sucked necro cock, newgrounds is class but that piece of crap flash made me realise i seen fuckin popups on dog cock enlargers more amusing than that.
sound was off a little there, also, jokes weren't that funny... As for baby_eater... Although I agree with everything you said there... advice for the future, don't call people stupid then end your argument with "Merry Christmas" especialy when it's Febuary... Even as a joke, it just looks bad for your argument
I'm not sure what I found more amusing, the flash or the reviews!
A few things I'd like to say though:
-People like the two Americans in the flash do exit, sadly, and they live in the NorthEastern part of the USA. In the southern states, childern are still taught manners. Take a trip to New York, then take a trip to Texas. The difference in they way people treat strangers is striking.
-As for the "I love Bush" T-shirt, I don't know why you would think that someone's political views have anything to do with their figure. There are fat nasty tubs o' lard all around, conservative and liberal.
-Guns- America was founded WITH guns, and the right to bear arms is part of our Constitution. This was done in part to ensure that the People will not be without power, and could potentially overthrow the government if need be.
It was pretty unamusing, rather than slamming england you had to to go and make fun of american cliche's. Very orginal.
Next time, don't try and insult a country or there people without a slightest bit of a clue. There is so much more potential that what is left here, be it the british or american's
really lame ... voices weren't good, it really wasn't funny.
you didn't insult the americans or the british at all. you made the americans sound stupid by over exgerating everything. even the animation could use some work. Good idea, bad mvie
Overall pretty weak and unfunny. I should point out a mistake made in this animation that seems to be made by most Americans
A Beginners Guide to the UK
The UK is not synonymous with England. England is but one country in the United Kingdom, which (as the name suggests) is made up of several countries. The four countries that make up the UK are: England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. What most US tv programs refer to as "British" is infact English as each country has its own accents, dialects and regional variations. Indeed the US "British" seems particular to London, which when compared to another area in England such as Yorkshire is noticably different.
the reviews for this are more amusing than the flash... And all of you english kids who are pissed off at this because you think it's calling the english stupid ARE stupid. how much more obvious can it be: THIS IS MAKING FUN OF AMERICANS. everything there is about the american stereotype that americans think they're supreme over other people. i agree with baby_eater.
Reminds me of Family Guy and their jokes on stereotypes.. hilarious
well that was funny you should take the pi** out of Tony Blair next we don't like him very much
seriously though where do they store their food? lol southern bastards...i'm an american and i think this is funny and people who don't think this is funny need to lighten up. "he made fun of americans ow my feelings...* lol keep doing what you doing
I would like to start out saying that I am American. Second, I would to say that I have never seen so many mispelled words in a set of reviews in my entire life. This movie trashes both Americans and the English we can all agree on that, no need to keep up the fight about it. What I would like to point out is that both English and Americans believe stereotypes about the other country to an extreme. Wal-Mart for example, I believe that it is destroying small business in America and for McDonalds I think there food is cheap and rather disgusting. I still enjoy my fast food but as far as "I cant survive without it"....hardly. As for Bush I can definetly see why you see us the way you do from the way you have seen what Bush has done to the world in the media. Thanks to him the world now sees us as bullies and money-hungry. I dont support in any way what Bush has done with his presidency but neither does a huge portion of Americans, you have to keep in mind that the elections for Bush were won by just about the closest margin of American history. Unfortunately with so many Republicans in the house and office there isnt to much us real Americans can do about it, keep in mind we didnt have a vote to go to war.
the really sad point is that Americans on the whole are really thatg stupid! and know nothing of our great country!!! for example while i was in america i was asked if i learned to speak english in england!?! the women said "its a good thing really because thats our language. its lucky you learned it there!" what the fuck!?!
not juss that the sound was bad the humour was bad and it lagged alot so i didnt like it nd dats it
ive never been to the UK, and that still sucked, from jokes to graphics and sound.
you make americans look totally stupid. Really i dont think that americans are that stupid but there are some people out there that might actually be "that" stupid, Maybe in your case. Seriously next stick up for the Americans!
But it kinda sucked, the lips weren't moving smoothly on the sound, that was the most terrible part. Didn't even got my mouth moving (signs of laughing). I thought at some parts: wtf, why such a silence and when is something FUNNY coming up. This was just plain stupid.... TOTAL SUCKAGE >:(
There was no point to this crap.
I live in the UK and there is nothing Bad about are country the americans should look at there corrupted country you ever watched farenheit 9/11
Bah bush what a dickhead.......
I had no idea a flash movie (a pretty boring and bland one) could make so many people feel the need to defend their countries in reviews.....wow....just wow. We are all people, it doesnt matter where we came from. OKAAAAAAAAAAY its just a funny (er, trying to be funny) movie showing a group of RED NECK ALL AMERICAN FUCK HOLES in britain. okayyyyyyyyyys??? so you can stop posting reviews saying "I LOVE AMERICA! THIS MAKES US LOOK STUPID!" or "YOUR JUST STEREO TYPICAL AMERICAN JACKHOLES!!" its dumb. and to say 2 cartoons that talk about redneck material, in a redneck way (oh and the blue collar comedy shit is getting old, er wait it never was "Fresh") your just a fucking idiot. and fuck off, england and america sucks asshole (america more, im from here and it blows), so STFU AND REVIEW THE MOVIE LIKE ALL OTHER MOVIES. Oh, and just in case i didn't state it enough in this review, THIS MOVIE IS LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME to THE ROXOR COXOR DRAGON KING. what now.....cant make fun of me when i make reatarded comments can ya? NOOOOO, you cant. I win.
It sucked balls, and it was obviously taken the piss outta the yanks more.
It still sucked balls though.
The fat guy reminds me a lot of my drumline coach, except not as dumb. Try making it funny next time.
if you're going to poke fun at England, do it in a way that's funny.
You have just defaced my country pretty quickly there.
We dont solve things with words we fight, just like you guys.
I dont abuse america, dont abuse us!
Incase you other reviewers haven't noticed, the flash artist is from London. Besides it doesn't really insult the UK anyway. It's just funny
Ha!! That was awsome! I can't believe so many people are bashing this, this kicks ass! My one complaint was the lack of british people in the cartoon. Aside from that it rocked, you rule.
( im from uk) that was a load of rot scrot from start to finish
The answer to Link0304's question ("Why does it get bashed by so many people?") is that it is bashed by those who think just like Bill and Sally.
this is making fun of stupid americans like me, not the UK, and its pretty funny
Well at least we know what kind of people are reviewing these submissions. Either uptight and supersensitive liberals or those type of people who actually dont live in a house or have a refridgerator. I think they are called, "The people from 'UK'! Haha!! Get a life you English bastards or someone might actually make a video that is really meant to be offensive.
ok FIRST of all, THE AUTHOR OF THIS FLASH IS FROM THE UK U TARDS!! HES NOT MAKING FUN OF BRITAIN!!! HE DOES NOW WHAT ITS LIKE; HE LIVES IN LONDON!!!!! I FEEL ASHAMED TO BE AN AMERICAN NOT ONLY BECAUSE U AMERICAN REVIEWERS HAVE THE DUMBEST SHIT TO SAY, BUT ALSO CUZ THIS AUTHOR JUST DOUBLE SLAPPED US ALL IN THE FACE!!!!! omg, u guys just all proved him rite! plus, there are a bunch of reviewers from the UK who seem to think that the author is from the US, and are telling him that he has no clue what life is like in UK.... HE LIVES THERE, STUPID!! Stevie P3000, please respond to all the dumbass reviews so that ppl with IQ's lower than my tolerance for their stupity will understand your point (which, btw, u proved quite well, based ont he reviews). anyways it's funny, but the sound if off.
Where will I go at 4AM when I havent shaved or showered in a week, and only have a white tee and dirty jeans to wear?
And what's with all the morons thinking that it's insulting the UK?
But this movie had a bit more class than most movies of the sort. And I can see how American tourists would say stupid things like this, (I AM American, after all)
I remember a friend of mine asking a girl from New Zealand if they had bowling alleys there...I should have slapped him...
Anyway, good work.
borrrrring. a stab at americans won't get you anywhere.. and i'm not even american. :-/
Americans are dicks.
I would be hard-pressed to find any sort of hostility angainst the english in this flash. It seems to be more of a social comentary about american tourists... i think people are too eager to find this offensive.
well some anywho but man why is everyone taking offence so much learn to laugh! dont be so uptight. it was pretty funny how some people have no clue what the rest of the world is like. one problem with this is the sound was way off so if ya fixed that ot would be much better
Typical american tourists? I think not. Most like typical red-neck republican texan tourists. I'm not sure which is worse; The lame and flat humor, or the blatant "americans are dumb" reference. This short flat is mediocre at best, simply because of the rather good animations. The sounds are also out of balance with the movie at times.
Not bad man, this truly shows how idiots americans are, they think that other countries live in the in the prehistoric age when it is not true. maybe the other countries arent as well of as the usa but they know more about the world than most americans will ever know.
I thought that was really good! The music at the end was a nice touch.
Its not really about the UK. Its more about American tourists coming to the UK, which made it all the more hilarious for me, being British.
americans are disgusting....
Nobody I know here in America acts like this. I realize you're just playing off a stereotype but the humor here just falls flat. I didn't enjoy it.
Americans are very much like that. Not all Americans, just most of them. I hated how the video was very much out of sync with the audio. That was a cool song at the end, I wonder what it was called.
Loved it man! That was great!!!
Deaths_Servant, you are the reason he makes fun of the Americans.
Didn't like it much, slow action, not really funny..
Umm.... the "stereotypical" american tourists are much different than real american tourists. I will admit there are some real fucking dumbfucks in this country, but they are not all like that. I am a fat bastard and proud as fuck. If future reviewers want to try to convert me to their fucking yuppie ways and give me an inferiority complex, fine. fuck you. I thought this was funny, because there are fat people in England too. Though not as many. I believe that the "Sponsored by Pepsi " and "Buy Microsoft" were good touches. Great humor, but even though I fucking hate the government, the media, and most of the people, the fact that I am an American restrains me from saying "Americans are stupid" because even though that's pretty true en masse, there are a load of smart, respectful Americans who have a brain and aren't the stereotypical american fucks. Hell, I have a conservative uncle I wouldn't incude in the stereotype, because he THINKS FOR HIMSELF. He leans toward the conservative beliefs, and likes Bush, but he admits many of Bush's flaws.
In conclusion, good Flash, 5/5.
Same type of Humor, nothing really funny or interesting.
Ha ha ha. Pretty Sterotypical but pretty true! I think the funnest bit is reading the reviews from idiots that say "AmeRyicar RooleZ" Keep it up!
"Do-you-store-food-in-a-well-or-something?"
My father had some distant american relatives living at our house last summer. i swear, by the second day i was so fed up with the goddamn stars'n stripes talk that i nearly shuved a spraycan down their throats.
their son, Adam, wanted to show me how they did grafitti "up in'da hood", and explained to me how a fucking spraycan worked and all of the stuff europeans "didnt know mutch about".
Well, he shut up when i told him and SHOWED HIM that the spraycan is an norwegian invention, and that the friggin' hamburger is an italian "invention"....
Also, the car is a european invention. EVEN AMERICA IS A EUROPEAN INVENTION!
Did you stupid mother@#¤&!! fail to realize that Columbus was the THIRD man to discover america? The first one was Leif Eriksson, the second one was his son, Lars Leifsson!
AND STOP POLICING THE WORLD!!! and fucking bush....aaaargh, i hate him!!! he grew up in a country full of guns, therefore, he does not listen to anything else than gunfire!! i haaaate hiiiim!!!
...it felt good to get that off my chest...
You know, the funiest thing of this video is not the video itself, it's to see stupids reactions that Americans (not all, only 51% of them) like this "Deaths_Servant" have, using cap sure is a great way to proof us how much of an idiot you are, morron.
The graphics were really good and I thought the humour (yes our..I'm a canuck) really funny and sorta reminded me of Family Guy! The only problem was that something they'd stop talking but their mouths would keep moving.
but not all americans are like that and im canadian so dont think im trying to defend america cause im not but alot of them are like that and beleive me ive been there
The characters looked a little out of synk here. It was funny, but the movie is totally wrong. There are like a few wall marts in the UK, and many Asda stores who are run by Wal-Mart!
Btw don’t take the piss out of the Americans so much, or the English; we have Industrial sized wells now for keeping stuff cool. Everybody lighten up too, the US and UK both hold freedom of speech primary to almost all else.
OK, I'm English, right.... and I've actually had American tourists come up to me in the street and ask me where I learned to speak English. True story.
But, yeah.... good toon. I enjoyed it.
It was a good idea but the humour was lame. Also whats the deal with the mouths moving all the time it was annoying. Apart from that it was a good idea maybe next time you will get it all right.
it was alright, but nothing special.. lame
Alright im a southren, white, conservative, republican american.....basicaly the most evil thing in history according to some of you people but i...yes even i get a laugh outta this......granted most of it was devoted to the mcbrothel.....damn i wish they had those here...look all you little childish wannabe patroits chill out its a fucking movie....if you can live in the same country as michael moore without killing him this guy should be no problem....now to the author great flash...funny as hell well didna have me cracking up but i havent plotted your death and that about as good as it gets with a seemingly anti american piece.....keep it up
as an english person i found this slightly amusing but it didn't hold my interest for long when it started freezong my computer with the out of synch lip movement. graphics wern't great, sound was shoddy, the woman looked like a bloke, (but then again i guess most american woman are fat and ugly) (before you retaliate, i suggest you look at my profile) and I ended up switching off after the ' how small clothes are over here' "gag".
Nevertheless, I applaud you for your time and effort I am sure was used.
Was ok i guess, graphics were neat, even though lip sync was abit off on one part, but that can be forgiven..
agree with everyone else that, that Deaths~ (whatever hes called) dude is abit ...lame..to be honest..
Now all we need is a British guy to make a guide to america ;) would be interesting.
I find it rather insulting not all americans r fat dumbasses only bout 75% of us r lol but the only really funny things where the pepsi and microsoft things it would probably be much better if u made fun of not just Americans...not that im overly defending the US or anything @$%& this place when im 18 im moving to japan ;)
Horrible flash all-round
well made but I thought the uk(united kingdom) and england were different places ??
Haha. The United Kingdom consists of N. Ireland, Scotland, Wales AND England.
This was pretty amusing. I'm English myself and I have actually encountered such tourists in London.
Though it's usually me doing the patronising.
It might be just my computer[ Although I doubt that] but the voicing seemed to go rather out of sync in some places.
Just a quiery.
m8 i dont think youve ever been 2 the uk have u
well someone needs a high school education now dont they? the UK and England are the same thing the_1st. way to go on failing geography -_-
but the movie gave me some good laughs. thanks! :D
The bit about Wal*Mart made me laugh a little, and so did the conversation with the taxi driver. But most of the other jokes fell flat, or were just too old and overdone.
Of course, it might just be that I think making fun of Americans should be reserved *for* Americans, since it's one of the few things we do better than anyone else. (I doubt you were really trying to hide it, but you gave away your nationality when Sally said she wanted more "adverts," heheh)
I HATE AMERICANS....I HATE PEPSI...I HATE THINGS THAT ARE MEANT TO BE FUNNY BUT ISNT....
I LOVE CANADIANS....I LOVE COKE.....AND ITS TOO HARD FINDING SOMETHING THATS FUNNY, SO I LOVE THE PR0N~~~~
ha ha, believe me, you see people like this in london all the time. The typical americans, always amazed at british things, like 'the queen'. probs because they have hardly any history of their own before european settlers, but there we go... i would like to point out that we are not as backwards as some may think. england is responsible for a lot of things in the world today, including the language spoken by the americans (ever wondered why its called english?). we spoke it first, therefore the american accent is the strange one. anyway, i digress. v funny flash
oh and btw, we DO have wal-mart over here. asda is just the british chain of wal-mart stores. its pretty much the same but with a different name and uniform. trust me, i work there... :P
YOU'RE ENGLISH. YOU'RE BEING BIGOTED TOWARDS AMERICANS. YAY YOU.
Seriously, though, you're actively attacking a continent full of people you've never met. What a brave and humorous man you are! Why, I've NEVER heard xenophobic humor before! Did it never occur to you that the only americans we send over to the UK ARE THE ONES WE DON'T WANT HERE?
Meh, it was kind of funny. For something created by a silly frenchman (intentional)
Yeah, as someones already said, England is part of the UK, but they aren't the same thing... As for the flash, it was so so, I didn't really find it that funny, even being English :P Some of the jokes, like the well one, were good but imo the whole stereotypical fat American thing is a little overdone. And the lip synk went a little crazy in the middle, which was a bit annoying. But it was still funny in a obvious sorta way, and so are most of these reviews; i mean wtf?!
Seeing this on the front page, I thought I'd extend my original review (As 'mrSimon'). There is seriously nothing special about this toon. As a brit, I know a many good things that would be a lot better to poke fun at rather than the fact we're foreign and this please thing? I seriously dont get that. You're illustrating a simple language barrier and developing that as a joke, and if thats the case it would have worked a lot better if it was 'The americains guide to foreigners'. It would have highlighted the fact americans love themselves a lot more effectivly than this toon did.
The style of presentation and 'comical timing' of this toon is nothing differnt from any other high performing "sit-com" style toon you get on Newgrounds (For instance, Legendary frog and Illwillpress's submissions). There is nothing special about the graphics either. Sure, you can do the whole 'head swap symbol' deal, thats great, thats excellent, but a little more movement would have been better. On an upside though, kudos for background motion in the main scene. It was'nt a lot, but its a lot more than we get in other submissions.
I agree with the score this submission currently has, as you have got great potential in the technical area, however your humour is seriously lacking. You need to spend some time and research into common UK (or any countrys) traits and such if you're going to get a topical comedy right. However I dont see why on earth this deserves front page at all. There have been a lot of high performing flashes recently, the worst of which are 10 times better than this. You must have gotten lucky as Tom came to London.
So the bottom line was, this was crap, but you might not be. Spend more time into your next submission, script-wise.
stay away from england thats a laugh i'd rather stay away from fucked up america . we say please and thank you because we have respect for one another something you americans have yet to discover.
needed to have the peoples reactions to thier smart remarks or show more differences between the countries. the song at the end was probably the funniest thing about the cartoon
that was ok but it want that funney sound was good graphics were ok but the way they moved there mouths didnt make it looked like they were taken
Graphics and sounds were decent enough, though the characters' mouths didn't sync up properly with the sound. The comedy was bland, dull, and almost completely absent. It fails at stereotyping Americans and English culture.
The art and technical details are adequate.
Poor submission.......frontpage is now becoming less and less respectable.....
I'm british and there is literally thousands of things you could of made fun of rather than some 'please & thankyou' shit. The humor in this toon was terrible and lip sync sucked balls, on the other hand the graphics wern't that bad...
I dont think the previous reviewer (scott_b) gets the idea that it isn't making fun of brits, it's making fun of americans.
-_-
im agreeing with the review before this. im english, and that was fucking terrible. you could have insulted us about the fact that we "love foxhunting" say "tally ho" "what-ho" "toodle pip", had some of us "drinking tea" and "eating crumpets" the best bit about that was the stupid fast food rockers song at the end, and that sucks more cock than my sister.
The worst flash i have seen in a veeeeerrrrrrrrryyyyyy long time! What the hell was that doing on the front page anyway? Terrible animation, no humour at all and just comletly crap. Im not sure if that was meant to take the piss out of Americans or the British. Which ever it was meant to be it failed terribly.
i know this was meant to piss off britians but im amerivcan and im insulted.just start over and just make a new movie this needs to be kicked off front page
it was ok, i get the humor. At least, i hope your british making fun of american, cuz if an american made that...im just at a loss for words. in a bad way.
Reading through the reviews makes me hate kids even more. I think I vote 10 because you pissed of so many fat American children very fun in reading there stupid reactions.
Tips
1. Don't use words over 5 letters wrong they confuse half of the newgrounds viewers resulting in them voting 0.
2. Also if this was meant to piss off the Americans a nice message would be telling them at the end of the flash on how you wasted minutes of there life gets them very agitated.
Good Luck.
This is a good example of how ignorant americans can be. i give the 1 on humour because you added in the point that americans solve problems with guns, lol.
but other than that it did look fairly enough like a micky take out of british culture more then it did towards americans.
when british people goto america we tease the americans by making the fat lot run for their hotdogs. instead of sitting on their ass while they get fatter by the minute.
its also funny to tease americans with "ye ol'e english way" of saying things. :P even though it only takes a cokney accent to confuse them.
YA!! You Rawk my Socks^^, Im still laughing, Also, Its funny to see over patriotic Americans Give it Zero, and then Call themselves “amerivceans”, God Kids learn to spell lol.
"Truly this is how the world feels toward Americans"
The Animator got the habits of the filthy Americans down cold. I love the way Americans think they are the best in the world when the are truly the worlds idiot. America = Britians rejects.......technicaly so is Austrailia but they improved themself, while America just degenerated. In summary: Britain and Austrailia = better than America. And being born American means your only option is sucide.
Sooo true about both, Americans and British. LOL.....Good thing im not either... ;)
im waiting for it to load just read the previous review so i thought id write this before i wach this.
i think its great that you got such reactions from a cartoon anything that can make people that agitated has to be good.
watched it.
hmmm amusing i would say nothing in here that i wud find annoying i like the 'week keep food in a refrigirator what to do you keep your food in' how can people get confused out of who ur taking the micky of its ovious its americans what with the mc sluts thing the pepsi sponser and made by microsoft n tht aslo tkes the piss that england is an america wana be by the way im from the uk nice animation.
Man right in the gut! Well first of all not all of us Americans are like that in any way at all. You obvisouly got the side of America that is embarassing and that we Americans are ashamed of (ignorant southern (or midwestern) republican soccermom small town hicks). That have no knowledge of other cultures. You people in Europe and Canada have the right to look at us this way because look who is in charge......we dont even like him its the trailer trash and the rich that put him in office. And you Europeans and Canadians think that our president reflects the American people which is true in someways he reflects the (ignorant southern (or midwestern) republican soccermom small town hicks). That have no knowledge of other cultures. And its very very embarissing.
Ps I cant spell
the animation was horrible...
and the humor stale... i got the
jokes, but its not like this is new
material here.
score:
*
-Mj
Even though I'm from America and I live in a 'Southern' state, I thought this was too fucking great. I've met too many people like this, totally ignorant bastards.
Dude, that was seriously, seriously poor.
very nice indeed.
thankfully dont get any americans ever coming to derby, but in london its soo annoying. Best is watching 5 of em discuss how they get through the underground station ticket gates...
despite all the bad reviews your getting, dont worry, most of em are 13 year old americans who have probably never even been abroad (that means outside of your country btw) Americans that give helpful comments on here are those that can take a joke. But you should probably say that its meant to be a piss take out of the americans...for some reason some people think its taking piss out of the brits???
plz make more :D
hey wolf_lord_andy i agree with you thank god we dont get em in derby! anybody realise the authors english btw? i say good job, work on the lip sync and youll have a really good flash, by the way to all the americans who are getting all pissy about it shut the hell up! lol this is almost as bad as the comments on tsunami loot-up (did that get blammed in the end?) just everyone calm down okay? its just a cartoon and if anything its taking the mick out of stereotypes and not the actual people themsleves
You suck dude. Americans rule. This flash had nice effort, but overall it was lame. It wasn't very appealing to me personally. I guess it was alright, but never mind the police can fix that. I never thought I was going to would find enough evidence. Damn, isn't it time? What is it? Take that you lousy dimension.
Yeah that was pretty funny man, good job. Yanks are getting pretty sensitive about it, eh.
Nice effort
Ok. Not bad. But still, this only seems to apply to middle America (i.e. Bush voters, hicks and that sort). What about the NORMAL, Bush/Republican-hating, well-educated, well-paid northeasterners from NY, CT, NJ etc? I was in the UK recently and it wasn't much different from New York. It was nice, and thaank gawd i wasn't in middle America.
My family was thinking of going to england during the summer so it was good to watch. Good job.
I'm an american, just so you all know, like you any care. I thought that was pretty funny, with the 'patronizing' and 'hold the spit'. What really annoyed me was that after they talked their lips would keep moving for like ten seconds.
But the humor was good. Of course, now we'll need to bomb your country.
The reviewer below (Mackid) is right...not everyone in America is like this. I live in a NJ Suburb and enjoy the fact that most of my neighbors are Bush-hating Liberals who are well educated and well-to-do. I'm in no way offended (I know people who act like that) but I'd hate to believe that this is the way you view all of America.
The fat, ugly, slope-headed inbred idiots that live in the south are the ones that act like that...we northerners breed outside of our family tree and actually go to college.
Still, I loved the flash. I'm forwarding it to my friends and family!!
The movie was ok I guess. Hey Kairaega, why don't you shutup and go eat another bagel you Yankee. Unless you have been down South, dont talk crap because Southerners do not inbreed and we DO go to college. Good thing we arent elitist snobs with horrible accents like yankees are! The South is much better than the North (I dont see how you stand the Bush hating liberals, because I sure can't!)
Voices were out of sync when I watched it. The audio would have completed but the lips kept moving. I think some other stuff was said but I couldn't hear it. Like when Fat Bottom Girls was playing...
Overall entertaining. Exaggerated, but then again it's for the sake of comedy. I'd be curious to know if this was made by an American (which is feasible).
Kairaega- you are an elitist, snobbish, narrow-minded northerner.
Guardian-5- you are a small-minded, slow-witted hick.
You are both simple and one sided, you're both stereotypical and represent the worst of both sides, and you both suck.
crap, i gave it a five by mistake, just wait till tomorrow
This was making fun of American's Sterotypical view of England while making fun at themselves. It's not saying that either nation is better than the other its just working sterotypes for fun. Your not ment to take it seriously or be afended by it. However that being said it was alittle too "Dumb" to be very funny. And i would have liked to seen how the English were reacting to the US tourists.
this just reminded me of family guy...i mean all of the jokes that were remotly funny(but i didnt really get them) were in flashbacks and its basically 2 guys trying to be funny and making flame jokes..i graded you on effort
it had some funny bits but... it does need some work
it was okay. when the people talked, the sound was ok but the mouth moved slow. it would've been funnier if you had some british people talk too (I love their accent =) ) it needs work.
You know what - I'm American! >:0 However, This animation is so true, and I'm honest enough to admit it. The characters were the perfect mascots for america. We love our technology and stores and crap like that. I'm actually planning to go to UK sometime.
P.S. I love the brits o.0
very nice satire on how tourists act i find it hilarious.
You need to work on getting your voice and your character's mouth's movements in sync.
Loved the animation. Could have used a little tweak with the syncing though.
The British are not like us.
The people in the UK are mostly all skinny and stuff...And in the U.S, half of us are fat! Ya know why the UK isn't fat? It because they don't got Mc Donalds!
I Can't belive you did not make the "fag" joke... I do hope you know what I'm talking about....anyway, the movie was great ^_^
But I think that maybe if you got rid of that song in the end it would load a lot faster...
Good idea, but shoulda done more with it. To me, alot of this stuff wasn't funny. Mainly because I've seen most of those situations on "The Family Guy". And please, i'm no flash expert, but I'd know to fix my toon when the mouth animations fall behind the voice.
Stolen ideas that we see over and over again aren't funny. My advice is next time you make a cartoon, stop staying up late watching Adult Swim and take that time to write your material.
Try harder next time.
I didn't really find it funny, but I'm not leaving a review to rag on your sense of humor.
You need to work a lot harder on making the sound synch with the lips of your characters. It was, at times, worse than watching a Godzilla movie.
I found this animation to be very offensive.
Its not very good, the graphics were okay, the sound okay.. Except the lipsyncin' was ... horrible.. I mean.. ouch.. you really need to work on that a little. The wait for it to move on just kinda .. uhg.. took forever..
the eyes really freaked me out they never blinked and the body language was horrible
i think that was supposed to be funny. but i didn't laugh at a single part. the animation was only so so. you probably should never try anything like that again. how this got on front page is beyond me
I watched, but I wasn't amused, by anything.
The voice acting sucked, the sound was shitty overall, the script was lame, and the jokes were nearly nonexistant.
The usage of the fat bottom girls song was the only reason you got a 4.
Matching the voices to mouth movements could have been better, but that was still pretty funny. It sent a fairly clear message, and i liked that.
I have to say that I was heavily inclined to love this thing. I love absolutly anything that confirms my prejudices :) However, it really was a lot of the same old jokes and they weren't presented in a particularly novel or creative way. The inclusion of Queen does earn a few points, though. My advice to the author would be to either spend a little more time thinking up new jokes (or just new variations of old ones) or thinking up a new way to present them. Preferably both, but I know how hard that is (oof!). Overall, the movie was all put together, so don't take this one as too much of a discouragement. Keep working at it :)
Right when I saw this the first thing that poped into my mind was forest ranger.... and how much it sucked.
This was pretty bad too...
You guys really need to improve.
Well i myself am british but still found it entertaining because i know how much u Yanks like taking the piss outta us brits (don't worry we do the same too you) :) though as the guy said before me its all the same old jokes sooo try thinking up some new ones :) also some of the voices were not in sync with the graphics so if you could try sorting that out, also if you can be botherd i think you could make this into a mini series have ur characters traveling england or other countrys also you could try including some other characters they could insult with there ignorance :P all in all a good attempt and i hope to see some more from you
This coulda been funny were it actually made by Americans, because then it just would've been a clever jest. Instead, it's a mean-spirited, condescending attack from people in the UK that think they're better than us. Well fuck off, because that's just really offensive and rude.
On the plus side, you did give me fair warning about the Wal-Mart thing... I can't live without Wal-Mart, I'll be upfront with you.
Well i haven't made or attempted to make any flash movies, but i would like to give you a few tips that might help out. 1. Work on the quality of sound 2. Try to make the words fit the animation I would also like to say that your animation was very good. I loved the style and if you worked on the points that I gave you I think you could make daily feature.
bad graphics... and the jokes wernt funny.
i take it youre british, and i love the brits, and am american and not such a big fan of the place. that said, this sucked.
the jokes wernt funny.. bad graphics.. no life, slow.
i'd give you a poop or blam if it wsnt raggin on the us, now its like i have to do a good rating, but i really dont want to. ill settle for.. 2
That was great, it's also great to know how to piss you guys off next time I'm over there.
that was hilarious! i love it when people make fun of my country! HAHAHA ....fuckin wanker
Nothing special. The voices are done very poorly and the style is a bit on the rough side.
Nothing special here. Not clicking "Watch this movie!" will mean you're not missing out on anything special.
Go watch something else with your time here at Newgrounds.
Well..umm..where do I start? The jokes weren't funny, the voices weren't in sync with the mouth movements and the voice acting was poor. Also, it doesn't take a genius to know that this is an attack on Americans, which I don't like. I don't like how a lot of English people think they're better than the yanks. Im from the UK, but not England, and this animation really shows the hatred a lot of English people have for Americans. Sad stuff.
Any funny joke is worth telling, even if its against me or my country. This movie wasn't funny, just poor bashing on the US. Pretty lame if you ask me.
Seriously that was just plain stupid. Not a single one of the jokes probably took more than two seconds to think up and none of them had anything new original or interesting to add to the whole arrogant American sterotype. But being from America I know there are people that are really that stupid. So I guess its not totally without merit.
Okay, what is the name of that song you used? My church sings a silly song that's the chorus of it, and the full version would make my friends laugh their asses off! Can ya gimme a name? Also, the movie was lacking. All you did was bash England. There were no jokes. The funniest thing was the McBrothel. Clever. The movie however, sucked.
I dont understand u americans get all offended when u guys get made fun of yet all the american shows on tv make fun of canada and u guys dont seem to have a problem with it, well im from canada and i think that video was accurate, ive had americans ask if ive ever been in an igloo or how much beer i drink per day, or if people have pet beavers or how cold is it when relaly its quite hot and they think im stupid and slow...im not kidding im dead serious, its true
Graphics: The graphics were good, the characters were well drawn. The background images were well drawn.
Style: The style was nice, but the mouth animation didn't sync up with the voices.
Sound: The voices were decent, and the music quality was really good.
Violence: N/A
Interactivity: N/A
Humor: Personally, I didn't find the jokes to be very funny, but some of them were clever.
Comments: I notice that many reviewers claim that this is "making fun of Americans" and using stereotypes. But if you think about it, it also shows how some Americans stereotype English people. I don't see why people get so worked up about what happens in an animated movie anyhow.
Overall, this was a good movie. The jokes could use some work, and of course the mouth animation synchronization could stand to be fixed, but other than that, the movie was well made. Keep up the good work.
Klass Mot Klass, capitalist dogs!
lol
the voices were out of sync at some points, but overall entertaining
Boring man. The jokes sucked and the voice work didn't sync very well. If you're gonna try to burn the US, don't half-ass things like the French (i.e. WWI, WWII, Vietnam, etc.) Perhaps you should stop the whole flash thing and go fry some "fish and chips" instead.
Not funny, not animated well. The mouths moved completly out of sync. Just bad, plain and simple.Your jokes were horribly staged and executed. No more please. I've got a joke for you........this flash.
Alright look, something must have set you off when you made this flash, perhaps some dumbass from the US pissed you or something... but the jokes were lame, the stereotypes WEREN'T very good stereotypes really... that whole American pig thing... grrr... I'm not proud of my country, infact, I'm not proud of ANY capitalist country... I like socialism... but regardless... this movie was horrible... I'm sorry. I'm not even the 'average blend' of american either (scottish english polish irish and german) mostly Russian actually... but I still don't like this country bashing, especially poor France... sure... they haven't won many battles recently, but they have had the greatest war hero of all time Napoleon, so the guy who was bashing France in these reviews can go 'sod off'. Anyways... I've been rambling for this whole time and I don't think of gotten to ANY point... whatever... I'm tired...
what the heck, that was the worst thing i have ever seen on the newgrounds front page, i'm australian, but it still annoyed me that racial slurs against the american people are considered funny, to summ it up, you are a terrible person and you can't make flash very well
The guy below me, of course, I the kind of asshat who gives us our reputation -- I doubt he even realizes that he's the joke. People like that shouldn't ever leave the "safety" of our paranoid, fat-laden (Literally and figuratively) goverment. I'm not trying to be anti-American, but seriously, the current situation is a failure of the system.
The sound was fucked (Even moreso for my slow comp), but it was a good overall piece.
Brush your teeth you bloody faggot!
Sorry, but your jokes, and punchlines are dreadful, I idnt even smirk. The only thing I liked about thise is the original artwork. Please try out your jokes one people other than your friends or family. thanks, that would be bloody fantastic.
reading the reviews your getting by those patriotic dumb-shit americans.. thats funny stuff. not that i don't like americans.. just not ignorant stupid ones.. (most of them) Even tho i live in canada i get those american tourests here. THEY EVEN ACT LIKE THAT HERE. No we don't fucking live in igloos -Dumb shits. and YES we have indoor plumming, lol. hope this review helps clear things up.
Delivery had no structure.
This is RACISM! Your flash is simple but your so much being a racist! You really think people from the UK are that stupid! Make something credible here next time...
How did this land front page? Your drawings were good, but the rest of it was just crap. A good sign of crap movies is when the artist has a guy do the female voice. Anyway, this crap leads me to believe you are ignorant and have never really met a real American.
Oh my england is nothing like that, any dumbwit people acted like that down bexly heath they would get stabbed! Also it wernt funny and why was it on the front page, good effort but I would have thought a guid to England would have a lot more potential to be funny than that.
Well, what did you expect from your reviews...after all, this is a mostly american-patronized website, isn't it? I guess I sort of agree with some of these guys...there wasn't anything particularly funny about the toon...although you did a pretty good job of the accent I guess.
To everybody who's complaining that they're not like that but they're offended by the stereotype, I would say that they should notice how much of today's popular USA humor revolves around stereotypes of some sort...which I think are generally funny...but if you get all defensive every time you see something like this, think twice before the next time you make fun of gays or canadians.
I'm serious this was really funny and to all of you who give this movie a bad review 'cause it laughs with americans: you are all gay i mean every time a movie comes out with a stereotypical gay dude or a chinese or candaian man it's like 10/10or 9/10 and then a movie with stereotypical americans 0/10 3/10 soo what i'm trying to say here is think twice before you review a submission with stereotypes
-Liquidcore
and anything that features QUEEN is good by me.... well done
God bless England's most unabashedly boorish, undeservingly conceited colony.
First Of All, America Is The Most Comrsialistic And therefor Evilist Country In All The World, It Has The Most Guns, And Realy Every1 Is Raised On A Concept Of Danger/Protection Protected By Media And The Comunity, Making It The Most Dangerous Contry Short Of A Warzone, Which Is Ironicly Where The Highest Concentration Of Americans Die, And By That Im Refering To That The USA Is Getting Slaughtered In Irac Like Operation Desert Storm. But Not Before Blowing Up A Good Number Of.. Everything, But Hey Your Presedent Is Fishing Out The Contry From Moneyloss That He Is Spending On A "War" Which Is Actuly Just An Oil Conquest On The Seed Country Of All Humanity, By Blowing The Shit Out Of It. Bow To America, Owner Of The Biggest Army In The World, Which Gives Them The Rights To Supream Obnoxiosity. In Conclusion This Was A very Bad Cartoon And It Should Be Blammed, It Wasnt Funny, The Girl Voice Was Done By A Boy, And LOOKED Like A Boy, And Realy Had No Humor, I Give This Cartoon A 1 Out Of 20
That was great. I'll have to show that to some of the tourist when the come around. Heh heh. Great job!
Im not quite shure if your bashing the us of the Aholes or what but sounds like it to the last guy the cartoon was making fun of americans and how fucking iggnorant they are and if not well you dident make those yanks look very good the cartoons quality needs work but u get your point across...EVERYONE knows that Canada is the place to be...damn yankees
like the ending stay the hell away from england.
Ok, here is an objective view from an Australian.
I have been to both America and the UK at least twice.
America rules. Love it there. In fact, I'll be moving there in a few years to marry my American gal.
England sucks. It's all grey. Everything is shitty small. The cars, the roads, the houses etc. All grey and all shitty small.
For the record, Canada sucks balls too. Bloody french faggots who are too 'proud' to learn english. WTF?? Proud of losing every war you've ever entered? Proud of being the pussies of the world?
One of the most boring places I've ever been.

- yeah ok....

grey and cold weather is good, sunlight sux neway better cars than wer u from u wanker all the houses r better in england too, ive been to all 3, try goin to citys. if the stuff is too small 4 ya, try losing weight u fat shit!
For the record, Canada sucks balls too. Bloody french faggots who are too 'proud' to learn english. WTF?? Proud of losing every war you've ever entered? Proud of being the pussies of the world?
One of the most boring places I've ever been.
yes french r nobheads, canada is ok. but YOU are a dumb twat...
anyway... the movie sucks shit! its nothing like england and if you think that movie is realistic your fuckin mad wen I was in america, americans didnt talk that slow, but maybe ur just stupid.. they dont make clothes for ethiopians there its just were not all fat shits.
I'm english, and I'm not sure whether to be offended, or laugh at the idiot example of the stereotypical american that you've given us
Pretty funny! One point of note...
Fat bottomed girls are different from just FAT girls. :p
*shudder*.
Sound was lagging behind the animation, but everything else was fine.
I figured this had to be made by a Brit. I'm an American, not exactly proud of that thanks to Bush, but I don't know ANY one like the characters you portray in the animation, nor have I ever met anyone like that. Not the way I see a stereotypical American. Also, almost half of us are not fat and hate our president. In fact, I await his assasination. But I imagine we get our British stereotypes a little off too. Most Brits don't really have bad teeth and have "tea time"... do they? Overall, you made a decent cartoon though.
i love the song at the end.
Obviously, his was meant for a european (or rather, British and Irish) audience.
it was very funny, but (and I dont know if this was just my computer) the sound syncing was WAY WAY off. the graphics kept having to catch up.
but DEFINATELY a very funny piece, well done.
(also, to any americans who say "i dont know any americans like that", thats because they are all over here !!!!)
was good but the "guide to the uk" only covered England. do you plan to make more with the rest of the uk in?
I know this movie is supposed to be making fun of americans as well as us brits at the same time, but wow, your comedy is so lame. Your true stupidy even shows through in this movie. As it is a guide to the UK, the previous review said, "where is the rest of the UK in this flash". Americans do know that there are other countries in the UK right?
Well. It's not bad. Could be better, but good job for not sucking. Kinda funny. And careful, jay7zed. Don't be abusive in reviews :(
Come on jay,It's not as is this is really offensive.
I'm from UK and i loved it.
Good Job People.
And jay, GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!
i sat at my computer for FIVE MINUTES just trying to think of where to start on this. Lame jokes made no sense, they tried to bag out americans but the ONLY thin i could pick was about how americans are fat. (i am not saying that all americans are).
Anyway this could have been made better if it was longer and it had some meaningful jokes or if the ones in the submission were expanded on.
(this submission never really had much hope with me because i hate americans that think that the US is the best country. i am not discriminating against americans they are not all bad, but the ones who cant get over their country tick me off).
im gonna fuckin laugh when a national incident occurs when one of my fellow yanks fallows this travel guide and gets his ass beatin to death by some brits, i will laugh and laugh heartily, good animation dude make more.
Well now..i didn't see that comming :)
A few jokes about the american life when i thought it would ridicule the Brits.
I did like it and can clearly see alot of effort has gone into it. Well deserves the 5/5.
But one correction..we do have Walmart over here..otherwise known as ASDA. Walmart are the owners.
I was expecting a complete rip of english culture, but it's mainly just a joke about yanks. This made me laugh for ages, Especially the little advertising flashes they added in. Excelent bit of humor.
Sire
Go UK!
There too fat!
where? >.<
lame. not funny so... stay the hell out of U.S.!
It's true Americans are stupid dip shits!
this wasn't all too funny or interesting... i mean, it would be funnier but as an american i have the whole "americans are stupid and lazy" shoved down my throat, and the movie was too unrealistic in the sense that those two could actually save up enough money to go to another country... but you put effort into this flash and i appreciate it, so good luck to your future flash movies
i think americans are arrogant and ignorant and im stil puzzled y george bush is still president. i was hoping for more american ridiculing to make me giggle. and if ya dont think americans are this dumb then watch some ali g episodes.
It was alrite but I didn't find it to funny. Im from Britain and I could of thought of funnier jikes and that takin the piss out of the Brits.
What was with some of those scenes where after they would done talking, their lips kept moving and stuff?
alot of ppl think this is taking the piss out of brits for some reason, but its obviously taking the piss out of americans... so im ok with that.
"i think americans are arrogant and ignorant and im stil puzzled y george bush is still president. i was hoping for more american ridiculing to make me giggle. and if ya dont think americans are this dumb then watch some ali g episodes."
-pom550
Hey, pom, you've just proven yourself to be ignorant all one your own! Clearly by being a racist, you think ALL Americans are the same and that ALL Americans voted for our moron president. Oh, and you think ALL Americans created Ali G.
You know nothing about a race, so you hate them. Good job, Hitler! Oh, and you misspelled 'still' and you typed 'y' instead of 'why,' you started a sentence with 'AND' and you lack some punctuation, as well as typing 'ya' instead of 'YOU.'
I maybe arrogant, but I'll be damned if I'm ignorant. Stop skipping classes, moron.
Also, this cartoon kind of sucked.
really man, the lip sync was terrible (stream it next time!) the drawing was ok, but i didnt really find it funny at all
the jokes were unoriginal to say the least, everyone noes americans are dumb
Ok, well the lip sync was really bad at the end
But i also loved the piss take.... lol ethiopians... small tent.
And this takes the piss outta THE AMERICANS!!! jeez i guess the people who are saying its taking the piss outta us brits are obv americans...
and i agree with whoever it was who said why the hell is Bush still in power??
Pretty average basically. The lip sinc was almost non existant and it was a bit short but the odd joke was genuinely amusing, "I'ts pronouced U.K.". Try to make it longer with better sync although the theme music at the end was a nice touch.
It wasnt that brilliant but hey, it takes the piss out of Americans. I guess some people dont have the sophisticated brains to deal with backhanded humour. Unless you really were trying to take the piss out of england and act like that....
That made me laugh a couple of times. He he, Americans.
Things to work on: their lips still moved for a long time after they'd finished talking, which got very annoying after a bit. Also, the two characters looked almost identical.
Also, we DO have wal-mart here.
This could have been a good movie. I won't discuss jokes (as being from france, it *is* funny anyway) but the animation was always late after animation so the whole movie kept going slow and boring. You should work on this.
i happen to live in england and i know its only humor but the cartoon itself sucked
Nothing bothers me more than hearing a voice actor that has just come out of puberty. You honestly sound like you are 12, so ignore the rest of the comments on the lip sync problems, and invest in some prosthetic testicles, or testosterone injections. Actually, I didn't really care for the premise, it was boring, forced, hypocritical, ignorant, and overtly obnoxious. I guess you went for that look... anything to get attention eh? My only regret is that I can cast but only 5.21 votes of 0. This steaming pile of uninventive trash, and piss-poor "art" deserves more. Would someone please get this off the front page? In the name of all that is good, has there been nothing better to put here? If the answer is "no", then this is truly a sad day for NG.
"I don't normally do that to a movie. It was SHIT"
The graphics were shitty, no lip sync!The style was shit as England is the best country in the world so you can fuck off, The sound was shit because them guys voices sounded like someone trying to squeeze an elephant out of their arse, there was no violence no interactivity, was not funny and overall: shitty-shit shit shit, shitty-shit, SHIT
English: Shit
French: Merde
German: Schei©¬e
Spanish: Mierda
Italian: Merda
Portuguese: Merda
Korean: ¹è¼³¹°
Unless you don't get the picture, this was shit, you shit head!
Shows the cultural differences of ettiqute and size emphisised and the steriotypical American tourist overshown. Living in a hotspot for tourists and getting that sort of patronising I find it quite funny. We do have Wallmart (Called Asda) though most people prefer Tesco; the staff and the ethos is much better! :P Least at the ones I've been to. Giles Out
Don't care about what Stealthninja says. Some people are just too dumb to understand sarcastic humor or satire. This was good. Ok, the quality of the sound is not best, but the humor is great and i loved how you played with stereotyped ideas (on both sides). Good style. Keep up the good word and stay tuned...
Greetz from fuckin' european germany :D
That movie was terrible, The jokes about UK weren't funny. If it was about America it would be because America deserves to be laughed at. Take Team America for example (Fuckin hilarious movie XD) It wouldn't have been half as funny if it had been...Team Britain
That was crap! England rules!
Yea, It was a decent animation. But dude, super_monkey_balls.. wake up. How can you say this is racist and offensive when your on Newgrounds. Come on we make fun of people all the time, and when someone pushes back we start crying and whining. Well, shut up your on newgrounds, don't like it.. don't watch it, don't vote, don't review, don't come to NG. Oh yea, btw I am american.
I dont see why super monkey balls is so offended. im british and did'nt find that racist at all. THe grpahics were quite good as well
it wasn't funny at all, and it was offensive to people from britain, if I recall mate... we founded your country, so f.u
Ok im english and I wasnt offended but that movie was real bad... I mean, the jokes??? If you want to call them that? Real bad... I cant say anything more about it, worst flash ive ever seen on this site. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! pft.....
hey england isn't that bad!!! seeing as i live there! it can be crap at times but it isn't as bad as you made out!!! you should be ashamed
I mean, where was that going, what was the point, why was it so badly lip synced??
you guys actually think this is a flash making fun of the UK? you morons, you hear a character in the movie say that the UK sucks, so you think thats the message of the flash? its obviously making fun of white trash Americans and how ignorant they are when going to the UK. stop jumping to conclusions, you stupid fucks.
Tis was abit sour. Good idea, but the lips were out of sinc, the jokes were sour too. Im British and didn't find this a TAD offence. Anyone mouning about it being offence needs to learn what the word means.
I am from the UK myself, and although it didn't offend me in any way, it was still crap- and i still hate most you movies
Advice: Get better mouth movements those where far to basic and out of sync
Try to be slighly more comcical at least, they was boring as hell
Make it longer for what its worth
well i think is a bit patronisin on both amercicans and the english, being english myself didn't find it very funny and also the grpahics wern't in sync with the sounds, but nice use of fat bottomed girls!
the bit about how stupid americans are it portrayed the americans perfectly please make more proof of american stupidity
(p.s for anyone who is mega stupid i am English)
I like the way many people thought it was an attack on England. Bua-ha-freaking-ha.
Although it was not especially hilarious or anything, I still thought the dumb-American thing was pretty obvious.
That wa such a waste of time, yep were from england and were both smarter and thinner than you, we all knew that already so why bother making this???
The whole speaking slowly well part was funny. The rest like the wallmart bit was old retread you can see on any yahoo board. But it will make for some awesome beat off ammo for some Brits.
I'm British, but i can perfectly take a good joke against us. Hell, i usaully join in with the laughter. But come on, this animation was about as funny as bricking a house.
Come on, was the comment on guns really required? Yes, we don't solve problems with guns. But all that means is that 11,00 people aren't killed a year as a result of gun crime (or something like that).
On a positive note, the graphics were smart, if not brilliant, but at times the sound was out of sync with the mouth movements which was annoying.
Christopher J. Hall
(a.k.a. Chris Cudbertson)
The americans think we're being insulted here,
Notice how:
#1 - The makers are British.
#2 - How we are demonstraiting the lack of American intelligence on our country.
#3 - How joking how our clothing isnt big enough to fit an american womans sheer size...!
#4 - The joke about guns was showing how the americans only way of solving a problems was with weapons.
#5 - The arse on the american flag at the end was also a bit of a give away.
Your humour is not funny,
you lack the skills of being "funny"
That was pretty horrid.
Not funny. Tired jokes. And the lip syncing looked awful (maybe just my computer though).
Better luck next time.
i love this flash, i think it makes fun of americans preety damn well. ill giev you a 5
Right off the bat, I'll say that video sucked... end of story.
If those two characters were supposed to symbolize the average American, it was way off base. Don't believe me? Go tell the average Joe on the street of NY to piss off and you'll find a boot in your ass. Same goes for the U.K. If anyone saw metaphors for their country in the movie, I'd just like to ask who gives a flying fuck what some two-bit nerd thinks?
~who gives a fuck what nation i'm from if my point is valid.
This movie is stupid'...This move a glass about of you. :D I think... i hope so you understand... :D
Meh this flash is pretty boring... makes fun of america which can be really funny if done right, except in this case it makes the author look stupid himself... I've heard and seen this joke 1000 times before think of something more orignal next time.
Gotta love them American Stereotypes heh
(I'm Canadian btw so I really DO love those American stereotypes)
I'm American and that's not why I didn't like it. Some of the things made no sence to me and I don't get why you were playing a Queen song. Well, sorry, mate.
This was a good film, but kinda biast. Not all Americans like George Bush. In fact, most people I know strongly believe he is a complete moron and should not be running the country. We are not all impolite, fat, and red neck Republicans, you know. Good movie, but I like your Forest Ranger film a lot more.
this film is almost but not the best good job but voice acting is little messed up when the characters talk but otherwise good job I'am going to have to take a look at the ranger one
first of all .. you could have shown some examples.. second of all those people were so annoying.. third of all this is the sorriest attempt at a comedy flash I have ever seen.. and fourth of all.. PLEASE DONT MAKE ANOTHER
it was ok, not that funny but that patronising thing was a laugh. by the way we do have wallmart in the uk its asda.
Europe is just starting to get Wal mart and England does have the store there. It's located in Bristol. I saw one there. It would be more interesting if you have "Don't buy any movies or DVD's here and videogames because they will not work in your country," be they're reagion 2 and they use PAL and we're reagion 1 and use NTSC. The guys did sound funny. The people in UK do use refrigerators too and they live in houses just like us but they're built differently.
come on, you know that there is much more to take the piss out of...both ways especially in the more westerly direction. this can be alot better with little effort. i like the fact that you did it but there is still alot more ground to cover a good one being pronunciation, you will never run out of material there
you get a 3
That was the most patronising thing i have ever seen in my life.... i feel i am actually less intelligent for having watched it! Stupid cousin-lovin redneecks must have loved it but for a brit, such as myself i have only only three words- what the f**k? Add some humour next time... oh and we do have wal-mart only its called ASDA in Britain but its s**t, so everyone shops at tesco, which is like wal-mart only bigger and better, cos the adverts dont have a little gay smillie telling ppl how low prices are!(f**kin fag that thing)
I would like to apologize for the idiocy of some of my fellow Americans, and remind you we're not all Bush-lovers or fat people. I for one will be relieved when Bush leaves office, but until then, I will say that this is a good flash. I would like the voice acting to be a bit clearer, and some subtext for the dialogue wouldn't hurt.
If you actually found that funny, well god help you.
So what if us brits have manors yes thats M A N O R S....
sorry to all the americans that have brains and understand politeness (which is most americans but there are a few dumb ones aka george bush)
this showed what most republican americans are like fat stupid rednecks who think theyre smarter and better than everyone else... if you are from the uk dont be offended this is meant to show bad things on america not uk think about it the people were fat ugly republican bitch ass faggy morons aka republicans.
Quite idiotic.... And Yes, most people have MANNERS. It's not hard to know etiquette. This movie wasn't the best, original art. That's about it. Everyone should go to England... EUROPE ROX!!!
Just shows that theres not much fun you guys can poke at us huh? I know it aint all Americans that are this stupid (and fat) so i dnt wanna offend the good americans who actually have a braincell or two handy for some good old fashioned thinking. (bad) American bashing aside, the movie itself sucked aswell. The lipsync was poor at the best of times and the sound was below average (waayyyy below average).
Its a pity that people like you ruin the image of americans and portray them as George Bushes. Thats not true. Have some sense!!
yah I agree that this flash is kinda crap, but please leave the childish stupid crap like "bush likes hitler" or what you wrote "few dumb ones aka geroge bush" go thread a rainbow for all I fuckin care.
This flash is OK but the humor is just something you can find in the trash any day.
You had to see this coming. Im sure this will never get popular because of us brits on NG.
I gave you a 3 because you caught on how we like to fuck with american tourists (before we kill them I mean). Sound was very crappy. Learn to speak into a mic. No violence (boo). Ill give you 1/5
-Valug
we wonder why ppl cut and shit... no1 respects themselves in America. Wooo!
How could that have possibly gotten front page? Someone must be on crack. The lips kept moving after the sound stopped!! The things they said were boring and stupid! Might as well make an animation of a fat American pissing on himself cause I gaurantee it would be funnier. (Not much but it'd still be better!)
dude i like the graphic there pretty good but the humor in this movie really really sucks,so i give you a 3.
It's true, us english do say please in every scentence.
Note that we have hardly any food shops in the city centers, and it rains all the time. Why wasn't it raining?!
Anyway, the graphics were good, the animation was smooth, it was funny and origonal. 'nuff said.
Im from essex (thats in england if u dont know) so i know what american tourists are like and this is very true picture of them and im guessing in other countries also ^^
Well, for one thing, I personally don't like the movie. I'm an American and really, I just got done giving a long speech about my feelings towards people who portray us badly such as yourself. Please refrain from animations such as this. And another, the voice acting was terrible; I'm not a flash artist, and I don't know how hard it is to create voice-overs and stuff, but I do know that you should make sure all is well before submitting something like this. The animation is decent from what I can tell at least... The sound, well, no comment... I gave a 1 for humor because I partially smiled at it... But that's it.
juggla2:
I don't know where you get off by calling most of us Republican Americans "fat stupid rednecks". I'm a republican, I have not any qualties you've mentioned, nor are many of those in my school or the schools I've seen. You shouldn't make comments of that nature unless you know for a fact that the statement's true. Which in this case, it is not. Since this is a review, not a forum, I won't be defending my case.
The only problem I had with this one was that it was really portraying Southern Americans, which are the people other Americans make fun of.
Not all Americans are like that and I dont like being portrayed like that. If you are from America all your doing is makeing fun of yourself
Big mistake at the end, we do have Walmart in England, they own Asda. They've even built 'Asda/Walmart' superstores.
Then don't try and make funny movies. It's pretty simple really.
I don't know if you're from England or not, but I agree with tehakla. Even we Americans make fun of ignorant dumbass hicks like these. Personally, I'm not offended by this in any way. And anyone who is should just quit complaining. How many times have you seen a "steriotypical" Brit with glasses and bad teeth?
The lip sync in some places was just plain awful. In some instances the guy's mouth kept going several seconds after the voiceover stopped.
not really on the matter of the film but I might as well spurt it out: I'm a Swede who's been living in London and let me tell you the number 1 prejudice about English people we have in Sweden: They're ugly. During my one year in the UK, I was disappointed to find this to be true. If you see a good-looking girl in the UK, she's either Scandinavian or Indian. Yeah, and you actually do have pretty bad teeth, sorry, but it's true. Plus, you're quickly becoming Europe's fattest people (after the Italians, was it?).
Also, a few quick and broad generalisations about Americans (which I've known a bunch and even called some of them friends): They ARE condescending but except for that really nice, a lot more friendly than English people. What's weird about them is that they're like completely nice people but when you start asking them about their political views they tell you they wanna bomb every child and woman in Afghanistan, that if you're pro-abortion you should be shot in the head, that believing in God is the most important thing there is, etc... The only entirely normal American guy I've met lived in Japan... and he was FAT. hehe. OK so I know most people reading this review are American and not necessarily as I described them but whatever. Just my five cents.
... and it's almost scary watching stupid Americans' reviews of this movie, not being able to take a albeit flawed joke but still a joke, and even more scary watching stupid Brits' reviews, thinking this is slanderous towards them..!
the movie had some problems (lip syncing) and most of the jokes were pritty lame but i dont see why half of you cant laugh at some of the american steriotypes .....in my experanses in america there were people like that and there wernt i guess it would be like that in every cuntry
he says right ni the description that they are STEREOTYPICAL americans. god get a grip, stop taking everything so seriously, christ, excellent movie
Everyone is writing hateful reviews about this. I like to say one thing. This kind of humor is used in shows like the simpsons and you all laugh at it. Just because someone is making fun of somebody doesn't mean he means it. When people do stuff about Iraq and you all give it 4's and 5's, isn't that stereotyping? Is it not saying and people from Iraq are terrorist's? Not saying I think that, but all you guys are giving that cartoon 5's and this 0's. Just because we aren't close allies doesn't mean people can insult them like you all think this artist is.
This man/women probably doesn't believe all this, he's insulting both American's and English people in the good sense of comedy. No one can see past the so-so graphics and sound and the type of humor to see the effort he/she put into this? People do this on TV all the time and you laugh, stuff about how "the british have bad teeth" or "Americans are fat and stupid and don't respect culture". Comedians, Cartoons, Talkshows, they all do this. you laugh when they do this. So Don't give this cartoon a 0 based on what you believe, But rather wether it made you laugh or not.
we arent posh or stupid. we are just like americans but without the crazy accents.
good movie, but i probably would have liked it more if i wasnt english but whatever. the 'uck' part was classic!
what can i say? i long for a fridge to keep my food cool, i always fall down my well and to be honest, i'm sick of it.
I think I would've liked it more if I weren't Southern... but a good job, except the animation got out of sync with the sound. Nice job though.
I think alot of the European viewers are misreading this flash...it seems to me its more of a hit against SOME of the people in the United States...being from Canada no one really bashes us nor...really respects us so I'd say we're quite a neutral country...but if some of you idiots are going to actually start arguing about which country is better then the other than you clearly have your priorities mixed up...during a time when the Iraq war and a devastating Tsunami has hit asia you punks are going to argue about who's better the States or England? wow...somethings wrong there...oh and as far as the flash goes...the animation was pretty decent...the sound flat out sucked...and the humor although I'm sure it was intended to be more subtle fell flat...keep trying though cause you almost had something here.
It didnt work for me. I'm also english, but there wasnt enough comedy, nothing much happened and for me at least, yer lip syncing was waaaay out.. and whats with all the whore jokes?!?
it was dumb....i didnt think it was funny, good graphics tho
Being an American I would like to say that I don't like Bush, Wal-Mart, Advertisments (also if they are supposed to be stereotypical they would call them "ads" instead od "adverts"), I hate over commercialization, the War in Iraq mororns driving SUVs. Don't get me wrong, there are definetly Americans like that, but you really don'y have any clue what the majority of us are like. I'm glad you didn't accuse Americans of being ass-holes beacuse they would definetly be hypocritical. Seeing as how you two clearly are ass-holes. I hope that wasn't supposed to be some serious statement, beacuse I didn't really take it that seriously. I also hope it wasn't-either. I would also like to say that I know all of the U.K. isn't like you two beacuse if it was then all of Scottland, England and Ireland would be nations of ignorant assholes. Overall, terrible.
You make fun of the UK, but without them, we'd have no allies, no tea to make iced, and no america *GASPS*!!!!! they r the only thing we got going. and BTW, sallys a transfestite. "She" sounds like a guy. bad
He was making fun of Americans with this movie. I thought the jokes were ok (probably stolen), but the execution was very poor. Bad.
instead of really making fun of the UK this makes more fun of how much americans are ignorant about other countries. Or at least some Americans ie. Britney Spears "I get to go to lots of overseas places like Canada."
But I'm not going to even bother trying, the graphics were ok, and there was some origenality with the idea, since it hasn't been done before (so far as i know). Propably because most people kinda knew shit would hit the fan review wise...
wasnt great, the sound wasnt in sync with the graphics and the jokes kinda sucked.
needs a lot of work.
Lose the i love bush not good
evrything else pretty cool
I gave u like all 10s because of the flag
the best damn flag in the world
Reminds me of some American friends a friend of mine had when he went abroad to study language. almost spot on. Nice touch with the "UCK" part, that one I don't think I heard happen yet lol.
BTW, the sound's out of sync, really needs fixing.
ok flash, needs some work with sound but it had some funny jokes and steriotypes. for all of thos ppl cing this video and being "offended" by it listen up. 1, its suppose 2 be funny dont take it seriously. there IS a steriotype about americans that u r fat, lazy, and no nothing about other countries, which isnt all of u but its just a steriotype; same with people in england, there is a steriotype that u have bad teeth and not as much technology as ppl over here in north america (im from canada). tho this isnt true its just some funny jokes seen all the time, 1 example is Austin Powers. for all u jackasses saying "hey the UK r our allies, dont make fun of them, make fun of iraq or something" u r stupid. they're just starting 4 vote, get an actual government and ur trying 2 make fun of them. hey they're still ppl like u and me. just leave it at that its an ok flash with some funny jokes.
well done, if i had ever made an animation about american tourists, it wouldnt have got much better than that, a lot of them are dumb idolistic, tunnel visioned fucks!
p.s. you didnt point out that our teeth arn't bad. maybe the queens are?? i dunno, but, c'mon, they shouldnt think were all like the queen, what does she do anyway?? and anyway their population of trailer trash probably out numbers the whole of the UK. and have you seen trailer trash teeth?? nuff said
It wasn't so good. The sound was WAY out of sync with the animation first of all.
As for all the steriotyping and the complaints, they're stupid. Not the steriotyping, the complaints. Yeah, it is supposed to be funny like the last guy (from Canada) said. And we Americans make fun of other countries plenty. It's okay if we get made fun of every once in a while.
Although I noticed, Mr. Canada didn't say anything about Canada in his review. Stupid Canuk.
Haha! I'm just kidding.
This isn't funny at all!......the only part i thought was remotely funny was the part where they say they are sponsered by stuff. Over all....................it's piece of shit....with a cherry on top ^_^
True, its alrite. and BTW, we do have a Wal*Mart.. its called an ASDA, you people bought the company from us!
what's that song at the end? It's in my head......and I like it! ^_^

I H8 YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well... I'm sorry to say but the humor in this submission is next to nothing... The sound wasn't so bad but I felt I was watching an Old School Kung Fu movie with the words not corrolating with the visual images of the people speaking... If nothing else, you coulda done the over-the-top act with a couple rednecks telling you about England... Add a little spice to it...
i didnt find anything about this to be funny the voices werent even kind of funny the drawing wasnt anything special just not front page worthy im sorry for being critical but crap needs to be cleaned off the front page
wow THAT SUCKED ASS!!! first that was super rasict( i dont know who to spell it) the quality of the graphics were horrarble. AND THE UK ROCKS.
how true.............
Is it possible that a boy from London has tried to break a funny to us simple minded American folk?
BTW, The reason people from the U.S. are stereotyped as larger people is usually because we don't force feed eachother senior citizen fecal matter, which is what I found to be the common breakfast in the U.K.
Oh man, I could go on and on about how you should be beaten with a large, sharp, metallic, camel shaped object, but damn, this was just to damn stupid for me to care.
these people reviewing it are really pissed off about how it's offensive. dont they know that newgrounds was made by a man who's sole purpose was to make offensive stuff?!?! anyway, the flash itself was ok. it had some parts where I went "hahaha is that how they think of us?". however, teh lip synching was terrible. u definitley gotta work on that.
bonus points for: ACTUALLY being british.
it dosent have the word oi in it i like the word oi MUST HAVE OI!!!!
you know man i acctually stopped watching the movie and picked up a book and read. I READ man. Come on you can do better than that but i gave you a 3 in humor because you said microsoft. I don't think it was offensive just really fuckin slow man.
Cause that just sucked. Oh and for those who say this is racist I hate to tell you it isnt because Ukraine isnt a race, its a country :P Russia kicks ass so dont even bother making any other flashes unless its halfway decent and not produced in an hour with horrible voice and graphics.
What can I say...... I love it : )
but horrid humor. I love makin fun of the good ol' Brits as much as the next boneheaded American, but your flash was seriously lacking in the humor department. Hire someone for your jokes next time.
That movie was alright, but the sound got way off sync.
I don't mind being made fun of, but it just wasn't funny. You pretty much knew what all the jokes were going to be before you even pressed start.
"This is just f***ing awsome omg I watched it 4x"
This is amazing you must watch this.
All My 5 R belong to this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If your an american your vote doesn't count!!!! : ) (unless you give it a 5)
The flash was alright, it wasn't as bad as awhole lot of offended people are making it out to be. People are saying it is racist. For one, America isn't a race, it's a country. Secondly don't be so easily offended, it's just a little joke. There was another flash that made front page if I remember correctly, it made fun of Australians, in somewhat the same way this flash makes fun of Americans, I know there were probably alot of Australians who would have commented on that animation, but they didn't get cut/hurt about it.
Seriously, it was really freaking horrible. The sound wasn't synced with what was going on AT ALL, and it was completely devoid of humour. . .I couldn't even bother finishing it. It was killing too many of my brain cells. :x
Two fat Americans in a horrible flash...its horrible Animations like this that give us a bad name. Please, Stevie, Go to the UK and stay there, or get hit by a bus. Lets all go watch a REAL ANIMATOR, Like NATHAN MALONE or DAVID FIRTH!
i thought your animation was good art was great sound was a little off and i dont know what the last guy was saying he must be retarded
Yeah this was gay i may hate the UK as mutch as any other good American but this was gay i ask that you never make another cartoon and that you take a good long look in the mirror wnd see how dumb you are
closed the window before the end. graphics are sub-par, sound is plain awful, and it just wasnt that funny.
Sound problems and humor was too slow, but overall... funny!
That just wasn't funny. I know im not the first to say this but seriously the voices were WAY out of sync. Plus it just went on too long about basically the same joke. Please stop and think before you smoke pot again. I can get away with it cause im a pimp ass playa but you might want to stick with crack.......or maybye just commit suicide.....yeah.
The art was okay, but as you more then likely know, the sound is off. Wasn't too funny, but I got a laugh out of it.
After reading a bunch of posts, a lot of people seem to think all Americans act like that. Well, a very few of us don't, but a shit load of us do, and those are the dumb asses who voted for Bush to run our country, because he's just as bright as they are.
