"'emo glasses' really made the film for me"
date: April 8, 2007
That loop at the start/end you're using is pretty funky. A good mix of techno and country vibe. But still... DON@T HAVE MUSIC ON THE PRE_LOADER! Why can't you authors realise that some folk will load something, watch something else, load a new thing, watch that thing that just finished loading and so on.
I guess only a minority actually just sit and watch every loading screen. Some like to engage in other things in the meantime and they don't want to have the audio disturbing them.
Anyway... with my connection it's not that big a deal, but it's just a minor irritation and I get annoyed after seeing that same problem so many times. To me it's just a lack of consideration for the audience.
Anyway...
The white line around the play/replay buttons was a tad ugly. Not a good use of the wacky line styles.
Amateur company logos are rarely entertaining and yours was no exception.
In the first scene, you had one set of subtitles that were cut short.
The poster was kinda cool.
Most backgrounds were kinda rough and could be improved a lot.
The characters were kinda cleanly drawn, though the tweening was a tad limited.
In the scenes with the bald guy, his subtitles were almost never on-screen for longer than a second.
When the duder turned emo, that was chucklesome. I also grinned at the "emo+dark room" equation and the duder's lust for hentai.

The 'emo glasses' really made the film for me. Despite some weaknesses up to that point (specially the overlapping voices and overly quick subtitles), that just struck me as brilliant.

Glad you liked it. Yeah, I'm trying much harder on my future submissions.
