This submission was BLAMMED by our users.
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.

*voting 5* Great music vid! :D
"Warning! Because of something Bill Gates did Windows is now screwed up!" Priceless.
Self explainatory (Haha!)
You guys really made a good one here 5/5
I'm not a huge fan of Weird Al but after seeing this flash I might just buy one of his CD's, thanks. Great job, you got the animation down very well. The only thing you might want to fix is the lip syncing. Other than that a great work of art.

i will video myself commiting suicide if this doesnt pass judgment
you have to fix the author bios thingy ;)
good collab, the problem that i dont linke this song is another aspect, nice submission though
First of all that song is one of my favorites.Second everithing was perfect in this collab.And also Volit0,LazyFeet and test-object are very coll people.
Fifen
if i only new earlier i wud hav wanted to join this collab owel =[ but anyway 5/5 i love this song! =D
And a low one at that , I gave you a 1 because nitebirds was the only seriously good submission to this collab , you guys need to each make your own animation and work on your weak spots. Also learn to program and check what youve screwed up before submitting , author bios and credits dont work. Terrible job on collab host :/
i just thought it was awesome. the only thing wrong with it: the suthor bios and credits dont work. it was funny and worth it
good job 9/10
Though some parts need some work on the lip synking. (however you spell it)
i thought that it was well done. i also thought that it could have gone better. there were things that just didn't really look good. but the main menu was the best. I loved that part.
But by no means am I a techno geek or give a shit about niggas and thugs
There were a few problems like that the biographies were screwed up but the flash was well done; good lipsinking.
The only problem i seen where the graphics besides that it was awsome keep them coming :)
I went to look at the Bios, but it zoomed thru. U havent set it on that, so that needs some actionsript.
The Menu first thing I saw I was put in a good mood, nicely done I like the laser pointer. Unfortunately things went downhill from there. The graphics, minus the one person who did it all fbf was pretty average. Nothing really impressed me by graphics. However, the animation was good, lip syncing was good, the song of course was excellent. Also with the menu, when I clicked on Author biographies it just flew past them, along with the credits and went straight to the Extras, when I clicked on Credits, It skipped past them and went to extras, someone forgot the stop(); action script I'm assuming?
Graphics, as I said could be improved but it didn't harm the flash, although brought the score down a little for me.
Style: was unique, for a music video was pretty good, liked the flow.
Sound: good syncing, overall good quality.
Violence: The fake blood at the beginning, that although poorly drawn covered the violence aspect of it.
Interactivity: Liked use of laser pointer in beginning, only flaw mentioned earlier in review.
Humor: Weird Al is the MAN!
Overall: Good Job Team!
I enjoyed it very much. I only have one complaint, when you click on the "bios" section it goes through it super fast and then takes you to the extras section.
Other than that Good job!
This was okay... sort of
it's sad it took you three months though.
i pitty you.
my prayers are with you.
I usually do give good reviews but I have to be a little more critical on this one.
First of all, the graphics were pretty less than average. They were done poorly and it looks as if you all just kind of threw something together. The style for the most part was very repetitive and it made the whole thing incredibly bland.
The song was good of course but even though it was a good and funny song, the actual animation weekend the flash. Lip syncing was sloppy and too out of synch with the song.
The humor again was OK but the flash wasn't very funny... the music was.
I just didn't like it and I think all of you could do much better.
Just practice more on your graphics and your approach.

Hate to say it, but only two or three of the artists in this collab used decent graphics in their animations. All the others… it was pretty sketchy and messy. Shading helps, guys. It does look like many of the parts could use a lot of clean up to make them more aesthetically appealing. Not all of the animation was smooth either.
The menu needs work, as the Bios section is totally ruined if the stop(); on each frame isn’t there. If you’re going to put Bios in a Flash, you need to make sure the whole thing works before submitting. Otherwise, the whole point of it is lost and it would have made the collab better if there was no Bios at all than to have a dysfunctional one.
It’s a learning experience though, I’m sure in one way or another, you guys gained something from doing this together, but it isn’t the top of NG collabs. Don't give up though, you guys will get better in time.
But there's one thing that always gets me about it--he's doing all of these stereotypical nerd things, but then he mentions at one point that he graduated from MIT. If you're an MIT graduate you probably don't have time for stereotypical nerd stuff, you're too busy making $$ or doing research.
okay first of all the graphics studio night bird was the only artist that was actually quite good.
I really like the song but with better art it could have been alot more enjoyable plus the bio's need to be readable because theres no point if you cant read it so i hope you edit this and maybe make a new collab of like "amish paridise" with some better artists so i hope this helped
I'm usually not much of a fan on collabs, but this was pretty good! There was a lot of well done parts to it, and most of them overall went well with the song. Great job guys!
The 'author bios' section fast fowards at light speed making it impossible to read (yes i actually read them)
i still feel sorry for that bunny other than that good job! keep it white and Nerdy PS E= MC2 hehe
I loved it but i have to tell you that your biopage is broke there is no stop; in it.
hey prob wit the bios
when it is clicked it super scrolls through them
plz fix that glitch
again nice collab
good job on this viedo man keep it up
oh, i cant the graphics were very bad and the lip syncing was horrible 1/5
Woah! FUNNY!!!
I really don't see the point in making a spoof on a parody that's a spin-off of ridin' dirty but whatever, graphics could use more detail. I wasn't sure that was a computer until I saw the really badly drawn keyboard, but the size ratio of the people to their surroundings should be adjusted, such as the black guys in their cars that make them look like their riding go-karts.
Well I've seen the posts on the BBS about this and was kinda exited... But I didn't really enjoy it... :-/ It's a shame too, because not only am I a Weird Al fan, but there are some good flash artists who did a good job on their parts, (YoinK, Studio_Nightbird, Test-Object, Lazyfeet and Show-R-Studios) but the rest just didn't really do it for me... :-/ The graphics were bad and the lipsynching was off... Sorry, pains me to say this, but this gets a 3/5... :...(
this was pretty good i guess. only a few ppl seemed to actually get my attention. pretty much yoink, volito, and nightbird. the other artists didnt do that good. their lipsynching was off and their jokes werent that funny. but i give a 10 to yoink,volito and nightbird.
Put a working preloader. But besides that, it was a good flash.
Hardware Store is a great song. And I bet you guys could pull it off, seeing as you made this work of art.
Good job...jerkwads, lol.
Well done best submission i have seen all week. The only constructive criticism i can offer is with the author bios and the credits. If you click on either of them it just scrolls through and moves onto the extras. Meaning you cant view the bios or the credits. Also i wanted to compliment the creator of of the menu section, the laser was a nice touch.
~Dna
I loved it!
It took alout of people to help make it though.
But it was all worth it!
Thx for your submission.
Well I must say this collab was well done. Some parts were a bit bad though, their lip syncing was way off & animation was choppy. I can't believe it's been 3 months since you started this collab, I would've joined this, but I was busy working with the Have A Nice Day collab. Congratulations on 5th place, it was well deserved.
The only reason why this was among the top five is, that you chose White and Nerdy as the song, almost evverybody love Weird Al's White and Nerdy song, so people voted 5 or 4 because of that, but if you guys had chosen to just make a flash without songs in it, I'm sure it woulda been rated a lot lovwer seeing that most of you guys flash skills, well, suck (no offence), only a few parts of this flash was made by good flash artists.
But still, congrats with being number 5
This is pretty cool but I suppose everyone liked it 'cos White and Nerdy is an amazing song so everyone probably gave it a five R. Also it is glitchy in the part when it tells you about the author most of the writing is missing on the right-hand side.
that was a pretty cool collab/animation. this one had a pretty cool idea behind it, gotta love Weird Al music... and the song was naturally perfect for this one here, the drawings of all the 'white n nerdy' characters were pretty good as well, offered some pretty cool entertainment and everyone who contributed to this one did a pretty good job.
good work ont everyone and congrats on winning an award.
Yea I thought we did a pretty good job on this. We should have made adjustments with certain graphics but other than that it was fun to help put together. It had a nice flow for the most part.
Nice!!! This was awesome! Weird Al's awesome! Definetly a 5 out of 5!
Dude that was freakin' sweet
Wow! Good job to all of you who worked on that flash! :)
It was good flash and everything... it's just that the real video used all the same jokes so it was hard for me to laugh again. Anyway, keep making cool flashes like this...
It's just that some of the authors didn't have very good lip syncing.
i'm fuckin' and i mean fuckin' wite and nurdy and also the last part wase grate and i like men i like to drill em and i am a guy and im gay (why else would i play rune blank)
Now I am a huge fan of weird al, and most of all white and nerdy, and I love his work, But I don't mean to be mean, but you guys turned it into a peice of ****!!! Now there where a good share of talented authors in there, but i'm not gona say who becouse that whould make the others look bad. The reason it wasn't good is becouse more then half of the shows graphics where bad, the lip singing was horible, it just made you look like you put music over a flash, and the flash isn't even producion the sound through cartoon lips. And a good majoriety of it is just some white/nerdy guys standing there singing ( badly ), realy not doing much of anything the song is talking about. Also there lacked a lot of backround, more then half of the callab had no backround, just a lot of square colors or dots, for crying out loud put computer room, classroom, or libery in the backround to give it some taste and surrounding. Well thats all I have to say, sorry about having to bad mouth your callab, I usually never say bad things about someones work.
I really like the song and the flash is ok but you ruined weird al yankovich's original video. the original is much better and you have just copied a lot of it in what looks like a hurry. There were way too many corners cut for the amount of authors. How many of the authors are actually white 'n' nerdy?!?
This isnt a very good music video the lip syncing is off, a good part doesnt make much sence and the saddest mistake I saw was when he says rotflol the writing on the screen said RO' you should have made sure everything was synced and working b4 I submitted it
This was a nice flash, good old Weird Al. You have a pretty good, classic animation style.
But then again, what do I know?
~im going to review this as if i didn't make it~
the good
the menu was greate and all. so was the animations. i also like to song DUH. and stuff
the bad
some of the people kinda rushed there part and didn't really put to much detail to it
improvments
not to rush. alway and ALWAYS check the intire flash before uploading. i noticed that when you hit play you hear 'Well' from the extras.
final comments.
FRONT PAGE WOOT. well done guys. happy to of taken part in this collab and i'll see you all in the BBS or in another collab
~studionightbird~
awsome you guys did great keep up the good work
But I'm not just going to say "yu guys ar so sh*t dnt eva make flash agen"
Fact is, the video Weird Al made for this song is tonnes better tan this.
Some issues I had were that some of the clips didn't seem to understand the joke they were depicting and portrayed it wrong.
There was a lot of obvious "I can't be bothered to animate properly" resulting in things like "E-mc2" being backwards on one guys' hat.
If you're going to do a collab, make sure the people you collaborate with are going to do it properly. This looks rushed, unfinished, and nprofessional.
Sorry to be so negative, but at least I didn't say "That was wank"
Good luck next time.
This wasn't anything too great or interesting.
Gave graphics a 5 cuz most the animation was really choppy and the lip syncing was off.
Style was a 6 because it's like the only White n' Nerdy flash for the Weird Al section. On the downside, just about each artist basically had the same thing. White guy, then gangster. White guy, then gangster.
Sound was a 10 cuz the song you put in was of good quality.
Violence, a 1. The only "violent" ( which quite sucked ) was running over a freakin rabbit. It was totally random and the rabbit was off subject I guess.
Interactivity got a 6 since there was extra crap. They weren't all that good and in my opinion was a waste of time.
Wasn't funny- 0 for that.
Overall I gave a 6. Use a little more effort next time.
Most of those artists really need to work on their lip sync stuff... 2/5
that was a great flash, i need to get flash one of these days. it was made like a pro. good job guys
Shite, this was crap. Pretty much all the animations were the same, same style. The only section i liked was the anime style animation.
You stuffed up the ActionScript for the laser pointer at the beginning as it kills the mouse throughout the whole animation, making it damn near impossible to mouse over the replay button, if you were wanting to put yourself through the torture of watching that again.
The only thing that kept me watching was the music, i love this song.
It's definitely wasn't the worst though. It could have been much better. I believe if you didn't accept a few crappy submissions than this would have been better.
This collab needed structure and limits. Not any crappy submissions should of been accepted. The only parts I really liked were Volito, LazyFeet, and my favorite one studionightbird.
Eh, good luck on further collabs. Keep working at it.
-Rudyyy
Normally when things are redone, they are redone better. I think that Weird Al's video is much funnier than this. Also, there is absolutely no oringinality. Most of these scenes are almost replicated from the real music video. This was probably not a good song to do a collab on. Check out the BYOB collab, thats sweet. Props to Pezboy, I liked his stuff the best, but thats about it.
You know...if there wasn't already a music video for this song, this might've actually been a good idea...
And, yeah, it wasn't too good...if you're going to make a collab, try to find people with a little more talent and experience with flash, please.
The effort was there. The heart was lacking. The soul was missing.
Well i thought it would be pretty good cause this is one of my favorite songs by him but it wasnt, most of the animation was poorly drawn and none of the mouths seemed to move in sync. Now i know this is a collab and so not all animation will be great but just i think i only liked about 3 scenes in it. For the most part i just think that its funnier if you watch the real music video because its just like this but (of course) better.
The lip syncing didn't match up, most of the scenes were basically plagiarized from the original music video, and the graphics for the most part were not good quality, style not withstanding.
Also, just because Its a collaboration doesn't necessarily make it any better than if one person had thrown it all together.
-DK
it would of been good it this came out like 2 months ago.. i think when ever that acuall video was all cool and popular but that song is now just dead nice effort but took to long to create and was it really neccisary to make it a collab i bet if you did this by urself it would of been reasleaed a month ago i was a good try but a bit late
it's kind of decent, but Awsome. Weird Al is the Greastest Proformer in history.
none at all.... seriously, maybe i dont klnow... no sound
I think it was ok, the song is funny though, but you changed the graphic very often and i know that's because all the authors have different ways of making characters in Flash. But good work.
I can't hate the music but I didn't like the graphics. I know there were many of you making the video but it made it look kind of bad adding all
these different types of style. Try to keep it in one style so it can run more smoothly. Also - More movement in the characters. They looked kind of.... solid.
I'm sorry, but this just wasn't very good. I did like the menu; I thought the pointer was a nice touch, but after that it was all downhill. Between poor lip-synch, mostly horrible animation, and lack of humor (I love that song, but listening to it while watching this actually made it less funny) makes me really wonder what kind of drugs were involved when this made front page. Mind you, it's better than half the crap in the portal, but it's still a 3 at best. And being marginally better than a pile of crap isn't much to be proud of.
I can't explain why this is on the front page at all. The other Weird Al song parodies were excellent. This is just... terrible. I think Tom was a little hasty to put this up on the front page.
In general, the animation was ridiculously choppy, and the humor was ruined by bad visuals. If you're going to make a collab, try harder.
Graphics - Lots of diffrent artists and styles. The one with the guy in the white suit brought this up a lot.
Style - Like graphics, just done before.
Sound - You had a song, and little static.
Violence - For the bunny
Interactivity - Semi extensive menu
Humor - ONE!!! good joke. >_> The red bandana that said "E=MC^2"
Overall - Nothing overly suprising or intresting. Hope you do better next time.
When making something like this, I would compare it to the real music video before making it public. Maybe if you came up with new jokes to put in. You really needed something new, because of how funny the song and video were. You need to keep trying, I see good things if your future, keep up the good work.
/Not really front page material
i think most people are missing out on its a collab and why does the video have to be different from the weird al music video.using the same jokes and all makes it solid
i dont think its posed to be a parody seeming as weird al is a parody in itself
the gfx coulda been done better yes but not really horrible considering its 3 diff peoples styles
also the lip synching was the joke cause guess what..in most music videos they play an already recorded track and they do lip sync there own music.the fact that the lip sync didnt match up i think is making fun of the fact that people are forced to lip sync in music videos
personally if i was in a band,i would ask for no lip syncing i would do it raw so the video sounds a lil diff from the cd and perhaps even better =O
stop hating for a good effort
Good, but the preloader didnt even work.
simply because theres already an awesome video for this song that cant be beat... sorry but the animation was bad and the graphics werent to great, with the exception to the dude who done the fbf, but yeah... good luck
The thought behind it was good, but honestly there could have been a bit more effort into it. 50% wasnt synced well, graphics were.......well i dun wanna talk about graphics. Like i said, the intention was good and it looks like it had portential, but it just got slapped together. All in all this just doesnt do Wierd Al justice. 2/5 here and i gave you a 10 on sound just because I love the song.
The only decent part about the movie was Studio-R-Studios part i think if he had made his own series it would be very good he has drawing talent and animation talents.
yeah, really didnt like it... rips everything off the music video, who did it 100e+0e7 times better... and err.... I suppose i didnt like it for the same reason i didnt like Xeno tactics... it was a rip and wasnt original
nice work tho for a collab
I'll give you cred for the animation =]
I'd say ur nerds but i think nerds could make a good animation.
You guys need to practise your drawing a bit....
I gave u 10 sound bcos i like wierd al yonkavic
But i dislike the animation sorry im not being offensive this is simply constructive criticism :)
i will say this collab was pretty pitiful, there is alot of potential in alot of the animators you had on board. maybe clean up the graphics, and add some detail and touch ups here and there, and your on ur way to some pretty amazing flashes. good work, just needs alot of improvement
the word didnt match the mouth and song is kinda old now and it wasent as good as it could have been. sry guys
The song was good, but you need to study up on your lip syncing. It looks like a poorly tranlated japanese movie.
I came in ready to give fives all around and was just stunned by how bad this movie was. It looks like everyone spent literally 15 seconds on these parts.
In a project like this, all the material is already made for you and all you have to do is animate it but the images were just awful.
Okay, I'd say the original White and Nerdy is WAY better, if i'd have to give scores then it'd be the original 10 and you guys 3, really, alot of the animations didn't got to do shit with the song and some were just ugly, sorry.
Omg, i hate to say it, but that straight up disgraced that song...
The parts were mostly god awful, althoug there were a couple nice ones in there, not many though...
I know you guys worked hard, but it just didn't work at all...
I really don't get you guys. I mean it wasn't incredible but it was decent. I laughed a bit. The animations we're fine, they look like everything else I see on newgrounds. What makes this so bad? I mean I watched it and I was impressed with the laser pointer and ect. You guys went really hardcore on this.
The sound quality was terrible though, you shouldn't of condensed it or whatever.
For my animation class i did over half the song myself, and it was a little better than some of ur guyses parts, but i only posted it on my myspace, cause i never finished it. Some of the parts were pretty well animated and drawn, but others were only so-so.
hahaha! nice collab! Wierd al Rawks! 9/10
eh, ok song wuz good, but i expected bettr. graphics werent good. main point is that there are much better colabs than this
Most of the parts in this animation were - sorry to say - Terrible!... Tweens all round, god awful fbf and what the hell was that lip syncing?!?! It looked like you guys put a 4 year old in charge of that part.
The standards for collabs being front paged are really low... If i knew it would be THIS easy, I would of jumped on the "Hey, lets all animate Weird Al's songs cause they're funny =P" bandwagon too. DO SOMTHING ORIGIONAL!........ Christ.
Damn... Try harder.
- KoLdBLooD
Ok I have to admit.... Most of you guys need to relearn how to lip sync. I know I cant talk because I cant even make a flash but still... Two artists and some tricks saved you from a definate 0. Not trying to be mean here... I see great flash artists out of all of you. Cant wait to see how you guys do next round.
I like how I was the only person left out of the author list on newgrounds but I'm in the flash. What's up with that if any MODs are on please insert Madcat123 into the list. I basicly just got robbed of a daily 5th place award. This was supposed to be my first submition into the portal and now thanks to someone not puting me in I have to finish my other dang project just to get one item in the portal.
GOD!
its not horrible, ill give you that. It's a fairly creative idea, you just, portrayed it in a bad way. Seeing as how lip movements didn't match words, (they were just looped animations) and the changing profile styles wasn't very... easy to follow, cuz everyone had their own idea of the song....
lol u have my fav song and it's funner then crap^^
good going to all who made this flash
...what better way to show just how white and nerdy you are than watch an online flash video of "White and Nerdy", then write a review for it?
The guys laser pointer doesn't move on the start menu.. I think it was supposed to?
Mouse doesn't appear when I look at bios..
But good stuff Volit0, others. ;D
The only one of you that's got any talent is, in fact, is studionightbird. All the rest of you... well...
Um...
You guys can....
You... you....
....
Anyways, it was painful to watch, and to be frank, did NOT deserve front page. I suppose the song would have been enjoyable to listen to, had it not been for the fact that the animations in this movie seemed to shutdown my central nervous, turning my into a being comparable in intelligence to that of a head of lettuce. In fact, I think this could be undeniable proof that internet movies are capable of causing cancer.
If your going to spew, don't do it in the portal. People watch this stuff.
Theres no good way to sugar coat this but for all the guys in the creaters box you'd think it wouldn't have discraced this song so much
The animation was....odd. And not just from the different styles. It was choppy, and badly put together.
i liked studio nightbirds
I'll admit, that was not the most polish flash I've ever seen on this site. But it was not bad- I've seen much worse. Why, look at this, for instance.
http_:_/_/_........w.....w....
....w ....newgrounds... com/portal/view/369457
I have no idea what it sets out to accomplish, and quite frankly, I think that it really has nothing TO accomplish.
But your collab has a point, and it sees it through to the end. While a lot of the animation needs definite work, it's really, areally quite good from what I've seen, and compared to some of the crap I've seen, it's damned polished.
The lip syncing can use some work, I'll admit, but this is offset by the care put into each segment- the humor, the personality, it's all there. You guys set out to make a collab that was different and yet the same- you each had your own idea of what this should be in your heads, and you made your bit that way. And while it sometimes doesn't work, it does for the most part.
It's a good collab, and the people here need to stop being so critical. Just because it isn't perfect or as polished as other collabs (The Feel Good Inc. Collab, for example), doesn't mean it sucks. In fact, this is one of the creams of the crop.
In short, please keep making movies. You all have shown great talent, and you show possibilities of increasing that talent exponentially.
I love weird Al, and this movie fits the song perfectly. There was some bits that were superior to others, as IN EVERY FU=·$"·$ COLLAB I´ve seen, however they were all good.
Excellent flash, enjoyed it a lot.
PS: I agree 100% with the guy that reviewed just before me.
It really seem like the majority of the collaborators didn't put much effort into this collab. I also didn't see the purpose of making a music video collab when Weird Al has already made a great music video to his song already.
Good Luck with future endeavours.
Ya know... i rli liked this... Usually collabs turn out like poop but this one turned out quite well.
well there are a few points i loved,
Music = Ace xD
Extras = lmao
Animation = Nicely done ppl
Whole thing = I vote... 5 :D
Keep it up guys, this was kool
~* Tyrix *~
at the time when it went'spend every weekend at the renisonce fair, got my name on my underwere!' it played that screen over and over again and also the music cut out.
to be honest i dont like writing negative reviews but this collab had moments of hyper-sloppy ness. don't get me wrong i liked it =] and studio night bird is offensively good. the thing is alot of parts seamed effortless, especially alot of the lip sync. frozen fire part was great but lazy feet was lazy. it looked nice but not much happened D: volito wasnt bad. yoinks part was sloppy as hell though =[.
over all, bugged but preety nice, work harder next time =D
Despite the fact I personally hate people who remake things without offering a satyrical or otherwise funny slant; this was sloppy and poorly presented. Ontop of this it was less funny than the normal video clip, and a remake should be better, if it is to be made at all.
The original movie was better, besides, the only person who did anything good was Lazyfeet.
GRA- Sucked, no offence but they did
STY- None what so ever
SOU- 10 as its weird Al =3
VIO- None
HUM- Put some effert into it
Overall- You guys seriously have to put some effort in if you wanna create a flash with such a great song. It seems to me that you've rushed it so much. Sit down and think of what you've done...
not bad
The song is good, but you can't get credit from that. The animation was pretty bad. Some was good and others funny. But over all nothing that good. The point of making a music video is having a good (funny, or violent or some other category) and making it really apply with the music. It just didn't happen here.
I was very dissapointed with this video. It basically played the same scene over and over again. There could have been so much more going on. It didn't work. Some of the referrences, which were really funny and the best parts of the song, were not touched upon or were confused. A little research on nerdiness (like the Steven Hawking part...he writes books so he wouldn't be in your music library, he would be in your bookcase) and further editing (including closer collaboration so it isn't so repeditive) would make this really awesome. I loved the newgrounds connection, though. It made me smile.
Al's video was perfect, why would you do a collab for it??? I dont think this came close to being as good as his. Still it was alright.
i like the song!!!!!!
I especially for some reason liked nightbirds section. Make more im looking forward to it.
geez, this many people can do way better, im sorry it just sucked good luck (you'll need it) next time.
But ive seen worse on the front page. I mean dont get me wrong it was good its just there was a few things that annoyed me ie. the lip synching on most parts. Maybe this had to do with a big file size but none the less it got on my nerves. The lip synching tutorials on the super flash bros site are really good (maybe not for a music vid) but still worth checking out. I think "yoinK" wins best animator. His graphics were a nice change from the paint brush tool and they looked good enough for a tv cartoon. The sound quality was a bit dud. Maybe raise the bit rate quality (i think thats what its called) when you export. Although this does raise the file size.
Anyway ive crapped on for too long.
Bottom line: Decent tutorial, nice job, weird al pwns!
Very nice job on the collab guys! I enjoyed this flash and all the different styles in it. Add in the fact that the song is by Weird Al and you have a badass product!
Pretty good collab... not as great as some other animations I've seen, but pretty good nonetheless.
(Incidentally, <3 to studio nightbird. I was very impressed.)
I have seen better collabs, and personally, I like the original music video better. It was ok for the most part but when the ppl tried singing it failed
yeaah it was kinda funny and pretty great for all the ppl workin on it..could be a little better thp XD
this is so awsome im playing it as many times as i can woot woot
oh yah dont talk about bracies mine snoop dog had them most rapers 2 (i like Snoop Dogg the most :}) they all had braces befor grills a grill you need straight teeth and i have them ther gold lol make more like this um like the other ones
I'm reviewing to cover up Skybert's review. This was a overall entertaining collab, most of the artists I haven't heard of before. Some of the parts needed to work on the lip syncing and there was a few graphical errors like the person's hand that needed to be colored in. Lazyfeet's part was my favorite. :)
Great job guys, and congrats on the front page.
(PS: The extras were funny. The bios were well put together, except it would be nice if you could see your mouse when you're trying to move to the next artist.)
ok now i wasnt a fan of most of the graphics but for some reason the blonde hair guy appeased to me maybe because if he wasnt pale he probably could roll wit the gangsters lol but overall really good flash guys & i liked the way u killed the bunny lol it was funny
Thats the least impressive collab I've ever seen. Not original in the least, half of the scenes were just poorly animated versions of the original music video for White N' Nerdy. Yawn. This is only on the front page cause thats a wicked song.
i loved this it was asmome love running over the bunny and that 1 guy with the cam spining around him that was good anamation
guy be hind me ur just jelis ur not good at flash
5/5stars
i liked it a lot its going on my faves
Its better than half of the stuff in the flash portal but its overall a poor presentation. Only studionightbird and volito(in some parts) showed extremely good animation... otherwise this flash as a whole was a bummer. It even got me bored in some parts :S and for a song like this that shouldnt even be possible.
Some parts that obviously were lipsynced were put into the flash at an offset time that didnt even match the words...thats just being brutal to the animator who did those parts. Some of the animation barely surpassed doodles.
I would think the leader of the collab would need to be a bit more selective in which animators he chooses to use animations for for the final version of his production, rather than most if not all that tried out.
3/5
Peace,
Coolio-N
Good Points: Great animation in some parts (very brief), great song.
Bad Points: Terrible animation most of the flash. Lip syncing was off most of the time, animated portions were repetive and boring, overall a massive let down, I was expecting something well put together.
This was bad.
well i thaught it was ok but its just i dont no it didnt apeal to my liking but put those skills to somthing a little funneyer and u may yery well have a hitt good job though.
What an awesome song... The graphics swap every-so-often i can understand... loads of artists... Nice extras... Nice artwork, Stuido_nightbird , Pezboy440, Test.Object, Yoink, Madcat and Voltio, The best artwork in the entire song... Really great song guys, one problem... Pezboy440, why did you run over a bunny rabbit?
But the music was way to loud or to high quality...
I'm not a computer freak so i don't know what's wrong!
I couldn't hear much of what they sang so i didn't understand much of the jokes in it... >.<
This is a mediocre collab, the animation simply did not cut it. Look at a different submission for a Yankovic song, like Albuquerque, and you will see how well the lip sync and animation can be done. This was made worse by the fact that the song already has a music video (watch it on YouTube now if you haven't already done so) which really can't be bettered.
Nice menu though.
Almost everthing was poorly made. Got really bored very easily.
It really was a let down.
Graphics: The only part which was actually good was the one which was entirely Frame by Frame, the rest sucked terribly.
Style: Lacks in style.
Sound: Counting the music as the sound it was pretty OK.
Violence: WOW, i Pwn3d a BunNy Lolz!!1!
Interactivity: It had a menu.
Humor: The song was funny, whilst the flash was not.
Overall: 5.66666666.....66667. Because it is the average of the other scores.
When you get to the part that supposed to be Roflol on the screen, Ro only appeared, Perhaps you intended this to be that way if so I dont know why because why put RO, if not then just letting you know thats something to fix.
I thought It was cool to see someone do a paraody of a paraody, I love white n' nerdy. But I think you could have done better with your video, like I realize it was intended to be fast paced just like the actual video so it is hard to put certian things in, but to go back on stuff like, javascript and klingon, and at the point where he's playing ping pong, have his opponent be a klingon, or something like that. I thought maybe when you had the rims part, if you had the car with stationary rims chillin and Xzibit came up and was like This ride needs to be Pimped! that would of added to the humor. All in all I still enjoyed it but I'd like to see if you could make a collab remix and try to make a better video. If you ever make flash and need suggestions or a tester msg me.
sorry, but this video isn't really original. some parts were similar from the video, except this video seemed kinda worse than the original video. also i couldn't really understand this video. I understood more in the original video. try and make something better
I have to say, that was the worst lip syncing job I've ever seen. I mean, it was a colab, and almost everyone sucking at syncing. And plus, the whole riding dirty/white and nerdy thing is getting worn out... not really funny anymore. Next time, don't spend so much time on something over used.
as a drunk viewer of this collab i feel i am the lowest common denominator. so here goes. the animation could use some work for pretty much all of the contributors, the sound was awsome as i am a former weird al fan, the uhmor was a little too childish for my taste, and the violence level was very low as the only casualty in the entire video was a bunny. overall ill give it a five, but mostly because of my enthusiasm for weird al.
Usually collabs have one or two good parts at least. This had absolutely none of the sort. The animation was terrible and the thing as a whole wasn't entertaining. Also, peoples watermarks covered alot of the screen. What the hell?
That was probobly the worst submission to be submitted seriously. The funniest part to that submission was the song itself.
i think it was all gd. evry1 hu thinks this was crap don't know a good flash. i think showrstudios and studio nightbird have some real potencial
needs more polishing
you didnt fix all the errors. my cursor disappears in the bios section.
GET RID OF THE FRIGGING AUTHORS NAMES! THEY'RE DISTRACTIONS!! besides, you have them in the credits. The only thing i truly enjoyed was the main menu. nice work on that.
it was okay,but just fix the graphics.I mean,they SUX
i like this movie its cool and i like the song white n nerdy.
~GOOD POINTS~
For starters, many have already complained about most of this, so I'm going to shed some light on to the subject, Really, not a bad a flash, the song *White N Nerdy* by Weird Al is a great song, you made a great flash to go with the song itself, So there it rocks. The style was very similar to the parody itself, therefore not getting a higher rate than 7, not fully original. The humor of the song and the flash itself WAS good, believe it or not, so therefore it got some humor marks.
As for the good points there are always bad points...
~BAD POINTS~
The lip syncing was terrible, wasn't good at all, mostly this let the flash down slightly, some of the graphics were off, And I could tell you could have done *ALOT* better with the graphics, I think some of the graphics and lip syncing need polishing a bit.
~OVERALL~
Not a bad flash, most of the fuckers who have said, 'OMG IT'S TEH SUX CUZ OF THE FUCKING LYP SYNC' Can suck my balls, I'd like to see you do just as good, if not then; stop fucking complaining, Don't get me wrong, the flash wasn't the greatest ever, but it was good, not bad; but good.
I'd still like to see some of the graphics improved + Lip sync.
Besides that, good job on this guys; I guess.
~MLD~
I really enjoyed it,
cause you got front page i guess people will be slamming you for all the bad points but i found it quite funny and enjoyable.
:)
That is sweet! Like your style.
This is great, great job! 'I got stephan hawkings in my libary', good thats goofy but funny! Gave ya a 2 for violence just for the rabbit getting ran over. Nice job, screw all the other guy's dissing this, you did well.
Wicked, 'dog!
Ha ha
love the collage.
it's pretty friggin' awesome,
haha im sure weird al would be proud
to c hiz song go 2 good use.
:D
dana aka token
This is just horrible. The character design is stupid, (Those gangsters look like two year olds) The lip synch is plain horrible, an the song is ruined.
man what you just said is so hard.
are they really 11??
what does it matter???!
it rules!
im giving a overal of 10.
its just cool.
keep on this work.
but make more frames for the lips.
wel.
plz answer this chat XD
gtg bye.
Thats was great.
Old song,
still great.
i like how you had several different artist in the flash.
makes it more interesting.
2 bad guys, it sucks. I liked Al in the loader though. the movie was not dynamic and looped. the mouths where lagging and didint really say the words. I know its hard to do a good animation to such a fast song and express it right but this is crap. try again
wasn't really funny. ya could do better
so i like this. it could be could better tho.
but the synchronization was all off, one second it matches and the next it doesn't, the graphics were ok and the sound had little to be desired, but all in all it was pretty good
Daily 5th?! Is that all! It was better than that!
This was actually really good! I liked all the areas of the collab(especially Madcat's and Stuido_Nightbird's parts)
I think studio-nightbrid was pretty good in the collection Ithink he was the best not drawn by mouse. Loved his animation others were alright but nightbrid 5/5 most of the others flash creators is made by mouse like 90% of them.
it was good.. funny as well....
And studio-nightbrid part looked good. not 2 put any1 else off
I think some people tried too hard to lip-sync, cause about 2 peoples parts were just a guy singing (no originality there) And it looked HORRIBLE!!!. I think madcat was one of them...
I liked it otherwise though, 4/5
man, where did you find such funky latin beats
I would like to point out a few things, Madcat, when you flip the image in your scene the E=MC2 gets flipped and reads backwards. On another note, Yoink, no offense but your animation is really bad, I hope that you guys will fix these "problems".
P.S. Other than the problems I listed everything was great, make another flash.
-GOD
Overall a great video, and the extras were pretty good. Some individual things could have been better, but I won't go there. Studio_Nightbird had an awesome section, I only wish it could have been long. And the part in the extras where he asks "What is my motivation" could have started the video pretty good.
I already love the song and what you guys did made it better!
Some things ofcourse could have been better but the vid made me smile and that makes it all good!
the song is great and u did a weird al on weird als song lol u made fun of the backgrounds well anyway loved it hope u do it on other songs too
Love it. Well done.
The animation could use a little tweaking other than that it was great keep up the good work.
The animation is awsome and funny jsut as the song is!!
Very good, quite funny too.
I would suggest, though, that you stick with one person, rather than having lots of different 'White Nerds'.
Other than that, excellent.
It just wasn't that funny - Al nailed it with his own video; anything else is second-rate.
this was a very well put together collab i say you all did great.
thats really good but the show-r-studios dude {blonde hair dude with nerdy written on his hand and got banned from the site and blowsup} looked cool he didnt look like a nerd well.... james rolf {AVGN} doesnt look like a nerd either but hes a game nerd and funny as hell
This Song is pretty good and this vid brought no shame to it those people are retarded DUH ITS A WEIRD ALL SONG READ THE DESCRIPTION RETARD!!!
I give it an 8/10 for being awesome
This is my Fav Song but Volito u should improve i like Nightbirds in overall its a pretty good flash
tommorow i am givnt this a 5! watch it!
i LOVED volit0's and frozenfires animations! i liked all the others and i HATED the crappy one in the front by Pezboy440 and the one at the park by Yoink
I think this is the best music video on NG. All of them except for yoinks were really good.
'Some of it was good, but the rest had crappy animation.
I especially liked StudioNightbird's part.
good music and idea, but animation was crappy. especaily when he was bobin his head and his mouth was in the same place
Well, having been introduced to this particular Weird Al song last year and finding it quite fun, I knew what to expect more or less when coming into the flash today.
I wasn't disappointed. Some good visuals to accompany it from you guys, good collab all around.
PI! Hell yeahs. Hardcore. "see me roll on... my Segway..." hahahaha... love that part of the song. Two highlights right there, can't be beat.
On the whole, I think I like Volit0's visual style the best. And he got teh ROTFLOL part of the song, too. Lucky bastich!
Nice Blue Screen of Death.
BUBBLE-POPPIN' ACTION.
Great character design, Yoink, just as with that Karate Kid collab.
In fact, guys, I have just one criticism, really: The red laser pointer cursor on the menu is a great touch, but it disappears and the regular mouse cursor doesn't come back if you go to the Bio page. At least, no cursor was visible for me. Aside from that? Yer golden.
The animation was not that great
i remember the first halo video me and my friends made on xbox live it was a music video for this song we were known as point blank pro you might find our video around somewhere but i though tthis was pretty good
The song was great. But the animations really let it down and the lip syncing was horrible. but overall an okay video.
I thought it was so good, i wasted 30 minutes watching it over, and over, and over!
The song was pretty good. Well you cant really change it while calling it weird all. But the animation was uhh not my fav
I thought it was funny. The extras were pretty funny to.
I like the song but the video wasnt the best
IT LOADS BUT IT WONT PLAY ;_; :( =(
You must not have a new enough Flash Player.
Just use google to find a site to download FlashPlayer9c or whatever it is called nowadays...
not bad... could still use a lil touch up but still good.
I admit... it is pretty good... but it is still kinda shaky for my tastes. The music was good (you cant go wrong with Wierd Al :P ).
It was funn. it was pretty god. my 5-er dosen't belong to this
Could have done a lot more with a song like this to me. I mean, not bad for effort, but yeah. could have illustrated a lot more of the jokes in the song.
Flat-out average.
Everyone was really good, except a couple. The one that i have a proplrem is madcat. I dont give 2 shits that he was on for like. . .8 seconds, but he was WAY off from what the song was talking about. I mean, the "rapper" pulled out a handgun when the song says he only has a fucking sottering gun!!! He was also rapping when the song says he is NERDY!!! Get the whhole song into your fucking head. I suck at drawing, but YOU are one of the WORST! Even those dumbass kitty krew fuck heads can draw better then you. I also dont care if that was you very first flash you made, you absolutly SUCK!!! Every one else was good though. . . : )
are you all relly white'n nerdy and if you are then lol
How to put this. In a parallel world you are the best artist ever. However that guy who got mad for being banned looked pretty cool so.... 1 star.
Dont try to sync lips if you cant otherwise it looks really stupid
The real White n' Nerdy is much better. But better than the lego White n' Nerdy. P.S. Whoever banned the one guy, too bad, too sad XD
lol i new thatsong was going to beonthere i love that song lol how do umake videos any way ?
"A" for effort, but if you've seen the original video dont watch this.
Good, but so off of the original video. 3 for effort, 5 for the actual video. Not saying it's bad, it's just a little off.
good flash, just make sure your loading bar works next time.
The mouths & the words were at times WAAAY off, at other times a little off
awsome and i love the song too keep up the good work
Error: Your Banned, Because ur nerdy!! lol
I'm not a nerd because I don't wear glasses. But I love this song. I don't too much care for the original song, though. Another reason Weird Al is awesome.
This should totally be in the top 50, why the hell does vote less than 5
Friggin C00L Dudz
can only go so far
and try to get their mouth right next time
But other than that good job
i've seen his Mario flash and i didn't like it, but after watching this, i think either his flash skills have improved greatly over 2 years or it's because a whole shitload of people worked on this. oh yeah, and that intro music is from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire on the first task. Lip syncing can improve but i think overall it was good.
Though, I would like it if you made another one with more artists (Legendaryfrog maybe? He makes great flash vids...), better graphics, and subtitles!
I can't believe people would give this any less than a 10/10
nightbird is the best 1 here woot
to tell the truth that was kinda stupid.
This was a classic and still extremely Funny,i wish i would be able to give it 1000000 stars but they only have 10.
Your supposed to review on the work! I'm quite tired of idiots reviewing the movie and saying it "was stupid" and give 0 or 1 star. Don't bother writing the review if you have nothing to say. Writing that something is stupid tells the author(s) nothing. You want to play critic, then critique. You want to be an ass, go back to watching hentai.
This work was great. The syncing was bang on, the film was slippery it was so smooth. Work like this is what got me involved in flash in the first place. 5/5 10/10.
Pretty funny but it looks like you could have done better with the lip syncing.
Otherwise, Nice job.
P.S.
YoinK's was the best.
SeeingIsDenying, I'd think that Studio_Nightbird's was the best. But that's just me.
A good collab of a very...Well, I'll be frank, it's not the best Weird Al song ever.
very funny!
i like that song a lot it's old but the video clip on tv of it was very good too.
this collab was very good and i say congrats to you all for making it.
good graphics, funny nerds and a good song
here is a big 9 for you! keep it up!
you asked on my account if i wanted to review some, so here is a review.
I love when a group of artist will get together for a collab. this was fun to watch but two big thigs marked this as rushed. 1) some of the timing was for towards the end. 2) when the subject would turn the art was just flipped so it was a mirror image. (ex. Pocket protector and E=mc2 on headband.) but this was really fun to watch 4/5
It was good, and I thought it was a well put together flash. I really like the song and the original video. The thing is, this flash is very much like the actual video but not quite as good. I think that if this flash distinguished itself from the original and made it seem more fresh and unique then it would have been better. Judging from the actual flash though, the only complaints I can give is that the lip synching was off badly and a lot of the animations didn't match up with the music on time as they should have done.
The video was awesome the song was awesome... This is my favourite song from weird al!
SUPER TERRIFIC HILARIOUS AWESOME RAGANOMIC GOOD GREAT NICE INSANELY MIND BLOWING
Well this was also really coo!
Pretty good...some of the content in here was modeled a bit after the actual music video. Great song to collab on.
This one is really good! The song is funny, and the video makes it more funny! :D My only complaint is the lip-syncing on some of the parts.
5/5
10/10
- GlowingMonkey
i prefer the real video on youtube cos ur lipsyncin was rubbish and altogether this video wasn't as funny
But I really didn't think this was funny, or well done. It's nice to see a bunch of authors coming together like this, but I'm not a fan of this entry.
Lip syncing Was horrable im sorry
but i cant give al a 0....
this video altough presents many animation styles, was kind of boring. no real action was presented in it. and no humor either, wich is weird for a weird al vid.
the intro's quality was awful, but the main menu was nice. the bios have a problem. you cant see the mouse at all, you have to guess where it is.
the lipsinch is awful in most clips. nightbird is the only one that made an excelent part in all aspects. also test object was awesome.
yoinks style is awesome. I like it
overall 6/10. why? because only few made parts that were amusing in quality
Moderateley interesting.
Not great. Decent, but not great. Nothing really caught my attention.
That bunny got OWNED. Oh, and in one part his hat says E=MC2, but when he turns around, the E=MC2 does too.
I like the song because I like wierd al and think he is the funniest guy on earth! Also the song describes me. :)
THIS IS SO AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!! p.s. i relate to the guy with the e=mc2
wow that was the best thing iv'e seen on newgrouns ever
it's good made 10/10 stars
I love it!!! especially the blue error screen!!!
but I love the song! (Note:Kirk was the better captain)
That was with the that had the word " nerdy" on his hand
If you have one of the best videos made directly from weird al for his song, you must be joking by making a collab for the song which actually could never achieve the greatness of the original video. so you get 1/5 from me because the animation was really not good and the jokes were sometimes stolen from the original vid or just not funny at least you tried.
this is one of the best collabs based on a song that i have heard, the song is brilliant for making a parody of it, also all authors impressed me with this well done!
whoever did that anime part, it was awsome
That was the most beautiful amazing cogitative brilliantly radiating superiority and intellect, I think this changed my life forever, I am truely blown away with your submission its so wonderful its beyond words and descriptions I think this is the blueprint to godlyness I think you are the most superior artist on newgrounds
and the sweet smell of your deodorant blasting from your blue shirts collar screaming about your alpha-maleness and the pride of your genitalia gleeming through that swagger of yours, and carried through this startling piece of art.
The only thing that really bugged me was the lips. Most of the time they never really seemed to be singing just moving. Also i did not really laugh except at the blue screen part which i lol'd at... That saved u...THIS TIME <_< jk thou cool vid.
