"didn't care for this (But freddy WAS nicely drawn)"

by: Bezman

Kinda confusing mostly.

I liked the spoken intro - it had a nice lyrical rhythm to it.

Freddy was drawn quite nicely - I liked all the angular lines. Sorta looked as if you'd used modify>simplify or something, to good effect.

I think your character would have looked good drawn similarly though and the single eye is too far forward - the character kinda looks as if he only has one eye.

The mouths were moving way too fast - certainly keep the open shapes open for longer and don't necessarily try to fit in every single phoenome. When folk speak, they don't instantly close their mouths after each word.

Anyways, the plot itself just seemed a bit disappointing to me. It seemed like the highlight was meant to be the song, but for me that section just really dragged on. The start before that and the bit after just didn't really have any impact on me at all.

It seemed like a lot of the interesting action happened off-screen. Maybe show us a silhouette of the body he's just killed?

And for me maybe a little more exploration of the characters would have helped it have an impact.

Sorry, didn't care for this much.

thanks for the review anyway :)

oh and with Freddy, I didn't use anything like Modify>Simplify or whatever - I drew it witha brush tool and tidied up the outline with the black arrow tool...

"Alright"

Well the voice acting although it was pretty clear didn't really have much to it, might want to work a little bit on that to kind of add more feeling to the whole situation, in parts it just didn't really seem to work with the story. Also, the part with the prison and the music, in my opinion the music just went on for a little too long and the constant flicking back and forth of charaters did seem to get a little boring to watch.

The story and idea seems to be pretty good and with a little more animation and some more practice with voice acting, it could have worked very well. Could do with a few full body shots in parts too, like the opening, you couldn't see the dead body, lol.

3/5

"Good"

by: Shanus

Nice little movie, lots of laughs to be had.

The characters were drawn very well, was missing a bit of animation, it just seemed to rely on the audio to move itself along. Also a little bit of a lip syncing issue, but other than those flaws very nice job.

The audio was excellent. Great voice acting & some quality music tracks. THis aspect of the movie was perfect, great job.

The plot was a bit weird to say the least but I enjoyed it, quite funny. but I did find the whole song battle think to be a little bit annoying, but other than that it was quite good, well done

A pretty good movie, needs a few things improved as I said above, but overall a very good movie.

"Good stuff - needs more animation"

by: Coop83
date: March 26, 2008

So the only thing that this flash is really lacking is a good amount of animation - that bit in the middle with Linkin Park and that Emo Crap that the Monkey was listening to was just lip-sync. After a while it gets quite samey, so you really needed to add something else, like maybe some dancing or some flashing lights.

The rest of it was good - funny jokes, a well developed plot line and some good drawing from yourself. Might have done with adding something like Freddy walking towards the gallows or something, while Sunday, Bloody Sunday was playing.

I look forward to your next piece - bring back the monkey!
