Another great animation, but this one didn't seem as good as #1.5.
My main beef was with the fact that whilst the first toon sorta hinted at a larger one, this doesn't really say anything about Tywo, seeming like it's not really 'canon'. That one seemed more like a glimpse into a series with working logic and I was eager to see future work. Here, there was no explanation for Tywo being part of the presentation and I didn't really get a feel for any of the characters, nor feeling that this is a 1951 production.
Also, the jokes largely seemed to all revolve around Tywo being scared or hurt (with a bit more predictibility) and the pace didn't seem as fast, with the last joke seeming like it was being dragged out following all the same, predictable, standard twists.
I liked the bird dropping but add more stuff to keep the promising standard of #1.5
I liked the pun 'jumping to conclusions'.
The intro is great - faster than we can take in, meaning there's stuff to see on subsequent watches, kinda like the futurama intro. I'm looking forward to seeing the episodes the intro shows. Have you already made future episodes? Seems insanely well organised.

Author's Response:
Thanks, it wasn't canon because it was just some fast movie I whipped up in a few days for a Chemistry class, the reason it takes place back then was that I originally wanted to have a color wrap-around at the end where Tywo is reaming Jackal for looking for summer jobs in other time periods (Jackal's the genius). I never got around to it though.
