Crosses the "parody" line...

I understand this a parody of badly made parodies and tributes of Metal Gear Solid. First of all, I am not a fan on MGS, so you can say anything you want about MGS and I won't bat an eye :-). But I feel that with any stylistic parody, you run the risk of becoming what you're making fun of. For example, people try to spoof, just say, cheesy 50's sci-fi movies by making a movie in the same style. But there's that fine line between successful parody and becoming what you are spoofing. In this case, a badly made parody of Metal Gear Solid.

But by no means am I saying you did a poor job or "blam this crap". Like I said, I'm not a big fan on MGS anyway, so I don't really watch too many parodies of it. This means there's probably a lot I'm just not getting. Most of the content in this flash I found tasteless or pointless, but I'm sure it was intentional. It didn't appeal to me, but I'm not going to get all up-in-arms about it. To each their own, I say. And while most people discredit this flash on being crudely animated/drawn, I really can't say anything about that, as I don't know how to do Flash. I can barely draw a straight line! But as before, I'm sure the art style (or lack thereof j/k) was intentional.

One thing though I can say is that it was probably longer than it needed to be. To be honest, I stopped watching it halfway through the first time, but decided that there had to be something to this flash, so I resumed watching it. But yeah, I just felt that by mocking badly made MGS parodies, it became a madly made MGS parody. Of course, that's just my opinion and I cannot fault you for putting together this collab. Like I said before, I'm probably not getting the whole picture anyway :-)

BAD

The only reason i even GAVE you stars was because I couldnt see the whole thing. It was irritating me... thats right.. I couldnt watch the damn thing because it was POINTLESS and the Jokes were BAD. Sorry about that maybe better luck on the next one..

Well

It was more funny than the colab.

Fail... maybe

1) I don't know what it is. If it is a parody of Metal Gear Solid you failed. The only thing that was remotely funny was when I looked at the reviews of the people that gave this a 10.

or

2) If how ever it is a parody of the no talent hacks that seem to be infecting the internet lately.. then I actually would like the starts to put to 10 and you get a win. I've been thinking of just making a badly drawn flash animation with myself screaming swear words constantly, then putting "Now give me my 10 star rating"

Only if the second is true.

Great flash work!

This is probably just as funny as Edie Balin's work. People give you bad scores because they are probably MGS fanboys or they don't understand satire and need to stop being so serious.
