Hello, This is my first full length cartoon! I had submitted ducky and plunger in the past but those episodes were terrible and had no content, so Im re-introducing ducky and plunger completely redone. I hope you like this, please vote!

For anyone who watches this, Im currently working on a second one, so keep an eye out! (If anybodys watching?)

Most people view the cartoon based on looks, but a true comic's humor in my opinion lies within the content. I actually enjoy when things look shoddily crafted, but by no means am I saying that you didn't do an amazing job. The "primitive" animation, and this is by far a lack of a better choice of word, went exceptionally well with the content. By how it was animated, and the detail put into it (The escellator stairs moving for example) prooved to be literally art in my opinion. I feel most people can relate to the characters, such as being pissed enough to throw a remote at their TV and having random obsessions, to having a roomate carelessly make a sandwich then just plop onto the toilet like a bum made the cartoon feel lifelike. I liked how despite having facial features, you could read the Plunger's emotions really well. The 3D "matrix" part was awesome, I didn't see that sort of animation coming at all - I'm looking forward to more work done with that. The length was decent, and the choice of music was very well put. The ending song flowed well, and it would have been a lot better personally if the song flowed into the credits, not just randomly going into Andrew W.K. There's a lot of opportunity for you with your creativity, and it's the little details that you put into your work that'll shine through once you REALLY dedicate strong effort into another cartoon. I'll give you a 9/10, for your year and a half-long dedication, effort, and creativity. You're one star short of perfection because I plan on giving you the final star on your next "performance." =)

"Nice Animation"

date: October 13, 2008

It is very difficult to describe how one should feel after watching this cartoon. There is not one word that could sum it up. Watching this animation you feel as though you are eating a big bowl of sweet candy, in that its makes you feel good inside, but has no nutritional value. Now a days I find to many authors of animation and games are focusing on the graphical prospective of there creation and not what people get out of it. Ducky in plunger shakes things up by offering pure entertainment. Content first, artwork second, and in this case story last. You could watch this and not understand what the hell is going on and still laugh. Although it may not look the greatest, it doesn't seem to matter.
Nice Job!

"Good job!"

Okay, I admit that sometimes a flash comes along that does things I don't like and yet I can't help but find some humble approval of it in the end. This has to be one of those cartoons. On one hand, I have a high standard on how good the quality of the drawings and animation are in a piece, and I don't like when things are overused like matrix music for action scenes and text words instead of voices. And this is normally reflected in the score. But on the other hand this cartoon was so non-sequitur it wouldn't have mattered much if the drawings had been better. I found something completely innocent in your story that doesn't seem to want to please anyone, just make something funny that you wanted to tell and it doesn't matter if it makes no sense. The whole concept of a plunger as a character is one example. Haha, he eats popcorn and sandwiches, he sits on the toilet (even though he's a tool that would normally be in the toilet) and he rides a wagon that propels on some invisible force. The duck has no feet and slides around, and has an obsession with toasters, and lives with a plunger in a house. It's true, some people will come in watching this and say "hey that can't happen!" or "wtf, this has no real plot" but to me, you set the standard of what I'm supposed to expect in the beginning with that bizarre TV show that starts it all. At that point I said, "I need to disband my logic and watch this cartoon open-minded". And I honestly liked this cartoon and laughed at the things they did and said. There were some lazy parts in the drawings and too much tweens, but there was also some real effort put into your cartoon's construction. You used close-up shots, and pan arounds, we get an x-ray view in the toaster, the shopping scene used good light effects and fade aways to show a passage of time in the toaster store. You made some okay backgrounds and even got a little creative by making a "Y-box" and putting little details like the personalized license plates haha those were great. I think you made a cartoon that only looks bad on the surface but actually is very good overall on the inside. Keep animating! You have the potential to get much better. Dedicate a little more effort to the art and the movement, but keep going. I would normally vote this as a 5, but I'll give you a 7 to be nice ;)

Thanks! I can see you really took the effort to write a full review and I really appreciate it. I know the animation needs to be improved, im trying to figure out better ways to do things but I guess Im still learning. One of the major problems is that this cartoon was built from 2 different cartoons and made over the span of a year and a half, so many things were lost and forgotten along the way. One half of the cartoon I didnt even have the original FLA file for any more and I had to decompile the swf form of it and smooth out the bugs. All in all though Im glad I took the time to finally finish this and its reviews like yours that really stick in my mind and keep me going. Thanks :)
