A shame it's marked for deletion...

Casually, I like to read things like the tags and spotting the tell-tale one that's been added for this, says that you're either about to lose this for copyright infringement on NIN, or have marked it for deletion yourself (Why on earth would you do that?!)

It's as related to the general plot as those three seasons of Dallas that were "just a dream", so it's something that you've gone to town with and made a half decent music video for The Line Begins to Blur. I think it was a shame that you didn't do a better job, if I'm honest. Your animation style still has the "slapdash" look to it, where you've rushed through, to hit an unrealistic publication deadline.

Some bits were good (I love the new voice for Brutus) and the animation, where he ends up talking to no-one but himself was a nice sequence, but with the effects that you've created for this piece were just a little lacking in quality, so overall, the piece gets dragged down and someone like me cannot fully appreciate it.

In a similar story to your earlier work, you still need to tweak and polish the pieces, to get a good result - this requires a little more, but less than originally required. Keep going, you're heading the right way with it!

I already have seen the beginning of this flash, but this time you have added some new stuff to the end of it. I liked the graphics here. Compared to your earlier works you have improved your drawing skills a lot.

Also, the lip syncing looks much better now than in earlier episodes. It now looks much more realistic, when Brutus talks. The last line before the credits was pretty funny.

The "no eastereggs" credits where a nice addition as well. ;)

This seems to be a remake of one of your earlier works but with some stuff added at the end making it even longer. Only real problem I seemed to have here was after Brutus finished talking to himself the credits are strangely... a lot bigger and it remains evident when the thing finishes and heads back to the first frame and it too is even larger. Perhaps a scripting error that was made while producing this?

The animation was nice and it seemed like you were trying to touch up on some things from earlier. My question however is, why do you continue doing these short pieces and never end up finishing a full music video for that Nine Inch Nail song? Time constraints or what? Not a bad thing but would be nice to see the finished product in the near future when you get time to do so.

The animation after the error screen was also nice and touched back into completely normal territory for Adrellia Village. Seeing that Brutus was just talking to himself was pretty funny though. Then the credit sequence comes and strangely all the frames feel like they were zoomed in when they shouldn't so possibly a scripting error... The guitar image flipping was a little entertaining paired with that song that was playing in the background.

No real story here, just seemed to be a continued side project for making a music video that keeps getting a little more done, bit by bit. Looking forward to seeing it finished sometime since it looks pretty good with the path it is going on.

The variety of audio seemed to be good and the voice acting for the Brutus part was great, good work there to the voice actor!

Overall, another work in progress music video attempt that cuts off and goes to another random skit with Brutus. Best of luck finishing the music video.

pretty bad u should learn to animate and flash properly
sorry maybe u'll be less terrible a dekade from now

I was expecting this to be a shorter episode than the last one. What I was amazed at this was how it got so insane at the beginning. It seemed like this would have worked better if it was an April Fool's Day prank. Whatever it is, it's still pretty well done. I was actually afraid for a minute there that something actually WAS wrong with my computer. Surrealism is always cool.

The funniest part was easily when you showed the video game footage. The animation was as decent as last time. I was thinking the intro was going to be the whole thing. While it wasn't, it was about half of it at least. Not as good as your previous entry, but still nice.
