Um...
There were some things i liked, sone things i didnt...
I really liked the hand rock, the door to no where, and the octopus in the cage was cute!
I was sad about the puppy however :( ( ;) )
But overall I think it was pretty decent
Reviews for "The Abyss : Komjo"
I realy liked this...
well i know that alot of people are complaining that this is a crappy movie caue its INSPIRED (not copied) by David firth. and there is nothing wrong with that.
anyway, yo my comment on the movie.
you created a very creepy mood, and the scenery was really great, allthough i didnt like the background when you saw his little den. it was just to much stuff i think, and it did kind of break the mood a bit.
well great work 5/5
Whatever
This is like ring "THE COLORED VERSION/specialedition" spooky?
NO
I know this was not hard to make, all we basicly SAW is bunch of movie clips peiced together, some redwrawn thrice so the line shakes. Very simple and pointless.
To much like salad fingers.
A lot of that movie is just a try hard attempt at the kind of abstract that is salad fingers.
A thought-
Antithinker's commentary usually is in tone with my own. In this instance I could not agree more. It's obvious influence by Firth's Salad Finger's series is more than self evident. However, I'm willing to add that it's a unique voice that you're giving us. This is a postmodern tribute if anything to Salad Fingers and Firth- a "fan-fic" of the universe he's created. This is just yet one more piece in the growing films inspired by that original series and I dare say it sparks a new genre for NG.
Use of of sound was excellent, though the arm on a meat hook I felt was a tad cheesy as was the "octopi" in the parrots cage.
A recalcitrant note would be the irony in having an exit sign in Komjo's den. Sartre's No Exit is about people refusing to look into how other people see them much less break their internal, idealized view. Thus the line, "Hell is other people." In this instance, you've created a plausible counter view- the terrible beast which hides it's true nature beneath imagined camo- the equivalent ot the modern sociopathic serial killer...idealized in literature by Hannible Lecter and Q_P (see: Joyce Carol Oates, Zombie).
Et Al, congrats on a successful film, well done. The animation was clear, solid and smooth- pacing was perfect. Excellent use of subdued tones and sharp contrasting lines- a greater definition to the animation style, a note worthy difference between your work and that of Firth. Komjo Kudus.

U my fellow animator saw it like it was...
dave firth surely inspired me and will inspire a new wave of movies here, i experimented and i liked it, but gave it my view, and what about the Hannibal Lecter, it was also inspired on that and its great to know that someone could point it out, thanks for the comment.
