Reviews for "Persia Destroyed"

Interesting

That was nice. A bit too much reading, and your own drawings were a little amateur, but everything still looked very nice and the music was an excellent choice.

The world is ironic, isn't it? I like your unbiased view on things.

PersianPower responds:

Thankyou very much, if this weren't a little school project and actually some big flash animation, I would have spent more then 15 minutes on the drawings. Thankyou very much.

well

.....no....that can't be possible...because i am the prince of persia

j/k..it was good..full of pictures and stuff..to be honest i don't like those too much but if that's your thing the run with it

PersianPower responds:

Ok, thanks lol. No, but I am the Prince Of Persia.

Tried something new?

Not bad, however, review-wise, please read the following: You may want to consider some sort of voice over, instead of the text. Very factual, but people and reading don't go together too well, even if its for a class. Try a different song for the backgrpund music, my suggestion would be anything indian, check on limewire for an indian instrumental, if you don't have one. Keep up the good work, otherwise. Hope this was for a project. If it is, you may want to learn PowerPoint, it will convey the text in a more appropriate means.

PersianPower responds:

Alright, I will remember what you told me for the next animation I make.

well

you spelled where wrong like 5 times.

PersianPower responds:

Yes, I fixed that. I will upload it soon.

History flash. Hmm.

Like some of your reviewers, I'm a history major also.

I don't know your specific assignment for the project.

I'd give this good marks if I were to grade it as an argumentative presentation, with an argued point that Islam's unfair rules led to the violent overthrow of the Persian empire and the destruction and dispersion of Persia's very different culture. As a good thesis statement often does, yours draws controversy and counter-argument: you've recieved more reviews than the average NG submission, many of which disagree with your point. The story is dramatic and sad and makes a viewer understand the suffering and destruction. B+

However, if you were to write a general historical report, I'd grade you a little lower because you take one side and support it much more strongly than the other. Your reasons are understandable, we all have bias (as a European-descended American, I have a cultural bias of my own against Muslim Arabs -my kind are fighting a war against ther kind currently) but any historian should try to approach as many viewpoints as possible -this is reported from a pro-Persian viewpoint. A list of Works Cited (books, art, film, etc) would have added scholarly weight to the report also. C-

PersianPower responds:

Yes, I kind of agree with you, but I was telling the Persian side of the story.
