Its just not funny...
This was a descent animation. I have to hand it to you with great graphics though, it looked marvellous. But the main joke just wasn't really funny at all... I liked the rest of the jokes more.
Reviews for "Fred's Birthday Surprise"
Cute, real cute. ;}
This flash got a chuckle out of me, but I'm sure my Grandmom would laugh her ass off. ;)
I'll definitely make sure to show it to her sometime. Nice job!
Topdrawer responds:
Thank you, HardcorePwnage,
I hope it makes her laugh. I've shown it to several older folks and they all understood immediately that the story is about an old guy who's so arrogant and boastful about his good health, that he becomes an annoyance to everyone (the scene with the doctor was used to emphasize this). The little old lady had no interest in feeling his privates, she simply thought of a good way to shut him up. Give your grandma my best wishes.
Funny stuff!
Fred's Birthday Surprise Is funny in an old school way. The timing and pace are right on with the dirty humor of the sixties. It's good to see someone do something that isn't a cheap South Park wannabe.

Thanks, Incognito1
I really appreciate intelligent observations.
is it an old joke?
yep - and i had to wait three minutes for you to deliver the punchline.the delivery was all wrong and the joke stinks, the best part was the doctor. and what do jokes have to do with movie sequels?not really comparable situations.point is,come up with your own stupid jokes and they'll be funny,i just don't find playground humor all that funny
Topdrawer responds:
Thanks, Pimp,
I have to admit, you are not alone in your opinion. Several people out of the 176 who have reviewed movie seem to agree with you. As for the others, its amazing how so many people can be wrong, isn't it?
Best animator ever.
Topdraw ROCKS. Every time I see a new one on the front page, I'm all over it. So is everyone else and it'd be a waste of time typing out what everyone already knows.
so
You rock.
