Reviews for "Gen-X : Chapter 1"

Ack!!! This could have been so good!!!

This is very well written, in my opinion. Very much my type of story, and very entertaining. The music choices I think also were perfect for the spots they filled. Kudos to you as a writer, and voice actor (you did the main character right? that was very nicely acted and recorded).

Sadly though, that ends the praise section of my review. Everyone else seemed to be recorded in very bad quality and with little emotion on some of them. What was up with the driver guy? He seemed awfully excited.

Why did you have to make it sticks though? That was the one thing that totally killed this flash for me. They weren't even different colored sticks. I could have swore I saw both of his parents at his school (which, by the way, how come neither of his parents share his hair color? is he adopted?). And in the scene where he fought the other red haired stick they looked like twins, I couldn't tell who was winning for a lot of it. By far though, the most depressing aspect of witnessing you taking the easy way out of art, was the scene where he was reading the writing on the wall. There was a nice picture of a hand there and he ran his stump across the writing. You HAD to realize how bad that looked.

I wish you had put a little effort into making actual people or had an artist do it for you. This flash would have been number one on my favorites list and no doubt it would have been in the top 50. Alas, while this may be the best of the stick flashes I've seen, sticks can only be so impressive. Good luck on your future works.

Sorry if you're looking for graphic intensive animation, but I just like sticks. Sorry bout that, but thanks anyway. :D

Needs more to it.

Just drawin' out simple characters instead o' stick fiqures wit' hair and faces would make this movie better, a hundred fold. You obviously have the skills to do so.

Good... But why use sticks?

I dont think it was bad in anyway as far as the story goes a little cheesy at times but that can slide i just wish you hadnet used sticks it shows no artistick talent...sorry just the way i feel.

Totally hokey

I'm sorry... it was good animation, but the story is hokey and silly.

Meh

The story you came up with for this is awful, come on do you just though the story together over night and hope no one would notice? He character isn't very indepth and really time could have been better spent on character building, rather than pointless "this is my home, this is my school," etc. Fighting nothing special and way too short. I never rate that high on stick flashs. Animation and sound were fine. So in short crap.
