Reviews for "Zombie City I"

Drawn out, spread thinly, but your direction is on

Graphics - 6

The backgrounds were vivid gradients with color.

The shading was really incredible like the cliff that zombie is standing on.

The shading doesn't follow light properly like the sun rising in quick motion.

The detail is spotty. In one part the glass looks reflective and decent but the buildings lack even major details.

Stick figures, is this the only place where you used a stroke other than hair line? You detail the stick figure with a mouth which is really funny and defeating the point of a stick figure but I see your emphasis on the devouring of flesh...lol.

Style - 6

The style of your direction is mimicry, but good mimicry. Your use of blackouts to change scenes is good and puts much needed contrast in what would be more bland and cliche. Using the sun as a storytelling tool is a universal concept, that the story somewhat revolves around night and day and the clever use of music (see below).

Moving fast is cool, the zombie runs, show all those old school Romero guys. Just kidding. (see below Humor)

Sound - 6

The use of music was clever and shows your personal tastes. Fine tunes, nice tie in to the theme and plot, nice change of pace to when the action starts. You really do not need to know the bands to see the good use.

The sound effects though, while nearly not there at all include a person screaming and the zombie groaning in a funny slowed down bit that made him sound a lot bigger than he is. That the sound effect makes him imposing by making him larger... that is all back of the mind things. The other was him punching the guy in the head. Why the fuck did the zombie punch him?

Violence - 8

The zombie punching a dude. The zombie munching a dude off screen and coming up with blood all over his head or face... with stick figures you can't really see depth or angles.

One of the more subtler things was the fact that the gun had more detail than anything in the fucking movie. You are really gun obsessed and I can tell to spend that much time detailing the gun and to use the rest as almost a throw away.

Humor - 6

One of the funniest things comes from the lack of consistency of the zombie running and lumbering. He'll be moving slowly chowing on a guy and then all of a sudden speeding on the sidewalk... lol. Is he Grandpa Joe or Speed Racer?

The zombie punching a dude.

Interactivity - You press PLAY, it plays, you watch the movie, play with your balls in said time. You hit the Replay button and play with your balls again.

Overall - 7

I guess it warrants a sequel to see where the fuckin zombie is running to. What is he going to do run the AIDs marathon or something? Will he run into water and find Atlantis? Maybe he'll sit down and have a smoke break after a while? I mean, he is a zombie right? Normal human factors don't apply to him. Let's make him a superhero while we're at it. He'll suck brains out of people's noses into his mouth and can sit down and jerk off his decayed pecker at the same time.

Why the fuck does the zombie punch the guy?

AnimationBoy responds:

Thanks for your vote, dude. I like how you told me everything...why doesn't everyone do that? Hmmm...lol

Good job

A little short but I will not make a big deal about that considering its the first of many other series. I'm goving this a high rating because I love zombie movies and stick movies. Well kepp up the good work.

AnimationBoy responds:

Thanks, man! Yeh, I loved stick movies...I also love Zombie Animations, so I decided why not put them both together like Joe Zombie or the Sanitarium? So I did, and came up with this!

Good

Good, except for the music.

AnimationBoy responds:

Meh, I know...the music...:'(

It was the shiznit!

I liked it man.. I hope to see more work from you AB!!!

AnimationBoy responds:

Thanks! And you will, you will...XD

For a first it's not bad...

...but...

Firstly, the urge to blam this was intense. It took all my willpower not to. Don't make stick movies. Don't continue this. Everytime someone spends hours to make a movie to only have shitty stick people in it, baby jesus cries until his eyes bleed.

Second, ditch the mainstream music. The Linkin Park and Slipknot just didn't work for this.

Lastly, did I mention, don't do stick people? I can't even bring myself to think about anything but the stick people in this because stick people are so horrid. Don't keep it up, and don't expect to get a good rating if you keep doing them.

The days where you can get a good rating with stick characters are long, long gone.
