It's too bad you didnt' stick around, the ending is pretty good and where all the "speed" or "action" takes place... you're only hurting yourself by not waiting a little while.. ah well :-/
ok..
i don't get it!!!
Not much originality
The setting and overall concept are very much taken from the original ReBoot series (not to mention using the exact same name: Reboot):
Events happen inside a computer concerning data, files, corruption, Binary Code and other computer paraphernalia.
Not only that but, you also use cameos from outside sources such as: Tetris, Mario, Zelda, Megaman, Metroid, Star Wars, and the Norton Anti-virus program. Some more than others.
Also, icons in this Reboot can be compared to the original ReBoot:
Smite Agent -> Virus
Norton/Render/Police -> Guardian
Grey people -> Square and Sphere citizens
The only thing that's original has to do with your story. There's a lot of mystery behind Violet and the Smite agent vs. The orange girl and their "police" that you've created throughout the series. Violet obviously has done this sort of thing before and the police have dealt with it before as well so there's some unknown history that Render, Amy, and the whole city are being tied up into that I (and other viewers) would expect you to explain later in the series. None of which need the element of events happening and being part of a computer. You could easily come up with a different explanation.
I suggest renaming it something else. Maybe something related to what Violet is trying to do.
For anyone who HAS NOT seen the original ReBoot series on TV this will be a very cool and new experience for you, aside from the cameos, but, the original ReBoot series is a lot better.
For anyone who HAS already seen the original ReBoot series on TV this will seem very rehashed, and copied. It basically looks like they took the "ReBoot" idea, and its name, and remade it to a different story with different physics.
So, this would be a great series... if the ideas you have weren't already done.
Score:
4/10
The story is good but, it doesn't make up for everything else.
JMartin97 responds:
The only reason it's named Reboot is because in the first episode, the computer reboots... any other similarities are coincidental.. don't know what to tell you.. as I actually never watched ReBoot the Tv series.
It looks like it'd be great.
But could you speed it up a bit?! I kept hearing myself say C'mon, speed it up. Cool as it was, I finally turned it off.
