Reviews for "Eskimo Bob: Episode 52"
-.- after watching this video I have died...
I have mentally died from watching this video as I have instantly lost confidence and hope for this generation of animators. The lack of effort and poor skills at sound editing has made my once positive state of mind to a negative low...
I am ashamed of spending precious lifetime watching this when I could've been sitting at the couch petting my dog.
Radically differnt.. at the wrong time
There was too much missing from this episode for me to really care for it.. No traditional title sequence, no whistling before "The End"... most importantly though, no dialogue from Alfonzo... Instead we're introduced to a bunch of new characters and a cheap and overused plot...
What laughs there were from this episode were cheap, and triggered meerly by the apperance of former characters, in their monster form...
Eskimo Bob used to be the plinth in subtle and bizzare humor on the web, but now its lost its sense of direction. Even in the sparse offerings released over the past few years, each episode has had a sense of purpose and direction.. but this episode just loses the plot.
As a long time fan, I really didn't want to give this episode any less than 5... but I'm afraid I've had to vote 3.
Had to stop watching...
Not enough happening in the matters of plot or animation.
Now this is an old series.
But, it's obvious this hasn't aged well at all. I guess it's perhaps the time that has passed. But I sure remember watching this (as one of my first flashes) back on my buddy's Windows 98 (in probably 2000).
This is definitely an old series that many new newgrundlings won't understand, or appreciate. Then again, with almost no change to style or substance, maybe they shouldn't, either. The inukshuk (sp*), the FF like intro, and perhaps McKensie [like Blazing Saddles?] joke are nice asides, but the formula worked in a simpler, less commercial time as it is now.
I appreciate the nostalgia of this, but I can't laud it either.
Cool to see you guys back, even if most your fan-base isn't here anymore or in existence.
Most of your low reviews will probably come from newbies who are used to flash at a higher level than they can handle, and some of the high scores will come from sympathizing fans.
But, again, in all honesty, this is average as average can be. Some techniques are simple, but effective, but just not the right time period anymore.
Thanks for getting me into flash all those years ago, though. Hope to see you guys branch out.
