"Interesting interpretation"
Heh, yeah this is the exact same review I gave you last time, I know, but you didn't change anything, at least for me.
-Pros: It was an excellent rendition of the futility of war. A lot of time was obviously spent on this, whenever you did it.
-Cons: Overall, there were few flaws, mostly concerning authenticity and ideas.
I'm not sure about this, but I thought subs at that time period fired directly from the tube, and were not dropped and self propelled. I didn't think the U.S had subs at that time either, if that's what you were implying. You focused heavily on the Nazi side of things (see suggestions).
-Suggestions: You say you're a history buff, so I won't question the authenticity of the sub scenes too heavily. When I say you focused on the Nazi's too much, I meant you showed too little of the American's, none of the English, hardly any of the Russians, hardly any of the Italians, and very little of the Japanese. Considering your flash is about the futility of war, I would say they should have a much larger part in the matter. It takes more than one to make a war. All sides were just as guilty of slaughter as the Nazis. It might also make people less inclined to think of you as a neo-Nazi if you include the other sides involved. Also, the slideshow at the end showed a picture with the caption 'Iraq.' I thought there was going to be more images of different countries after that one (with the name label at least). I think it would be much more effective to have a name of the country to label where the slaughter took place. It would inform people that war takes place everywhere, not just in history.
*I understood what you're trying to say here. There were more than a few metaphors floating around in this flash. I hope people understand them. It really gets you to thinking though. Democracy: is freedom a facade? Perhaps we're all living under a dictatorship without realizing it...

Awesom animation and great choice of music :D
Superb
I really LOVE this song from a decade ago (it's "The beginning is the end is the beginning" a b-side from "The end is the beginning is the end")
The graphic in not certainly perfect but is detailed and effective.
This video and the great song make a strange atmosphere, very impressive... the moment Little Boy exploded really shocked me and the end is very powerful... great job man, one of the best flash movies of recent times.
