Reviews for "Hyperborea"

Decent Animation

It's one of the better no-dialogue animations I've seen in a while. Clean animation, comical storyline, and the sound effects and music was fitting. Some places it did seem a tad too slow, but it didn't really degrade the movie.

Awesome stuff, mate.

Thanks!

Ummm

What is the main point of this flash? What does Hyperborea mean. Also, do the 2 ogres die?

exotworking responds:

Hyperborea is an ancient utopia, similiar to Atlantis or Ultima Thule.

Hmmmmm

At first from the name alone I was certain this was related to Conan the Barbarian.
After the first minute or two of the film I was certain it was not.
Now after having watched the entire thing, seen the message of the killer trees and fire wielding peasants and butterfly's pulling knives out of no where.. I'm not sure at all.
For the Record HyperBorea is the name of; I think one of the old continents or countries in the Conan stories. Can't remember off the top of my head.

exotworking responds:

I think it was adapted by the author of Conan, certainly not invented by him.

nicely done

a well thought-out and good quality flash. my only criticism is that theres numerous scenes where the audience spends a second or more staring at empty landscape with no characters on the screen, and while i realize this was done for pacing, it seemed a little long.

exotworking responds:

That sounds like you´re right

Interesting

Very nice animation, good new kind of flash movie, and there is something what you want to say by your flash , and thats important.
But i kinda miss some story line and stuff, thats why i give 9- where the men come from, why he go to hyperborea, what is going on in fact, who was the other men eaten by ogres, etc.
and also one more thing that i have to say- its was nice afterall, but i think that you shouldnt make the scenes with one picture so long- tree scene, waiting in ogre base, taking the shield etc. because it gets kinda boring that way. But if you make theese scenes shorter it would help a lot to your film

P.S.: sry for my critic, i rly enjoyed your movie, and i think its very good, just wanted to help you to make better one next time

exotworking responds:

Thanks, I think you´re probably right about the timing. I like slow movies though :)
