Reviews for "Zelda Uncut: Childhood"

Flat, predictable, and predictable.

Laura, I think you need to read this. You don't seem to have any knowledge of comedic timing or context, but have been convinced that you do. In addition, the fact that you have more of these on YouTube isn't a good sign and makes me think that you're nothing more than a modern-day carpetbagger. However, I am going to be fair...

Graphics: This is one of the two merits this has. You have nice backgrounds, and the animation is excellent. However, if there's something I learned: it takes more than great animation to make a great cartoon.
Audio: The music was good, and it fit the situation. However, the voice acting sounded labored and I think that Dexter never saw a cartoon from animation's golden age (1927-1953). Plus, screaming has been done to death. Therefore, I suggest that you watch those golden age cartoons to see how Mel Blanc, Jack Mercer, etc. did it.
Content: I may be a fan of game spoofs, but the ammount of derivative in yours is ridiculous. The aforementioned screaming, the growing up montage, house on fire, it all felt uninspired. This is exacerbated by the fact that they can be seen from a nautical mile. Look, I understand what you're trying to do, but you're not doing a very good job at it. As said before, go watch those aforementioned cartoons because there's a lot more you can learn from them than Legendary Frog, the Zirbes bros., Kirbopher, or Sirkowski. Either that or team up with someone who can do something funny such as Wooden Sneakers, Catoblepas, PeixeAquatico, or Golfinho.

The Good:
-Great animation
-Fitting music

The Bad:
-Uninspired
-Unfunny
-Bad voice acting

Overall: I have no right to give you a zero, but felt that the lack of caustic criticism was sorely needed. Here's a five out of ten and you would be better off if you let the YouTube thing go. (2.5/5)

I've never been called a carpetbagger before.. haha thanks? Anyway glad you liked some things about it. Although this was actually written by Dexter Manning and not me. But his humor is wildly popular all over the internet, so I'm not sure everyone would agree with you on it being unfunny. But thanks for the feedback :)

He should've have killed Gannon and zelda at the end then it would be a happy ending.

i don't really get it...

I Don't Really Like This Because this shoulden't happen

despite the passable art direction, the pacing, the premise, and the subject matter was so pointless and frivelous, that i did not smile once. the comedy was forced, the jokes were either tacked on or forced, such as the screaming, the floating eye, the kissing, the burning house, it was all contrived and a mess of awkward shading and awkward dialogue.

when a character does something in a game, yelling "dick' or "fuck" over it doesn't make it funny. it makes it unconventional cursing. making fun of the way it happens could work if it was done with better timing, and more solid acting around it, but sadly that wasn't here.

i wish i could give you more than this for the effort, i really do, but i cant. this needed better quality in the audio department, the shading direction, the humor, and most of all the passion towards this. and that leads me to the final, and most glaring problem: this was passionless.

it felt like you did not care at all about this, and it shows. it shows through the pacing and how forced everything felt.

please, make something that isn't just made to try and become a viral video.
