English Extra Credit Project:
Started last thursday, a lighthearted summary of the book Paradise Lost (the story of mankinds fall from paradise).
*edit*
seems many of you seem to think im going to make a series of this, which sadly, isnt the plan for right now. it was made as a trailer for the book, not a movie im making, should have made that more clear.
Sorry if i got your hopes up.

Short & sweet animation! It was engaging & funny while keeping teh spirit of the original work! The BGM was spot on.

& yes I agree with axel-wolf, Lukesf2 don't the buy the book, just read it online...which is illegal, but education is meant to be free >:) The original work is tedious in parts but once you got the swing of it it's a rather rewarding experience in the end. Don't read it cuz you have to for school or something, reading classics in school always destroys the experience...reading Macbeth in high school tainted the play for me :'( Although I hope Butterflysmasher enjoyed & got a decent mark for this project.

Anyway axel-wolf what do you mean Satan raped his daughter, yeh've been reading Spark Notes or something too much again?! It is possible, but when Sin recounts the experience in the original text it is not very clear whether Satan raped her or not, and judging from her reaction to him and her account it seems that the relationship was mutual on both sides, although their incestuous son, Death, definitely did rape Sin.

not bad

The one thing you left out is that book is the most tedious thing on the planet, and that milton was stoned of his head when he wrote it. Lukesf2 dont bother buying it, that video make more sense than the text. Although you left out the part where satan rapes his daughter

lol

Before I watched this I did not know the book existed.

After watching it, I not only knew the book existed but I am now going to buy the book also.

I agree!

Music was awesome! voice acting could do better. :)
