I was going to make it longer, but I had to rush to complete it in time to turn it in. No loading page so you might wanna wait for the browswer's loading bar to finish before pushing play.

hm

presentation: you need to work on this. a preloader bar would be very helpful and the "if your browser doesn't have a loading bar" thing is kind of stupid. The replay button at the end also needs to go to the second frame of the movie, not the first.

anyway the animation was pretty fluid even if it was just a flight and a walk cycle and a little more.

the joke didn't really tickle my epidermis though.

I appreciate the fact that you didn't just say "this movie sucked, never do any more," like the first guy did, i got the .fla preloader file from newgrounds so as soon as i get the chance to add it i will. I'm also taking your advice about the replay button. There was actually more to the original fairy tale (that was the assignment, a fairy tale) but i didn't have time to do all the animation like i wanted. I definately appreciate your input, though.

ok

OK ive given this a fairly low rating but here's why:

First off there was no sound which didn't help, the text was in a really small black font that was hard to read right at the top of the screen. Also there was nothing wrong with the graphics the drawings were quite well done but a little bit bland and lacking in detial


On the other hand...
The movemeant of the dog was pretty damn good and I really like your sense of humour, and your cartoon doesn't have those irritating long pauses which i see in most cartoons from new animators (you know where you see a hand goes to grab something, twenty seconds later the object in question has been grabbed, another 20 seconds later.....)

but still pretty good seeing as this is your first submission.

DrPhilJeeves responds:

there was supposed to be nature/bird sounds throughout the whole movie and a crunch/splat noise at the end, and i was a little rushed to complete it - otherwise i would have done more with the text and lengthened the story. thank you for the positive outlook on the animation though, it makes me feel a bit better about my skills as a flash animator. thank you for the review.

nice story

well the graphic wasnt that great and there no sound you got to read texte to known the story,nice time try putting more effort into your flash,cause this should of been blam....

DrPhilJeeves responds:

would have put in more effort had i had the time, if you had read the comment i wrote before watching the movie you would have known i was forced to do a rush job to meet my teacher's deadline.

LMAO

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! MAN THAT WAS GOOD! the graphics were amazing for a first-timer. Highly original, amazing background sound, bloody ending, and a good laugh for everyone. (except the sparrow!)

DrPhilJeeves responds:

thanks for the rave review, others weren't so positive about my skills, my overall presentation or my sense of humor.

Very funny

I knew something was going to eventually happen but I did not expect that :). Dont listen to the first guy that reviewed this submission. This is very good work and I hope you make more. Just make the preloader more interesting. I am surprised it has such a low score it deserves much better. By the way I love the way you respond to your reviews. Just like I did when I submitted my first submission. :D

DrPhilJeeves responds:

thank you for the great review. i personally think i could have done a much better job, but i was rushed to meet my teacher's deadline. i plan on making more stuff so i look forward to seeing what people think of my future work.
