the game was better

Update: I just realized another PONG: The Movie is out. It's not anything like mine, but it's just weird to me.
In an age where AI has taken over, one man steps up to the challenge. The challenge is, PONG.
Note: This won't actually be made into a movie. This is a comical/fake trailer. Read below for more info.
In my Cinemation class, we had to create a fake trailer storyboard for a movie we made up, and I undoubtely do this. After the storyboard was completed, I became aware of an animation competition, and decided to do this, which is my explaination for something else.
The graphics dwindle towards the end due to the lack of time I had to complete it, due to the competition. I finished the last half in oh, about 3 or 4 hours. I plan on updating it with better graphics later, so keep your eyes out.
I know this isn't front page material, but it's only my second animation. I just really want some critique to help me improve.
I'm also gonna submit this to a local animation competition, I'll update if anything happens.

I like the way that you have decided to just keep this as a funny trailer rather then a full length flash movie because it just works so well in this trailer, everything from the guy needing an ambulance but his friend is to concerned with getting to the 100 mark to the great voice acting you have used for this flash. The graphics for the characters weren't that bad, its normally very hard to draw humans but you have done it well and the animation was great and synced with the voices well. Overall a very entertaining flash.

^^Good Points^^
This looks like the full version will be very good. I was pretty well entertained by just this trailer. I liked the epic music and voicing, which really made this seem serious, and I guess that is what really makes this fun to watch.
^^Needs Improving^^
I think you may have given away a bit much in the trailer. Basically all there needs to be added to this is an ending.

Decent working of a trailer
No, it doesn't really remind me of the trailer for a hollywood blockbuster. It's not even a patch on a trailer for a straight-to-dvd movie, but it is certainly a decent parody of it.
The graphics look a little rough around the edges for me. What you really need is just a single line, not about three for the edges of the people.
If you combined that with standing a little further away from the microphone when you recorded, you might just be on to a winning formula here.
Good start though.

LOL
This looks like it will be a hilarious movie. I can't wait until it comes out (if it ever does). The graphics are pretty good but could be better and use shadows. It got me anticipated which Flash movies rarely do to me.
It definitely looks like it will be a funny movie... the voice acting needed a bit of work or either the sound setting was set too low... To fix that go into File>Publish Settings>Flash>Stream settings and set it to 112kbps. That should make the audio quality for audio that has been set to stream higher but unfortunately increases the file size.
Lipsyncing was very good, but you could add a bit more movement into the character that talks like he moves up his microphone so he looks a bit excited... but the main thing about the graphics that needs improving is shadows... you need to add shadows to your graphics.
Good job, can't wait for the movie to come out!
