Kids or teenagers?

I'll have to agree with Roserend.
I couldn't help, but look down to the author comments before the movie was even over, mostly because I was confused/anxious of what was to happen. The kid smoking just totally threw me off. I understand how media effects teenagers in the aspect of drugs and smoking... but children? If you meant "kids" as in teenagers, I'd say it'd be better putting the character in a situation a normal teenager would be found in. I don't know that many teenagers that play with toy cars on the ground. That's normally seen as kids 8 or younger.

Going past the meaning, lets go to the art. It was simplistic, however it flowed well with the mood you were trying to convey.

Good! We should be confused/ anxious about the way we raise kids today. That's kinda the point. As for your thought about teenagers vs kids, don't you think it is during the early development stages that these seeds are planted? Just last week i saw a one and a half year old girl pick up a cigarette that was lying around and pretend to smoke it!

good

it makes people want to watch all of it and see what the point is. but unless you read the author's comment it doesn't tell you what made the kid smoke. And if this is just a stand alone type of thing people won't get it all.

they will be interested though.
glad to see something will a strong message.

Interesting comment. It kinda highlights the point which is: think about it. Agree, disagree, i don't really care. It happens: why?

I agree with the movie

Even if the animation's limited, I like your movie. +6 for the story.
