Some Compliments:

- Love the style of the hands moving objects on the scene.

- Great stage focus. (You don't have your viewers confused on what to look at on the screen - which is good)

- The exaggeration of the irony at the end was great.

- Did you do the voices by yourself? If you did you did a great job masking your own voice.

Some Criticism (Constructive):

- Your audio quality is weird. Go into flash's Publish Settings and change both "Audio Stream" and "Audio Event" to "Speech, 44kHz, Mono" (Be aware this takes up more space on your PC if you are cautious of that.)

- If you believe your backgrounds fit your style that's great. Personally I like more detailed backgrounds but hey! Maybe your viewers think differently - this is just my opinion.

- It's obvious that you are erasing the arms and redrawing them. If you could find a way to eliminate this problem it would be more visually appealing. (Such as redrawing the whole body instead of just the arm - to give more life as well)

Anyway, this kind of content is something I'd appreciate seeing on the portal! :)

Keep up the good work, Austin!

I love the animation style. All of it is so visually appealing. The hands really make it unique, too. Well done!

Nicely done, the designs are pretty simple but still somewhat nice looking, the punchline was good and there was a good mix of animation and real life pictures in the form of some guy's hand, i don't think i've ever seen any of your other movies if you have any but if you're thinking about making more i think you should keep using that hand, it could sort of act as your way of interacting with your own animations directly.

The voice-acting could use some work, though. I also noticed that your flash keeps looping, you could use a pre-loader, luckily Newgrounds offers some free ones: http://www.newgrounds.com/downloads/preloaders/
