Reviews for "B&W Drama Theater #X-mas"

I dunno, Alan seemed to like it enough to do the voices for it if it's any consolation.
elliott...
lol
That was pretty funny u had very clear sound which i liked and the end was funny and the last bit where they were makin out wasnt to great but still gets a B+
who authorized this?!
as the creator of the b&w drama theater series, i am appalled that you have the audacity, the sheer audacity, to... nevermind, i'm just kidding. i thought it turned out very well.
i felt the pupiless eyes, in a way, represented the blindness associated with christmas, a time meant for family and spirtuality, but instead a time when all we seem to see is presents, greed, gluttony, etc. we lose sight or what is important and that is what i felt this cartoon, as apparent in the pupiless eyes, represented. they also symbolized a departure from the original b&w drama theater, almost representing a different consciousness, a different mindset, but at the same time they followed the same logic outlined in the b&w drama theater charter.
(i am going for the maximum 4096 character review)
now let us examine the notion of a 'tribute.' what does a tribute imply and how does the idea of a tribute effect the context of the work? does it give it some new meaning, or elevate it in some way? we can gather that you are a fan or are in some way interested in the b&w drama theater. this is something i knew previously, and thus, i can not give an objective examination as my views are already tainted (not the best word). but to all other non-b&w drama theater entities, there is some mysterious, almost whimsical property inherent in the act of a tribute. is it emulation? what is emulation? perhaps the original b&w drama theater was nothing more then an emulation? maybe it was a tribute, even if on a subconscious level. a tribute to my youth, perhaps? to the ideas and concepts of my youth? the cartoons and sitcoms i once held so dear? perhaps b&w drama theater represents more then just ridiculousness, perhaps it represents the very fiber of childhood humor. which raises the question 'what is humor?' is humor something that can ever truly be grasped? we can further examine this by questioning the act of laughing. what causes laughter? it is a global phenomenon, one present at birth. why is this? what causes these reverse breaths? and why do i cough if i laugh too much? why should my throat be sore as a result of something as wonderful as laughter? is it a reminder?
but back to the cartoon. the most obvious visible departure, after the eyes, is the very use of lines. i prefer the brush, for it's unevenness. but in this cartoon, we can tell the author used the pencil and line tool. this results in much straighter lines. how does this effect us, the viewers? the structure of the background seems to conflict with the very storyline. we are witnessing a sort of spiral, yet we always see straight, even lines. the real world, as we know, is not outlined in straight black lines. does this support this cartoon? do we support this cartoon? and what is suppport. i must admit now that i have been writing this review for so long that i have completely forgotten what the cartoon looked like. were the lines straight? i think they were. but i cannot be sure.
anyways, i enjoyed this submission.
