Reviews for "Shed a Tear for Terrorism"

this really makes no scence, what is this again?

now i understand that yall both have a broken hand, yet yall still drew a flash, not bad on the artwork and graphics. as far as the story goes, it's just plain weird. how does the guy get the gun on the plane? why does he shed a tear then does what he does? why is this another reference to the 9-11 attack and haven't we suffered enough of it to already last a lifetime or two? what does the beginning have to do with this? i just don't get it.

Silver-Star responds:

This is a short on terrorism. It is not factual, but it does portray 9/11 attacks. It is just different acts of terrorism. Yes I have a broken hand and Tim has a broken arm. He sheds a tear out of sorrow for all the people he is about to kill.

I was a bit disapointed...

Listen I feel music is one of the most important asspects to an animation and I love the Red Hot Chili Peppers as much as the next man, but this was not the right song for what you submited. Furthermore, I felt your usage of terrorism was quite manipulative; since as you've admited this actually has very little to do with the events as they actually took place. When you use terrorism (and particularally 9/11) in a flash your invoking feelings and ideas that are very powerful, it is not something you should do lightly. I felt that you did not bring anything new to the table, just played off old emotions. On the plus side your artwork is stunning and I'm sure with the talent you have you could (and will) create amazing submisions that I would love.

okay?

nice drawings and backgrounds, but i bet this might stir up some unneeded controversy. the plot behind this one was a bit bad and some of the points probably could offend some people.

A bit corny for my taste

It ended too abruptly as well. The first few scenes were good, but it just went downhill from there.

Besides, since when do terrorists look like anime characters and can smuggle guns onto planes?

another MEH

You know the orginal reason why they hate us is because we have bases in arab territory. The video was bull to me and i was confused about its purpose.
