"Interpret our own Meaning"

Alright, I'm trying to grasp the imagery here. A man living in a house (with a peace-sign window on i) is witness to a freaky event: lightning bolts strike the ground, springing up in their places tall sky scrapers, all which eventually dissolve under the heat of the sun. Hmm.... I'm not sure what this means to me particularly, but man, the art was really creative.

Pretty good

It was okay. VERY sketchy, and not in a cool way like a lot of animation out there is but it was enjoyable. Music got kind of annoying and I didn't get the story line or message. Something about God destroying everything and everyone except those who seek peace? I dunno, nice work anyway.

I sure hate preloaders that start themselves

...especially if that means the movie just loops endlessly.
But I'm not reviewing a preloader, so I'll get to the point. It was nice and stylized, like the description says... but without an actual concrete story, the viewer has to rely solely on visuals, and when the visuals are just a choppy pen and paper animation, the viewer suffers. Especially if it's not shaded or colored or anything, you know? You're not going to get anywhere on style alone. The whole 'interpret your own meaning' attitude only goes so far... like another reviewer said, it's a good idea, and you use your style well... but you need to add more elements to it to make something great out of it. Even if all you did was add more drawings to make it fluid, color the original drawings, or just add some shading, it would help the flash stand out better.
Also, next time, please, don't use the auto-starting preloader. I like being able to decide when I want it to start, not it starting when it feels like it. Just a thought, though, I didn't let something like that effect my opinion on the rest of it. Good luck with future endeavors.

VERY NICE

Its artowrk its original and awesome, but it demosntrates no particular FLASH knowledge. for example no preloader.

very good, too choppy

it was very choppy, but other than that it was really good...
