Reviews for "That Mean Olde Villain #2"
Nice short but flickering in low was horrid
I was okay with this piece the story followed pretty well and worked for me. I just found the flickering a bit annoying especially since you had it set to low. In high quality mode its a bit more manageable but I still have a headache. I loved the lines and the old camera style splotches though.
Also telephone poles were called telegraph poles in the Ole days not telephone poles.
Original Idea!
I thought you did very well with your story. It seemed that your character was from the "Old West". It was during the delivery process of his mail that I saw a more modern life style. Still, I liked this very much and I liked how long it was. You put a lot of thought into it.
Not bad, but some minor improvements would help.
Overall, a decent submission. The sound was spot on, as well as most of the visual elements. There were, however, some problems which prevented this from becoming excellent.
First of all, some jokes were too drawn out, especially the delivery joke. Anything that draws the audience away from the main character or plot line for too long risks loosing their attention. That's not to say they were good jokes, but there were some definite points that seemed superfluous.
Then there was the text. Pretty much every written element (I shudder to think what you would have done, had there been dialogue) seemed totally out of place. This is supposed to be Vaudeville/Ragtime, The jokes in the background are supposed to be witty and understated. Satire and Sarcasm work well, there. "OMG A SIGN!!!" is neither witty, nor understated. Then little things like finding a font that fit and capitalization errors dealt the coup de gracé to any text-based jokes.
I know, I'm just complaining, and this is mostly nitpicking, but only because this could have been an above-average submission, had these little changes been made. as it stands.....
Meh. A seven was generous.

we are not all perfect but I do understand your point. You know what the main problem is when animating. You never know whether the joke is either drawn out, unfunny, or if you are just used to it.
Eh?
Good, bit long though...
It was good, funny, just was like too long , it needed less sneaking and more shooting! It was Ok altoghether just could've been better, I think that the bunny part was hilarious though!^_^
