Reviews for "The Last Hour: Chapter 9"

Fuck this.. lol Sorry for my French.

Not good at all..

Animation/Grahpics - The animation was very glitchy and rough. The space ship was drawn very nicely, but that was about it. Everything else may have actually been a step down from your other submissions.

Story - I honestly don't know why I didn't give this flash a 0/10. I am a nice person though. I also think that the score of this flash should be somewhere around a 1.5 or so. It's really that bad. No story at all. I can't even comment more then that.

Audio - Some music and nothing more. It was probably the only reason you received any points from me though. Other then that.. there isn't anything to comment on.

Overall, this is probably one of the most negative reviews I have left lately, but the flash deserves everything that I have said and probably a lot more then that. There wasn't anything here really so I don't see what I can review on.

vast improvements over the last one

Visuals: finally some animation, too bad it was so short, all of it was drawn well, and made me excited for more bit of a let down to be cut off so abruptly, but i've come to expect it from you

Audio: the background music made up for the lack of dialogue, and i quite liked the tune, and the change in the intro's voice acting did improve the opening sequence

Overall: way way too short, make it longer, other than that it was looking good until the premature ending keep at it

FFS!!

nothing happens!!
there is never enough in these short short clips to tell a story.
stop cutting them short and extend them.
work on the voice acting, get other people to help you out cause you think you're awesome but you're not.
you have loads of work to do if you want to walk about claiming that..
keep at it or just stop, please...!!!

Hey

I know you've doubt my work before, but let make show you one final movie to redeem myself. Let me show you for one last time that I do listen to my reviewers and I do respect you. I'd admit my old work wasn't all that good, and I was just learning, but after working hard for countless hours I finally bring you something i'm proud of. This is the last chapter of the season for this series. Let me tell you some improvements on the movie. THERE IS NO INTRO, NONE AT ALL. NO ANNOYING BORING INTRO. It just starts right away, it is exactly 3 minutes long. Full of intense action, better voice acting, great music that syncs with the movie. It's almost like a music video. Much better drawings and special effects and you will see that. Frame by Frame and more. I think this movie will change your mind about me, and I hope I can get back some of my old viewers who I upset. Please give this last movie a chance. If you think it is spam or crappy you can block me and never ever watch my movies again. If however you think it's acceptable, please give it a review i'd appreciate it. Please, please watch and review it. This is my last movie for the season. I can promise you it will be a vast improvement from my other movies, heck you won't even think I did it, but yeah it's all me. I'm sorry that I wasn't too nice to my reviewers. Please forgive me. I was arrogant and wrong.

Last review

The animation and the voice acting is better but the story is non-existant. Have the movie explain things, not the boring starwars rip off intro. Is that the emperor speaking when he has 12? I don't need an award winning acknowledgement to be quoted everytime i see a film.

why do people keep saying my voice sounds preteen. dude i am 20!!!!! haven't you heard my intros they sound like 81 year old men. !!

...

... right, this might sound a little harsh, but for reasons that will come forth, this is definitivly my last and final review for your "The Last Hour" series. So I'm going to kindly ask that you no longer send out any more PM's requesting reviews, ok? On the other hand, I will give you a detailed review.

Right, let's start with the good. The voice acting for this movie shows improvement when compared to previous efforst, specially in regards to recording quality. However, it still sounds 'forced' and is exagerated, not to mention the fact that your voice actor has the voice of a pre-teen.

Also, the animation and drawing quality of this movie is a definitive improvement over the last movie I saw. The drawings were much more detailed and overall better, the look of the planet was pretty good, even the ship had some style.

However, if I'm not mistaken the leg animation at the end was traced, right? I so, then I should tell you that tracing dosen't really improve animation techniques and you should really try to get the hang of things without using it. If not, then I'm sorry for the accusing on doing so and, in which case, I'm greatly impressed by how your animation has improved. It's much, much better than before (although the ship could use better animation).

The biggest problem with this movie, however, is it size. It's short. It's beyond short. It's mindboggling short, made worse by the fact that the intro is probably longer than the movie although, thankfully, you've included the vital skip button.

However, the fact that after 9 chapters you're still making movies that ridiculously short, despite being told before by several reviews that that is completly unacceptable, means I'm forced to conclude that you simply don't care. Which is a shame, since you have shown significant evolution and I belive that you can become a good flash artist in the future.

But this disregard for your viewers means that I've stoped caring too. So I'm going to give you one last piece of advice: make your movies longer. It's as simple as that. It dosen't have to last 10 minutes, but a movie as short as yours are have to have something significant to be real movies.

Allow me to explain. A movie that lasts twenty seconds can be considered reasonable (for example) if it is a humourous movie, or is extremely intense (action wise), or has beggining, development and an end (there are other possibilities too). Your movies, in comparison, are all ridiculously short developments of an ongoing story, having none of the previous elements.

So, in short, you really have improved and I wish you luck, but I'm not going to review any other movie from your "The Last Hour" series. Please don't PM me again requesting a review as such, unless you want to be blocked.

I'm sad you feel that way, but Chapter 10 is going to change your mind. I won't PM you or anything anymore, but you will notice it, so you can review it if you want to or not, but it will be noticed. Jaiba productions won't take short cuts. No unions and long hours of work will produce things that will rival the best. Chapter 10 may just be the last chapter of the season. So you all will get your wish of us to stop making movies and develop more skills. But before we do that. Chapter 10 (Redemption) will prove just that, we will redeem our selves like the Phoenix we will rise again, and change your mind.
