Great stuff
Well done! You managed to make Kevin Rudd amusing.
Reviews for "Parliament Deathmatch"
always a pleasure!
Your works never fail to cheer me up! It's amazing how much you've improved over the years, from a basic knowledge of "how to draw" style, anime inspired characters, to stuff like this. Your comedy is always spot on, and the music you use/compose is odd, but charming. Thank you, Mr. Voigt for your effort and work. It is very much appreciated.
5/5!

thanks a lot!
i thought i'd try something different with the music this time, i went for 80s video game/adventure series, but then church organs at the end.
Ummm...
Yeaaaah
Great graphics
Fantastic animation
Good sounds
Random, odd and mildly entertaining

... I don't know how you do it, I really don't know Chris. But EVERY SINGLE MOVIE you've been giving us the past year has been crazy awesome, clever and funny on a whole new level. This movie is no exception. I wish I could somehow take your skills and talent, bottle it up and sell it; I'd make a fortune! But allow me detail my review:
- Graphics are great, as usual. Great, detailed facial expressions WITH perfect lip syncing (which even has chin movement, which is pretty hard!) is a trademark of your animations and, again, this movie is no exception. Sparse but precise and well done animation and nice character design (they really look like politicians) round up the positive aspects of this movie.
The only aspects of the graphics of this animation that I felt could have been slightly better would have been a more diverse range of camera angles and better 3-D animation in the beginning , though the movie doesn't suffer from either.
- Sound-wise, well, silly as hell, but in a good way. The music was utterly simple and silly, like in a old B movie (I mean, c'mon, Organs?!) but worked, somehow, beautifully, and the sound effects were even more silly (someone saying what sounded like 'Woosh!', for heavens sake!), but again, it's sufficiently campy that it's funny.
Voice acting was, as usual, spot-on. I mean, both you and Liam have very distinctive voices, so I recognize them from previous cartoons, but your both quite talented as voice actors, so that's not a big issue.
- Story-wise, well, crazy awesome as usual. But slightly too short and coming off too much like a one joke gag, without an steady increase of crazy moments which is norm in your work, such as in Don't Worry, Son, or more development of a story and/or jokes. So it's not really your best movie in this department, sadly...
... BUT, it's still very funny and 'epic funny' too, which is why even in this, one of your weaker movies, I still have huge, mad grin and clinch my fists with joy when I see the great payoff! You always seem to come up with some genuinely creative, original and funny way to turn the mundane into the awesome.
So overall, a very good movie, with all the polish you usually apply in the graphics and sound departments (which means that these are great aspects of your movie!), but slightly lacking in the story / joke department, but only slightly.
Cheers and kudos!

thanks vert for the really detailed review!
when you wrote this i hadn't posted an explanation in the description section, but in a nutshell its an attempt to get on to a tv show here in australia that asks for 1 minute satirical videos, so this is in fact TOO long by 15 seconds, i'm hoping they'll still play it.
the comment is about leadership speculation and stuff, the snake woman deputy is considered a better politician than the leader (who was more of an experiment (in australia we have a saying where if you become someone's experiment you become their guinea pig)).
OMFG!!! hilariousity!
LOL X 100000000 that was funny as, im an Australian, you made kevin rudd a bloody guniea pig. HAHAHAHAHAHH!!!!!! i cant stop laughing! then he got eaten by her! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
