Reviews for "Pursuit of the Falcon"

Awesome.

Animation was great,
The movie was very well done :D 10/10 5/5.

Did you do the voices yourself? o.O

th1rt3en responds:

Chewie's sfx are taken from the film
I did C-3PO (although I can't act) and messed with the files to give a robotic feel to them
Han and Leia are from two voice actors that are on Newgrounds

god ur a dork

but good vid though

Nice Work

Really nice work here man
It's smooth, well colored and animated
Just looked like you got a bit lazy when they were playing through the canyon, there was less detail there.
But GW nonetheless

th1rt3en responds:

It was due to earlier background work and 2D limitations. I was never good at backgrounds and just never got around to updating them. Thanks!

Absolutely Awesome

Wow, what a great piece of animation - you've captured the entire setup of the whole Star Wars saga within the piece. I love the drawing style for everyone, how it makes them seem really detailed, even though the characters themselves look quite simple, when I sit back and think about it - almost akin to those drawn by LegendaryFrog.

I'd say that you need to get some work from the voice acting side of things - While Chewbacca was spot on, you needed a little more work with regards to the voices of C-3PO and Leia, while Han at times sounds more like Lando Calrissian, especially in the early going, when his voice is higher pitched, due to the running repairs that he's having to make.

I'm not sure about all of the spins that the Falcon and the Tie-Fighters pull off during their part in the beginning - it's flashy, but does every ship need to do exactly the same manoeuvre? Perhaps varying it will make it seem a little more natural. Besides, flashy stuff like that kind of undoes the Family Guy joke "Boy, he knows some moves!" gag, when the Falcon lists slightly to the left. I know it's been and gone, but you might want to make other parts of Star Wars, who knows?

Thanks for the lengthy review!

First off, I lack artistic skill so my characters are limited to simple and my ships are limited to whatever diagrams and photos I can find to vector them. The Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels helped out there. With 3PO I found a drawing-for-animation-guide that helped greatly; if you notice he has pneumatic tubes and extra parts for elbows and shoulders, making him a pain to animate (but fun too).

For the character, the eyes are reminiscent of LF's older style, and I kept them pupil-less just because that's how I first envisioned the characters. I have another flash that's coming out soon that uses normal white eyes with pupils that looks much better.

A lot of the moves are either shot for shot, or just made based on the 2D limitations. I did the movies in the first scenes YEARS ago, and they were a bit cooler back then because they were a bit harder to do. Besides, that's all I wanted to do with an X-Wing when I was a little kid: fly and flip around everything. :P

And yes, I may do more SW scenes, I have an AT-AT walk cycle that I've been dying to use so I may make the Battle of Hoth, or the Assault on Death Star II.

Again, thanks for the feedback!

wow

wow like omg that was soo cool XDXD
thanks man made my day has that
5/5
