Nice animation.

It doesn't replay correctly after the second run. And the music drops out after the third. It was a nicely animated short.

Decent animation, but way too short, & random

Hello,

I really dug the whole "retro" 1950's cartoon feel you had going on.
The animation itself was fairly solid, with the exception of when the guy carrying the bag is walking to the cafeteria, which wasn't as good as it should have been...

The narrative was too random, and the cartoon itself was really short.
You didn't put a replay button which also put me off.
And it ended really abruptly.

I know you wanted to lampoon the columbine massacre, but frankly I don't see the point you were trying to make...

Was this supposed to be some vague critique of the U.S. army?

Thanks,
- Celx

Pretty strange

Well, there's not much plot to this, with a rather interesting style of animation. I can see the parody of the more traditional style of cartoons, reminiscent of the early Mickey Mouse drawings. I'm not entirely sure why you've put the "Upper Class Carl Johnson" in there, because the moustache is really pointless and when it was coupled with the plot, or lack thereof. Was this some sort of bombing run?

I'm not entirely convinced by this piece, but it does show that you've got some decent animation skills, but you could certainly do with backing it up with some good plot writing skills. There are plenty of people out there that are looking for cartoonists to animate their pieces, so just start borwsing the forums and you will find what you're looking for. Good luck with that!

Random

The graphical style is interesting and looks like old disney cartoons from the 40s, which is pretty nice, by the way.

The music could also be from one of those old cartoons and it fits very nice to the style of the graphics.

Too bad the story is kind of random and doesn't make that much sense. Maybe the "missing reel" wasn't that good of an idea. Also, the Carl Johnson with the monocle at the end didn't fit in the flash too good either and only adds to the randomness of this submission.

So, while the graphics and sound are nice the story sadly is not, which is why I can only give you 6 out of 10 stars. :(
