Wow,
Now that was quite hilarious, not to mention original.

Thanks! I'm glad you think so :)
"The pictures... they move!"
While not as refined as your Spess Mehreen contribution*, I couldn't help but feel drawn in by the dark setting and witty dialogue. On the 4th rescreening the audience was going for the jugular and I just had to chainsword my way to the emergency exit/airlock. Bleeding eardrums aside (that's explosive decompression for you), it was an entertaining matinée.
Broadened my horizons indeed!
A possible pilot for "Devils in America"?

I'll post those DOA toons eventually; my computer kerploded and I'm between operating systems at the mo
... How do they talk?
Or drink for that matter? Their lower jaw slid back and forth, but never made an opening. In the end I really enjoyed the pun, subtle music, perspective flips (the sidewalk part), and the voicing, it matched the characters very well. It had some concept behind it, but mostly predictable stuff. I really enjoyed the fact that you actually had shading (unlike a lot of flashes), and the sound effects, definitely the sound effects.

When SRM has eaten things in the past I usually had things go into the top of their jaws. It doesn't hold up to much scrutiny but hey, cartoons. Glad you enjoyed the shot selection and audio - it was a lot of fun making sound effects with crap I just had lying around!
Pretty good
I really enjoyed your character models, they were pretty funny and entertaining especially with his mouth and all. but i did find it weird the mouth didnt open but maybe thats just me. The voices matched quite perfectly with the characters so well done there! Overall its a real good piece of animation !
Battosai810 responds:
Thanks! Their jaws are kind of an anomaly but they make for quick animating. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Well that was something I haven't seen often.
Pleasant animation to watch, original and funny.
- Artwork felt pretty original and looked good
- Humor was there, got a smile out of me
- Music choice for something like this was good
- However, I don't get the ending... selling your soul equals 9999 bills to pay? Don't get it... I don't get the point why he sent bills. Or is it just because he's evil?
- Voices could be better but they are alright
And wait a sec, how on earth they threw Satan to jail? o.O
Anyway, good work, keep it up!
4/5, 7/10
Battosai810 responds:
Well, they already had a bunch of bills to pay as you saw at the beginning of the cartoon. By the end of SRM's adventure (and in the time Cousin Mel has been out) the bills have piled up! And who else would bill you more than Satan?
Glad you enjoyed the toon, and thanks for the review!
