This was very informative. I learned a lot about the collapse and I have you to thank. This was awesome and I like school projects were like as a kid! Bored in class days would be compensated.
I really like the edition that you used in this, and the little animated in the beginning. It's just an excellent job.
It's refreshing to see an informational video on Newgrounds.
You did a good job on the 'educational' aspect of it, and you presented the information in a way that it didn't drag. I liked your use of background music throughout the entire "documentary." I'd say the best part of it was obviously in the beginning, since it was animated.
The animation that was in this was pretty good, though there's one thing I have to nitpick. 0:56 - the 'economy' falling down didn't fall down immediately after the shot, and the animation of it falling down should have been quicker. This may just be me nitpicking, though I personally found it very noticeable; actions like that have to be animated on ones, though I understand that you were short on time when making this.
For what it is - an educational presentation - I'd say it's very entertaining. It's rare that I see any educational presentations with any entertainment value. One of the big pros of this is that since it's entertaining, the information being taught might stick to the viewer's mind, if that makes sense.
While I do blame any wrong looking animation on my limited amount of time, it's not really an excuse since I could have polished it up before posting it online, but I didn't. I'm glad you liked my overall presentation, I really only had a little bit of time to plan it out, as most of the time was spent researching and actually putting the thing together. And yeah, I totally agree with information sticking better if it's presented in an entertaining way. I always try to be entertaining with my educational stuff, even if I have to resort to lame puns. Thanks for the review and I'm glad you liked it!
A really good documentary! The source of the information were good and your voice was entertaining. But, you should add some animation or visual effect.
I liked some of the quirky little charms and honestly, I wish that the flash was filled with more of them because it seems kind of dry the way it is. I get that it's an informative assignment but I wish there were more entertaining things in the flash to make it seem less assignment like and more real for a lack of a better word.
It feels that there were obviously sequences that were meant to just be humor like the internet killing the economy and sequences that were meant to be just information like what seemed like a bunch of slides of just text. I really wish that the two would be intertwined more like adding more humor into the slides or maybe explaining some of the terms very in laymen terms.
It is because of the isolated incidents in the flash that I feel that it doesn't really achieve greatness. It's too heavy on hard facts and doesn't really do anything new or interesting with them. This may be great as a school project, but not as an all out flash.

I agree that it can get really boring at those points when it's just text. I had planned to have some more animation during those segments and to include some humorous things in those animations, but I ran out of time to work so it had to be scrapped. I could have took the extra time after it was presented to add in those things before posting to newgrounds, so I guess mark that up to my laziness. Thanks for the review!
