I know nothing of the new movie nor have any opinion on it, but I still think that particular picture couldn't help but add further backlash to this whole thing. All the other patients looked either happy or okay, but leaving the one where that patient's eyes are nearly rolled into her upper lids make me wonder if they had any second thoughts about sharing it with the world. Maybe they thought, "If we stand waaay over here, it'll be okay". I don't know.

There's nothing like taking photos in front of dying kids. In all seriousness, Everything was good except the mic quality, kinda made the voice acting hurt the ears a bit. Other than that, good job.
Psychopath responds:
My apologies, we currently don't have the funds necessary to get good studio equipment. This has been a large factor of holding us back from pursuing many of our projects. We hope to get better equipment in the future.
As a writer I find myself a bit confused by the movie, but entertained nonetheless. I was never much of a Ghostbusters fan when I was young (or even now) so the point of this movie, if there was one other than laughter, was somewhat lost on me. Still, I was thoroughly entertained and in the end I guess that's what matters most. Keep working on it, and I look forward to your next project!
Psychopath responds:
Hey thanks! It's great that you're looking forward to my future work. To stay updated on my work, you should follow me here: http://psychopath.newgrounds.com/follow
I'm glad that in despite of your confusion that you enjoyed the movie. The origin of this actually comes from a 4chan post that was written in September & this parody is an adaptation of that post.
The point was that their decision to go to Tufts Medical Center & take photos "with" dying kids was nothing more than a hollow, insincere PR stunt. If you look at the photo of the kid we've dubbed "Huey Freeman", you'll see he's tucked away in the background while everyone else mugs in front of the camera; it's almost like he doesn't actually matter.
I like the smoothness of the tweens and the low-quality talking heads but I found the animation kind of hard to follow and tedious at points. Behind the humorously bad technical aspect I didn't feel like there was any more intelligent humor beneath it.
Psychopath responds:
Hey, my shitty plan worked. I'm glad you liked the smooth animation; I felt as though that since I'm using Tweening anyway that I should animate it in 60FPS to compensate since it was mostly a rush job. I'm sorry that the satire didn't have more appeal, fellow Craptonian.
You might like the newspaper articles; to read them, pause at -0:43, -0:33 & -0:21. Be prepared though, we get pretty edgy on some of them, the New Pork Times in particular. I spelled Paul Feig's name wrong by mistake but it is the New Pork Times, they're bound to make errors.
