Reviews for The Life Of A Punk

[punkrockjaybird]

Cheers and Beers from BFE...

First off, I actually do understand about the whole jock and cop BS.... happens all the time down here in po-dunk TX. Yeah, the fashion is kinda crap, but fairly accurate. Brit punx (and yeah, it's PUNX) got clothing from sex shops... it was kinda their thing, Except the Clash brought up the whole military stuff. American punx kinda got theirs from the greasers, and bikers. A bit less colorful. On the one hand, the clothing is one way to make a statement without saying a word... but it is not a nesessity. It would be easy to be offended by the steriotypes in this movie, yet to me, it's far more disturbing reading the pure crap that these people are giving you. It's kinda stupid. Normal looking cats call street punx "fashion punks" and the OI! bands call the people without 10ft tall mohawks and studded leathers "poseurs": and so on and so forth. No, I don't like Anti-Flag all that much, they are kinda sell-outs, but that don't mean you can't listen to em... the band themselves ain't half bad(musically speaking). They wouldn't even flaked out in Dallas like a year ago cause the venue wasn't big enough and cancelled two days before the show. I'd suggest some other bands like the ones who came in from Austin to save the show... the casualties and The Unseen... along with some classics like the Exploited, cocksparrer, and the Circle Jerks. I'd like to see some more of your work when you do get a little more involved... but nice effort.

ah

One thing you got wrong was the jock thing. Anti flag is an ok band. The american punk thing,I think thats more of Street punk. The a with the circle around it,thats anarchist. (althow im sure you know this). THe pot thing,not all of us do pot. Im glad you didnt put sum41 or any of that stupid poser shit (althow i admit the poser shit showed me into the real stuff). If it wasnt for the jock thing this would get a ten. but i give a seven because i like some,not all,some of the stuff you did and didnt do.

I give you some cred.

But... american... british... wtf man!? I understand the emo part.. too many people have some fucking confusion there. Anti-Fag? Anti-flag is a bitch band that kicked us outta thier show for smoking.

Other than that.

Drink, Fight, and fuck.

Crap.

First off I agree with deathwing43, damit hes right! second... you seriously need to research on what punk is really about. Not abotu ur hair, ur crappyhair dye, or fucking hottopik(GODAMIT HOTTOPIK SUCKS, is the comercialization of a movement and an insult). Its about revolutioon, peace, anrchy, and equality, its abour fighting for human rights, and thee poor aboloshing the capilast at charge, and bringing light the truth about the corrupted system, its not about randomly being thrown in jail or what not. Yes punks do get thrown in jail, but the only reasoncforthis is because when we prtest we get silenced, now THAT should have been put in ur animation, to teach ppl who watch this about whats going on. Real punks bands these days are almost extinct really, stay true punk bands that boikot the system, and make everything DIY and create their own society, while in the underground are mostly in European countries, bands like Eskorbuto, Los Muertos De Cristo, SIn DIos, and SOME punk bands in amerika, o and lets not forget south amerika, no spikes, no 50 dollar pants/shoes, no bullshit, no record label, all straight up the real deal; revolution. So to finish it up, your animation was just streotyping to a really high level, and making punk look like another type of person, so if u were gona do the life a punk I expected revolution, protests, and DIY ethics, not this crap.

Get off ur ass and hit the streets for godsakes, and learn about what is really going on!

Okay, the Straw's been broken.

I'm tired of seeing some poser ass pieces of shit who think just because they listen to Anti-Flag and shit makes them punk, and this Flash Movie is just showing that you're stereo-typing different kinds of punks, jocks, and emo kids, believe me, that isn't the lifestyle of a punk, Hell, Punk is fucking dead, it's become a stale fucking cartoon that needs to be taken off the fucking air already. I truly do hope you add this to your little description, calling me a faggot or something, I truly would laugh at the concept, and feel quite honored,

Oh, and by the way, it's spelt punks, you fucking dumbass, not punx, people like you need to learn some serious shit about punks, and now, without further procrastination, I shall tell you.

Punk: Once thought of as the poor ass people up in Boston who had to sew up Plaid pants just to keep warm and hope to maybe find some leather to perhaps make a jacket out of, is now being stereo-typed, Plaid pants are now being sold and mass-produced world wide, kids who think they're punk because they listen to Anti-Flag and the Sex Pistols, are buying these pants and flaunting around like little school girls, here's another lesson, REAL PUNKS DON'T SPEND 50 DOLLARS ON ONE PAIR OF PANTS!

Hell, I could buy like, 5 pairs of Regular Jeans at that price, AND they're more comfortable too, so hell, I'd rather do that, stop being a fucking poser, you fucking tard.

BYEEEEE
