Reviews for "FLEX CALIBUR"

it was okay but there wasn't enough positive themes or messages about pro-LGBT microaggressions in society.

don't forget to like and subscribe to some teenager looking at a screen.

BTW THIS WAS FANTASTIC GOD DAMN WHAT KIND OF SLAVES DID YOU HAVE TO BUY TO MAKE THIS PICTURE *banned for saying real shit*

Ugly style.

It's really hard to be impressed by the 12 year-old attempting sailor vocabulary, ultra violence and the smooth animation when the art design looks like the excrement of Jim Henson. It's really easy to make your animation buttery smooth when the art is designed to be as unchallenging as possible to even the most cheap overseas MS Paint sweatshop labor one could hire.

It took a whole studio of professionals to make this, and they couldn't even stay on model through all seven minutes of it.

There's this guy named Miguel Coutto here on Newgrounds, he's new to animation, you should ask him for lessons.

While we understand this style may not be for everyone and look easy... the entire short was animated, colored and composited by a team of 2 people in their very little spare time over several months. So you're right, anyone can do it if they put the time and effort in. And we want more people to keep doing it, making your own films is the most important way to get better at animation and storytelling.

Good shit

The only redeeming quality is that it's well animated. Nice and fluid.

As far as the design, it looks as if the coked-up morons who created King Star King decided to commission a video idea out to the creators of OK KO.

Which is to say, it takes every awful thing thing about the kind of animated shows that Adult Swim runs at two a.m. on weekdays-- the intentionally disgusting visuals, the poor handling of blood even when the violence is intentionally senseless, the "mature" subject matter and language that's actually only appealing to 13 year olds and people high off their ass, and worst of all the awful talk-singing that such shows somehow manage to squeeze in even when it's unnecessary-- and puts it in an unfitting visual style meant to be appealing for children 9-12.

And it's just a real shame because the quality of the animation shows that the team behind it is quite competent.
