Very Cool

Very creative and cool, and it's good to see other mediums such as charcoal used once in awhile, it gave your piece a very unique look. Nice message as well, keep up the good work.

Captain responds:

Thanks man. I do like to experiment with mediums so there might be more of this or something similar in the future.

hahaha

The music really made the piece, as it's solemn sincerity contrasted so sharply with the humor. Short simple and sweet, very nice.

BillyNapalm responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed this one too.

Oh my god

I gotta say your humor is definitely controvercial, but genius, I haven't laughed so hard in ages (even if I feel a bit guilty about it.) It really does seem like we over commercialize what are supposed to be somber holidays, and you did a good job of pointing out therediculousness of it all. Sinister, but great. I've got to check out your other stuff now.

BillyNapalm responds:

Don't feel bad, it's satire! I'm not trying to ridicule the Holocaust or any wartime atrocities, I was taking aim at how ridiculous some local retailers are when the 11th rolls around.

Absolutely awesome

First off, great animation and drawing style. I was impressed by the visual layout of your scenes, especially in the house. I think that the humor really brought the story together and all I can say is I'm really looking forward to part two. You rock.

Jazza responds:

thanks man. the house took like a whole day to draw so i'm glad someone noticed it haha :P

nice

Good humor, quite funny, ubt not too over the top, The toaster bit was pretty good. Drawings were clean and good, but the anime style is a bit over used. That being said you did a decent job with it anyway. Nice voicework to Windtunnelarchives as well.

Jochio responds:

Thanks for the positive review.
Windtunnelarchives did a good job with hes role as jake!
i made this animation in about an afternoon, so Episode one wil be alot bigger!
The humor was adjusted though. putting in a trailer with corny jokes just makes it a bad trailer. overal it went pretty good!

Hahaha

Sorry I didn't watch and review this sooner. I've been gone from newgrounds for a few weeks. Good job on this one. It seems like your characters and animation are becoming more complex, and I can see your progress. Good choice of music for this one, and the story was fun to watch. Best of luck on your next production.

Abracadabra123 responds:

Thanks a lot El-Syd . I took my time to make this movie.

Nice

Random, funny, and fun to watch. The highly contrasted sharp visuals are the first things I noticed, it really matches the style of your genre well, The characters were great too, the skeleton had me laughing. Great voicework, and an all around good job. Sorry it took me so long to stop by and review this but I haven't been on Newgrounds in a couple weeks or so, things really look different here. Anyway great job, and please PM me whenever you realease more animations.

DeweyGland responds:

Thanks for the awesome review! Yeah it was a lot of work and it seems to have come together nicely. And thankfully you and others find it funny; if all else fails, leave them laughing.

I will definitely PM you with my next work.

okay

actually a pretty good stick movie, movement and voices were good and lipsynch was as well, the only thing is that the relatively small size of the screen seemed overwhelmed by the large ad at the bottom, I would suggest either making the movie larger, or getting rid of that particular ad.

ThemartianMan responds:

I cant get rid of it, I didnt put it there.

nice

An impressive showing of your skill of various mutimedia and graphic arts. I think you did a very good job of putting it all together in a very interesting way, and it definitely makes a good showpiece to show to prospective companies who might want to hire you as a graphic artist or animator.

RAWRoutLOWD responds:

Thanks appreciate the comment! Hopefully the company that I sent it to will like it.

heheh

Nice visual style to the drawings and good animation as well, the sense of humor was pretty amusing as well here and fairly unique. I liked the directors commentary at the end about the character sleeping in the previous days clothes, which was also pretty funny, nice voicework and lipsynch too. Keep it up.

CoolDrMoney responds:

Lip syncin was pretty borin an tedius but I got it done!

Thanks for the review chum!
