I was offended at how poorly you spell. "Seamen"?

"Well..."

submission: PoLOLitics

date: November 4, 2008

Just curious if you've ever - in your life - seen a sign that read 5.00$?

It's really outrageous to ruin what was a fairly insightful movie with the absolute dumbest typographical error a person can make.

The devil is in the details, and you really screwed it up. Apparently, by ignoring the 300 signs a day you see that show the dollar sign BEFORE the amount.

Good animation, fun idea, great ending. Very good. Just do 30 seconds of copy editing, please?

Score: 7

"Hmmm, halfway there."

submission: MGS - Life Alarm

date: August 19, 2008

Great concept, good animation, good timing, and script...

but terrible voice acting. I really liked it, but if the Colonel hadn't just sounded like a scratchy version of all other voices, it would have been better. Shop around a little, and this would have been a nine.

However, great work on this one. You carried the jokes out well, timed them well, and referenced the old commercials well. A very good job.

Score: 4

"A lot of work..."

submission: Awesome Video Games Ep22

date: March 26, 2008

and very few jokes.

The shakey camera has gotten VERY, VERY, VERY old. Your writing is stale, your ideas are gone, and now the quirky annoying things are just by themselves, still very annoying.

Score: 6

"Good effort, just not followed through."

submission: Blood Type

date: February 28, 2008

Spelling things incorrectly is a HUGE no-no for a competition. You did a lot of work, did a lot of very good work... but the fact that you couldn't just paste your script into Microsoft Word shows a lack of follow through.

I'm not even disappointed in the fact that the quality worsened throughout. It's just that the most obvious details slipped through the cracks. It's a good project with a good story. You really deserve decent marks for this. It's just that it could have been great, and it looked sloppy instead.

Score: 8

"You fixed helicopters old problems and made it fun"

submission: Metro.Siberia

date: February 18, 2008

Helicopter was always a frustrating game, because you could easily find yourself totally out of place with no room to correct yourself. You really fixed this. The controls are incredibly smooth, the backgrounds very fun, and the dynamic scenery kept me guessing. It felt like an old sonic game or something. A very simple concept that didn't try to do anything epic, but made a really fun game.

Good controls + good theme + varying levels of difficulty. Great game!

Score: 4

"What am I missing here?"

submission: Lolcat History (Part 1/6)

date: February 17, 2008

The introductory audio was almost inaudible. Maybe I missed something there?

It just seems that you're trying to cash in on someone else's (old) joke. I know you can't just give a story away in the first 5 seconds, but who is this cat, and why do I care to watch him? The movie went incredibly slowly, and didn't reward my patience. The voice acting was AWFUL and dry. I hope you don't have all 6 of these done already. If they're anything alike, they'll need more work.

Score: 5

"How deep!"

submission: The English Paper

date: January 15, 2008

He had a paper assigned, and he got it in on time.

GodDAMN that's one fascinating plot. Next movie, maybe we can see you eating a sandwich successfully?

The animation was above-average. It showed good wok, and good attention to detail. The characters were emotive and their motivations well-portrayed. Too much time was spent showing the kid at his desk in several hues, but whatever. You had that kickass plot to relate, right? Haha

Not bad work animating, just not entertaining in the least. This just wasn't a good story.

Score: 3

"Not a chance."

submission: The One Layer Collab

date: January 15, 2008

Did you all just get together and say "Let's make a collab... but make it worse than the usual ones."?

That was seriously horrible. If you're going to put an impressive limit on it as in the single layer, at least have something impressive to show for it. The majority of these animations were awful.

I'd suggest cutting out half the artists who are only morphing colored lines through several frames, and concentrating on the work of people doing actually interesting things. This really was a huge disappointment. Somewhere along this process, someone needed to point out that half of this was garbage.

Score: 6

"What word was that?"

submission: Gamer Kids: NSFW

date: August 2, 2007

How exactly does "reticle" become pronounced "ret-ih-cyoole"?

Not bad for a cartoon, but what?
