Good. Very pretty.

Good job, man. I was looking forward to this. The improved art really stood out, but so did the overdone animation of the characters. Don't think they needed to sway so much. You must have just kept assuming you weren't doing enough. And as you already acknowledged, a little short on the funny, huh?

Otherwise, very good.

Oney responds:

you pretty much hit the nail on the head, yeah next time will be better i pwomise

It was an experience

The background art was amazing in some places. The fan in the maternity room was extremely well-done. In fact, the entire Exorcist (or whatever) joke was mostly great. I love how the mother was fine, just reading a magazine.

Then things went down-hill.

I don't think much of the narrator's voice, either. Also, why is he alive to give the narration if he already had gray hair in 1958? I thought most of the jokes fell-flat, and that made it even more offensive when you portrayed Mays as a child-sex ring operator and retard (it wouldn't be *AS* bad if it were funny). Mays seemed like a nice guy and that just seemed wrong on multiple levels. Ultimately, I took points off for most of the video just not being funny. Sorry, dude. Just work on it a little more. You could still have something with this.

thejuiceizloose responds:

Eh, the doctor's gray hair? Let's just say he's seen some shit man, but has lived to tell the tale. Much like Anderson Cooper. And as far as the offensive points, we were mainly attempting to say that Mays was so caught up in selling that other people just didn't get him. Which was why his teachers failed him, but that same thing has happened to many geniuses across the board. Einstein failed math as a youth for example. But still, despite the intent of the joke, it seemed to come across differently so that's something to look at. But yea, there are plenty of things to work on for the next one, and obviously figuring out how to better utilize our voice actors is priority number one. Thanks for the review.

Both icons, only one mass-murderer.

I gave this a zero for your poor [and insulting] logic (see end) and failure to acknowledge history. The blood was appropriate. For your reference, The UK TIMES wrote an article on The REAL Che Guevera citing primary sources, including Che himself:

.....................................
.....

[...] They turned a blind eye to anything that did not fit in with their idealised image of Guevara. A prolific diarist, Guevara nevertheless wrote vividly of his role as an executioner. In one passage he described the execution of Eutimio Guerra, a peasant and army guide.

"I fired a .32calibre bullet into the right hemisphere of his brain which came out through his left temple," was Guevara's clinical description of the killing. "He moaned for a few moments, then died."

This was the first of many "traitors" to be subjected to what Guevara called "acts of justice".

THERE WAS SELDOM ANY TRIAL. "I carried out a very summary inquiry and then the peasant Aristidio was executed," he wrote about another killing. "It is not possible to tolerate even the suspicion of treason."

[...]

But his first job after the rebels marched in triumph into Havana in 1959 was running a "PURIFYING COMMISSION" and supervising executions at Havana's La Cabana prison.

"He would climb on top of a wall . . . and lie on his back smoking a Havana cigar while watching the executions," the author quotes Dariel Alarcon Ramirez, one of Guevara's former comrades in arms, as saying.

In a six-month period, Guevara implemented Castro's orders with zeal, putting 180 prisoners in front of the firing squad after summary trials, according to Machover. Jose Vilasuso, an exiled lawyer, recalled Guevara instructing his "court" in the prison: "Don't drag out the process. This is a revolution. Don't use bourgeois legal methods, THE PROOF IS SECONDARY. We must act through conviction. We're dealing with a bunch of criminals and assassins."

Stencil Hitler next, then superimpose the Wal*mart logo. He was a mass murderer; Wal*mart sells cheap stuff; both icons. The correlation fits there as well.

Mogly responds:

You gotta see it from my point of view mate, and many other peoples. Many are ignorant to bits of history like this that tell the true story of Che. Like I said in the animation, he is now primarily an icon that offers little value behind the image, wouldn't you agree?

Atleast in your eyes - see how he has become just a 'faceless' icon to many- which is how people can walk around with his face on their shirts, with his poster on there wall, how I could create this animation even; all in ignorance, not knowing squat. You see?

Kinda pissed

I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing did. If this is some kind of "message film" [cartoon], you're not very good at it.

On the other hand, if it was just a guy envisioning the birth of society, then it works very well. 8 pts so my reviews will stop being removed.

CircusFreakFlash responds:

no... this isnt a "message" film. I hate when people try to preach to me through their flashes.

You're messed up

You're demented. But I'm not knocking you down for that. Funny voices can't fix stale dialog. It really didn't make any sense and I couldn't pick up on any cohesion between the different parts of the story. It's like you stitched together 5 short stories written by perverted first-graders--all of whom work on the show Family Guy.

LazyMuffin responds:

You either can't add one plus one or you didn't watch the parts.
It has a very understandable storyline.

Huh.

It was okay, I guess. The jokes weren't very funny, but the animation was good. Don't hold out on Islam, though. There's plenty of material to work with there, so I'll know if you're being cowardly.

Slackman responds:

At least you liked the animation. As far as Islam goes, I've considered it, but it just isn't worth the risk. Provided the furor that happened with those cartoons that infuriated the Islamic awhile back, I figured that leaving Islam alone was probably in my best interest. Call me cowardly if you like, but I'm afraid it just isn't gonna happen any time soon. Sorry!
