You're entering a really tough genre, a psychotic mix of film noir and the thoughts of men. And, as you should know after making so many animations, you're always going to get heavy criticism.
But don't mlet that drag you down. I found it a really interesting flash, very creative, very well-executed. You got my 5, buddy.
You make a Film Noir that stands out amongst the stickmen and bad movies that NG usually recieves. . . the perfect balance of music and style. . . you really know what you're doing, I knew that ever since I saw Aura a while back. . . and that you love Godspeed you Black Emperor, I noticed that as well. . .
I don't see this as a simple movie. . . more as a flash message. . . it reminded me of what can happen in the future if we're not careful.
A word to all flash directors: ignore the fools who say that your movie sucks and is pointless just because they're mental capability is insufficient to understand the message you're trying to pass. Persevere, move on, and make more. 'Cause you never know. . .
But I'm not here to weigh the losses. I'm here to review. Perhaps if I were American it would affect me more and make me break my outer shell, break down and cry, but I'm not, so I'll just stick to reviewing. .
It was a very good sound arrangement, the song went well with the concept of the video.
And yet, I can't say that the graphics were tastefully arranged. It was a good concept and a great thought to those who suffered great losses, but as a flash animation it's no great feat.
Nice try. Keep on making 'em, because as I've said, it takes balls to post videos in the portal for fear of getting rejected. It's just trial and error.
You did a nice job on the graphics, but the sound quality was a bit below par, I kept trying to force myself to hear under the city noise, which may in itself be truly how a city is, but it's not very appealing in a Flash file.
You did prove a point that's been proven already through the years, how we North Americans spend so much money on the things that conglomerates tell us to buy, and how we don't pay attention to the things that seem little, but are in fact big.
All in all, good job, I do really want to see some more from you.
Sheer beauty. It just goes to show how a great song can make any animation seem grand. The concept was very original, and it almost brought a tear to my eye, the way you coordinated the events. Sheer beauty.
Kudos to you. Keep it up, I'd like to see much more from you.
And for those who want to know what that song's called: Gary Jules - Mad World.

XDD
Oh, man. . . I found the egg on my first try.
And the snazzy game with Trip, too. I read the author's notes on 'Over There: Segment 3' and decided to come look for it.
No, no spoilers ;)
