This one was funnier than expected, everything was well animated and lip synced, except for the beggining :P it looked nice, and was long enough to be more than "the old short remade", twice as long i think. also, the new jokes were pretty good, and they all ended up connecting, and that was even funnier :D! great job here, ego.

Excellent movie, the script was well writen and its nicely animated, the jokes were funny overall and the character designs were cool and not stereotypical or boring :D They did keep me interested... BUT I think they lack some charisma and expression, specially the main guy, he was always with that same tone of voice and face, and that one thing did get me a bit bored. I think you have to work a bit more to define the characters' personalities
Other than that, it was excellent, you did a great work!! Also, a recomendation: In later chapters, you should start adding more side stories, maybe with the dad an mom or their friends etc, you might had tought about it already, but remember to make them good :D thats all. Hope to see more from you!

I completely agree with you, but I dont wanna rush things in and cram the viewer with characters. I have many characters which I think are interesting lined up.
I knew I recognized that name!... Lalo... we were both fighting the good fight on the first annual Pico Day.

You have improved alot in your animation, from your character movements to your backgrounds, they're prettier than ever :) The sound effects were great, very varied. The voices were good too, exept at the end, they lost a bit of emotion there. The lipsyncing was excellent, but the character's expressions could have used some work, they barely moved their eyes or eyebrows, almost seemed like robots...
The only animation mistake i noticed was the background clouds' loop, it suddently stops for half a second and restarts.
Great work here, hope to see more from you ;D

thanks friend. yeah, i didn't put a ton of effort into the lypsyncing portion. that's why the jock hardly moves his body and i repeat a lot of the girl's animations. all true. could have been made to act a lot more human, but i was lazy and eager to move on.
and shit, that's some eye you've got spotting the error with the clouds... but when i went back and watched it again (focusing entirely on the clouds) i didn't notice the mistake you mentioned, it all ran smoothly.... not really sure why or how that could have happened, it was just a continuous tween across the entire scene.
ah well, anyway, glad to see you're still interested in my work :-)

The song was pretty annoying this time, specially the lyrics, they were WAY too dumb and the lack of tone didnt really fit them. you seem to be running out of ideas now :C
But the animation was, nice, more decent than the one in Owls :)

Nothing new, for some reason it wasnt as funny as the rest of the awesome movies, i felt it was a bit slower and less crazy, specially after watching awesome gaiden. the new joke wasnt that cool :C i liked the ending tho.
And about the easter egg, i preffer the original one, even if it had less animation, it was way more expressive :)

At LAST we get something worth of its score! this is excellent, i like the world you just did, it had so much atention in the background details and stuff, it looked very nice :D yet, i wish it was longer and had more stuff going on, it just feels too incomplete. i could easily count the actions in it :(
The music was great, very fitting :) im glad you choose audio portal songs, its great to give NG musicians some spotlight!
i hope to see more from this monster and from you :D you're very good!
