I really don't want to sour the 10's being thrown about, but there are some areas that need to be addressed. First of all there was no need for nudity, sure sometimes there is something surreal about showing something and having nothing sexual about it. The nudity in this collab gave it a sense of childish pollution. While the story line was clear in some areas, it was a bit vaque in others. There were also a few other areas whose frames were either fewer or a bit laggy. All in all, at least I didn't try to blam it. I will be keeping an eye on all of you and see what becomes of you, sincerely John Collins. Ps: I know how love can hurt, I almost gave it up because of the knives thrust into my heart. Ps: Ps: I suggest making a music collab of the song Sing for Absolution by Muse next.

You shouldn't worry about your score so much. It's difficult to accept but a lot times you can put a lot of work into something and people may either not like it or appreciate it no matter how obvious the amount of work you put into it is. People grade things not on how hard it was to make but on certain criteria. Just because one aspect of your animation is really good doesn't mean it's perfect and you shouldn't let the amount of work you put into it cloud your vision. Don't get me wrong I know exactly how difficult capture something in an animation and I thought that collab was pretty good, but it did feel like it was missing something.

When I first saw it I thought it was pretty good, I mean when I reanalysed it I realised you guys are just being child like, your trying to make something really deep and meaningful when it already is. do love the song but the way you portray it doesn't do it much justice I dont think, theres a big sense of the old, moaning over your ex girlfriend and your just making it seem pretencious.

Most of the animation was pretty decent, the music was obviously great but that doesn't rate you at all. The storylines where abit crap and meaningless, you tried to hard to be all "ugh im sad boohoo" in the future I think you should just let the animation speak for itself then trying to over act everything.

They way you react to others opinions is incredibly childish. I enjoyed the movie, it certainly was decent, but between the way you're bitching about stik's moving scoring higher, and then the response on the first comment on this user page ruins anything it once had. I'm embarassed for you and it's reflecting badly on everyone involved.

Guy above me is so right.
You are single handedly ruining the newgrounds society as a result of the example you are setting for your peers. Listen to him, the next time you get a bad review, whether it be reasonable or irrational, don't speak your mind and take it like a bitch.
Stop being such a child, you child.
Stupid child.

I love how everyone comes on here bitching and moaning about how "childish" we all are, or how we 'didn't live up to the song'

Hey, listen.
Those parts fucking mean something to each and every one of us, and it took a lot of time and effort to animate everything (I had to FBF at 30fps, Jesus christ, you all don't know ANYTHING about that) Theo here, did an outstanding job with his part, so you can all fuck off for all I care.

WE AREN'T MAKING A PROFESSIONAL MUSIC VIDEO. THIS IS NEWGROUNDS.
Frankly, I hate everyone who comes in here thinking that throwing the word " childish" and "immature" at us makes them seem smarter, and 'above' us in some way, but you're probably just reeling over the fact that we managed to make something fucking amazing together that YOU will never manage.

Call me a bitch, but I'm sick and tired of all the bullshit people are throwing at us.

THE NUDITY IS SYMBOLIC, BTW.
Didn't you ever study art theory, or go to a museum?
No, you stay home in your basements and think you're the big cheese by typing out a whole paragraph of how much better your fecal matter smells than the rest of the world.
Work as hard as we did for this collab, and maybe I'll start respecting your opinion.

Until then?

FUCK OFF, and go watch something down at your intellectual level. I hear Blue's Clues has a really enticing plot.

...eek

NextToNothing 2008-12-09 01:08:18

God forbid you acknowledge the immature nature of your actions rather than justify them, I'm not gonna get anywhere you're both childish and defensive.

PBass 2008-12-09 09:34:48

Wow some people don't know how to mind their own business. Great animation Theo and team! Good luck with further submissions!

Sode 2008-12-09 14:55:00

I'm impressed, this is one of the most visually attractive flashes I've seen this year.

notorious 2008-12-10 18:09:46

GOOD GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE I'M SO SORRY ABOUT COPYING AND PASTING THAT REVIEW THEO

I like diks loll

Touchan 2008-12-10 20:49:39

I found it sad how you guys weren't at least getting a 4.5+, and it's sad how people are being so immature about it. You put some real effort into it and it shows. As for the nudity part it didn't bother me one bit. Personally I think people are overracting. Anyways, the animation was amazing and the story really fit into the song. Good Job!

Penquin11 2008-12-10 22:03:09
