Decent -- but speed it up

Mildly humorous, with some nice sight gags and social commentary. But you should work on editing -- each scene here could be about half as long. Funny stuff tends to work better when it's rapid-fire (Simpsons for instance)..

Good luck with future projects!

Thank you for watching "Bamboozled"

<sarcasm>

See, it's funny if you make the characters into absurd stereotype idiots who speak nothing but curse words and "ghetto" slang that hasn't been used by actual folks in the ghetto for two years. Also, it's funny when the black characters have big lips and are a bunch of stupid drunks.

</sarcasm>

Too bad your writing ability doesn't match your abundant technical skill.

Sigh

THIS is what gets 3.5 while my work languishes at 2.9?

Woe betide upon Newgrounds..

KnottsberryClock responds:

Don't scorn me just because your work isn't up to standard :-)

Shows promise

Some good images and it flows okay, but it's pretty rough and unrefined. Nothing wrong with sticks (or tweens), but it's jerky and the backgrounds are pretty weak. Also, make sure you have sounds for all your actions..

Nice postloader

Overall, this is kind of thin and insubstantial. I like the overall feel of it, but it's pretty unpolished. The sound cut off in the middle (maybe it's my setup). I really like the post-viewing interface..

Zima-The-Impaler responds:

there was no sound cut off in the real version, afraid thats on your end. Maybe your machine was fighting against the truth ;)

You obviously put some work into this, BUT..

It just feels thin and insubstantial. I agree with the anti-Iraq-war message, but why focus on North Korea? Israel has much more recently said that it will use its nukes if Iraq attacks it. (And why would Iraq attack Israel? If it feels threatened by the US.)

Funny how much Beijing looks like Tokyo. =)

Kurt Vonnegut recently wrote a letter to the New York Times (which they chose not to publish). This is the entire letter:

"In the history of the world, only one country has ever had the audacity to use an atomic weapon."

James-Ball responds:

North Korea is part of the "Axis of Evil" and said that if the us attacks it will attack japan s kore or china and they do have the bomb its more that a 3 fewel

Good effort, but it's really sloppy

The sound is okay and the story isn't horrible, but the graphics are very sloppy. Walls decorated with random squiggles, and everything looks like it was drawn very quickly. Slow down and put some more work into your artwork.

Absolutely stunning

If this doesn't make it into the Newgrounds Top 10 of all time, then the people in this place don't deserve to call themselves a community.

I can't think of a single recommendation for improvement -- this is a truly breathtaking work of art.

This has potential

I like the graphic, but the movie doesn't really have a point, nor does it make me smile. The style is fluid, but I was pretty bored after a while.

Keep at it!

RLL-BABY responds:

it made me smile.

This could use a story

Your animation is very good (especially on the characters' mouths -- check the comments on my movie "Penny for a Thought").. But the plot is almost nonexistent.

A story about a guy who has a job and watches TV? It's been done, and the only reason to do it again is if you can make it funny. And alas, this is not very funny.

Team up with a different writer and work on the script some more!

Resistance is the secret of joy.
