"Haha, did Tom even WATCH this first? :D"
I'd complain about the lack of sound effects if I didn't know you did it on purpose <3
I know you're not done with this series. It's the only one you've even taken up to a second episode. TEN'D

Your score keeps going up, you two cannot be stopped!!!11
You know, I was reading someone's review and I think I agreed about what they said regarding the snake intro sequence. I thought it was a nice, silly addition, but I can see how it would be difficult to snag someone with that segment if they think the rest of the cartoon is going to be a dialogue-free chase. The segment itself was ace because I knew what it was leading up to. I'm just afraid maybe some poor little newbies out there might not have :(
That's actually more like critical thinking than my opinion. I loved it :D I constantly go back to study the both of your writing, and I'm still amazed at how you can get a complicated faux-3d world to have such clean animation. TOP DRAW </busker>

yeah good point, didnt seem to throw most people though.
If it looks complicated... it really isnt. All credit goes to flashes snap and tween functions.

1) "Make like a tree"
2) 88 mph
3) The broken-arrow pattern during the credits
4) Power of Love credits riff.
These are the BTTF references I noticed off-hand, and I STILL don't think there were enough. Though I suppose I can see how it was hard to fit in more with all that PLOT taking up so much space, haha.
Clean and well recorded as usual Jeff, and I noticed a big improvement in the backgrounds as well. OMG WHEN WILL PART3 BE OUT!! ...nah, I wouldn't do that to you.

Would you like to do anything else but dance if you were going to teach communication law in Croatia on a Fulbright Fellowship?

Wow...like...there wasn't a single joke in the whole cartoon. Not even one.
Really, wow. I actually sat down and decided I would count them off. There was a nipple pun, yes, but no actual jokes. Not even situational comedy. This was, essentially, two minutes of softcore porn with Germaine grabbing at herself. I feel dirty for even giving this one a chance.
I mean, maybe it was supposed to be ironic? You know, that this cartoon was as exploitationally terrible as the car wash about which it was oriented?
Shame on you. You know what you did.

Haha it's a shame I didn't cross paths with Eggford, but I was warned ahead of time when I showed up on Saturday. Also, I think I was the only one who understood every word out of Luksy's mouth (I don't usually have a problem with accents, and his wasn't as bad as everyone says anyway).
Nevetheless, it was like reliving the experience except for the sheer quantity of geeks who were in the background of the actual event. Nice work.

Extremely short. I liked it, but that's the problem, I think. I decided I would try to get attached to the characters, but then what would be the point? They weren't generic, either. They had quirky characteristics that set them apart and had me believing that this would be a long movie (not to mention the file size). Then it ended before it even began.
Oh well, it was good for what it was. I just expected there to be a lot more to it. BUT, I am rating the movie and not what I hoped it would be, so there you are.
Also, who was that at the beginning, Chiasm? The opening song, I mean.

Author's Response:
Yeah I didnt set out for this to be a deep story with a strong plot. I just wanted to make an intense burst of action, and most people seem to have liked it that way. I had so many sound effects and songs that the file size was huge and I just couldn't bring myself to reduce the sound quality.
The opening song is "Byakuya" by a group called Dragon Ash.
Thanks a bunch man!

You probably could have tricked us into thinking you'd completed it with a hastily animated premise for a conclusion. I still liked it though. You have a very diverse style.

I hated this cartoon so much, that I couldnt even get the motivation for a crappy copout ending.
Thats a new level of indifference for me.
Also hi :)
