i just thought i'd mention guys as well that Neil said a lot of his early cartoons were blammed off newgrounds and well, compare Andrew's "Bed Time Stories with Alan Rickman" to Hyak 2003 or Toxic's early works in comparison to Chocolate Niblet beans.

not to mention Untitled or Wizard Power with the Japanese Pokerap or something.


So to be to terribly afraid of making a flash cartoon and have someone say it stinks or whatever over the internet. What I would do however would be is to show it to others first before posting to get a second opinion or if there are problems (voices not synching up which can make animutations unwatchable).

Also, take time to work on flash. Making 5 in a row cause you're on a roll is awesome but be sure to take time inbetween just to play around in flash without making a full length so your cartoons can be even better.

Anyways, this was a fun rant.
Eat fit, and have fun.

i feel as though that 'voices not synching up' comment was directed at me.

it wasn't at anyone specifically. actually when i was creating Seeing Jesus H. Christ, i almost threw the project away when the music was messing up. :/

Wow, that's awesome. You're better than me. How do you do that thing with the scrolling moving background? I still can't figure that out.

i could explain it, but it's hard to explain through text. . .

just toss it in and move it so it scrolls to the right with mirrored images of it trailing behind and make it loop inside a movie clips.

bah that's no help at all.

glad you dug it animubob.

i'm glad you noticed the head thing.

also, depending on the heads you chose, you get a different moral and movie recomendation each time. yay

All this time and I just now figure it out. Yay! That is a cool secret.
Also, this is basicly my idol as far as good animutations go. Good work!

yeah, might as well call it Chocolate Niblet Beans rip-off 2.

more CNB rip-offs to come.

Speaking of CNB, has anyone talked to Toxic about submitting his works here? I would like to see them here.

Toxic says that AP is the source of a lot of bad animutations... which is partially true, though like NG they tend to sink to the bottom. The problem is, the volume of submissions isn't as high here, so they stay on the "Newest" list for a long time.

In our defense, we've had a good few good things come out too. My goal is not to shut down those who submit something not up to standard... it is to help them get better so they submit something good.

This is more in reply to Toxic's review of GWTW on Newgrounds than to you, but the point is he probably wouldn't want to submit his stuff.

Sorry how I'm kind of responsible for a lot of the crappy ones....

No, no. I don't blame you. Not all the crud here is yours, Animubob. There have been other works that are not all that great.

Also, I do not blame Toxic for not submitting here, because of details mentioned by Mudi. Practice makes perfect, and if you keep dedicating yourself to the animutation with valor and effort, you could eventually make a quality animutation, like that of Neil, Toxic, Dwedit, and TMST.

Valor is definetly applicable.

surprise ruined. :(

Ruined surprise ruined.

it's from an old 80's tv show I like called the Young Ones.

there are tons of references to it in the toon.

also, the elephant head is from that same show.

I get the feeling this had a very Toxic-and-Trapezzoid influence to it, but it still had some of the Un-J magic too.

there is a thing in photoshop to do it, but I did it manually. Makes things stand out more.

heh, I was going to post that. and yep, directly ripped off. in every way possible. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Don't blink or you'll miss a lot of it. This is good stuff, though. Completely random, but I can't say it's as good as Chocolate Niblet Beans, which I consider to be the best animute ever.

it's not called 'ripping off'. its called 'referencing'.
you directly 'referenced' it.

joke wise it's ripped off.

there's either a thin line between taking someone else's joke and referencing it.

ah well. doesnt' matter.

I have 3 of the 5 movies on the recommendation thing. I've seen 2. I'd heard of one before watching this. Tried looking up El Notte, all I got was La Notte and El Norte. Is it one of them? If not, what the bloody heck is it?

ahh his apron.

Nah, I doubt it. It's just a weird common expression. This cartoon wasn't particularly popular anyhow. heh

Well, it managed to stay on Newgrounds and also get on ABS... a good few people saw it.

I still have never heard that expression ever, and I'm going to pretend it doesn't exist outside of this animation for now

I'm equally curious. It might have something to do with the above album cover.

because I suck at flash and audio editing basically. and i wanted to get this done by a certain date without fiddling with audio too much.

I did almost the same thing in asdf.swf, because there's a really long silent part in the song at the beginning.

I noticed this glitch too. When I watched the video without the whole thing loading, instead of it playing the Elephant Head part, it just went to a frame later in the movie.

Wow, hours of awesome packed into two minutes and 33 seconds. This is like Cnb, but even more neat.

And i've seen Duck Soup and Loled hard.
