Hey everybody. This is my first animutation. There is no prelaoder, so you may wish to pause it until you think it loads completely, it also probably has a huge filesize. Constructive critisism if critisism you have. Enjoy. I cut off the last seconds of the song, because I kinda grew bored.

The movie was fast-paced and packed with a lot of funny crazy pictures, and complemented the song perfectly. Porno Graffiti is an excellent band to animutate, as Drunk Magikoopa was the first to prove. A commendable first, and I can't wait for your second!

I liked your movie! Not bad for your first Animutation; in fact, I even have to admit it's better than the one I'm still working on.

It's showing the version with the saturated images.

I was going to rate this a 7 but it crashed my browser so I'm rating it a 6.

 Pretty darn good considering it's only a first.

That's pretty much my thoughts. Heck, it would even be good if this wasn't your first. Quite a bit of stuff going on, which is the opposite of a usual first flash.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to creating more soon. I guess it's my browser or something, because Alex says it works fine on his.

That was the best "first flash" animutation I have seen in... ever. Except for this.

Good stuff! As a fan of Andy Milonakis and Courage the Cowardly Dog I also liked all the little references sprinkled throughout (like the Fish Man or Doc Gerbil).

My only real constructive criticism is that a lot of the images seemed a little rough around the edges where you erased the background. If you're comfortable with something like GIMP or Photoshop, I've found it's a lot easier to remove the background in that before importing the image, rather than importing it to Flash and erasing it from there.

Thanks. I found out if you zoom in on the characters, then erase, it looks better. Overall, glad you enjoyed. I'll up and confess, I stole some effects from DMK because I was stuck. Better luck next time.

I can see you becoming quite amazing.

Already, what I've seen was fast paced mutation excellence.

For a first time, I have to say you beat anything I've done 10 fold.

Keep it up, there is a large new generation of animutationists just waiting to be born. And here we see one more.

I thought it was him anyhow. Anyways, a good first effort, magicpenguin. What bugs me most about the video though is that Andy's mouth keeps jabbing. No offense, but I like insync vocal movements. Good jorb.

Yeah, the separated at birth guys were nelson mandela and morgan freeman. I know I slacked off on the mouth. Jesus Kitty's mouth is pretty synched though. Thank you, I'm going to go in Flashbastard style and create a minimutation next, one even shorter than most, like Cube 2: Hypercube.

EDIT: Fun fact: The title is a variation of "The Andy Milonakis Experience". I didn't go with that because here's alredy Richrd Kiel and Bob Dole experiences. I looked up experience on an online thesaurus and got trial. My next one will have a completely random title, like Chocolate Niblet Beans or So You Say.

Can't wait. I'm willing to bet that you will put out some awesome material.

Now get out there and make fun the hell out of some pop-culture icons!

That was probably one of the most original 'mutation's I've seen in a while; most of the images I saw here I'd never seen before. The mondegreens were quite good, and you didn't just copy and paste for the chorus. Every once in a while it seemed like you suddenly used the 'let's just have this image bounce around for a while' cliche, but then you would break away and do something cool. If this was your first, then it is imperative that you make more.

Yeah, thanks. There's one downside to using so many original chars: you don't have as many new ones for your next. But, I'm already finding more. Also, I think it could've used a little more interaction, I'll keep all this in mind for the next one.

EDIT: Also, as you can see, there are barely any references, only one subliminal one in the "Morris Says" scene, if I'm correct.

What about the TSID reference in the subliminal chat with Courage and Tomo?

Hmm... I guess so. Yeah, TSID and Perot Music Hour were it to my knowledge.

EDIT: Oh, wait, and in the Morris says scene there's also a reference to The Richard Kiel Experience.

Yes. My first stab at flash and animutation all together. I'm still too embarrased of this thing to watch it, but, I really should more. I can't believe I made this without any tweening. So EVERYTHING was fbf. At 24 fps. And I think this is my animutation that took me the longest to make. I must admit. There's a lot of filler here. I guess it's 'cause of the 24 fps.

I still can barely watch this. I get embarrased in like 2 seconds. I get sick of that picture of Andy Milonakis. Courage's stupid grin gnaws on my brain. The lack of backgrounds and slight overused jokes annoy me. I still can't help but think this is a great first flash, but I'm still terribly afraid to watch it.]

What I do like about it is that while I watch I can not only see me getting the hang of randomness and flash altogether.

Around the beginning, you see, I had 230423754 new images to use, but no idea what to do with them. So I just made them flip and bounce and stuff. I didn't care. I was still in shock at what flash could do.
Around the middle, you see, I was almost figuring out what I was doing, but not really. I just put in whatever I felt like, so this movie really represents a mix of good and filler, which makes it very interesting. I rarely ever edited any scenes, or looked back, so it really just represents my own mind, and how to work with filler that you make.
Around the end, I got excited and just did stuff until I got somewhat of an idea of what I had just made.... so....
because the .fla took too much time to open (and my now forever lost Music Hour animutation took at least 2 times as long and I was only halfway done... musta been that all of those pictures were too big), I was sick of all the fbf animation, had 0 ideas left, and needed to put a stop to the torture animating this horribly large thing had become.... then came the AP preloader, and that just.... saturated my images.... I was PISSED OFF. And then it came and unleashed a world of brimming flash talent I had, yet I had so much, a lot of the scenes crashed under my genius and became filler.

There isn't a lot of stuff going on, but it shows me dealing with .flas that took a million years to open, saturated images, my stupid thoughts popping up every 2 seconds, the fear that I wasted an awesome song (which pops up, usually very rarely, but at times), and the fact that I used google about 821408234012 times.

So, yeah, watch this, but know it's extremely embarrising to me now. Maybe that's just because I'm sick of it. And if anyone wonders why Andy's mouth doesn't even try to be in sync, it's because Flashbastard coached me in the field of mouths, and kept on using Jon Stewart as an example, so, I thought about Jon Stewart, and I thought about 3.14. And there's rarely any syncing in that, because the song's fast. So I was thinking of that.

It's good (really good for a first flash) but it almost made my browser crash so 6 outta 10.

Thanks. The reason it does that is because EVERYTHING is frame by frame so it's ridiculously huge.

And be sure to check out everything else by me because it's all better than this except maybe the one called Phantom Planet.
