[Creativity - Episode 8]

Better

Once again, great dialog. I'm having difficulty deciding whether the real voice acting or the text-to-speech is better. And by all means I mean no disrespect to the voice actors, I can imagine how tough of a job that is. However the text-to-speech had a tone of indifference that fit this series very well. By the way, I'm completely aware that is COMPLETELY CONTRADICTORY to my previous reviews, sorry about that. Maybe the solution would be if the voice acting sounded more indifferent, at least for Luc's character, the other's were pretty fitting, and similar to the text-to-speech voices (in tone, not in mechanical... ness).

The Beginning Was Good

The beginning was funny, and I think it was paced right. Some sound or music would have helped, as I started to play with my speakers for a while thinking that I was missing something. Once Luc talked to Chill it kind of slowed down and wasn't as funny anymore. It was mildly funny, but more cliche funny than the original kind of funny that pops its head in and out throughout this series.

I Liked It

As these episodes continue they're getting better, and the comedy's getting wittier, but the text-to-speech stuff is REALLY stifling the potential this has. While there should be more animation I loved how at the end the guy made the face after pointing out that "Chill" actually talked for once - with a British accent -

It Has Potential

I've watched one through five so far and this one's my favorite. This one has some pretty witty and funny dialog and makes the best of its time. Unfortunately a flaw it shares with the others is out of sequence I don't think it stands on its own very well. You have a good sense of humor, and know how to set up a good joke, but I think if there was more movement, animation as well as better timing with the voices (and perhaps some voice acting like later episodes) this could be a lot better.

Pretty Nice

This'd be cool as a teaser or preview for an upcoming movie or game, but since it's 3 years later, I'm assuming it's not. So this means it's about a serial killer who's going to kill the viewer - I don't know without a connection to another movie or something it seems like it kind of hypes the character more than he deserves. The animation was cool I thought. It had a pencil kind of look (even though it wasn't penciled).

I hope you still read your reviews three years later. :)

[Truth About Shrapnel]

Whoa.

Wow, that like totally (kinda) blew my mind. Continue your investigation to the ends of the earth detective.

Relevance, humor or irrelevance aside, this was REALLY well done.

[29 Day War]

Pretty Good

Spoiler Warning:

Interesting. I was completely surprised by the ending, and you did a good job leaving hints without giving it away. The graphics were average for the most part, but the space sequence was great. I gave you some extra sound points because you used original music and introduced me to a NG Artist I was previously unaware of. I liked the way you let the story play out, but I personally wasn't fully onboard with the slightly political message behind it. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. That personal issue though didn't find its way into my voting so don't worry. ;)

[Transitions Episode 1]

Wow, just wow.

"Yo Mace, hey G Wassup?" Wow. Just wow. ... Anyway, that was great in every way. There are some movies where great graphics overshadow the humor and the humor is better than the graphics, but this just had a completely solid look and a consistently funny sense of humor. The balance between the two was great too. Good job. :)

[Onion Murder]

Excellent

I liked this, it was funny. The way they just looked at each other and you just KNOW what's coming, but it still keeps you interested. Good work.

[Snicker's Bar]

Ha! Nice.

AWESOMENESS!
