[Without A Mushroom]

7/10

It was kinda funny, but the voicing was bad and the animation seemed kinda gritty.

Sh0T-D0wN responds:

Lol.

[***The Pixelmas Shorts***]

Well

I get the feeling you weren't really trying to be super funny. If I'm correct, then this deserves the 8 out of 10 for keeping me fully entertained for like three minutes. bravo. A lot of the shorts didn't really make sense though. I understand the comedic relief... (relief from what?!) but having stuff that just doesn't really make sense... for example: a kid looks at his presents and is suddenly very happy?

anyway, you get it, I hope.

Emanhattan responds:

I get what you mean. there is a lot of mixed feelings into this collab, is not necessarily a "LULZ WOWSERS" kinda thing. and we were not aiming at that.

[Sketched-Merry Sketchmas]

overall it was very nice.

Nice story- the crazy elf was pretty neat. It was pretty interesting how you made him seem all fucked up and then slowly the audience begins to agree with him.

Animation- Nice, could be better, but it's not necessary because it's pretty good already.

Voicing- Excelent. I didn't have trouble imagining the elves talking instead of a voice-actor talking into a microphone.

sirjeffofshort responds:

Thanks for the insightful review. It's funny the things you don't really notice until after the animation is finished, like the slow descent of the audience's point of view into the green elf's point of view.

The voice acting is definitely superb. I can't thank enough everyone who helps voice these sketches.

Thanks again for the review.

[Office Spider: Episode 6]

Not my taste maybe?

I didn't find it very entertaining.

The humor was a little too dry for me I think.

danomano65 responds:

good reason to give five. because it's not for you.

[Zanta Claws II]

Poor voices

voice acting sounded unenthusiastic.

I had a hard time relating the voices to the individual characters because the tones did not match the given emotions.

"yay, money" for example was... just covered in weaksauce. If he'd screamed it, it'd been a lot more believable. After all, what type of normal person, after recieving an extrordinarily large amount of free cash, would just cheerfully say "yay money".

C'mon, you know you'd be freaking excited! Your balls would fall off! If an extreme abundance of cash was your hearts true desire, then yea, your balls would fall off and you'd be screaming with joy... or you'd be too speachless to scream... don't forget, the balls must fall off >__>

eddsworld responds:

Have to agree about that line, but i didn't have very many choices for it. But my new mic is here now, so we can be more adventureous with our lines now :)

[Bolty's Clockmas]

Urm...

I didn't like the story much... didn't pull me in or anything. I just kept watching because it's 4:35am and there's nothing better to do.

Anyway, you've got some good flash skeelz, I can tell, the animation was pretty smooth and the story was easy to follow. I just didn't like this one, but that's probably because I'm not a big fan of Christmas.

8 for skeelz

BoltClock responds:

I didn't do wonders with the story for this one because I was rushed for time, but I guess my skillz really are there :D

Thanks for watching the whole thing and for your honest review - indeed not everyone is a big fan of Christmas :)
