[Birthday 19]

Awwwwww sheet

Birthday 19 is a high octane action extravaganza that explores the gritty underworld of cocaine-frisbee-karting with a star studded cast (including Frankie Muniz of Titus S3E12 fame) side by side with a cast of exciting newcomers whose dramatic performances will blow audiences away like a veritable candle. While Birthday 19 undoubtedly falls short of it's genre redefining predecessor, it's still a thrilling conclusion to the Birthday duology.

[[2010] REBOOT 11]

Getting back to form.

A few of the previous episodes were dragging plot wise but this one seems to be picking up the pace again (although they're still in that field....Reboot's Namek!) i'm looking forward to some big story turn/s on the horizon (hopefully in the upcoming ep12).
The art/animation is more or less the same level as previous episodes. Most of the time it's fine but sometimes it's jarring such as the horse scene with the polybius twins, weapons and horse all looking kinda wonky and the shooting scene where Render turns his head. One thing im noticing is that the faces are becoming more and more human (they were just blocks not too long ago)...Violet's rapeface this episode being a prime example. The human faces are fine but weird... i miss the blocky faces.
Voice acting still leaves a lot to be desired and i often find myself relieved when a line is said through only text, you should probably just replace voices with sounds or music (like the teacher from Peanuts)...and it would still make sense given the world.

JMartin97 responds:

Reboot 12 will not disappoint, thank you for the critique.

Try some Bailey's

I liked this a lot.
Sorry about the whole, getting drafted, thing.
Good luck.

[2nd Annual Tank Awards]

Opinions on the winner aside...

This was pretty painful to watch.
Tom seems super uncomfortable for most of it, the cgi set is extremely cheesy and the announcer person sounds spastic.

MindChamber responds:

we were trying to capture that pigpen style of art, I think we nailed it.

[Rwd: 021 Meet'n'fuck]

Dont growl at me when i touch your vagina.

That was hilarious and adequately animated.

[Harry The Harlequin Fetus]

really cool

This is like a fucked up psychedelic Betty Boop cartoon.
I especially liked the doctor walking scene with the crazy background loop.
Would've liked to have seen more of the title character....dancing fetus please!

Catoblepas responds:

:D Maybe some day.

[How 2 Succeed on NG pt.2]

::::::

I gave the screen a thumbs up... BECAUSE ITS THE FUCKING TRUTH.
And goddamnit if i dont love screens that tell the truth.

[Tank Epic]

ffff

Im usually not big on 3d but this demonstrates a perfect use. The original design ideas of heavy use of black and reusable parts to make cheap but good looking animation carried over really nicely to 3d.

And im not usually big on creaming like a queer and coming up with stupidly obvious and infeasible game ideas but... seeing this made me want a 3d Tankmen multiplayer game....something like Conker's BFD's war games.

Also...is their a higher quality version of this available somewhere?

thelonelyduck responds:

I have higher quality versions, but I'm still working on where to post them.

[[2008] REBOOT 10]

---

*suggestions*
-Needs a snappier intro.
-This episode is very long and disjointed. The length is a trend that's been getting larger with each episode for better or worse but theres really only for worse on the disjointed front....the cutting around between stuff is fun and all but in earlier episodes it used to be only cutting between the main story and a single side story of one of the characters. Now you have multiple side stories and multiple threads of the main story going on at once which is very confusing.
-There's alot of unneeded fluff. Besides the obvious "Reboot will be Right back. Reboot is back!" many scenes could be done far shorter and still get the point they want to get across. Minimalism, etc.

PS. MASSACRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111112

[WeRBopBop #8]

Not racist enough.

This was not racist enough and the stupid characters blinked every second and now im blinking a whole bunch from seeing them blink.

For making me blink...YOU ARE NOW AWARE OF YOUR BREATHING.
