[Chavs]

pretty good

chavs, or spydes as we call them in northern Ireland, aren't wiggas. They don't act like they're black, some of them do but thats not what defines them as a chav.

There is no american equivelent of a chav, whoever put this on the front page said white trash- which is probably more accurate than wigga but still not exact.

Americans- count yourself lucky that you don't have to deal with these dicks.

Anyway..... nice flash, some of the lyrics were really funny.

Mozer responds:

Thanks, I chose wiggas to describe them so Americans could sort of understand where I am coming from, but yes as you say, it's hard to think of an American equivalent.

Cheers for your comments :)

[Baa Baa, Shut UP]

i'm seriously impressed

Having tried animating movement in humans (not sheep tho) i am impressed with what you've done. Lip syncing was great and it was pretty damn funny. I look forward to seeing things from you in the future.

KenSkaii responds:

thanks for watching my stuff.

[battle royal part 1/2]

good job

im a big fan of the movies, the first one especially and this was a very good tribute to it. Really good job overall and I look forward to seeing the conclusion.

By the way, i loved that the cigerettes the guy were smoking were called wild 7 brand, that was a nice little reference.

[Star Wars Transitions]

noticed it too..

I've always thought the transitions in starwars were funny, its not just revenge of the sith, its in all of them.

I think its because that was the limit of the technology when the first ones (IV-VI) were made.
The style was probably kept for the new ones (I-III) so that they had the same kind of feel as the originals and fans of I-III could be reminded of the similarities between the movies since there are so many fundamental differences.

So yeah he does go overboard a bit with the transitions but I think its probably intentional as a tribute to the original movies and how they were so great even with the technology available at the time.

Anyway.... great cartoon, made me laugh. I loved that lucas was the emperor.

[LoZ - The Final Link]

I think it's great

The thunder sound effect got annoying whenever i was reading the back story, which was good but I think it should reworded a bit. I'm not talking about the kokori blood thing cause i know you mentioned that in your comments but that is wrong and it annoyed me a wee bit. I also think you should've drawn the actual master sword, it looks like it and you can tell that it is the master sword but its not the same design as the sword in the ocarina of time.

I commend you for trying to take Link into a new style and storylin as it is something few people doing link tributes have to courage to do. I really liked this despite the few problems i had with it and its clear to see that there was alot of effort put in, especially since you told us this in your making section.

Speaking of your making section, I really liked the simplicity of the menu and the power wisdom and courage thing. I was trying to figure out which of the triangles stood for which thing a while back but I don't think i can take your word for it because of the few mistakes you made.

Really good job and I hope you do more LoZ stuff because I love it too.

LeviFolds responds:

was having a hard time figuring out if you were complimenting or scorning, heh - but i get the feeling that most people like this to some degree but there are some things that bothered them, some incinsistancies, inaccuracies and such - in the menu i put courage on top, wisdom on the bottom right and power on the bottom left - i did not think to properly place the pieces in the menu, because i wanted play on top, making on the left and the story on the right, for convenience and i chose the attributes of the triforce i thought went best with the options - play for courage, making for power and story for wisdom - makes sense, no ? in the movie however, when the triforce glows on each of their hands at various points, their specific triforce piece does glow in the correct place - 'ganon' on top for power and 'link' on bottom left for courage - those are the correct placements for the triforce pieces - but honestly, i worked hours a day on this, mainly between 1am and 5am cause i have no time during the day to do this and i hardly sleep so it was convenient for my schedule - and my mind wasnt all there for some parts of the movie - those are the parts that will tend to be inaccurate or seem not to flow as well - i really hope this movie didnt offend any zelda fans - i kno i get upset at directors when they take something i love and trash it but thats mainly because theyre getting millions of dollars to do it - i got nothing for this and all i have is my work to show and i put a hell of a lot of time, thouoght and effort into this so i appreciate the good reviews and tho i accept the negative ones, please be fair like this guy

[Roadside Philosophy]

not bad not bad

If you didn't believe in fate then you would be fated to have a ridiculous conversation about fate which would eventually lead to the fated death of you and your friend. The fact that he didn't believe in fate meant that all of the preconditions for that conversation were there and so he died exactly when fate planned him to die.

I think you might have said something like that somewhere in there anyway but i wanted to type it out myself so I could get it right in my head.

If the author happens to read this could you also read my review of the 29 day war and tell me if I was right.
