Xtremedevil, just because you don't understand something is no reason to rate a movie of quality like this down. It is based around the game Half-Life 2. The thing he's riding on is a Strider, sort of like a spider-legged tank, from the game. I also assume the chickens are a reference to the ones back in Counter-Strike 1.5. They were removed from Counter-Strike: Source to my knowledge, so Breen rescuing a chicken has a bit more meaning than you might think. Then again, I might be reading too much into it :P
I particularly liked how you brought the animations from what looked like in-game rips directly into the movie. That and the entire animation was very smooth and detailed. The sound was brilliant, very high quality, and it definitely had its funny touches to bring a smile :P I'd say this definitely deserves a 5. It was a great effort on your part, and definitely worth everyone's time to watch!
((Rated Violence 0 because there wasn't any, and Interactivity 5 because there is a working menu. Neither of these factor into the Overall score.))
Plus the animation was really good. Everything was smooth and it was all in a very unique style.
To AniGen: Have you ever tried tweening something? I mean, its one thing to just make it move, its another to make it move WELL, especially when it has to be synched with so many other things, like in this movie. You should try it sometime. It really isn't as easy as you may think, animating in flash takes a long time, and a lot of fine tuning.
Violence and Interactivity scores based on that this is a normal movie, and that it also isn't bloody but still has fighting :P
Now for the important part. The title says it all, I was in awe watching this movie. To be honest, I decided to sit down and watch the complete series up to here, and it brought tears to my eyes. The amount of emotion you crammed into these is amazing, and the choices of songs are perfect.
Then again, I always have been a fan of that "robots learning to love" thing...
It wasn't too bad. I liked the unique angle that they fought from, it wasn't just a ripoff of the game screen :P Very creative in all.
As for you two and "which pokemon is better," honestly Kyogre DOES have an advantage. Kyogre is a water type, using water moves, whereas Groudon is a ground type with a lot of ground and fire moves, both of which aren't very effective against water. Groudon, however, does have a HUGE physical attakc power, and Kyogre's physical defense isn't exactly the best :P Also, I believe Groudon can learn a few attacks relating to weaknesses of water types. Mine, for instance, takes advantage of the Sunny Day battle condition by using Solar Beam :P It all depends on who is the better trainer, I've seen a lot of tossups in that game, sometimes you have to expect the unexpected.
Look at me, preaching about pokemon XD God, I'm such a dork. Decent flash in all, it was a good time waster while I'm bored!
Very much awesome, just like the others! I actually liked the beginning of BBQ's part, the song reminded me of something... an old claymation game I had on the computer, The Neverhood. I thought the music there was by Terry Scott Taylor, but I didn't see his name in the credits. Oh well! Gotta love being sidetracked :P
Overall a great movie! Good for a few minutes of entertainment, and has some detail that you miss the first time you watch! Great job people.
This is STILL keeping me entertained... I've been at it for a while now. My whole life will fall to this game! By the way, it must be me, but I've never finished it :P I always get owned at the purple part x.x
As for an actual review, I was impressed with how well the game tied into the music. *spoiler*When the asterisks suddenly flew at me for the first time*endspoiler* it scared the crud outta me :P I thought I was doing so well.
Very nice job in all, this is going under my favorites.
I started checking you out after Dumbass Mario and I have to say, this stuff is pretty good. You have a talent for this, much better than I'll ever have O.o I commend you!

Wow, thanks so much for your comment.
See, it's people like ou who are encouraging to animators and actually artists in general.
You seriously just made my day better.
Thanks man.

Good work!
I thought this was very good. It may be a bit repetitive song wise, but the animation fits well with it. You should do more of these!
