[Fingerlights]

Great Work! As Good as NG's Favorite Clay Artist!

In summary, some faceless, mellow clay blob people mutilate themselves in a stupid but inventive way(this time, with finger lights that burn through clay flesh). They sit down to watch Power Rangers and make a breif Power Rangers joke. Meanwhile, their red fat friend burn out his eyes, and whines to his pals. In other words, it is a Knox cartoon not made by Knox, but is as equally good as Knox...

mark-v12 responds:

Really, as good as knox. So you thought it was funny. When I was done with it I was kinda dissappointed with the quality of the animation and the voices. I appreciate the comment.

You Are Taking This Series In a Wrong Direction.

I recently found out you have a whole series of these 666 entries. They are all similar since most are a still picture with a couple animations with a fuzzy picture as if it was viewed through a camera lens. All of these entries have a dark and mysterious feel to them. I must say that I appreciate all the music and artwork in these movies. I think they are very good. However, still pictures are not welcomed at NG that much. So having one entry after one entry gets you little appreciation. What I think you should do is make an art gallery flash with all the 666 entries. There would be a menu with buttons and each button will take you to a different picture. The buttons would be in chronological order of course. Then again, it could take up a lot of file space, so it would be wise to learn tricks in reducing file size or just include a couple pictures in each gallery just so it stays at the required/recommended file size. Also next to each picture you should have the comments you posted on each entry, some are really interesting, like the 666ApocolypticSupremacy comment.
P.S. Speaking of liking thunderstorms, I wonder if you are into or inspired by that New Age Star Child stuff.

Sir-CannabisClock responds:

dunno what new age star child is XD

thanks muchly for the input, I do have plans to go beyond these silly little still frames :D

Can Anyone Say "Almost"?

Yes, I complement you on your artwork, and presentation. The Picture you show me is unnerving pic of a young man in an undershirt holding someone bleeding heart in his hand with twisted smirk on his face. Not for the "faint of heart". Previous turd entries often have these habits of showing hilariously bad artwork, crappy dubbing, crappy sound quality and juxtoposed photo pics. Usually the tirade ends with Piclownjew screaming in my ears. The reason why it gets a turd? Because its a still picture, and the only people wowed by still pictures are usually those silly clock people. However, still pictures like these are not necessarily the animated movies which people come to this site for, however this file would be welcomed at a Deviantart page

Sir-CannabisClock responds:

I see. I can welcome your criticizm.

However, few things I must say:

It's a young lady, with sharp teeth holding the bleeding hard. Double check the chest area.

I agree with the usual tirade comment, with the exeption I fid it funny.

And it probably would, but it would have no music and be a lesser quality. Besides, I'm a ng guy, not into that deviant art stuff.

Amongst The Cruddy Graphics Is a Decent Storyline.

Usually I am one of those people who go to this site for thrill inducing animation. I aspire to be one the amazing animators on this site. However, there is an individual in our society that is overlooked. That would be the story writer. To be honest, the graphics were pure sewage. The visuals were remenscent of extremely early NG quality stuff made from flash 5 paint tools. The results are bland and very juxtoposized images. Yet I gave this entry a chance and discovered a very bizarre post-apocalyptic tale of cops and cultists with a strong, hard political overtone. As sat through this entry, it got to this weird spiritual segment with John Wayne, who was actually the devil. I was thinking. "What kind of mind thinks this up? A very different mind that for sure!" Although the graphics were telling me "Blam this, it has terrible sound loops and looks like crud". I still had the instinct to read this storyline. To me it looked like a spam entry, but it did not feel like a spam entry. And man it WAS long, but I did not care. I wanted to watch through this movie and vote fairly. At the end there is a message to the NG public that summarizes the author's main message on authority. He tells how we have voted purely based on visuals sound and flashy anime effects. I mean check out Vinnie's work Hoy te Amo; it has amazing hand drawn animation, but no story whatsoever. Check out all the Madness films; limbless figures beating each other up. Look at Legendary Frog; He resorts to stealing simpsons jokes for a plot. Look at Illwillpress; He resorts to having a little cartoon squirell complain about things in a high-pitched voice. Look at Knox; He resorts to having his half-@$$ed clay creations do retarded things. Look at the Star Syndicate and Piconjers; they complain about Knox, Illwillpress, and LF for their lack of artistry, and yet most of their skills are based on funny portal spammery antics and digitally beating their satire subjects, sometimes through full hand drawn animated glory(it is not very plot based mind you). Not to mention, the Clocks, Locks, and Glocks can only make original stories based on previous portal antics. It is an epidemic. Most of us look at a movie and blam or save it mainly for points. Never before, has entry caused so much dilemia within my sanity. For that, I dare to say that I have voted 5 on this entry, and yet I give to the author critique on his artwork and flimsy sound. The 5 is for the overall message this unfortunate piece of likely portal fodder has brought onto me. I am deeply grateful for this message. I encourage the author to work on his artistry skills. Of course if he needs an artist someday, it might be me. Perhaps we might cross paths and collaberate on something in the future. Once again I pray for the salvation of this entry.

Isledeavarice responds:

Wow, people actually get this one. My "August Underground" stuff, almost no one understands that stuff. This one, even though its far more complex is understood by quite a lot of people.

I think its because I made it clear, right from the title, what kind of a movie this was. I was originally gonna call it "stump the cops" - but something told me to call it "long movie with a plot". I guessed right.

Good to see some feedback on this stuff.

I think that if it wasn't for the "blam points" system, there would be stuff on this site that told an actual story AND had great animation. The blam point system makes people just vote 0 or 5 without even watching it to the end to get more voting power.
It should be scrapped.

Again thanks for a 'real' review of one of my movies.

O-h-m-y-g-o-d-I-m-o-n-f-i-r-e- !

A musical that was on fire! Thats genius, and I like the way lyrics distance us from the horror.

XxwaSSupxX responds:

Everyone likes music and everyone likes fire! What more could you ask for?

[Project #087 Explanation]

Thanks For the Idea

You might want to make presentation and process go a little bit faster the next time. But thanks for a fun activity idea.

RatherRandomReality responds:

A bit faster, ah? :) I was kinda distracted making this one. That's why it's that long. But this is the idea after all.

[Clockday 2006 Collab]

Fun.

Can you my a list of the music featured here? I like the loop from the "your the best" segment because I heard it on an epsiode of South Park once. I also enjoyed the techno segment with the green cyber wire loop. Please list the names of the tracks you used.

Orangebeef responds:

don't know.. i stole em from ytmnd is all i can say
