I tried putting lots of effort into this movie unlike my others but now that i've done this much work on it , it just seems like there's nothing special about it and its lame
it doesn't seem amusing or funny to me at all
even though the "animation" is better it's still shit compared to

so what do you guys think of it? (maybe I just don't like it because I've watched it so many times to look for problems etc)
I like it alot personally, there's not anything really wrong with it. But if you were to nitpick at really small things, Maybe you could ease the tweens in the beggining when the "camera" so to speak is lowering to the road. I don't really know how to describe things correctly, so sorry if I was no help.
that was nice so far
finish it
does it seem funny/silly at all? because that's what i want to make
even though visually it looks fine and the animation you attempted is nice and smooth, i am gonna nitpick
the reason this isnt funny and isnt going to be funny is your characters arent real characters. theyre personal forum avitars that you animate. its that same old stale clock crew formula "hey im gonna animate a representation of myself because i have no better ideas and its easy!" im not seeing much of a storyline or purpose other than to practice animation, which is fine i guess but try animating a real person or something else instead of that chicken leg... or whatever it is.
also the song has been used too often before. if you want it to be funny i suggest either using dialog instead of a music video, or just changing the music.
is stagbeetle still around? i love that guy :'(
are you saying my other movies are unfunny as well
and yeah stagbeetle has nice movies like, some of them are funny to just about everyone who watches them and the only humor they contain isn't some lame inside jokes but after submitting 1 frame flashes for 2 years i dont quite know how to do this
come on everybody i need your help...
Quote from: Orangebeefare you saying my other movies are unfunny as well
yes but that doesnt mean theyre bad
im just saying switch up your style a little bit and it could make it a lot funnier

are you trying to say "this isn't funny because the characters aren't looking like humans" because that would be utterly stupid.
What every flash movie needs:
1. a story/script
2. voice acting
3. character development
4. human characters, not chicken wings, stars or any shit like that

he's saying it isn't funny because the avatar-based characters are generic, uninspired alternatives to characters that can perform actions other than hopping from place to place
blarg
or can they

i don't see how an orange beef character is "generic".

no? then I suppose you're either unfamiliar with the large number of flashes on ng featuring screen name based characters (which seems unlikely based on your avatar) or you're having trouble with this pesky english language
i made this username when i was 11 lmao

^^^this
im sorry but dialog is not funny if its done with speakonia and characters are not relatable when they dont have a well defined face.

all the more reason to expand your horizons
again i think you're a dam good animator which is why im suggesting you take it a step further than what you have always done, purely for creativity's sake
I'm happy making beef movies as it is
and I know why this movie isn't funny, not because avatars gay bouncing shit isn't funny but because I haven't put any lame animated .gif s tweening around!! I had a good idea for the ending, though
also would it be better if I did actual voice acting as horrid as it may be
speakonia is a wonderous program
Quote from: Orangebeefalso would it be better if I did actual voice acting as horrid as it may be
yes i think so
either that or get a voice actor to do it
you can make an avatar character funny
just give it a personality. thats all it needs, really. a soul.
