[The Faun and the Nymph]

wonderful progression

great animation, surprisingly engaging premise for something so short... bite sized if you will (heh heh bite sized, sigh) outcome was wonderful and disgusting. one a think twice act once careful personality, the other a snap decision, as the wind blows you, spontaneous personality, may get them into trouble at times i suppose, and put them at loggerheads at other times, but, thats the very thing that suit them to each other. i find this flash amusing, but i also find what it implies very sweet. look at how he tries to take care of her, a bit bull rushing yes but, wonderful, and trust she puts in him (tested at times i'm sure by his spontaneous ways). also the reference to Greek and Roman mythology is nicely done, in that nymphs were often the targets of satyrs and in some interpretations, satyrs and fauns are one and the same. also the allusion to a working inter-racial/species relationship is not lost at all.

wonderful

scribblepit responds:

Haha, this review is too detailed and long for me to ignore:) Thankyou. There may be a slight change in their personalities in later episodes to fit my original idea for them but nothing too major. I'm glad you picked up on the faun/nymph relationship thing and for a sneak peek into the following episode It'll probably be dealing with the interpretation of Faun's having an obsession with wine and women.

[Shallow Lake]

Great Flash, Good Message

but maybe just a bit grim, in truth it is a wonder about the way of things, pock ugly guy want 'Babelicious' gal to look at him for who he really is and fall madly in love with him, mean while, freckled wallflowers may be pinning over him and attracting only contempt and/or pity friendship. hypocrisy at its grandest and ugliest.

what are we gonna do about us? sigh
great flash, great message. a bit cynical but completely on point.

[why link isnt a surgeon]

that was entertaining for the mind and the soul

subtle, intelligent, poking fun at all the right things, in all the right ways, the link-speak bit was genius and the 'flute' bit was cold, dark niceness. all around good, sorry, GREAT flash. hehe, Forceps Get!

[Peter Peel: can can can't]

not boring if you came with the right mindset

and thanks to all the reviews i came with the right mindset. this was a subtle comedy, in the way that a comedy is not necessarily supposed to be hilarious but is supposed to be humorous. if you can clear your mind of expectations and come accepting of subtle humor then you will find a small smile from this. oh yeah, and i don't give spoilers in m reviews. just opinions.

[Nicolas Cage Wants Cake]

uhm....

there maybe such a thing as being too much of a fan... hehe that was a bizarre collage of ideas, throwbacks, references and insanity, damn funny thing is i like it! does that make me weird? by the way, any one who isn't a cage fan will have missed some of the genius references and inferences made in this flash. like me for example... Oh well.

[Dental Appointment]

now that was funny...

strange but funny, i don't really have any irks with this flash, top notch quality, great premise, better twist than i've seen before. but... there just seems to be somthing missing.

[Mario's Castle Calamity 2]

extremely funny but...

it is very similar to the last one, which isn't bad because it retains the nonsensical hilarity of the last one, but although it is just as entertaining, it just feels like feels like De javu. Too many of the bits in this piece feel like slight alterations of the bits in the previous one, for example, as far as i can remember, there was a bit with Mario being 'vacuumed' by a squid in the last one, but here it is three squids, in nearly the same exact situation. there are other examples but i believe you as the author should review your last one and consider what i have said, unless the similarities were your intention all along.
