[A Dream Lost]

What?

I really don't see why everyone thinks this is so touching. A bug fell. So everyone thinks that, in order to look like they are intelligent, they must analyze this deeply and say, "It delivers a powerful message." Well, what I saw was a short, pretty crappy movie that pretends to have a deep and meaningful message, but in the end, is just really boring. "From My Room" delivers a strong and powerful message, while this fails to touch me in the least. You'll get no accolades from me, but that won't matter with the number of people who pretend to be intelligent.

["From my Room"]

Odd...

A few weeks ago, my friend told me that this movie was stupid. I hadn't seen it yet, at that time, so I didn't really say anything. So today, when I saw it, I was really surprised. The animation is really well done. The movie conveys a nice message, without getting sappy or stupid. Very nice.

I knew this would happen...

Whether or not it was the intention of the author to, on a day like this, take advantage of the situation and make a movie that is really just crappy, I don't know. It probably wasn't just meant to get good ratings here. But that's what's happened. People think that to show respect for the people who died, they must vote high on pieces of crap like this. Here's the way: if you are religious, say a prayer; if you're not, just shut up. But you don't flood the Portal with shit and pass it off as art.

[HK Mobs]

Not too good.

This game would have been much better had it actually involved more real gameplay, rather than clicking your enemy as fast as you can. It gets boring and repetitive really fast. However, this game has decent graphics, so that's a plus. By the way, it was odd that "Flash" had an earring on his right ear, and then proceeded to have sex with that woman.

[Portal Blues (Fixed)]

This is rather stupid.

There are those who make movies to help make the Portal great, and then there are those who like to make movies that complain and bitch and don't help at all. It's pretty obvious that the author of this is the type who complains. It's been done, we've gotten the message, and we don't need a hundred more telling us what's wrong with the Portal. Then again, this looks like an attempt to cover up the fact that this guy has no talent in Flash anyhow, so he couldn't possibly tell us how to do it right. Overall this movie sucked. Big time.

[Garbage (version 3.1)]

HAHAHAH!!!

This game, though simple, is quite fun. Nice metaphor too. It could use some sound, but overall, a good job!
