    Okay I don't get platypus' entry.

    But I'm going to vote for him anyway because GSM used the Law and Order CHUNG-CHUNG sound with a CSI: Miami joke. :P

    Not even going to hazard a guess on time.
    I have a CD of Hanna Barberra sound effects, and I found online a CD of MGM 40s and 50s cartoon music.
    The soundtrack is assembled from 5 different cartoons. Various Tex Avery, and some Tom & Jerry.

    I want those fx desperately, and as someone who has a pretty good idea how long it takes and how much effort goes into productions like you just did, I tip my hat to you, sir

    now get busy on your next entry, fool, this is precisely why I dropped out of this year's battle

    Flash version 5.

    And some ancient copy of photoshop (single digit version number I think?), cool edit for sound, and fireworks for converting PSD into transparent PNG.

    There's a point where I stop being impressed and just have to think "that's just too much." The odometer of awesomeness went past completely awesome and broke.

    This is like, Globetrotters vs. washington generals level. Except, there's no jolly music, or dunking.

    I feel bad for platypus, I told him he could beat you with a picture if he believed in the heart of the cards. I lied to him.

    At least you tried platypus.

    the sfx were awesome and the plane/train sequence was just perfect.

    PB draws nice, he should have drawn more.

    The secret is inbetweening. Draw key poses, and then overlay them, and draw inbetween. Repeat that between the new frames again and again, until the motion is smooth. Even terrible art like mine feels passable when animated with sufficient inbetweening.

    okay, Platypus vilifying GSM as the one who killed dumbledore was cute. On the other hand GSM managed to not only remind me of nearly every old cartoon I used to love, but also gave a perfect Justice Shades joke.

    Also, "This is clearly not Miami."

    However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.
