    Well, I guess that goes to show that doing things in the middle of an english classs just doesn't pay off.

    Coulda clipped the music better, but hey, all animation and shit.

    I'm a little torn

    I mean Hunter's got me to laugh but with a cheap throwaway joke

    Odin definitely put in more effort and the promise of continuity is always intriguing, but the pacing had issues

    I guess the gay makeouts puts it over the top for me with Odin

    I didn't really get the Pro Choice thing at the end, but the unuurr and aduur were definitely funny. Had to go with Odin's though, the ending was just swell.

    I thought maybe you gave him a rifle lobotomy.

    Anyway, machineanima was old in 2005, not that that argument will garner you any sympathy.

    It's...

    pretty much half the point of the game in question.

    Naah, it just grazed his neck

    You can't really lobotomy a guy with no brain

    It's hard to see but in the first picture there is really bad lensflare going through his head

    Just like in real life

    Also Black Hunter's was better because it really made fun of Odin as well instead of just killing him and hurf durf that's the end

    it was definitely a tough one for me

    I mean both got a chuckle at the end with a throwaway joke that really didn't have much to do with the rest of the submission

    but in that case I had to go with Odin's for better production value

    Rane vs msuit is the only one that really had a funny differential

    I did it the day it was due because I got all confused about the day it was due. For some reason I thought it was like a week FROM the date or something, no idea why.

    So I did it during class in my workbook which is now ruined cause of the pages I tore out.

    like 49c down the drain.

    gaaaaawsh


    Odin has a hellovalot of potential, but some more "funny" would have been good, maybe just something happening in the background.

    The pacing on Odin's was horrible. But the technical accomplishment, plus the gay cowboys, made up for it just enough. Also, I can't quite figure out what is going on in the Black Hunter's entry. Whatever that is in panel 5 seems like it is important to the plot but I can't make it out, so Odin gets the win.

    But did he say it was supposed to be twice that long? Dear lord. If he does that in a future round, he's doomed.
