"JOKES ON YOU, I DON'T EVEN HAVE BALLS!"

submission: Chris & Harry

date: November 9, 2008

But seriously, Dude...

Amazing work, you've come on leaps and bounds in the last year. The timing of the nut shot was poifect, I'm jealous, truly. You made me look funny for a change.

This could be the beginning of something truly beautiful, maybe I could produce Chris and Harry 2, scrap that how about Harry and Chris!? I still hate you though.

"Well I liked it!"

submission: Awesome Racer

date: August 7, 2008

A lot.

I don't believe there's such a thing as an expression of oneself which isn't true to oneself...no matter how some people will try to convince you otherwise.

It doesn't matter that it looks or sounds akin to something else, after all, it's what you intended it to be and it's still an original expression!

Bottom line - you got off your ass and made something good, fuck people who give you any shit for that.

"So full of win..."

submission: Dining with the Devil

date: August 5, 2008

Thanks for finally sharing this with the rest of the world instead of keeping it to yourself you greedy grecko.

Can't wait til I see you again and we indulge in faintly racist humour.

Miss you xxx

"What was that??"

submission: Intruder Returns

date: July 24, 2008

Absolutely no story or drama whatsoever, there was conflict sure. but without the slightest clue as to who the characters were or what was happening I couldn't feel invested in their struggle. Don't get me wrong, I adore mindless action, but if that's all there it is, then it needs to be visually arresting, and this wasn't.

Detail isn't attractive without design. You picked the dullest camera angles possible and overall made a lot of boring aesthetic decisions, this would have been fine had there been some substance to the whole ordeal...

Regardless I can see you worked hard on this, and you should carry on with making your films, it's up to you whether or not you choose to take on board any of this advice. Best to you man.

"So weird and perverse..."

submission: RWD: 016 PUSSY

date: July 7, 2008

Well done Mr Van Harken.

Loved the colours and artwork, good acting in the live action bit as well.

Looks like you just ran with the idea and had fun with it, I did too.

"Marry me...."

submission: Alfred's Playhouse Pt. 2

date: June 30, 2008

This goes way way beyond the most mental thing I can possibly ever hope to imagine, let alone bring to life as an animation, I love you.

Are you spoken for?

"This tore my crazy legs in two!"

submission: Owls

date: June 19, 2008

Where to start??

Don't think I've ever reviewed your stuff before, I've liked most of it but I'm not as rabid as some of your fans. That all changed with this submission.

I find that most 'random lol' humour to be (s)hit and miss, anyone can throw togethere a few obscure things with little consideration and hope for the best, but it takes a good comedian to put together something utterly non sequitir which is still smart.

Where as I don't think this is groundbreaking (you've done similar things before) I think your most adorable animation to date, the graphics and lyrics are perfect, and the arrangement of the song, especcially the 'Simon Cowell your days are numbered...' movement, is eerie, dramatic and tragically beautiful.

Best of British, yadda yadda

"Do your thing!"

submission: Grand Theft Awesome

date: June 12, 2008

Dude, that was hilarious, it was actually funnier in my opinion than half of egoraptor's stuff. I don't think you needed to refer to him at all, the art style is similar yes, but writing wise I thought it felt a little cleverer and less obvious, and it worked well because of that.

Score: 8

"You deserve frontpage"

submission: Metal Gear: Hands On

date: June 6, 2008

I watched this a little while ago and thought 'Dang, if this disappears into obscurity it will be a real shame'.

But now you're hanging out with the front page boiz and you're in the collection, and great voice acting, good choice of poses, and a very funny idea means that you deserve to be.

"Maggoty Beautiful"

submission: "Winter"

date: June 3, 2008

I love to see hard work and artistry gone towards something which doesn't take itself too seriously. I'm honestly not sure what sort feelings you aimed to instill in us all with this piece, I was laughing at the ludicrous juxtaposition of the two scenarios, but not without a tiny sense of guilt.

The music was very unusual also, which I liked. Did you do it? Still trying to figure out what that odd theramin style sound was.
