A Nice Standupish Comedy Piece
It goes without saying that the jokes and the insights are more than superb, however, the execution of such a routine as a flash cartoon (while maintaining the comedic effect of a toonless routine) can be a difficult task. It is the truly great flash artists who can interpret such things and give them a new life that they wouldn't have ever been able to attain had they been left unanimated. Of course some of the monolouge contains jokes dependent on the visuals for any comedy to surmise, but when watching this you get the feel that somehow the director did not even consider pushing any boundaries, and only did the bare minimum stylistically. Not that this is a bad thing, it is good for a director or creator of a flash toon to know his or her limits. And A Men's Room Monologue apparently loses none of it's comedic impact in a flash toon form. But it undoubtedly doesn't gain much either. The creator is clearly a talented comedian who has yet to fully realize his flash or toon directorial skills. If he is reading this I mean not to be discouraging but inspirational. I look forward to your next work.
