Happy St Paddy's Day!
That was an awesome commercial for Guinness.
A neat flash, though where did you get that Irish accent from? It sounded wrong, even Scottish in places. Besides, everyone knows that real Irishmen talk only to fill in the gaps between drinking Guinness.
I loves the jokes you wrote on the subtitles, they reminded me of Hot Shots Part Deux. That leads me nicely to my question - where do you get your inspiration from?
I'm looking forward to the next instalment of Sherbert
Well my family has alot of Irish blood, and I love st. Patrick's day and I love Making sherbert animations so there would be my inspiration, as for the irish accent, that was my irish grandfather doing that voice so I don't think you can be very critical.
ANYWAY, thanks for the review really appreciate it!

^^Good Points^^
A nice St. Patrick's Day themed movie here. I like how in this episode you actually had some voice overs, which were quite well done. The storyline was rather funny, with a good amount of jokes spread in between.
^^Needs Improving^^
The thing that can improve the most would have to be the graphics. That one part at the dude's house the background looked like runescape or something.

Lol, honestly I like the backgrounds, I was using Photoimpression 4 to draw them out fancy. Runescape though, that hurts. heh heh heh. I'm glad you liked it though!
well
'odd sounds exterme cat lovers make' i can relate to that. i have been know to make that sound to anything on 4 legs. or no legs. my pet rat can tell you that. what really makes me laugh is going to the pet store with her on my shoulder and freak people out. seems to make it worst though that i'm a girl doing that. it seems to add of the gross out factor . . . or something. but, i'm way off base here.
good pace, nice energy, cartoonish charm intact.
4 out of 5
Interesting...
At first I thought this is going to be one of those random gay flashes when I saw the first part but then I learnt it was only an intro. The actual flash was well designed and plotted. I quite liked it.
Your drawing is pretty good and the cat was animated well. It is harder than it looks moving four legs at a time and you did well. The sound was also ok. The music was fitting and the voices weren't too bad. Subtitles and a preloader were a good idea. Helping out your audience help YOU get more views and positive feed back. :)
However you could improve by smoothening out your graphics and animation. They weren't too good and there's always room for improvement. The voices were ok but could have been done better with more talented voice actors and more accurate lip-sycning. I also don't think the beginning part of the flash was kind of un-neseccary and looked bad in my view.

thanks for your detailed review, it's very helpful!
too many rough edges
The bug with the 'facts' button is probably because you have the facts after the movie. Flash loads frames in order, so if you want pre-loader content, place that first. And you can use 'if(_root._framesloaded>5)' or whatever to check a particular frame.
Drawings could have been improved. I thought the shot with the border closing in on the dude's eyes didn't work too well. frankly, your drawings aren't good enough to pull off that kind of 'dramatic' shot.
The facial expressions during the ramble about Guinness made me smile. I think you should maybe exaggerate your expressions more.
The Guinness ramble and the drunk-malarkey both got a smile from me.
I felt the way you broke up the start with your 'the most amazing adventure yet' 'here it comes' 'okay, okay, this is it' 'TITLE' snippets of text seemed slightly irritating.

It was a decent story and some of it made me smile.
But I just kinda felt like there were too many rough edges for me to be able to really enjoy it. Also, some of it seemed kinda formulaic and dull.
Thanks for the review. I do know how to fix the buttons, but right now it's pure lazyness. I will get to it. Anyway thanks for your input.
