Wait wait wait wait. Wait.

Wait.

Wait.

Guys.

Guys, this is the best- GUYS!

This is the best idea ever.

What if- guys pay attention- what if...

Guys, what if we made 8-bit Flash movies?

Tev · 05-03-2010, 05:17 PM

Wasn't that done already? I thought we weren't encouraging that kind of behavior anymore....

HURRAH MY PASSWORD WORKS! :3 (took a couple weeks to figure out his password since he couldn't find the password reset)

Anyways

What the guy above tev said was obviously a joke. :| I mean come on, how can you take something worded like that seriously? :o

If he was, well okay then :P

In all seriousness even if you made the best flash movie you could make, with good voice acting and good timing and all, it'd still be extremely boring to watch because unless you went to truly monstrous efforts it'd be largely static pictures of 8-bit sprites in various settings while someone read out the dialogue.

I liked the old flash movies on newgrounds.

Kinda sad that they were discontinued....but eh. Must have been too much work. >_<

I said with nothing inbetween.

By the way, I liked the Flash Series a lot as well. It made the oldest comics that much better... But I doubt they'd work for the newer strips. They are to different from the first few.

Eh, the Flash movies have... issues.

Issues like inconsistent sound quality, which I guess you can overlook considering everyone probably had different recording equipment, but also sound effects and silly accents in place of actual voice acting, and pretty dubious voice acting where there were no sound effects and silly accents. And timing, and using the comic straight up as a script, and so on.

Y'know, something manga-y only less (or more) stupid.

Ooo! And set it in China! With Kung-Fu! And lots of flashbacks and flashbacks within flashbacks!

Wait a bloody second.....That seems familiar. Meh, probably nothing.

Also as for an 8bit book, $120 each may be on the expensive side...Lemme do some math. I work at a printing company so I am a credible source.

$75 for a cheap ass, low quality phone book yellow pages style crock-o-crap.

For a higher quality book done on something in the likes of a children's book. Your looking at more along the lines of $175 to $250 depending on if you want high quality paper, full coverage on ink, heat set to prevent offset, and other fun stuff like that.

I said it should be IMPROVED, not made WORSE.
