My stuff on Youtube
Lately I've been particular to uploading videos Newgrounds because of the small file size and better community for Flash animation, but I still like being able to see stuff on Youtube that can be paused and fast-forwarded and stuff. Here's just a repost of all my stuff that I've made, and also posted to Newgrounds. Except for one film I made in 3D, that's only on Youtube.

Nobody remembers this show
The 1980's were pretty bad for animation. I'm sorry, they were. All of those awesome shows like Ninja Turtles? THEY SUCKED!! And yet, even though they were cheesy, had bad animation, poor writing, TOTALLY HIP characters with TUBULAR catchphrases, and especially the merchandising.. we love them, and fondly remember these treasures from yesteryear that spent more time with us as kids than our parents did.
So anyway, while wading through tons of ancient VHS tapes one day, I came across something called "Star Street: The Adventures of the Star Kids". It looked oddly familiar, maybe because I had seen it before or maybe because it reminded me of something I'd seen before. So I popped it into my VCR and watched it. I mean, honestly, it was ok. It's about these "Star Kids", each being a personification of the astrological signs. They look like pink yoshis with hearts on their noses. This one's Bubbles (Pisces)
It wasn't bad for a kids show. Not the best, but for some weird reason, I LOVE it.
It's well animated for a dutch 1980's kids show, the characters are simple but their designs are pretty cute, their expressions go beyond the limits of what their designs would let them go in a cartoon made today. It's kind of like the Smurfs, they're always under constant assault by a giant gluttonous purple blob in space who has an army of fat bumbling green dudes, it's also sort of like Care Bears but much less gay than it. Probably gayer than the Smurfs, though.
The show has some great moments, it's way better than most of the shit I watched when I was younger. It doesn't just teach kids bogus shit like "sharing is caring" and "drugs aren't cool", its themes are about teamwork and devotion, characters having internal conflicts all the time and stuff. I remember thinking the Pokemon show was pretty cool when I was about 10, this kind of reminded me of it because it's a fun and interesting concept where the characters try and fail and learn and grow, and help eachother through tough situations to outsmart the dumb bad guys. Not just like in the Smurfs where everything seems to go back to normal by act of God. I mean how fucking hard is it to destroy their stupid village? Gargamel's some kind of warlock and the Smurfs aren't smart or ingenuic or cunning at all.
Anyway, I'm too tired to critically analyze shitty late 80's early 90's childrens television. That's all for now.

GUNJANI!
Our hero has chosen to go out on a perilous journey of REVENGE. You can tell by the silhouettes and the evil smiles that he is not FRIENDS with those people behind him, quite the opposite!! The caption, clearly stating the entire plot of the story, destroys any subtlety there once was to the character, making him entirely transparent!! And yet, what does he want revenge for?? What did they do to him?? WHY DOES IT MATTER!?FIND OUT WHEN THIS MARVELOUS FLASH VIDEO GAME ENTERS PRODUCTION!!!
UNLOCKABLE CONCEPT ART AFTER GETTING 3000000000000 POINTS ON HEAVY TRIAL MODE
YOU CAN TELL HE IS A VERY DEEP CHARACTER FROM THE SWEATBAND
AND THE ? ON HIS SHIRT?! HOW ENIGMATIC!
Who are THESE colorful characters??
A GIRL bad guy? What an age we live in!!!
