Mercutio Vs. Tybalt Vs. Romeo
Here's a video I made as a final project for my English unit. It's an adaptation from Romeo and Juliet (Act III, scene 1).
Great! 5/5
I loved how you modernized the look of the play, yet still kept the old english. I found that really funny! The animation was decent, it could have been a little better. The guns, of course, give it another point or two.
Animation: 7
Story: 8
Cinimatography: 6
Effects: 5
Overall: 7.4
I'm going to (eventually) make a Romeo and Juliet film as well. I just finished reading it and I couldn't understand what they were saying. So I thought of a shorter, translated version. Funny how I'm going to do the opposite of what you did. You moderized the time period and kept the language, but I'm going to keep the time period and modernize the language.
8.7/10!!!!!!!!!!!
I couldn't understand the talking (No, I don't mean because it is old English, I mean it is hard to hear, the microphone quality is poor.) But the action was good, very entertaining. I have to say though, you can't blow up a car by shooting the gas tank, the myth busters proved that wrong a few years ago.

You are referring to Mercutio's lines, perhaps? My friend voice acted for that part as a last resort. He doesn't voice act much, so quality was on the tipsy side with him.

Tell that to James Bond 
Thanks for the responses, guys! I appreciate it!

they never tested lego cars and gas tanks....
Wouldn't the lego car just melt?
The mix between modern life and Ye Olde Shakespeare was very well done. Excellent fighting sequences too! I hope your class got to see it - they would have definitely enjoyed it!
She thought you didn't make it?
Yeah, she thought I had stolen it from somewhere. Maybe it's because I'm a little bit of a slacker in that class, but that doesn't mean I'm a slacker everywhere I go. Everybody has to be dedicated to something. The way she said it it felt like she never expected me to amount to anything.
Oh well, I got 100, anyways.

You should name your animation/film company after her (Á la Lynyrd Skynyrd) olol.
I enjoyed the film having read Romeo And Juliet last year I found myself mouthing lines along with it a couple of times.
Great technical work and a good adaption of what was going on. Nice work.

That was pretty wonderful! A quite enjoyable film, with some subtle fight sequences and over-average animation, it made for an entertaining viewing. However my main nit-pick is with the voice acting - while Hazzat provided some fabulous lines, the rest of the cast muttered their words and made it quite hard to understand.
7/10
Of course I must also apologize for not being able to deliver them for Tybalt (I think), my Mac wasn't available at the time, thus making it impossible for me record anything.
Oh God... ^^
But so...
Great film!
Edit: The spambot is gone now.
Anyway, nice film.
