It kicked ass. There's really not much more to say about it.

You really cramped alot of good animation and scenes in there, which makes me want to watch it often

I'm a fan of your stuff, and I remember thinking your other Astroboy vid was pretty cool, so naturally I had to check this one out. Initially, I was turned off by the song, but then about halfway into the vid it seemed like things really started to pick up and the amv became really enjoyable. Lots of good stuff going on in here, and it was just fun. Good work indeed.

good stuff indeed

I loved the song

. loved how you used the footage, but my only nitpick was that the whole AMV was speeded up :/, that kinda decieved my eyes on the synch and I don't like being decieved lol.

Anyway I thought this was pretty darn good, I remember watching this version of Astro boy, though I got bored of it after some episodes

. Nice to see the old school character in a cool AMV like this one

congrats on the awards too

4/5

Interesting choice of music, but I thought that it fit really well with your vid. Good work!

nah... nobody's heard of me.
I disagree. You made the ROD video that sucked up resources like a mofo. And you use Magix. That's enough for me.

Also, I thought the video was awesome, and I know of at least two Astroboy advocates that I need to show it to.

lol...k
and I guess all Magix users know about each other...

every last mofo...

Can't say I loved the song, but the video itself was all sorts of win. Nice work!

The song kinda depends how much you let the mindlessness take over |:
But it's good to hear it was fuckin awesome!

That's okay... it's not going anywhere.

Warheart wrote:Damn, this video had me on the edge of the seat. It's been quite some time since I'Ve seen so much oldschool awesomeness in one video. You had this right sources, being an anime with lots of motion and a song that just builds up adrenalin all by itself. You combined them with brilliant oldschool editing like Rubyeye did it back in the days. I'm very impressed, definietly my fave video for quite some time. Thanks alot,for this excellent piece of oldschool action.

Thank you. I'm very glad you liked it

This means a lot to me.

yes, I figured this combination would strike an oldschool chord with some people. I specifically picked a song that would be badass-- Not too heavy, but not too silly either. And I also looked through the clips specifically for movement scenes. Thanks for the feedback

Bakadeshi wrote:yup I remember that imfamous 60fps ROD vid I think that alone has gotten your name in a few peoples heads.

Still have it on my HD somewhere in fact.

I realy dug your sync style in that, so I'm expecting good things here.

downloading....

O.O

just in case, I made a yousendit link for the .mp4 here

The end(ish) had me thinking Astroshield 21?

oldschool ownage,

Also, no problems at all playing the mp4 on my laptop, which is significantly lower specs than my desktop, though still a Turion 64 @ 1800Mhz.

sorry, I don't quite follow-- but lol is good... and so is pwnage^^

also, good playback stat. Thanks

Mixed results so far with the song, and I can't blame you for that. The sync thing makes me wonder about playback. I know you know how to play an amv

but the 60fps sometimes messes up in other players [like MPC w/CCCP for ex.] in two ways: slowly unsyncing as the vid progresses. and interleaving the audio by a couple ms. I always try to use VLC... and if that's what you used... dunno

Glad the last minute was awesome.

I figured that would be good for review purposes.

Been getting feedback from you since The Human Equation , and it's really encouraging.

Really glad you liked the song man
deception eh? ... just give in to it... that's what it's all about.

Astro Boy (2003) actually has a decent storyline... it's just so damn long... and has some 'kiddy' episodes. But I hear the second half has some darker themes [I'm at ep30, and it's starting to pick up]. I'm not sure if that's why the last 20 eps weren't aired in America... but I'll find out

longest post from me ever and I'll gladly accept more, Especially QC's since I always wanna know what people think.

I did play it back in MPC, because I hate VLC...but I'll give it another look.

don't take it as a "deception" I just couldn't see the synch so clearly as I use to see it in other AMVs (and believe me that if I don't find the synch then is an instant fail for me) but as I said it may be due to the footage being speeded up (since I didn't had problems playing the files) and I didn't find it to be off synch either so yeah I have mixed feelings here

.

I was watching it in Cartoon Network I think (when it was aired here) and yeah they indeed got to a good part, but CN started to loop the episodes which pissed me off and of course I stopped watching it

Well what to say Phantasmagoriat, other then i like it xD

Bakadeshi · Post by **Bakadeshi** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 10:03 am

vlc in general requires much less resources to play H264 than the windows media interface. Anytime something doesn't play in sync for me in MPC (or any other windows media interface player for that matter), VLC handles it just fine. I just wish they'd hurry and fix that (somehwat) broken subtitle support so I can watch my fansubs on there also ;p
