Dragon Warrior Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 It's done, my good people. This year's Otaku Christmas Special is complete. It took me around six to eight hours to make if you include all the times my computer froze and I lost what I was working on, but I think it turned out just fine and I'm pleased with the results. [center][img]http://img130.exs.cx/img130/5610/Syk3reindeer.jpg[/img][/center] This animation seemed bigger than last year's (How The James Stole Christmas), so I decided to split it up into two animations, part one and part two. I'm glad I did because it helped keep the graphics from turning crappy like they did in "How the James..." last year. But anyways, here are the animations. I took the liberty of uploading "How the James Stole Christmas" as well, for old times sake. Be sure to watch it too if you're up for it. They're both pretty lengthy. I hope you enjoy. To give you the heads up, it might run a tad slower than it's supposed to if your internet browser is poopy. If it is slow, it's not the animation. Sorry. Merry Christmas and once again, I hope you enjoy!

If you want, you can try it with the Rudolph tune. How fun, fun, silly! [b]Syk3 the Corroded Reindeer, was really nasty indeed, His looks could give you pink eye, or make you wanna get high off weed. All of the other mods used to pop a cap in his ***, Now they just lightly beat him every time he goes to pass. It?s because of one crazy day when James danced on the scene... "Syk3, you were a disgusting thing, but now you?re not, so let?s all sing." Then everyone thought he was okay and gave out a low grumble, Syk3 the Corroded reindeer, better watch out for the Bumble![/b] And now I'll answer some questions that may be asked... [list] [*]Yes, Shinmaru was a naked elf. [*]Yes, I died. [*]Poor bumble... [*]Dr. Phil is a Texas psychiatrist with a talk show. He's not actually a superhero as I depicted him. [*]I dunno what happened to Syk3 after he was mauled. [*]Queen Asuka is hott as a reindeer :^D [*]The sky is blue. [*]meh >:O [/list] Anyways, I think that about covers things. ------------- DO COMMENT ;^D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Tremaine Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 [COLOR=#503F86]Simply astounding, Gavynn ^______^ I loved it, heh. "Time for naked!" will forever hold a special place in my memory. My only gripe is the song lyrics don't exactly scan, but that's a moot point. They're incredibly funny, but takes a few times over to cram into the Rudolph tune exactly. Hardly a major defect, though ^_~ I can't think of anything else to say, really. It's just [i]that[/i] good.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinmaru Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Gee, what a lovely and pertinent moral :p I liked it, it was pretty funny. My favorite bit was all of James' crazy dancing. His character reminded me of Prince Peasley from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, even though Peasley does no dancing whatsoever. lol When am I ever going to get paid for my appearances in these things? :flaming: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol-Blade Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Ahem, I need to gain my composure before I start typing. Practically fell out of my chair laughing. Need to sew that hole I just ripped in my *** from laughing so hard. Okay. WOW. That was funny. That was, beyond funny. That was brilliant. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it before. [B]Orginal. Check. Shameless Ad pugs. Check. (LOTR out now! lol) Ripping on other members. Double check. Comedic value. Limitless. :D[/B] Great animation dude, kudos to you.

Nomad Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Very funny indeed. Stunt doubles are great :laugh: . Only disturbing thing was the amount of nakedness lol. But, meh, funny all around. I think these type of things that you make would look good as a flash, but that's just me. *thumbs up* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 [color=darkslateblue][size=1]Oh my..this one was good. Poor Syk3..then yay for Syk3 ^_^ Yay! DW DIED!! I loved the naked Shin. I was not expecting it to be him, lol. Dancing James was good..naked?! Hahaha! Anyway, I loved HTJSC better. But, all is good. Thank you, DW. And Merry Christmas.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 As always, your animations rock my panda socks. The depictions of the mods are spot on, I just never knew James was such a groovy dancer! Nothing says happy holidays like a great DW animation. Action, adventure, naked-ness, dancing...it has it all! I give your latest work two panda thumbs up!

MissWem Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 [COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=1]Very funny piece of work. James' mode of travelling was really too good. I never knew he could dance so well! Actually to be quite honest, I think Syk3 did look better when he was older than as a baby. Eurgh, I probably would've laughed more, but I partied to much last night and didn't feel much like spilling my guts over it : P I hope you get HJSC up again, I'd like to see what I'm missing. Cheers for this extraoridinarily funny Christmas gift you sexay beast ^_~[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol-Blade Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 [SIZE=-3]Don't know about you, but Sky3's depiction of himself reminded me of the Anti-Christ that the Virgin Porcupine gave birth to, in the latest South Park episode. You know, "A special time, a special place, it's time for Critter Christmas...Hail Satan!" :D[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shy Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 [size=1]Why did I have to die? Oh well, I appreciate the cameo, I guess... Fun stuff, DW. Everything you do is utter nonsense, and that is why you are so beloved. I can't believe we have to wait for next year to see a new animation, hm. -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted December 25, 2004 Author Share Posted December 25, 2004 Shy, you died because you retiring from being a moderator just didn't sound as funny XD And since you did retire for realsies, it just worked. I'm still working towards getting "How the James Stole Christmas" up and I've begun planning for next year's Christmas special. The fun-ness of it all. The lyrics sounded right to me, but when I finally finished everything and posted it, I noticed they weren't. Slight error. Oh well. That took long enough to do and I don't care anymore XD And no pay for you, Shinmaru >:^O [b]TIME FOR NAKED![/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katana Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 [size=1][color=royalblue]How to spend Christmas Eve Evening: 1. Go to OtakuBoards 2. Go to that art board (><;; ) 3. Go to Syk3 the Corroded Reindeer [Special Animation For All OB] 5. Enjoy XD Great animations like usual, DW. My favorite part was probably with all of Syk's stunt doubles getting shot. Gotta love it when people get decapitated, right? Right?[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Faye Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 [color=#9933ff]Frickin' awesome, DW! ^_^ I've never seen HTJSC (sad but true, =( ), but Syk3 the Corroded Reindeer was just too funny! I was laughing so hard I'm surprised my sister didn't come down and tell me to shut up. ;_; I absolutely loved the way James came in. It reminded me of a kung-fu/martial arts movie...which somehow reminded me of Kill Bill...which somehow reminded me of Kill Adam. Isn't that weird, considering I don't even know what Kill Adam is about? o_O Talk about strangeness. Time for Naked was absolutely priceless, and DragonWarrior's appearances always steal the show. ^_~ I loved how you solved his problem by giving him plastic surgery - it's kind of a satire on how focused Americans are on such trivial things as appearance, what with all those plastic surgery shows on TV (extreme makeover and the Swan - which takes average looking women and disfigures them ><). Dr. Phil was also a great character - I can see him saying everything he did. lol. All in all, I thought this was an absolutely wonderful flash, I will be voting for it in the next OtakuAwards. I can't wait for your next masterpiece, whether it's a flash or a story or an RPG! ^_^ (I may actually sign up this time. ^_~) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Gavvy! *huggle* I wuvs you!

Dragon Warrior Posted December 25, 2004 Author Share Posted December 25, 2004 This wasn't a Flash animation. If it was a Flash, it'd be just one animation, smaller, have sound and music, better graphics, and rock more. But I'm still figuring Flash out, so it could possibly be used for next year's Christmas special. I hope it will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 [COLOR=Blue][SIZE=1]"Time for naked!" "Haha... No. Well... Yes." "YAY!" That was teh best. Ever. One of your best works, Gav. I enjoyed it. Too bad I, once again, was no where in sight. Well, maybe I should see that as more of a blessing than a curse... o_O;; EDIT: Crap. >_<[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted December 25, 2004 Author Share Posted December 25, 2004 Usually people who bug me too much about getting in end up with a bad part. Syk3 is just gifted enough to have been chosen for the worst parts anyways. And I promised Lrb a large role this time, so I gave him Syk3's father. We'll see next time for you.

Syk3 Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 XD!!!! Pure sex, Dragon Warrior. I'm tempted to say that this was my favorite animation that you've made. So I will. ..this was my favorite animation that you've made. It was just.. funny. I laughed out loud several times, and that's how I usually judge how good one of your animations is.. or just anything in general. :p You also captured what happened two years ago perfectly.. save the fact that Shinmaru was no where in sight. <_< [quote name='Shinmaru']When am I ever going to get paid for my appearances in these things? :flaming:[/quote]Eh? My check arrived in the mail a couple days ago. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted December 26, 2004 Author Share Posted December 26, 2004 Yeah, I didn't mean to send that money out. I was only humoring you :( Please send it back. Anyways, thank you for putting up with me Syk3. You seem to get the most beat-down in my stories/animations/et cetera. I will make sure you get a good part in my next work (probably "The Cafe At the Edge of the World"). We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 [color=#811C3A]Great stuff, DW-san. Somehow you absolutely nailed my style of movement, without even meeting me in person. o_O; There were so many funny moments in this animation, it was very cool. I think it's definitely your best. I also liked the fact that it was pretty long, but it never got slow or boring or anything. So, thumbs up. Great job. ^_^[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasil Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 DW, I think it's safe to say this is your best animation yet, even simply from a technical standpoint. Even though the content was laugh-worthy, I found myself more continually impressed by the execution. I really like how you managed to "fake" particular pieces of camera-work, especially the aerial zoom-out shot. The Bumble escape sequence is also very well-conceived...I really get the impression that they're actually running to the left. Nice work. Content-wise, you get a B+. Technique-wise, however, I think you get the candy bar...you've earned it. (why do I always find myself quoting Ghostbusters when I reply to your threads?!? lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 [size=1]Yeah, this was most definitely your best effort to date. The way James kept dancing into the screen was awesome, as was teh uber sexy Dragon Warrior and his evil laughter moment. Good times. lol I don't like Mr. Phil, though. He'll never be my super hero. *shakes fist*[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
