Alright man, I'm watching your movie. First complaint is that you're making the intro title things too long. Those are fun definitely, but try and keep it all under 10 seconds. Try to condense your animating, don't have people drag across the screen for ages, speed them up by moving them more between frames (unless you're using the slow walking for dramatic purposes).
Another complaint is don't use midi. I only say this because midi doesn't work well in vista, I have to minimize and reopen 3dmm every time a midi stops playing. Otherwise midi has a cool old school vibe, but these days it's too frustrating and cumbersome for most viewers.
I appreciate the custom scenery, it's obvious you're just starting out with it, but trust me, it really does make a huge difference for the better.
I loled at the way the doors open in scene 11. Lazy tricks like that can be funny sometimes, though I have the feeling that wasn't your intent.
Are you swedish or something? Your voice reminds me of the groctor gruff movies. [I see now that you are, I originally wrote this review in Word]
The grocery store scene was pretty fun. This reminds me a lot of when I was first getting into 3dmm.
Here's another complaint, don't use music from other movies. You may not think it's obvious, but it is. It's fine at this stage, and has always been a common mistake. It's actually kind of cool in a way because then it becomes pretty obvious which movies influenced you the most, and that's nifty imo.
The fight scene was pretty decent, but I'm not a great judge of action animation.
Overall, really good early movie. I'd definitely like to see more stuff from you.
More people should watch this, it's really not bad.
