...actually, I don't like the idea. Too much work and pressure on the animators.
(Still not back from my vacation... but I'm having a great time!)

hmm
Perhaps a bit too soon to start a topic like this...

Oh, I wasn't trying to be either of those... but please accept my apologies for seeming that way.  sad
Let me tell it to you straight, without any silliness: the idea is great; personally, I can't think of anything both relevant and amusing that could top what you've thought of. My problem is, I don't think we're capable of taking on a project this big. Yeah, I can animate a little, but quality animations take an enormous time to make, and even then they're less than ten second long. If you had something else in mind, please tell me, I'm completely open to suggestions.  smile
Sorry again for my previous post.

I guess I over reacted abit too. Its just Ive had abunch of people on scratch who have always said my ideas or stupid. Or that my big accomplishments are the easiest thing to get.  sad  I just sometimes get upset and feel like no one cares... But all apologies excepted. I think I was thinking it would kind of be a still animation, where they dont move much, more like open mouth, close mouth, Move hand towards green screen. And kind of simple and the characters arent moving alot.  big_smile

Mostly stuff like about Collabs and also popculture on scratch, and in real life. I think the first one should be about the TMC collab. ANd then something about a popular Scratcher. and then talk about popular bands, like how THe Walruses are tied with frozen coco  big_smile

Okay, so I'm willing to help out with the animations a little bit; art as well, if it's needed. May not be able to help out full-time, as my school's going to be starting soon.  wink

Ya. As I said, Its more of a slow animation with very few pictured compared to a real one.

Re: Scratch Newsroom

Soupoftomato:

Like some of Hunger Games at my house.

I stopped watching halfway through because I disliked it.

Me:
  How. Its such a good movie! THats probably the last I watched, or the Art of getting by 

soupoftomato:
The first hour and a half was an uneventful snooze fest of that weird fashion and some forced-feeling dialogue. If I'm not entertained that far into the movie I give up.

on another thread:
"I didn't like the movie because it takes forever to start. It took an hour and a half before the actual "Hunger Games" began in the movie. Those 1 and a half hours were excruciating waiting in boredom to see if something more interesting would happen, the actual games were a letdown. If I need to wait that long to see the actual main part of the movie and do so in boredom, it's no good."

Me:
Have you read the books?

soupoftotmato:
The first, but that shouldn't matter.

Me:
If youve read the books or not should matter. If you have read the books, youd know that they're very detailed. So the movie should be the same. Plus the complex topic is so original, It takes a while to fully introduce. Im not saying its bad to not like it. We all have oppinions. I just havent heard some one say they havent liked it.

soupoftomato:
It's not really a complex topic. (Nor original, check out Battle Royale sometime, and the fact that one inspiration was a Greek myth)

It's "let's have an evil government that strikes fear into their hearts by throwing kids into a free-for-all." It takes freaking OVER HALF THE MOVIE TO INTRODUCE? And that half isn't even interesting in the least.

But what I liked least about the book (aside from a predictable plot) was that it didn't focus on the dystopia. It could have done so much with Panem but instead focused on the boring fight in the arena.

Me:
sry but you just said that the whole part about panem was boring in the movie. BUt they should of spent more time there?

Now THIS is good XD

RedROcker: I like some Justin Bieber songs :L

LiFaytheGoblin: Ok, I'll say it.
I secretly like Jersey Shore. I don't know why, it's nonsense and just bad and everything...
Oh man. What have I done by saying this. I can see your faces while reading this... It must be a shock for you.

About the Scratch Chatter, we added a new column which should really appeal to the readers.
