Empire Strikes Back-Condensed

that is TOTALLY fantastic - wait till I show that to Noah!!!

Neat!

Fantastic! :smiley:

All that and only 216 Kb. Amazing.

I have another really funny LOTR .gif animation but it’s about 1.4 mb

If anyone wants me to email it to them, PM me your address

I’m working on one of these for LOST IN TRANSLATION.

That might be the craziest thing ever.

Horrible!

Wow. That would be too cool for school.

I really like that movie a lot.

Jeez-- as far as I’m concerned that’s an easy one… a blank screen would basically sum up that movie. I’d like to think I’m at least a moderately perceptive individual, but that movie TOTALLY lost me. I started out bored and except for a few funny moments ended up bored.

there is a guy here (section cartoons / star dudes) who makes the whole SW saga in a condensed flash format. (He hasn’t made episodes I & II yet). :slight_smile:

Did you make that yourself Dale? What software did you use? I use Animation Shop. It came with Paintshop Pro. I’d like to find a better one. Sometimes it renders gifs that don’t play correctly.

Oh, I didn’t know you made it, Dale, or I wouldn’t have said “Horrible!”

I meant “Horrible!” in the sense of the violence and gore, not in the quality of the art itself…I have no idea whatsoever what constitues good animation or not.

I think it may be safe to say that most folks do not either… it’s a matter of what appeals to us individually… I suppose. Me? I like older Looney Toons… Duck Dudgers, of the 24th and a half Century!!!

oh, pausha - Marvin is MUCH better!!!

Darn, I was hoping for “My Dinner with Andre” – that way, a movie that seems like it lasts 4 hours, regardless of its actual run length, would be condensed to a watchable length, and eliminate the ennervating sophmoric dialog (which is chiefly responsable for the distortion of time-perception while watching/enduring). Due to relativley uncomplicated staging, the file size might be less than 5k.

That’s funny: When I was posting the above, the first movie to actually pop into my head was “My Dinner with Andre” but I thought it might be a bit to obscure.

See, now, that’s the kind of self-restraint or self-examination I need to employ prior to posting. It would reduce not only the blank stares or pleasant, vacant smiles I receive so frequently during dinner conversation, but probably also my Thread-Kill Rate.*

* [TKR being calculated by the ratio of times you were the last person to post to a topic vs. the non-thread killing posts that didn’t bring the conversation to a screeching (or silent) halt. Thus, TKR becomes an OOM (Observable Obscurity Measure).]

Until your last post there, I think I’m running somewhere between 15-25% TKR. There’s gotta be some way a database wonk could take the C&F database & automatically generate a TKR for placemenet in one’s sig. Might encourage more of the kind of self-reflection I need.

It brings up another measure, Penultimate Post Rate: how often one makes the second-to-last post. What would PPR reveal?
