This was so good I wanted to unscrupulously rip it and post it here, instead you get the trailer. Forget watching this, just go to Yulia The Movie and watch the entire animation.
Everyone has been posting the youtube link all over Facebook which cracks me up because it doesn’t work, of course. Record companies don’t want you to promote their music, you know.
Anyway, I finally had a chance to watch it and I wasn’t really that impressed. In fact I think it just looks like a commercial for Jerry Bruckheimer Productions. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Gorillaz and Bruce Willis but this just wasn’t mind-blowing.
Jerry Bruckheimer Productions-
In all probability, ye know about XKCD, the incredibly sharp, amazingly lo-fi and unutterably geeky cartoon strip.
Well, meet the relative it hates to see arriving at family parties; Cyanide and Happiness is about as lo-fi in production values. However, there are some things that should not be said. C&H says them. With brass knobs on. And rubs yer face in it…
Yes, I would definitely place much of their output in the NSFW category.
Most of the time, it’s a static panel or strip, drawn by one of three regulars. On occasion though, they like to make a foray into animation – still using the stick figures, of course.
Here’s one such offering. It’s a bit short, coming in at just a shade under a minute. Hang on… the credits go on fer long than the feature??
I’m really hoping the blog title is pretty clear by now. If not, click HERE.
This is well put together and informative. So, you’ll probably want to skip over it because it’s not a cat video or some viral that everyone has already seen but you.
Another slick animation from The Animation Workshop in Denmark. I recently posted Out of a Forest, a film from the same school. I love the transition in the beginning, quick & fun.

Vegeterrible’s story of an avocado gone bad reminds me of a Far Side cartoon:
Hey, it’s simple and has cute kids. Definitely entertaining.

I think the story tells itself, but if you must know what the children are saying someone has translated in the comments on the Vimeo page.
