Soft nice leather men's blazer I bought this blazer for my 19 year old grandson. He loved it. I liked the fact the jacket came in sizes like men's suits instead of the normal range of small, medium, large, etc. The leather blazer can be worn with jeans or dress pants. Every man should own a nice leather blazer.

Greatest Films of the 1920s
1920 | 1921 | 1922 | 1923 | 1924 | 1925 | 1926 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929
Title Screen Film Genre(s), Title, Year, (Country), Length, Director, Description
Alibi (1929), 83 or 91 minutes, D: Roland West
An important Best Picture nominee, that blended the German expressionist style of the 1920s with the American gangster melodrama, and was noted for the Art Deco sets of famed production/art designer William Cameron Menzies. It was hailed as the first expressionistic crime film. In the cops vs. crooks story based on the long-running Broadway 1927 play Nightstick, an ex-convict and slick prohibition gangster, Chick Williams (Chester Morris) - after being released from prison, rejoined his mob. He romanced the police chief's rebellious yet naive good-girl daughter Joan Manning (Eleanor Griffith) and married her. Her father was the gruff and determined Police Sgt. Pete Manning (Purnell B. Pratt) who had allegedly framed Chick and put him away. During a warehouse heist, Chick cold-bloodedly killed beat patrol officer O'Brien (DeWitt Jennings), and used his wife's alibi to escape prosecution. During the investigation of the case, Chick also murdered undercover cop Danny McGann (Regis Toomey) posing as a perpetually-drunk Wall Street broker, leading to his lengthy death scene. Both sides of the law were portrayed as corrupt and lacked a moral center. A silent version was released simultaneously with the talkie version.
Applause (1929), 80 minutes, D: Rouben Mamoulian
Rouben Mamoulian's first film did creative and revolutionary things with recorded sound. It was a liberating, innovative breakthrough film at a time of 'static' and stultified film-making with bulky immobile cameras on sound stages. He introduced revolutionary camera techniques (including rhythmically moving and inventive shots, and the use of two cameras at the same time) and experiments with sound (use of overlapping or interlacing soundtracks, sound cues, auditory montages, and background noise). Also it had interesting, unusual, and revolutionary camera angles (from above and below) including a triangulated shot showing two simultaneous actions, the first innovative use of background sound, and it was the first film made with a two-channel or two-track monophonic mix. The film was the story of Kitty Darling (Helen Morgan), a fading and "washed-up," 1920s Broadway and nightclub burlesque singing star. As a boozing, aging, self-sacrificing mother, she attempted to shelter and save her secluded, convent-raised, grown-up 17 year-old daughter April (Joan Peers) from more experienced and manipulative characters. Despondent in the film's heartbreaking ending, Kitty suicidally poisoned herself and slowly died in her dressing room. April vowed to take her mother's place by forcing herself to go out and dance sordid burlesque in front of leering, middle-aged men. She soon realized, however, that her needs were not met with audience applause, so she left the stage to marry a nice young man who had been courting her.
Blackmail (1929, UK), 96 minutes, D: Alfred Hitchcock
This was Hitchcock's first sound film (and the UK's first full-length talking picture) - although it was originally made as a silent picture (and simultaneously as a sound film) - with some vocal dubbing. It featured one of the director's earliest cameo appearances - a custom that would become a regular feature of his films (and the films of many others). Young and flirtatious Alice White (Anny Ondra), the daughter of a tobacco shopkeeper in 1920's London, killed over-zealous admirer Mr. Crewe (Cyril Ritchard) with a large bread knife when he sexually assaulted her in his artist's attic studio. She became guilt-ridden and fearful as her boyfriend Frank Webber (John Longden), an up-and-coming detective at Scotland Yard, pursued the case (and knew she was the assailant after finding her glove at the scene) - while blackmail was threatened by opportunistic wanted criminal Tracy (Donald Calthrop). Alice and Frank schemed to pin the rap on the blackmailer, and the film concluded with a suspenseful, climactic chase sequence after Tracy in the British Museum.
The Broadway Melody (1929), 104 minutes, D: Harry Beaumont
Hollywood released its first original (backstage) musical - it was MGM's first full-length musical feature, advertised as "all-talking, all-singing, all dancing." The musical film genre was born with the coming of sound films. It was the first, widely-distributed sound film and first musical (with an original score) to win an Oscar for Best Picture for 1928-9. This film was used as the model for all future backstage film musicals - a series of Broadway Melody sequels that stretched out to 1940 (the final film starred Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell). With memorable songs including "Give My Regards to Broadway," "You Were Meant For Me," and "Wedding of the Painted Doll" (in two-color Technicolor), beginning a trend for other musicals to include color sequences. The film was the story of two sisters, "Hank" Mahoney and Queenie (Bessie Love and Anita Page) from Midwestern "sticks," a song-and-dance vaudeville team who were searching for stardom on Broadway, and the love triangle that developed with amorous songwriter Eddie Kerns (Charles King).
Un Chien Andalou (1929, Fr.) (aka An Andalusian Dog), 16 minutes, D: Luis Bunuel
This shocking, and provocative surrealistic film (one of the first) of the 1920s avant-garde movement, only about 16 minutes long, was filled with irrational, freely-associated and shocking images without any sense of logical continuity or narrative. It was banned in various countries, mostly for its infamous eyeball razor-slashing scene in the opening. After a title card reading: "Once upon a time," a middle-aged "husband" (Luis Buñuel) sharpened his razor and then held his "wife" (Simone Mareuil) as he slit her eye with the cutting instrument. [Note: a dead calf's eye was cut in the scene.] The sequence was intercut with shots, viewed from the balcony, of the full moon as it was sliced or bisected by clouds. Other shocking elements: the image of ants coming out of a hole in a man's hand, the dismembered hand lying in the street, and a decomposed horse on a grand piano.
The Cocoanuts (1929), 93 minutes, D: Robert Florey & Joseph Santley
Advertised as Paramount's All Talking-Singing Musical Comedy Hit! And it was the feature film debut of the zany Marx Brothers, filmed at the Astoria studios on Long Island. It was based on their 1925 stage hit by George S. Kaufman and scripted by Morrie Ryskind. Groucho plays a Miami, Florida hotel manager/owner, Mr. Hammer, with Chico and Harpo (as themselves) as con men who fleeced guests, and Margaret Dumont as the only paying guest, socialite Mrs. Potter, in the rundown hotel - the target of jewel thieves. The plot hinging on a Florida real-estate development scheme was less significant than the wisecracks and antics of the Marx Brothers, including some classic scenes (the rigged auction scene and the "Why a Duck?" (or viaduct) routine) and Harpo's first horn-honking. Noted as the film with the first overhead camera shot, often repeated as kaleidoscopic patterns in Busby Berkeley's films in the near future.
Coquette (1929), 76 minutes, D: Sam Taylor
Silent star Mary Pickford (Best Actress winner for her first talkie, and the first talkie winner of an Academy Award) revamped her screen persona as a goody-goody - creating a pattern for women's films in the future. Set in the American South, Pickford took the role of Southern belle Norma Besant, a flirtatious college girl, and daughter of wealthy Southern doctor John Besant (John St. Polis). She was romantically involved with hot-tempered Michael Jeffery (Johnny Mack Brown) - compromised according to her father because he was a man beneath her social status. To prove himself, Michael left for six months to earn a living, but returned early. Dr. Besant confronted Michael and shot him to death, witnessed by Norma who faced a difficult choice - tell the truth, or save her father by lying. In the climactic courtroom scene, Dr. Besant implored the judge to ignore his tormented daughter's perjured testimony, confessed his murderous deed, and shot himself to death. The melodramatic film - and Pickford's Academy Award win for her overwrought performance (and strange accent) have been appropriately ridiculed, and shortly after a few more films, she was retired from film-making.
Disraeli (1929), 87/90 minutes, D: Alfred E. Green
An historical, stage-bound and stiff biopic about the British prime minister (of Jewish descent) Benjamin Disraeli (Best Actor winning George Arliss in his talkie film debut) of the 1860s-70s, and leader of the Conservative party of British Tories, who outwitted the Russians in a struggle over the purchase of the Suez Canal from Egypt, and prevented their access to British India. During the time of Victorian England, the politically-shrewd, scheming, skillful and tricky Disraeli led efforts to expand colonial policies and imperialist ventures. The historical film (though fictionalized and not entirely accurate) was previously produced as a silent film earlier in the decade as Disraeli (1921), also starring George Arliss. The Hollywood Revue of 1929 (1929), 118/130 minutes, D: Charles Reisner
Advertised as having 25 of the screen's greatest stars - a chorus of 200 - an amazingly revolutionary motion picture! This cinematic artifact was a box-office hit and Best Picture nominee. The lavish, star-studded musical comedy revue show was hosted by two Master of Ceremonies: Hollywood's Conrad Nagel, and Broadway's 'wise-guy' Jack Benny. They introduced MGM's silent film stars (and some Broadway personalities), performing skits, songs, and dance numbers. Highlights included Cliff Edwards singing the signature tune: "Singin' in the Rain," Joan Crawford in a jazz number, comedy from Laurel and Hardy and Buster Keaton, and others including Bessie Love, Marion Davies, and Marie Dressler. Norma Shearer and John Gilbert performed the balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet," and one fantastic musical production number was "Lon Chaney Will Get You if You Don't Watch Out."
The Love Parade (1929), D: Ernst Lubitsch
Lubitsch's first talkie-sound film (adapted from the little-known Hungarian play The Prince Consort), was the first filmic musical. The witty and bubbly film, a fashionable operetta, exhibited the director's creative adaptation to the requirements of sound film, and was one of the first backstage musicals with musical numbers that were integral to the plot. Smoothly directed, Lubitsch avoided making it stage-bound and over-acted like many of the early talkies. The film featured the delightful pairing of singer Jeanette MacDonald (in her first film, debuting as the frustrated, red-haired Queen Louise of the never-never land of Sylvania) and the film's sole star Maurice Chevalier, a French cabaret performer in his second sound picture (as womanizing military attache Count Alfred Renard and MacDonald's consort/prince). The couple were married although unhappily with his powerless role as spouse. He was persuaded not to divorce, and the couple eventually learned to compromise. This film combined Lubitsch's sophisticated touch, sexual innuendo, songs integrated into the storyline, and such delightful and lilting numbers as "Dream Lover" (sung by MacDonald as she drowsily awakened in a sleekly revealing negligee once more without a man), their duet of the title song "My Love Parade," and Chevalier's entertaining singing of "Anything to Please the Queen." He also sang "Nobody's Using It Now" (about his tribulations after being married and finding himself virtually castrated as the Prince Consort). It received six Academy Award nominations.
The Man With a Movie Camera (1929, Soviet Union) (aka Chelovek S Kinoapparatom, or Человек C Kино-Aппаратом), 68 minutes, D: Dziga Vertov
Soviet writer/director Dziga Vertov's masterpiece was a quintessential experimental, avante-garde film and an excellent example of a "city symphony" documentary. It was regarded as "pure" visual cinema of everyday life without a plot, action, setting or dialogue (or intertitles) - it was literally a day in the life of the Soviet Union (although filmed over a four-year period), shot with the camera slung over the photographer's shoulder. Its views of Moscow, Kiev, Odessa and of Soviet workers and machines contained radical hyper-editing techniques, variable camera speeds, dissolves, special visual effects, wild juxtapositions of images, freeze frames, split-screens, and super-imposed double exposures.
Pandora's Box (1929, Germ.) (aka Die Büchse der Pandora), 97 minutes, D: Georg W. Pabst
G.W. Pabst's classic silent film melodrama, an early erotic and hypnotic work, produced hateful critical reviews for its overt sexuality. Throughout the film, Louise Brooks portrayed a tempting goddess named Lulu. She was an insatiable, free-spirited, 18 year-old cabaret chorus girl and femme fatale with a black bob (pageboy) haircut. She was caught backstage in a wardrobe room scandalously kissing her obsessed and spell-bound patron - a wealthy newspaper owner named Dr. Ludwig Schon (Fritz Kortner) - by his more socially-acceptable fiancee Charlotte Marie Adelaide (Daisy d'Ora). During Dr. Schon's subsequent wedding party, virginally white-dressed (inappropriately), bi-sexual and amoral bride Lulu engaged in an intimate, flirtatious tango with black silken-dressed, chic lesbian aristocrat Countess Anna Geschwitz (Alice Roberts). After the ceremony and party, bridegroom Dr. Schon became enraged with jealousy at Lulu (for her starry-eyed flirtations with his son Alwa (Franz Lederer)) and thrust a gun at her, crying: "Take it! Kill yourself!...so that you don't drive me to murder as well." He was accidentally murdered during a struggle for the gun between them. During the subsequent trial for manslaughter, the hedonistic Lulu (wearing a black veil) was accused by the prosecutor of being like a Pandora's box of evil. She met her destiny during the expressionistic finale on Christmas Eve as London Soho prostitute Lulu became another gleaming-knifed victim of Jack the Ripper (Gustav Diessl) during an erotic embrace and kiss (her hand went limp to indicate her death) - after the knifeblade was stuck into her stomach - off-screen.
The Virginian (1929), 95 minutes, D: Victor Fleming
A western film and adaptation of a pulp novel. The story of the conflict between a Wyoming ranch-hand foreman, the Virginian (Gary Cooper) and a group of outlaws who were changing brands and rustling cattle. Walter Huston played Trampas, the villainous leader of the gang, who met his end in a dusty street shootout/showdown with the Virginian. The film was most memorable for a very early scene at the bar of a saloon. Insulted by Trampas' words: "If I wanna know anything from you, I'll tell ya, you long-legged son of a ---," the Virginian (Gary Cooper) responded by quick-drawing his gun and threatening Trampas with his pistol pressed against his abdomen: "If you wanna call me that, smile." Trampas grinned: "With a gun against my belly, I-I always smile."

AFRICA BUILD is a Coordination Action aiming to support and develop advanced Centres of Excellence in health care, education and research in the African countries, through Information Technologies. This project is supported by the EU's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7-ICT). AFRICA BUILD started 1st August 2011 and will run for a period of 36 months.
This support will come, in the initial phases, from established research centres located at EU countries, including WHO, the leading medical organization at a worldwide level. For later phases, a significant challenge of this CA is to generate virtual communities of African researchers that can continue these initial efforts by creating, developing and exchanging, collaboratively, new knowledge, methods, informatics tools and data. The AFRICA BUILD vision aims to address fundamental problems in health research and education in a low income geographical area like Africa, providing innovative solutions by optimizing and sharing resources through the use of novel technologies.
From a conceptual perspective AFRICA BUILD will provide the scientific, technological and financial support for developing centres of excellence in health education and research in Africa. These activities will foster the capacities and scientific excellence in the African centres and will be the starting point for future collaborative developments that will ensure sustainability once the CA ends. Experiences of the consortium in previous successful projects and initiatives will be used for the exchanges and initiatives proposed in this Coordination Action.

Watergate in American Memory: How We Remember, Forget, and Reconstruct the Past
"It began with a burglary, the objectives of which are to this day unclear, and it led to the unprecedented resignation of a president in disgrace. For years the story dominated the airwaves and the headlines. Yet today a third of all high school students do not know that Watergate occurred after 1950, and many cannot name the president who resigned. How do Americans remember Watergate? Should we remember it? To what extent does our current "memory" of Watergate jibe with the historical record? Most important, who--the media? political elites? the courts?--are responsible for the particular version of those tumultous[sic] events we remember today?" "What Americans remember (and what they have forgotten) about the most traumatic domestic event in our recent history offers startling insights into the nature of collective memory. Michael Schudson, one of this country's most perceptive observers of the media, uses interviews, press accounts of recent political controversies, and poll data to explore how America's collective memory of Watergate has changed over the years, and what this reveals about how we can learn from the past. Schudson argues that Watergate was both a Constitutional crisis triggered by presidential wrongdoing and a scandal in which investigators pursued multiple, and sometimes veiled, objectives. He explores the continuing unsettled relationship between these two faces of Watergate. Liberals who deny that scandals are socially constructed miss part of the story, as do conservatives who deny or minimize the Constitutional crisis. The book gives special attention to several key domains where the memory of Watergate has been contested and transmitted: as a myth inside journalism, as a debate over reform legislation in Congress, as a set of lessons in school textbooks, as a new language for the public at large. Schudson's findings are often surprising. He argues that Richard Nixon has not been rehabilitated in the public mind and that there is good reason to think he never will be. And he shows that the myth spawned by Watergate of an all-powerful press has proved a mixed blessing. Above all, by examining more recent events like the Iran-contra Affair, this important and insightful book documents how the metaphor of Watergate continues to influence the White House, the Congress, and the nation's political life in general. The book thus offers an original argument about how the past survives and is transmitted across generations, even in the face of conscious efforts to rewrite history."

As stated, level 31 is an easter egg. Playing a hacked version, stages 32+ are the same solution as stage 1, and vary only in color. Title is "NO STAGEDESC SET".

I have a Ibook G4 that I love. I had it in the garage the other week while cutting some metal.....I know bad idea. I was using it to control my itunes over airport. Anyway, I ended up breaking the screen, I bought a used Ibook off ebay to replace mine. I had Leopard and other software installed on mine. The one I bought off ebay has Tiger. Can I load EVERYTHING from my old one to the new one...."I don't want to break any laws" I bought my old Ibook with leopard pre-installed,so no cd. I have a brand new 24"Imac with the leopard CD, I know I cant use that. What can I do? |

I would think that you could have just replaced the screen. But since you didn't you could always swap hard drives or clone your old one to the new one. The grey OEM install discs, such as the one that came with your iMac, only work on one machine, and since you say it's "brand new" it's also for a different CPU architecture.

Captain Black is the fictional nemesis of Captain Scarlet and the primary recurring Mysteron intermediary in the 1960s British Supermarionation science-fiction television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons and its 2005 computer-animated remake, Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet. "Captain Black" is a codename; his birth name is not revealed in either series, although tie-in media have given it as Conrad Turner (original series)[1] and Conrad Lefkon (remake series). His transformation from human to Mysteron agent occurs on Mars in the first episodes of both the original and new series, "The Mysterons" and "Instrument of Destruction, Part 1".[2][3][4]
While discussing his approach to writing in a 1986 interview, Captain Scarlet script editor Tony Barwick drew parallels between the premise and characters of Captain Scarlet and those of Thunderbirds – suggesting, for example, that the Spectrum Organisation invited comparisons to International Rescue, and that the character of Black was similar to the main recurring villain of Thunderbirds, the Hood.[5]
Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons[edit]
In 2068, Black is seconded to command the Zero-X spacecraft for a manned mission to Mars, assigned with investigating anomalous radio signals detected by the Spectrum Organisation.[2] Previously, Earth was aware only of the existence of rock snakes on the planet (as seen in the 1966 film Thunderbirds Are Go); consequently, Black is alarmed to discover a fully developed, extraterrestrial city on the Martian plains. When the inhabitants – a collective, artificial intelligence calling itself "the Mysterons" – rotate scanning apparatus towards the Martian Exploration Vehicle (MEV), Black misinterprets the attempt at peaceful first contact as preparations for an attack; believing the Mysterons to be hostile, he orders his subordinates to fire on and destroy the settlement. The Mysterons subsequently use their power of "reversing matter" to reconstruct the city, declare a retributive war against Earth – the first act of which will be the assassination of the World President – and assert mental, telepathic control over Black. After Zero-X returns to Earth, Black disappears, having been transformed into the principal instrument of the Mysterons' campaign of vengeance against Earth for what they judge to have been unwarranted aggression.
Through Black, the Mysterons relay instructions to their reconstructed intermediaries, while compelling him to undertake acts of murder and terrorism through their deep, disembodied voice (in which Black now also speaks). However, even while in the Mysteron's power, Black is not completely devoid of humanity. For example, after becoming a radioactive hotspot in the episode "Manhunt", he captures Symphony Angel while evading Spectrum ground forces and deliberately subjects her to radiation inside an atomic centre, but desists before she is killed and allows her to escape. While Spectrum officers give chase to the SPV that they believe contains Black, but is in fact being driven (badly) by Symphony, Black decontaminates himself and makes his escape. In the episodes "The Mysterons" and "Point 783", he demonstrates the ability to filter out his voice while speaking so only other Mysteron agents can hear him.
According to text features in the comic TV Century 21 and related publications, Black was born Conrad Turner in Manchester, England (although he speaks in a North American accent until his corruption at the start of "The Mysterons") and was orphaned at 7 months as a result of a brief nuclear war. He was raised by distant relatives who provided little emotional support, causing him to be cold and reclusive during his adolescence. At 15, he entered Manchester Technical Academy (a chapter of the Northern University), and graduated with diplomas in Physics, Space Navigation and International Law; he then went into the Northern University and received diplomas in Science and Technology, all this done in three years. He joined the Royal Air Force and served in the British Civil War at the age of 18. After the country was admitted to the World Government, he achieved renown for his work in the World Army and Air Force, and later as a Fireball XL3 pilot in the World Space Patrol. He was Spectrum's first agent, and oversaw the construction of Cloudbase during the 2060s.[6]
In the episode "Treble Cross", an Air Force test pilot unexpectedly survives an assassination attempt by the Mysterons and aids Spectrum in another effort to apprehend Captain Black. However, he is not deceived when the human pilot poses as his own Mysteron duplicate and evades Spectrum for a second time; Captain Blue infer that the Mysterons have equipped him with a "sixth sense" to warn him of danger. If under threat of imminent capture, Black is able to teleport away from danger – an action demonstrated in the episodes "The Heart of New York", "Model Spy" and "Inferno".
The character is seen to wear his Spectrum uniform only in the pilot episode and in the secondary opening sequence for all episodes thereafter (in which he is shown to be standing symbolically in a moonlit graveyard). On all other occasions, he is wearing civilian clothing– typically black trousers, a black zip-up jacket and an orange sweater.
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet[edit]
There are several differences between the original Captain Black and that seen in the remake series. For example, his surname is Lefkon (as shown on his gravestone in the first episode, "Instrument of Destruction, Part 1"). The voice of the new Black is the same as before Mysteronisation, save when the Mysterons assume direct control over his body. Before Mysteronisation, he is portrayed as a sympathetic character, and his destruction of the Mysteron city is given added justification by the fact that equipment on board the MEV explicitly identifies the Mysteron probe as a weapon. By contrast, after his Mysteronisation he is an almost stereotypical villain, taking pleasure in the acts of murder that he commits; in one episode, he leaves Captain Scarlet chained up next to a doomsday device, complete with digital countdown. However, on some occasions (for example, in the episode "Best of Enemies") Scarlet is able to educe Black's original personality, nearly to the point of breaking the Mysterons' conditioning.
In "Dominion", the series finale, Black is knocked unconscious while attempting to destroy a nuclear facility. On recovering, he claims to have been liberated from Mysteron control, and asks Scarlet to return with him to Mars to launch an attack on the Mysteron city. Although the attack is successful, the Mysterons re-assert control over Black. The final image of the series is of Black watching Scarlet's departing spacecraft, then turning about and walking into the distances; two green rings envelop him, and Black vanishes.
According to promotional materials, Conrad Lefkon was born in Brooklyn, New York and was the son of a local crime lord, and joined the army to escape from the "family business". However, in the series he speaks in an English accent.
With reference to the original Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, Morgan Jeffery of the entertainment website Digital Spy refers to Captain Black as being one of the series' "most memorable elements", adding the view that the character's Mysteronised appearance and voice "were absolutely terrifying as a child. His presence, plus the high-level of on-screen violence, made Captain Scarlet a heady cocktail for a young, petrified viewer."[7]
In a 1976 essay, Robert B. Moore criticised Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons for its use of colour symbolism in the contrasting code-naming of Captain Black, a malevolent character, and Colonel White, who is depicted as the benevolent commander-in-chief of Spectrum.[8] Moore cited the series as an example of how "The symbolism of white as positive and black as negative is pervasive in our culture."[8] Daniel O'Brien alludes to the colour-inspired stereotyping, commenting that the characterisation of Black as one of the series's primary villains is "to no one's great surprise".[9] During its BBC2 repeat run in the UK in 1993, the series became a subject of renewed discussion regarding black-and-white dualism.[10][11] Creator Gerry Anderson responded to accusations of political incorrectness and racism by pointing out that the characters of Lieutenant Green, Melody Angel and Harmony Angel are heroic, despite their African and Asian backgrounds.[10] During this time, the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) denied repeated claims by journalists that it had submitted a complaint to the BBC for alleged discriminatory language.[12]
Cy Grant, the actor who provided the voice of Green, suggested that the series' symbolism could be interpreted in Judaeo-Christian as well as in purely spiritual terms, with Captain Black embodying the Devil against Captain Scarlet's Christ, who is descended from God in the form of Colonel White.[13]

i for one...
really like what youve done with the style here. i mean, after all, it IS a remix, people, right? i havent played the game all the way through in a while, but as i recall the music looped on the original piano only "Midna's Lament" on that particular part started to get boring and stale to me. if this were playing instead, however, it would have felt more fitting, to me at least. i do agree with buster-neko on his comment that it would make a great song for the horseback battle with ganon, thats so true haha.
at any rate, keep this up, for sure!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
If only Nintendo had this on SSBB, that would make my day!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I agree with shadow, this is more of a revenge or anger song rather then a sad lament. But it still sounds friggen sweet! I can imagine this at the end of TP when you fight Ganondorf after he crushed Midna's helmet.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Cool, but missed the point.
It totally takes the purpose of the song and does something completely different. IT sounds great, HOWEVER the purpose of Midna's Lament is supposed to evoke a sad mood, with drums going off like that it doesn't do the job.

bye see you soon guys.....
Rated 1.5 / 5 stars
Decent, for what it is.
As a stick movie, it's not the best and it's not the worst. The animation is smooth and there aren't any blaring problems with the movements that I can see. The unrealistic behavior of the blood was something that needs addressing as well as the unflattering use of text (if you're going to have voice acting, put your dialog as subtitles, not floating words). Never express character emotion through emoticons. Ever. Seriously, it makes your flash look amateur. Body language will get the same message across.
Now I have to be honest and address the reason I voted two: story elements, or lack thereof. No story, no plot or premise, no character definition or development, no motives, no antagonist or protagonist, etc. I understand that this is something prevalent throughout the vast majority of the stick genre, but that doesn't make it any less of a problem. Perhaps your average portal-goer may simply enjoy watching two minutes of stick fighting and that's fine, but if you're looking to push your flashes to the next level, this is where you need to go.
My last comment is on the stick genre itself. It is extremely limiting and not only will it be a detriment to the quality of your flash, it will also bind your flash to uniformity, so to speak. It will take out from the animation everything unique and rememberable. There are only a handful of authors who have developed their own discernible stick style and that's the reason. It's a good style to learn the basics of motion with, but it's not something that you want to stick with (no pun intended).
