NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Delia99 This short film tells us the story of 9, a ragdoll-ish, stitchpunk- ish... thing, 9, who leaves in an aftertheend-ish, apocalyptic-ish world... and is all alone because all of his friends have died. On his own, he sets on a quest to murder the beast who slayed them - and even though he gets the soul-draining talisman, they still DON'T get revived. Kind of justified, the cat beast rips their bodies off. Like, he has a cloak made of their skins, which actually is pretty terrifying. No dialogue in this one. After all, most of the time, 9 is all alone and has no one to speak to. Speaking to himself isn't an option, this short isn't about psychopathy. Though we get a glimpse of original!5, who would get split up in 2 and 5 in the feature film.Although this short is in a way, sadder than the film (in here, all of them but 9 are posthumous characters, and in the end, 9 is left alone, whereas in the film, he has company), but for some reason the ending seemed to be... lighter. Perhaps because in the movie, he had actually met all the deceased stitchpunks, and had grown to care for them, when here, he only knew 5 (for like, one minute) and there's no indication he knew any of the other stitchpunks. Still, an entertaining short film I enjoyed.
WakenPayne Wow This Is Simply Stunning. The Visuals Are Great. Its On Youtube If Anyone Is Interested But It's Also With The 9 DVD That Came Out In 2009 Wow Shane Acker Is A Visionary Like Joss Whedon. This Is Simply The Best Short Film Ever But What Follows Is 'Bambi Meets Godzilla' This Is Stunning. This Was Also Made Into A Feature Length Movie Starring Elijah Wood, Christopher Plummer, John C. Riley & Jennifer Connelly. The Acting Is...There Is None. The Animation Is Great. Yes It Is A Little Bizarre But What Do You Expect From A Visionary.I Think Both 9 Films Are Great But The 2009 One's Better But This Is Great Little Movie Just Think This Movie Is Also My Rating For It Also.
general_jihad This is an excellent short animation. The story is well written and directed. The animation sequences remind me of the first oddworld video game. Not that they have similar stories really, or characters, but the overall look and feel somehow remind me of the world painted in that game. The use of silent characters brings a weight to the action and tension happening on screen. The creature is a mixture of junk found within this world, but seems to hunt with a definite purpose. The ending shows us that purpose, and a quick glimpse into what it might be like to live in this tiny world.Very cool short.
Polaris_DiB This is a really fun animation, mostly because it's just so simple of a story very detailed in animation and visually exciting. I mean, for all the complicated methods of the computer animation with great lighting effects and detailed skins and movements of the characters and their effects on the environments, it's a very easy man-vs-monster story that can appeal to everyone.A ragdoll named 9, or marked 9, or the ninth ragdoll or something to that effect is tragically left alone after its partner 4 sacrifices itself to a monster that steals its soul. 9 devises a way to defeat the monster so that it will no longer torment it, and in the process discovers a way to provide closure to the souls' entrapment (the souls of 1 through 8). This is presented through actiony fantasy pretty much existing as never-before-seen.It's very enjoyable and visually amazing. The monster seems almost perfect for the environment they come from, and the characters are very well emotionally presented considering their darned faces. The plot contains no real desire to be stretched into feature length or accepted as important, just presents six minutes of about as much fun as six minutes can give.--PolarisDiB
