bland with a story
It was nice to see an actual plot line used in a sprite movie. I notice only a couple things were actually hand drawn, everything else was images imported into flash, and I don't like to vote high on "easy to get" images. could score higher if it was cleaned up. and always try to optimize the flash. the file size was way to large for a movie of this content and length. you could try cutting and lowering the sample rate of your music and using the 'trace bitmap' option for the images you imported.
keep up the work,
