A Dramatic Reading with kinetic typography of a poorly-written review of parodical Deconstruction Game Super Press Space to Win Action RPG 2009, set to Carl Orff's O Fortuna and voiced by D-Mac-Double. The original review was by someone who hilariously missed the point (or was pretending to). View it here
and here.
Provides examples of:
- Actually Pretty Funny: Double Subverted. Axman13 was initially insulted by the original audio recording of his review, but when the audio was set to Flash, he changed his mind and found it hilarious.
- Comically Missing the Point: The game the reviewer complained about was designed as a deconstruction of RPGs in general. The reviewer took it as a badly-made game, even though it was featured on the front page.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus:
- A review by Axman13 years old.
- GO AHEAD! I don't care! Yes I do. :(
- Q: the athore coments al totol lies! A: what the fuc--
- Large Ham: The narrator makes a point of reading as over-the-top as possible.
- Ominous Latin Chanting: O Fortuna plays in the background for 95% of the flash.
- Rouge Angles of Satin: All over the place in the review, making it sound even more nonsensical when read aloud. Lampshaded on "contrail", where it pauses to show the definition of the word, when it's obviously meant to be the word "control".
- Suddenly Shouting: Done to make the original review even more dramatic by repeating, "Explain to me. EXPLAIN TO ME!"
- Take That!: The entire point of the Flash, directed straight at a review of an earlier Flash.
- The One Thing I Don't Hate About You: After tearing into every other aspect of the game, Axman13 takes a moment at the end to admit that he actually liked the voice acting.
- Visual Pun:
- "This game is crap!" Cue a pair of dice rolling across the screen during the sentence after.
- D-Mac pronounces "ESEY" as "Essy", and then the flash transitions to the next paragraph with a cloud of the letter S.
- "This game is crap!" Cue a pair of dice
- Wanton Cruelty to the Common Comma: The transcript of the original review (visible in the description of the version on Ricepirate's Youtube channel) shows that Axman doesn't bother starting sentences with capital letters.
