i was introduced to 8-bit via the flash version, and i realized that its INCREDIBLY behind the comic. did the flash artist stop making them, or what?

Well, the creation of the Flash series is currently in hiatus, I think. And beside that a Flash as good as they is often difficult to make, so that it consumes a lot of time to be created.

They are working on it. I remember them saying that they were aiming for August through November this year. Remember, it takes hours to make about 30 seconds of video.

The whole point of the animated movies is because its fun to see the comics brought to life, and voiced. However, it isn't like making one of those things is easy. In the time it takes to produce just one of those movies, I think Brian could at least produce 12 comics (if not a whole slew more).

The idea that the movies need to be keeping up with the comics is just plain silly. It isn't going to happen, so just deal with it. And the simple fact is, its more than likely that not every single comic will get animated. I'd just be happy if the animated movies got to the point of Garland's defeat & called it quits there.

I still thinks that woudl be great fun and maybe easier to work if instead of following the Storyline the Flash videos were made about the major/best parts of the whole comic.. after all... its just not going to be made 100% of it anyways... at least woudl be lots of fun to see certain parts of it... specially the Fiends and after the Class change

Either way, the begging is harder as brian use a LOT more of text than on later comics... thats a real problem for the Lash version

I'd especially like to see a re-make of BB's death. In comic, it was entirely too rushed & mostly off camera. I'd like to see BB at least put up a fight. I'd also like to see a montage where ghost BB travels around to the theme of 'How far is it to heaven?' afterwards.

From this (http://forum.nuklearpower.com/showthread.php?t=12682&page=8) old thread:Don't worry all you crazy fans who want to see the series continue. We have had several offers... I mean a few offers... ok ONE offer to contuine the series and if said person decieds to take up the raines I have already told them I am behind them one hundred percent. I feel it is to early to name names until we have a confirmation on this but even if he/she/it backs out I am sure another will step up to take on the task.

The series is not dead or passed on, it is just hibernating.

EDIT:They are working on it. I remember them saying that they were aiming for August through November this year.
Wait, when did they say that? D:

I love these threads, because I'm qualified to post in them.

Stuff's happening, sort of. We're making big changes, but we're getting used to a new animator, and working around school and jobs.

p.s. If I have anything to say about it, I'm going to make dead sure that we animate every comic, because...I want to.

Deathtrooper, no spam.

And Starky, think you could just put up something in the sig saying that yes, there WILL be an 8-Bit theatre 6, it'll just take a while.

Or better yet, someone get a newspost on the front page.

Speaking of which...notice that there's no Yuri-threads.......


Anyway, which streach of comics did you plan on doing for 6?

Thats because Princess Sarah and WM didnt meet yet... as far as my Goldfish-like memory allows me to remenber...

And Still... To calm the fanboys down... just release a trailer, and in six months the episode XD

Well, we left off at 8-bit survivor....I imagine that's what we'll be covering...maybe. :D

There is reason to believe they might skip 8bit survivor, since BM fast fowards through it at the end of part 5 (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/285899). But still Only TLF knows for sure.

in other news, TLF stopped helping after episode 4. His contribution to episode 5 was leftovers from episode 4 that didn't make it.

I second the best idea ever. black belt was my favorite character, and as awesome as his reflective strip was, it did feel kinda rushed. seeing more put into that would be very cool.

It'd be cool to see the animated strips focus on a 'best of' approach - focus on the episodes where it would really bring things to life, sort of a deal. Like, you could probably do a great job of the Orgy of Violence, or that meteor obliterating Dwarfland, or the environmental devestation caused by Mountain Dew. Hell, even just that one of the blue chocobos running across the ocean could be great.

or we could just do the whole thing.

that would be impossible. I have contemplated myself on how to do it and it just seems to hard to do. Maybe if it were to be done up to the rescue of Sara and destruction of Pontera.

besides, just to know I would love to do a voice.

I Still suggest that the Flash team makes a Non-Spoiler Trailer for 8BT...
So many fun scenes can be string together...

BB splitting reality by going down a hall
Medoken
Lich killing BM
Boatdoken
BM coming back from hell
The LW with dresses
Dwarfland on fire
BB going against Kerry
The Birthy of Sword-chucks
and so on and on until a closing of the 4 LW running over the ocean with blue chocobos

What? I Would do it if a had capacity of such u.u

Oh, it'd only be about 100+ episodes, providing they keep to the eight-comics-per-release approach.

SHH! Nearly every time these 8-Bit Theater Flash threads come up, it goes on a slight "I'd love to voice in this" tangent! You don't want to bring that upon the thread, do you? |:<

Sorry. Still a newb :sweatdrop

We could do a best of series such as

The Best of Fighters Battles
The best of BM's Murderous rampages (done to the tune of the Six Flags commercial)
The Best of Red Mages Munchkining/Stat Changing

Also for x-mas, everyone makes a spritesheet of themselves, and record some lines, so we can make the official NPF Flash Message Video

Random Ideas... GO!!

Not forgeting a best of Thiefs trickery
OR
A Best or Sarda, "The Wizard Who Did It"
OR
The Best of BM and WM...

You know what this could go on forever :gonk:

As in the presedential hopeful Kerry? Or the fiend? Seeing as it's 4 AM here and my mind's in an eight-hour-off schedule, I was puzzling that over for a while.
Okay, so... yeah, the fiend Kary/Marilith/whatever.
How 'bout something like... hey, we haven't seen any animated stabbing yet. Maybe, say, 644 -- Processing?
Or what about RM's Hadoyastopthis?
Or BM stabbing an iceberg to the point of explosion?
Hell, how 'bout seeing the guys class-change?
