Boy, the artwork in this animated short is nothing short of fantastic. It was brilliant and made this "cartoon" fun to watch despite the sour message. The story is simply showing some huge military guy pushing a man to his death and then some real sicko getting excited seeing a dead body on the ground. It's sick stuff, sadly typical of almost all the material on this "Animation Show Volume 2" DVD. Gosh, what happened to the light and funny stuff?
Meanwhile, any movie - short or feature length - that is blatantly anti-military, is pretty sure of getting an Academy Award nominee. Such is the Liberalness of the Academy, so it is no surprise that a short like this depicting military officers as deranged is going to be liked on the Left Coast (Hollywood).
Having said that, though, I have to admit I was so captured by the visuals that I didn't really care about the morbid "story." The ultra-fat slob who was dancing to shots of the dead man actually was entertaining, thanks to the music. Still, one wonders why kind of demented brain produces material like this?
