I like this one, the joke being PSU was a pale copy of PSO.
Most of the ideas were copy pasted and made you feel like "I've seen that before" but it was never as good as the original.

You might want to modify a couple things though, since it's a joke most people might not understand. For people to understand it's just a re-skin of a previous boss, maybe you could add both versions of the bosses in, looking at each other, perplexed after the Hunter ran off screen.

Then, I would add a voice in the background "Were they even trying?"

I don't know, just brainstorming.
Actually I have to wonder if the main phantasy star series isn't like that as well. Least PSU had voice acting. PSO-2 does too but it's not in English yet, so kind of a moot point right now.

Do you mean put both of the final forms together(because the PSU second form is apparently called it's final form even though it only has two) and have the viewer assume the hunter fell off the edge(due to the obvious lack of space) but not actually show it both times?

I am not sure what you mean, neither what you have in mind, so I'm just going to leave it at that.
Maybe post a preview when you can, I'll watch it and let you know what I think.

Sorry, I'm not an animator. Honestly I'm not sure what you meant either.

I came up with a couple more ideas though, two rhyme-based ones, as well as a easy misheard line joke.

Version 1: Eggman: Get a load of Chris! *tosses Chris at Sonic*

Version 2: Eggman: Get a load of swiss! *tosses a swiss roll at Sonic, followed by Shadow attacking Sonic and devouring the swiss roll.*

Also:

Version 1: Silver: It's no obtuse! *Holds up an acute triangle*

Version 2: Silver: It's no juice! *Holds up juice box above sonic's head while he tries to grab it*

And the last one:

Ulaula: Shoot! Shoot! *A chu-chu looks at her* I said shoot, not chu!

I have an idea for a short. Ristar gets warped into Sonic's universe (Green Hill Zone specifically). He looks around and says "What the *bleep* am I supposed to do?" He picks up a ring monitor, then drops it because of how heavy it is. It lands on his foot, and he opens his mouth to scream. His scream is cut off with the static leading to the next short. What do you think, and what can I do to make it better? Thanks!

Well, I think people are worrying too much about making an "Insert Franchise Here" short than an actual SEGA joke. Try to poke fun at something that would only apply to a specific or general SEGA game. That's where most of the good ideas come from.

mattwo, who would mistake "It's no use!" for "It's no obtuse!"? How about "It's obtuse!"? That's better imo.

Don't you dare call me Sonicgay, OR ELSE...
I make half-decent Stickman animations. You might like them.
Oh, I also like Sonic, Mario, Powerpuff Girls, Sonic, Sonic, SpongeBob, and Sonic. Did I mention Sonic?

Here is a better idea. Vectorman shoots at the SEGA logo, then the letters turn around saying AGES. He starts to age rappidly, 20 years per second. At the end, he is just a bunch of robot parts. Is this original and funny enough to be animated? If so, I would want RJanimation to do it, but I think he left. I don't mind who does it if it gets in, however. Thanks!

I kind of assumed this was trying to find humor in the joke being stretched ridiculously thin, but that it wasn't clever enough to come across that way.

But based on the rest of your puns, I'm kind of thinking it was just a joke being stretched ridiculously thin.

Don't worry -- I've got a plan.

So, I've been playing SEGA superstars tennis for some inspiration, and I think there's a joke to be found within the horrible imbalance in the power of characters you play as. This one contains Sonic by the way, so skip if you do not want.

[A shot is shown of Alex Kidd preparing to serve the ball]

AK: Let's go!

[He serves the ball cross-court to Sonic, who squares it so Alex Kidd has to run to it]

S: Why am I even here?

[AK returns the ball, causing S to zip to the ball as a blur and send it back]

AK: What the?

[AK, being a tiny child, frantically rushes over to hit the ball back, panting. S speeds back to the ball and returns, scoring a point]

AK: Oh come o-!

[scene cuts]

--
Later on, a follow-up scene is shown, ala Silver and The Loop.
--
[It is night. S hits the ball to AK, waiting as the child staggers over to return the shot]

S: You're too slow!

[Close up on a sweating AK, who collapses from fatigue]

AK (head lifting): F*** SEGA.
----

Obviously, it could do with a lot more tweaking, but I think the basic concept of ridiculing the mismatching of SEGA characters in the All-Stars/Superstars games has potential.

Feedback is welcomed and appreciated.

I had an idea but I'm new to animating so anyone can use this. Basically in the game 'Ecco the dolphin', Ecco has to jump over rocks to get to the next part of the level. Well the idea was, Ecco tries to jump over the rock and lands on it, then starts screaming (It will probably be funnier than it sounds).

I already mentioned that I wanted to make a House of The Dead short. Well here's my idea, I'm not that good with texts and such, so I made a storyboard. I hope that's okay with everyone.
Also, I actually planed two scenes, but I'm not quite sure wether I combine them into one short or leave them separated.

Basically, it's a parody of the final scenes from The House of The Dead 2 where James and Gary confront Goldman. Both James and Goldman have irritably bad voices except for Gary who is the only one who speaks with a clear good voice. So, here we go. One more thing, it's read from left to right (it's not a manga)

These are the main characters. Probably need to improve a bit on Goldman ^^'

SCENE 1
This takes place in Goldman's office, moments before the final boss.

Posted Image

SCENE 2
This takes place outside on top of the skyscraper after the final boss.

That is all. Perhaps I need to modify a few things but first I want to know what you guys think =)

Ecco The Dolphin Ideas:

Short 1:

Start out with Ecco the Dolphin swimming and jumping through the ocean majestically as the sky shines a dark orange. This Music is playing, Ecco is serious and determined to save the planet.

Suddenly, as he jumps up, Ecco gets his nose caught in a six-pak soda can ring and struggles to escape, slowly sinking in the process.

Over on a boat, Higher villains from "Yakuza" are seen holding cans of soda and laughing some stereotypical japanese laughs (hohohohoho, uaahahahahaa, etc), smacking eachother with golf clubs and chairs while doing so.

Suddenly an ominous and inhuman voice from the sky speaks out (with subtitles on the bottom saying "The Dolphin is dead! Our invasion is unchallenged!" The vortex queen appears and begins to suck everything out of the sea, including the men on the boat. Surprised and horrified, they begin to scream out as they're sucked away.

Yakuza man 1: NANIIIII?
Yakuza man 2: KUSOOOOO!
Yakuza man 3: HORRY SHIETO!

Short 2:

As a followup to Stasis' seaman short, Ecco tries to talk to an important Orca using sonar, but instead accidentally begins communicating with a Seaman that swims in the way, who horrifies him with his strange knowledge and makes him swim away in terror.

Ecco: *Sonar Directed at Orca, Seaman Swims in front and it hits him instead.*

Seaman: Hello. Are you talking to me?

Ecco: *worriedly looks around and backs away*

Seaman: Did you know that Killer Whales Kill Dolphins?

Ecco: *Nervously looks behind him and sees a killer whale in the distance*

Seaman: In fact, Killer Whales are actually Dolphins! That makes you a cannibal!

Ecco: *Expression indicates he's horrified at the thought. The killer whale is still approaching*

Seaman: How does it feel to be responsible for the murder of your own kind?

Ecco: *The killer whale is close. Ecco dashes away in simultaneous shame and horror*

Seaman: Fine, be that way. I'll find someone else to talk to. Hello the-

*seaman is eaten by the killer whale*

It has been done before in a slightly different way, actually, it was even in Volume 8 of Sonic Short.
