Respect for Flash

Back in June last year, I issued a challenge:

"And I have never seen a Flash movie that was worth waiting for."

Then came Line Rider. Am I alone in thinking that the latest version has lost some of its charm? It's certainly lost some of its challenge. Now I've encountered Animator vs. Animation and its sequel Animator vs.Animation II. AvA is surely to Flash what Luxo Jr. was to rendered graphics in 1986.

These are outstanding Flash movies, well worth seeking out for their own sake. But if I'm looking for information, Flash just gets in the way.
