Abduction 5
YouTube
Low Quality Submitted Version
The long awaited (at least by me) continuation of the Abduction series. Created for BRAWL 2011.

Animation, sets and story were great. Only one thing I have a complaint about:
I WANT A CONCLUSION.

That was a lot better than I had expected. The visuals and animation were top notch as usual. But, there wasn't much of a payoff at the end, which was disappointing. It also seems like you were like "Whatever, this counts as 'hidden' let's do an Abduction 5."
4/5
This was very nice. I loved the CGI ship at the beginning. The score was also very good.
4.8/5.
FINALLY. I've been waiting so long! 
*ahem* Anyways, great visuals, lighting and animation, and I really want to see a sequel now thanks to the ending. 
Heck, even putting a little bit of comedy in a film like this worked well.
Pretty cool. 
The lighting was soooooo amazing. Very nice execution, editing, and voice modulation.
Can't wait for the next one.
Pssh. That was only ONE OF THE BEST ENTRIES YET! 
Abduction videos, they normally leave you saying "meh, it was ok" but this... it was awesome!
I demand a SEQUEL!

Awesome very funny.
Very awesome. You've really raised good cinematography up a bar, so congratulations. Loved it, and it makes me even more interested as to what will happen next. Great series. You're a top notch brickfilmer!
5/5
Great film, amazing animation, superb acting, but I'm growing tired of Abduction, tbh. Just finish the series and make a new, shorter series.
Personally I think he's taking time to finish the series, and not to rush into it. He wants to have a nice ending, that wraps things up nicely. Kudos to him for doing so.
I understand that, but it's...gotten old for me, I guess.
Brilliant as always, loved the CGI too
The animation, sets, and set-up were amazing, but the only problem with these films I see is most of them are just the trio or duo running around on a space ship.The problem with the Abduction series is the episodes have no conclusion, and are so spread out, viewers have no nostalgia for the next one by the time it comes out.
amazing 5/5:)

You've described my thought process perfectly. I guess that's the way it has been with every Abduction movie except the first one, though. I already had most of the story figured out, so I wasn't ready to change it up dramatically to fit the theme better.

I'm sorry you feel this way, but I can totally see where you're coming from. I just think it's fun to have a series I can come back to anytime I want and make the next chapter. I suppose all things need to end, though.
The only thing I didn't like was "Toby"'s voice. It seemed a little bit too edited.
His voice wasn't edited at all, actually. Atom's voice was, but not Tony or Toby.

These films have never had the best endings, I'll admit, but that's because each one isn't really meant to be taken as its own film. I totally get you on the films being too spread out. Every time I make one of these I'm tired of the story, so I want to take a long break. That's why I made Elmore for the last THAC instead of the next Abduction movie.
I WANT A CONCLUSION.
Given the general response I'm getting, I think it will be better to end this sooner rather than later, so hopefully you won't have to wait very long.
Thanks for the responses everyone, I appreciate the feedback.
Nick,
Don't listen to them!
This is a great series, don't stop now!
I really like the continuing story, it is a lot better than a short, random storyline like most movies made for THAC or Brawl. And animation in this is, as always, exceptional. And I really like the plot twist at the end, it makes people really want to see the next in the series. I think the Abduction videos are awesome, and can't wait for the next one.
I wouldn't be too worried about finishing it up, as all of the films have been very entertaining so far. This is another great addition to the series, so good job. Good animation and effects, as always.
Just an idea, but you could release and sell a DVD of the entire Abduction series (when you end it, of course), and it could include storyboard art, behind the scenes, animation tips and tricks, etc. I'm sure this has crossed your mind already, but I just wanted to put it out there.
