1000 Cell Phones Play Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture"

It seemed a little... Bad.
Now, I know its on Cell-Phones, but they could have made it sound, I dunno. Not retarded.

And thus the criticisms come forth immediately.
Never mind that this is original, something that actually relates to the subject material (read: an advert for phones with phones in it instead of some other nonsense) and is incredibly ambitious.
No; the thread becomes full of comments such as "I wouldn't recognise it if I wasn't told". Expecting mobile phone messaging tones to bear a completely perfect interpretation to a fully orchestric piece.
More and more I lose faith in so much, and so many people wonder why industries are unwilling to take risks in any medium, why they cater to proven entities that came before.
Because YOU exist, the idiots of the world. The idiots of the world that immediately dog something without thinking of the layers behind it.

Cute, but i was ultimately expecting a bit more. Bobcat, the criticism here largely stems from Funk claiming it was mind-blowingly incredibly amazingly impressive. If i had just seen it on TV on its own, i would have been rather impressed. As it was, listening to it was really just waiting for the other shoe to drop for me.
But again, cute and interesting, though ultimately just a passing trifle.

I would have to agree there. Being a rabid Tchaikovsky fan and learning HSC music, I shed a tear at how much they butchered one of his most epic songs.Lord_Panzer said:
Regardless, it was quite impressive.
