What Do You Think About The New Throwing Animation?

The title says it all - what do YOU think about the new throwing animations for the Dagger and Grenades?

In my opinion, it's not a big deal, but it does look like our pirates had a bit too much rum. That is why I want to know what your opinions are about the new animations.
Edit: Yes, I know I forgot a "I haven't seen it yet" option. You don't have to say I did - just say you didn't see it or don't post.

Never saw the grenade one, and I think this is only for guys (when I saw it on Test, my friends didn't notice unless on a male pirate). It looks kinda pointless... but whatever.

I haven't thrown anything yet. So where is the option for "I haven't seen it" or "I really don't care about it"?

Honestly, I forgot the "I haven't seen it yet." option, even though I meant to put one. What POF needs is an "Edit Poll" button.

The new grenade animation makes it nearly impossible for you to "know" where the grenade will land.

Before, the pirate pulled his arm back, and threw it straight. You knew where it was going, but with the new animation, it looks like the guy is trying to throw a curve ball!

All other animations are fine, IMO. How we run with our weapons looks right, because before your weapon could be hitting your pirate, or even go through you. But now that the pirates sort of move their arms away from them when running with weapons, it looks better.

Haven't noticed a dagger change will have to pay attention as far as grenades LOL its like Mac said curve ball - the grenade goes straight from your hand till about half way there and then hits a invisible ramp jumps up and and then arcs down looks pretty funny but I got a contract with the Dodgers for next year

Honestly, they look terrible. If D worked a bit more on them, it would be fine.

Kitty ( a.k.a. BubbaBunnyx ) keeps making fun of me because of how it looks when i throw the grenade.

The new way for throwing dagger is fine with me though.

It is weird, for the two knives that are thrown overhand, it looks like halfway between a sidehand and an overhand throw, I don't like it but I LOVE this update!

They're fine, but what about the female pirate's Bayonet animation? Eliza stabbity-stabs and she don't move. And I normally don't whine.
