Your question is too vague. What constitutes as "good looking?"

To be honest, most sites have a standard look these days, which you can find on any of the major publisher sites (MSN, Yahoo, Globe and Mail, etc.), which is non-flash animation so that it gets higher score ranking in Google searches.

If you're looking for a rich-heavy flash experience, try some graphic or web design sites. The only thing is most new sites and redesigns are moving away from this design.

the only major reason you wouldn't is because mobile users can't see them. but for a big brand experience it's the only way really. for more functional / clerical shit not so much.

but for drama there isn't really much competition...and again, that site doesn't exactly post sub-par work, so 2010 it is.

Um

There are dozens of reasons not to use Flash for an entire site, hundreds of ways to make engaging functionality without, and worlds of worthwhile work/needs that lie squarely outside of "Big Brand Drama". Flashblock, Click2Flash and their ilk always top the installed plugins for any browser.

I'm trying to remember the last time a full-Flash site aroused anything in me other than yawns (oooh... a masked photograph that fades in and strobes!! Flying Letters!) and thrashes to click the "skip intro" link. Flash video is a different matter, and thank goodness it brought the ubiquity that Quicktime/Real/WMV couldn't.

Apple's reticence to support Flash on the iPhone/Pad is only further stoking the debate about how necessary it is anymore in the face of HTML5.

I know. Horrible.
It's like when marketing companies think that those Rogers ads are going to be so hilarious to 18 - 29 year-olds.

It's truly astounding how trailing-edge Rogers continues to be with their teeth-achingly flat creative. Shaw does much better targeting the same demographics.

In your blog ...
"So what are the key benefits of a HTML5?

* The player loads right away — no more spinning butterfly thingy.
* You can jump anywhere in the video, without having to wait for it to buffer.
* Smoother, less jumpy playback (we hope).
* No more downloading plugins to watch video, viewers would have to download the latest version of their browser.
"
Meanwhile, the video played on the home screen cuts in and out :)

Just sayin...

totally disagree. I think you can build incredibly engaging environments in flash that just aren't doable with other formats. I think you're referencing shit work for the most part. skip intro? yah, that's 2004.

html5 will have it's pros too. I just think what you're talking about isn't a reflection of good work out there today...and more the average shit that makes finding information hard.

every site certainly shouldn't be all flash. in fact almost maybe 5% should be. but that doesn't negate for a second that when its done right it's worlds more immersive than anything else.

well it's not HTML5 - haven't implemented the new payer yet due to the fact that HTML5 can not be utilized by most browsers (yet). For now we're stuck with flash.
