Arlo,
kpl didn't express himself properly. Flash plays a significant role in online branding because it allows serious designers to express the brand in more unique way, using motion and animation, while html has limitations. DHTML is the one that in some ways comes close to flash but there are serious issues when considering cross-browser compatibility.
As for why people hate flash, well, I guess it's because of designers out there that avoid getting into usability, using flash motion abilities to create completely useless sites.
Flash is a very very powerful tool. Most people who dislike flash obviously haven't had a chance to understand flash inside and out. There are so many implementations of flash that show its superiority over everything else.
Flash 'developers' use Flash/ColdFusionMX to build extremely user-friendly web sites while Flash 'designers' use it to describe client brand in much more appealing way.I personally enjoy using Flash while building complete web sites, but also use it as a part of html/flash combination.
It's not just motion and shape tweening :)
Wow, I can't believe you read all this.
Cheers :)
