The Most Annoying Flash

"Proof You Can't Like Everything..."

date: March 10, 2005

Sometimes people need to step back like this and remind us all about the crap some of us like. I don't mind Numa Numa Dance or AYB, apart from the sheer publicity they seem to be getting. Also, normally I'm against Hate Flashes, but this one seems to be parodying them quite well and has been animated nicely. Sound was nice and the way it flowed between Dragostei din Tei and Invasion of the Gabber robots was nice.

Worth watching once or twice just to enjoy seeing the subtle references to everything as well.

Shaolin Boy Episode 5

"Okay Housemate."

date: March 10, 2005

In case people reading this haven't clicked on yet, I'm roomies with this psycho. ^_^

Getting much better. Told you the bluescreening of your work from Lightwave to Flash would make it work much better and compress your work down. Still a long way to go before I'll say it's perfect, but it's definately deserving of Daily 5th or better due to sheer ammount of coolness and effort.

Irony of the Elders

"Average"

date: March 6, 2005

The animation quality is quite good, and the first one had real feeling in an old guy walking. Drawing style was nice as well.

There was, really, only one ironic segment in it, and that was the guy walking off a cliff, reading a book whose subject was paying attention. The first was ironic, but not very - it would be better for him to have put the book on a high shelf himself, and then get hit with it.

Overall though it was very... slow. It's hard making an old person move quickly, but the actual pacing and timing was off. Work on that one, or give us some music to listen to and keep a beat to

Author's Response:

alright im cool with that. If i make a second one ill try and make the guy a lil faster. lol. Glad you well liked it a lil ;) and thanks for a construcive criticisim review!

Good and Evil ep.1

"Recycled Jokes, Godawful Sound, Decent Animation"

submission: Good and Evil ep.1
date: March 6, 2005

Urk... Had to stop watching because the sound was trying to kill me. Quality of the sound was low and garbled enough so that I couldn't catch the guy's names...

Most of the jokes there I've seen before as well. I fully anticipated the line dividing gag being done, and the Angel/Devil roommates thing is done to death.

Still. Animation quality and drawing skills were good, and the timing was excellent. Just the sound and the writing to work on methinks

Author's Response:

Other than the dividing of the rooms, im not sure where u get recycled jokes from. bad sound? sorry but for some reason wen its put on flash the sound deteriorates. i dont believe ive ever seen the angel/devil roommates done b4. anyways thanx for the criticism, even though its hurtful, lol.

FBF Collaboration 2

"Short, and not active enough"

date: March 5, 2005

You're under a lot of expectation from me, since I'm one of the people who are addicted to watching Artificial High, which is one of the better frame by frame collaberations on Newgrounds.

There's talent here, but it seemed to stop after the guy jumped off the building. Longer would be better.

Subliminal

"Fived"

submission: Subliminal
date: March 4, 2005

Clever work guys. Quality was a bit off in places from what I expect from you, but the subliminal undertones were an idea and a half... ^_^

Big Bag

"Your insane. Insane damnit."

submission: Big Bag
date: March 3, 2005

I mean seriously... you take time out of your way to do this instead of BB2? You present these cast offs, errors of creativity and random n00b style tweens and expect us to like it?

Damn straight...

Still got a lot of respect for your talents as an animator. Now release your music on a damn CD already.

Artificial High 3

"Already done your reviews on SheezyArt"

submission: Artificial High 3
date: February 28, 2005

So I'll keep it brief. This is a perfect demonstration of all your skills as animators of various types, artforms and methods. It's a great culmination of timing, frame by frame, tweened motion, snapshot storytelling, psychadelic colouring and bizarre thoughts that should make this stand out from all the other "random" pieces that try unsuccessfully what this is.

You did good you four. I'll be looking for more from you all with much higher expectations. Don't disapoint me.

I'm putting this one in my favourite submissions box. Remind me to teach you some basic coding to make your fight scenes even better.

The True Super Mario 4

"Gerkinman Random, Dry Version"

date: February 10, 2005

'kay Gerkinman. Here's my fifteen and a quarter cents.

I know it's a complete spur of the moment thing. You sent me a few of the segments as soon as you finished animating it to prove it. So I can't really criticise the lack of a complete story or the fact that the dialogue is atrocious, because it's what makes the True Super Mario Series what it is.

It's also nice to see the same style graphics you've got down for the Doom Collab. My problem with this lies in the fact that randomness will never be truly attained by anyone, not even you. Spur of the moment random just doesn't come easy to any of us. Have a four and a seven on me, and let's see what you're up to next. :)
