"The T-Shirt joke..."

submission: How 2 Succeed on NG pt.2

date: June 28, 2008

automatically gets you a ten. It's a little disappointing how some of the reviewers claim to say they know what you're talking about but still favourite the movies you're ripping on. But hey, it's also disappointing that Awesome Gaiden is scored higher than your Outlaw movie.

As far as animation goes, I feel that if you attempted it, you'd have a lower score. That's how things seem to work around here. For tip #6, that's the general principle the parody artists seem to live by. I personally think parody is a great way to get started with flash, making movies, even music, to learn the basics. However, many "artists" forget to try other things because they can't or they're just too fucking scared.

Great movie!

"Fuck, guy."

submission: Just Another Brawl Parody

date: June 22, 2008

Never before have I seen SUCH a blatant ripoff. It's one thing to imitate the style of another author but you clearly took the exact formula of brawl taunts down to opening, the song, and the segment with two players interacting. The solid snake "I'm too sexy for my box" is also a direct ripoff from brawl taunts. I'm not a fan of brawl parodies in the slightest but this really annoyed me. It's a blue for Christ sake's.

It took you 12 hours to make? That's not something to be proud of. Good flashes can be made quick, yes, but other truly well-made ones take weeks and months at a time. I know you're only 15 and I'm being harsh but just sit down and try to come up with an original idea. A unique way of parodying smash bros that no one else has thought of. Try experimenting. Be ironic in your jokes. Writing "Yay Pink" is going for a cutesy style that obviously buys you points but it's a cheap way of getting your flash rated high. There's no way you can tell me this was just for fun because of the blatant ripoffs. It's stuff like this that's hurting the website and dumbing everyone down and it needs to stop. Now.

Score: 10

"SO CLEVER."

submission: Chuck's New Tux!

date: June 10, 2008

I went along for the ride ! I thought this really was a cartoon for everybody. One for the kids. Happy Chuck's voice, the music - it had me going! The butterfly at the beginning too! SO GREAT.

"Great editing"

submission: Big NG Package

date: May 6, 2008

Definitely think about being a director as I am sure you already are. Only a director's eye would know how he wanted this to look exactly and from the looks of it, I think you got exactly what you were going for. You clearly wanted that "all over the place, excited boy experimenting in his room" a certain way. Either that or you just got lucky in editing. Whatever!

The editing is great and I only take off 1 point because it's a video and this is Newgrounds but that's just a technicality. You've got a good sense of humor and now I want to buy a t-shirt and a TANKMAN. Damn it, Hans!

Score: 8

"I love this show."

submission: Lost Titles

date: April 17, 2008

Great job guys. I guess this really would be the credits if JJ Abrams thought like everyone else. You need to get Damon Lindelof's name in there too though. Wasn't all Mr. Abrams! Anyway, great concept and funny lyrics! Good editing choices too. I liked how you sped up the credits in the end.

Score: 9

"Artwork is breathtaking but the story is lacking."

submission: Alex Seryoua: Episode I

date: March 8, 2008

the drawings are astounding. From the opening shot to the last. I do not agree with the review below me whatsoever except that the character looks like she's from an e-surance commercial but don't take that the wrong way. That's awesome and a very hard style to get right in flash. The animation was seamless and your multiple angles must've demanded redrawing and reanimating over and over.

That being said, I can't help but feel all this talent should be put to better use. Far be it from me to tell a creator what story he should tell but if this flash had the promise of a brilliant plot we would be looking at Newgrounds' next juggernaut. I'm not saying it won't take off or that you shouldn't of set a sci-fi piece around aliens but I really hope you go somewhere with the storyline. It seems that here on newgrounds you either have a great story or great artwork. Anyway, I look forward to the next episode.

Score: 10

"Absolutely Awesome!"

submission: Surface EP 2 (Part 1/ 2)

date: February 20, 2008

I'm going to go watch Part 1 now! This is a very well thought out project here guys. If I'm not mistaken, this is a spinoff? Really great. I'm a XIN fan and I love the quality you bring to flash animations. It's inspiring. The dialogue was superb. The narration was excellent. So Congrats to both writers and voice actors on this one. What you chose to do with the coin was clever as well as the actual animation for the flip was great. I only have good things to say about this piece. I understand how difficult it is to constantly make flashes, especially with this amount of quality. It seems like you know exactly what you're doing though. So once again, great job. keep it up :)

Score: 8

"Yay FOTC!"

submission: Albi, the racist dragon

date: February 13, 2008

Great job. This is a very funny song by flight of the concords and it was just screaming to be animated. A lot of their songs could be animated quite well actually. I like your take on the disfigured boy. Also, I thought your dragon model was nice too. One thing I have to say is that for a good part of the flash, they're not doing much but looking at each other. You could've maybe drawn them from a different angle or something. Else than that, the flash was overall good, funny, and a good idea. Nice job.

Score: 10

"That was really great"

submission: TANKMEN .5

date: January 20, 2008

You have a real knack for interweaving all your plot lines and still keeping the flash really funny. It was cool to see skittles before the tower and his dad who's going to ultimately embarrass him. Also, I love how you keep bringing the guy who was gonna be a dad joke throughout the "tankmen chronicles". The style was very unique too and coupled with the music, it all flowed very nicely. I think this is my favourite of your flashes visually because the tanks on the bridge is very cool. This is also one of the funniest tankmen. Right off the bat, "I got candy". Great job Mr. Utah!

Score: 10

"Awesome!"

submission: The REAL Cloverfield

date: January 17, 2008

Great job. I've seen this trailer a ton too. This was a great idea for a spoof and you pulled it off really well.
