"Ignorant"

submission: Fearmongering Documentary

date: May 25, 2006

Well I would debate with you global warming, but most likely you haven't really looked into the facts and it wouldn't be a debate so much as an argument involving nuh uh's and such. But I'm not here for that.

Graphics: You had a few good things going with the teacher, but overall it needed work on all aspects the ._. face was funny, but it stayed up too long.

Style: If your style is to believe that global warming is fearmongering, you got it.

Sound: It was ok, your voice acting is above par, and the quality of sound overall is pretty dam good, but you could have added more to make it go together.

Violence: no violence, but meh, no complaint on my part.

Interactivity, I think it had a play button

Humor: your humor is ok, not my style considering i'm a democrat, but whatever.

This is an ok submission, if you wanted to prove that fearmongering existed in global warming you could have had actual facts in there instead of saying global warming is going to eat your babies. But hey whatever, it was an ok flash, it deserves a 2.0, you get 2 kudos from me sir.

Score: 8

"Can anyone say Edgar?"

submission: Hanged Man's Elegy

date: April 2, 2006

I love it when kids try to interpret deep flashes, and then call it junk because they don't understand it, that's the problem with today's youth, interpret only what they see. This flash reminded me of edgar allan Poe, he even looked like him somewhat. I could interpret the whole thing if I wanted to, however that should not be involved in a review.

Graphics: You have very good skills in animation, more appropriately you have very good skills in imitating the human emotion, the only reason this score isn't higher is because of the lack of quality of the characters when seen from farther away. Three fingers a long with sketchy moving patterns does not a perfect score make. However the scenes interpreting his inner turmoil were well done with their special effects.

Style: It's been a while since i've seen a good music video... that's serious in any case. This gothic style that seems to question angelic figures a long with the serenity of death, leaves me wanting to see more out of you, it's only not perfect because I feel that at some points you became sloppy and went for the quicker and easier result.

Sound: Very good sound, and it matched with the video very well, though i'm not that big of a fan of hardcore music, I can still appreciate this, the only reason it's not ten, is because i generally do not give perfect scores to music videos, because one music file is easier to create as opposed to multiple. However that, is common sense.

Violence: what can i say? it's not a slasher movie, but there are scenes of mistaken identity rape, a long with the rape of angels, a long with a hanging scene, very morbid and disturbing, thumbs up.

Interactivity: play button and only play button, make a game for those with 56k or something, this would give you more, however it really doesn't affect my overall score that much.

Humor: if this was supposed to be funny, then i don't give you kudos at all, however since i know that it's not. i will give you no points for humor but a thumbs up, because you aren't trying to be.

Overall: overall you did pretty dam good, I hope to see more from you in the future. I give you 4 of my five kudos, that one kudo elluded you only because I want you to work harder on your next one.

Score: 8

"Mister Rogers"

submission: The Ultimate Showdown

date: February 27, 2006

Usually I don't give reviews for music videos, but i'll make an exception just this once.

Graphics: They were good, they are your own style and I understand that, and it was not messy at any point that I could see, only part that was somewhat weird is Robin, *shudder*

Style: I love your style, very Something Awful of you, and I've been a fan for a long time.

Sound: Quite an awesome song, everything went a long great.

Violence: Everybody dies, I like it very much, it's quite impressive actually just how much violence could happen.

Interactivity: A preloader game could have gotten you more points, but hey, you don't need it.

Humor: I only laughed once, and that was at the end, but it was able to give me a smile a lot.

I must say, i'm quite imrpessed, I gave you five kudos, because i'm so happy with this product, thank you for making me like newgrounds again.

Score: 5

"You aren't the brightest bulb"

submission: Pocahontas BURNED

date: October 22, 2005

First and foremost you are an idiot, there is a difference between a documentary and a movie. That's like poking fun at the lion king for having animals talk. How about you point out the fact that Pocahontas died of smallpox which was introduced by the white settlers. However I am off subject.

Graphics, you had a few movie clips and you had a few flash animations... other words it sucks

Style, you pointed out a storys' flaws... which if you think about it you are telling the difference between a piece of history and a movie...

Sound, i hate your voice, no joke, and keep your mouth farther away from the mic, and you need to ununciate

Violence, wasn't violent, unless you count the "BURNED"

Interactivity, none

Humor, you just suck at this, get some actual facts down

Overall, you are just a no talent ass clown, who can't piece together enough facts to make a decent critique, make something intelligent next time so I can stay entertained.

Score: 8

"Ignorant fools huh?"

submission: Bright Eyes

date: August 8, 2005

I think anyone who doesn't truly review this piece are the ignorant ones... Anyhow

Graphics: pretty damn good, I was impressed on more than one occasion by your artistic ability, the shadows were my favorite part... however they could have been better, i understand that when an atomic bomb goes off you can't see a lot other than a bright light, but some buildings falling apart after the explosion would have been awesome.

Style: This is your own style i can only assume, and i can appreciate how you did this, however, the style makes the flash boring after a while, and it loses it's dramatic effect.

Sound: i understand the want to play one song over and over, however you could have at least made a song that could go with the flash if your going to do this... I understand that you went at this your own way, but i would have given it a lot better score if there were more than just music... perhaps voices talking about the terror and destruction?

Violence: two words nuklear f'ing weapons

interactivity: could have done more with this, but i don't usually expect too much from this category when it's not a game.

Humor: ... it didn't have any, i'm happy to say.

Overall: I really did like this, it was unique however it didn't hold my attention long enough and though it was sad, i won't fall for something that tries to make me sad for too long, you need to spice it up with new details... for instance, the shadows... buildings blowing up is fine... but how about you show some people if you want me to truly understand the fear and the drama. oh, i liked the albert quote, i give you 4 kudos, because it's a good piece.

Score: 3

"sorta like a crappy 8 bit"

submission: Final Fantasy Movie -1

date: July 21, 2005

Allright, you could have made the sprites more interactive with their surroundings, like have them fall down every once and a while or something like that... Ok review time.

Graphics: allright even though it was a sprite movie, you still could have done more, the background looked messy, and at times it was just sad how you made the scenes, you have to use more common sense whenever you design something, if the outside gets dark, so do the characters, they do not eminate light. The meteor scene is where i had to stop.

Style: it was too cliche, fighter was dumb blackmage was a badass, the sprites were not done very well though, and at times i was tempted to turn it off.

Sound: finally something you did right, everything in the sound department was good, battle scenes had battle music, outside had good outside music, however the sound with fighter being hit was bad, and the "blow up" sound was over used.

Violence: other than fighter running into things, and characters being replaced by explosions, not a lot to say about it, either have them cut in half, or fade like an actual final fantasy, but being hit by lightning will not make an organism blow up.

Interactivity: you had a continue button every once in a while and a play button twice, so that's better than most things, but i'm not looking for continue buttons, i'm looking for play pause stop rewind fast forward, two play buttons will not get you a better score.

Humor: i didn't even smile, you treated me like i was stupid, you don't need the side notes of "you idiot" or "later that night" i can pick up on it myself, good writers like brian clevinger know that sometimes a line is not needed and that the audience can figure out about it themselves, instead of blackmage talking about his superiority he could have just walked away instead. There's just too many things that went wrong in this category.

Overall: so many spelling errors! The humor was bland and tasteless, for the record it's exp not exe. Everything could have been done so much better than it was here, give the next episode more thought, and more work, and it'll be good, i'll look forward to your next attempt, i give you two kudos, because I feel that you recieve something for actually trying.

Score: 6

"can you say dbz?"

submission: Phenomenal: Episode 01

date: July 4, 2005

Really like any fighting thing, man it annoyed me so bad at atimes...
anyway

Graphics: they were good, they weren't great, the characters at times seemed inflexible and could have been improved drastically, the blood and violence was great, and the effects were allright, but the actual characters could have used some work.

Style: God this is like so many dbz fighting things that I HATE and despise entirely, way too much talking "I'm going to kill you" "no you aren't i'm going to kill you" "not if I kill you first!" "no i will kill you first!" "nuh uh" "uh huh" I mean seriously, do we need that much dialogue?

Sound: well some of those back ground sounds were really good, however they did not add to the mood at all, they were just there... no build up music, no nothing, it was used as more of an addition to not get the movie blammed, next time make the music affect the movie in some time, make some rhythm or something.

Violence: something this flash needed more of! It had blood and gore, but way too much talking and not enough killing, the violence was really well done and all but overall too short for my liking.

Interactivity: Allright can't get you on this too much, maybe a minigame while i wait, but hey i don't expect a lot

Humor: not funny, not supposed to be funny, but it could have been funny with less "i'm cool and your not" in your face attitude crap.

overall: overall it was a nice flick, i mean, it made me sick to my stomach but it wasn't too bad at all, if you work at it a lot more you will have a good flash, try to incorporate these suggestions in your next flash, i'll be looking forward to it. I give you 3 kudos, because i think you tried really hard

Score: 7

"I had to watch it again"

submission: Star Wars:Expendable Sith

date: June 2, 2005

Seeing this has made me greatful, so far it seemed that people had picked up graphics and forgotten comedy all together. But this was great!

Graphics: Not bad, I mean I can't expect too much from one room, the background could have probably been improved more, but really I wasn't concentrating on the background, the characters heads moved, but not their whole bodys like they were talking, but once again, i really didn't pay attention to it.

Sound: The recording quality was excellent, and the sound effects were implimented well, music would have probably ruined it, I think for sound you did a very good job.

Interactivity: I can never expect too much from this category, A play button would have gotten you a better score, a pause button etc would have gotten you alot better one, but really I didn't need them.

Style: The starwars thing was getting around alot, and most of it I didn't really understand (i'm not a star wars dude) but this one was understandable and it pointed out something interesting.

Violence: Other than the cutting off of robotic heads and the electricution of some characters, it rightfully didn't have too much violence. It was well played and The violence was subtle but funny.

Humor: I did chuckle to myself when he talked about how awkward it was, and the elecricution caught a smile from me, and it was good humor, something everyone could understand and enjoy.

Overall: I think this would have been excellent as a side note in an even larger flash production, it was very well done, but overall it was too short and though it usually made up for it with other things, I feel it could have done a lot more if it was a part of a flash rather than if it were just the flash. However I give you 4 kudos, purely because it got a laugh out of me.

Score: 6

"All ya needed was some sound"

submission: Cat and the test tube

date: May 31, 2005

Graphics: Seriously the graphics were pimp, i mean color would have helped it alot, but for the tools that you used, It looked very nice.

Sound: You needed some! If you had some music or sound effects or *gasp* both, you would have had a blue flash.

Interactivity: The play button was ok, and it dissapearing was about as good as you could have done.

Style: this is a very good style, it's clean, but it's not extravagent, it's not bad, but you might need to add a little more action to get a high ranking flash.

Violence: there was an explosion, perhaps if the mouse/dinosaur started chasing the cat or something it would have been better.

Humor: Not very funny, but it's unique, you could have probably done more with this flash

Overall: Overall this was very nice, you could have done more with it, and if you had stayed with it, you probably would have gotten first page, all you needed was a little bit of color, lots of sound, and probably a longer flash and it would have been perfect. Anyway, I gave you 3 kudos because I saw potential.

Score: 6

"Well now"

submission: Kingdumb hearts

date: May 9, 2005

Dude seriously next time enlist someones help to do donalds voice, i couldn't stand it and had to shut it off it bugged me so much, the humor wasn't bad though, and some voices were done well, if you had just gotten someone else to help you with the voices it would have been a 4.0 movie I bet. Anyhow, with all that aside everything else was pretty good, I gave you 4 kudos, awesome job
