"Needs Some More Work"

submission: sonic playing WOW

date: October 10, 2009

It's obvious that you put a few hours work into this as there is some frame-by-frame present and the movie itself is a few minutes long. I understand it's very difficult to draw in Flash using a mouse, but great art can make or break a movie. If you have the talent and interest to do better, scrape up the money to buy a Wacom tablet.

I was more impressed with the effort put into this than by anything else, your art needs work and your sound effects are decent at best, but it's clear you know your way around Flash and are able to make above average animations. If you're willing to put in the time, that is. I guess that's up to you though!

Score: 10

"Incredible"

submission: Tarboy

date: August 23, 2009

It's very uncommon for me to find a movie worth voting higher than 2 on just by picking random movies out of the Portal, it's even more uncommon that I vote 5 on said movie, and extremely rare that I favorite it.

This movie has all 3 of those conditions, easily. Truly impeccable animation (with some very impressive effects) as well as a brilliant original score make this one truly special. The completely original premise is whimsical and magical, as well as entertaining.

5/5
10/10

Score: 4

"Needs Tons of Work!"

submission: Tanks & Coins

date: August 19, 2009

This game needs a lot of work, as the title of my review says. The controls are very bad and the arrow keys cause the tank to slide around the map rather than turning it and moving it backwards or forwards.

I don't understand why the point counter goes to the 10th decimal place, there's really no need for that. You could use a better art style as well, the blue instructional text is very difficult to read on the green background.

I'm just telling it like I see it.

Score: 4

"Huge Halo Fan Here"

submission: Ultimate Halo Quiz Part 1

date: August 4, 2009

You got quite a few things wrong...speaking as a total Halo nerd. :D

The human version of the tank is called the Scorpion. Miranda Keyes is spelled with an "i", not an "e". The Chief doesn't wake up in a cryo tube at the beginning of Halo 2, that's at the beginning of Halo: Combat Evolved. 343 Guilty Spark is only one of the two monitors we meet in the Halo trilogy, the other being 2401 Penitent Tangent. Also, I wouldn't technically call the ending of Halo 3 a success for the Master Chief, as he is left drifting in space while he waits for rescue.

God I am such a fucking nerd. One other tip: Learn to make proper buttons, there are dozens of free tutorials online and this is one of the first things I notice when viewing Flash movies.

In short: This is a good idea, but it needs a lot of work to be truly great.

Score: 10

"Laugh Out Loud Funny"

submission: Stupid Apocalypse

date: July 31, 2009

This movie was fucking hilarious, I can't believe I've never seen anything else by you before. The animation was good, the voice acting was good enough to be funny. This movie reminded me of JohnnyUtah's style of humor, which is definitely a good thing. Seriously hilarious, keep up the good work.

Score: 9

"Not Your Usual Style"

submission: The Transformer

date: July 26, 2009

This wasn't your usual style at all, and I really enjoyed that. I have to admit I was pretty surprised to see an E rated JohnnyUtah movie, but it was excellent. You have serious skills at animating, and a knack for consistently cranking out entertaining original content.

Keep up the good work!

Score: 4

"Sizing is All Wrong"

submission: madness breakdownn

date: July 9, 2009

The animation wasn't bad but the framing of it was. Was that thing at the beginning supposed to be a camera? I guess I didn't really get it. Also, Madness has been done a zillion times already. Try doing something original, use your own ideas next time! You're not a bad animator so I'd like to see what you could do with something that you made up.

Score: 8

"Excellent"

submission: Sing, Kitty, Swing!

date: July 8, 2009

It's very rare that I find a movie that instantly gets a 5/5 from me, especially if I'm just browsing the new submissions. This was an exception. The animation was very good, especially for someone just starting to use Flash. I can tell you put a lot of effort into it.

My only complaint is the lack of sound effects. Maybe the song alone wasn't enough? I'm not sure, sound effects might have ruined it but I think they would have been nice to have. Anyways, well done, keep up the good work.

Score: 6

"Not Bad for a First Try"

submission: Of Angels and Men: Intro

date: May 13, 2009

Normally I dislike when authors beg people not to blam their work. Just get better at it! But in this case, you've clearly put a good amount of effort in and it sounds like you have bigger plans in mind. It will be fun to see what you come up with!

Score: 10

"Awesome!"

submission: Skeleton Jack

date: May 9, 2009

I am now ashamed to admit I haven't seen your work on NG before. This Flash was incredible, from start to finish. It reminded me of Genndy Tartakovsky's work with Samurai Jack, and I hope you take that as a compliment because I loved that show to death.

The music was well chosen, MGS has some of the best videogame music around, aside from Halo.

Anyways, well done, keep up the good work and I hope to see more from you in the future.
