[TmsT's Zero Wing Rhapsody]

AIR GUITAR! HEAD-BANGING!

This was really great! I laughed out loud, doesn't happen that often! A little critique though; the music was um too midi-ish. Might be hard to find better one's though, or did you perhaps do it yourself? The singing was also kind of off at times, wasn't it? And perhaps my biggest issue, well... I DO like it, but I can't stop thinking it's a few years (!) late. still, keep the good work up. (oh and I voted for you in the 250$ cash thingie).

TmsT responds:

Yes, I did have an instrumental track of BR, but I decided to go with MIDI instead, because it was more "Sega"-sounding - I wanted to go with the original style of the Zero Wing animation. Heh heh. It's hard enough singing the original Queen lyrics, but when I'm asking performers to sing these nonsensical broken-English phrases that they're unfamiliar with... I think they did a good job, considering that. Nobody's perfect...
(Thanks! Even though it probably won't win, your vote still means a lot to me!)

[Hyperboy: Episode 2]

they're too great!

it's not often you stumble across a 15-year old with this kind of incredible talent! and now that I've read the entire comic as well, man it's even better-looking than this (although I prefer the cartoon as a medium)..! you should get one of those WACOM drawing tablets, that would be crazy. Well anyways let me know when you decide what you think about that proposition I mailed you earlier. until then, keep rocking

gene-goldstein responds:

I have one....that's how I draw the characters.

[Hyperboy: Episode 3]

woah this rocked

this was damn cool! I'm gonna go through your other submissions later today and send you a mail with a flash proposition...

[Artificial High 3]

not bad at all

usually I hate all NG-collaborations because it's usually just a bunch of movies with the same irritating song over and over again, or with some other minimal connection bundled together to get a higher score. this time, it works allright for some reason. but you would have done better without Nanoko's parts, they didn't fit in... and Sqeezy's character design and animation could really need some improvement. but nonetheless, this was actually funny and the different segments just WORKED for once, for some reason.

[-Play-]

I really liked it

I really appreciate the effort that went into this, but I also really like it for what it is. very artsy and simple, could easily be aired on TV. it does get a little repetitous though and I lost concentration halfway through and started surfing in the main window... and I guess that's why I gave you a 9 instead of a 10. still, it's really cool.

[My GOD, Robots! pilot]

I wanted to like it

But I couldn't understand anything of what was being said. Seriously, get that fixed. Pretty cool graphics.

[BM's: Road]

not that bad

ended a bit abruptly though, the sound that is

BritishMoose responds:

Heh, yeah, but it was there for the importnt parts so i don't mind. Anyways, it was circusninjas fault...not mine =P
Thanks for the review =D

[Necromancer | Subtitles]

idiot

you just submitted the same movie twice..! you could just have replaced the first one with this file instead. this is SO unnecessary.

[Knock Knock]

I hated it... yet I loved it

the only thing I really wanna say is a comment on the previous reviewer. MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY SAID THAT!!

"sounds like something my brother would say"... yeah well if that's the kind of relationship you've got with your brother... uh-huh...

well watch the movie kids... IT'S DISCUST-A-TASTIC

[Mr Shibby"Shaolin Soccer"]

it's not a parody

it's a pretty good flash, somewhat sloppy character design and animation but great direction. however, it's NOT a parody, more like a pastiche or possibly a tribute. come to think of it, it's probably not possible to make a parody of "Shaolin Soccer" even if you tried, I mean, how could you possibly ridicule such a consciously ridiculous movie? really love that flick...
