[Animator vs Animation III]

Nice ending

Nice to see the trilogy finally closes up and ends on a good note with this piece being the final of them. Ironic how the one dark one he created to destroy the other ends up helping him as they both finally get freedom from the computer user. Kind of makes me think of Tron in a weird as well. Lot of good parts too, nice to see it has a time bar at the bottom as well so users can re-watch any part or simply pause the flash without right clicking it.

The animation was great and to be honest there are not a greatly large amount of good stick movies anyways. Nice to see how it takes a twist with the stick figures fighting against the one who made them while they played solitare. Then after cornering the dark one, he offers friendship as they destroy everything on the person's computer.

The sounds and storyline were really nice on this one. Nice to see how you used some of the more modern computer icons here such as Chrome, mincraft, and a few others as well. Kind of funny how that Minewsweeper game was the turning point as well.

Overall, a very well done finale to the Animator versus Animation trilogy.

[Internet Allstars 2011]

Enjoyable

Well that was entertaining to say the least. Pretty cool how you used that flash video of the ponies off youtube/deviantart. Everything else was great, nice beats too.

[Jamrock's Lucky Day (ToR)]

Cool

The funny part is I remember when that thread was made too. I was always wondering when someone would finally do it too. Pretty cool how you took his idea and only did minimal artwork as possible while making a very, very long script code to do what JarRock's thread wanted. Cool though.

The animation was very low quality but this was more or less to show off that it could be done in actionscript if one had time and paitence to accomplish doing so in the first place. Still pretty nice though.

Overall, cool little project, the only possible thing missing is sound effects really.

Thank you! Since I didn't have any items in my library, any sound I put in would have had to be loaded externally, which could have created a delay and would have been pretty lame if the animation eventually ended up trying to call dead links.

[Animation: Blades]

Pretty cool

Reminds me of the days of Xiao Xiao and when people actually made a lot of effort to produce a stick movie that wasn't newbie styled or bad. This was a really short piece though which is kind of sad since I would have loved to see how this would have gone had it been a much longer stick movie actually. It's still pretty cool but should also try more angles next time too I think.

The sound effects were nicely done and connect right when the action happens at all times. The song of choice seems to be pretty good but I think it could have been a slightly different choice to sync up with this short fifteen second piece of work. Not a bad choice but I guess a shorter piece that cuts to the action could have been nice too.

The animation was pretty nice and reminds me of Xiao Xiao anyways with more coloration added to the mix so it won't be as dull. Would have been funny if the one red one that fell and got pinned to the wall or one of the wires instead. I think it could have been interesting like that anyways.

Overall, interesting but really, really short.

Kwing responds:

Thank you! I did put a lot of work into this, so I'm happy someone's noticed.

The song choice was never meant to be in sync since I was loading it externally to cut down on the memory usage. I thought it would be really lame to make most of the memory due to music I put into it.

I'd have loved to make it longer, but my combo ideas were sort of running dry.

[Dem Parodeez - 2]

Could use some work

Well it was kind of funny but it can't really be considered a funny parody unless the user is able to watch, follow, and be able to understand what is going on here. I didn't seem to understand much aside from Dhalsim was jealous of not being chosen so he comes out beats Ryu using his select screen icon which is weird.

Animation seemed to be pretty sad actually. There was Dhalsim who had a sprite at one point and mouths were also moving sometimes but it is largely lacking with people moving and background which kind of makes it a bit bad. Possibly put more effort in and work on it rather than rushing and I am sure it could win a daily spot on the front page.

The voice acting was pretty humorous anyways since it was one guy just making up a completely random story of what happened one day in Street Fight for some reason. Still makes little sense and at some parts they could speak up a little louder too.

Overall, just need some time, paitence, and willingness to make sure that you think its truly funny before submitting. Not too bad though, slightly funny to me.

haha thanks!

funny story, this was on front page

[The Sugar Claws: Iiii-vii]

Creative as usual

Well I find the art style has remained unchanged as has the music. They are both still great though so that is good to know. How long do you spend drawing each frame anyways?

The story seems to have thicken. The innocent rabbit she had killed from before is an endangered species. Quite a plot twist that is. That and she is trying to keep the fact that she killed it a secret for now as well. Wonder what will be happening to her next.

Overall, the plot has thickened.

The time spent on the artwork depends, anywhere between one hour, to four hours per panel.
Back when I was working on "Cooljaw" the drawings would be finished in like 10 minutes LOL.

Thanks for the review!

[Earthbound: Pokey Returns]

Never saw that coming

I figured they really would be having a battle and all but I guess just won by having the spirit to dance and sing over fighting. I guess Ness saved the universe again in a strange way. Really cool Earthbound piece and nice song.

The sprites were done well and for the first time ever we also see Ness open his mouth to say something to a montage of places while the song is playing. Really nice work on giving Ness a mouth though. Also Poo turning into a Duck is also funny.

Overall, nice hilarious tribute.

[Brony Appreciation day]

Could use some work

Was expecting it to be a bit cooler but it's kind of a let down that it turned out the way it did. I think one of the minor mistakes made was having Rainbow Dash in there three times, could have drawn the other two as two other ponies I think. As for Pinkie Pie I expect her to defy gravity anyways since she just naturally does it well. Who was the guy standing there?

The animation was alright I guess. Was expecting it to be a bit longer then leading up that that loop instead and such. The characters looked very quickly drawn which could have been one of the few problems here on this short little loop. The background still looked pretty simple and good though. Would have been cool if Luna, Derpy, and Celestia had been put in the background though.

The song was pretty cool anyways. Nice to see it was a remix of Avast Fluttershy's Ass but also sad that I did not find her anywhere in the back either. Also cool use of the line from Pinkie Pie at the start too.

Overall, I think this could have been a bit longer and a little better presented actually, it's not totally bad but it still needs some minor improvements made to it before it would be a great piece. Nice work though, liked it anyways.

Markanime responds:

I didn't spend so much time for this, only one day, anyway thanks for your review

[PokeMan : Revenge]

Funny

Well I have to say that was funny however in the real world and whatever I doubt it would be able to happen that way unless they were a Pokemon capable of mind controlling the trainer. Have to say though, still quite humorous and funny how the trainer couldn't do well and only traveled with one Pokemon. Guess he would have been smart to travel wit ha spare Pokemon just in case.

The storyline was serious then funny. He spends a few minutes trying to weaken the Flygon only for it to knock out Scizor and then when he tossed the ball it reflected it and caught him instead. I guess I felt sad for Gold though as he was caught by a Magickarp and looked gloomy as he does in the "Lost Silver" creepypasta.

The music used was a nice choice I think since it was quite fitting until it stopped. Sad how we shall never truly know what the inside of a Poke Ball is like ever!! Nice effort also doing a voice for Red's mind.

The animation was nice done and the colors of the characters, atmosphere, fighting animations, and Pokemon were pretty accurate too. I wonder if the Pokemon have their own version of the Pokemon League somewhere. I found this to be still pretty funny though with the thoughts and such.

Overall, very cool and funny Pokemon tribute.
