Author's Response:

PD: You really can criticise it, just because the sound isnt at MP3, just because I dont know WTF happen with MP3, if the movie is long its desync.

Animator vs. Animation

"An impressive movie, but perhaps over-rated?"

date: June 12, 2006

I will admit that this is indeed a very impressive animation! A good parody of actually animating something in flash, but it falls short where the idea of drawing something that comes to life has been down time and time again, only applied to Macromedia Flash 8 instead.

However it creatively uses what Flash provides. (Unfortinatly with unoptimised jpeg images, causing some artifacts.) The keyframe gun is ingenius.

And now a quick breakdown of everything.

Graphics: Basic animation needs, nothing more, very smooth but the bitmaps are unoptimised meaning the interface looks less appropiate.

Style: Very impressive, being that the cursor is thrown about by the stick, but sticks are too easy, to see a human model applied to this could make things so much better.

Sound: Just clicks and such, the lack of music is understandable but SOMETHING could've been worked in through the properties bar or the library, surely!

Violence: Creative use of what tools Flash 8 provides, the lassoo catching the stick, keyframe gun, eraser shield, just very much impressive.

Interactivity: Basic play buttons and scene selection, nothing special as far as I know.

Humor: I'm not laughing so much, but I do find this very much enjoyable for it's creativity and art.

Overall: a good animation indeed, worthy of the daily 1st it acheived but I question the #1 position on Newgrounds as of right now, regardless however this movie still recieves my fifen! It's nothing amazing, though enjoyable.

Additional statements: Everyone hates ebaums world so much right now, I heard it was stolen from other places, I'm hoping you can get it off there, I've heard many famous artists have tried and failed, but there's been attacks on the forum there before that has gotten results, it might happen, who knows.

Anyhow, good on ya!

Flash Comedy Extravaganza

"Another masterpiece from rtil."

date: June 4, 2006

Once again, superb use of animation, great quality frame by frame and tweens used appropiately, unlike LF.

Yes, I'm guilty of using VG characters and sprites in some of my movies, but I'm pretty much done doing that sort of thing long ago because it really is too easy and that's what I started with.

It's rediculous how easy it is for a sprite movie to score well, I like them but they aren't necessarily better than what deserves a 4.00, which mine seem to be. :\

Oh sorry, I'm just ranting a bit there, anyhow, loved when the frogs burst into Mr Green Triangle's home, keep it up, you're far better than LF frog himself, but you don't need to keep pointing it out.

Author's Response:

lol thanks rupee. well i don't have problems with sprite movies if the sprites are made by the author or if it's a parody and the parody is good and that's not all the author does, but really in most cases that is not what is going on, and it gets tiresome.

i am glad you enjoyed the movie rupee.

ExTreme ClOck SoUndboArd

"I have a better soundboard..."

date: June 2, 2006

It's called Speakonia, and it has an unlimited number of soundclips which I can modify freely. >_>;;

Seriously, I hate soundboards, but to make a soundboard out of digitally created voices is, lazy... ANYBODY could do it, and asides from that, the rest wasn't any good either.

For one, the Graphic User Interface is nothing pretty to look at, a bad use of colours, buttons thrown anywhere on the menu.

And another problem is the extras, it consists of JUST 4 pictures from the clockcrew.

Seriously, a pretty bad job, the voices don't even sound like StrawberryClock.

Author's Response:

1'st Paragraph:

Yes, it's called Speakonia (duh). Great. You can modify them freely.

2'nd Paragraph:

Well, it's to bad you hate soundboards. It's not lazy to create a soundboard out of digitally created voices. A lot of wrk goes into making one of these, and (pretty much) obviously you don't understand that. I used Speakonia because then people can have waht they want, when they want. Not anybody could do it, it requires some certain talent. Also, I wanted all fo the sounds in one soundboard, so people wouldn't have to type them out hurriedly; they already have them.

3'rd Paragraph:

The colurs are really just personal opinion. I was going to divide the various sounds into categories, but then I wanted to put more sounds in, and I didn't want to make then widnow to big, so I just didn't. Also, the buttons weren't really thrown anywhere on the menu.

4'th Paragraph:

Yes, I know I should have included more extras; I admit to that (sorry about that, everyone). I just didn't really have the time!

5'th Paragraph:

Considering, a quote written by you, 'I hate soundboards', it's kind of obvious that you are not going to like this soundboard, or any otehr one, fi you are serious that you hate them. I made the voices not sound like Strabweery Clock because there are already some Strawberry Clock soundboards out there. Too bad that you didn't like it.

:: Restaurants ::

"Even in foamys rants you manage to whore Germaine."

submission: :: Restaurants ::
date: May 5, 2006

Okay, there's a mild improvement maybe, no wait, there isn't to be honest. :\

Look buddy, I don't hate you but you seriously are losing a lot of appeal because of what you've been putting in your recent movies, I was considering voting a 2 before I saw what Germaine was reading...

Everytime you use horrible sexual jokes like that the quality of these animations bomb, you have got to stop doing this if you want even a glimpse of the A+ Scores and portal awards you've been getting in the past, the actually get them though you'd have to seriously improve somethings, like the animation in itself, it's always the same trace bitmap backgrounds and shit.

And then the rants in themselves, EXPAND MAN, you've done this tons of times now and it's gotten stale, let me example Homestarrunner, they frequently experiment with their styles of layout and animation, and even with hundreds of their "SBemails" they've managed to make it very successful, they even have their own fan-wiki!

Now the actual animation is difficult to review, it's more or less the same as all the past things so what am I supposed to say? At this point, myself and most of NG's frequent users will be repeating themselves.

If you want to build up any more success, stop doing the same thing over and over again, otherwise only first time viewers will enjoy your flash.

OMG! SMB Mishaps!

"RupeeClock approves!"

submission: OMG! SMB Mishaps!
date: April 17, 2006

Sure, it's not the most original thing ever, Mario Mishaps have been done hundreds of times here, but this is an improvement, it uses the much better Super Mario Allstars sprites.

The flag pole one was one of the best here, the Hammer Bros sketch was nice also because there's always two of them.

Eitherway it's really well animated, looks just like the snes game does. ;)

Babeball Teaser

"Holy crap, Mode 7 in flash?"

submission: Babeball Teaser
date: April 15, 2006

I am severely impressed man, you coded some mode 7 into flash like that? That's amazing!

It's not the babe I care for, but the fact someone did Mode 7 in flash, atonished! I had no idea such things were possible! :D

Author's Response:

Thanks! Flash is very fast and can do many things actually, although sometimes you have to insist until you find the right optimization for what you want to do...

Magus' Problem

"Ew, what was that?"

submission: Magus' Problem
date: April 6, 2006

This is totally out of character, I just can't picture Magus going and doing drugs, it makes no sense whatsoever, furthermore it was poorly animated, the size of the sprites wasn't consistant, nor did they stay in spot properly.

Overall, a pretty bad movie, even by 2001's standards.

: KoShEr Crackers :

"A very mild improvement but still crap."

date: April 6, 2006

You seem to have taken a little change in your usual ways, this time germaine isn't whoring herself out, but still this is a lame joke, slightly clever but how does someone mistake the term cracker for food? It doesn't really make sense.

And once again, same reused art and shit, it's getting annoying, Pillz-e is nothing but foamy's body with different eyes, all your squirrels look too similar.

A few other people have brought up an interesting point about the disclaimer as well, I can take a joke but these jokes simply aren't funny, but they are getting more and more contraversial, if the jokes aren't funny and contraversial, people are gonna HATE it.

I still think you should quit whilst you're ahead, which happened a while ago now, you haven't been ahead in months, no portal awards and tons of 0 overall reviews.
