Seeing a collab like this was a blast from the past. Makes me miss the days of JA2. Everyone did good jobs, and it brightened my day to watch great animators whose work I hadn't seen in a long time.

"Painful"

submission: FF7 -- I Like it Here

date: October 23, 2008

I'll leave the lame jokes in this alone (since people find anything involving ff7 and references to breaking the 4th wall to be HILARIOUS) and focus on the animation.
My god. Rotoscoping (that's tracing something filmed) is pathetic on its own. But you simplified the characters so much that it really defeats the purpose. You couldn't animate characters THAT simplistic on your own? Then for the love of god spare us and uninstall Flash. It was even presented in a horribly muddled fashion. I could hardly tell what was going on. Rotoscoping in itself is a way to AVOID that. You did a bad thing by rotoscoping, and you managed to execute the lazy way of doing things quite poorly. Honestly this is insulting to me as an animator. I would love to believe that this is a parody of people like this (awful animators with cliched reference-based jokes) because its as if you deliberately tried to do everything wrong. Unfortunately people like you really do exist.

Before I say anything, let me just comment on your username... His Majesty Jackson? Wow, that explains your pseudo intellectual demeanor, your retarded avatar, and pretty much your entire review.

"As an animator," you say? I'd hardly call what you have animation.

Let me get something straight, here. Classic frame by frame animation (rotoscoped or not) is not the lazy type of animation. It's...
What was it again? Oh yeah!

It was TWEENS you dumb shit! Exactly what you use in all your animations!

Calling rotoscoping lazy is like saying the entire Disney, classic animation studio (blessed be their memory) is lazy! That's like calling the creators of the Lion King lazy! That doesn't make you stupid. It makes you fucking retarded.

You should have an Encyclopedia Dramatica page all for yourself, complete with goatse pics and fresh prince lyrics.

Or maybe I'm giving you to much credit. Maybe you went out of your way to write that angry review because you're jealous that the only way you can get more than 6 reviews is to make a tweened music video (because everyone on newgrounds LOVES tweens) for a band that happens to be popular at the time.

BTW Greenday is a piece of shit band. Not only do they dare themselves punk when they're clearly alternative, but every single one of their songs sounds EXACTLY the same.

Love,

"good"

submission: There She Is!! step4

This, of course, was really good. You did a great job telling a story. However, there was much less animation than the previous installments. I really hope you put the work necessary into #5 to make the animation as spectacular as all the others. You managed set the bar really high for yourself.

"dear god"

submission: Grand Theft Awesome

date: June 26, 2008

You didn't even capture the style at all. You just made a really bad animation. I'm not really a fan of the awesome series but it looks like you weren't even trying. The jokes were either directly in refrence to (stolen from) metal gear awesome, or "ha ha he got hit in the nuts." At least Egoraptor can animate. And do voices. In fact I've gained a new respect for him after watching this...
In short the 10 year old I know thinks this is the pinnacle of comedic genius. Congratulations.

"well..."

submission: Super Mario Hyadain

date: June 26, 2008

You took something mildly amusing, and put minimal art and animation to it. There was hardly any substance at all, and I have a feeling that most of the people who liked it so much havent seen the real thing, or even know that it exists.
Also I have the feeling that anyone who doesn't like this flash is going to be branded as attacking it for it being so anime.
sigh...

"Nice"

submission: Base 17 ::03::

date: June 21, 2008

The animation was quite good for something on NG. Glad to see that there were hardly any tweens, but for the love of god do some life drawing! It appears you have a firm concept of how to draw from anime, but if you practiced with drawing from life you could improve greatly so your art matches your animation.

Otherwise it was an enjoyable watch. It had a good atmosphere which immediately set the mood of the piece, and was executed very nicely and quietly. The blue haired guys acting left something to be disered, but the blonde girl was one of the better internet voice actors I've heard. This was a solid piece, and only staggered in a few places like art and some audio mixing where it was hard to hear the voices. Keep going, you have great potential and I look forward to your future work.

I literally laughed at the first paragraph; I finish my figure drawing class on Tuesday, and I started the class well after I finished the Flash xD Just found it sort of ironic.

Thank you! Hopefully, I won't let you down!
