"Ouch"

This is what's wrong with the internet today. It's uninspired & furry.

Uninspired: Obviously, it's a Nintendo collab, so yes, the situations and characters are supposed to be borrowed, but I'll be damned if the writing/humor isn't lame. The sheer amount of Egoraptor derivative in this is ridiculous. Yelling every line, quick cuts, & spewing "fuck" doesn't make the funny. Dare I say, leave that to Egoraptor. I'm talking to you, Chris Niosi.

Furry: Wow, this I will never get. And leave it to that vagina-starved nerd, Richie Zirbes, to bring furry onto a whole new level--Pokémon furriness. Really? No, for real man, really? I mean, I have to believe that your fellow Nintendo fanboy associates felt even a little embarrassed about that one.

And then there were moments with Joseph Blanchette animation & voice acting. Enough said.

I will admit that this weren't without some technical prowess aesthetically speaking. Pierre Jackson & David Smith both had some really polished scenes (great animation/acting and staging). Ruocco had some hilarious drawings. But no matter how much you polish badly written shit, it's still shit.

Oh, and that Shigero Miyamoto skit was pretty funny.

There She Is!! final step

"Congrats"

date: December 20, 2008

Congrats on finishing up an original & way above average flash series. Not very many interweb Flashers can say claim this.

I'm glad you ended the series on a high note, though I figured it would. I wasn't a fan of the last iteration, as it felt like unneeded drama for such a cute series to begin with, but apparently most other ppl felt different.

Again, clean graphics, cool music, and enough appeal to feed Uganda. Thumbs up.

Not very funny for me. Some of the drawings were cool looking/funny, but this was way too incoherent to muster up a laugh. It was like a barrage of unrelated punchlines, each one trying harder than the last but feeling weaker.

These Pancakes Are Tiny

"cool"

date: December 9, 2008

Not bad, man. The production values were through the roof on this one. It had a great aesthetic, believable writings/voice acting, and nice pacing. It felt like one of those American graphic novels you see at Barnes & Nobles that's targeted towards young adults.

As nice as it was put together, the story left much to be desired. We find out that yes, the pancakes are tiny, but it doesn't amount to anything. Waitress (whose voice work kind of broke the flow btw) gets offended, and that's it. No interesting turn of events. No resolution. The characters are in the same as when we started.

The reason I'm nit-picking on you is because, like I said, the production values are great. Otherwise I'd just laugh this off, but you have potential. Keep it up.

To all you whiney self righteous Newgrounds bitches, I have this to say:

Knox's Klay World
Numa Numa
DucktaleZ 3

Get off your Flash high horse and enjoy a short animation for what it is. Some of you are so willing to automatically tack on a zero rating for lack of a vector line, but you'll hand out tens like a drunk slut for anything that stars Super Mario.

"Everything by Everyone" should be as literal as that, and as I've already pointed out, there are classic Newgrounds pieces that have either close to zero Flash art involved or rely HEAVILY on 3D software packages.

You're only hurting your own community by alienating artists.

"not bad"

submission: Chris & Harry
date: November 23, 2008

Good effort, man. I can see this took some serious time and energy.

The overall idea was pretty funny, but execution left something to be desired. The animation, being that it appears that you went for fbf, looked a bit stiff and funny. Try loosening up your drawings and just practice making the characters move more fluidely. Some of the drawings just felt akward.

Artwork/animation aside, the Dragon Ball fighting felt very tired, so that portion could have been either cut down or made more original. The ending was funny.

Not bad at all. Keep it up.

Sweet action, man. The animation was slap-your-grandma's-face cool albiet a bit sloppy in some spots (last drawing could have been slicker). It was also a bit reminiscent of Dan Paladin's stuff, which is definitely not a bad thing. Good one!
