cool.

[Super explosive Mario 64]

What the fuck?

Complete waste of time.

I don't have a beef with video submissions, so long as they have creative/original content. Get this shit off of here.

UltramasterBDJ responds:

I remember that in the past, I enjoyed at least two pieces of your work, "Mario Kart Underground" and "MegaMan VS Quickman". Too bad you didn't enjoy mine, but oh well.

But "get this shit off of here"?

Well, excuse me.

I am aware that making a flashmovie is usually more work than making these kind of "hacking movies", as I have spend 6 to 8 months on a flash project myself, and I am aware that you are probably a much better and more experienced flashartist than me as well.

It's too bad you didn't like it, 'k, but I feel very sorry you completely fail to see the creative effort in this. v_v

Descent

Pretty nice. The style was very Kricfalusci. Those faces and sudden burst of animation gave it that feel.

The voice acting also worked very well.

On a whole, it fell short. The race gag was weird and not funny. The ending was ok, but too tame in my opinion.

You're onto something interesting, but you're not there yet.

[Dad's at Work]

w00t

Hahaha. Good stuff man.

It's a notch down from your first one, but great none the less. I think what's missing is the psudeo story the first one had, where the neighbors and police showed up, but the conflict was resolved with a rock concert. Here, dad's just being dad.

Keep it up though. You're good.

[Fat Badger's: Apocalypto]

Well

You had my attention and laughs for a the first half, but it just didn't settle with me completely after the fact. Kinda like drinking. Yeah, kinda like that.

[Jerry]

Fantastic

Very very entertaining and very high quality.

My only critique is that it drags in the middle of the piece, but perhaps that only adds to the whole idea of Jerry's monotony.

Good work.

[Haphazard Episode 1]

Good effort.

First off, I must tip my hat at the fact that you guys at least tried to veer away from the typical tweened look. Unfortunately, your fbf skills are seriously lacking, but I can at least can see your intentions in some of these movements and acting moments.

There's a lot of jitter and ackward staging. Your shot composition sometimes feels wonky. Story is also uninspired. Random characters meet in a random place inexplicably. There needs to be more substance.

For me, most of the humor fell flat, and the only thing I found myself laughing at was the voice of the frog. He sounds like he has a mental handicap, but I don't think that was on purpose. Maybe you should spin it that way though. :D

It's a cut above most of the stuff here, but it's still very very subpar. Keep on practicing, improve your fbf craft, and make something better.

Nice.

Really great music! LOVE the sound. It's reminicent of Greenday (one of my faves). Kudos and keep up the sweet jams.

The video was pretty cool as well. Nothing mind blowing, but interesting regardless. I think you could have taken advantage of the stop motion thing a bit more and come up with some impossible movements or something a bit more creative.

Either way, nice work.

[Cool Court]

. . .

What the shit was that?

You are a genious.

[Madness Consternation]

Nice

Nice one, Krinkles.

Each new release always leaves me feeling a bit different at the end. I really got to appreciate your more creative side with this one. You character design is twisted yet slick. Kinda like HR Geiger. The giant baddie with the spikes was cool, as well as the giant incarnation of Tricky. The protagonist is a new level of cool as well.

It didn't rattle me as much as they usually do, but I like the cliffhanger ending.

Sweet stuff.
