[Prostitute Mickey]

Very Funy Satire

I must say I enjoyed this satire. Taking an American icon and putting him through the trials of the American economy. Very funny. Your artwork was honestly simplistic and beautiful, like watching an old cartoon. The animation was smooth and clean. The sound was also quite superb from beginning to end. Last but not least the storyline was hilarious!

[No Name Stick 2 ( L.I.P)]

Lacking A Lot

First off your stick figure artwork isn't all that great, you could've done better. As for animation... it isn't much animation if I have to click through multiple scenes, plus with little action in this flash it really isn't much to look at. Also the ending is weird as well and didn't come together completely. Your story was a bit cliched, predictable, and boring. As for sound effects great job, but I think you could've gotten more creative in background music choice. It was just that one background song choice for the whole flash from beginning to what I guess was the end. I suggest you stop by the Audio Portal and see what you can find.

thanks for you review!

[Hay Wars]

Hilarious!

As a Star Wars parody it was quite funny, however I still can't give you artwork or animation points. Your video effects were quite superb and the camera work was perfect. But what made this video was its comedy. It certainly was hilarious. Great job.

Fro responds:

If you liked this then you would love Snow Wars. Sadly that won't be done for several months if ever because the audio gets messed up. :(

Thanks for the review.

[Beneath the Sheets]

Not Bad...

As a video I can't really judge you for artwork or animation, but I can judge you on other things. The video work was done in an awkward way while you were running due to it being dark, it would've been nice if you invested in some night vision. As for the ghost scenes... they were comical, but you could've done more for something with a ghost in comedy.

Fro responds:

The camera was suppose to represent what you would get in real life if you had a situation like this. Night vision would be pretty cool though. :) Perhaps if I had a job I would invest in that.

Future ghost episodes will be funnier/have more story.

[RE4: Don't shoot the fish]

Not Bad At All

Your artwork was a bit mediocre, but still quite good, you didn't really play around with this as much as I expected artwork wise. The animation was great as well, but not a lot there, but what is there is great. The main thing was the storyline which was a parody. Subtle humor is here and you did quite well with this, an excellent storyline indeed. All in all a decent flash.

Gustavos responds:

Alright cool, no bad points. In your scoring system, 7 means great if I remember.

Thanks for the reveiw.

[All for the Love of Troy]

Entertaining...

This certainly was entertaining... it was hard to keep up with because the text bubbles would move by at a fast rate and so it was hard to read it all. However I got kind of enough out of it to know what was going on. As for the storyline, with the text moving fast all I got was a deathmatch between two girls who loved Troy... and that's pretty much it. If you were trying to throw any jokes in here then I can tell you that they were either cheesy or not funny... I'm gonna believe they were supposed to be like that to reflect the actual movie High School Musical, but you could've done a bit better. The artwork was really great, but where you came home with was the animation. Each character moved swiftly and each movement was timed perfectly. The sound was also quite good and for this flash I don't think voices were necessary, but would've been interesting. Overall an entertaining flash movie, I would say parody, but I don't think this is an actual parody seeing as how you didn't pull anything from the movie to make fun of, all we got was a Celebrity Deathmatch episode with some more scenery and back-story.

LordHayden responds:

I respect your opinion on it not being a parody, but I think it is because the real HSM guys would never do things like. In fact, killing somone would give Gabriella (the cookie that she is) a heart attack. The amusement of this lies in how it would be like if it were to happen in the real movie.
Thanks.

Outstanding in Every Way

This is rotoscope, but still artwork and animation at it's finest. You had to trace everything frame by frame and make sure it would all animate well together. If that isn't old fashioned animation work I don't know what is. The sound is magnificent and must have taken a few hours to mold altogether. As for the storyline, it's a music video, nothing more and nothing less than what is presented. Truly a masterful flash animation.
