eh

one tiny run cycle of animation...wow...

i agree with DJ on this one, i don't know what people are thinking but this doesn't deserve a 4.18

i really doubt its just me, but the animation was a few background tweens, and it was really short...the theme is overused and getting old....(swf's entering NG) and is not my cup of tea (and i don't even drink tea so that's even worse)...

there was no violence not a game and no humor...the graphics were ok, coulda been smoother in some parts and more detailed in others, the lens flare looked really bad but you get points for trying and the sound is just a song that i've heard way too much in flash movies....

try again

That's alright. I didn't expect this thing to get any higher than a 4.00, and even that was a stretch. I'm grateful for the 4.15. I could've put more fbf in, but I concentrated on the message, as I felt it was the most important aspect.

good job man, one of your best movies yet!

i'm sure you're very proud of it, so am i. :D

i'm the saviour btw, thank me later lol

ZekeySpaceyLizard responds:

:U

nice man, nice.

graphics are low because i dont like sprites

style is low because sprites have been done before

sound is high because the song rules

minimal violence

interactivity (ooooh a play button woohoo!)

humor is sorta high because i love piranha plants

10 overall, just because.

TrueDarkness responds:

Don't forget the replay button. Interactivity++

Thanks =p

OMG!

This is so much better than the last episode! Ugh, I'd write you a review but my throat hurts too much from the insane amount of yelling I did out of enthusiasm. I was just so excited for this episode, good job man!

Starberry responds:

not as epic as your last review;;;;

A beautiful masterpiece.

To start, I will explain my scoring decisions.

The graphics were amazing. I liked all the drawings in both parts. Both were very detailed beyond imagination. The first piece had the better graphics, but a plot was lacking. This is ok though, because of the astounding loop it made back around which could go on for hours and hours without getting boring (even though I only watched it for about one hour). The second part's graphics were also good but not AS good as the first. However, the second had a very indepth plot which required less animation in the people's motions, such as the Broken Saints movies. The second part also had more variety of backgrounds, and character development.

As for the style, both had a unique style I have never seen before. The first part had the happyleetghost in two different styles, the smooth, and the sketchy (seen in the thumbnail). This diverse series of styles was thrilling to watch, especially the traced looking P-Bot near the background. It appeared as it was traced which added a lot more style to the display of characters. In the second part, the style was darker and more serious. It had a unique drawing, framed, on the backwall of the third background or so. I loved the style in this part.

And the sound. The sound is what pulls this entire submission together. In the menu, it makes it exciting to click the play button for each part and draws the viewer into the piece. In the first part, the looping music matches the looping animation. This is also what makes this part a masterpiece. When music and animation sync, it's beautiful and always will be. The second part's music synced very will too. In the battle scene, the music is what brings the battle to life, like in the movie, Troy. In that movie, the music is what makes the battles a moment to remember, and this is what this part does. The epic feel of the mighty characters dueling it out is what most people are urging for as they watch Newgrounds submissions.

So that is what brings us into the violence of this submission. There was not much violence in the first part, but in the second part, the violence makes up for lack of violence in the first part. Whoever created the idea of having violence in one half of the movie to make up for the other half is a genius because I very well see it here. THIS is genius. The violence of a movie brings out the emotions and wonderous ways of real human life and the anger and hatred one feels towards the other. It almost brings you right into the movie and makes the viewer take a side of their own, almost like a game, which makes the viewer interact with the movie.

This leads into the interactivity found in both of these parts. The first puts you into a trance and keeps you watching for a long time, longer than playing an actual game. The buttons to choose the parts are also very unique. I have never seen such buttons for the viewer to press with the click of a mouse to choose which part they would like to see. Most would just play them in succession, but you took it a step further. This is another tool to keep the viewer into the action.

Another element of the direction of this animation was the magnificent humor built into the seriousness of both parts. The first part had satire I have never seen nor heard of, and the jokes in the first part were also very original. In the second part, the lack of animation of the character not only gives it simple graphics, or a unique style, it also brings laughter to the hearts of many who watch this movie, whether they know it or not.

In conclusion, to make my point more clear, this is one of the best submissions on Newgrounds at this moment, and should be respected more than it is by fellow Newgrounds viewers, voters, and reviewers. This dual part movie deserves much more than a 2/5, and therefore should have more than a 2/5. I hope you spend time on another because I really enjoy your work. This is why I give you a 10/10, for the eye-candy graphics, the ear-candy music, and the side-splitting humor.

Sincerely,
Starogre

Good luck!

Starberry responds:

this review totally brightened my not so bright day. i don't know what else to say or do

thanks for supporting

the downfall of overrated flash submissions!

ZekeySpaceyLizard responds:

ogm/

classic.

very nice.

parodies salad fingers perfectly. I liked the thug life carraige haha that's funny...and the jiggly puff part was funneh too...

good job rtil, can't wait for numero tres.

rtil responds:

there is no numero tres, ese.
glad you enjoyed the carriage. i bet you want them spinnaz.

the most useless episode

yet one of the funniest...good job and get on AIM more :P

PiGPEN responds:

Im on aim all the time...i just blocked you :d

ummm

ok...what was the point of that???

none? that's what i thought....

disco sonic rave to the A Teens...that's quite random and stupid...

the sprite animation was ok, but it was the same thing the entire movie...the only thing that is sorta good is the music and its not even yours...make a movie with a purpose...not just repeating dancing movie clips of sonic sprites...

Liquid-Phoenix responds:

What is the point in it??

Yes it is random, just a random Sonic, sprite musical parody, that's what it's supposed to be, just like a lot of other sprite music videos without a concrete meaning. Thus that's why there is no point in it; it's just another sprite music video to entertain those who like this kind of content, and in addition to that it has an underlying purpose, to express my tribute paid to those ancient video games I loved on the SEGA Mega Drive console. As for it being labelled "stupid" by yourself, that's your opinon and I don't mind that.

So with that being said I hope you understand that the purpose of this movie is just to entertain the target audience, which are mainly Sonic sprite fans, and maybe other general Flash viewers browsing the web for some entertainment.

Oh and by the way, I think you should look at some details more closely before you form a conclusion on something about them: the Sonic sprites weren't actually repeating movie clips; they were different sets of animation in every sequence, even though they may have looked similar in certain sequences. Therefore, they took bloody ages to make and required a lot of effort.

very good job everyone!

i didn't see one really crappy part in this collab which made it all flow very nicely...doesn't happen often :P

the presentation was good but some of the backgrounds could have been better. some were just plain white...

the flaw of this collab is that a lot of the parts just showed a random guy singing but didn't show what was happening in the song, not even literally...

but that can't be fixed...so o well...

good job everyone :P

(see wish? it turned out fine without me haha XD)

CatTehBus responds:

lol yea but we could of always used the extra help XD

I make my observations into something you can observe.
