[If I Only Had a Brain]

lazy ass

This movie is currently BLAMMED!!! Don't submit your unfinished movies to NG, k? We don't care if it's good or if it sucks, but if it's not finised, It's not going to survive. So get your lazy ass on it!

TheBurnKing responds:

hey miss cleo, excellent work. With predictions that accurate im surprised you even voted, since you knew it would be blammed and all. Maybe you can tell me this, when's the next time your mommy's going to give you a time out for throwing a tantrum? well, its most likely next tuesday when i tell her about your whining during the all night S&M session.

[Target Man]

Ok . . . explanation

I'm sorry, kid, I had to blam this one. Let me explain why:

Flash Elements: Parts of it look like you did it all in one layer, which doesn't EVER look good. The audio of the narration was really quiet while the audio of the screaming and such was REALLY LOUD! I know its kind of hard to control that with the audio controls in MX, but you're going to have to fix that sooner or later. The graphics were lacking . . . at best . . . Sometimes you used the circles/rectangles tools and sometimes you hand drew the stuff. I realized, while doing my second flash, that you can't have a combination of computer generated and hand drawn things. You should pick one style or the other is going to stick out like a sore thumb.

Film elements:
I don't care about these charecters when they are children! I want to know about what they did when they grew up! I want some real story! What happened to Target Man after the other kid stuck him with the dart!?! Did he bleed? Did his mom come out and slap the other kid? WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?! In the beginning, it never really explained how he got these powers. Was there some space radiation? Did that meteor thing have weird extraterrestrial chemical compounds in it that affected the Earth's pull of gravity on him? Or did he have these powers from birth? (What's a baby doing on a space ship anyway?)

In general, I think that you could rework this and resubmit when you get a lot more practice with this flash stuff.

Hank-F responds:

That's one thing I forgot to mention in my movie. The meteor had "extraterrestrial chemical compounds" that did it. Some of the other stuff is supposed to remain unanswered, though and will be answer in the cartoons following. I'll take your advice on the drawing thing and I'll stick with one style. I think I'll do freestyle. Works better for me.

[The Monkey Square]

Tweak this

The thing was fucking great . . . well, after that AMAZINGLY LONG credits sequence. I downloaded this for the animation, not to see who created it. The text you guys used for the credit sequence did NOTHING for the overall mood of the piece and was, in general, distracting. I gave this piece a four. It would have gotten a five, but those credits in the beginning really affected my judgement.

DemonPenguin responds:

i did tweak it i made the monkey square 2 and the credits r the same cause i believe i need them in there ...i guess i like them too much ...but any way check it out..

[MadStix]

well . . .

I think someone needs some counciling.

Evil-Soap145 responds:

I saw your movie, and it blows

[Ranma½ Interactive Dojo 2]

yeah, ok

It was kinda dumb. I know you're trying to be funny, but you just come across as stupid. Yeah.

Dekathos responds:

Well you're in the minority, lady. Yeah.

[Klingon Recruit Video 1]

that's nice

I hate it, but It's a wonderful piece of flash. Klingons . . . yay . . . I hate hate hate hate hate the subject matter, but the flash is great . . . you should use your skills for fun stuff . . . ok.

Koradan responds:

Go to the "Search" area at the top of this page, and look for "A ninja's true path." It is a ninja parody. I made that for realultimatepower.net.

[Violence]

Till the end . . .

It was quite cool till the end. The music was great, the premise was great, but the ending . . . retarded!

allpro responds:

yeah thansk it was more of a test t osee if i can do a style i had no plot or anytthing so i jsut put a stupid pictuer of me at the end okay well thanks for your imput i relasie that the ending really sucked :)
