[Mario vs. Luigi (Part 1)]

Not bad, but could have had more work.

The concept of your flash is way too over done. The problem is, is that the flash isn't good enough to stand out from all the other character vs character movies out there. The fighting wasn't too bad, and was fairly interesting to watch, but you might want to add some reason why mario and luigi are fighting and impact sounds when they fight are also good too. This also needs some work in the basic presentation of the flash such as the preloader, which was poor. Fix some things, not as many as you think, and you'll be known in no time :)

Not terrible, but you need work.

The problem with this is that I have no idea what has just happened and this teaser gives me no reason to ever watch the real movie. Some of the scenes lasted too long and were dragged on forever. The movie as a whole was completely boring and dumb. I know you can draw well, but make something interesting with it k? You need to add more action and suspence and maybe a hint of what's going on or an introduction to a character. Work on it, and you'll be great one day.

Sweet, sweet randomness

Cool animation, and very smooth too. It was nice and random, but still had a cool style to it, and you could still understand what was going on. Or at least I could. However it seemed to stop suddenly and the movie ended. What was with that? Did you ran out of ideas or something? I hate it whenever a movie gets good and then just ends. It's happened more than once today now. Oh well, if you ever finish it, it would be great because I like this a lot.

[dog war : eastern front]

Interesting take on WW1

You used dogs instead of people which was interesting, the drawings and animation was ok and the battle scene was fair too. I think that if this were made a game it could be quite cool. (Like a first person shooter) The thing that annoyed me about this is the ending. You tried to be funny but instead just come across being stupid. The DBZ thing and the dogs dancing was dumb and I think that it really ruined the movie. Maybe some people like silly stuff like that, I don't.

[Super Mario Orchestral]

Very cool

I like this a lot, and I also love the music! I felt the mario sprites weren't very tight, they seemed too curvy, unless that was your intention. I thought the best part of the movie was the ending with bowser because what he did really synced to the music well, unlike the other parts of the movie. The conductor through the beginning seemed like a waste of space, because all he really did was take up space on the screen, you could have got rid of him altogether and it wouldn't make a difference. Very cool style and original too.

[Mario: Killed By Chomp]

Here's what you need to do

The movement of mario was very choppy try to slow it down or up the frame rate. The transitions to and from each scene were also choppy. Again, make it smooth by increasing frame rate. The basic plot was based on one dumb ending, which isn't good. Think about an interesting plot, build on it and that makes the content of the movie better. It takes a while to become good, and lots of time to make even a simple animation. Just spend more time and you'll do fine.

[LL - Idea Quest]

Having no ideas becomes an idea!

Very cool flash, and good smooth graphics too. I thought it was very creative of you to come up with the idea of having no ideas and then building on that to make a cool flash. This flash is very well made because even though it's fairly long, the file size is also quite small. I really enjoyed this and will be watching your other lock legion flash.

[China Rap!]

It was ok

I thought the song was quite weird, but the lip syncing and pictures was good. The character singing the song was drawn ok, but all he really did was lip the song the entire time, i was hoping that there would be more animation for the character, but instead just a bunch of pictures pop up relating to what the song says. It's average, but with more animation it would have been much better.

[The Backside Squirrel]

WTF is right

I'm guessing that since this is your first flash, you were just playing aound with what you could do. That's great, it from what I see, you can draw well and the shading was nice, but seriously, even if you are just playing around, people want to see something worth while, and not just some random stuff. You aren't a bad animator, it's just that now you have to make something interesting, as being interesting is very important.

[Street skating]

What the???

It's a guy skateboarding. That's it. The animation and drawing for he guy is alright, but the background is plain and there is no sound, plot, play button etc. If you want a flash to be good you need to work harder on it. Try adding some humor by making skateboarding wipeouts. Have this character ddo more things on the skateboard, and add a plot, like him being in a contest or something. By the way, what is with all the flashing? That really pisses me and I'm sure a lot of other people off.
