[DBZ Style 3: Worms]

Yeah! Anthrax kicks ass!

But that's a very minor point I'd like to...well, point out! Ah yes, every one loves those War-Ready adorable Worms! Especially when two of them duke it out DBZ style...I guess... Okay, not everybody particularly likes DBZ given as how the plot and everything about it just got beat to the ground (heheh...no pun intended...) several years ago, but the ending just made it all worth it! Not to mention that I was surprised as to how smooth your animation skills are! Great job! Oh yeah, and in case the very top line didn't say this, but Anthrax was a good choice! So all in all, this flash DESERVES a 10! Great Job man, hope to see more stuff from you! Peace Out!

[The First Thing]

Beautiful Flash, man.

You know...I think it's safe to say that every man has been in that character's shoes at least once... or rather a true man... and only a true man DOES find the strength to move on after something like that. Great flash man. Graphics were smooth, music was appropriate, excellent style that millions of guys can or will relate to, a slight bug in the preloader (stops at 6% until the movie's loaded, then it steadily ascends to 100%.) but no big deal, at least you had one. What else can I say other than "Good Job man! I'm giving a 10 and voting a 5."...oh yeah, and Peace Out.

[Fritz the Fox]

Grah! Stupid Farmer!

Dude! This flash kicked ass! Especially given that I'm currently in Civil Air Patrol and have high hopes in becoming a Navy or Air Force Fighter Pilot! The dogs, or rather American Fighter Pilots, (heh, it seems you're all for the Germans arn't ya? That's okay, they had awesome machinery) ...were they flying P-51 Mustangs? And what was Fritz flying? I know I'll recognize the name when I hear it, but I just can't think it right now... but all in all, your artwork was amazingly accurate! I loved this non-vocal, nice WW II style dogfight! You kick ass my friend, and I'd like to see more stuff like this from you!

PS. If you were intending on giving Fritz a voice, please don't. He's just one of those characters that are better off without a voice... for example, Tom & Jerry. I dunno, do what you want to, it's your character...but if you want to keep that WWII feel, you might get better results by keeping a mute character.

cherokee158 responds:

Actually, the dogs were British pilots flying RAF Spifires. Fritz flies a Messerschmitt Bf109, one of the most produced aircraft in the world. It takes backseat only to the Russion IL-2 Sturmovik and PO-2, and the American Cessna 172 (which I'm sure you are familiar with!) in terms of numbers produced.
I'm not really a big fan of the German military, but Fritz is part of a series of cartoons set in WWII, and putting him in the Luftwaffe enabled me to 1) let him fly a wide variety of interesting planes on every front and 2) name him Fritz.

Good luck with the CAP! Happy Landings!

[A Fight for Life]

Hmm...

I havn't seen any of your previous flashes, but the animation looks fluid enough to me. So I think your goal has been achieved if it makes you happy. One thing that bothered me though, was why did the Blue guy have his "Instant Nun-chucks" and then just stuff it in his belt again! (or what looked like he was stuffing into his crotch.) I can understand the guy being overconfidently powerful and all, but that just makes him pulling out his "Instant Nun-chucks" completely unnecessary and makes him look really stupid. Another thing, were the sunglasses at the very end all that necessary? And couldn't you have a scenery in the background, and have a side view for the character that way it's easier for the viewer to identify that "The main character is running away from the compound before it explodes" All in all this is an "okay" flash, and I think your goal has been achieved with the fluid motion, so good job on that. I give you a 6, and Peace Out.

FubarPro responds:

Well I guess I made him put the nun-chucks away so that they would be avaliable later. But good point anyways.

[Sonic's Quest For Power]

Holy Shit dude! That was fuckin' awesome!

I loved this sprite movie! It even beats Megaman Re-Vengance in the choreography department! Now, you say you had trouble with Font colors because of them blending in with backgrounds? Just use a speech bubble or a box to put the text in. Also, try and give a specific character a specific color, that way the viewer will never get confused. The sound was also supremely awesome by the way. Which, if it's not insanely too much to ask, can you hook me up with most of your Sound Effects please? That would be awesome! One other thing that you kind-of need to work on is your special effects, (example: Blasts, The Portal, Explosions, etc...) All in all this is an awesome page, and will more than likely make it to the Top 50. Outstanding Job!

LgdVegetto responds:

Yeh the subtitles sound like a good idea..thx for the pointer! :) But Alot of people seem to hate this movie though... :( ...I just wanted to try to save Sonic...that's all :S .... It's just a Tribute...not a perfect movie...

[playing with shadows]

Impressive style.

I liked the style of the art-work...very nicely done... But it needs more; It needs dialouge, it needs...well...MORE! Just keep the series going man!

[Mascot]

Hahaha! Greatness...

That was actually pretty damn funny! That poor Mascot will do just about anything for attention... Luckily my team mascots are a Male and Female Lion wearing Blue Jerseys that are notorious for starting staged fights during pep-rallys! Maybe you could have them and your Horse Mascot as rivals in your future flash series! Lol, I'm joking... do what you want. All in all, Great Job on this flash! I'm voting a 5!

Phobos Technology, Phobotech.

NOTE: This is the first time I clicked "View a random entry" and something actually GOOD came up! YES!

[A Lil' Help]

Heheh...That was pretty funny...

I liked the animation style, it was very smooth. The music however I didn't like, it wasn't that good... The humor content was also really funny, but the Robot chopping the guy's head off was a bit predictable. This flash proves, though, that the legendary MindChamber can still duke out a good flash! Great Job!

[(2003)Jacob II]

Reminds me of Army of Darkness.

Yeah, this one is better than the first by degrees! I like it alot. My favorite part is when the Green shirt guy (who appears to be as immortal as Jacob if he can survive a shot in the head from the last flash...)and the Red shirt guy were charging at each other going "AABBLBbBLBLBBLBALBBLBBLBLB!!!!" Hahaha, greatness...

"This is my BOOMSTICK!" Phobotech. <---- (it's just my favorite line of the movie that this flash reminded me of...that's all...)

Knox responds:

ha ha i see,thanks for another great review.
if you liked this series,check them out in my up coming..series..ha ha..featuring ALL my clay charecters.
COMING IN DECEMBER!!!

[(2003)Jacob]

"You DON'T...SHOOT ME when I'm ON...THE... PHONE!"

This is the funniest claymation I've seen from you thus far Knox...well...I'm not sure how good the 2nd Jacob is yet, but I'll check it out as soon as I submit this review. There were a couple of things I noticed:
1 The people in your flashes can really take a hit... I mean, instead of having an arm blown off and go "OH DEAR SWEET JESUS TAP-DANCING CHRIST!!! MY ARM!!! AAAGH!!!" They rather go, "...well...damn...he just blew off my arm." It's like they're on morphine or steroids or something...
2 The guy had his arm blown off, yet, eventually it grew right back... LIZARD MAN!?!?!?
3 The people's bone structure is really REALLY weak...well...oh crap, I'm such an idiot...they're made of clay. NEVERMIND. (Heheh, that could open up an opportunity for you to advertise milk. "See what happens when this man NEVER got the proper amount of calcium needed? *rrrip* Oh dear God! His head fell off! EEEEEKK!!!)
4 That guy in the read shirt needs glasses...BADLY...he has eyes that are all over the place...lol!

Just your average observations from a casual reviewer and near future flash artist, Phobotech!

Knox responds:

1.ha ha yes..i agree :P
2.i really screwed up on this one,but his arm dosnt get blown off,just his hand,it stays that way through the rest of the clay mation i think,yet in part 2..his whole arm is gone.
3.lol
4.ha ha yes,hes a dork

good bye! :)
and thanks for the review
