[Phoenix Wrong: 42 Edition]

Few errors but nice

Rather nice tribute that shows the Phoenix Wrong fad isn't over yet. While some of the sounds were funny, the fourth one has been used in one of the tributes before, so there's a bit of a loss of originality (but some of that originality comes back as to how the lawyers reacted to it). Also, the sprite placements were off, as whenever the characters moved any part of their body (or even if they sweated like Phoenix did), their entire body would move around. What was also noticeable is how you rotated the preloader to the side, just like AshfordPride did. So yeah, good parody of the parody here.

SM42 responds:

I fixed all that bumping for the sequel, so go check that one out! I also made it ten times more original!

[HK's Phoenix Wrong]

Cookie monster = win

Right when I heard Cookie monster, I instantly had to put up a 5 on this flash. I was also rather convinced to 5 it when I heard a sound from Conker's game. So the sounds you used were great but when you stretched it, the sprites looked a bit worse than originally. Also, Phoenix was also somethimes not lined up with the edges of where he was, so you should probably try to fix that up if you makes another one of these, which is highly recommended by me. Looks like your 'eternity' of work has me fifening it, overall. Good work.

[Madness Onerosity]

Almost like the actual Madness

If you claim that you were 'lazy on this one', then I guess there's no telling what your full skill is in Flash. The movements were very fluent, there was plenty of violence, there were zombies, just like in every real Madness Combat, and it was flat out great. Although it would be best for all of us if you showed us how good you really are instead of being lazy and not giving us your true skill. Still, I encourage you to keep working with Flash.

The 3rd i'm going to actually try on, this one i did like 90% in the week i started it, so it was very rushed. I'm looking for a character artist for the next one.

[Phoenix Wrong: Lawgasm]

Back for more, eh?

Well, I'll admit. Not THE funniest of your series but still pretty dang funny. And to think that you'd take a quote from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends...that just befounded me. The Kill Bill quote was also pretty easy to recognize. I'm just surprised you haven't put in Cpt. Kirk's legendary 'KHAAAAANNN!' scream in any of these. But overall, great comeback movie.

[Castle III part D]

Really into it

I will not kid you. I was truly into that movie (as in I really liked it a lot). I was just wondering what would be happening next as everyone tried to escape. Even when I thought Boomer was done for, it turns out he's barely hanging on (literally, too). For an end to a part of a series, this truly made the grade. This is probably going to net you all three top awards as well. I can't wait for the rest of your series to see what happens to Etrius and Lloyd as they're still in the castle.

Get-lost responds:

We will find out. Thank you

[Break in and your fired 8]

Looked and sounded great

All the characters looked great, except Donald Trump wasn't perfect, as his hair is starting to go gray in real life. The parodizing of all the shown characters was great, as Jay Leno DOES have a huge chin after all. But after the movie, why couldn't he have bursted in with his special car to make his cameo appearance? You HAVE seen Jay Leno's car, right? So all in all, it was funny considering the situation everyone was being put in on the movie. How long do you consider keeping this series alive?

Drumunit responds:

Thanks alot :) Yes, I have seen Jay's car. I wanted something like that to happen. But the animation was already 50% done and I could'nt change the audio there to put in a sound effect for that. =P I plan to keep the series alive as long as I can. Its just something I really enjoy working on.

[Mario- The Time War]

Unique idea

In a fight between Mario and Bowser, things go in an exteremely different way (other than the fact that Bowser's not standing on one of those crappy bridges with an axe at the end of it). The idea itself was great and all the Marios I know were seen in the movie trying to kick Bowser's keister. The sprite animations of Mario getting up were pretty solid too (where he was sitting shaking his head). So overall, a pretty solid sprite movie to boot.

[Chibeh: PILOT (Episode 0)]

Fluent

As a Japanese artistic flash, this was rather funny and well animated. I found it to also be a good spoof of MGS. Random events would just happen for not good reason as things seemed to have gotten better for the protagonist. But the major problem with this movie was the SOUND. It would vary greatly at times especially with the mystery man. His voice was extremely quiet compared to everything else. And when I turned the volume up to hear something quiet, something loud just bursts out at me. And the last minor problem was that the replay button got really annoying because I mistook it for something else. But yeah, this flash was good. Try fixing all this when you make the next episode as it will improve the series.
