[Soul-Driven: B1, Chp. 00]

Definitly looks promising...

Definitly looks like a cool series... the animations seems a bit too choppy, but the style, and some of the perspectives were awesome. Also, I hope you plan on using actual voices for the show itself (I realize this is a preview so you may not have that together). Hell, if you need an extra male voice, let me know! ;)

[X-Men: House of M part 4]

Brilliant.

It's a pleasure to see such a damn good series pull it's way through from start to finish. Everything was done superbly; and that's still the funniest parody of Wolverine I have ever seen. (even if he didn't say anything in this episode!) =)

[(2006) Klay Valentines]

one of the funniest in a while!

it pisses me off that these rarely peek over the 4.0 mark here on NG. this one was hilarious, and really well written/animated. i think you have submitted so many, that people forget it's freaking CLAYMATION! i would love to see anyone else who is voting less than a 4 or 5 do something half this good out of clay. i know i couldn't. anyways man i am really lookin forward to the movie, and it's rocks every time you're able to release one of these awesome shorts! =)

[The History of VideoGames]

a fair review for ya.

i haven't submitted anything yet, but i have done quite a bit of work in flash (for websites mainly), and i know how hard it is to put something together like this. so let me say first off, that you did a great job with artwork. the animation was good, and you had some really clever stuff (the space invaders, pacman in the maze, etc). also a fairly original concept, what with the mushrooms attacking and all.

here's some constructive criticism:

- i am a fan of random asian electronic music, i have a bunch in my library. BUT, that song did not fit with this film AT ALL. it really destracted from the movie.
- the plot was quite jumbled, and i was confused as to why the mushroom kingdom was attacking pacman and his gang... what happened to mario? if it was maybe new games vs old games or something, that would have made sense.
- finally, i think you could have been a bit more creative with the weapons being used by the mushrooms. it really just felt like a civil war battle with mushrooms instead of the british! ;)
- oh yes, and the ending was way too abrupt. really no resolution at all.

to me this seems like on of those movies that could be reworked to be something well worth my 5 vote! but for now, it gets my 4. good luck in the future!

sweet thx for a fair review

[Peoplemation: Trash]

how is this not well over a 4!?!

i dabled in stop-go animation when i was younger, but i could only dream of doing something this cool! this is well deserving of it's font page, but it's a shame it's still under the 4+ mark. oh well, it was a fine movie, very well done. =)

[LR: Prelude]

fantastic work you have here!

seriously... amazing animation, especially for a fight scene. any animator knows how damn hard those are to pull off! one thing that's usually lacking in a well animated film is good sound, but you nailed that too! i'm really looking forward to this series!

[Pink Colour]

suprisingly good!

like the previous reviewer, i didn't think i was gonna like this either. but i did! you know you did a good job, when you can draw an audience that normally wouldn't be attracted to this kind of film. it had a good plot, and was really well played. good job. =)

[Sprawl Metropolis (Old)]

Wow, impressive!

Every once and a while a series emerges on NG that really puts other wannabes to shame. This is one such series. The sound quality was terrific, and the voice acting was actually good! (OMG) The animations was great, with some cool 3D effects that really put it over the top. I can really tell you know what you're doing, and I'm looking forward to future episodes! =)

[Primal War 04]

that was so good!

i don't get how something like this doesn't have at least a 4.5. so well done, with buttery smooth animation! my only issue is the really slow sound quality. other than that a fantastic film!

[The Zero Dragon ep.2]

Wow!

Holy cow you did that all with a mouse!? When they started fighting, the animation was really good! It's tough to do FBF fighting, but it looked great! My only complaint was the slow/chopiness of how thelines were performed. Maybe make things sound a bit more natural for the next installment. Great job overall!
