The stuff you go to newgrounds for

I mean, yeah, Brackenwood is just stunning and such, but I guess most of us come here for the fighting, explosions, humor, and an occasional batman. This has them all.

Keep on drinking, because it's definately doing the trick!

It's a horror without the horror?

You said that the real horror will begin in part two. I could almost live with that. Almost, as the file is pretty small, so I guess you'could've waited and finish 'part two', and just make one bigger movie with that. Then it'll at least have the horror. And that's what you want people to watch your movie for, right?

You also said you didn't want to add music, to make it feel more like a horror. But when you'll think about it, every horror as music. You may not really notice it, but in almost every scene is music.

The last thing I'd like to say is that the colors were...colorful. Maybe you want to make your movie a bit darker. That would make your movie a bit more horror-like, and you don't have to draw as much, as a part of it will be...dark.

Nice review ,,, thanks for the tip'S.

...

You are a great director.
You used the sound right. You used the violence right.
The whole movie emitted the feeling it should.

If you feel you're not good at the graphics, you might want to work together with a friend who is good at it.
You are very promising.

Inspectorlee responds:

thanks for the comments, being a film major, i'm particularly honored

Nearly flawless.

Really. Everything just felt right about it.
Everything? Well, unfortunately, the vector images looked a bit out of place in the sprite world.
But hey, if the rest was awesome, who cares?

Trunks responds:

Yes, I admit that is a very bad downpoint of the flash. Anyways, I am really happy you reviewed this! I am even more happy for you to have said you liked it! Thanks a ton, I am honored to have you like this; you are one of the best flash artists ever. Period.
Thanks, you just made my day :D

Almost...but not quite it.

Maybe, the next time (there will be a next time, right?) you might want to spend a litle bit longer on the drawings, and the animations. Mainly, there are two reasons for that. First, the framerate, which should be improved. second, the drawings don't really have the Kingdom Hearts style.
Anyway, if i would have ignored that, i would have given it an eight or nine out of ten.

This doesn't seem to have a story...

...except for the thieves vs. thieves part, the rest is almost random people killing other random people.
For a series, you might want to lessen the fighting, and have more scenes in wich the story develops. So, instead of the text at the beginning, yoou could have put a flashback, or another intro.

Nice : )

...Hellsing, Naruto, and do I detect a bit of FF?
But tell me, why do most FBF have to be black and white? Colours can make things look better. And a story would be nice.
Make more...more! (Talking in a agent Smith kind of way...)

NEO666x0 responds:

Simple my friend color is harder because you will paint on wrong layers and you will end up useing more MC then FBF unless your realy good.

P4!

...
The 4th contest? I missed 2 and 3. Thar's too bad, as they are all very good.
I gave the 6 for graph. because of the simplicity of the graphics, 6 for sounds, because they were good, but it needs a bit more effects (such as the scribbling sound when you're drawing). No violence, and a two because you included both Play and Replay buttons.
Maybe you should give the contestants more time to draw, so they can make colored pictures and stuff. And give them more different styles, because their drawing styles look too much alike.
Now I'm going to watch 2 and 3, so I'll be waiting for number 5 then.

ForestXion responds:

thanks
i'll try to improve it for round #5 ^^

Violence, swords, nice graphics...

Everything a newgroundling needs :)

So I'd only like to see a bit better animations (It needs more movement, these were almost pictures), and I'd like to hear better sounds.
Well, I trust that the other flaws (length and story) will ofcourse be solved when the full movie is completed, so no comments there.

When will it be finished?

Cuteness...

I don't know about the deadline, but you succeeded in making it very cute. Really cute.
It's a bit slow tough, and the graphics were okay, but you've improved I saw (African Safari was nice, as was your normal art), so I don't think you need tips or points for improvement : )

Be sure to have a good time, ok?
