[How To Raid A Bank]

Neat

^^Good Points^^
I guess if anyone wanted to know how to raid a bank, this would be the place to turn. I liked the many different scenes in this and the way you made this into a guide instead of a regular movie made it much better. I liked the interactivity in the first two scenes and liked how if you picked the wrong one, there was a quick little movie and then you picked again.

^^Needs Improving^^
One thing is that I would have liked to have seen the entire movie interactive. Just having the first two scenes interactive doesn't make much sense. Also, you could have put some more detail and shading into your scenes.

[Popups Suck!]

This is alright.

^^Good Points^^
Well, everyone hates popup adds, so you picked a good thing to put in front of suck in the title to your movie. The animations were smooth and the drawings were pretty good as well. I liked the "A.S.S." error on the computer, especially the paragraph about Microsoft. The end was kind of funny as well. Short, sweet, and to the point.

^^Needs Improving^^
I thought you could have been a little more creative with your pop-up adds and made them more NG oriented or something.

[Mantis (Trailer)]

Good.

^^Good Points^^
This is a pretty powerful trailer! The voice over was done with effort and lots of emphasis. The voice over was done very well, and the music you used also set the mood, especially the music at the end. The backgrounds were drawn very well and animations were good too. The trailer gave a good amount of information about the movie yet doesn't give the storyline to the series away. It's a shame that you didn't make any episodes to this series, because it seemed like it would be a good series.

^^Needs Improving^^
You used stick figures...not a good thing. I felt that you could have used real people with the graphical skill you showed in the background.

[Chasing Amy]

Pretty interesting.

^^Good Points^^
My favorite part of this was the introduction you wrote. I found it quite funny when you said "This might offend a gay person" for some reason. Anyway, this was a good clip to make a movie about. I've never seen the movie, but it sounds pretty funny from this line.

^^Needs Improving^^
You didn't do a whole lot for this. Your images didn't look like you drew them and there wasn't much animation at all. Your animations and subtitles didn't match up to the text either.

[8]

Funny but short.

^^Good Points^^
This definitely is not a bad movie by a long shot. I'm not sure exactly what motivated the storyline, but hell I liked it. The sound effects were laughable at how horrid they sounded and the ending was just too funny not to smile at.

^^Needs Improving^^
This is just a bit too short for me. If this had been longer I would have given it a much higher score.

ill repost this answer:

yes, this is actually just a work in progress version of this.

the full one is alittle bit longer with full color and some better animations.

[Bof: Armageddon Part 2]

Better

^^Good Points^^
This episode is definitely better than the first episode. You added a lot more humor to this and I actually got a laugh out of this movie. You managed to keep the storyline still pretty fresh and developed it even more. The fight scene was much better as well. You added some cool attacks and it was much better than the first.

^^Needs Improving^^
You should add more sound effects or something. The music is really too dominant in the sound department.

[BOF: Armageddon Pt. 1]

This is pretty good.

^^Good Points^^
I'm a big fan of the BoF series of games, so finding a BoF movie series on NG is great, especially since it seems to be a good series! There was quite a bit of action in this and the storyline was pretty nice. You ended this episode in a good place, right where I expected it to end. For the sprites that are available for BoF, you did a pretty good job of animating as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
The music kind of got repetive after a while, and the fight scene seemed to be very drawn out and there isn't a lot of humor in this.

[how blobs fight]

Good animations

^^Good Points^^
Blob in a title usually means bad things for a movie, but this wasn't too bad at all, in fact I found this quite entertaining. I liked the many different effects you used (blur, shadow, matrix) and the music really spiced things up. You even added some good humor to this. I enjoyed watching the fighting in this movie and I commend you for this movie.

^^Needs Improving^^
I would avoid close up scenes on the blobs, it really doesn't look too cool.

[TMFO #5 (Osama)]

Could use a lot of improving

^^Good Points^^
Again, this isn't a bad idea, to show a bunch of photoshopped pictures of someone. The music is a good clip, and this is good for a quick smile or two.

^^Needs Improving^^
Basically the parts that aren't so good about this is the same as my last review. The sound clip should loop first off. It's too short and doesn't fill the time needed to view the slideshow. A few of the pictures are low quality, like the one where he is being followed in a car.

Thanks for the review

[TMFO #6 (Bedn)]

This is alright.

^^Good Points^^
This isn't a bad idea for an interactive flash slideshow. You had a bunch of funny pictures, some of the best of Bedn. I enjoyed looking back at old times by watching this.

^^Needs Improving^^
This doesn't have a great graphical design. This is very bland along the lines of coloring and shaping and just looks very unprofessional. Also, you didn't do a lot of work in this movie except for gather a bunch of pictures and made a slideshow. Also, the sound clip should loop or something, since it is way too short to play through the whole thing if you read all of the captions.
