"A parody of his comic?"

submission: Pokemon Plusle

date: October 22, 2008

It wasn't a parody of his comic. It WAS his comic. Except tweened and with weird music.

Score: 5

"Har har"

submission: How 2 Succeed on NG pt.2

date: June 28, 2008

It was cute, I guess. I noticed you ranked culturally relevant satire or whatever up there at the top, which I guess this was intended to be. It just didn't seem like so much of a satire as you just listed off things that everyone's already noticed. The sarcastic parody of a parody of parody comment just sorta made me roll my eyes.

The voice acting thing really didn't hit home as much as I would have expected, although I'll be so bold as to guess I'm one of these estimated 5 voice actors on newgrounds. If anything, I was kinda disappointed by how uninspired the voice acting parodies were.

The most ironic part to me was how you specifically acknowledged the importance of timing in comedy. I felt that the lack of comedic timing was actually one of the greatest shortcomings of this flash.

All in all, I think you're a good artist and I'm glad to share a newgrounds with you.

Score: 10

"Solid Animation"

submission: Going Grim

date: October 19, 2007

Great animation. Loved every bit of it. Granted (hahahahaha), it was a bit on the short side and the pacing was a bit slow, but I still very much enjoyed it, especially the easter egg. Also, my evil laughter was pretty gay but at least nobody else has mentioned that yet <_<. Oh, and I'm NOT PRO!

Score: 3

"Forget the joke for a sec, how bout the execution?"

submission: Parking Ticket Police

date: October 8, 2007

Needs a lot of work in the voice acting and comic timing departments. Honestly, that interaction between the two characters felt painfully fake. Then the part at the end was timed very slowly and awkwardly so you were not only well aware of what was about to happen, but you cringing at the thought of just how obvious and lame it was. Maybe that joke could have been very funny if it was well-executed, but that's something we'll simply never know... unless we watch American Dad! =D

Score: 3

"If I rated flash based on voice acting alone..."

submission: Metroid Prime Catastrophe

date: September 19, 2007

Well, it seemed like conceptually you could have gone somewhere cool with this. I can't help but feel that you fell very short of that. I saw some compliments specifically on the voice acting in a review and thought, aw I better check this out. I cannot understand why, of all things, the voice acting would stand out to someone. Aterga101, try as she did, gave a very deadpan performance and destroyed some potentially funny lines. It sounded like a dry read throughout and was spoken hastily and with little emotion. To her defense, perhaps the script needed some proofing. I can sympathize that sometimes the scriptwriter's first language isn't English, but that shouldn't stop you from getting a proofreader.

I am not obsessed with animation technique, but this seem to very little art in it and rather a small collection of symbols (mostly those making up Samus) tweened to the point that it become very obvious and unsettling.

Grats on your awards and front pages though. You clearly impressed a lot of other people who weren't me and that's just dandy.

Score: 10

"TomaMoto Raves! "A stunning tour de force!""

submission: BBQ-Town 2500

date: July 12, 2007

With a background in always-agreeable good old-fashioned humor, bbqbeefburger man takes the next step to stardom in his latest NG debut, BBQ-Town 2500.

The new color elements were surprising and welcome. The plot was classic.

And the new song... I'd like to say I've been singing it all day, but I got it early, so it turns out I've been singing it all week! Awesome job, Darkside555 and Bad Man Inc! Maybe some time we can get together and do a director's cut with with the authentic bbq voice. It won't be as good as the original, for sure, but it might prove amusing.

You certainly don't dissapoint, bbqbeefburgerman. Keep it up!

Score: 10

"Good material!"

submission: New, From Apple!

date: May 22, 2007

At first I thought... why no backgrounds? Why is it all white... Then it occured to me that in the more recent Apple commercials, there really only is a white backdrop, so that seems fair enough. Anyway yeah, Apple does prey on the whole, "look how hip all of our expensive crap is" angle. Good job. Funny flash. Nice choice of music.

It was a pleasure voicing it and a unique experience actually having to do a rap...

Score: 5

"Fairly weak"

submission: SW: Sith Confrontation 2

date: June 7, 2006

Adjust the sound levels with music, please. The casting was weak and I thought that only Windu was well acted and casted. All the other actors sounded awekward because of poor acting. Some voices simply sounded way too young. The animation style was entertaining. The writing was oh so weak. The jokes were so lame that I could die and the poor acting only made this worse. Nice try. I'm sure this took a while to make, but I thought itwas lack luster
