Nice mix of frame by frame and tweens

I haven't seen a subtle mix of frame by frame and tweens pulled off this well even by more experienced animators on this site.

The movie could have used some sound effects and music but the visuals were extremely entertaining none the less.

I see a shit load of potential in you and would look forward to seeing your next endeavors.

Best of luck.

Thanks for all of the kinds words. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Terrible and highly overrated as usual

The humor is still all the same foamy bitching about nothing but at least germaine isn't being her usual slutty self.

I bash on better movies than this that have the very same scores and while they are also terrible and overrated.

They have something you lack.

Variety and it looks like your drawings have gotten a bit worse maybe because your fans don't set high standards for you but set ridiculously high standards for everyone else.

I can't blame the artist himself for creating the piece of work but i can blame the fans for exaggerating the actual quality of the movie itself.

Germaine just isn't a likeable person in general.

Shes a complete pervert, an attention whore and an all around boring person in general.

at least you had the sense to go in a new direction and shave her head but it's all too little too late.

just like germanine here you take no pride in your appearance just because your well liked already.

You've had all this time to make better and better cartoons years ago but you never taken the chance to improve at your craft.

There are slight improvements since about 2003 but it's all so subtle that it really isn't all that impressive since you usually reuse the same drawings you made months ago.

In a way this new direction your going in while refreshing compared to your other movies is still basically the same bullshit you've been feeding your fans for years and years.

Your fans are not as stupid as you treat them to be because the same cycle is going on.

13 year olds get into your movies but than out grow it and explain the downfall of your series but the whole downfall is an illusion.

These kids just outgrew you plain and simple because your series was never good in the first place.

I still see wasted potential because i have seen some frame by frame in your work but it all stuff you animated long time ago such as foamy waving around his arms.

It's all the same above average drawings with below average animation.

stock footage of animation you did long time does not count as an improvement and some of the brush strokes on foamys arms when he waves around are very messy.

The messiness would be acceptable if he moved his arms around extremely fast but it's at a normal pace and painfully ugly to look at.

I don't think you give a fuck for getting better but there is one postive thing about you be overrated.

People shit out masterpieces that they've worked on for a year or more to compete against you and a lot of these movies are truly good.

Better luck to you in the future but like we keep saying for years and years move away from the neurotically yours series, stop reusing the same, drawings and just in general cool with the recycling of drawings you made months ago.

Sadly you were more creative than this back in 2003.

You captured the feel of super 8 almost perfectly

I didn't think many people here would even know about super 8 film or even anything else about small gauge film making as craft.

If you added a slight flicker within your animation it would have the look of 8mm film dead on but the simple scratches you did was a nice effect too.

You could even color in your drawings and include some subtle light and shadow because while your drawings were extremely good.

a small touch of lights and shadows would have pushed you into daily first easily.

I hope people who see this take your little short as inspiration and than go to a flea market, yard sale, garage sale, antique shop or even the internet.

Get there hands on a super 8 or kodak brownie because they can use the camera to make there own little movies and while it would take more work and money to get it internet ready with the combined cost of film, developing film and telecine costs to get it internet ready.

The craft of small gauge film making never died in fact there are kids around the age of regular newgrounds users making there own small films just for fun and while it is a somewhat expensive endeavor.

It is also artistically satisfying much in the same way as making a complete frame by frame movie such as this.

It would be a shame if you spent all this money to get film, develop it, than telecine it and lastly either watch it for reference or tracing over the footage because than your doing all this hard work for the newgrounds audience that has no appreciation for the art of photography.

I say fuck them because photography is an art and should be a craft that more animators take up.

If you did in fact use somekind of film for reference i hope it was something you taped on a digital camera instead of actual 8mm film.

If i had used actual 8mm film than i would have shown in it the flash while capturing the feel.

you did a lot more work than you really needed to make this little masterpiece and it shows.

Wasted effort used to suck up to whats hot!

Yours drawings were decent and your animation wasn't too bad in fact as a rush job this was great but i'll have to subtract a lot points for riding on the fame of other peoples works.

This little movie could have worked better as a parody.

having a sense of humor about this sort of thing will earn you a better rep with the vocal minority that hates this movie.

I'm not saying you'll produce something everyone loves because such an endeavor is impossible.

I can picture this as a straight up homage with comical drawings of all the characters with funny animations to go with it.

I think that is a little more interesting to look at than a flat out carbon copy of an existing drawing.

Think up your own ideas, characters and stories and even if you are doing a homage, parody or tribute you can still spice things up a little by doing your own drawings instead of attempting to make carbon copies of other peoples work, adding extra features to your layout will up your score.

The skipping scene button and backtracking scene button was a nice feature because sometimes you need to navigate through the movie to get to your favorite parts.

Personally i didn't find any entertainment value in this movie in fact it was only a slight step up from taking existing videos, editing them to music and passing them off as your own work in my opinion.

I hope i wasn't being a complete dick here because I'm trying to be both kind and as constructive as possible with this honest review i written.

Thank you for being honest in your review. But I wasn't trying to "suck up to whats hot" or "passing them off as my own". I've been coming to Newgrounds for 5 years now and I just wanted to show my gratitude to all these great animators. One day I will make a original series, but for right now I just want to have fun. Also, you weren't being a dick, you were being a honest Newgrounds users, lol.

It was average at the most and may get overrated

The whole thing with sonic turning super sayian isn't really that witty to be honest since this is a very common observation with the 13 year old kids.

The fact you sync up dragonball GT audio with sonic has afforded you a chance to do funnier drawers with sonic and the fact you didn't use this chance to draw sonic in a dumb way caused me to subtract a point.

The way you draw sonic was a little to conventional for this type of movie even if your drawings weren't too bad in general.

Your use of flashes filters were perfect and i wouldn't change that.

on some of the close ups sonic's ear the brush stokes were at there worst and when your doing a close up this is when you make your drawings even more detailed because your basically looking at something on closer inspection.

add zits on sonic, some extra shadows, krust around sonic's eyes on some of the close ups in fact why not do a painting of sonic for the close ups since something like this can work a whole lot better as something cartoony as i kept stressing in this review.

Hell, get out the water color paints and paint backgrounds for your brief quickie and fire up your scanner than use a program like gimp or photoshop to optimize your painting to fit into flash more easily.

I would have still hated the movie but than you'd have an even more successful quickie thats basically the same thing on your hands.

Sorry about my harsh review but i was just being honest.

LMAO I hate parody rangers

I wish i had done this first but this is a much better parody than i would have shat out quickly.

The whole thing was hilarious but i would have made the movie super long at about around ten mintues and i can easily see this beating the shit out of any parody rangers movie very easily.

This shows promise and lots of it.

It's much funnier than kirb's sexual innuendos through at random mixed with lame references like your movie said.

The drawings were more crisp, polished and all around better than kirb's doodles.

This can easily be award winning stuff and it's a shame you wasted your efforts on making a quickie to piss the parody ranger fanboys off.

It can easily be a giant movie to piss off the parody ranger fanboys since there is a lot more than can be spoofed.

Please do a second one because i enjoy seeing fine satire such as this within troll movies.

Pure fucking brilliance and i rest my case.

Horror at it's finest

I like the very tense atmosphere you set up with the images and the accompanying music that sounds almost like ringing in my ears yet it's hauntingly soothing at the same time.

It arouses tense emotions in you and this is basically the essence of horror.

The movie had a very polished look to it yet the drawings were awful but because there is a quality to it than even some of the coolest looking movies don't have brings my score over the top.

It's another one of those rare truly artistic submissions that most of the people here will not enjoy unless it both rots there brain and looks cool.

The fact that this is way beyond something that exists to look cool and allows you to think up your own story as you watch makes it all the more great.

People here need a jolt to there imagination since they always expect a story handed right to them even in movies intended to be a piece that sets an atmosphere.

The whole thing is really difficult for me to describe but it was awesome none the less.

void150 responds:

Thanks for writing such a detailed review, and I'm really pleased you enjoyed it.

Until now I've been mostly drawing using a mouse... in my next project I'll have switched to a Wacom pad, which (I'm hoping) will bring an improvement to the style. But I like photoshopping other random images and putting them in too, so it creates quite a mixed texture.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback :)

Ok so maybe your little cousin can do better.

Something about traditional animation while not as polished as some flash movies looks better because the small imperfections in the linework shows that this was made with human hands.

There is a lot of soul to this and has a quality that vector art doesn't have. It's why people prefer film to video/digital, hand drawings over vector art, ect.

I like the fact that it was actually colored in because most traditional animation in the newgrounds portal is mostly pencil drawings that aren't even colored in.

It's like the work of this elusive 5 year year old cousin that people keep threatening other artists with that can do better than some other animator due to simple presentation.

It's painfully obvious that these types of people are simply jealous and are reaching for insults when they pull that bullshit line "My kid brother can do better" out of there asses.

Those so called younger family members usually can't honestly do better little alone the person making said vague threat to begin with.

If they could backup there words than they would have something this good to show for it instead of attempting to do two frames giving up and complaining that animation is too hard to do.

This is obviously the work of adults or at the very least teenagers because most little kids when they attempt animation give up because the process of animation is more time consuming than it looks.

Thank you for the huge, content-filled review! I'm glad you care about the details and our effort... Thanks! :)

an alright muisc vidoe but overrated

The brush strokes were actually pretty clean for something basically made by an someone inexperienced in flash.

I personally find that generic anime style kinda boring to look at since it is so insanely overused.

I would recommend washing yourself of the taint of pop culture and try drawing things you see in real life.

Don't worry about making it realistic because it is basically all fantasy in the end.

You can apply a little bit more color theory to your drawings all together such as shades of light and dark a little more.

Move the shadows and change the lighting as the environment changes.

Go outside and see how light and shadows change depending on enviroment changes.

Remember your training yourself to see details noone else sees.

Anime looks cool because of the way it's colored and there backgrounds not the way the characters are drawn.

The running animation looked terrible it was just the arms and legs swinging when tweening the joints in the arms, legs would be a lot more pleasing to the eye.

Animating a complete run cycle isn't the easier thing to do but frame by frame is the best way to animate a run cycle since it appears more natural and less robot like.

A little more practice with frame by frame since most people on this site have a demand for that since they are typically far too aware of tweens.

Either go frame by frame or make your tweens more subtle.

However it is perfectly acceptable to tween backgrounds and use them to act as the movies camera.

Sorry if i was being a little hard on you but i just don't want you to become arrogant just because your first submission won an award.

So many people here became completely full of themselves cause of awards and never grew as artists.

I see a lot of potential in you but your no where near standing out above the crowd just yet.

-PowerRangerYELLOW

Pretty good

I like the way you drew all those buildings and the fact that it is both polished and set up atmosphere is a thing of beauty.

You have a lot of potential to take this site by storm and this first submission is better than so many higher scoring movies.

The subtitles were a nice addition since i'am an english speaking person.

I don't understand the situation in the polish cities so i don't know what your satirizing but i love it none the less because it is so artistic.
