[Salad Fingers Episode 6]

It's like they say...

good things come to those who wait. I'm glad to see Salad Fingers is up again. The graphics on this thing were excellent, I can see improvments with every installment of this series, it's a good way to trace your skills as they grow if you want to look back on it years from now. Style is very nice, still the old Salad Fingers creepy style which is what everyone loves. The sound is right on spot with everything. With the humor, very funny! I was laughing out loud in the library while watching this.

Overall, it's good to see you haven't lost anything over the break period but rather you have improved. The ending is pretty much open which is nice. I now eagerly wait for the next one up....

[ONE GUN]

That was actually pretty good...

It was fast-paced like an action movie. The graphics though are really bad, the quality doesn't fit well with how much action is going on. There's all this face-paced action but everything looks poor so that took away from the overall effect. The style was nice with the way everything worked so no complaints. The sound with the nicely done music and the realistic sound effects was played out in a really great matter. The violence pulled no punches with heads exploding and everything so that's good (except when the head exploded the brain was still all in one piece, maybe next time show it all gloppy to make it more intense.)

Overall an above average action flash. If only the graphics could do it justice.

[B/W Cartoon About Berries]

I love it I love it I la-ov-e it!

Very very nice one Mr. Firth, it greatly lives up to Roof Tilings and maybe even surpasses it. The graphics are very well done in this amazing paper flash. The style is your style which is and has always been incredibly unique and great. The sound is good although I like the music in Roof Tilings more so than this (I believe the song was called Hyper Darts Challange) The violence was very nicely done and the guy was funny (I thought so) and also very disturbing.

I also love how you refrenced Roof Tilings. RT had Johnathan kicking some guy in a vision or when he was going insane and you should why he did it in this one. There is more but that's the one that really got to me, very great! You absolutly need to look into getting something going and moving from the internet flashes. Maybe make a pilot for Adult Swim?

Well...

It's a little slow but I liked it more than I didn't like it. The graphics were nice but the quality changed from time to time. At times the guys face has to many shadows. Style is nice, the way you tell it and the way it looks is nice. The sound... I don't know. The voice acting is good, they sound real and everything (although I thought the Nathan was a little overacted in the begining) but the quality of the sound isn't so good. You can sorta hear a fuzzy sound while the voice is going.

So overall, it's good but needs work. There are times of weird pauses and the dialog is a little bad (Some phrases sound unrealistic as in it doesn't sound like something a person would say and the dialog sorta talks down to the audience as in too much explaining.) Ghost in the Shell SAC comes to mind as dialog you should strive for, they don't over explain and it sounds realistic. Also some of the pan overs take too long. So work on future installments and I'm confident this will be as good as I see it should be.

I applaude you

That was a very very well done flash. I could tell you put in a lot of time in it. The graphics were TV-quality, it looked like something I would see on Cartoon Network or Nickalodean (Although I don't think I'd see the content there lol). The backgrounds and the animation all professional, very great! Style was excellent, it felt very nice and tense and funny. When they showed the wick getting shorter and shorter I was like "drop it, drop it!" Very great feel. And it was happy in the end! Nice job. Sound was good, it went well. I didn't really like the rock song played after the boom because it felt so generic to play rock after an event like that occuring, but other than that it was great. The humor was good very black sort of humor and very original humor. I was laughing my ass off when he was carrying the stuff. I love it.

Overall a very well done flash movie. It was short and sweet with stunning visuals, unique style and funny black humor. *Applause*

Pretty good...

I liked it. The graphics weren't the best. I could tell you were going for the skeatchy style but you become inconsistant at times. Some times the face is detailed and sometimes the face is just the guidelines. I think it would look a lot better if you were to use more detail by at least erasing the guidelines and leaving the face blank (you could go the extra mile by sort of outlining the eyebrows and nose). The style was pretty cool with the way everything went, the backgrounds and what happens very 'dreamlike' ;) so good job there. The sound was alright, I like the sound of the Greensleaves song in a rock sort of feel, that was good, but I didn't really feel it fit with the flash as well as it should have, it was good though. Violence was nice, good choreography with what was happening.

Overall a decent job, it's lacking the most in the detail of the graphics in my opinion. Good job nonetheless.

[Retarded Animal Babies 13]

I liked it

I haven't seen Episode 3 yet so I don't know if you spoiled anything or made fun of anything directly from it but it was still funny. The graphics were well done as they are in all the RAB, style is all your own and is done well. Sound is pretty good, the singing got a tad bit annoying (but I know you know that with the replay opition that excludes it). And finally it was pretty funny. Not the funniest RAB but funny nonetheless.

Overall, nice one. I liked it.

[Star Wars Transitions]

I was thinking the same thing.

When I was watching the movies I always thought why George Lucas did that crap, it's so cheesy. I can do that with my freaking camcorder. Anyways, the graphics were commendable nothing special but it fit well (although in the part when the guy dies the bloody could've been animated better.) Style was good, nice way to tell it. The voice work was well done, not bad but not ground-breaking which is nice. Violence was alright, like I said the blood should've been animated better. And I thought it was pretty funny, not laugh out loud funny but funny nontheless.

Overall, pretty good. It isn't all that great but it's good. Pretty good job.
