Could've been better.

First off, nix the buttons that don't say what they are until waiting three seconds to appear at the title screen. Also, I don't like the pronunciation 'Balamb' and 'Quistis Trepe.' On the same note, Sephiroth, Tidus and Wakka never swear. Next, half the voices are good, but the other half are horrible, namely Wakka. Even for an impression it really sounds nothing like him. The direction felt very poor, as many times there would be a large unnecessary pause between lines. Lip synching was just as bad, along with the multiple traced images. It's just like any other horrible NG submission only with some time and energy put into it. So what IS original in this? Nothing, probably.

The secret scene is dumb and makes no sense. I hope you purchased Advantage's album for that song.

"Oh god I have to sit through Supernova again."

Toonimated responds:

I never trace pictures.

What.

"Sure, the quality isn't the best, but it gets the point across. The simple fact of the matter is that I'm just one person. If I had a team of artists, it'd be different. I'm just doing what I can with what little free time I have."

It's over a year later and you haven't made much improvement at all. Why bother submitting something that isn't the best you can do?

Perhaps you should try coming up with an original story instead of degrading Captain N any further.

...and Tails has never, ever looked so ugly.

MetalMaverick responds:

It's getting to where you can't disagree with someones review with his zealots coming out to mouth off.

Again, "What little free time I have." There's a saying, "Perfect is the enemy of good enough." Sure I can spend way more time on this stuff, making it uber great, but then how long would it take me to finish an episode? I'm not going to live forever, and I don't know if I'll be able to do flash for my entire life either.

So, taking a quote from Sealab 2021, "If you don't like it, fine. Go watch anime."

Very well done.

Despite it being NeoPets, I thoroughly enjoyed it -- well animated, good lip-synching, original drawings. You have good potential, and with stuff like this, you're better than NG.

nef responds:

Thankya. Heh, I know Neopets isn't exactly something most NG viewers would like, but what the heck.

Obviously intentionally bad.

Because Misteroo and I are too lazy right now to work on our own flash productions, we decided to tear apart this one for a good 10 minutes. Here's what we came up with:

-It's 29 seconds long, it consists of sprite tracings, and it has robo-voice

-During the never-ending tweened mouth, there's what seems to be the number 6 on Magus's nose. On closer inspection, it seems the 6 USED to be his nose, but then he shrunk it down on accident and went "OH GOD NO WHERED HIS NOZE GO!??!?!", then drew a new one, totally missing the fact that it was still there in his half-assed attempt of actually having to draw something

-The continually tweening mouth never stops, no matter how long you watch it. Why? It's a loop. Actionscript makes it go back to the frame just before his mouth flips.

-Just before Magus fades in, there's some black lines and some light blue lines. On second inspection, the black lines are the muscles from his arm, a failed first tracing, most likely. The light blue lines are anyone's guess.

Obviously, it's intentionally bad, and we thank you for passing the time before we can go back to playing Kingdom of Loathing.

Mystic-Skye responds:

Obviously intentionally gay! That's what you must be but thanks for the review :)

Again?!

...so you submit the same stupid thing, only improving the graphics a bit. Also, 75% of the file size was the music alone, tsk, tsk. Come back when you don't suck at flash, thank you.

CecilDragoon responds:

Very nice coming from someone with no flash on NG, How about you shut up and work on some flash of your own before insulting other people for their attempts.

Watch this.

That was cool! I like the simple and clean-cut style, and the timing was nearly perfect. Could've cut out a few seconds of dead space here or there, but other than that, I totally enjoyed all four minutes of that part of my life.

Thank you.

SeizureDog responds:

No. I thanka you! :) Glad you enjoyed it! And now, back to ,*sigh*, life.

Uhh...

This was supposed to be funny? Yes, I can see that it's DUMB, and that it's about the crappy sprite flashes that too many people upload over and over to NG... however, I don't see how this is any different from them.

For all I can tell, this IS just another stupid sprite movie.

CheveLoco responds:

and for all i can tell..you are just another stupid Ng user with no flash submitted...so to me your opinion means nothing..

Could've been so much better.

Two things stuck out in my mind as I watched this:

1) The author needs to learn how to sync audio in flash.

2) This could've been so much better.

My main gripe is how little animation was occurring. 50% if the time it was just a character STANDING AROUND with his mouth moving. If you're going to use sprites, put some effort into it, get off your ass, do some massive editing, and MAKE THEM INTERESTING!

Congratulations, you've ruined a wonderful song for me.

FatSatan responds:

"1) The author needs to learn how to sync audio in flash"? More like, the reviewer needs to 1) get a decent computer that can run a 993kb Flash movie 2) learn how to pause and resume a Flash movie when his computer's causing the animation to lag 3) shut up.

For the love of God, no!!

Here's a note: 5 MEGS for 2 MINUTES is totally unacceptable.

Yes, this abomination lasts two minutes. Bowser's army attacks, fade, movie over. How the hell do people think that's so amazing?

First of all, it's been done.
Second, it wasn't good the first time.

Completely unoriginal. Try much, much harder next time.

Phantasmagoria-crow responds:

Sorry about the file size. Sorry it's such an abomination.

Kinda nice.

You art kicks ass, but as for animating it, that could use a bit of work. Also, it seems as if the background mp3 is the majority of the filesize. You should compress it, as this doesn't need to be 4 megs.

Anyway, for the good, the story was cute, and the lack of voices was alright. It didn't subtract from the quality of this submission.

Definitely not one of the best I've seen, but still a decent submission. I'd recommend it.

Sipho1312 responds:

yea i just need to learn how to animate...well thats not true i can animate, but i hate usin a mouse to draw everything, all that was drawin with a mouse...so after a while, u get tired of it, so most of the art is motion tweened to get the effect i wanted...but as seen as a i get a drawin tablet, ull see much more hq stuff...

THIS IS MY MESSAGE!
