[StarFox2 Mock Trailer]

6/10: not too shabby

A nice rendition of star fox.
The animation and graphics were top notch, kinda of had that cell shaded look to it.
Though I guess it was just a trailer so I can't be too harsh on it, becuase really, nothing really interesting happened. It seemed it was dragged out a little too long in some parts just to give the illusion of it being lengthy. The best part was when fox wasn't in a machine, otherwords, on ground. The part were he rolled behind the crate and the part of him in the cockpit in the beginning were the only parts with the spiffy animation was at best. I guess the dog fight in space had it too, but seemed bland. Just show fox a little more so it just doesn't look like a unoriginal scfi epic.
Music seemed to fit with what you are you doing, but the japanese lryics were atrocious, but humourous in a unintentional way. Sound effects were sparse however.
3/5
Don't know if this was actually a trailer or the fact that it has 'mock' in it suggesting that it's just a flash cartoon of a actual trailer for the game? Did it come out already or was it suppose to be spring '05 instead of '04?

There were some parts I stretched out, but that's also a matter of fixing beginner mistakes. A lot of people don't let things stay on screen for long enough, so I may have overdone it trying to avoid that.
Japanese lyrics? That was Iron Maiden. It's english. I picked that song because 1. Iron Maiden rocks, and 2. The song was "Aces High," about WWII fighter pilots.

[The Front: ''Korv'' Front]

6/10: not too shabby

Had a slow beginning, but paced out evenly for action. Like the perspective, something new. Music in beginning was a great choice of setting in the mood, later half...well?
Violence okay.
Graphics could used a little work.
Kinda expected a bit more hectic and frenzy scenes. The air raid did add a nice effect though.
3/5

[Newgrounds Versus - Final]

10/10: perfection incarnate

Gel:
Love your style, totally kicks some ass. Especially mine :P
Very fluid and smooth animation. Love the rich, cool, and vibrant color palette. Like the story too, a little bizzare, but gets the point across. Meaning how people should move away from the stick genre which is was too old and unoriginal. People think that with sticks, it makes animation easier, which might be true, but obviously if they put more work into it...it would be as great as this, maybe. Action was top notch and this is so out of it's own league. Best, fine damn animation I've seen on newgrounds yet, rivals that of bitey of breckenwood! Also the anime girl was cute :P Also voice work was astonishing, adds personalities to characters.
Germ:
Also great animation, it pretty much is in par with gel. I did notice the small details such as the characters bare feet moved when walking. You got the human atonmy down right and the characters moved so realisticlly. The violence was gory and top notch. Did surpass gel in violence, but that's because this was meant to be a horror. The twist at the end made me feel a bit disturbed and at the same time shocked. Which was good becuase I like my horror's that way, more into psycholigical/ thriller/ violence. Personelly this story was a bit more compelling then gel's and the music sets the mood perfectly, I adored it.
overall:
5/5
It's hard too pick between the 2 of you becuase you both kick my ass and are my examples of what too strive for in my own animation. Each area of cartoon seemed to be in par with each other and came out to a draw on both sides, but I'm going to have to pick one for my kinda of style...
Germ...his horror short with a shocking end seemed to have a little backbone story wise, otherwise, both of you are my fav artists. Truely a final for champions.
Keep on doing what you do becuase there seems to be a overload of crap on this site with a few quality entries, most which get overlooked.
kudos, kudos,

[Music Video]

8/10: booyah!

That was creepy as hell.
Especially with all of those subliminal messages.
Had that noir look and feel to it, like most of your other works, but was overly enthusiastic and happy.
Damn! That was creepy!
Maybe it's just me or I truely see the horror within.
Great choice of music and the animation fitted it perfecly. That's becuase I excepted nothing less the great from you.
Also it's coo to finally see the man behind the madness (profile)!
4/5
kudos to a legend,

[PALADIN episode 1]

6/10: not too shabby!

You have picqued my interest.
The graphics and animation were top notch.
Music did seem out of place though with let the bodies hit the floor. I can guess it was obviously meant for the action scene, but just doesn't reallf it with times that are preasent, especially the middle ages.
Violence was lacking, especially during the action scene.
This wasn't that all amazing, but was pretty intriguing. Liked the idea of a preist raising a child to become a fighter, I've seen a lot of this before, but not with a priest. Also the idea of him turning into an alter ego was by the far best scene of this cartoon. It's nothing like the crap that people associate with, dbz, and is a lot more unique. It did seem cliche, especially with the idea of bad guy using his powers to overthrow the kingdom, but had it's momments of coo...yes coo!
3/5

[The Matrix Still Has You]

QUEEN JO THE BEST, WOOT WOOT!!!!

Agent training:
very clever inside joke humor. Unique animation and graphics. Loved how dumb founded neo was, though I think I would of acted as childeshly as he did 10/10 :P
Subway:
Animation was top notch and one of the best frame by frame I've seen. I'm brimmed to the top in envy. Like the use of supposedly deleting smith by putting him the trash. Loved the use of tech humor. 10/10
The Twins:
Animation was good, but not as great as Subway. Though the graphics were subperb. Humour was original, but not that humourous. Great none the less. 8/10
Mobile Avenue:
Very anime inspired in facework and in style. Neo loves Trinity...hehehe, but oracle was being a bitch. 9/10
The Seige:
Humor and graphics were subpar, animation in facial expression were the best. Colors were cool and refreshing.
Overall:
Music choice was excellent, especially since it's coming from the matrix triloligy.
5/5
Love Queen Jo's cutsy anime. I ADORE IT, :P

["The Elevator"]

7/10: good

That was really good, loved the gross factor especially, but that is what you expect from a drunk person though. Does what every drunk person does, urinating in pulblic, induce vommiting, passing out, and the occasional murder. Either it be by vehicle transportation or uncontrolable violence.
The graphics and animation was smooth and rich with cool(type not expression) colors and I adored the color palette. Kudos for looking so pleasing to the eye in visuals.
Short, but sweet.
4/5: rarely do I go over my overall score in terms of voting, but this was pleasent.
kudos,
