[Madness Heist]

Great film

~~REVIEW~~
ok so first off its always tough on the big file size not a real bad issue but it would be nice to not wait as much as some do, like i said thats not an issue, maybe have the viewer/player do something with some activity on the menu page while it loads, anyways great flash here with the whole madness style always a plus, it was abit "SLOW" in starting credits, i guess you wanted some build up, i like the opening scene, and this all reminded me of a great gangster movie, the "VOICES" are great, but i would suggest adding some "SUBTITLES" just a nice feature to have. but not needed as the voices were very clear as is, Now again i must say this really reminded me that i was watching a gangster mob movie great camera position, great voices and great cut scenes you did a fantastic job on pusing the camera scnes of what the viewer sees and im always impressed with that, what movie is the audio from it sounds familuar, but anyways great flash i was more impressed then expected of a madness film, keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
loading page could use some sorta activity so that the player could do something while its loading some sorta mini game would be a start, Could use some subtitles as an extra feature but not needed, also look for places to save on space like the slow credits at start you could possibly cut that or cut straight to scene, just an idea anyways,

~~OVERALL~~
Madness at its best

MOC-Productions responds:

Thanks alot for all the detail! I know what you mean about the loading screen. I've debated updating it, but I'm not sure. Plus that would probably make the file size even bigger :/. And as for the audio, the music is all original by Mr.Redstone.

Glad you liked it. Thanks for the in-depth review.

[Echo Force Zero: Vol1]

notbad at all

~~REVIEW~~
so this was one huge file not a big issue there was alot you put up forward, i would slowly push things and characters, some art detail could also be focused on, it was abig production almost seemed as if you were rushing it, now as i get into this it was right away funny especially with the first scene and that lil "VERY" cute indeed, great intro too, infact i find the "HUMOR" the best part so thats a plus, the characters are good but a tad more deatils here and there wouldnt hurt.so all and all this was a good pice, great voices decent visuals and funny story parts. untill next time keep up the decent flashworks.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As mentioned above some art details here and there could be mentioned, the charcters could use abit of that, just more overall detail in that area and such,

~~OVERALL~~
fun movie with a medal always a plus, good graphics, decent voices i enjoyed it.

LewToons responds:

thank you very much! The whole cuteness is important to me - - i know alot of people think its dumb or kiddy but i think it adds an element of fun

[L'Amour de Rasputin]

I liked it

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm well that was differant, it was very short but the {GRAPHICS} were very good even in Black and white, allthough you should add some {COLOR} maybe just abit here and there just a few focus points, of color, this film had a whole german feel to it though, i do like your characters and the music was very german sounding guess that was the idea, but really it was ok, so how can you improve on this one? well for one you can make this longer, more of a story, and more differant scenes then what you had, but again for what it was it was notbad, anyways good luck on anything new you got going on.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Could be longer and more other scenes and such more of a story to it

~~OVERALL~~
It was entertaining could be longer

Battosai810 responds:

I don't quite understand your {FORMATTING}, you can just use plain ol' English dude.

It was fully intentional for this to be black and white, and I didn't really want to have the rasterbated/Sin City sort of "black and white with one color" that's become so passe. The music was Russian, and the writing was French; I was going for a surrealist film idea. I'll admit there's really not much of a story here, it's just sort of strange for the sake of it. Glad you found it entertaining anyway.

[Goku's TV ad]

Entertaining

~~REVIEW~~
haha great {VOICES} i thought it was way too {SHORT} though, the music at the end was really great though, the animation voices and humor was all great all had something great too offer and made me chuckle abit with the humor so i like the idea and cocept of what you were trying to do, so nice job on that aspect of stuff, but agin i thought it was just a tad short maybe as a tip you can make alot of these short adds and have them in one flash? its an idea, and would make your flash have abit more {DEPTH} then it does, but like i said i like the idea with the sorta interviews and such, it was entertaining and i got a blast out of this little flash, so keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As mentioned it was a tad short, you can make alot of these short adds and have them in one flash just an idea though

~~OVERALL~~
A very short yet entertaining flash.

~X~

Chimbley responds:

yeah it was a bit of a stretch submitting something so short, and I actually regret not holding on to this cartoon so that I could eventually do what you recommended. Thanks for the review man

[Drugs, drugs, drugs!]

Entertaining

~~REVIEW~~
I like the {CHARACTERS} in this one, very cartoony like on sat morning toons, the {VOICES} were very good aswell, the idea of the kid wanting to smoke crack lol haha, it was amusing, eww gets abit disturbing with the old man but i must say you did pretty good with bringing the humor to this and all, kinda disturbing there at the end but still must say i was entertained and amused and thats the idea here so nice job, i did however think it was kinda {SHORT} so maybe it could have abit more next time, i like all the advertising at the end screen hehe silly but kinda neat, anyways keep up the decent work and i look forward to seeing more of your stuff soon.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Onlything at all, would possibly make it a tad longer, maybe even adding multiple short flashes

~~OVERALL~~
Entertaining even in a disturbing way

~X~

BillyNapalm responds:

Thanks for the great review, glad you liked it! :D

[It's over, Marcus!]

Great flash

~~REVIEW~~
ok so this starts off slow with the loading page, not an issue, i do like your loading page as its something and a good funny looking character if i say so myself, so notbad there, so as the movie gets started, the character has a sorta {FRAME BY FRAME} also like the touch of some subtitles, this was played very well with some real sound/fx. and voices, and it showed real emotion from the character it was like a real movie, i also loved the differant Camera shots, so very nice job there, you gave it some {HUMOR} as he was falling, and ouch at the end i love that you just fade to black very nice touch, and another nice touch was the ending {MUSIC} i believe that was from {CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASIM} show? anyways great flash it was very good right from the start, glad i saw it and reviewed it ill add this one as my faves.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
So on this one as to improve, its already great as is, but maybe as he is falling have a cloud of images of what he was thinking like the parashooting and all, just an idea though.

~~OVERALL~~
A great movie well deserved award, and very well made with emotion and humor

Steinberg responds:

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you liked it that much and faved it! I put a lot of effort into it and appreciate your time into writing this great review. Yeah the song is from Curb Your Enthusiasm, I had it laying around my hard drive and noticed it would be a nice touch. Thanks again for the great review!

[Ogre & The Witch]

I liked it

~~REVIEW~~
yeah it was a pretty big file you should cut it down somewhat, but i like the idea you had with this one, the color, and such that was pretty interesting so props to you on that one, the animation was right on could be abit more {SMOOTHER} but for the mostpart i rather thought it was just fine, as for the voices that was notbad could be a little more clearer and sharper sounding at times, but again other then that this was an alright piece, and while the file was very large it was a good flash kinda short but still entertaining and very amusing, so once again nice job and i look forward to anything else you may have worked up for us, untill then good luck

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I mentioned a few things were animation could be abit smoother and voices could be sharper aswell, file was really large maybe that could be looked into aswell.

~~OVERALL~~
A short yet amusing flash.

~X~

ToonCastleTV responds:

Well it was either normal quality at 5mb, or high quality at 15 mb, and i pursured the high quality in hopes of higher entertainment value. True animation could have been smoother, but animating in this style takes time so I took every shortcut I could that would leave me with a sufficable submission. This was a school project also, and I LITERALLY, finished this without 1 minute to spare... ^^ As for the voices it was due to the mic I used unfortunately =( I have a good quality one for future pieces. thanks buddy

[Facebook Girl]

Entertaining and amusing

~~REVIEW~~
lol this is pretty funny, it reminds me of a few people on facebook and all they do is update stuff with pictures and stuff lol, it tends to get anoying i suppose, as for your little flash work here seems like you put some good {EFFORT} into this with lots of people and to look like facebook alot with a very good likeness, and i like how you made it funny with the {TEXT-BUBBLES} and such, very good humor in that area of things, i enjoyed it and was not expecting it but still very entertaining, so nice job there, i was pleased to see this and glad to see the effort come across, anyways untill next time good luck.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would make it more {INTERACTIVE} more stuff to mess with and click on here and there would be a great choice.

~~OVERALL~~
Funny and amusing of them pesky facebook updaters lol funny stuff.

Dosensuppen responds:

Glad you {LIKED IT} and thanks for your {ADVICE}.

[Pico's Penny Prank]

Funny and entertaining

~~REVIEW~~
Well this was cute has a very cartoony feel, and i must say the {MUSIC} was very catchy and seemed to {FLOW} very well with the funny toon, the {SIZE} of the flash was notbad at all, not too big or too short, allthough the toon was still very short, now dont get me wrong it was amusing and made me laugh abit so i was ok with that, but would have been nice to see it go on abit longer, The artwork was very oldstyle the backrounds anyways and i think that made for a fresh flash with the characters being very fresh and new like, as for the animation it was quaick smooth and fast but still very enjoyble, but i did like and enjoy it in its fullest so nice job on this, and pico day was fun with a few good pico flashes such as this one.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Make it longer maybe add a few other new characters,

~~OVERALL~~
Funny pico day 2011 entry.

~X~

ToonCastleTV responds:

it's true I would love for this flash to have been longer to, but due to time constraints this is the best I could do ! thanks for the great review :D
