To be frank

I'm not sure what to say. Radiohead is a great soundtrack for this though, good stuff.

And if you're talking about your own experience, I'm sorry - that kind of thing has got to hurt a lot. Deaths fade with time but with your love, thats just horrible and I can't imagine anything worse - I hope you've got good friends! Alternatively if you're making everything up, you're a peice of shit for doing so.

And in the techincal side, you could do the shape tweens better they were pretty crazy - put in shape guides to help it out. Or in the case of the stick man, you could have just moved 6 bits around the screen yourself. :)

Thank you! Nothing was made up, im not that kind of person to make up stuff like that... but thanks for the advise. though there was a reason for makeing him (the stick figure) so bad, i wanted him to look unglued and pretty much not real, also it was easier to do it that way. also in still in the learning side of shape tweens, after all this is my first submitted flash. i hope to make more in the future... well, thanks again!

Well,

The audio was from Blizzard, they released it for christmas aaaages ago, you can still find it on thier site somewhere, along with lots of random christmas wallpapers and stuff.
So taking the audio credit away from this, it isn't all that spectacular as far as Flash is concerned. But it is still a nice peice of nostalgia (sp probably) for me, good stuff thinking to bring this out.
Though John didn't do the voices or effects, obviously.

Unoptimsed!

Could put a picture or something in the preloader to make it more interesting for us poor dialup boys.

Far too large for what that was, you dont animate to save space somewhere in there - work on that. It was alright, the blood and guts was well done - to make it better you need voice and music if you're going to have dialouge in it.
*spoiler*
Some of the graphics were pretty good like the Helicopter, though its a shame you didnt show us the undead guy killing them at the end.

Not bad!

This has potential man! You've got an alright plot to work on, kinda like the Fugitive. Keep the voices, though you might want to put more .. emotion into them, they're not fitting exactly - but any voice is better than only subtitles I can't stand them, and I always want to give higher scores to those with thier own dialouge, they put more ass into it.
Different music would be good, though if not - this is better than nothing.
You've done a lot of work on shading, within the eyes and on the face due to his hair etc, which is pretty good, his first jump was very well done - I like the way you've improvised and worked well with images as background.
A bit more realism in movement in the next one would make this series amazing, so far it is looking quite good, keep it up!

Yea

Well I'm not a big fan of sprite animations at all, so keep that in mind. Your little mushroom guy doing the rapping was cool, but this is very repedative and boring. I know it is tempting to recycle scenes as you get further into a movie, but damn it doesnt make a good movie - you should have cut the music earlier if you can't be stuffed finishing it properly.

The music is it's only saving grace and that is not your own work as per usual Flash animator styles, and there is very little actual work here that is yours, a bit of arm and mouth movement, yipee.

It's not too bad but don't recycle scenes so much because it makes it tiresome, better to have a 2 minute good flash than a drawn out 5 minute thing, that by the end you're just longing for the release of death.

Katanaman responds:

It's not necessarially recycling the scenes. It's making them go further as the song progresses. It's also hard to make it not too repetitive because there are lots of timing issues when making an animated music video.

As for the animation, you're wrong. the arm movement and lip sync were the easiest parts(and making arm movement with sprites is not that easy!!!). The dancing took a lot more, since there were more sprites to clean up and animation to make.

Original?

I think not. It appears as though you've stolen bits and peices off all the decent DBZ authors on NG and put them into a movie.

Sure it's lovely, but trailers are not supposed to be boring - too much sitting text, if I can read it 6 times before it goes away, it is there far too long. Do things double the time it takes you to read, so everyone can read it - no more!

Not a bad peice of ass

Your sounds are great, you've got a great evil laugh on you man! The details are great, all the gradients and things really put this a smidge above the rest - When you're making this one though, perhaps you will want to go back and make the chest muscles more beleiveable - they looked like breasts a lot. Other than that the characters are great, and good for you moving away from stick figures! Beauti music too

Nice

The fighting bit at the end could have been cooler, that really destroyed the flash.
Little computer scan noises and things when the terminator is scanning the room would have made it better too - and whoever reviewed before me is right - the Terminator has a jaw.
Other than that it is a nice idea, just the ending bit was kinda lame.

Rat Arse

For a sing along it is expected the music will coniside with the subtitles. This really let you down! Stream the audio you boob. This is the main reason I give you a two. That and the fact that Americans hating Canada is as stupid as New Zealanders hating Australians - it is rubbish, the lamest type of Patriotism.
That and you pinch Eskimo bob characters, and a general lack of any Flash graphics at all.
I think the only reason this is scoring highly is because young Americans will vote this highly for it's message against Canada, not it's greatness as a Flash.

punk546 responds:

Sorry for the 6 year delay for a reply. Its not against canada... its ABOOT canada. Its true that Americans talk trash ABOOT canadians. I recommend you get out of the house more. I would appreciate if you would help this movie get blammed.

Excellent

This is really quite impressive, and leaves your previous Crusader wanting! :)
I really envy your skills with visual effects, your blasts and things are really amazing, unmatched by the other DBZ things in the collection here (save that shot in brutality)
Some things you might want to improve on for me to give you a perfect score -
The characters need some hair. I'm just not a fan of plastered on head hair, even lego men have some extrusion going on - especially DBZ!
Like everyone else is saying more SFX and dialouge with voice would enhance this greatly.
You might also like to look into having a small low alpha value next to the enegry ball, so you get the kinda glow effect - it is really well done in Brutality, and makes the energy balls look much more, real.
keep it up this was excellent, and was a lot longer than expected! Great optimisation there!

I'm not putting my lips on that.
