Now, now... don't get your paper bag all wet...

[Miss.Dynamite XIV]

The best Miss Dynamite yet!

That was definitely the best Miss Dynamite yet.
Although there were some problems with the male voice cracking, I applaud Sirkowski's efforts to make the portal entry in another language.

The story flowed very well and the transitions between scenes were flawless- it really felt like a big production.

Sirkowski is getting better and better with each Miss Dynamite animation and each cartoon gets smoother and more enjoyable as the series progresses.

The only flaw? It's too short! But I'm not going to complain about that or else he'll start drawing stick figures... I think the NG portal has enough of that...

This was well worth the wait- exceeded my expectations.

Sirkowski responds:

Thanks, I was scare that since it took so long to be finished, people would be disapointed. Delays usualy create big expectations.

[G HaWk AnD OrAnGe ClOcK]

G Hawk's partying it up with Orange.

The only thing the bugged me about this entry was the lack of a preloader and the fact that G-Hawk and Orange Clock kept partying non-stop...

I don't know about Orange Clock but I know for a fact G-Hawk can't party forever....


I was entertained.

Surprisingly.

OrangeClock responds:

Actually, there IS a preloader.

[Halloween Ball Movie]

I was so scared.

That I couldn't move...

The review is organic. This isn't nepotism; Shrapnel really likes it! I think I like this even better than straight tens.

Don't let that make you guys think you can stop voting straight 5's, though.

Thank you, Shrapnel.

[Gender Roles]

I really do have a penis!

I really do have a penis!
It's true!

I like the Machine Head - Five loop during the credits- it's a catchy beat.

It's too bad this short wasn't longer but it was still funny.

I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more flak for bashing women...

Even though it's a joke. : )

But hey- the penis is more versatile!
You can pee in any direction without moving your body, you can make sandwiches, fight crime...

Thanks for letting me do the goofy voice Cable.

cableshaft responds:

Damn straight. My penis, I mean. Straight as the lead pipe in the movie Clue. Just as big too.

Koe wa nakereba, kore ga eega shita mono datta. Seikaku hanashimasen.

[Harry Potter/DBZ]

It's got balls of power of a thousand moons

Superb!
The parody of DBZ at the beginning was wonderful- that show has too much talking and not enough fighting.... Goku definitely needs to shut the hell up.
I read some previous comments and it looks like the author is adding a feature to start the movie from the shut up Goku selection menu.
If it isn't too much trouble, it'd be cool if he could add a bit more violence to those scenes....
I can't stand Goku at all....

The voice acting in this entry was great even though it was hard to understand Goku at times (which isn't important because he's supposed to shut the hell up anyway) and I like the background music that played for the duration of the clip....

The rewinding of the movie was a neat effect as well.

The strength of this clip comes from the fact that a bunch of random wacky events were strung together in such a way that it didn't make any sense even though it was in the context of Harry's magic show....

I don't think I know what I'm taking about...

But I'm going to watch it again.

ImageNation responds:

Thanks actually right after you posted this we added the new option at the end of the movie. As for the added violence we won't do that not to this cartoon any how but we have a few others in the works that should meet that need:) thanks for the review

[Scrap Book: Mon vs. Fita]

That's a lot of class...

That was a great short.
Although the "farting" sound kind of detracted from the clip, the animation and style of the clip blew me away and made up for it.

The physics in the clip (the falling of the characters etc.) were animated with shocking realism (I'm not talking about the cartoony parts where Fita hangs in the air- I'm talking about the movement of the characters) It felt very organic and real. When Fita is falling between the buildings you can almost feel the heat generated from her feet sliding down the walls of the building.

The humour was also great- from the guns rolling out to the "music" starting when the walkman comes on screen to the leg of the corpse moving to fit the chalk outline.

This was non-stop action with a decisive climax.
The ending music was a little anti-climatic though- the hanging drum roll leaves much to be desired for.

So what was wrong with the clip that kept me from giving it a 10?

IT'S TOO SHORT!

I hope the author makes more soon!
I'm hoping that this just the 2nd of many Scrap Book series to come.
Also, check out Damian Martin's Tana series- great stuff there too.

Wow, bud. Thanks. Do you do this for a living?

[Message from Penny Bain]

Warning- the following review may be biased.

Some of you might not get this portal entry because you might not know why it was made.
The BBS regulars will all know why this was made and understand all the in-jokes in this entry.

Now is it hypocritical to make a violent cartoon to protest Penny Bain's claim that websites like Newgrounds.com spawn true life violence in kids?
No. This entry shows how Newgrounds is an outlet for the people, a way to express how you feel by making something instead destroying something. By seeing our raw emotions manifested in a cartoon can we quell the need to act upon them in a socially irresponsible manner. We are frustrated at people who blindly claim that violence stems from the media. Often, violence in children are due to the fact that children aren't raised with enough love and attention that they are due- parents are busier these days and are not there to instill a set of morals into their children or supervise them. Instead of attacking art (yes, this entire site is a work of art, started not for the want of money but as a cry against the pressures our youth (or anyone for that matter) face in today's society) does anybody attack the system? Shouldn't we be tackling child abuse, bullying or providing someone there for children who are feeling lost in life? Or any other crises our youth may encounter? What about the education in our current school system? Are we catering to the emotional needs of the students? There are many social ills in society that need to be dealt with that are true cause of violence. Did they need television during the Spanish Inquisition to tell them how to torture people? During the times of the Romans, did they need the Internet to tell people how to crucify criminals? Violence is a part of human nature that will manifest when people are stressed. Take away our ability to express ourselves and we will express them in more socially unacceptable and more direct ways.

Now don't take this entry personally Penny- you should be flattered to become an icon.

PS: Yes, that is my voice... and not my natural one!
PPS: Hi VicViper!
