[SOCOM: US Navy SEALs Ep.1]

Pretty good

You Americans, always picking on us Canadians! I didn't know whether to be offended or not, I was at first but that mounty grew on me. But you should have given him a brown hat, that green didn't fit, even if he was trying to pose as a navy seal. Pretty good for one of your beginning movies, keep it up!

Adam

P.S. Notice how I didn't say "eh" once in this review, I never use that "word" if it is a word, and I quite honestly don't know any Canadian who does :p and I don't live in an igloo with eskimos and pet beavers eating raw fish and calling the mounties to get drunk every day. And it is not winter all year here either, there is snow and cold temperatures in winter only, for like 3 months, no more in the year. Nice work!

BOE responds:

You have just given me some really great ideas for episode 2. I may tease Canadians in the cartoons, but it's just to make people laugh. Just wait till episode 2, you'll see that it's not just the Canadian that will be made fun of with stereotypes.

[The Necromancer Episode 2]

Dear Mark,

DAMN you rule! That was amazing! I was entralled by it and captivated by it, I was in it man! Your voice acting is really excellent, your art has much improved from comet magnum, I like the little theme bit, in the beginning, and it was cool to see some of the parts from the opening theme in this episode, excellent choice of music, excellent art, animation, etc. Everything ruled!
My one suggestion would be to use movie clips, that way you can make animations in them then not have to worry about them, like when people run away and things. Excellent work though. And for blood I recommend you use the colour #CC0000 it is more crimson and looks more like blood. Excellent work, I love your stuff!

["Last Man Standing" Part3]

EXCELLENT!

I love your Last Man Standing series, Sully! Even the first one! Excellent frame by frame animation, it really makes a difference! (I loved the cloak effects in episode 1) My computer was just re-formatted yesterday, so my sound card doesn't work yet, so I had no sound, but I loved it even without! Some of your visuals just made me go WOAH... like the houses in back of the Samurai as he stood, just amazing. Saru was definetely my favourite character, I loved how you drew his helmet, and you animated him superbly well, well you animated the whole thing beautifully! You've improved so much since the first one, I love the series, you are probably done with the series, but please make more!! Ok bye, I'm going to watch it again!

[(old vers)Dead Rain 3]

WOOOOOOOOOOOAHHHHHHHHH!

BEAUTIFUL! That has got to be the most detailed flash movie I have ever seen, just, just wow! You see that is how they should have done the Resident Evil movie. Your gore was breathtaking, yet anatomically correct all of the time! I've seen the trailer and all the episodes and loved them all.

Your backgrounds are amazingly detailed! The little pebbles falling off of the blocked doorway, the little bits of smoke coming out of the pipes, the pipes themselves! It is really amazing, altogether!

Your zombies were beautifully detailed, and quite varied, which was always good to see. I liked how their body parts smoothly blew off, and how the bullets bit into them like huge mosquitoes. Your animation was superb, from the lighting effects when the gun was fired to the turning of the character's head and body!

You chose perfect camera angles almost all of the time, which was really great to see! This movie takes a fucking dump on genryu's blade! That movie is so simple compared to this masterpiece!

AH-buh-...shi..shuh...you-that THAT WAS AMAZING! I'm buying YOU a pizza!

[Cyborg breed the teaser!]

....

If you did in fact make this, then why didn't I see Steve Castro OR Wade Jones in the credits?

Adam

Steve-castro responds:

Because it was made by a company that he worked for and he was caught in the proceess and for legal reasons they ask that we didn't put our names in cos the company they're endorsing might get pissed off we did put new sound in just voices and space ships they origanally spoke this alien language sounded like spanish

[QUEST Episode 3]

haha I love Quest!

The characters are damn hilarious, but maybe you can get some of your friends to do voices? It would be much better, and when they walk, it would be better if you animated the feet at least. Great work though!

[Zodiac - Part 1]

Great

Cinematically speaking, this was an excellent film, great use of surreal techniques and old film effects. Nice black and white with red, a perfect colour scheme for this movie.

As to the subject matter, the Zodiac Killer was a more or less modern jack the ripper, and you are beginning to depict his mindset in your films, which is interesting. But I don't think it is right for you to make a kind of movie portraying Zodiac, as much of a genius that he was, to be a main character. Your movie is enticing but it's not right, to make a fictional movie about a serial killer is acceptable, and even to base it on a killer, but to actually make a movie which nearly exults the killer isn't right..

Still interesting work. Keep it up.

Adam

P.S. In one letter the Zodiac signs his name Red Phantom, in the Phantom of the Opera, Erik (the phantom) dons red clothing at a costume ball and calls himself the red Phantom or the red Death.

Diazr2K responds:

This man knows...Thanks for the review. The Zodiac is great. I got the book. And you should get it too, becuase your interest really shows

[ReturnOfOrayuX-Flashback]

NICE WORK!!

Best episode yet, Justin, you should be proud! Nice voice acting, and graphics, glad you took my shading tips :) This was definetely the best episode yet, I just wish the battle could have lasted longer, but it was still r0x0riffic! Keep making them! Beautiful credits by the way!

Adam

[animation test]

It's kinda short

But it had awesome 3D! So I gave it a 4 right away! Excellent work, hope the full thing is great! Good luck finding a character animator!

Adam

[Joe Rohd : Last agent]

that was pretty cool!

I expected it to be a lot worse! But it was long, and I respect length! Nice stunts, some of them were really good. Nice blur effects done in photoshop or fireworks I presume. You have good animation, but if you would only invest it in something more than sticks, this could be so much more! Also, work moer on finetuning your backgrounds and graphics, I liked this, but it could have been much better, overall, good stuff. But PLEASE move on from sticks!
