I did watch underneath first.

Although I thought underneath was interesting, and showed a bit of promise, this was not worth the time it took to watch it. There was some sort of religous message there, I guess. What was it? If you play too many video games, you'll find the end and the bleeding heart of jesus will come and tell you you've sinned? I don't get it.

Intriguing

The sound work was excellent, except for where the underwatery noise disappeared, when the heartbeat came in. Both sounds should have been there at the same time, I think.

Very very strange, but I watched it all the way through, it kept me interested.

The graphics were crude, but that's ok.

Interesting.

I dunno

It feels very much like you either (a) didn't really have a script for #3 when you made #1 and #2, or (b) you dumped your script and started from scratch. Either way, this is just kind of weird. I've never liked the whole "Oh, but it was only a dream, and never really happened" scenario, it's almost always a copout way of digging out of a hole that someone wrote themselves into.

The animation was superb, as usual, the sound work, the sprite work, all wonderful.. I see you found a way to include your dancing mario sprites in there as well. That went on a bit too long.

I dunno. I'm losing interest in the series. 1 was fantastic. 2, although much larger in scale, felt rushed. 3 feels like "Um, ok, forget 1 and 2, this is what really happened."

A preloader would be nice.

I've watched all the episodes so far, and so far everything reads like english is a second language to you. Maybe it is, so I shouldn't pick on that.

Lots of unlikely stuff going on here. One of the things about the 24 series on TV is that they realistically show that every 1 hour episode takes one hour of show time. I was kind of hoping for something like that here, but I think this last episode was at least 2 minutes, maybe 3.

Ah, well. People seem interested, so good job there. But I think that these seem sub-par. Good luck with them, though.

Uh huh.

There was a movie submitted here recently all about what a flash toon goes through in the submission process - I didn't care for it much, but it was better than this.

More than half the toon was sound clips from the matrix movies - Not a terrible idea, but the "Then you destroyed me" becomes a bit of a reach. You shouldn't have let the matrix clips go so long.

whaTEVA MAN!!!

It's pretty hard to tell what's going on.

I mean, maybe that's the point. I don't know. But, yeah - it's really hard to tell what's going on, to follow the story, or even to tell who is who. Very confusing.

The style of the artwork is very striking, however. The sound was nice and creepy, but it was a bit repetitive. But... Yeah. I still have no idea what's going on.

Eh

I dunno, it's all right, I guess. It never really sounded like he was saying fuck though. But I got the point. The music was well done. The graphics, eh, they were all right. There was some clever pseudo three-d work, using skew, that was well done. I didn't really find it all that funny, probably mainly because although he was saying all these ridiculous things that should have been funny, it never really sounded like he was saying those things. It just sounded spliced together, which it was.

In closing, I'd just like to say that I hope John Kerry kicks George W out on his patookus. Not because he's the best man for the job - but because he's better than what we've got. However, I don't believe that my political views really swayed me one way or another. If you had done the same quality thing with Bush, I would have given it a mediocre rating as well.

Oh. Look. Another stick fighting toon.

So..... If this is the third in the series, where are the first two? Never mind. I don't actually care.

Your animation was smooth, but in places it lacked realism. The sounds were decent, in general. The graphics were - well, they were stick figure graphics.

5 on graphics because it's better than most of the stick-figure drawn crap out there, but only a 5 because it's still stick figure drawn crap.

8 on sound because the sound didn't suck, although it would have been better with some good music.

1 on style because, lets face it, this is probably THE least original concept for a cartoon ever.

0 for interactivity and humor, because there wasn't any.

Coldie responds:

I appreciate the honest and thorough review.

It's good, but short

Nicely done. I would have given you a higher rating if you had compressed the sound, if you had continued it a bit longer, etcetera. But it looked great. You should continue to work on this, it's worth the effort to tweak it and make it perfect.

Unoriginal, even for a parody.

I'm not a huge foamy fan, but I don't have this irrational hatred of the Neurotically Yours toon either. I watch it, sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's not. I do usually enjoy the toons where whats-her-face is involved, and there's interaction with the two main characters more than I tend to enjoy Foamy's rants, but they both have their merits.

That said...

Your cartoon wasn't funny. I realize that you're trying to make a parody of Foamy, but it wasn't funny. It was just complaining, ranting, etcetera. You're probably gonna get kudos from everyone who hates foamy, but that doesn't mean you've done anything worth watching.

"If you say you don't like the animation, if you say you do not like the voices, then your basically saying that foamy sucks also." Hmm. Well, let's see. The animation was similar to Foamy, but Foamy has better expressions than your sock-puppet rabbit. Makes a big difference. The voice - yeah, it's similar, the "chipmunky" effect is about right, but you don't seem to have the same ability to emote as the IllWillPress guy does.

Man, I can take a joke about foamy - I can even laugh - and will - if it's funny. This wasn't funny. It was just lame. Your disclaimer took forever, too. Man. You really should have added a "skip disclaimer" button in there somewhere.

So.... Can you do anything original? Everything I can see by you on newgrounds is all about how much you hate foamy and illwillpress. You seem to have an irrational hatred of illwillpress. Get over it - there are a lot of people who like the toon. Yes, it's often mediocre or worse, but it's not worth spending all your effort to try to explain to everyone how horrible it is.

Go do something that kicks ass, something original. Something funny, perhaps.

I always watch cartoons fully before reviewing them, and I try to respond to as many reviews as possible.
