BigCronch responds:

I would love to. Hopefully make some sort of sequel in the future

[Cartoon All-Stars Reanimate - Scene 04]

3 seconds is way to short. Art is good but this belongs in the art portal for being way to short.

[Tub's Stub]

Note: this is real mental disorder, where people put a leg in bucket of ice & wait. Then call 911 & get the leg amputated. Usually the person gets an idea stuck in its head that its in the wrong body & decides to transform via self mutilation without fear of the consequences.

[Clowns in Heck: Ep. 4 - Or High Water]

Either the boat rid going slow or the long pauses, makes this boring.

[Talent Show]

Q- Where are you from
A- My house

You should have stuck with jokes. Perhaps funny song. Animation could improve.

I've giving you 5 stars because Phobotech is intolerant so equality demands I balance the score. Newgrounds is the home of political incorrectness, plus the a judge being a fellow contest & just giving messed up review is actually funny.

WINprince responds:

Haha don't worry about balancing the score, I don't really care about that. but thanks lad.

and yeah I kinda regret picking that song halfway through the animation, but I was like "No way I'm changing the song now lol"

And yeah, the animation is lame. idk lately Iv'e been really lazy with animating things properly.
But you right, it's a bad habit. I think it's because I don't really feel like it's worth spending so much time on something that not many people are going to watch anyway.

But thanks for the review man, I appreciate it!

[GUNMETAL BLACK 00]

Glad to hear your returning to 2d. I think you did peak with 2d but understand the need to try new things. If you can't master 3d, then what hope to do the rest of have? damn it, Ive gone from glad to depressed.

A few things in this story did not make sense. Like:
Why introduce a machine gun if your going to instead use a sword?
Why tell the kid to 'get your own' hover bike when there are 2 bikes (probably more since 2 guards)?

Kel-chan responds:

Machine gun is for later. So far I've had most chars use melee weapons cept for the one girl. As for the bike. The guy is a dick. I was gonna make him a drunk but I didn't know how to do drunk sword fighting well

[slice of life]

The blur filter at the top, thru most of the movie starts to hurt my eyes after awhile. It makes sense as an opening and a few others dream scenes.

kddametrius20 responds:

yeah i can see what you mean, ive noticed that too when i got done exporting it. i was going to turn down the opacity but i ended up forgetting when i proceeded to the rendering process.

[The Johnsons (Parody)]

The tears was nice unique exaggeration for that situation. Though I'd expected Green shirt kid to start talking, err I mean snitching.
Some of the begin dia log was bit hard to understand because they never explain why money was owed. Perhaps if red/white shirt refused to pay for his half of the game & dad paid instead it would had made more sense. If red/white shirt was a girl it would make more sense as to why green shirt is getting beat, cause boys get blamed for everything. Heck my sister would yell "boy's can't hit girls" while taking a swing at me, and I get the belt because I moved out way resulting in her running into the wall. She's probably out some black lives matter rally, right now, trying to convince some dumb guy to get in fight with the police to protect her.

[Why HTF Has Been On Long Hiatuses (Part 1)]

The good
I think you created some new original cute characters
Some animation, but you gave up on animation near the end by not animating the legs & such.

The bad
There's too much text which moves fast to read it all. Find a way to reduce it as it kind of repeating the same or similar stuff.
Maybe its the sleep plot, the music & the story is boring me to sleep. Was that the plan?
Even when ripping off 3 animals tails there's no blood or mumbled screams of death. Happy Tree Friends looks violent but its actually about 3 frames & then the blood just sticks around like a shape between the head & eyes/nose/mouth. Anything longer is typically a loop.

Happy tree friends is not just cute & cuddly. More importantly they didn't just stand around talking. For example "staying alive" start with a tea party until disco got them dancing kind of & "Tongue Twister Trouble" revolved around cute kitten turning a tongue into a pillow by first slow padding it to horror of the ant eater & then slicing off the extra.
