[Iron Chef Battle!]

That was different.

How very unusual. I like cooking shows too - a secret I have carefully concealed from my wife for years.

[Hitler Joke]

Good Art but...

that was an extremely stupid joke, and probably rather offensive to anyone who remembers the Holocaust.

You might want to cuddle up with a copy of Schindler's List and see if that alters your perspective.

Kudos on the illustration and animation, however. Good work there.

[Battle for Serret Axre]

Very nice work

You certainly put a lot of effort into this.

I wanted to make a couple of suggestions:

1) you should place a mask on top of all other elements, to neaten up things like the border of your starfield

2) when handling graphics with long alpha or colour tweens, never go all the way to 100% alpha or 0% with any other transform - this causes the graphic to appear to warp or move. Instead, tween to 99% alpha or 1% brightness. You'll find this improves your tweens.

3) when using raster images for animatoin, make very sure that they have a transparent background. There was a disturbing effect behind your spaceships as they crashed, and I 'm not sure if this was the cause... it might have simply been bad colouring.

4) some of the voice audio was repetitive, (pilot's voice when crashing)

[WeaponmasterPt. 3 Preview]

How ironic...

I had just pressed the blam button, thinking to myself "How tired I am of these lousy stick anmiations" - when this entry squeaked into the portal... So I got a protetoin point for blamming this lousy stick animation. go figure.

Pl4gued responds:

if u dont like stick animations, DONT ****IN WATCH THEM

[Playing with the Remote]

whoa there...

let's take it a little easier with the language, hmm? It makes your characters seem more annoying than funny. The situation in the vignette doesn't warrant every second word being "fuck". The language makes you little stick dude less sympathetic and robs the situration of much of its humour.

Hardedge responds:

What the hell?! The language?.. OMG...

[The Void II]

nice graphics

Nice concepts and nice graphics. However, what can't stand is that TTS speech voice. It's like trying to listen to a radio that has fallen into a tub of molasses.

I know that the clocks are supposed to have voices like those cheap talking clocks from the early 80's... but that joke is very old, and the sound quality seriously interferes with the enjoyability of the end product.

[Jesus vs Muhammad Trailer]

Competent, but extremely offensive

I'm not sure who this disses more, Christians or Moslems.

In most of the west,(where religeous freedom is interpreted as a license to blaspheme and persecute - so long as your targets are Chrisians), you can berate and insult Christians just as much as you please. However, you will face almost universal condemnation for your insult to Islam.

[Thoughtless]

wtf

bleh - the Matrix, revisited and badly animated.

[Faceless .T.]

Nice art but....

Please, please, please - learn to spell properly.
