[Rasputine]

Rasputine... a love machine? False.

I dont recall ever hearing how rasputine was pimpin it up. I do remember, however, how he was killed. I think the song would have been a lot better if it mentioned how he was poisoned, shot, chased down, shot again, and then died-- only after he was finally drowned. Not your fault though, I guess.

JackNicholson responds:

It's my fault, it says at the end of the song how he get killed, but I had to take only 1 minute of the song to make it looking good ...

[The monk and the samurai]

Ive seen worse (first?) submissions.

Shows promise. Spend a 'lill more time drawing with your mouse, and definetly look into a camera/film study class. It helps to figure out shot sequences and framing, which seem to be your weak points.

Raicc responds:

I will try harder, but actually this is the 2nd one I submitted that got through .. the other one is on my other account cause I had a portal ban or sth with this account..

[(2005) Klay Swimming Pool]

HA HA HA HAAAAAOOOOOh man...!

I havn't laughed at one of your movies so hard since a long long time ago! Cant put it into words...

[Wilford and Jesus set]

Funny!

The buttons at the start tripped me up a little, but this was awsome
I love the diabetes commercial thing. I MUST KNOW MY BLOOD SUGAR!!!

[Bunnykill 2]

It was well done.

But I hate watching madness in all its different flavors.

[Jedi, two sabers test]

This doesnt qualify as a flash cartoon. But O well

This looks like a good effect for what could be a good movie. It seems like you have got some kind of wardrobe, which is good, because crappy costumes = good a potentialy movie taken unseriously. As far as graphics wise, the effect is acomplished very well, and I didnt notice any inconsisency in the blade graphic in different frames.
I give you, however, some suggestions:
-Invest in a tripod.
Tripods are great for that same shot you just showed us, so look for a cheap one. Some old 35mm photo tripods still screw into DVi camera bases just fine. Thats what I've got.
-Fine tune the effects.
The way things are now, the effect looks great. To make it look better in the final product, try adding sparks or dynamic lighting to the frames w/ photoshop for that extra effect.
-Remember Internal and External RHYTHM!!!
Always remember, the rhythm of whats happening has to match the speed and transitions of the shots. A long, drawn out fight scene looks better when shot from a mix of shots rather than one long single point of veiw shot.
Anyway, GOOD LUCK AND STICK WITH IT!!!

Its been done better before this.

Looking at this from a standpoint of animation only, its great. However, content-wise, there is nothing too new or interesting here. This has been done before, in the form of stickdeath, which by the way, was much bloodier and more interesting than this. I dont wish to waste my time watching a guy roll down in hill a cart only to *gasp* crash at the bottom?!?! Who saw that one comming!??
And yes, I DID predict the outcome of the last clip. It was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that it was the last selection, and the character approached an obviously harmful object. Why? Because its BEEN DONE before.
Overall, the art is good, but the content is horrible. But, you can take comfort in knowing that this is vastly supeiror to "Boogeyman".
