[[2010] REBOOT 11]

its about time

first got into the series when part ten came out, then watched the entire series and have been waiting for it to pick up again. i didnt expect two years. please have them a little closer. i cna understand a few months (6 or so) but two years is a little while considering part ten was 18 minutes and made in 4 months.

[School 13 - TongueTied]

like always

i have decided that you are my favorite newgrounds animator. there hasnt been one flash of yours i didnt like and they are always of top quality. they have pretty good art work, good sound and music, as well as a good story that is either relatable to my life or to me in general.

now sure these things cant be said for every one but for me they can. it was simple, interesting and slightly predictable in a corny romantic sort of way. It showed what it needed to show and didnt over stay its welcome and the extra ending was funny.

it makes me wonder though what prompted this animation. did something in your life happen recently or was it just the time of year?

[S13 - I Want It! Syndrome]

another great one

i have liked all of your school 13 episodes because they bring an ubserd realism to everthing a ttenager is most likley thinking about or going through. your art style is fluid and welll exicuted giving u a unique style and allows you to stand out among many of the other quality flashes. your music choice as well as slight nods to video games also bring about a great joy allowing the viewer to know what kinda poerson is makeing these movies. really i can go on about all the good things about your animation but it was all just spot on. i even like that its in russian, it gives u a sense that every one every where goes through this type of stuff and i cant even tell if the voice acting is good so i just assume it is so thats a plus. :P

Thanks, i like to bring up realism, though it's hard to find a right thing to show

[An Unfortunate Girl:Lapse]

good but ....

as stated by others this didnt seem all its own and really seemed to take artistic direction from other films in this genre { i guess thats what these weird films should have}. the story was rather interesting though , and the lack of information realy has u wanting to know what happens, and what her illness is and all these other questions. good job though. i am amazed at how u got that windmill to look 3d though.

[Brain Food]

the idea was good but not really put together

i kind of understand what you were trying to communicate but you seemed to be lacking sense in some cases so it didnt seem coherent and at times i thought the idea wasnt even there. seemed like you were trying to be a little strange or out there in some parts by putting in random subtopics. this is all im going to say on the actual "story" though.

the graphics well... lets be honest werent up to par with some of the other flash's on here but kept a style throughought the entire move so they served their purpose to that extent. however like another reviewer said i think there could have been more frames in it to make it not so pupet like or linear.

the sound got anoying after awhile and seemed to loose emphisis every time it repeated. really i dont know what could make this better unless you took out the music and made it very quite so it still fit the mood and gave it a sense of awkwardness and kept questioning the situation.

the main char getting his hand cut in half reminded me of pans lybrinth but still felt its own in this animation and seemed strange at the same time because its not a common sequence in any genre that i know. hands being cut off are but being cut in half isnt as common but still not unheard of.

i did like that you had the two man playing with xbox controllers however. i didnt know that xbox had a game like that. [ im not a big fan of xbox, but im not a hater either im just saying that im not obsessed with them and im not a fanboy for or against them] see i think this is funny because in the last generation of game console the big system was ps2 and its controllers were used in advertising when people where playing video games but now it seems xbox took its place... although ps3 is poping up more and more.

[The Greatest Idea Ever!]

good if not overly corny

at first galnce u cant really place where youve sen the red haired sientist before but after awhile i found out where dexter ended up. [ hence the dexter doll on his night stand, and for those of you that dont know there was a show about a red head scientist kid named dexter aand the show was called dexters labatory]

on to the flash however

i thought the choice to do it in an old cartoon over the top type of style was a good choice for this topic, it fit the subject well in the sence that its not uncommon to see cartoon science programs in this style. the jokes in it were predictable at times and not laugh out loud funny through the entire thing [ most flash's never make me laugh] but they fit and had a charm to them that didnt annoy me.

the plot was decent enough and the voice acting was pretty good but most of the actual flash wasnt that big of an essence.... i mean nothing really failed but nothing was amazing. the quality was above average though . really, there are no complaints here and the ending was quite funny , of course he did it for the lulz.... only every one died and no one laughed so he got no lulz.

[The Homeless Vagabond]

i liked it however it was nothing new

ok first of i want to say i did like this animation along with the music, they blended together wonderfully and the whole thing together was flawless. its no wonder u won. but my only complaint is that ... the story has been done before in more moving ways in my opinion. now the story is simple and its wonderful at the same time its just, well even on newgrounds theres other flash's with a simliar if not identical story. i do like the story though, dont get me wrong, but u loose originality points.

[School 13 - Street Magic]

i agree a little with the previous reviewer

see i think in the first school 13 alot of gamers could really relate to the life style this guy was living and that seeing it interpreted the way it was gave it a certain flare that is missing in the newer instalments because we arnt even getting a glimpse of his obsesion.

this however was good at first, it lost me when u killed the joke however, see after he started doing simple every day tricks ... well a few were reasonable but then when he broke his leg of it just seemed over done. i did however like the ending where the magician gets hit by the plaine. i for one was expecting that. i do wish however that i knew what the man says at the end, the one standing on the plaine...

over all though the flash was good as are all the school 13 flash's

Nightwayfarer responds:

Thank's for such a great review)
The think with the guy terring off his legg is simple. It's just that in the russian translation of the david blaine spoofs the translator made up some of the phrases. The best one was "V ROT MNE NOGI" which means Leggs in my mouth. It is now a part of our slang.
Though in the spoof (if you saw it) the characters didn't try to put leggs in their mouths, i decided to make that happen)
And at the end that phraze "Zaoza" means... well... zaoza... it's the name of that black french (if you saw the spoofs) guy.... I guess you hadn't seen them... find them on youtube, they are awsm)

[Dog Of Man]

good as awlays

i didnt even realize this was yours until the very end and then im like "oh its firths stuff, that makes sense"

[Jerry]

brilliance

possibly the best flash on newgrounds
