GREAT TWIST!

Honestly didn't see it coming at all. Great work!

You've done very well for 3 weeks bro. One thing I'd like to see is more movement is single shorts, it's great you animated little snip-its and loops fro every angle, but a scene that lasts more than 3 seconds would be a real test of animation and make it that much more enjoyable. Top efforts!

Hilarious

Just comical gold. I'm glad you showed them who the boss was because you know what I hate it when they miss the best animator in the world.

Yours also was so much better animated, that stick scene was just gold. Keep up the good animation skills Max.

Damn!! :(

SO MUCH POTENTIAL!!! The greatest and most powerful tool in animation is your timing. The 'back flip kick' was totally unnecessary, more so there was no sound or emotion. That was you main punch line so next time something like that happens do this:

"Justin Beiber"
*guy gets immediate angry face* half a second later punches the friend*
*Dragon Ball Z power sound* or something

Of coarse this is only a suggestion. You're going to have to make up your own god damn mind if you're going to accept what I have to tell you or not. :)

Good luck in future productions man!

Blakant responds:

thanks for the good suggestion, we'll try to dig out more idea & execution it much btter next time :D

You made me play Minecraft

And thanks I spent around 10+ hours building something that someone else destroyed and about 15+ hours building my own server for the bloody game.

Tom should be stoked you've done this to several others instead of them spending their time productively making Flash Movies.

Nah much funnier after you know what minecraft is. Good shit mate! :)

It's good to have you back!

Mate! Brilliant work, you keep excelling at what you're good at and you even give me inspiration to continue Killing Spree 7! So I might go ahead and do that now...

But first brilliant graphics, Sound, Animation and Story. I'm very intrigued to what you pull this out to be!

I look forward to hearing from you soon man, we have a lot to catch up on.

Glad to hear I inspire you man ^^

Just got better.

Was worried at the start, it looked 'O.K' at the VERY start, good introduction to the whole escapade though when he started at the work site I was a little worried, though pursued watching and I'm glad I did, you got some real nice animation/angles in there that are never easy especially when using stick... Trust me I should know.

My favorite overall is you weren't afraid or too lazy to animate those extra pasts after "the end?" and after the credits.

I'm voting 5 on this, wish I had of noticed it sooner... Looking out for more of your stuff. :)

SupraNova responds:

Thank you man. You were a huge inspiration for this and your comment is much appreciated!

To be honest

The discrete sexual actions was obvious. That may be half the reason people haven't mentioned it.

More importantly the art style was so amazing. Honestly I was zoomed in looking at your attention to detail mostly throughout this film. The smoothness between frames, the proportions... You were right on the money with this animation, I wish it had more to it though...

I look VERY forward to seeing more stuff from you in this new art style. Beautiful work.

Loved it.

Out of all the Girlchans, I actually enjoyed this first time round. Normally it takes me 3-4 watches before I start to get a giggle out of it.

MY only upset is that stories are being abandoned left, right and center. But maybe that's a part of the deal. I especially enjoyed the voice actor conversation mid movie.

Great work Arin, and Joshua. Looking forward to that game I've heard so much about through your tweets.

Wasn't too bad

Music and Ideas were great, as some have already mentioned the voice acting was bad.

Obviously English isn't their native tongue as the timing and expression of the voices were TOTALLY off.

There are so many voice actors available on NewGrounds that will gladly help you out for FREE and their actually really good! Go here to advertise for your voice actor: www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/816629

They will contact you and help you out.

I hope you consider this for ch.2!

Good luck!

thanks for the info, we will keep that in mind, the link will definitively come handy in the future.

thanks again

I felt like I had to review this.

Several things bothered me about this animation, but I'll start with the positives!

The idea is actually quite interesting I love the twist on the typical stylization of the stick figure world and if you've got something funny planned to follow you defiantly
should endure that and complete the series.

Having said that it sores me to say that I know a rough 20 stick animators that could not only out 'animate' you but also out 'draw' you. There is obviously the cliché' stick animations out there, but that's not blamed upon the stick figures it's blamed on the young flash artists that start out and don't know what animation and story telling is all about. And most come to realise it in the following years, if they stick to it.

My point is that moving/animating a stick figure is possibly the BEST way to improve your animation and timing. All throughout your animation you tweened your characters and even made fun of yourself for it. I've gone and checked your other animations and they're exactly the same. There's nothing wrong with tweening it's in there for a reason but the best part about STICK FIGURES is if animated properly (Frame-By-Frame) It'll look 100 times better than your flash we've all just watched.

You're short cutting your art work the background have no lighting and the colours are very dull.

Don't think I'm being a prick because it's not my intention. Basically in the Animation world you'll come across a lot of Constructive Criticism (some good and some bad).

The thing that annoys me is it looks like you're not pushing yourself you have over 60 animations submitted to Newgrounds in over 3 years but your progress and skill levels aren't advancing.

Take your time on the characters (it's not like you draw them more than once)
Take time on your backgrounds (same deal)

If you do take the things I've mentioned into consideration then you might actually get something better than a 4th best animation submitted for that day.

Good luck!

Khris responds:

i thank you for theking the time to review this movie, i certainly do not think that you are a prick, but i'm going to tell you a few facts about this movie.

-i started this about 1 year ago, and just finished it about a week ago
-the main point i was trying to get out is that sticks can be so much more than just tools for fighting

i'm going to take your review and study it carefully, and hopefully in about 2-3 months you will see a better 'not another stick movie'
