[BRUTAL Shootout(complete)]

OK violence

Not too bad, graphics left something to be desired but they weren't horribly bad. There was plenty of violence, some comic, and there's a fair bit of action. It did need some structure and plot really, just a random collection of shooting doesn't cut it.

Interesting stuff

A surprisingly good FBF animation - lots of subtle comic moments, you may have to watch a couple of times to see everything. The music was well chosen and somehow makes it funnier. Worth watching, it's better than half the crap submitted daily.

[Amateur windmill.]

Erm...

It's a nice short animation, but that's all it is. As part of something bigger with more substance this might not have been bad, as it is it's over in two seconds and rather pointless.

[Hand of Dizoom!]

Wow!

It's a hand that moves a bit. Seems to work. No need to have submitted this to NG though.

[Link's Quest For Ass 2]

So much better than the first

This is so much better than the first LQfA - still excessive in the sickness, still parodies pretty much every video game in existence, and still hilarious. Longer than the first one, but it never gets dull or disinteresting. It's just a shame you have to put "to be continued" at what looks like a great point! A must see for any video game fan, though watch the first one before seeing this.

[Link's Quest For Ass]

Very funny stuff

Parodying everything humanly possible, this movie has more sick plot turns than something with a lot of sick plot turns. It's a crazy funny story, and if you like the Zelda series or video games in general you'll love this. A cool mix of 8 and 16 bit action, with tons of sexual innuendos. Superb.

[short skate series]

Not terrible

It's OK I guess. I didn't particularly like the graphical style in the main feature, but the bonus material looked good. Nice choice of music. Just about long enough to be worth a look if you like skate movies.

[8-bit Theater 3]

Easily the best of the series

Only bad thing I have to say is that it seems to finish at a poor point in the movie - finishing where you did didn't seem to make much sense. Apart from that, this is great - outtakes at the end were hilarious, and the movie was again funny throughout. A great movie.

[8-bit Theater 2]

Better than the first

The story carries on from the first 8BT and improves, with funnier scenes. If you liked the first, you'll like this one even more. Not much more to say other than this is one of the funniest series on NG.

[8-bit Theater 1]

Great comic sprite action

This is a rare thing - a sprite movie that's actually very funny. Any fan of the old 8-bit systems will enjoy this - mixing various different styles of humour into one great flash. Nice music at the end!
