[Speedball]

Random violence

As with sticklesson 1, the animation is great, but like that one it's too short, and here the violence is completely random and doesn't make a lot of sense. Not necessarily a bad thing though. Still better than a lot of things you'll see on NG.

[Sticklesson 1]

Short but funny stick movie

Animation was good, the premise is simple and there's only two things that happen, but it was still funny nevertheless. Better than average if short.

[The old TN episode 1]

Didn't think it was that funny

This one is OK, but I didn't think it was that special to be honest. The jokes were OK, but it was too short (rectified later in the series I see). Good graphics, but the sounds were a bit quiet and unclear.

[like a bird...]

Bit of sound would have helped

Nice cartoon, but it would have been helped with a little bit of sound, definitely. An odd effect here and there and some background music (Nelly Furtado would work here) would make this a lot better. Loved the style of drawing.

[Sweet Justice]

Not a bad stick story

Graphics and sounds were basic, but it has a lot of things that many movies don't, like length and a storyline. Wasn't massively exciting, but was good enough to get a five from me.

[Clay is better]

Poor tweening rubbish

Add some crap graphics, basic tweening, awful music and some religious shite, loop it forever and what do you get? This! It's terrible, don't watch it.

[Super fight #3]

Lengthy stick fight

The stick fight was longer than most, but it was a bit crappy and was rather random with the incredible recovery from nasty injuries and the weapons appearing from nowhere, plus the ending was sort of dumb. Not the best stick fight you'll see.

[Koopa's Collapse]

Cool spriteness!

Man, that was pretty dope. You've created a different slant on the whole Mario sprite idea, and made it look damned good! Like you, I hope it is the first from many. Couple of points - you might want to make the text at the bottom of the initial scenes a bit larger, it wasn't immediately obvious and I missed a couple of things, and you could do with increasing the volume a bit. But I can't fault the action - it's at the upper end of the sprite movies I've seen. Continue this!
