[Fallen Angel Ep. 1 (Pt2)]

Awfully short, but is entertaining

The addition of direct action has made the flash much more entertaining. Unexpected twist at the end (and some dark humor) have also assited that. The series is to have a great future. If it is going to release episodes more often.

[Fallen Angel Ep. 1 (Pt1)]

Good production quality

Overall, the flash is very well made. The style used in it, have proved to be somewhat on enjoyment to look at. The lack of detailed human characters backs it up as well. While the story is a bit strange (it isn't legal for any more, unapproved countries to recieve nuclear weapon research information under the act of blah, blah, blah, M.A.D., etc), it fits for what it is. The atmosphere is well done as well. Although notible, are the overall lack in mentioning of death. Oh well, those can be fixed in farther episodes. Never the less, I look forward for episode 2 and 3, as well. I hope more things will be explained as time goes on.

[Waterlollies]

I just don't know what to say.

Please read this, before rating it down. This is my opinion, so please read through before taking any actions.

Hello. I have seen this flash movie much yearlier, but I have not been ble to produce my opinion on it, up until the end - the Golden Tank Awards. While I am happy what you have ecieved the first prize... it just... doesn't seem right.

Let's take a look at good aprts, first. The graphics are questioning the use of flash in production of the movie. The music is of the same quality. It is a beutifully produced movie, and certainly if this was the main part of entertainment. Sadly, the main part of the movie, the storytelling... that is another matter, entirely.

While the story makes sene on its basics... it just feels plain. It is like reading a folk storie without that voice, telling yuo what is happening. It feels plain and empty. That part brings the score down terribly. Yes, this might seem uinfair - but the main idea of entertainment is to bring out an idea, Waterlollies were only minimaly succesful on that part.

Thank you for reading this review. Good bye.

[How To Team Fortress 2]

Bonk!

Need a teleportrer here!

[Alex Seryoua: Episode I]

Well done, although a little bit of work added...

First things, first:Spoiler alert!

I like the movie quiet a bit. Although some loose ends are out there, and can be noticed somewhat easily. It is strange that she knows how to use her abilities and the lift, like contraption. Why haven't she released the rest of the prisoners? The animation seemes a bit jerky from time to time, although camera effects were worked on very well. But perhaps, such a secondary thing should not recieve such attention? Where would she go on, if she on the moon? Where is the rest of security personel? I liked the credits with Half-Life music and the way they were presented. I see you have worked for quiet some time, but do improve, and the series might become long running one. I am waiting for next episode.

P.S. Note the music when you submit flash - I believe those are the rules.

[2008| Meet the Pyro]

Victory!

You have created an interesting flash (although I think the next "meet the" will be about medic), and I myself wait for next "meet the" movie. The entrance of the pyro did not seem right to me (I think he should melt the door with flamethrower) - but is netherless a great intro. I like the title screen on the movie also. I was a bit surprised at first, as it never crossed my mind what pyro is spanish... but it does make sence - so you perhaps fortold the future of the character. The voice acting was great, although sometimes it seemed like he did not bother to say all of the words (though instead, emotional intonation was great). I do recomend you to work a little bit more on the characters hands - they seem a bit too blocky. The "intelegence" scene seems to explain pyro's role very well. The ending was also solid. Overall you have made a great movie - not much else there is to say. Perhaps you should make another one?

[C&C Shorts Trailer]

Hm... I don't know really...

You see... I believe what C&C games made by EA had adultirated (corrupted) the series. The video was well made, and the graphics we're also. The negative parts we're the use of Generals music (the original C&C had much better one - maybe Hell March would be good). And then... the "I dunno what screen are" part. Otherwie - it's a great video. 8/10, with -2 for generals music. Sorry about that. Keep up the good work.

[Command & Conquer TE]

Good Job Killerrate!

Beutiful! Great idea and execution. Great job at extracting and editing dawn's files. 7 months aren't that many for such a creation! I liked many parts (Harvester and McGyver being the best). Harvester part tells the cmplete truth... god damn those small maps... >_> anyway - good job! Waiting for next one.
