Terrific

Another brilliant piece, and while I wasn't a fan of the narration at the start, it was a great idea by the end. I can't wait to see more.

Perhaps it is the length of time you did it in, but the animation wasn't up to your usual level. By Newgrounds standard, of course, it is still above and beyond most anything else, but compared to previous work of your own, it wasn't as smooth and well done. Just a few thoughts. Regardless, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks :)

Really enjoyed this

I thought it was really well done, and kudos for going beyond the storyboard your class required. I liked the different attempts at getting the soda out of the machine (especially the failed jump kick) but the ending was a little bit predictable, so maybe next time something unexpected could happen instead of what everyone was kind of waiting for. Great start and keep at it! :)

Amazing work

This is one of the best productions I've seen on Newgrounds, and I've been around here a while. You've got a great talent for this sort of things, so nice job. The only part that I didn't particularly enjoy was the odd scene between Larry and the dismembered head of his father. That... well, it kind of made the character less likable. I didn't care about him as much after that, which is something you should always shoot for in a story. I'll be honest, I think you should take that out. Or switch it to some other character.

Great job overall.

i knew it'd be on the limits of where i should go but ya know, i decided i'm doing this for fun and if i enjoy it a few people out there wont mind it. Ofcourse its not a true reflection of his character, but you know what, its a cartoon, people will get over it eventually.

you are right though. i dont regret it in the end, just because, well... who cares, lol! thanks for your review. i appreciate it!

Very nice start!

I liked it a lot. A few suggestions: Work on the pacing. The opening was a little too slow-paced. It's okay to make it long, but the pauses in between characters talking needed shortened. Also, as someone said before, change up the characters a bit more. They look too similar.

Overall VERY well done, I can't wait to see more.

It was okay

Much better than a lot of what goes through this site, but still not the greatest. That's okay though, as you said, you wanted feedback from it. Your sound quality needs upped, because it's too fuzzy. The animation worked alright, but (obviously) it's the style of the Awesome series, and compared to that (which you have to do, since it's based on it) it isn't as good. If this were an original piece not based on the Awesome series, I would say it was much better. It's only the direct comparison that has it lacking. Good luck in the future! :)

Galneda responds:

Ahhh, so by affiliating myself with an entire sub-genre of animations, which are in higher quality, it denounces the individual quality of my own simply by comparison?

Whereas, standalone, not affiliated with any particular type of animation, but just bluntly a "parody" the quality of the flash would've had a much higher vote?

Or was it doomed to begin with, because "Awesome sauce" or no "Awesome Sauce" it's still a parody on a video game that's not mine, therefore unoriginal? Voiding any original content I provided to an unoriginal sub-genre?

....Ahhh, I won't rack my brain on it that hard. Thanks for the review!

Brilliant

THIS is why I come to Newgrounds. Amazing, kudos to you good sir.

*clap*

Random, and funny to boot!

I liked it. The art and everything was pretty random, but it was well done random, not like SOME things you find on Newgrounds. Keep at it!

Magnadooodle responds:

:D!!

Good job!

I liked it. Some parts repeated a few too many times, but overall the art and animation worked for the song. And the song is awesome, of course. :)

The part with the guy's head spinning freaked me out. That's some look he's got there... His drooling on the bench made me laugh.

Magnadooodle responds:

Thank you so much! I love the feedback, 'specially from you JKR!

Wonderfully done

The whole thing clearly had a ton of effort put into it, and told a great story. I had just been listening to the tale of Samson on the radio the other day, so it was awesome to see it in animated form as well. Nice work! Judges is a weird book, huh? Really different than the later ones, that's for sure...

:)

Awesome effects...

... but it's another stick man fight! I'm just so tired of them, I'm sorry. So clearly this wasn't for me. But you have some really great talent at effects, because they were really cool. So I'd keep at it, but maybe steer AWAY from pointless stick men? I mean, you could do so much more with your incredible style...

I co-Author Animator Island, a site specifically for animators with weekly updates, tips, and tricks. Hope to see you there!
