A good start.

Though this isn't anything new or groundbreaking, it's a really good starting point. Most FBF animations are either really poorly animated stick fights (or something similar), or just simple lines going around the screen in fancy colors and such.

What I always look for in a flash is some sort of plot. Sure, random creativity is fun, but there always has to be something more than just a fancy animation. Of course, it's not an absolute necessity, but it can easily make an animation so much better.

I'm saying this now because FBF flashes are very common on Newgrounds. To make something really good in FBF now, you need more than just cool animations and morphing from a stick to a flower and on to a butterfly. Flashes like these are okay, but if you add a plot, you'll open yourself to a whole new world of animations.

I can see you've got some skill when it comes to drawing, and you should use this. Familiarize yourself with whatever program it is you're using to make flash movies, and learn more about it. Combine knowledge with your artistic skill, and you've got something neat.

Review:

Animation and Graphics
Seriously, your style is probably the best I've seen on Newgrounds. Your flowing animations and great drawings makes it look absolutely incredible. The colors you use in your animations are soothing, not screaming at you, and makes it all look dream-like, but realistic at the same time.

Audio
Is there anything to say here? Sound effects and ambient music is great and makes the whole animation a bit more immersive.

Story and Concept
It's Brackenwood! It didn't even need a great story, thanks to the graphics, and vice-versa, but you've got it all right here. A story that keeps you wanting more, with character backgrounds and a great plot.

Conclusion
I love Brackenwood.

Oh my

It's great to see you guys back. Thought I'd never see a new Dailytoon ever again.

Review:

Animation and Graphics
Sprites have, over time, become the new sticks. Everyone thinks they can do it, but few can. This is an okay attempt, but not great.

Audio
Could really do with some voices and SFX, but the music was actually pretty good.

Story and Concept
A little flat. And by that I mean, it's a little simple, a little boring. Not a lot happening, no twists, no surprises. It's a decent plot, but not of great or good quality.

Conclusion
I'd like to say that there is potential here. This seems like some sort of sketch for a movie. There is a lot too be done, but the basics are here, and it really mostly needs some fine-tuning.

Nice... loop.

===============
Score: 2 / 10
Summary: Nice... loop
Review:

Graphics/Animation:
Huh. Was expecting live action.
So, sprites. Not a bad medium. You did good. If this was a gif. It's way too short, and barely anything happens. No bullets seem to hit the zombie-ish characters, no blood, and it all just looped. At least the sprites were animated smoothly.

Story/Plot:
Quick lil' loop. No real plot nor story.

Audio:
AWESOME MUSIC. But no SFX, which was not as cool.

Conclusion:
Hey, it's a CD09 flash. What can I say?
And, where the hell is FaggotFro, or FroFaggot?

It's not a loop. Takes a trained eye to catch that.

Incredible!

Score: 10 / 10
Summary: Amazing
Review: I'm always amazed when I find a masterpiece still under judgement, and this is no exception.

This will go straight into the top 50, and I'm amazed if it doesn't hit the #1 by next week. It's THAT amazing.

Graphics/Animation
There's not much to stay here. The drawings are made out to look simple, with few intricate shapes, but it still looks amazing. The robots really look like robots, and the slaves look simpler than all of the others. I love the detail that's put into the close-up of the gun, the smoke, and in general, oof everything. It looks amazing. The colors fit perfectly with the mood, I especially like the black/white parts in the chase with tarboy. It's nice how we never see more o tarboy than his black being, and his mouth at times.
Animations were smooth and greatly done. It coould just as well have been live action, that's how good it was.

Plot/Story
Tarboy? A boy made out of tar and the memory chips of a million slaves? Seriously, how did you come up with that? If someone told me about a movie about a boy made out of tar and the memory chips of a million robot slaves, I'd laugh, but this is great. The eager dad/granddad telling the story to his son/grandsno, and the slightly surprise ending, it's great. It's a great way of telling the story. The story itself is absolutely incredible as well, I love it. It's new, and it's well-made.

Sound
One of the best soundtracks I've heard set to a flash. Hania really shows talent here. The music fits extremely well to every scene it's put in, and there's nothing to complain about.

Conclusion
I rarely review stuff that isn't requested at the Review Request Club, mainly because I can't find the time. I can barely finish the weekly requests over there. This time, however, I felt like I had to do it. It's just that incredible. You've done a great job here, and it's a piece you can be proud of.

Score: 5 / 10
Summary: Decent practice
Review: I have to admit that I let out a "Hah!" at the end of the movie.

Graphics and animation
Simple graphics, but they worked. The animations weren't bad, not bad at all. There wasn't too much of it, though. I loved that you did it all by FBF. The tongue wasn't very well animated, but that's nitpicking. Might wanna do something about the bird, too. Looks like it's got strings attached. Also, simple backgrounds. Not a big minus, but might want to do something about it.

Story/Plot
Well, there's not much of this here, but there's a little, and it's not very bad. It's really random. What you could do, is, make this a regular character, and make a series out of this. Random shorts that have him do stuff like this.
Also, childish, but funny!

Audio
Very little, and the audio was out of synch with the tongue. Didn't fit very well, you should do something about that.

Conclusion
It's a nice practice, and I most definitely see some potential here. Don't give up!

Thanks alot... about the FBF, i think that will be the way ill do it from now one, simply because it requeres more of me thinking abot the animation and direction...

audio, yea i know... ill try to get some more sound in my work, but must admit its animating all try go (well not master but...) be better at first...

Simpliceaty... well... i do want to keep it simple. but you migth be rigth, a litle more detail migth not hurt....

Funny lil music video!

===============
Score: 9 / 10
Summary: Funny lil music video!
Review: Ah, this is a great little piece, smooth animations and a funny song!

Graphics/Animation
I have pretty much nothing to say here. It's simple, but it fits to the movie. Some lip-sync errors, but the animations were flawless, as far as I can tell.

Story
Well, it's based of a song with a fun story, so I've nothing to say here either.

Audio
Again, not much to say. A great, fun song!

Conclusion
Nice little short, but it might be a little too short. One barely gets the time to start laughing before it's over.

Thank B for Clock Day.

Summary: Thank B for Clock Day.
Review: This is not good enough. At all. Had it not been for clock day, this wouldn't have passed.

It's hard to review, as everything went so fast. Slow it down! As far as I can tell, the stickmen were simple, and the animations were horrible.

You should try to make it longer, add more frames, slow it down, draw something better, and animate it. use tweens if you have to, but preferable, fbf.
