Yup. LXG in a nutshell alright.

Pretty creative parody. Personally, I liked LXG. It had a kind of reminiscent feel to it, especially when compared to "The Watchmen" (an old DC Comic Book Series from the 80s) which also happened to be written by the same person who wrote the story for LXG; Alan Moore. The animation and artwork fit the parody nicely. The voice acting was well done and quite funny, especially the voices for Allan Quartermaine, Captain Nemo and Dorian Gray. Good stuff all in all. FYI: the final music loop that played during the credits certainly was part of the song "Brackish", but it was written and performed by a band called Kittie (All female) and not some guy named Tom Haul. Just nitpicking. lol

Manowar: Kings Of Metal

"Brothers Of Metal" is a kickass song. As for the flash itself, not bad at all. I especially liked the part where Princess Peach did her guitar solo and how you made her change her finger positioning on the fretboard as well as her facial expression. Good stuff. All in all, not a pointless movie. I see it as a tribute to Nintendo and Manowar (albeit a.... different type of tribute). "Hail & Kill!!"

radioheadrule responds:

Did you hear that Manowar assumed responsibility for the US East Coast black out? Apparently over a decade of their power metal was behind the disturbance. The beautiful thing about this - is I'm not even making that up!

Yeah, I agree with ThridPage.....

lol this would be on OTHER associate who does the art work i guess its become a tradition for them to make fun of our movies lol. meet the art director of the team

From one Kittie Fan to another....

This is the first Flash that I have ever seen that was dedicated to Kittie. For that, you get props for even doing a Flash for "Brackish". The artwork was a bit on the dark side and the whole SD look (super deformed) would have fit better if I could have seen Morgan, Mercedes and Jennifer instead of their dark silhouettes. Now, for the actual song itself, "Brackish" was a good choice, but you should also consider that this particular song was off their major label debut album and not their follow up. In essence, for the era it was recorded for, either Fallon or Jeff should be included in the animation for accuracy's sake. (It's possible for Morgan to play guitar while singing Brackish, but it would be easier to have another guitarist do so. That's why you'd need to include either Jeff or Fallon) Overall, a decent flash. Needs to be a bit longer, especially since the song was so long. The quality of the song only matters if you want to vary the file size. Nice job.

PcGex responds:

now this is what i call some quality review. Thanks for the tips....

Very good effort. However....

..... why would you want to re-make something that's already been perfected from it's OVA form? I'm a big fan of the entire Gundam Universe, especially the pre Gundam Wing Era, but I feel that your time would be better spent working on an ORIGINAL Gundam Storyline/Flash as opposed to re-making something that's already flawless. You have some talent. I just dislike seeing talented animators produce un-original material. Overall, this Flash was nicely animated and it gave me the reminiscent feeling of watching the old F91 OAV, just to a much smaller scale. Now if you can only make some original animation with Gundam, that would be something to behold.

HaroFreak responds:

I believe you have NOT read it properly. It is a Tribute. All tributes are not-original because they are NOT supposed to be.

I honour "Gundam F-91", that is my reason for making this Flash Movie.

Judge by what it is as a stand-alone, not by comparing it to the work of a hundred experts (Theft is an exception when rating something, of course).

Funny for a bit.

Especially the part where the 'Tanned Dude' changes shape. Overall, not a bad Flash but I know with some work, you can do better. Also, what song/band is that right at the end of the movie? That was a killer song loop.

You put effort into it all while making it suck.

This video was pointless and without direction, but for some reason, it gave me a good laugh. The artwork was pretty bad, but on the upside, the animation was pretty decent and somewhat smooth. I also laughed at the intentional mis-spelling of "likwid snake" while showing a blue colored blob (which was probably supposed to resmble 'water'. lol). What really gave me the laughs were the constant usage of well timed sound effects coupled with the badly drawn visuals. Then came the part about the leg humping. Damn, this reminds me of that other pointless but funny Flash video on "Chu Chu Rocket". Did you make the artwork suck intentionally? If you did, you certainly got it down. Definitely not the best MGS video, but not the worst either.

CheeseWhiz128 responds:

Hey, thanks. You know, theres 2 things to this movie.
1) The drawings are suposed to look like ass (notice that all the characters looks change as the movie progresses)
and 2) It was entirely rushed as people might see.

I am actually kinda suprised by the ratings I got. I put it up before bed last night and I was like "This movie wont be there in the morning." well what do you konw?

Man, I remember that commercial.

I remember seeing that on TV waaaaaay back in 1988. But that song.... I NEVER forgot that song, especially those lyrics "higher and higher, fighting your way through the enemy fire!!!!". This was almost every kid's 'video game anthem' back when the NES was a hot system. Thanks for reminding me of my childhood man. The nostalgic look back into video game history is appreciated. Sorry, but you don't get high marks because all this seems to be is a simple movie file.

froggystomper responds:

simple is better... ok that was in the 80's but still dont you agree that it is better when simple

There will only be ONE Mr. Rogers....

I grew up watching his television programs. To this day, I've never forgotten about him. He truly was a legendary man who quite possibly was one of the nicest people in the world. It's too bad he had to pass away in that manner. :| Anyhow, for a Flash film, this is nothing more than a slideshow set to one of the most memorable songs ever written. I'm only giving you these middle marks for the fact that you dedicated a Flash film to Mr. Rogers. However, I'm rating this movie fairly based on the effort put into it and not the tribute message itself. For the Tribute aspect, I give you a hearty 10 but only 5 for the overall effort. You think I'm 'cold-hearted' for giving you an average score? Try thinking with an open mind instead of listening to what other reviewers have been saying. Anyway, Rest In Peace, Mr. Rogers. The Neighborhood will never be the same without you.

With a little work, this will definitely do well.

I like the idea of original storylines. I can see that you put a lot into the storyline as well as the overall production of this Flash film involving the legendary video games series "Metal Gear". Since it's a touchy subject for most hardcore gamers, they're really not going to be open to the fact that Solid Snake looks like an SD (Super Deformed) character in this film. However, with an interesting storyline to go along with, hopefully most MG Fans will look past the artwork issue and focus on the storyline. I can't wait to see what you've got in store next. (BTW, Is there a way to contact you? Perhaps you and I can collaborate on "MGS 1.5"? I could probably lend you a hand with the artwork and voice acting. Drop me an email or respond to this review. My email is available in my NG Profile. )

figma responds:
