I was asking because some of these smaller sites might be more likely to break a contract.

Probably, but every site starts out small so eventually, they will either fail or become a succesful big site. For a smaller site, make agreements, but never give your source files.

Dark Knight Review
It's great.

IMAX Review
In my humble opinion watching it in IMAX didn't add a whole lot to the film.

Have you ever considered becoming a full time film critic?

A good sponsor does not ask for any source files, they just ask you to put a few of their logos in your swf and pay you. If a sponsor asks you for your source file, deny it and find a good one. Here's a good example of a sponsorship agreement.

This is not always true, some sponsors offer what is called primary sponsorship, this calls for the game being sponsored, links back to their site, and ownsership over the source code most likely for them to create a seqaul themselves or to re-skin the game. It's a dieing type of sponsorship as far as I know, and I'm really against it personally, unless it's a smaller project that you'll never create a sequel to or something along those lines. The sponsorship should also be paying you a lot more for such a deal compared to an exclusive sponsorship.

Wha...Wha?! Did we watch the same movie?! Personally, I've never seen a movie with so much depth or clarity in my life, and I seriously hope more filmmakers take advantage of the IMAX format. IMAX film format uses 70 mm film as opposed to the regular 35 mm film so the higher resolution is incredibly noticeable - it even looks better downgraded to 35 mm too -

Trust me, I know about all the technicalities. The difference between both formats was barely noticeable, if at all. Sure it was a big-ass screen, but I couldn't say when we were watching a shot shot on IMAX film or regular film, neither could my 3 mates. I'm starting to think that maybe the theatre messed up, or watching HD-films spoiled me, I don't know. I wasn't that impressed by the visuals, and this was the first (partial) IMAX film I've ever seen.

It didn't matter though, because the movie was brilliant.

Live cam at the con

So I've been chilling on the cam for a bit at 5 AM eastern time, Luis and the guys are having a pretty decent time it seems for just lounging. I've some straddling, heard some interesting conversations, good times. You should all join in on the fun. I also feel very unloved, I apparently don't make myself well known enough around here hehe.

Yay I just came back from seeing the Dark Knight. I know countless posts were made about it but i feel special. I went there with great expectations about the movie from all the positive comments I read and those expectations were fufilled.

Okay, it's understandable that maybe your theater messed up because it should've been seriously noticeable when it changed to IMAX format. Namely, since it's 70 mm, it's a square format so it would've taken up the entire screen during those sequences and then changed back to the smaller widescreen during the 35 mm. And for the record, HD's got nothin' on the IMAX res.

The movie was incredible, that's just a fact, but watching it on the big screen is a whole hell of a lot better than watching it on a regular movie screen. Because everything else just feels...normal after you've seen it in IMAX.

If I'm coming off a like a big ol' dick, i'm not trying to, I'm just really interested in the whole IMAX format and the fact that Nolan was the first to use it in a regular feature film. Anybody who couldn't notice it, especially tech-minded people like us here at NG, just boggles my mind.

So, what is the most noobish thing you guys have ever done in flash (before you were where you are today)

Mine : I was trying to make some dots disappear over time so instead of using a shape tween, I made a square that had an alpha of 0 that matched the color of the backround and over 10 frames, I increased the alpha until I got to 100, and then made a blank keyframe.

lol

Well, I guess I found the problem then, because it didn't. I was wondering whether or not the screen format was going to change during playtime, because I knew IMAX was square and the regular format (probably 2,35:1) is widescreen. I thought it would be distracting. However, during the film the format never changed, it continually filled up the entire screen. I'm going to look into this...

RE: Dark Knight

Blah blah amazing fantastical astonishing. It really was great. We have an IMAX theatre here, but I saw it on a normal screen anyways (person I was with wasn't big on seeing it in the first place). IMAX movies are very cool though.

On a side note, at the theatre in the mall here (West Edmonton Mall, biggest in North America), above the concession stand in the middle is a giant red dragon. Every maybe 20-30 minutes, some music starts up and builds and gets louder, and then after a few minutes the dragon starts moving and then it breaths a big fireball. A real fireball. It was hot from a good 40-50 feet away. It is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

Well one of my flashes today (or someday) reached 4.01.

I'm so damn pissed off now.

Seriously wtf? My flash Mario Television, which is just another one of those random Robot Chicken wannabes flashes with a Mario theme. Just like the 100 others. And it's 4.01? I don't think it even deserves 3.6+, much less a 4.01..

To me this is very disappointing because I spent less than one day, ONE DAY, on a stupid little flash I made because I was bored and now it has the highest score out of all of my flashes.. ugh I mean I like the flash and all, it entertained me when I made it and it still makes me giggle (mostly inside jokes though) but seriously, 4.01? And it's also the flash with the most views and .. everything..

I dunno it's just frustrating that a stupid little flash like that can get a 4.01 while other flashes I labor over get 3.5 and below.. sigh :(

I guess what really matters is what you yourself appreciate in your flashes. We all know that Newgrounds is full of people who obsess over video game characters and there isn't much you can do about it.

It just goes to show, you can never choose your victories.

I'm back with a new sense of life and official mental problems! :D

Run down on my week.
-Girlfriend was did a bunch of drugs for her first time with my best friend and his group.
-Girlfriend then broke up with me. (First love... very painful)
-Partyed at hometown for a few days
-Went to a river party where 20 guys jumped and shit-kicked one other guy
-Did things I totally don't regret
-Came back

I still am pissed and upset 'bout losing my girl. We've been together since last Feburary, but hey life moves on and theirs plenty fish in the see. No chance that she's gonna come back so no point in cryin' over it everyday. This hicks going to shower for the first time this crazy week now and then starting tomorrow work, work, work, work, WORK!

ZOMG I don't know whether to thank you or tell you off for thinking I'm copying a style xD But still that makes me so proud :3

How long have you been working on it?

I think like 3 weeks? The enemies work and everything and the level looks very nice when the screen moves (layers :3), but you cant take damage and those are the only enemy types so far.
There will be much more than just town environments and random crusader dudes :) I PLAN IT TO BE UBER SEX!

:D thanks for the kind words
