it was pretty good for a stick movie. add voices and make it longer and it can be a 4, maybe a 5

"YASF (yet another stick fight)"

Another stick fight, with a couple interesting moments, but very little new. In fact, there were only two things about the movie I enjoyed:

1. The animation was smooth. Better than a lot of stick fights I've blammed. That probably saved it.

2. The interaction with the camera at the end. You broke the 4th wall, good for you.

Some ways to make it better:
A little plot would be nice. Why are they fighting? What do they hope to gain by fighting? Why are there bombs?

Play with the camera. The whole things was shot like a side-scrolling video game, which is a really boring shot. Use zooms and pans. Heck, if you can pull off a pan *around* a character, that'd be fantastic. It's hard to make look good; try it. Mix things up a bit. Make it worth watching. Make it different.

Play with your explosions a bit more. Try rotoscoping? (Trace live footage of explosions to see how they work)

Looking forward to something with a bit more substance.

lol stuff like this always makes me laugh, coz its about the level of flash im at, and i still find it funny lol. little guys smacking each other up. great stuff. some sort of rock music tho, that woulda made it better, and i didnt like the flying thing, like teleportin...maybe a walk cycle, i dunno. but yeh, still liked the slappy-fight style of it

"Meh."

Short. Sound effects are gratingly loud compared to the BGM. Stick fights are boringly cliche and overdone.

^^Good Points^^
The strongest point of this flash was definitely the graphics. They FBF type of graphics and animation you used looked very nice and were very smooth. I also liked the explosions, they were pretty unique. The sound was also a strong point. Good background music and effects.

^^Needs Improving^^
Well, things like this are terribly overdone. You need something that will make this stand apart from other random violence movies. A nice plot would do a lot for this flash, plus try to add some length.

For such a small file size, I was surprised at how long and fun this was. There was a time were stick aniamtions were annoying, but people like you are helping restore thm. I think the characters could use some work, but the background looked really nice, apparently some more time spent could do a wonder. I like your use of sound effects, as they really seem to fit in well with the movie. Hopefully, this will become something even better in the future. Keep up the good work,

Ryan

"It was just ok."

This wasn't terrible. If you could make it a little longer and add some variety to this, it would be much cooler. Maybe add some better music, sound effects, and zooms. But overall it was nothing worth anything. Good try.

Well it was ok. Short and simple, with lots of action, but it would be much better with more detailed blood splatters, drawn scenery and sounds. Keep it going!
