Reviews for The Way of the Sword?

I was a bit surpised

I'll be honest, as soon as I saw the words Mario, Sprite, and short, I was looking for the blam button before the movie even started.

Fortunately Newgrounds doesn't let you push zero until you've had the movie up for a while, and the movie wasn't as bad as 90% of the sprite junk that never makes it past the review. In order to help save projects like this from a blam, I would suggest putting a picture thumbnail up, and giving it a title something a little more creative than My Mario Sprite Short, so people will know it's more than some 6 year old kid making a 5 second flash during school lunch.

My tips for improving future movies, add sound effects, try to make more of a concrete plot, and avoid overuse of gags like the old man from Zelda hanging from the wall.

Yes, yes!

Please do continue! I like watching flashes like this. =D
About the music problem, I think I saw something about it in the flash tutorial "Ultimate Tutorial 2". You should go and check that. XD

Fix it an resubmit

This would have been protect-able except for a few things.
1. Please don't say "Don't blam it and I can fix it." Fix it, THEN upload it.
2. Your animation style is rather jerky in parts, especially when it's Mario vs. Lakitu. Try to smooth that out a bit if you can.
3. "To be continued" on such a short short?
4. Stream the audio, don't put in the entire mp3.

Fix these, and it'd definately vote to save it instead of blam it. There's a lot of potential here.

erMaikel responds:

Thanks, thats what i need: advices ^^. Really. I know i have done a lot of mistakes but i will fix they quickly.

erMaikel responds:
