Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

UPDATE: MADE A FEW EDITS got rid of excess slow-mo, and someone ( I forgot) told me that Show No Tears was the better song so took out Devil's Dance! For those of you who keep saying Sonic cant fly, think of it this way, he is moving so fast gravity cant keep up. And in the game Sonic and Black KNight Shadow can use blast without emeralds, in fact there are no emeralds in that game but shadow fights like Vegeta with a sword.

HOLY CRAP an AWARD?

EDIT: There a lot of things I could improve on I think what most people are saying it that it is good at individual scenes but they dont necessarily flow together, and too many slo-mos. Other than that I think I did so so, since I haven't use flash in like 4 years still stuck in AS2 but for this I learned some AS3. Sorry for the lag since some people don't have Flash player 10, because I had some 3d layers so I couldn't make it FP 9 Sorry.

This is just flash practice, I do plan on doing some real animations that are drawn. Why should I waste time drawing everything just to practice cinematography and motion and action sequencing. Just like drawing, if you know how to draw accurate proportions but need to work on rendering, waste time drawing, when you can borrow line art to just work on rendering skills.

Okay so this is a long way from Super Sonic Warriors. Sonic Adventure Z has been canceled, I wanted to do it but buy the time I got flash all of my custom sprites and storyboards were gone on an old computer. I thought why not do just a battle, after all that is what most people enjoy in a sprite flash now a days, mindless violence. ^^ ENJOY!

P.S.
Im to lazy to edit to the credits so for music, thank the NG Audio Portal. Furthermore, the names of the non NG portal songs in order are: Knight of the Wind (Sonic and the Black Knight), Training (Track 07: Best of DBZ Trunks Compendium) and Metal Ridley Boss Battle Theme (Metroid/ SSB Brawl)

3 D !!!!!!!!!!!!!

ITS IN 3D !!!!!!!!! AWSOME and i thorght i was good oh and PLEAS PLEAS PLEAS PLEASSSS TRY AND TURN IT INTO A GAME. :)

Other than that...

Some of the action sequences really were a bit repetitive, but other than that I'd say you did a great job.

Not bad

I enjoyed watching it,but it wasn't THAT good. I mean, it was good, but it wasn't ace. But anyway good choice of music,but anyway,I enjoyed the fight.
Good animation,but I think you should improve a little bit.But if you want to improve,the guy below my reveiw gave you pretty good advice.
Anyway good job. Enough to earn you 8 stars.I'm not gonna be harsh.
:3

try hard more =.=

the animation like Dragon ball =.=

Pretty good...for what it is.

I was originally going to give this movie a much lower score, but then I read your comments and realized your true motivation for making this.

As an exercise for directing action sequences, it works pretty well. As a story, however, it's dreadful. I get it, it's a sprite movie and I'm fine with that. But that doesn't mean it doesn't require even a LITTLE bit of setup. Again, I know this was a sort of training exercise, so its forgivable.

Your action sequences were well edited, although a bit repetitive at times (sonic and shadow lunging toward eachother, time slows down, then burst into next sequence).

I'll give you some advice for your next flash if you're going to animate it yourself. You can make the most beautiful well animated/edited action sequences in the world, but no one is going to care about them if they don't know why their occurring.

All in all, it's a fantastic action sequence, especially for a sprite. But that's all it is.
