hmm
I wonder if they react that way?
Reviews for "Doug's NG Quest for Power"
Nice piece of work, this one
Thank you for an interesting flash today. The urban setting was quite nice, it was orderly but not bleak. I loved how the few seconds of stick-man flash that you inserted is more complex than a lot of the complete stick man entries, and it didn't loop :). It was nicely animated, so was the site, and the "reviews" looked like real sentences, I didn't have time to read much of them, though. The enraged hunting was funny. Nice work, and good luck with your future flash.
A solid animation
I enjoyed it. You did a good job in particular on the soundtrack and the pacing, but you could improve some of the drawing (like the wide shot of the city). When he's writing the reviews, it should show his username instead of yours. :)
I feel bad for those poor bears though.
good movie.
the animation was smooth the plot good but the only downside was there was no voice over. the best way to make this better would to remove the background music when the actuall plot starts with doug and then start using a voice over and more soundaffects.
keep up the good work
4/5

At the beginning I actually tried out a voice over but decided to leave it out because of how much I stink at voice overs.
Breakdown....
Usually, when I vote well on an excellent flash like this, I write a review saying "FUCKING AWESOME!", and leave it at that. But, for a movie this good - especially since you said that it was your first "true" attempt to pass, I decided to break it down for you:
Graphics: 8/10
Pretty self-explanatory there. Just overall nice graphics with nice animation flow.
Sound: 9/10
Also, self-explanatory. Pulse Ultra owns!
Interactivity: 9/10
Now, I know, it's a flash movie, generally, physically speaking, no interaction. But, when the movie played, I imagined myself as an average NG user, just as Doug, inspired to make flash. I put myself in his shoes, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, who feels that they could put themselves in the movie and make it work.
Humor: 10/10
Total ownage at the end!
Other: 10/10
A movie about Newgrounds, for Newgrounds, shows dedication to work. If I was to submit a flash, I would definate do a tribute, parody, etc.. The flow was nice, the plot was great, and it's overall just one of those flashes that has it all. I'm sure it won't get anything like a "Daily 1st Place" or anything, but I wouldn't be surprised to sed an "Underdog of the Week", or perhaps a "Review Crew Pick". I'm sure Newgrounds audiences will accpet it as an excellent flash.
Now, you'll take some heat from fuckers who will say, "WTF?! What a fucking nerd, has to feel important by moving his way to the top!" But you'll also inspire and motivate users to be the best Newgrounder they can be. Take it all in stride, and, like SMC90 said: SEQUEL! 5/5 and a 10/10!
