[Carnage of the Bells]

Awesome

Very well made, you're really inspirational to people like me who are getting out of the whole Madness scene and branching out. I highly admire your ability to finish projects, but before I go on and on about that shit, I'll talk about the movie.
The movie was fucking cool, many stylish elements to it, it was entertaining, humorous at points, and very well done. The art style and color scheme you used was definitely fitting and perfect, however, I would have suggested just a tiny bit more effort with finding some better sound effects to work with. Other than that, great toon.

Alpha-Nuva responds:

totally do your own thing. madness is pointless unless it's for moneys.

[Madness: Ascend]

So-so

Eh, not bad, but it does have some flaws. First and foremost, I'd like to point out the thing that struck me the most and made me feel like I was going insane and didn't even want to even finish the movie- the annoying ass sound effects. They caused a great deal of static which annoyed the hell out of me. This can simply be fixed by going into the sound properties of each sound (clicking the edit button on the bottom properties panel when on a frame where a sound is) and moving the sliders on both channels from the very tip top, a bit down. This gets rid of that annoying static that made me want to shove a cordless drill into my ears.

Second off, the animation its self. It was very smooth, but smoothness is not always good. The movements and the animation was not realistic at all. It was obviously tweened, which is not really the best idea for a Madness toon unless you're really good at it (Engan and some of the older Madness animators). I would have suggested FBF. The art style of the movie, I liked. For the most part, it was good, mainly due to the fact that I really like the "outline-less" styles.

There wasn't too much memorable about the movie, though. The only thing memorable about it is the ending, which was pretty well made, combined with the music. However, I am really pretty sure that there is a message behind this. However, I simply cannot decipher that message. I've tried thinking about it multiple times, but I really have no clue. It might have been better if you made it just a little more apparent to the audience.

Overall, not bad movie, but it has a story that doesn't exactly come off as "apparent", has annoying sounds, and isn't too memorable. But at least it was still pretty entertaining, and I definitely don't regret watching it.

Pegosho responds:

Yeah, I agree with you about the sound, I wish I had some one that adds all the sound effects for me, it's always a pain. But yeah, I think I might do a final update with all the sounds fixed. Sorry for shoving a "cordless drill" into your ears. :P

About the tweening, I just wanted to give it that Madness feeling people enjoy plus it's hell of a lot easier to animate if you are gonna make a 5 minute long flash.

The ending's message is to love trees and smoke weed. I thought it was quite obvious haha. ;)

But I'm glad you liked it even with the flaws. Thanks for your honest critique, they are always welcome.

[One Big Morphing Orgasm]

Fantastic

Pretty damn great collab you've got here. Tons of creativity, and for the most part, the animation was smooth and mesmerizing. However, some of the morphs seemed a bit choppy, and kinda disrupted the flow a bit. Regardless, definitely a good movie. Perfect music choice, too.

TheBoogley responds:

yeah, it's a mixed bag, but I think that comes with collaborative projects, you've gotta give people a chance and cut them some slack if they're trying something they've never done before. :)

[FRUIT]

Thank you

Because of this cartoon, I really got into Tom Waits music.

As usual with your clock day submissions, this movie is pretty damn stylish. Your art style is simple, yet definitely admirable. I love your creativity with the whole "clock" universe, and all the places you go with it. Very good movie.

Munglai responds:

Getting someone into Tom Waits is an achievement I can be proud of.

[Madness Aggresive]

Ear rape.

You know what, it was very hard to watch this. Why? Because of the constant ear rape. The static gets louder and louder, and mixed with other sounds, it just drove me fucking insane. If you want your movie to be watched, at least properly edit the sound so that it doesnt drive people insane throughout the whole movie.

Other than the ear rape, the movie was honestly pretty bad. The movements were stiff, the story was completely absent, I had no clue what was really going on. Was this a trailer? Either way, it wasn't really entertaining. You seem to have the movements down, but you need to work on how you execute them. And try to have a story next time, something that would stand out even the slightest bit.

Deimos2142 responds:

you teachin me:
1.dont add static sound
2.learn the movement
3.storyline

-there is a problem i dont have an idea for storyline or a series...

[Madness Diverse]

No shit, Dast has spam animations.

As if spam animations were even meant to be taken seriously as movies. As if they even had effort put into them at all.

I don't even really want to review this. I never did. I watched it one time and made jokes to friends about how the name of the collab, "Madness Diverse" was a complete lie.

It's not diverse at all. It's the same shit we've seen over and over again really. The only thing that makes it even slightly diverse is the use of different characters that MIGHT have possibly been drawn by the people who actually made the movies :O :O :O :O

no but really. Not diverse at all. I stopped caring about the quality of madness animations long ago, now, after thousands of madness animations, the only thing that makes them good is originality, and this is what this severely lacks.

Also you lied to me, with the title, so minus even more points.

you guys have the skill, but maybe if you put a little creativity or imagination into it, it might actually be "diverse"

XXBlinx responds:

i see what you mean but some of the parts in this collab were "diverse". Both of missingusernames parts were diverse, my second part was diverse, both of xroadkillx parts were diverse and oneegg's part was diverse. So you cant say the collab wasn't diverse
