I really enjoyed this, although some of it was confusing. Maybe a more thorough explanation of some of the codes would be nice but I still look forward to more tutorials from you. 5'd

The movie shows a lot of effort was put into the making, but it's just not that appealing. I've read many reviews and your responses and you seem to want to justify your boring movie with the fact that lots of effort was put into it, which is not the only thing that makes a great movie. You fire back and say that because this movie is 'late' or 'unoriginal' it should not effect the score or how one perceives it but this is not so. An idea can only be redone so many times before it becomes old and used up. You can only milk it so much to a certain extent and I think what you did here was milk a dry cow.
As said before me the hits and punches were too slow to be considered Matrix style and the big fancy moves were repeated too many times. You blame a lot of the repetition on the sprite set that you used which for some reason means it's not your fault? This is not true, you decided to use that sprite set and it's your job as the creator to make the movie interesting. Look at what Paul ter Voorde did with his limited sprite set of Mario and Luigi and he created a beautiful masterpeice which draws attention. You might argue that Mario sprites are easy to edit and create new ones, but that is your own fault for not choosing to use an easily edited sprite set.
Another one of my problems was, in fact, your use of sprites. The most famous recreation of this scene in flash was already a sprite movie, this only furthers the point of unoriginality in this movie.
The amount of effort shows in this movie such as your recoloring of the sprites and your syncing of the sound but it was not used in a way that keeps the educated viewer intereseted. Don't get me wrong, this movie works for the common Newgrounders but many experienced animators will be very offended that this scored such a high score. I myself am very appalled that this unoriginal sprite fest has scored a 4.20 but that's just my opinion.

Wow. You not only ripped on my movie but you ripped on 84% of Newgrounds users as well, all the while including yourself in that 16% of so-called educated viewers.
You seem to think that because you've submitted close to 40 animations to NG you have some knowledge that most don't. Wake up my friend, we all have a vote on this and when it all comes down, whatever score this receives is the one in deserves, plain and simple.

The content was great and the movies were funny I guess but I was very impressed by your voices. The South Park voices sounded just on the show, I thought you had used a sound clip from the show. gudjerb

I just saw the movie on youtube with no credit to the author so I figured it must be on Newgrounds. This movie is absolutely beautiful and incredible and to think how little exposure it got. the ending scene as it pans out of the window brought a tear to my eye at how beautiful it was. I really wish this had gotten more exposure, it's a crim to humanity.
Author's Response:
Nice of you to say that! :D
I thought did kind of get pulled down a bit too quickly from front page, but the point was that it did get there. Any many people faved it. Which is more than I could ever hope for :D
Thanks.

The animation and graphics were really bad, but the concept and comedy was good. Only suggestions is not to put a picture in the preloader, because it took a while to load the preloader before the bar came up, it was a bit confusing. Also, try to make them not as fat haha

i'm really impressed in the quality of these submissions, and the lunesta butterfly was a great way to open the collab. i really hope this doesn't go unnoticed
Author's Response:
Yeah, this is a REALLY big improvement from the last Super Collab. I hope it doesn't go unnoticed too. We spent a lot of time on this.
