"At a Loss for Words..."

submission: Mario Brothers - Part V

date: July 4, 2006

I have been waiting for the conclusion to this series for a very long time. The story wrapped up nicely. The idea to take the SMB story and make it so dramatic was pulled off excellently. The ending, most of all, was incredible. I'll never play Super Mario Brothers again without thinking about how this series ended up.

Score: 7

"Nice Mentos Parody"

submission: Magic Mentos

date: May 4, 2006

This was fun to watch (and I did so twice). It was a different twist on the original Mentos commercials (where the music stopped when someone got clobbered) and the ending was great! Video quality was pretty good as well, considering the small file size.

A note to those who claim this isn't Flash and therefore doesn't deserve to be on here: 1) It's *.swf, 2) Movies with clay animation are of the exact same variety, and 3) the first frame (with the Play button) is actual "animation."

Score: 7

"Catchy Song"

submission: The Ultimate Showdown

date: January 16, 2006

I found myself mouthing the words to the chorus in the middle of my second time watching it. The song's really nice. The animation to go along with it was pretty good. It captured all of the primary aspects of the video. It looked a bit cheaply done in some parts, but overall it was well done.
