Your Super Mario Bros. Z animations pay incredible attention to each character's personality and fighting behaviors, and it really brings a legitimacy to this series. Your battles are very clever and ultimately inspiring as well. Really well done, although I would recommend straying from your non-pixelated close-ups - they really take away from the overall style.

I was one of those that enjoyed the singing dolphin opening of the movie.
and that was about all I did enjoy of the movie.
Great animation - especially when the camera pulls under the water during the sunset.

For a game where you simply press spacebar, that was pretty fun. You should beef it up even more now, for example, put ramps on the left and right and have the player control Sonic completely, as well as add a trick system for in the air. Also, a "Finish!" splash at the end would be nice too.
Nice work. You've got a great start on it - now just keep making it better.

Ok, Sonic is my favorite video game character of all time. I have never seen anything like this before. This was truly a freakish, violent, and disturbing flash about Sonic. I think what really sold it was the art style - very smooth - very original - very well done. If this was done with pathetic stick figures - I probably wouldn't have found it funny and blammed it. But your animation really paid off on this. Well done.

"A very well developed, humorous idea."
Loading up your game didn't lead me to expect very much. At first I was a little taken away by the odd jumping physics and the poor collision detection. But once I got into the game, I was very impressed at the amount of secrets, humor, and variety you had to offer. The boss battles were creative, and the level design was surprisingly unique.
In fact, there were some hard levels that had me and my roommate laughing quite a bit simply because it was hilarious how ridiculous you made some sections of the levels. Very funny play on the Koopa Trooper getting shells to become protected and what-not. Very well, done, I had a lot of fun playing it to the end. Nice job.

This flash was made so perfectly that it's hard to believe. You really know you're stuff, and I know you'll do more great things with Flash.

You Really Need Some Sort of Story Arc, and You Need to Make it Much Longer. The Problem is That I Don't Even See The Winner Finish Across the Finish Line.

I really enjoyed the way you had things explode and repel. But if you want this to have a good score, you need to include more than just that part of it.
-Add a reason why they're exploding
-Make it much longer and with some sort of story arc
-Add sound effects, if at all possible

I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting this to be an animation to a U2 song, so when it started, I was already thinking of it as a neat idea. You started to scare me a little bit when his wings popped out, the movie started becoming a little bizarre and out of style from the song, but you turned it around just fine.
The story was kind of neat and I really did enjoy it. But when he hit the missile and his girlfriend started crying, it was a little bit too comical when it should have been tense (for me at least).
This is a real quality piece of work and I really enjoyed it. A couple random things I noticed:
-The opening symbol... reminded me of the video game "Phantasy Star Online."
-The scene on the beach where he's pulling the fish out of the water reminded me of a scene from the Transformers Movie.
-I really really liked your use of colors. Very well done and well organized. Great work.
