You may disgard this view by saying "I got number 1 so what does it matter?" Well the fact is, an official madness episode easily has the potential to top the charts for weeks and achieve record breaking scores. This didn't and having watched it I'm not suprised.

It was a good flash, but I'd put it down as one of the worst madnesses yet and here's why. I say these things only so that you don't make the same mistakes and keep madness fresh and progressing. They are not just personal opinions, it's the same issues coming up again and again:

1) And this is something you really should've leant from by now, people having been shouting it out for several episodes. The general fighting is really losing its appeal, introducing a hook does not add any new creativity for long. The main problem is your enemies are simply WALKING right into weapons or just standing there ready to be shot. The good guys can't do anything skillful because they're fighting pathetically slow and idiotic men. However, the 2 guards who managed to kill one of the guys were a refreshing touch as they actually took their shots purposely.

2) The narrative structure, this was all over the place. It was great to see you showing what happened during the previous episode, infact the start of the movie was fantastic. The problem was the ending. You unveiled a massive enemy creature, and then didn't show its power at all. Rather illustrating its strength by showing it smash through helpless men, you instead chose to make it attack an evenly matched Hank straight away.

3) Hank. It was great that they were taking him to be "re-newed", but when it finally happened it was totally ridiculous. He doubled in size and recieved a mutated arm? wtf? The best thing about madness was the fact he was just this guy beating the absolute shit out of these things that came at him... His true strength was skill whilst everyone else had some kind of power or size.

4) You were always the king of creating an atomsphere. You did it brilliant in the past with the clown and the "drug like" music. I used to love the whole DJ club atmosphere aswell it was such a weird mix. This is the first episode where I saw practically none of this.

That said, your animating skills are absolutely brilliant and I'd really love to see you take this series back on track.

Right...

So in all seriousness, did anyone actually find that funny? Or did you just stare at her ass and vote 5?

Well it always had to be a happy ending :)

What you've made here is something that started out as just some random cartoon, turning into something pretty epic and highly impressive. You are an extremely talented person and you should always be proud of your "There She Is" series. This series stands as truly some of the most impressive flash art of all time.
SamBakZa, I congratulate you.

I'm not sure how anyone could give this a 10...
It's long yes, but it's just a lot of the same thing. The use of sprites is mediocre, looking a little messy in places, but the main problem is the script.
It's just not funny, it's fairly dull to listen to as the entire plot is pretty weak. Very little of the text actually has purpose, half the time it's just characters droning on about nothing.
I think I smiled at maybe one bit, the rest of the jokes were just embarassing and any attempt at narrative wasn't interesting at all.
In addition, a lot of the voice acting didn't suit the characters. Or rather, some of the Link's lines sounded like they were being read off a script as opposed to being in character.
Thankyou for making it though, I just don't think it works at all.

Usually I find inappropriate stuff like this hilarious. The fact you said it took you a year so seriously also made me laugh.

But scrolling photos of bodies in the background? It was just fuckin sick tbh. There's a line between being funny and just being some fucked up freak who always takes it too far. You crossed that.

...

Very good, was really great to see a more serious side of Sonic. Your next step is to now make some actual episodes :)

...

I havn't even played the game but I found it hilarious. This is just towers above Egoraptor's GOW2 attempt, I hope he puts more effort in next time.

The X-Heiko guy below me is an idiot, he took it seriously so as to give us a lecture on how little he knows about science. Brilliant.

Good animation with an interesting subject. This, along with Maxwell Edison and the Jerry movies probably make you one of the more interesting artists on NG.

...

Alright I'm sorry but you really are taking the piss with how short that was. It doesn't even qualify as a movie worth rating. It wasn't at all bad, infact I laughed within the short amount of seconds it actually lasted.
But seriously, this is ridiuclous. You need to start submitting movies that run longer than 60 seconds.

...

It's great to see stuff like this near the top of the portal again, reminds me of the days of counter stick!
There was one flaw though, the use of music. "Slam" is incredably overplayed and didn't really fit at all. In fact having it playing whilst watching the movie was incredably annoying and felt like an amateur excuse to include the song for the sake of it.
Apart from that, nice job.
