[BB10 Clock's Sword Quest]

and excellent dance-off between king klaathonar the 3rd VS vuvuzela clock, in a duel that will decide the fate of ukele-clock, who was help prisoner in the mountain of alebor by the evil aforementioned king above.

meanwhile, while all this epic dance-off was taking place in the royal grounds of braclakia, sir BB10-clock was out there, rescuing ukele-clock and trying to find the missing fragment of the ''eternal sword'', a mythical sword which was supposed to give the power of B to whoever would yield it.

but there are many enemies around, and BB10 must hurry up...

excellent movie about the legendary dance-off of the ages, and with some sick moves by sir vuvuzela clock himself...

great stuff, keep up the good work, thor!
happy clockday!

[Aqua Teen Hunger Clock Force]

wow, this was a very cool, beautiful clockday movie!

i like how you've drawn the main heroes as the characters of the A.T.H.F., while everything and every character was drawn beautifully, and the voices used matched with those of their corresponding characters...

as for the story, it was quite interesting, since it showed us that the creations (aka=the movie's characters), acknowledged that they were in a flash movie(!!!), and they decided to ask for explanations from their creator, namely the cool redbook clock.

after that, many funny things happened, also the movie had some clicking ''easter eggs'' (brilliant!), and a couple of extra scenes that were quite the surprise here...

great movie, nice humour, nicely drawn characters, smooth animation, and clever inside jokes as well!

lastly, the post-credits scene was really cool!

excellent work, keep it up, and have a happy clockday!

happy clockday!

[Clock Day 2018]

an excellent tribute to his majesty, king strawberry clock IV of clocktopia, may his noble hand rule us kindly for a thousand years!!1oneone

the top-view of the earth was awesome, starting from a space view, moving onto the atmosphere and then into a bird's eye view, while it slowly descended down into bluestone's location...
now THAT was an impressive intro!

very nice work, very cute clockday movie, and it also used the ''god save the queen'' jokes nicely and in a clever manner.

good stuff, keep up the good work, and have a happy clockday!

[Shitty shorts 1 The loch mess monster]

this was a great little short!

good drawings of the main characters, nice linework, very fluid animation, good FBF sequences, and a very funny story as well!

it was nicely drawn, nicely animated, with good vibes and with excellent humour.
great work, keep it up, mate!

[Kratos and Son]

well, this was a great movie!

everything was nicely drawn, from the whole design+face expressions of kratos, to that of his son (and of his face expressions+movements as well), while i also enjoyed every other aspect of it...

furthermore, the ''boy!'' meme/catchphrase idea was used nicely in this parody, and i liked how kratos was tough with his son, while teaching him things, but he also switched between being ''sensitive'' to being ''fair but stern'' in quick alterations...

another great thing was that you poked fun with the different languages of the game.
indeed, the game of kratos also comes with greek voice-acting, which is not only cool, but also accurate, since kratos is a greek hero.

i loved it when kratos said: ''wait a second, im GREEK!!!1'', and he started talking in greek (the voice-actor did a nice job, those were some nicely spoken greek, sir!), while later on he realised that... they are ''appropriating'' his culture! OH NO!111
i loved it when he got mad with anger, and then his voice changed suddenly into speaking japanese, while he was shaped like the yu-gi-oh guy (a truly genius moment!), while his son spoke in ''espanol'', and he said that ''the knowledge of many languages is such a gift for mankind'' (which is true!), and then kratos got mad again...

all in all, it was a nicely drawn, well-animated, flawless movie, an excellent parody about kratos and his ''boy'', while also poking fun at all other other jokes about this cool game+character...

im greek, and i loved this!
excellent work, keep it up!

[Encounter]

excellent movie, great story (without the need for words, and its a rare thing to see nowadays...), amazing visuals, great linework, great, flawless FBF animation, and amazing moments, such as the moment when the rich skier-boy encounters the aged, experienced hunter with the ski's...
great face expressions, great posture+anatomy of the heroes, nicely drawn characters+backgrounds, while the movie itself had an equally amazing conclusion as well...

all in all, perfect work, keep it up!

[Clock Crew Tournament of Champions]

once again, its an excellent movie of the awesome clock-god of thunder, thor-clock (TM).

i really liked how all the clocks in this film rallied for two different sides in one topic:
to like anime, or to not like anime.

on the evil side, we had triangle (obviously), floppydisk (what?!), and strawberry clock (impossible!).
on the good side, we had the heroic thor-clock (ofc), the strong polyhedron (v. strong), and the legendary bb10 (a great swordsman, from what i've heard).

then, the battle wages on. love, conflict, betrayal and fear, all of the human emotions collide and emerge in this epic battle royale, as heroes and villains fall alike, and the duel between weaboo's and anime-haters wages on...

eventually, as the battle comes to an end, and only two heroes remain, the fate of anime rests on two people: SBC and BB10.
the ending was too superb for me to describe, so i will not spoil it to the other viewers.
watch it, and be impressed by thor-clock's great storytelling skills.

my only complaints about this movie was that:
it should be longer,
bb10 should be more muscular (we need accuracy!), and he should also be carrying a sword, but apart from those minor details, the movie itself was perfect!

excellent work, 10/10, it was very kawaii, and i say: arigato senpai!
keep it up, and do more epic movies like this.

Ushnor responds:

You can not use your sword for such minor conflicts. What would your senpai think if you unleashed your full power?

[LL - Reunion]

a great story from the chronicle of the LL: ''The Hunt for the Key of Glorton''.
i like how the characters are all nicely drawn and with good linework, i love how some characters behave in a random way (such as when AMPM pops in to say ''hello guys, whats up!''), i loved it when zteagh-lock talks japanese to pumpkin and calls him a sugoi (so kawaii!!), while trash lock's punchline when he says ''OK, but does anyone know why we have female voices?'', which adds a new twist to the whole action movie, and inserts some much needed humour, in an otherwise serious movie.

i also like how the legendary clock-hero (BB10-clock) was portrayed in the film, showing him helping all the locks to achieve a fragile peace between the CC and the GG, which would help them further into exploring the caves of ulcar, in order to find more clues about the location of the key of glorton.

furthermore, i really liked how the boom-microphone was visible during the last moments of the movie, making fun of the movie itself, and making it look like a home-made video story, it was really funny+clever!

lastly, i think that pumpkin's pessimism about the LL's state was a bit unfounded, because the LL is still in great shape, and its in a much better state than what it was during the ''dead period'' of 2014-2017...
things are looking up, and the LL will rise again.

all in all, it was a funny, pleasant, and wild movie, and i liked it alot.
keep up the good work, pumpkin!

Psi43 responds:

Thank you so much, chris-the-stick2!

I aimed to make this movie - the hunt for the key of Glorton - like the Goonies movie. They all already know each other, just like in the movie E.T. but one thing (the reunion) sets them off to an epic quest.

BB10 was an idea I got when I reviewed a facebook post about the writing of this movie. As everyone knows, the tension between the Lock Legion, the Clock Crew and the Glock Group is as high as the mariana trench nowadays. I didn't think anyone would catch the bit about the Glock Group, when Trash Lock was talking about the female voices but the subtitle said something about a fishing trip. That is an incredible amount of trivia you, as a viewer, caught on to, since the main goal of the Glock Group was and has always been to go on a fishing trip.

The boom mic was a necessity. Without that, the entire movie would have looked stupid. But that boom mic inspired the characters to pick up their act and really pull through, eventually capturing the key of Glorton (despite that story being implied and off screen, but watching this movie, you will definitely know how that adventure would have gone and their struggles and friendship trials, that lead to the capturing of the key).

I do agree that the pessimism of Pumpkin Lock was unfounded. I thought so, too, but I was already 8 months into production of this film when I noticed that. Instead of re-shooting it all (which would have taken at least 2 months), I hoped that the audience wouldn't notice that. Sadly, you did though, and I admit of being lazy for the sake of bringing this film out sooner, rather than reshooting major parts of that. I am sorry. But I am still very thankful for the 10 out of 10 review! I will not make this mistake again.

Thank you for your kind words! I hope you're looking forward to my upcoming film "Pumpkin and Robot are looking for treasures on Mars". It will be a feature film, at one hour and 22 minutes, and it will be awesome. Paramount Pictures granted me 22 million Dollars for production value, so I am sure it will be a bit better than this movie!

It will release in Summer of 2025!

[POWERLESS.fla]

another beautiful masterpiece by krinkels, accompanied by chesyre's beautiful music!

i like how the story is consistent, and how we witness (once again) the torments of deimos, as he tries to escape from the nightmarish dimension of death!

i like how the physics dont work in here anymore, as its shown by the gravity variations in this dark enviroment, while the mystery cubes pop up in every corner, smashing everything that stands in their way, while the claw/sting of (hank?) terror strikes down deimos as he tries to make a daring escape.

i love the endless action in your movies, the flawless FBF animation, and the superb quality in the battle scenes, in the poses of the characters, and in the whole (organised+unique) insanity that exists in the movie...
combine all those great elements with your top-notch animations, add the great music of chesyre, and you've got a mastepriece!

amazing stuff, keep up the good work, krinkels, you are the best!
