I understand how hard it is to criticise egoraptor without seeming like you hate it, I actually enjoy his work but it receives way more credit than it is due. It's not exactly hard to talk fast and swear a lot, but it's funny definitely....the first time or so.
The compilations especially show the repetitive nature of his cartoons, as they all follow so tightly to the basic formula as you've shown. "there's a black guy so let's make him talk gangsta' 'lol this character's gay' 'loldicks' 'lolhot'. It makes you giggle at first but then you just start wondering whether egoraptor is a homophobic, sexist racist, which I'm sure he's not. It's just that you expect to see something new from each piece, rather than the same flash with different characters in it.
This was a great short flash, the animation was smooth, the voicing was great and it made me laugh, so thanks.
Think I'll go watch Metal Gear Awesome again now.

"Wait, since when did Americans berets?"
It was a pretty decent animation, not sure where the idea of animosity between Japanese and Americans came from, but maybe it would've been better to focus on more of the stereotypical cultural difference rather than just the idea that American men are misogynistic ill-mannered louts.
Still the art and animation were pretty good and kept with the style of an instructional video, with that classically obvious background music choice. It was a bit throwing to have the narrator with an American accent but was intended to be Japanese?
Either way I look foward to your next animation, good luck.

"I laughed so hard at Jimmy Carr"
This style is great and fits so well, and the jokes were better than those 'Awesome' series has been getting.
Can't go wrong with video game parodies on NG!

Thanks dude.
I loved that pokemon cartoon thing you made a while back, by the way.

"Greta piece of work right here"
Loved it all the way through, the voices at the begginning were inaudible as has already been said, but apart from that the voices were all very clear and well done. The graphics were solid, even lagging up my poor little computer a while into it, thought it looked espcially slick on the grinch montague.
Can't believe people still downvote this because it's a clock movie though, how immature.

Kids are so cruel :[ Thanks for the voices and the nice review :D

It's true that egoraptor's movies are like an episode of Gilmore Girls with swearing.
Author's Response:
Yeah, duh.
That's why I said it, dude.

I really didn't get where the joke was, just because he's gay he's also sexist, harassing paeodphile? I know "it's a joke", I just don't see where the humour lies, seems like the entire plot was just to string together some lines of Dumbeldore talking dirty. This could have been done in a funny way, but this is just saying "dumbledore is gay llololol".
Nevertheless, the animation was subpar, just basic tweening of characters with some facial movements, I think if you move away from stuff like this you could make something decent.
Author's Response:
This was merely a short that I made. Nothing else I've ever made is like this, though I wouldn't stray from making something like this again. I thought it was a funny idea and the type of animation allowed me to make it somewhat quickly.
Thanks for the review.

"Great music video, the animation suited the song"
The use of gradients was good but subtle in creating the dark atomsphere, I can really see you improving with animation now, it fits smoothly together and works well.
Keep it up.
Author's Response:
thanks Will
i should use gradients more often to be honist

The voice acting was the real winner in this, it was a nice simple animation with a few laughs, all in the spirit of N00bday.

I thought this was great and deserved a higher score, especially compared to alot of the sprite movies and such that get 4.00+. There's just a few points that let it down, for one the vocals were barely audible, so notch them right for a start.
Secondly, the timing was sometimes off in parts. If there's a pause for too long and it's not intentional, you should move on to the next characters dialogue.
Other than that I liked it, the graphics were good for what they were, some good fbf and smooth animation for the most part. It's no worse than mine so I'd say that's good thing.
Make more, cause I likes them.

By George this was truly magnificent, I can't believe how splendidly great it is. Seriously though, good job boys.
