Wow, let's give Phil a lot of credit for making a movie in 2004 with this little room for improvement. Out of curiosity, what is the C meter? And how do you get the final boss to disappear like that? All in all, nice improvement.

Could I suggest that the movie contain the tag "Contains Speed / Entertainment tradeoffs?" Unless I'm mistaken, in most cases where the zombies are lured to the explosive barrels, the zombies could be killed faster by not using the barrels.

Thanks for the fixed VBM, Flygon! Wow, this run is a really nice improvement over the previous submissions. I wouldn't have guessed that all weapons do the same damage at boss battles, so it was nice to see the Wave gun being used for better headshots. I liked seeing the run show off different weapons, particularly in Stage 2. It was cool to see the growing "Batshield" in Stages 2 and 4 as well. Also, as a major plus, the autoscroller antics were good, especially in Stage 4-2.

I liked it. I can't exactly tell what was improved, but the run was fast and the enemy graphics were cool. Yes vote. By the way, about your "P.S.", MiezaruMono, it's probably a good idea to set the game to English, though I'm not certain about this. How long do you think this run would be with or without an English-language change?

Nice little run! The music got repetitive in the first two stages, but the action looks good. It definitely seems like a hard game which you made easy. Out of curiosity, though, why did you run the Game Boy port? How is it different from the NES version? And also, it looks like you end only stages 4-1 and 4-2 on the left side of the goal platform. Why didn't you do this with more stages?

Thanks computerbird! This looks good so far. I'm a little surprised that in the stage where you rescue Elpizo, and you fight the 3 minibosses in a row, that you use the Ice power on all 3. Is it not worth it to switch powers? Also, in the forest stage, before entering the building, you shoot the Chain Rod 3 times for no apparent reason into the wall. What does this do? Keep up the great work though!

Hey, sorry for bumping this, but I was just curious about how things were going with the improved run with the chain rod glitch. I loved the last run you put out, computerbird, but I haven't heard anything new since you canceled that run.

Wow, bad game made into an awesome run. Big Ben was awesome with the gear glitching. The suicide after climbing the Tibetan temple was hilarious: I imagine Indy going "I climbed all these levels for THIS?! That's it!" The only boring stage was the Pyramid. Good job maTO! EDIT: By the way, Priam, I got this to sync playing in Gens v11a, if that helps.

There's no amazing input animation this time, but that's only a minor blemish on an awesome piece of work. The yi3 glitch is really surprising. The Big Boo fight doesn't have the same feeling of playing with death, but you still had some really cool block antics. It's great to see this run closer to perfection. Yes vote! Also, is there any chance of a 96-exit improvement?

I think the game is alright, but not great. If I recall correctly from the previous discussion of wwmarx's run, it was decided an SMS run of the game could obsolete this one. I don't know enough about these games to make any real argument for one or the other, though. About this run, it's quite nice. It definitely has polish and good uses of speed glitching. Bridge 1 was quite awesome. The Labyrinth stages actually felt more boring to me, as if I couldn't believe the game would force you to go that slow underwater. Also, in the Labyrinth boss battle, is it possible to get Robotnik to spawn twice in a row in the bottom pit? It seems like you could deal hits a lot faster there. I'll give this a yes vote in the meantime, as I think the game passes the threshold to warrant publication. I'd be open, though, for a future SMS run of this game to obsolete this if the SMS run is of comparable quality.

This seems like it's a good game to run (even with a couple boring autoscrollers, like that ship level). However, this run is really unoptimized. As Atma said, you club a lot of enemies while on the ground, thus pausing when you deal with them. Your swimming is very erratic in some of the water stages, where you don't cut corners closely and I think you hit an extra ceiling that you don't need to hit. You swing at bosses while they're still invulnerable, which only delays your next hit on them (you did this a lot with the second and third phases of the final boss). One other area that makes me curious: any time you had to walk on spike pits to save time, would it be possible to get super-flashy Congo first? In that one stage, where you keep walking on spikes and going between human Congo and monkey Congo, each transformation takes time for the stars to fade out. If you were super-flashy Congo, you wouldn't go through that transformation, so it seems like this would save you a lot of time. Maybe you could get health powerups from the slots that you sometimes play... you never won anything from the slots. I'm sorry, but I watch this and think it could be a whole lot better. No vote.

Finally found a few hours to watch this run. I wish the game were a little more glitchy, but it's still entertaining especially since the plot is largely intact. The run didn't feel that much different from the previous one, though nice improvement with Barubary and Deathevn. Yes vote.

Nice job with the wall-of-faces boss and the spider boss! They were the most notable changes in the run. The final boss was also cool, especially with the glitched beginning of the fight.

If this game teaches us all anything, it's that in the dangerous world of pizza delivery, rival pizza deliverymen will try to kill you, multiple times, to get rid of the competition. This game actually reminds me of the other pizza-eating game we have here, Yo Noid. The game's graphics and music are pretty cute, but the game seems really straightforward. The bonus game is just about as boring as most of the bonus games from Back To The Future. I couldn't really get into this as much, though it's not your fault. Meh vote. By the way, whatever happened to Kid Kool? I liked your submission for that game earlier, but I haven't seen anything further about the game.

Wonderful job again, Aktan, on the encode! As for the run, this was a great choice of goals. It basically turned RE3 into Smash TV with better graphics. I also really liked the speed-entertainment tradeoffs, particularly whenever you set up barrel explosions or had awesome dodges. Nice going!

Good job! This is a good run for a first submission, and it's definitely an improvement. It was cool to see that you can shoot the Ridley statue with a missile to raise the bridge... I didn't know missiles worked on those. I'm a little surprised that this movie from 2004 had so little of an improvement though... maybe that's because the route didn't really change this time. It would be cool if you got 867 on the final escape too, now that we know it's supposed to be possible. At least, if this gets figured out in the near future, only the very end of the movie needs to be changed, so there shouldn't be any need for obnoxious hex-editing. As for obsoletion, I am definitely in favor of this movie obsoleting the previous 1-item run and also the no-bosses run. The no-bosses run really doesn't have anything that the other runs don't:
  • It's not the low% run (this movie is the low% run, and maybe it should be published as such).
  • It doesn't fight the bosses, which are generally entertaining.
  • It doesn't play harder areas before Tourian (like this movie does), so the early play is not as impressive.
  • It features some Metroid dodging, but nowhere near as much as in this movie.
  • And the big issue: It needs to beat Tourian by farming Metroids for missiles to get past Zebetites, which throws off the pace of the movie. I mean, 30 missiles isn't even enough to kill Mother Brain in one go, so that battle has to be interrupted for more missile collection!

Somewhat off topic, it seems appropriate to bring up this old College Humor goodie: http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1770138 It actually takes a little longer to watch this video than it does to watch the run!

At first, I was going to ask why the game is being run on the Japanese version. Then I realized that FractalFusion's run is also on the Japanese version. It's tough to notice improvements, but the run is certainly impressive nonetheless. Nice job!

Nice screenshot! However, I'd suggest that the quote by theenglishman not end up in the description. The quote already seems to put down the movie before you watch it. How about taking the main paragraph you have and adding the sentence: "In each stage, Mowgli must obtain 12 of the red jewels before getting to the end, where he fights a boss or wakes up his sleeping panther friend Bagheera."

I have trouble staying interested in this game with the awful graphics, unfortunately. The midair glitch and the underwater zip are pretty cool, but everything else is quite repetitive, especially the long boss fights. Meh.

Thanks again, Aktan, for the encode! Really, much thanks to every one of the casual encoders these days. This run looked a lot better than the last one. I see now that when corners were taken wide, it was largely so that you still maintain maximum speed around the corner, rather than having to deal with slow acceleration from turning. Also, the bazooka did an awesome job with the bosses. Yes vote. As for a screenshot, I think that the time around 10:23 is pretty good. At that point, the game asks if you'll climb a ladder, but Jill is clearly facing the corner instead of the ladder. Alternately, I like near the beginning, there's a zombie that gets stabbed because he's in the way of a statue Jill is trying to push... that moment is pretty humorous to me.

You know, I ended up liking this game. I don't know the game well enough to know where you were taking shortcuts (except in some obvious places like walking through a spike wall). However, there's a nice sense of difficulty in the later stages. I also don't understand why you like the credits music so much, but whatever. I much preferred the Stage 5 music. Most of the early stage music is pretty annoying though. All in all, this seemed quite solid though not spectacular. I'll give this a Yes.

Alright! Now this game has a much better level of WTFitude. I also like how the beginning parts with the spikes looked more daring, and I liked the spastic motions during Chain of Coins which still manage to get all the money. Awesome improvement from the both of you!

Unfortunately, I can't yet watch this without an encode. I hope to eventually get desmume working on my system. However, in the meantime, I also want to congratulate Fladdermus on making a sizable improvement to an old run. Good job!

The submission text is pretty full of win, and it's a nice improvement too. I actually enjoy watching the last couple battles more with the slower firing speed. Good job andymac! Out of question, if a new Blaster Master run is done on the US version, will it skip areas?
