Pretty good...
Didn't care for some of the animation...but it was very catchy and pretty funny.
Reviews for "The Ultimate Showdown"
good
it was good and funny but others (adam phillips, robsh66, granfaloon, etc) have worked hard to make the animation good your guys was mostly jusst a funny song with good animation but theirs they have better visuals wich is pretty hard for flash and im not saying its not good though
Overhyped
I don't understand why everyone has went bonkers over this video.
I thought it was an amusing premise. A showdown with a bunch of random cool people in it, and some uncool people. They all fight and its violent and bloody.
Ok, I get it. Chuck Norris. Hilarious. Conan O'Brian shows clips from his shows all the time. Comedic, kinda gory.
Music is okay. Boyish voice kinda gets annoying after a while. Other than that, its written well and was made for the movie. Good on them for that.
Animation was not very good, period. A lot of tracing and such. Buildings and bg not very well defined. A good amateur effect, though. On par with my artistic talent in flash. Nice length, it shows that these guys didnt burn out or rush the process.
The guy that ends up winning... a bit of a surprise. Funny.
But not *that* funny. Not ranked number 2 for popularity funny. I've watched this thing 3 times or so. I don't GET IT!

I don't know why everyone went bonkers either.
And the only thing I traced was the outline of Samuel L. Jackson.
Also the background were for fullness not for coolness!
That is a catchy-ass song
Animation wasn't superb, but the song more than made up for it, and it flowed quite well. I loved the references as well... seeing Lo Pan cracked me up. Just goes to show that you don't need to be a brilliant animator to make a brilliant flash.
nice
well it's pretty cool but who the f*ck is mr rogers
