The past week was a pretty good week in the world of flash animations.  Two highly anticipated movies were released, and boy, they were pretty awesome.  In case you didn't catch them, here's some quick info on them.

DE_dust2

Where: http://www.flash-deck.com/animations/de_dust2.php
Info: Compared to the other animations in this series, this one is probably the best in terms of quality, comedy, and longevity.  I actually lol'd a few times while watching.  Even though it's based around Counter Strike the game, you don't need to have played it to get the comedy in this (like me).  Definitely worth a few minutes to watch.

Super Mario Bros Z - Ep. 7

Where: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/462494
Info: Personally, I love this series.  Alvin Earthworm does a great job using only sprites from the classic games to create all of the art in these animations.  Each movie in this series are really quite long, the latest one (this one) is probably over 15 minutes long, maybe even more.  I suggest you watch the previous 6 episodes before this one to get a good grasp at what the story is: link.  It is somewhat complex and you'll be pretty lost if you don't.  Don't let the animation quality in the first few episodes fool you, Alvin has improved 10-fold, and this episode proves it.

Upcoming
