Omgee's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[- Tribute -]

Wow..

I'm amazed. Great graphics, great timing, great music -- and all pulled off with an incredible flair and knowledge of exactly what should be put into a music video.

I'll be looking for this on the front page. Wow.

MajinPiccolo responds:

Thanks! :3

[Zelda: The Shiny Thingy]

Nice!

Great first flash. The ending was pretty funny.

Suggestions:

1. Parts of it dragged on a little too long, even when you acknowledged that they were dragging on too much.
2. Consider upping your frame rate. Some of this looked a little choppy. Not horrible, but a little.
3. We all know that you're an anal bum and a cheesy jedi... but you don't have to spend quite so much time on your introductions. Make 'em move faster, and consider doing the CJ and AB animations on the same screen, side by side or something. Honestly, I've seen feature films in the theater get going quicker than that. :)

Otherwise, this is a tremendous first effort, and I'm looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.

5/5.

analbum responds:

I'll keep that all in mind for our next one, thanks a lot for the review and support!

[Arizona Extreme 001]

Wow..

It's about time someone took on the challenge of filling in the background of the Arizona saga. Chrome-'s ongoing series is amazing, there's no doubt about it, but this prequel series brings us back to the roots of Jeb's beginnings and starts to fill in some of the missing pieces to what happened before the Arizona storyline.

The graphics and heartfelt voice acting here are incredible. I actually cried at the end when the police were chasing Jeb. The realism was awesome... I can't believe you did this all in Flash.

Can't wait to see the next episode.

5/5, 10/10.

Starberry responds:

honest answer: i might make something that isn't just pictures fading

[GayWizard : Deepfreeze]

hm.

Well, for starters, the intro to this flash says it's not to be displayed anywhere but on a different website, so I have to assume this is stolen, so I voted to blam based on that.

That said, the graphics were decent, but the sound was really quiet, the story was virtually nonexistent, and the flash was way too short. I'm sorry, I'm really not trying to be a jerk, but was this supposed to be funny? It wasn't. :(

The graphics are good, though, so that's a start. Good luck.

mazeteam responds:

as regards the 'stolen' crap, did you click on the white text box in the bottom left corner at the end of the animation? If you had, you would have seen the text listing newgrounds.com among 3 other sites authorised to show this. this white text box will be at the end of anything I put on newgrounds and is also on my other (1st) submission.

sound: sound is poor i know, but you wouldn't be able to decipher what somebody was sayin if there mouth was frozen in ice! :p

funny: most people locally who have seen this found it funny (an they weren't on an acid trip) but... if it doesn't get your sense of humor, it just doesn't. what matters is others like it (check other reviews).

[Dead Silent 2]

Nice!

Wow... I really liked this. Graphics were really smooth and sharp, especially considering this is a stick animation. Sound was synced perfectly and the music was a good fit as well. The only thing I wasn't so much of a fan of was the fireball bit... it seemed a little out of place with the rest of it. Otherwise, I really enjoyed this one.

Oh, the intro cracked me up... when it started off tiny I thought the whole flash was going to be like that, and the explosion was awesome. Nice work.

Haxxy responds:

Never underestimate stick figure animations, there's more to them than most people think. Hmm, the fireballs...I needed an introduction to some of the things that are going to happen in Dead Silent 3. =)

The only problem with the intro is some noobs who opened up the preloader and said "hey this sucks it's too small" and closed out of the animation without watching it.

[Pinball The Movie]

well, good try

This is a good idea, but the implementation is lacking. Your graphics need a little work, the sound is incredibly distorted, and the laws of physics are, well, ignored in some cases. Also, try upping your frame rate (to make the animation flow more smoothly) and speeding things up a bit (come on, pinball's not really that slow!).

That's not to say that your flash sucks, because it doesn't... it just needs some cleaning up. Keep at it. :)

inertia responds:

thanks for the pointers

[The U]

*laugh*

This is one of the funniest things I've seen on NG in weeks. Nice job, and *so* true. I'd love to see a sequel sometime.

5d and 10d.

KirbyPhelpsPK responds:

:D

[~End of the World~]

Nice!

Yeah, sticks are overdone, but once in a while, something like this comes along that really shows the potential of stick figure work.

Graphics: 9. You obviously spent a lot of time on this. The frames match up with each other (and with the music) quite well, and everything flows really smoothly.

Style: 9. Although things occasionally got choppy, overall the animation is slick, and the lead character is thoroughly suppish. I especially liked the part when the robots first came along and, after trying to push them back, he jumped on the first robot and used its head to kill the rest. Classic.

Sound: 10. High quality, and it needed to be. Great song, too.

Violence: 9. Not too bloody, but it didn't need to be. I loved the pile of bodies... excellent!

Interactivity: Unimportant.

Humour: 7. Funny enough, but it's not a comedy, so this didn't bring down the overall score.

Overall: 9. Excellent work.

I hope you continue submitting high quality, well prepared flash like this. If this is what you can do with stick art, I can't wait to see what's next.

Jasmerrin responds:

Thank you very much! This was the most thorough and helpful review yet.

[Pico & Friends!]

dsklfjadks;lj

Nice work. I do wish you'd had time to finish it, because the quality here is really high and I think it would've scored so much better if you'd had more time. Maybe you can finish this for next year's Pico Day. :)

Fim responds:

lol, thanks man. That's the thing with fbf, even a quick mess around with it can take about an hour, IT'S JUST SO DARN TIME CONSUMING!! Yeah, I might finish it for next year, it really is my problem for not noticing the pico thread for as late as I did, I probably could've done alot more if I'd spotted it when the thread was begun.

Thanks for the review, and enjoy Pico day!

[Create bad flash PREVIEW]

Ha

Can't wait to see the full version. Good idea... you pulled it off.

5/5 here.

XIIIthSoundsSoldier responds:

Thanks dude much obliged.
