Omgee's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Jesusland]

agreed

I'm agreeing with Silentplayer on this one: I, too, almost closed the window after the fourth time I saw that violin go across the screen. That went on way too long; you might want to consider putting something else in there so people don't immediately think it's just an endless loop.

Graphically, I think you've got some room for improvement... but this is definitely a start. Cool concept; now you just have to make it work a little more smoothly.

You got my protection vote, anyway, but please improve on this and resubmit it, even if it passes.

[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).

[Goodbye MaestroSorrow]

Nice.

A very fitting tribute for an excellent portal artist. Props to both of you; him for helping you and you for giving credit where credit is due. I wish you both the best.

By the way, nice first flash. You obviously put some effort into this, and I hope it's protected. You've got my 5, at least, and I look forward to seeing your work in the future.

5/5, 9/10, both artists faved.

[Great Job, Terry]

LOL

Fivened because:

1. Your movie cracked me up.

2. 6FPS is exactly what this needed.

3. I'm not a trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrst.

Only thing I would add is some sound effects. *BOING* YOU WON! Or something.

But yeah, you win a 5/5. Woot.

[The Suicide Song]

LOL

Maybe I'm just a jerk, but I thought this was really, really funny. Like, laugh my ass off funny. The audio was great, but the images that you set to it were hilarious. Great artwork, too, by the way. The timing was off a bit toward the end, and the song didn't end with the video, which lost you a point off graphics, but everything else was right on the money.

Great job, and I'm glad I was able to help protect this. :)

[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.

[edgardo's last adventure]

awh!

I've been enjoying the Edgardo movies over the past few days. Short, but well animated. Sorry to see the series end, but I'll be looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.

Cheers.

[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
