Shmossy's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Egocaptured]

Art was decent, but overall, it was boring.

The jokes were dull and predictable, and being a "Flash Comic" is just an excuse not to animate it much.
It started out good, but the fun ground to a halt as it progressed.
I guess it's just not my type of Flash.

ImpendingRiot responds:

I guess not.

[B-b-b-bioshock!!]

Ah dear god...

Pictures with scribbled lines over them and a voice going "b-b-b-boishock, fuck you fuck, fuck b-b-b-boishock, fuck you buy it now fucker" doesn't deserve to be on Newgrounds.
Infact, it was worse than the KK or CC's movies.
What has Newgrounds become?

Please, for your own Battling Average or even the good of the people, please don't submit anything else until you understand that pretending to be cool by swearing every 2 seconds and saying "bioshock is too awesome for you. Go away." in thedescription makes you look like a total fool.

You don't seem like a complete idiot, so it's suprising that you submit short movies as terrible as this.

Mechabloby responds:

Boredom usually conquers my soul. This event frequently happens in my life. This just so happens to be a side effect of the devil's handy work.

[Cooking Friend:Burger]

Pretty good.

It was unusual, the graphics were fine, the animation was OK too, but a little too much tweening for my tastes. Yet you explained that this was tweening practice, so it doesn't really matter. I voted 5 just to get the score up by a little bit, as even though there's nothing fantastic about it, it was pleasing to watch, and the music was good too.

In short, it was-
Relaxing
Unusual
Different
Enjoyable
Well made.

Good job. It's nice to see something different once in a while, and I do hope that you make a series out of this.

Darksunda responds:

Thankyou. I gotta admit, i don't know what i was thinking when i made this. Unusual is an understatement. Thankyou very much for the review, and I'm going to try a series!

[The Halloweenator]

To be honest...

I didn't really like it that much. The explosion looked like you had saved an image from google and selected trace bitmap or whatever, and the plot was predictable.
When he walked away it really annoyed me because he quickly bobbed up and down unrealistically. The art was quite good, but it seemed let down by the animation. I didn't notice any frame by frame in there, but maybe that's just me. Tweening isn't all that hard, but I do appreciate the effort you put into this.
Next time try a less predictable plot that is actually pretty funny.
You may not like FBF, but in my opinion, fully tweened movies look a little unrealistic and robotic.
It was alright, I guess. Just not worth the score it has.

Lambinvoker responds:

There was actually very little tweening in the entire animation. In fact, the only tweening I did was when the camera faded in and out or zoomed in and out. All the character movements, lip syncing, and gesters were done completely frame by frame. I actually prefer frame by frame over tweening. It's just that I'm still not very good at it yet, thus it sort of looks like tweening. In my next projects I intend to work on more vibrant animations.

As for the plot, you'd have to talk to my brother about that, he wrote the entire script, and I only followed it word for word.

As for the whole score thing: Yeah, it's been overated. I don't know who, but during an entire week after it was submitted, the score kept on increasing. It literally rose from a 3.60 to almost 3.80 during that time. I felt it was getting out of hand, so I posted on my news profile to tell my friends or whoever to stop feeling compelled to vote on it. It's kind of meaningless at this point. Anywho, thanks for your review.

Bad job

Nothing made sense, the voice acting wasn't great - it sounded too childish and stupid, also the clay was dirty, and the animation wasn't good either.

mattuiop responds:

I will improve clay!
thanks anyway

[rocklee vs sasuke]

Not good.

Like most noob sprite movies, it had almost no sound, the music wasn't fitting, and it just ended abruptly. You have a LOT to learn.

thedo12 responds:

I know its preety crappy but im keeping it up here just to see how much ive improved and im not gonna use sprites anymore

[Goombas The Movie]

Cool.

I liked it, although it would have been a lot better if it was longer. When mario was saying stuff in his sleep it was quite good, and the pink panther style music was great. I think it's from the Pink Panther, anyway. Overall, I enjoyed it, but some of it had a tacky feel that made it look noobish. For example, the female goombas looked odd, and some writing didn't fit into the textbox. Use the text tool next time.
But yeah, all in all this was pretty enjoyable. Just make another with a longer, less predictable story. 8/10.

prut97 responds:

i did use the text tool..... LOL! but well, thx
