Vaslious's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Awakening Prologue]

hmm

Okay, i'm sad to say the pre-loader was the best part of this flash. After the eternity of intro credits the story begins, and there's no movement. There was only a few moveing parts in this entire flash, and it was the same sprite.

[Peaches/Muffin Clan trib.]

Nice

This was pretty good BBM, it's nice to see some muffin flash again. The graphics were lacking in some areas, but the amusment factor made up for it. Very Nice!

BananaBreadMuffin responds:

Thanks..... yeah.... :)

[Oliver]

Funny, but

There was next to no animation, it was more or less a slide show with stick-like figures. This flash also needed backgrounds and a lot more movement.

On the other end of the specturm, the plot was hilarious as was the narration. The only problem with the narration was that you were too close to the mic and a lot of static bleed through.

Nice job though.

[MetalGear]

Needs a little work

Here's what you can add to boost the score:
1) Decorate the backgrounds, plain white is boring to look at.
2) Add shadow to the stickmen, that's the one thing most stick animators don't even bother to do.

Things i liked:
1) The scope was cool, but if there was orange filling in between the orange line (alpha=20) in addition to the sweeper, it'd be a bit more accurate.
2) The blood stains on the wall after the gun shot was cool, maybe add a pool of blood too.

Overall not bad

actually u no i was gona put light color and especially shadows but i was too tired and bored so im like ill do it next episode. but thanx!

[- Chrono Trigger Trailer]

Nice trailer

I think i've seen a couple of drawn Chrono Trigger flashes before but this was pretty good. Is this a trailer for the game or are you going to make a full flash out of this?

Good job.

Quimera responds:

cool, see the other submission i have too!

[TOG3TH3R Beginnings]

It was okay

The artwork was pretty good, there just needed to be more stuff going on sometimes. The Narration wasen't good and neither was the moments where there was text over the States, (the text & States were poorly drawn).

As far as characters go, they were well drawn and had amusing facial expressions.

Overall not bad, you just need to work on the presentation a little better because the plot was lost in some places.

MC-Huggies responds:

Lol I know. I noticed that there were some boring parts with no action, so I'm gonna work on that next time. I also drew the text in the beginning when I probably shouldn't have... and detail on California could've been a lot better. Thx

[HappyMeal 1:Goten's Test]

:/ Needs work

First and foremost the voices were annoying, second this wasen't very long at all and there was next to no animation (only 8 or 9 tweens).

The plot was hard to find because nothing really was explained, like why Gohan was doing the test. Right now, there isn't much to base a series on so i suggest you add more content because this was pretty bare as far as animation goes.

[GH04 - Havoc]

Cool

This is a very good sprite flash, i liked how you combined characters from a couple different games, very nice. The animation was in sync with the music, although the flash may have been better with a different song, but that's just me.

Good job!

[The singing squash]

Hmm

I'm not sure what you actually did to this movie. Since it's not a flash animation but rather a imported movie clip, this may not be the best place to display your work.

Here's my take:
1) Voice was annoying
2) The mouth added on to the squash reminded me of the Quizno's hamsters i dislike
3) The death of the squash was the only plot in this movie clip.

mr-wheatley responds:

what did i do to this movie? I made it.
What's your problem, theres plenty of movie files on newgrounds.
the clip is 10 seconds long. what are you talking about 'plot points' it's a one off gag. The voice is meant to be annoying. I can't help it if it reminded you of Quizno's. thanks for taking the time to comment.

[Sketchy Vol. 1]

Pretty good

Here's what i noticed needs work: The man could have been drawn a bit more symetrical. The movement was way too slow. The blood splatter fell off the guys head insead of going through the head.

Good points: Funny black & white comedy, a pretensious rock, and an interesting style.

Overall not bad
