ArtistJ's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Breakfast Club]

odd

i dunno how well this will apeal to newgrounds demographic compared to what you normaly produced...

an invisible being creates breakfast? or the oranges and bacon have minds of their own and a re homicidal by diving into pans and blenders? I mean, damn you. Its 4:20 in the am here, and you got me craving breakfast already. Fabulous animation buddies. I'd like in on one of these co-op's some time.

[-The Heist-]

seems pointless

sure, you animate nicely. you showed a few people get shot, and a bank robber totaly badass. but it was way too quiet, lacked most sound. it came off really unoriginal and sorta bland. i would have liked it more if there was some music, and better charecter development. Honestly, i recomend you put out one great peice that took a week rather than getting anzious and submitting a days work. voices and humor would help tremendously.

Gregg-Dix responds:

Ya i know it needs a lot. I will try harder in later submissions. thnx.

[Emmy's Christmas Gift]

cute.

ok, so you arent the most graphicly inclined user, but the cutouts were good, and the mouth movements were realistic enough. i know lip sync is a bitch,m and you handeled it well. Fun xmas movie, even though i hate xmas. The song was awesome, and to an extent it was just disterbing. I found it funny, and good luck on your future works.

[Sonic The Lost World R]

i had isues with this

its so interactive that it takes away from the overall movie. You should get to the movie faster and spend less time on menus.

Next time, get some voice actors nstead of just having a few words and the rest text

Good sprite work, and the rest of the graphics were tight.

I realy think you should have had tails, cause hes way cooler than sonic or knuckles.

Also, you need to come to the realization, that knuckles can not fly. He gulides... and that means he is always decending unless caught by an updraft. That aspect bugged me.

Overal its messy but nice.

[Day in the Life of Cycon]

this made me have a nice day

I love this colection. I dont know why you dont pursue the flash cartoons more. Youre cartoons are hilarious and you do such a good job. I was so excited just when i saw this on the Judgement block. DCK kicks serious ass. The storyline was the same regergitated stuff, but i love ska music and that was a cool tune. Who is that track by again? in anycase I love the style, the music, basicly the overal product!

[Tier]

way cool

this is almost like the rules for timetrial 14, but we cant use that much red or use Alphas. Thats what i liked about youre movie. The lighting flashes on the machinery with alpha blinking white highlights. That was so stylish. It was like a dark Target comercial, with only the few colors. I dont realy like the band Rammstein, but it fit well, and the machine moved like an eq. it was well coordinated, and overall good work

[Bovis Eps.1]

a great start to a series

It may not be the most original idea, but it was hilarous and random. Youre charecters have definate inconic value and i totaly want to see more of these, which im sure you were planing on doing anyway.It was done perfectly as far as graphics are concerned, and the voice acting was fabulous. Just try and polish yuoure jokes a bit, and add to the overall storyline with some kind of lesson, and you'll be set. Great job

[I Will Beat Pacman!]

i have beaten pacman!

you play till level 255, and after that the game locks up. My score stayed on the machine though. It was unbeliveable. Only took me around 11 hours. After that though, the game lost alot of meaning, so it is possible. I liked youre cartoon though. You did a good job.

[Music Video: "Squirrels"]

heres youre problem

The graphicswere good and prety and clean, but there was too much blankspace, too many reused symbols, too many pointles tweens across white backdrpops. If you would have kept the backgrounds roling like you did for the "raccons palmtrees bathroom" part, you would have scored significantly better. the song is tooo slow, overheard and dull or newgrounds demographic. theres not any humor in something we've heard so many times, and even the original bestiboys song that the squirrel sog is parody'ing sucks. theres no voiolence neither... all in all, this is sorta boreing, and although asteticly pleasing on a whole, try to aim more toward what this demographic looks for.
