r-17's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[IH-MAN or HE-MAN?]

Good lil' short

Definitely a short though; you should make something a little bit longer next time you submit. However, I like your drawing style. Los idiotas could be pretty funny if you stick to it. ^_- Rock on man!

[Damaged 2]

Quite cool

I thought that overall, this is pretty cool; it looks like you spent a lot of time in character designs which can be hard to translate into animation. The music I think give it some great energy.

Just a little advice; I think perhaps more color & detail would definitely enhance the feature, though, I realize that its supposed to be a gray world. A bit more plot might be good for future productions, but, heck; this is flash, not Sundance. Maybe flashdance. Anyway, great work!

Manga-Otaku responds:

Flashdance.....

Hmmm.....

[What Do We Do With Him?]

Ha ha!

Wow, thank goodness I've suffered through more than a few Dr. Who episodes on PBS. That's pretty funny; I especially liked the the Doctor sitting next to the Dalek on the roller coaster and the adequately low-budget thoughts of some of the monsters. One question though: What is the significance of the music? It is not very timelordesque. All in all, not a bad little flash, and not bad at all given that its poking fun at classic sci-fi hero.

nightshade-pheonix responds:

After watching all of the seventh Doctor's era, I found that the music was at times utterly ridiculous (orchestra hits all over the place!) so I thought I should give my animation suitably odd music :D

[Wrath Of Tetris]

Not bad; quite funny.

I think that what you might want to do though is just speed this up a notch. Pac-man doesn't go slow...he's blasting around trying to avoid ghosts. And he'd certainly be going much faster if he was in a frantic panic having the remnants of the Soviet blocks crashing down on his lemon-head. Some facial expressions probably couldn't hurt, but I think if you took the same cartoon and made it go even 25% faster, the rush would capture the gravity of the situation.

The idea's histerical though, and your animation is really clean! That was a nice touch, switching between themes. If you did speed it up, I'm sure you could dig up a few remixes to go along with that. I know it's hard doing stuff in 3D, but that was some pretty sweet looking flash. Keep up the awesome work!

TheoriginalBW responds:

well good idea, but then it would've been very short, and if i made it longer, there'd just be alot of the same stuff for too long to be fun.

[Tin:The Incompetent Ninja]

Not bad, not bad at all

Normally I don't even like the more violent stuff, but this is great. The drawings and animation are great too. I'll bet you could do a lot more with it with less gore, more humor, but it's pretty good as is. Keep it up!

SnafuDave responds:

Thanks man! I'm so gald you liked it. Next time I might have to do a funny non-violent one or something. Thanks again.

[Wally the Water Drop]

Now that's edutainment!

Good luck on your future assignments man; that was pretty funny.

luminousnerd responds:

thanks -D (cyclops smiley... =D is getting old)

[Munchkins]

Awesome!

LOL! I don't think that it matters that I can't read the subtitles. Nihilive, you rock!!

Nihilive responds:

Thank you, but if there is an overwhelming demand for English subtitles I will try to do them in my spare time. I am working on another project right now, but I am mostly concerned with my music and school right now.

[Blue Man:Op. Blue Thunder]

Bleah

With a name like blue thunder, I was at least hoping for a Kuno spoof. This is egregiously violent, repetitive story and art, though the music ain't half bad.

Redmond-Ramos responds:

Sorry for the loss of hope. dont know what Kuno is though, never heard of it.
thanks anyway.
