Urthen's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zombie Knockout]

This isnt really flash, you know.

While the premise of zombie boxing is amusing, the fact that this is just a screen capture put through an avi-to-flash filter is kind of lame and probably did not take much/any effort, let alone artistic talent.

[My Games: Hot or Not?]

Amusing, to say the least.

Man, you should not be wasting your time doing reviews for games with the "apparent" talent. I say apparent cause there wasnt really too much animation.

As far as game reviews go, this has to be the funniest way to do it though :)

But I have one question... If you based your characted of of the Jinjo, why didnt you make any mention of Banjo-Kazooie :P

The only thing I have to say beyond this is WHERE THE HECK does everyone keep getting those buttons. I have seen those SAME EXACT buttons in SEVERAL movies. If they were original, it would be cool, but I have seen them all over the place....

MonkeyforaHead responds:

1. I did review Banjo-Kazooie, and Banjo-Tooie as well. I also noted that the Jinjo was a character copyrighted Rare in the credits.

2. Those buttons come with Flash. You just have to know where to look for them.

Thanks for the review anyway. ;p

[Spiderman The Movie]

This is crap.

One: Lack of plot.
Ooooh. He got cancer. Wow.

Two: Half the graphics, I hate to break it to you, look quite blatantly ripped from something. Like the people in the beginning. And the DNA molecules. Paintbrushes dont paint right triangles. I took a look at your other movies and they are a completely different drawing style.

Three: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPENED. Especially during the whole "he got cancer." scene. If you have to tell people "watch the whole movie before you vote" then theres probably something wrong.

Four: Never, EVER, tell someone to "stfu noob"

B-Mung responds:

U comment make non sense, u think u flash are better then my's? if not stop making like u the best, cause u not.

[Meter Dash]

It was ok.

It was pretty good, for the first like... half. Then it just got long, boring, and VERY same-ey.

The guy was only mediocre, nothing really amazing. Kind of an imbellished stick figure in some parts.

The flashes got really annoying after a while, especially towards the end, they kinda got off track from the music and was making my eyes hurt.

Also, the loading time was very long. Did you do any sound compression at all?

Last, but not least... I HATE people who beg for high votes. If you get a low score (2.18, at the time of my posting this, is decent however) it means that the newgrounds community doesnt want whatever you made.

Polish the movie up a bit and chop out some parts and it would be a lot cooler. I liked the ending :)

Totty responds:

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate this comment :). I'm not begging for a high score-I've been told by various veteran animators (synj being one) that this deserves a higher score...oh well!

[NGBG: Grime vs Sqeezy]

Hard time deciding, but...

Since both flashes were excellent, I guess I have to vote by the fight itself.
While grimes flash in itself I think was slightly better, his "fight" was bad... if existant. Too short, though right to the point. Squeezys was long, and humorous. Especially in the end.

But thats not the real reason I voted.

Squeezy, you win, cause that monkey with the cymbals was badass. :)

[Lock Hawk Down Trailer]

Started out well, at least...

First off, If you made that music, or even just edited it to fit with your movie, good job. It sounds great.

Second, the movie starts off amazing. I loved how the guy was shaking as he was throwing the grenade and stuff. And the helecopters looked really cool.

But then, you kinda started to stop caring...
You used a top down view on the trucks, making them basically rectangles with a line in them, then three different colored dots came out.
Then you did a rotation around that card lock thing i guess it is, showing him surrounded by soldiers, which in itself would be cool.. but then suddenly he was up against a wall?? Not much sense to me. I might have just missed something but it was bizzare.

The series itself, if you continue with it, looks like it could be good. But, like many who post previews on newgrounds (Myself included!) the series often never comes to fruitition.

Good luck.

[Final Fantasy Jeopardy 02]

Heh... craptastic graphics, but the humor was ok.

Heh. The graphics sucked, I have to be honest with you. And there was a remarkable lack of animation whatsoever. But the script was pretty good. Heh. Testicle lips.

[Terminal Stupidity Ep.3]

Well, the graphics were good....

Graphics were pretty nice (Post office sign was evil though, and stickman Joe's house? Lay off the rainbows.)
I liked the blowing hair + wings
Girls voice: Uuugh. And thats not the microphone either.
Rest of the voices: Their pretty good.
Humor: Uhh... please, please, make a script :/ This kinda seemed like you just animated as you went along.

PartiallyCorrupt responds:

LOL, actually I did animate as I went along! LOL! Glad you liked the graphics. You must have been the first person to notice the wind blowing the hair + wings. The girls voice, well, I need someone to do her voice. I been using mine and speeding it up. If you know anyone who will do her voice, IM me. Thanks for the review.

[VOYI: DVD Version]

Waas ooook

Music: Good
Idea: Good
Sprite QUALITY: Good
Sprites as graphics: Bad
Voices: Bad (At least try to sound italian :/

[Bob the Ball]

Can I marry you?

This is the best work of flash I have ever seen. At first I was thinking that the size was a little large, but the hand drawings are awesome! Whoever the narrator is did a great job too, easy to hear, no static or background noise. W00t! All my 5s r belong to this!

mlaskaris responds:

"Best work of flash I have ever seen!" Woohoo! I'm putting that quote on my desktop, and my resume as well! I thought my narration kinda sucked though (shrugs). Thanks for the vote!
