commentor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

could have been better

i would have preferred something that made more sense. like if the tree and plant makes more than one grey creature, then should the planet be overrun by those little things? and what makes the grey things turn into the things they do? theyre so dfferent each time. and why do the corpses form the praying mantis so quickly when they took so long to form the butterfly?

i thinkt here could have been a lot of room for improvement. and a lot of stuff you could have done.

VillainousTurtleSLC responds:

Well the corpses form quickly at first and slowly second because each round is opposite. Notice that the first guy came from an arm, the second a leg. The first guy spawned while walking, the second while standing. The first guy spawned during the day, the second at night. The first guy talked, the second did not. The first guy caused a battle of hundreds, the second a chase after one. The first guys died from homicide, the second from suicide. The extra bugs, well, that's all part of the mystery of the planet!

nice

at first, i thought it cliche. the stickman's movements were too exaggerated, but besides that, i loved the idea of the golem thing.

Thanks!

[TOFU3]

let me walk you through this...

no, malade12. the story from beginning to end (not following order of submissions) is as follows. to make things easier, ill refer to the onein this submission as 1A, the one that he rescued as 1B, and the alien one as 1C.

1A finds the oracle and talks to him. 1A wants to know his destiny. the oracle sends him to the X on the map. 1A gets there, the yellow tofuzilla comes out. 1A kills it. then the purple one shows up. 1A kills that one too. the second one was 1B from when he dropped the time travel device. the reason 1B was in the tofuszilla after coming out was because he dropped the capsule as well. after finding the body. 1A sees the alien, who is 1C. 1C knows that 1C is 1A, but 1A thinks that 1C is an enemy. So in order to not kill himself, 1C escapes so that 1A doesn't kill 1C, and consequently himself. 1A takes 1B to the oracle who then gives 1A a disguise, which is an alien disguise. so 1A goes back. 1A probably took 1B with him. 1C wanders around and finds the time travel device that 1B dropped earlier. 1C takes off the disguise and returns to the oracle.

basically, the oracle is toying with him.

danomano65 responds:

the big thing is the gash on his eyebrow. just watch that and it's pretty clear what's happening. he goes to an oracle. ends up fighting two TOFUs. thinks he killed himself. seeks advice on how to stop that. oracle gives him a disguise and time device. he screws up by tripping and ends up fighting himself. watches himself go into the hut with the "dead" body and waits for him to trip. by the end he's accepted his fate and drinks some tea before he leaves to go back in the yellow TOFU. his path is interrupted by a giant white TOFU. its origin will be reveal in 4. i'm glad you are interested in this story. some people are being complete assholes and calling this a cop out. so fuck them. thanks man.

[Rise of the brotherhood 2]

ehh

1. too many pauses where nothing happened.
2. better if it was fast paced. fighting looked like a powerpoint animation.
3. voicing needs a little work. its ok, but could be better.
4. in the beginning, how did tails get in front of sonic if he got hit backwards while they were running?
5. most of the special effects like the part where the metalics turned white were pointless because they didnt do anything and they turned back anyways.

but it was pretty good. i dont want you to think that it was horrible. it was decent. im just saying it could be better.

Milanous responds:

Ok This is exactly the sort of critism i respect a well thought out one, with well made points i'll try and go through, them
1) Well made point and not the first therefore i will work on it.
2) I work at 18fps, I think it works better for this as 24 just seems to fast and the centre of it is hard to make.
3) Were working on it, but can you be more specific as to "which" of the characters need work (PM me if you like).
4) I didn't make it clear enough but what i was trying to make out was it was an area like a circle they were fighting within and they were pretty much running round in circles. I'm still learning lol
5)Metallix going white is there power boost giving them wnough of an energy zurg to keep up originally they were meant to attack as white, but i had to cut it out dude to extreme lagging.

As for all your points, i encourage it greatly, Everything can always be better and i am always looking to improve so thank you.

[Snowbot]

ehh

it was good in the beginning. a robot who plays a guitar. completely unexpected, like something that is stereotyped to be efficient playing a guitar that requires feeling i guess. or im overanalyzing it. anyways, after he flew away, it kinda went downhill. i think i liked the first part because the music created the scenery, but after a while, it just made him move and make noises with his mouth. the part i hated most was the part just before he looked at the moon. the music started to sound like some tune you hear on a merry-go-round. in the beginning, it looked like itd be deep or something i guess. then it just turned into a happy boring song :P

happy songs bore me

AKS9 responds:

well it's not really overanalysing to say that a robot that plays guitar is unexpected because music required feeling and robot don't have any. it's a pretty good analysis if you ask me.
as for the rest of your review, I dunno if you don't like happy stuff then to each his own huh.
just imagine that after end, the present falls from the sky and lands infront of a lorry full of manure, causing it to swerve off a cliff and crash into a village full of helpless women and children. then they torture the robot.

[Without A Mushroom]

hahaha

i loved the part where mario turned into the hulk and just pounced on the goomba xD

Sh0T-D0wN responds:

Tophat.

[Once at the Lesson]

ehh

it was good. but a lot of the stuff were repetitive. and it was pretty pointless to repeat them if they all made it. maybe one where they dont make it and they all try differnt paths until one does make it.

trul responds:

there is a point in HOW they made it, it is like a drama movie, no one dies ))
