NinjuhBoyBLU's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kero Kero Groove - License to DIE!]

Some of Chain's dialogue is very quiet and is overpowered by the music. The animation looks great, not much story but audio mixing really needs more consistency.

tofokyo responds:

Thanks for the critique, I'm hoping to have the audio issue fixed soon- as for the writing, I definitely understand, and will try to improve with my future projects!

[I Can't Draw]

Wow

I haven't come on newgrounds and laughed that hard at a simple dick joke in a while.
*claps*

SkoopleFloop responds:

Glad I achieved something :)

[You Want To See My Tits?]

Do you want this cake?

I really hope this isnt a revival of that old ABS bad quality fad again.

JunkYardAnimations responds:

hahaha i guess it is similar, i'm just trying to entertain ppl sorry for annoying you:P:P:P

[A Newgrounds Christmas]

Winter 2009

You win.
Other than that This was great man.... oh gawd Tom wow.

Jazza responds:

[Jet Vs Rapid]

I write long reviews

Nice work for your first flash animation. Coloring and character designs were ok nothing to detail which is good.

Some things that you need to look into for the future.
Perceptive and camera angles.
- You do alot of good work with perspective but alot of the fighting was done with overly used close up shots.
Although there's no scenery, not having ANY background at all gives you no boundaries so make those guys fight all over the place not just in plain view. Keep me guessing.
Last thing with the fbf you need better transitions. You have to add more transitions to your characters when moving them across the screen at that speed or else it'll be hard to follow and just be incomprehensible. I litterally had to go through it more than once to see every bit of the fight and still felt lost with the random choreograph.
- You showed me you have a good sense of humor at the end which is great for changing the mood in a "fighting" animation but with any mood you need good timing. The ending joke seemed to ironically go faster then the fight did. I'm not sure if it was suppose to be funny or not but i didn't laugh. So sorry about that in advance.
Music and sfx is a big part of flash! This is ok now but you have to learn how to incorporate audio with the visuals to become an even better animator!

tl:dr version
I gave you a 5/10 it's not bad but giving you anything over that would give you the impression that it's perfect. You still got stuff to work on and motivation will help. Keep up the good work hope to see more from you in the future. :]

TaraGraphika responds:

Awesome man, I write short~~

I would also agree to take this a 5, as you know if I use the excuse of me doing my first flash, you guys won't probably like it. so, I'll just say, next time, I'll keep it slow, understanable, SFX, etc.

....This is my first Flash....Will make more better ones.=)

[Metal Gear Koopa Ep 01]

well...

I'm not going to assume you're lying when you say this is your first time animating with flash but I pretty sure I've seen a mock trailer of the same name of this parody a couple years ago.
(Just don't use that line in your authors comments it gives you nothing but sympathy votes and IMO that's just sad.)

I wanna review this fairly but from what I remember the trailer I saw of this was way better then an extended series. It was a brief presentation of the concept of Mario and metalgear mix.

But unlike Super Mario bros Z , (which this is probably inspired by) where AlvinEarthworm uses the theme of dragonball z, you have to rely on the metal gear story more then it needs to so you're basically showing us metalgear again it's not appealing, and not even a parody.
You're not doing anything original copying the dialogue word for word and replacing keynames with mario themes won't cut it for me.

So concept is ok but it doesn't have enough to fuel a series. But don't let this stop you you look like you put alot of work into this so just try to change the dialogue and add something more to it because It's boring to people who have played metal gear and confusing to people who haven't.

TehShaester responds:

That trailer you speak of was done by my original partner, Glukom. Originally he was staged to animate and I was staged to write and sprite, alongside the number of spriters from Pixeltendo who helped back then. Sadly it fell through, until now.

As for the dialogue.. well, since it'll be a little while before I move on to anything for a second episode, I'll work on a more original progression while keeping faithful to source material as I can. Perhaps I stayed a little too close to the Metal Gear side of the fence in this episode. Thank you for the suggestion, it's appreciated.

[Short; Candy Corn]

Damn...

THE ONE FUCKIN TIME I DON'T TURN ON THE SOUND
FFFFFFFUCK
Not sure if that's fail or win oh well the animation short but was decent but idk you might get negative comments from bitches ... you should have made the icon of something sonic related to attract more kids lol idk im old

Toughset responds:

Hah! Well, that was the idea to scare people. It IS halloween after all! Yeah, it's not my best, it was a rush job.

[Halo-Re-Evolved]

THIS IS SO COOL

LIKE I'M ACTUALLY PLAYING THE GAME OR WATCHING YOUTUBE :UUUUUUUUU

Ignore the first comment but that's probably what most people are thinking atm
The markers are a nice add but I doubt that would change anything in game none the less effect gameplay.

Dilly89 responds:

Well, you never know when there may be some flood or elite hiding behind a wall waiting for you to come round so he can beat the shit out of ya!

Better safe then srry I guess

[Phoenix Ash Opening]

Look pretty interesting

Ok start for your first flash.
Kept me interested to the end
didn't really notice any antagonist in this put i'm ehh i'm not picky.
though some things you should keep in mind for future work.
You Focused alot on the coloring, more the the animation itself.
Try to add more movement to your characters so they aren't so stiff
it just makes everything seem like pictures.
I would suggest try frame by frame animation
it makes things more fluid and life like (DON'T ABUSE TWEENS THEY MAKE THINGS LOOK HORRIBLE) and that would mean cutting back alittle on the detail that you put so much work into
and also try taking advise from comments that don't just say "omg nice art great animation" ...because that won't help you at all. Also sorry for the blunt response I try to be clear when I want to help....Good luck with future projects.

Dayu responds:

hi, thanks for the comment!

Yeah, the antagonist is not there, because I didn't know how to put him in the opening.
All in all it's not a finished opening at all, but I'll do some more animations and maybe change this one later. In a year or so, who knows.

Well, since I'm a beginner I didn't know how to animato actually.
Watched a few tutorials, but they weren't helpful. I couldn't find out HOW to move them properly.
I had the choice between drawing all the movings frame by frame as you said (I love details so I couldn't do many in the end) or just move the characters and drawings (the only way for detail suckers) .

I've seen people drawing frame by frame, but their animations were only black/white.
I want my animations colorful.
Maybe it's impossible, idk. I'll figure it out somehow, or I look or other tutorials.

[Relax Tomato]

meh... It was ok

Gave you a 5 on this being generous...
If it was for a animation final I understand but it seems kinda idk lazy compared to your other animations because there wasn't much "animation" in this at all.
Nothing really new if you've seen this part in the show everything is in the exact placement nothing really original but with the audio I can understand that.
One thing I liked was the lipsyncing tho it seemed "blockish" (which is probably your style) all the mouth movement was sync correctly unlike other ppl on newgrounds

TimAves responds:

Thanks for that, at least you're being honest with it and I agree with you seeing as only 3-4 days went into it. Thanks! (:
