El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[a Grand Old Day]

Hahaha,

I've been waiting a long time for this, it makes me want to get off my lazy ass and finish mine. Love the classic cartoon style, and all the facial expressions throughout the animation. Nice traditional melodramatic storyline too. Awesome.

[Zelda Files: Chapter 4]

Nicely done

Sorry it took me so long to see this, don't get on newgrounds much these days, good humor, and as always, I dig the comic strip style. keep it up guys.

[Mrs. Claus Wants a Baby]

hahaha

Such a realistic arguement, hahaha. I love the "puppet style" animation you used and the humor was good. Great holiday flash. Looking forward to more. Long live Happy Fatties.

[Charcoalmation]

Very Cool

Very creative and cool, and it's good to see other mediums such as charcoal used once in awhile, it gave your piece a very unique look. Nice message as well, keep up the good work.

Captain responds:

Thanks man. I do like to experiment with mediums so there might be more of this or something similar in the future.

[Native American Legends]

hahaha

The music really made the piece, as it's solemn sincerity contrasted so sharply with the humor. Short simple and sweet, very nice.

BillyNapalm responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed this one too.

[Remembrance Day Sale]

Oh my god

I gotta say your humor is definitely controvercial, but genius, I haven't laughed so hard in ages (even if I feel a bit guilty about it.) It really does seem like we over commercialize what are supposed to be somber holidays, and you did a good job of pointing out therediculousness of it all. Sinister, but great. I've got to check out your other stuff now.

BillyNapalm responds:

Don't feel bad, it's satire! I'm not trying to ridicule the Holocaust or any wartime atrocities, I was taking aim at how ridiculous some local retailers are when the 11th rolls around.

[Scatmambo]

Nice

The ultra skethy drawing style matches the fast energetic mambo music well. Nice work on the synching and keeping the style loose and fun, and what else can I say, great song, good music video all in all.

[Easy Way Out]

Love it

Does a great job illustration the pointless futility of life's cyclical nature, and Dylan was definitely a great choice for the background music. I think I remember seeing this when it came out, but I guess I never rewiewed it that day. Either way, great work, I love the style of this piece.

[Tarboy]

What can I say?

I was completely blown away by this. The first thing that I noticed was definitely your awesome lyricality to the monologue which is throughout the whole piece. Also, I loved the sense of rythm, noth of the movement, and of the speech, the character designs were great too, and the gestures used to portray both the workers and the corporate fatcats matched the essence of the characters perfectly. I ask what can be said about this because it is truly triumphant and epic. Although this piece is totally complete in and of itself, it's so awesome and with that that particular ending it deifinitely allows room for followup story if you are so inclined. Either way, let me know when your next flash comes out whatever it may be, I'm a fan, and this is going in my favorites.

[SW GangstaRap: Chronicles]

hahaha

I love how goofy and funny this piece is, and nice fluidity of movement as well, I can't give you a full ten though, because it's only a partial, and I don't think it does newgrounds justice to promote atom over it. Don't take it harshly though, I'm just pretty hardcore loyal for NG, still a great piece.
