El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[(A)lonely]

hmmm

nice fbf. music is essential though.

[Mike on the Mic!!]

Hmmm

I do understand that the jokes were intentionally corny and that's ok I guess (the last one about the Tenessee divorce was actually pretty funny but also pretty old), but I think the whole routine would come across a bit better, if the audience acknowledged the jokes with silence rather than laughter, perhaps with intermitten cricket sounds. That way the flash could come off as funny even if the jokes aren't either that or have "Mike" be a little more of a self depricating comedian (like Conan O'brien) and accuse the audience of giving him pity laughs, or of being liquored up enough to think he's funny. I think that could really give a lot more character to this flash. the drawings and animations are by no means bad, but they seem rather generic, and the opening announcers voice seems far less than enthusiastic, if your spoofing stage comedy you should really sell. Let your audience really get into the mood. other than that nice flash, and it looks like you've come a way since I last saw the preview for it.

[Backwoods]

Nice

You really captured the character of the song, and I like your cartoony style this is going in my favorites

[The West]

Excellent sense of style

This was great, very well put together, it really draws the audience in.

[Wild Salmon in Trouble]

Very informative

Great narration, interesting visuals, and a fitting "nature" soundtrack combine to make this a professional level nature flash. All in all very interesting, the only thing that maybe should have been added is perhaps a way to identify if the salmon you buy in a store comes from fishermen or from fish farmers.

[A Rhino's Stomach]

Absolute masterpiece

In EVERY way, animation direction music, timing to music comedy, I could go on, but you get the idea. Keep it up!

grabbelfant responds:

Thanks, still some stuff could be improved, I hope you will see that in next animations

[Dog Of Man]

Quite disturbing

Very well done, you really set the mood you were going for, which is the difference between someone who is "just an animator" and an artist, and you are the latter. Nice use of tetured backrounds as well, and very unique concept, looking forward to your next piece.

[Chris & Harry]

Amazing quality

And great easter eggs too, Funny, and genuinely amusing.

7/5 13/10

[frame two]

Nice movement

Matches well with the music, and, yeah, you should definitely make more.

Voiceover responds:

Cool. What do you think about the art?

[Hungry]

Top Notch Animation

The style itself has such great character to it. You are a frame by frame MASTER! Everything looks so creatively done, none of that generic stuff we all get so used to seeing here. You are truly revered.
