El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

[Demonoid Phenomenon]

looks good so far

Looking forward to the finished version

Krebskopf responds:

It's not going to happen, read the Authors Comments - the file was corrupted. The text in the actual .swf is misleading but I couldn't remove it due to the file fucking up on me. Thanks for the review!

[Inanimated]

Nice

this as really well done, and very well produced. The direction is excellent, and the humor is perfectly timed at the end there. AllI can really say is... well done.

[Me Bill]

hell yes

This is truly flash at it's finest, I'm impressed. This is extremely original, yet it speaks to everyone who feels they've been "processed" by the system. Keep up the great Flash.

[Cheesing My Brains Out]

hmmm

Not bad as far as spam flashes go I guess, but they do offer that now as a genre choice in the submission form, so you may as well label it that rather than "experimental" (original or unexpected)since this type of film has been done before and comes through the portal hundreds of times a day. I'm all for you making as many flashes as you want but have pride as a spammer at least and label it as that. Because as far as spam goes this might actually be more of a 7 or 8 out of ten, but as experimental it's about a one.

[Dragonball z ep 1]

hmmm

I like Dragonball Z too, but the way to express your entusiasm for something should not necessarily be to try to copy it, especially when you're doing it at a graphically lower level ie swtick figures, now don't get me wrong fan flashes can be ok and so can sticks, but they don't work very well combined. If you were spoofing a live action show this may be different, but you cannot emulate high detail animation with low detail animation, of the same or similar story and characters. I'd say your best bet is either to create a DBZ INSPIRED flash with different characters and plotline using current animation technique, or if you do want to try to make something someone will watch, make a DBZ flash, but make it well, draw it out don;t use sticks and take your time, even if it takes you months, because the end result will be worth it. Bottom line, better animation, or more original story one or the other, (both would be nice but are not necessarily necessary I suppose) .And keep in mind I'm not knockin' ya here, so don't think I am, I just see that you have potential and the drive to animate, so I want to make sure you don't sell yourself short. Good luck in your future animations

Well i like stick figure animations while I do agree I have alot to learn I do need to take mor etime as well. I'v tried full bodies i'm just not a fan of them I prefer stick figure animations lol. I do plan on working on the next one for a lot longer then this one and making it longer with a better story. Thanks for the review and tips :).
