El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cliff Dive]

hmmm

You should have made it longer, and the drawings could have been better, but you probably had fun making it with your little brother, and that;s what counts. it was kind of funny in principal though, cause I always imagine that happening whenever I see cliff Divers.

[Want to commit suicide?]

uhh

The concept was funny, but it was poorly cariied out the drawings were just not done very well and there wasn't much movement in the animation at all.

[Cross the road]

ehhh

This flash was just way to simple to be funny. The music was good, and the sound effects were okay, but the timing was a little off. At least you had fun making it and had fun with your friendthough, and that's what really matters.

[Rush - The Trees]

Very good

I liked your drawing and animation style, both were very nice, and the song is a nice one musically as well as poetically, it has a nice old english folk music feel to it. and, no I don't think the commentary, detracted from the quality of the flash at all, it was well scripted and spoken, perhaps a bit obvious but still interesting and true. Nice use of public protest photos, overall the flash came acros as being both entertaining AND educational, so all in all well done, and I bet it'll get a good grade too.

Arch-Angel responds:

Thanks dude, I'm glad you liked it

[Alien Boy: The Love]

hmmm

pretty cool, the drawings and animations were both pretty good, and it was cool overall, the voicework was a bit quit at points though, and the first half and last half of the animations didn't seem to really fit together too well. Nice song though at the beginning, it was pretty cool.

IZSBHR responds:

Thanks about the song, that was me playing :)

The two parts are supposed to be a humorous juxtaposition of the positives and negatives of love, the first half being two characters from the series who are in a successful relationship, and the ladder half being the series' protagonist, who struggles to maintain a relationship. The ending joke "How's it going, Ororon?" refers to a romantic tragedy in which the protagonist and his lover both die at the end. This is a joke that pops up more than once in my scripts, but with different names (Romeo and the other obvious ones were used in an as-of-yet unfinished script).

The characters and storyline of this series have not yet been established well, simply because my explanation script is long and complicated, and will undoubtedly take ages to make.

I hope that clears some stuff up, thanks for the review!

[Don't Forget to Brush]

hahahah

Great animation man, very smooth excellently drawn, and escpecially good voicework. There's been a lot of good stuff coming through the portal today and I was abouyt to give a nine, but then I realized that this is really more of a ten piece so here's ten. I really enjoyed, it, and I think others will too, it's just so frickin' funny.(and a good message to I suppose)

teh-mobile-sponge responds:

Thanks a ton for the great review! :D

[Mental Flarpp Juice]

Nice

Awesome collection of your work, although it was random and no story or anything, I had to give it a ten purely on the basis of its creative and artistic awesomeness. Nice frame byframing where used, and also basically just plain fun to watch, oh, and good choice of mellow music to match it. The easter egg thing was fucked up but still well done and pretty funny.

NhollowWearthO responds:

thanks im glad you liked my shit. My next flash will have a story most likely. and id think no one would be offended but i dont know.

[All Work 2008 & Before.]

Nice

Very cool cartooning style and nice display of your work, The fbfing is smooth and your timing to sounds is VERY good, except for in very limited instances. Altogether very fun to watch. I had to close out and restart it cause I got a phonecall, but I'm about to watch the rest now, good work man..

Jae responds:

Thank you for your positive review.

[DBZ:Frieza's REBORN]

wow

You are in some serious need of a spell check, this movie was short as hell and I spotted at LEAST 3 typos.Also there was too much text for the one second of animation than was shown.

[Lifestyles - Wino Joe]

erm

what's the deal with the overlapping sound, the drawings are okay though, but the animation isn't even close to fluid, nice try, though, it was somewhat amusing, just because of howw strange it was.
