El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Lady In White]

Ecellent work

Your style is so artistic and awesome. It's really nice to see something so masterfully done come through the portal, I liked your attention to the detail of subtle movements such as the wind through, the hair, and I thought you told a very good story here. The song you chose fits perfectly, and all in all it was really just a joy to watch.

Jolly pleased! The work payed of :)

[The Priceless Portal]

pretty good

actually, a lot better done than any of the other mastercard parodies up to this point, not that that's saying a lot, but it's stil a good thing.at least this one had actual drawing/animation, and the voicework wasn;t bad either.

[Pikachu gets it!]

uhh

very poorly done and unrealistic, it's just like a cutout, the gun sounds are well timed, but there are no death screams, the effect is unanimated and doesn't look like any effort went into it.

[Phone Personals]

heh

there was barely any animation, but the drawings were alright, I thought that the end was funny and you had good timing when you cut to that scene. it might have been better if you'd drawn the taco bell dog rather than used the photo, since it would give the flash more consistency.

[Doughguy Bloopers]

heheh

That was cute, and you did a good job of really making it seem like outtakes, the bird one and the gooey stomach ones were the best, but the keeling over in pain one was pretty funny too. your drawings and animation were good, and your voicework was excellent.

[Another Waste of Time]

okay

a little self depricating humor is always funny, and on that note you actually did an ok job, yes you are being honest that these flashes are retarded, but not surprisingly, these are actually a lot better than some of the flashes that are trying to be good, I guess it goes to show you that its al relative.

[ENEMY TERITORY]

Nice work

You really gave this a great action feel and the music really matches and accentuates that. I think the drawings were pretty good, but the animation, although also good, was a bit rigid at times, and could have benefitted form a little bit of fbf movement rather than purely object based movement.

[Creature]

cool flash

That was pretty good, you set a nice creepy mood. This would have made a great halloween entry but you were about 5 months to early. Oh well, I enjoyed it anyway, and I'm sure a bunch of other people did too.

[Prof. Ash's Guide To Life]

okay

the ending monologue was actually kind of funny, I think that maybe the actual events taking place here were a bit more random than necessary, but you pulled it together alright. I think that there should have been a few follow up episodes though as I do see some potential in this series, even if this particular episoode isn;t as good as it could have been.
