El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Seizure Moutain]

hmm

one point for being the oldest surviving "seire inducing" flash on Newgrounds, luckily, I seem to be immune to seizure, but not too much immune to spam flash though, nothing really happpens here beside the flashing colors Not to mention it eally could be dangerous to those who do experience seizure which really isn't a funny concept at all.

[A Legend: The Mourner 3]

nice

very well done and dramatic as well, and once again, great choice in music, the song was somber yet epic. I think that your overall style has gotten better over these 3 animations for sure. I still think that there should be more movement though, as some of the animation is still unanimated objects moving around. Very nice story though. and altogether good production.

[Grannys Driving Adventure]

erm

the concept was good , but it was carried out poorly the drawings need a lot of work, the animation was okay. I think your choice of music didn;t match too well with the scene but it didn't ruin it either, also, this flash was very short and the ending was a little too anticlimactic.

[A Programmers Hell]

well

You actually painted a somewhat funny and fairly realistic scene from most people lives I would say. The entertainment value on this was a bit low though due to shortness, and the excruciating realism that is insomnia.

[The Truth]

meh

you tried I guess, but this didn;t really come across as funny at all, yeah the priest picture was a good one, not there was no sound and it just really didn't have the humor it needed to be an effective spoof.

[Doughboy's Revenge]

Nice

I enjoyed watching this, it was a fun little story and pretty funy as well, the drawings and animation could definitely use some work (ever heard of elbows?), but good use of sound and I got a kick out of it.

Lukidge responds:

haha thanks man... as for the elbows, at the time i was kinda mimicking the south park style (very crudely). which was also a convenient excuse for sucking at computer graphic design. if i had access to a scanner during this era, i would've hand-drawn everything.

[A Complete Waste of Time]

heh

at least it was aptly and honestly titled. I think that there was some more validity to this just through it's own admission of what it was than there are to a lot of the flashes here.

[Lauran and the tank]

well

drawings were simple but fine, but animation and facial expressioning were a bit lazy, plot was okay but a bit thin, and it seems like more stuff really should have happened here.
