El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ronin Warriors Pass Gas]

ehhh

The humor was soso it wasn't bad, just not good, plus all the voices were the same, the voicework was not bad, all the lines were clear and audible, they just had no character to them. The graphics were terrible, they weere just still pics with mouth movement added which always givesd a real bad look to a flash. Might be funny for younger viewers maybe, but 5 year olds really don't belong on newgrounds.

[Return of the joint]

heh

The ending way pretty fucked up, let me start with that, but aside from that, the humor was actually okay in this flash, nice use of the music and general feel, some of the drawings could've used some work, but some were pretty good, animation was okay, but there should have been more movement throughout the flash.

[Elian, Reno, Castro]

heheh

the graphics coulda been better, but I though that this was a funny cute little parody and I got a kick out of it. Good voicework on this one too the impressions were'nt necessarily accurate, but the voices were funny nonetheless and that's what counts sometimes. Nicely done.

[Tai Die]

hmmm

I can tell you put a LITTLE effort into this but not much, there was no sound, the drawings were poorly proportioned, and it was about five seconds long, not to mention the lack of a background or plot.

[1st Easter]

hmmm

kinda funny because of how sacreligious it is but the animation was really lazy in this, the graphic of the rotting bunny was pretty sweet though, so props for that. okay ending as well. Seemed like there shouldhave been more to this one.

[Pocket-Sized Blair- Ep 1]

hmmm

I have to admit is is kinda funny, but this is just one of many inside jokes that's probably best shared among friends that makes no sense to the average web viewer. The FFVII music made it sound so epic but in the end it was just a goofy little joke you played on some fat kid from your school, I bet people who knew him got a kick out of it though, so it's not all bad.

[NO SMOKING 2nd edition]

hmmm

way too short, and humor makes no sense, the drawings are kinda, mmm, odd in a lazy sort of way, the animation is okay, but the whole thing doesn;t really get the don't smoke point across, or really give that much humor.

[3rd Grade Samurai]

heheh

I don't excactly know why I liked it but I did, I guess just the sheer rediculousness of it, drawings and animation coulda been better, but I still enjoyed it.

[Crazy Bill Bojangler 4]

hheheheh

probably the most disturbing of these so far. It was really funny when he came back from after the break with the bloodstain on his crotch. The mouth movements look wierd, but I've gotten used to that with this series so it doesn't bother me too much. pretty nasty visuals, but good work on this one.

[Throw Something Out!!!]

hmmm

Don't really get what's happening here, the drawings are well shaped, but the shading effects give a really cheesy look if you don't know how to use them, don't feel bad though, most people don't myself included, but I've seen it used well in more complex patterns for a metallic effect. Anyway, the running over was fine, but it seemed like there shoulda been a story or something behind it.
