El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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?

[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!

[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

blade55555 responds:

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 :).

[Deaths in Military]

pretty good

the aspect ratio kind of killed it though since it had white bars on both sides. Make sure you submit it in the same aspect ratio you made it in originally to avoid this.

happinesskills responds:

Sorry about that. I thought that the aspect ratio was 650 x 350. It obviously isnt.

I just checked the FLA & it's supposed to be 650 x 375. I'll resubmit it in the right aspect ratio. thanks for telling me.

[Monster - Cutezilla]

hmmm

Started out with great detail, such as the footsteps and the nostrils inhaling/exhaling, but then ends very abruptly, which makes it seem like you were taking you're time to make it good, but then just gave up before finishing.

sirDark responds:

nah man it was meant to be cute and simple at the end;P

[New Frontier-Chapter One]

Oh wow

That was awesome, cool stlye od drawing, and a catchy story to boot, I can't wait for chapter 2. There were only two things that bugged me a bit, but they did not detract from the story in any way., the first was the "rose character seemed like she could've been drawn a little better, she had kind of a strong brow and jawjine in the close shots which made her look a bit masculine, the second thing is that at the end, the angles the cars were faceing didn't match the angle they were actually moving at, so those are just two things to keep in mind I guess. Altogether though the whole thing was so well done that it more than made up for this. Hey when is Chapter 2 coming out?

Virgilcomic responds:

I am working on it. I have Chapter Two on Youtube, but need to play with it to get it to play in flash better. Hopefully late this week and each chapter not more than a week apart. Most of the animation is done, but some of the voicework still being ironed out.

[Walloheen Mobie]

Oh my god

It may be two days late, but this is fucking EXCELLENT. It may even be the most amusing halloween flash I've seen, just because it's dark humor is so well executed, well done. Oh, and don't worry about you're voices, They turned out perfect for this one.

EvilSeed responds:

I still think those voices sound really weird, never really heard myself recorded... well, in context, until now.... thanks glad you liked it.

[Boxcutter.]

hmmm

As far as random stuff goes, not too bad, but could've used a bit more detail, even though I can tell you were going for a pretty simplistic style, a little more detail, would've been nice.

Smiley-Bob responds:

Yea I know, but I'm lazy haha :D

[Sing you Sinners]

Hell yes

You are a true cartoonist, this is the best , I love the classic animate to the music style you used. Well done.

DarkShadow8181 responds:

glad you enjoyed it. :]

[Rocket Crotch Halloween]

Cool Style

Really unique and original, and fun to watch. Well done

lenkalamari responds:

Why thankyou
