El-Syd's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Resistance Fall of Dan P1]

huh

Nice game shorts, but none of them was based on resistance, so aside from the convenient pun with your name, the title doesn't really describe whats going on, it was fun to watch, and the drawings were pretty good, the animation could use a little work, but overall, I enjoyed it and am looking forward to part two.

PenCapChew89 responds:

Thanks v much dude, Im more of a flash artist I usually draw cartoon images of famous people lke Kurt Cobain, Jimmi Hendrix etc... the names kinda just a play on words and doesnt contain RFOM but I will consider it for the future
Thanks for Your comment

[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.

[M0ThAfUKKiN MurDuRer]

unwatchable

that's really the only description this needs, aside from the music, no work went into this flash whatsoever, an drawing animation humor or storyline.

aggelito responds:

you a b1tchn***a!!
this was made 2000 FFS!!!

[Black Hawk Down]

HAH

I think what made that so great wasn't the frame by framing, which was pretty good, nor the backgrounds which were visually nice and well designed, nor the cool subtle camera movement, but rather the fact that this flash has excellent comedic timing, and just when you start to think its a serious artistic style flash, the humor takes a serious turn for the hilarious and just gets so goofy, which on it's own is good, but when combined with the beginning of the flash with the somber music, becomes completely hilarious. Well done Kyaztro.

Kyaztro responds:

Thanks, I'm usually a hit and miss kind of guy

[CIGAR WARS]

Hahaha

I woudn't normally vote so high on a film piece, but the animation was pretty good too, and most importantly, it cracked me the fuck up, especially when the cigarette was lit during the fight, that was great, good work on the lightsaber graphics, and the intro was funny as well, nice ending too alaround, that was very enjoyable to watch, You're a very original, and funny flash artist, so keep em' coming RatherRandom.

RatherRandomReality responds:

Thank you, sir. I know The Force is strong with you also and you should start submitting stuff soon as well. Peace.

[Totally Random]

cool

Nice little showcase of skills/ Your drawings and animation both have a very fun cartoony style, and it was fun to watch, it was a bit too random for me, but I still liked it, which I expected to cause your stuff is usually pretty frikken cool. Keep up the good work, and oh, please don't eat my brain.

Calicard responds:

Very well. Thanks.
