naronic's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Gun Cums on Face]

not very good or funny, incoherent at best.

[VERDACOMB Trailer]

INSTA FAV

simply amazing that even the simplest of themes can make such a good flash.
Also a nice breath of fresh air in this parody pit of a flash portal

i smell a sequel...

danomano65 responds:

Well this is a Teaser Trailer for a graphic novel series I've been brewing in my brains for 2 years. I'm really excited about the stories and can't wait to get it going. I'm glad you are interested!

[Last Man Standing, part 1]

potentially good story, not so good start

It's been years since a person has dared make a series on newgrounds so this could potentially have been a fresh start but A;LSDKFHAS;DLFKAS BLAH BLAH BLAH LOOK AT ME SKIPPING AROUND THE POINT AGIAN SKIPPY SKIPPY SKIPPY

ALRIGHT TO THE POINT!
IS THIS STORY ORIGINAL?- NOT QUITE
DID THIS FLASH MAKE ME WANT TO SE A SEQUEL?- NOT QUITE

It's not so much the animation as it is the rocket proppellers you put on the story.
Were opened up to a eerie scene with a tv and some... off voice acting...
Then were put 100 years in the future with some mute guy coming out of stasis, wandering around a city, going into a building and (due to laziness i'm sure) a "will be continued" screen and that's it.
(doesn't really help that the story is standard post apocalyptic at best)

The animation was a little overly tweened and sketchy at parts, like you didn't want to do it.

overall good concept
try harder next time

["ClayMotion"]

very good!

you sir deserve a 10

[The Nyan Invasion]

um... little content

little to no substance sprite anims can't get more than a 5 from me

[GOLEM]

Good idea for your second flash

but the lack of content doesn't really constitute a daily 4th place
good, but feels unfinished

[Final Mansion]

compared with other stick animations at this time?

lackluster, samesame

we've got the usual nameless invincible protaginist
we've got the usual hoard of nameless punching bags hurling themselves at the protaginist at machspeed for the entirety of the flash
and we've got the usual nameless boss at the end

don't get me wrong the animation was acceptional (and maybe for you groundbreaking) but if ones not harsh nobody will advance.

bottom line
your going to have to do a lot more to stand out in the flash portalat this time.
a good story, perhaps?

IaMI2002 responds:

Yes Sir! It is not groundbreaking to me, kinda just "meh". I am so glad the community enjoyed it. I will strive to do better next time and thanks for the constructive review.

[Casino Vs Mario Vs Sonic: Ep.2]

Charming but cliche sprite movie

Oi, where do I begin... firstly as an animator you have bucketfulls of potential, I don't know why you would limit yourself to SMBZ style flashes.
But I came to review the movie, not to waist my time expressing my concern about your choice of animation expression so let's just get on with it

STORY/CHARACTERS- subpar, cliche, nothing I haven't seen before
I know this may be for leisure measures but let's be honest, looking beyond even the cardboard clone characters, your story could be interesting if you tried.

Try giving the supporting characters more depth because right now they just seem like cheap comic relief. I can't speak for the main character yet because I haven't watched your 1st installment so I won't mention him
(although I found him to be very annoying throughout the flash)

Second, branch out of the Sonic & Mario mindset that SMBZ has done so well to drill into our heads for the past 4 years.
Think, I know you can come up with better stories than this.

ANIMATION-Too SMBZish, awkward at some points, fight scenes lacked punch
Firstly if you're going to use sprites at least do a good job on concealing the edits.
Some of the sprites just looked like a mess of unreasonably thick MSpaint gradients, the shoes on the chao characters as an example

A lot of the 3D perspectives were just really fail, usually ending up looking like a bunch of irregular cropped bitmaps, the characters thrown in only making it look even MORE disproportionate

The fights, as I stated before, lacked bass
Yes there were lots of DBZ movie clips and wav sounds but it lacked any real camera/magnatude dynamics and I could tell there was just lots of image/movieclip tweening

It was subpar, you might want to work on it

HUMOR cursing- and maybe a few recycled SMBZ jokes
yea

Don't get me wrong this could have a lot of potential but it's just not there yet

Budj responds:

I appreciate the constructive review, but what do you mean by "SMBZ fight scenes" and DBZ sound effects and graphics? Especially considering this flash contains none of those things.

I hear you on the cliche' characters thing though (and the 3D part at the end I will admit didn't look as good as I'd hoped...). I'm still developing the characters, so next time I will make them less generic.
