Coop's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Retarded Animal Babies 15]

Quality parodies!

I love the parodies in here (with the hamster) and the music is great.

Makes me feel like jumpin too (though not off a tall building)

[Shoo Fly]

Very clever

A combination of frustration and anger, with a great piece of music. Reminds me of Fantasia, albeit a Manga version of it, with less Mickey Mouse.

I was expecting a bit of DBZ at the end, when she really lost it though.

[alice cooper]

Needs refinement

The sound is not too bad, but there is a trace of static. You need to do more than just animate one figure, who doesn't even look remotely like Alice Cooper to be able to cut it here.

A little more research and a refined drawing of your character (maybe add a few more band members, as Alice Cooper was originally a group of 5 people.)

I decided to protect it, but I feel it needs more work. Try another one and I'll see how that looks.

nicknaggriff responds:

its not supposed to be alice cooper, its just supposed to be a student, and i guess ur right about the static though

[The Mushroom War]

A little rough around the edges

A good flash here, though I have to admit I'm not really a fan of either sprite movies or Mario, I will say this is a good movie.

The scenes where you get close into the characters ruin it for me. With sprites, the characters look really bad when you zoom in, but kept at the usual small size, they do work.

And with the sound, either keep it as subtitled and have no voices, or voice it all. Half measures lost you brownie points here.

I'm not being negative, I'm giving you food for thought, so make a better one and I'll leave a better review ;)

Trunks responds:

Hey, thanks a lot for the thought out review!
I'm sorry if I zoomed in a bit too much for the sprites. Looking back on it, it does look a bit... ugly...

~~--==!!!The voices in the CODEC scene were there because it was making fun of MGS's speech scenes!!!==--~~

I am changing the file to make it more obvious.
Thanks for the food, I just wish I had some brownie points to wash it down... ;D

[Nutsy & Klutsy: Ep. 3]

Funny cliffhanger

I think this series has legs and will go a long way. And I thought the first two episodes were funny. The jokes are simple and effective, delivered through a brilliantly animated, well thought out cartoon.

I can't wait for the next part, as these aliens need to be really messed up to kidnap Nutsy & Klutsy

chubbybunny responds:

There won't be another part. You'll have to go to www.nutsyandklutsy.com and watch the whole episode to see what happens.

[Strawberry Valentine]

Poingnant

A wonderful portrayal of how love works both ways. Without it being both ways, it is not love, just obsession. Maybe that's where I'm going wrong...

I loved the use of the music, but I prefer it when you use voices. My only criticism.

[++Michimon++]

It started so well

but when you suddenly spent 5 minutes with a bear and a shark careering toward each other, I came to conclusion that you had run out of inspiration for this flash.

I thought you were just trying to fill up the music (which took up most of the file size, learn to cut them down) but nothing else happens.

You have the start of a good (3.00+) flash movie. Please don't let it go to waste.

Herut (Hebrew: çøåú "Freedom") was the political party of the Revisionist Zionist movement in Israel. It was conservative and nationalistic and became the main opposition to the Israeli Labour Party. Herut was led from its inception in 1948 by Menachem Begin and after 1983 by Yitzhak Shamir. In 1965, Herut joined with the Liberal Party of Israel to form the Gahal bloc though it retained its own organization within the new party and dominated the new formation. In 1973, Gahal merged with other right wing parties to form Likud, but again, Herut maintained a dominant role in the new party and the main leaders of Likud, including Begin and his successors such as Yitzhak Shamir have been Herut leaders. In 1988 the parties in the Likud coalition, including Herut, formally merged and Herut ended its independent existence.

Herut started out as a medium sized party with 14 seats in the first Israeli Knesset. It was considered to be outside the Israeli consensus, and David Ben-Gurion famously said he was willing to add any party to the coalition "except Herut and Maki," Maki being the Israeli Communist party at the time. It gradually grew, feeding on feelings of resentment against the leading Labour party, mainly among new Sephardi immigrants. In 1967, already being a part of Gahal which had 22 Knesset members, it joined the national unity government created during the Six Day War. It remained in the government for another term, but quit in 1970 due to disagreement over the Rogers plan [1]. It remained an opposition party until, now part of the Likud, seizing power in the 1977 Israeli elections. Herut remained the leading faction of the Likud electoral coalition until 1988 when Likud's factions formally dissolved and Likud became a unitary political party.

In 1998 a new Herut party was created by dissenting members of the Likud led by Michael Kleiner and Benny Begin. See Herut The National Movement for this movement.

Herut branches currently are active on five continents.

[On The Moon (episode 5)]

Merry Tuesday!

Well, aside from the selection of Mariah Carey as the music, I really can't fault this submission. Loved the Hitler joke and of course the usual jokes from Insanity Prawn Boy and the Toast King, but with a little festive twinkle

Looking forward to some more great ones in 2006, keep up the good work.

[Party Hard- A Bad Film]

A few rough edges

The film does become a little abstract in places, but it is a quality animation. The lip-sync is some of the best I've seen and though the graphics are cartoony, they fit the song well.

It might have been useful to try and think of other things to put in for the instrumentals, as just some wierd graphics of circles dotting about the screen just isn't Andrew WK.

Other than that it's a good flash.
