Coop's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Arry Podder deleted scene]

Needs subtitles

Well, here we have a decent selection of pieces coming together - you've put some sort of long haired ginger douche with Daniel Radcliffe, probably imitating Ron, but that's about as far as my knowledge of Harry Potter goes, to be honest. Your rendition couldn't be worse than the shite that Warner Brothers seem to keep churning out and making millions from.

I think that there is a definite need for subtitles here, as I couldn't understand a word being said by anybody in there, except for the Cartman-esque "sweet" that finished the piece off. Granted, there isn't much that people need to understand, as the pictures are quite clear on the subject, but it's still nice to actually understand what is being said.

[The Mac & Cheze Show]

Was that a dead mouse?

I'm almost positive it was by the end of the loop, but I think that I should know better than to expect proper flash movies from you :P

The start seemed demure enough, but it just came back to be a real kick in the sack, when it moves to video that wasn't particularly good quality on the video front and the theme for Sandford & Son seems over used, particularly on things like this. Oh well, I suppose it wasn't the Benny Hill theme.

You could or even should have had some animation there with the mouse running up to the cat and saying "Look [cat's name], I made cupcakes! Want to try one?", then the screen goes static and the cat eating the mouse video rolls. Possibly some cupcakes and a tray lie discarded to the side...

[The world don't move]

Dear God...

Well, it's a little "close to the mark", with the fact that he just died, but then again, what can we expect, when one of your number is indeed Corpse Grinder Clock?

The animation was actually pretty well worked, with even the blinking of the clock face making me smile, as I struggled to find things that I could discuss on this flash.

Surely, when the "remains" come out of the grinder, it would just be mince - the drawing you used is very much like a mincer, so you could have produced sausages or something like that, if you were going to the ultimate tasteless icon. Black Pudding is a popular English dish, if you're looking that way again in the future.

With the way that it's come together, you need a better picture of Coleman and some better quality music. Work on those and you might even make a slightly less offensive flash, by having the quality to actually pay tribute to the diminutive star.

[<blank> (0m41s)]

Simple and quite effective

Not really a bad piece, with all things considered - the movements of the characters in here mesh nicely with the sounds, which was always nice to see, thought the main limitation was the fact that it's only 45 seconds long.

I thing that the best way forward with this is to make more solid looking images, as opposed to the really thin lines like you currently have, as it does look a little "wobbly" in places, with the lines being so thin.

The only other thing I could really advise you to do is to add more of a splash of colour to the proceedings, as black and white isn't the best way to cover the ground here. Still good work and keep it up!

"more solid looking images" Next time I do frame-by-frame I'll keep it in mind to work on keeping my lines straight. Thanks for the help and encouragement.

[Edbert and Otis ep. 6-10]

Aside from the vocals, great

Well, this isn't your best piece - there is some good humour there, but when you take into account the way that the vocals seem to have been recorded too close to the mic, or too loud, you do lose something in the quality.

Some of the jokes you can see coming and as a result of this, it does make them funnier - kind of in the sense of watching a Road Runner & Wile. E. Coyote cartoon, where you can see that the plan will fail, but it's a case of working out the details.

I think that this piece could benefit from tidying up a little on the level of the animation, just to give the overall piece more impetus and a sense that there is some improvement to be made.

DWARFINATORclock responds:

I intentionally made the sound and art as obnoxious as I could for the Edbert & Otis series. When I made the first episode I made it hoping it would anger people, however people ended up loving it and asking me to do more. Since people seemed to love the original recipe I figured I'd stick to it.

Thanks for reviewing my movie.

Surreal ramble

Well, what can I say here - this is the most surreal story time that I've ever experienced. The drawing style even made up for the lapses in plot and the way that the story teller doesn't entirely know what's going on. Particularly the par with the pirates and the fact that the narrator actually makes a cameo there. Such things led to me laughing along in a bemused sort of way.

Have you considered just doing vocal work? Some people could really use your range of voices in their flash works. I know that you used Speakonia for the clock voices, but the narrator was another good voice that you've shown us.

In spite of the drawing style of this, you've made a pretty damned good piece here that is certainly worthy of mention on any day other than Clock Day, so why not submit something outside of the day itself?

[Review Request Club]

DWARFINATORclock responds:

The narrator in this movie was actually voicedby my buddy Blackmagic. I used to submit movies outside of Clock Day but in the last few years I have generally been too busy to make flash movies on days outside special occasions, that's why I have been submitting less flashes.

Thank you for taking the time to review my movie.

[Vintage Voicemail 2]

What the hell happened there?

Drunk? Scripted? Completely out of left field? I suspect a little of all three, to be honest.

Some good animation, as usual, with a very good interpretation of the events, but I could have seen a little more work on something like the background. Just seeing the one excited guy jumping around was a little basic and judging by the background noise, there was plenty of people that could have been animated. Perhaps even some captions for some of the shit that he came up with. Dick support? I have no idea, personally... wait, how about Viagra?

Still, a funny piece of audio that you dredged up from god knows where and a decent enough showing from the other aspects. Good stuff.

[The Beast Snacks 1]

Wow - very good work

A very impressive piece that certainly keeps me coming back for more. There are always going to be issues with pieces of such magnitude, but overall, it is a well polished piece, with good writing, decent voice acting and audio quality. I think that some of the voice acting does get taken away from by poorer quality audio. If you guys tried not to shout into the mics for some of these lines, you'd be better off, though it could mean that you need a better quality mic.

Still, it's left on a very nice cliffhanger, with some woman that we don't know the identity of and I'm sure this will all become apparent soon enough. The two guys being teenagers and ignoring one another over thethings such as the problems with the well mechanism and so forth is pretty insightful about people of that age group and I'm sure that you've been there before to see it first hand, so I won't bore you with further details.

Looking good, I hope to see future episodes soon.

[How 2 Make a Ngs Username]

"In that case..."

Say hello to my new username - AgitatedGorilla. I think that we're just proving what an award winning idea this is and as sich, the whole process is absolutely wonderful.

Thank you to LazyMuffin, as the cameo here was truly worthy of making this piece award winning, along with the ever-so-slightly patronising attitude of the introduction of RedHarvest.

This piece is a hot bed of nice animation - nothing over the top here, but it's still got some good finishes to it; good audio - both the music and the voices worked very well; and finally the writing has provided me with a good few laughs, which is always good to see in a piece like this.

Bring us more Newgrounds How to - how would you tell these people with Awesome NG Usernames to get noticed on the BBS, for example. What about telling people not to follow the best users around and ride their coat tails to fame, not sticking their heads up the mod's arses and generally being a spammy retard, or trying to look really disturbed?
