Coop's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Minefield]

Unstable foundations...

...should not be used when building, as this leads to subsidence. Metaphorically speaking, this is what I feel about this flash.

The sound is decent, but you need to actually act the voices out yourself, or get a friend to, I'm not that bothered.

Your graphics need work - I'm not the biggest fan of sticks, but these are poorly animated ones. Was that a gun in the first scene? It barely looked like one. Still, working on these can only improve you.

However, this has the beginnings of a decent plotline, which must be nurtured, so that it can blossom to its full potential.

I'm getting quite philosophical about this flash...

Thanks!

[The Matrix Mayhem]

Needs a few little tweaks

Like maybe a health warning, for starters. No-one should seriously try and destroy a CRT monitor with a hammer. The Cathode Ray Tube is a deadly piece of kit and you were lucky. Cut your finer? Serves you right, dude!

Still, that was an amazing parody of the Matrix. Trinity seemed even more manly than I remember (if that's possible, for a butch lesbian like her)

I like this and could just imagine you doing a parody of some other films - ever considered doing DOGMA?

How long did it take for you to come up with something like that?

AlmightyHans responds:

i actually didnt cut myself dude XD, all it was i thought i did but i was an old scratch made by the cat XD

yes, trinity is butch

i'm actually considering making THE LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY in 30 seconds, acted by me the way this parody was made.

this took me about 3 hours honestly, it was all improvised. i'm sure if i end up making the lord of the rings parody, and think it all through, it'll be cooler :D

THANKS for the REVIEW!

[Luis is an Animator...]

You've done better

Well, what can we really say about a quick flash like this?

Firstly, the drawing style, while it looks slightly shitty, it also looks quite effective. I've only put the scores so low, because I know you can do better - I've seen proof!

Was that yourself singing? If so, get into a talent show, you might be able to earn yourself a few prizes for your voice as well.

The plot of the song was bizzare, so I'm not awarding anything for that.

While I look forward to some of your better animations, I don't look forward to any more like this!

LuckyLollipopLad responds:

How do you know I can do better? Maybe in terms of design the game's better, but you haven't seen my other animations, have you?

Thanks for the faith in me though!

The audio was a large number of tracks, all with my voice on a cheap mic. Nothing else.

I'm astonished by the compliments! Ta!

Unfortunately, I'm a lazy guy, and whilst I hope to finish one full animation soon and begin another, also soon, it'd be wrong to promise anything.

I give my games and bike-riding higher priority.

[Sherbert the Cat 3-1]

Getting better

The animation is a little slow and jerky still, but I'd say you are making progress. I'd have suggested that you actually use speakonia for the phone voice, since Sherbert thought it sounded like StrawberryClock.

The main problem the animation has is that it's far too short. You could probably fit the rest of the plotline into the alloted space for the episode, so why not try?

Anyway, those few small niggles aside, I think this is a decent flash. Your skills are improving, although I do not like the flatness that some of the pictures give off and moving Sherbert's legs / paws looks a little lame. Keep up the work, I look forward to 3-2

Jonimator responds:

Thanks for the review! The reason it's so short is because of the music, it takes FOREVER to load. maybe it's just my computer though. I didn't use speakonia because I didn't want to download anything, that I'd only use once. And if i did i'd get into the habit of using it, 'cause i can't stand animation's with that.

Once again thanks for the review. I'll try to work on sherbert's walking feet cause it slightly annoys me to.

[The Snowball Cartoon]

Snow, music and... a tank?

Well, that's a great way to deliver a music video. The tune isn't really anything special, but the quality is all I'm looking for here. With no static and the fact you tailored the animation to the length of the track, means you've paid attention to it.

The punchline is funny and again, you've written it really well. The funny thing is, when some factors work better, the little imperfections with your animation style don't look so obvious.

Give us more, I quite enjoyed that one!

Jimtopia responds:

Yes, snow, music, and a tank. Anyway, yeah I was actually pretty proud of myself here, I timed it up very well. So expect more, because they can only get better! :)
