Myst's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ANIMATION INVASION]

Hey that was really good !

Great job with it man, it looked really good. The animation was smooth and the frame rate was high enough so it could look real. In fact, it was definitely "realistic" animation-wise. I liked it a lot :)

[Pootytang Adventures #028]

At least it got a few frames now ...

Graphics : the images quality and sizing was ok except for wade's face that wasn't looking good at all. Considering the only vectorial graphics are the eyes, the mouth and the ! you add on the second picture, I think you could put some effort at it and add details at least. Animation-wise, it's lame and boring, I don't think I have to develop much about it.

Style : it's just plain boring, nothing interesting about it.

Sound : good quality and good song, appropriated for the animation. Too high quality for such a little and pointless animation though, reduce the music's quality and it'll give a more decent filesize.

Violence : none.

Interactivity : none.

Humor : I personnaly don't see any, it's just plain boring.

Overall : awful movie all in all. Put some effort in your work and it'll give something better, it's quite simple.

You should have seen #027. It is far superior.

[Pootytang Adventures #026]

And ... that's it ?

Ok, I'll try to find ideas for "constructive criticism", it's pretty hard but I guess you're used to it.

So eh ... I think you should start by lowering the filesize and a good way to do so would be to lower the quality of the music you use. You might also want to improve the graphics ... and may be actually put more than one frame in you movie, 'cause with just one frame we can hardly call it an animation. Another thing you could try to improve is the plot of your movie. You know, it was really interesting and it kept my breath away all the time, but I think you can do a little better though.

So, overall it was definitely bad bad bad, but you can get better ! All you need is to actually put a little, little effort in your work and you'll be able to do something thousand time better yaiy !

JujubeLock responds:

This review is extremely helpful, thank you! I will reduce the file size of the music by reducing the export quality from "imported mp3" quality to 16 kpbs, I will have multiple frames in the movie (probably more key frames than normal frames so I can do frame by frame animation as opposed to tweens), and I can make a riveting plot that Newgrounds viewers can appreciate, understand, and enjoy! Clearly I would not have thought of these ideas on my own so I hugely appreciate the time you took to review this film!

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 80]

Definitely bad, very bad

Graphically, it was terrible. You had a few drawn element that were ok (although, nothing exceptionnal), but the rest was only low-quality images that were moving a little here and there. The intro music was entertaining, but the rest, although featuring cool songs, was really clichéd. I don't think it's funny at all neither, but may be I just missed the point.

Overall I definitely disliked it, it was way too short, way too cheap and it lacked efforts. You should make it longer, work on the animation (well, actually "start" animating it), you could've also made the whole serie in one submittion since it was very short and most important, you should put effort and thougth in your work, would it only be in respect of the other users who works hard to make good content.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

It wasn't supposed to be funny.

There was animation in it. I don't know how you missed it. I think making this as one flash would have lost a lot of the point of this series. I think people can submit whatever they want here, be it crap or hard-work. This site is a place for flashes of all standards, not just the best of the best. There were also a large number of fans for this series, which I think shows beyond any doubt that these flashes deserve to be here.

[Coal Walk]

I'm not ... quite sure ...

Seriously man ... I can hardly believe you made that, not after your post in the BBS. Did you steal it or something ? 'Cause if you didn't ... well ... you're probably better than anything the computer could've done for you, great job.

[The IIDMDTT Part 01]

Haha that was great !

Graphics = 9 : very good. Clean, simple and sweet graphics, not exactly outstanding but almost worth a perfect mark.
Style = 10 : simply great ! If I could I'd give it a higher mark, it was really brilliant !
Sound = 5 : no headphone, couldn't hear anything ...
Violence = 2 : not exactly the point of the movie
Interactivity = 6 : near the higher mark I would give for a movie, interactivity belongs to games ... mostly
Humor = 8 : once again, it mainly resides in the style, but still, that was pretty amusing !
Overall = 9 : GREAT animation, I loved it a lot !

NightShadowTWO responds:

nice score breakdown! ur missing a lot without sound :D

[Say Something!]

Hehe I guess that's many people's opinion

It really is utterly annoying, but now I feel better :)

[About mass voting]

I don't think it proves anything ...

In fact, it's just a crappy movie that passes ... it doesn't prove anything, it could just mean the star syndicate mass voted it. I'm not telling you it's the actual case, I'm just saying it doesn't help you at all. Just another really bad movie for the star syndicate ...

[A bouncing ball]

Eh bien, un première année de TIM!

Salut mec, beau projet, tu as rajouté un scénario même. Tu t'es compliqué la vie et tu n'auras pas beaucoup de points pour, mais c'est pas mal!

polxonE responds:

Merci de ton encouragement, et effectivement, je me suis compliqué pas mal la vie... Mais bon quand on aime ça!

[Battalion 7 - Episode 3]

Not bad, keep on working

It's not bad at all, but there's room for improvement on evey point, just need a little more work.

By the way, congrats on getting the 1337iest filesize ;)
