S4cr3d-Cr4p's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[50 Frames Collab 3]

It would be a 10, but...

I can't give a 10 to something that has no audio compression. For god's sake this could have easily been 3 megs with no audible change.

aquaticmole responds:

Without the audio compression the file would be 11.0 Megs.

[The Painting]

Very nice!

The animation could do with some work, but I like your message and use of music. You are good at conveying emotion and meaning. I look forward to working with you on the Asturias Collab. One thing I noticed, which made me think you weren't being sincere:
S mile
E njoy
I nspire
L ive
Reverse the first letters and you realise what those teachings are. :P

Unspoken responds:

Thanks!
It really means a lot to me for letting me in ^^

(and about the "L-I-E-S" thing...I didn't even notice that) xD

[We Hate It]

Awesome music video.

I especially love your incredible lipsinc and all of the laughing segments. Pure genius! Keep making these!

[Megapokedigimangs]

Loved it!

Very funny. Nicely animated as well. Good sense of timing. Do some more :P

[Shooting a handgun]

Reasonable animation, but

you shouldn't have put this on NG. It holds no entertainment value. It's just a test. It could've done with sound, as well as a better blast effect. You really need to work on your gradient use as well - I mean grey to yellow? The only way you could get grey to yellow is if you had white in between... maybe try that. But don't submit it here.

tsa1 responds:

There is not written anywere that newgrounds can not contain videos, witch shows flash arto, such as flash precision drawing, shading and animation, when i make my movies my creativity is on the highest level, and all this takes time, this should in some way be entertaining, and over half the people reviewing this movie, gets entertained by it.

[Valhalla Knights 2]

Very nice! One thing was irritating.

The fact that you decided to make the girl spirit thing be naked. If you are going to go down that route, at least be consistant. Why didn't all of the bad spirits spawn nude as well? Yes I do realise that that would be a bit weird... penises and all that, but I think that the only reason she came back naked was the fact that she was a girl. If she had been a he, he would've had clothes, I almost guarantee it. For that I dock you one point (not that it will make much difference).

Granfaloon responds:

Heya!! haha awsome at last someone ask me that, at the first episode if u watch it u'll see her clothes ripped by the energy of the spell, that also was an excuse to leave the girl naked haha i like some mild nudity in my animations as you can see on real legend (navy) alien report 3 (girl coming out of the shower), red riding hood ( hood in underwear). haha Im like a little pervert, I love drawing the female body i draw a lot of naked girls (not porn or hentai , more artistic stuff) and i want to express that in my animations, I hope lots of users read your review so they know why too. I hope this helped you a bit and thnx for asking man!

[Gift of Ages]

I am an athiest, but...

I still gave it 5/5 and 10/10. I can appreciate the cleverness of the symbolism and story writing as well as the fantastic animation and musical quality. The timing was perfect.
Not that I agree with the message, or the religion behind it, but true art always shines through.

[Gravity's Just a Theory]

Very nice, but I can't help but feel that...

...it was a bit of a missed opportunity for something truly great. It was almost entirely random, and I think it would've been better with some sort of coherent theme to the randomness. Maybe like starting out with a problem, such as a sad cloud, which then rains down tears setting off the kind of reaction that you animated. Then at the end the cloud looking around at what it has created and smiling. Something along those lines. Sound wise, it was excellent, as well as animation (though the explosions possibly could have had a bit more volume).

This would've scored a 9 or a 10 if it had had the above-mentioned cleverness and linking. Perhaps a sequel is in order?

Oggy-cheese responds:

brilliant idea! thanks, and to be honest, i didn't expect it to do this well, it was just a little doodle i came up with, but i'm not complaining :D i would do a sequel, but it might get old. It was a struggle trying to fill up a whole toon with this sort of stuff.

[The One Layer Collab]

Twas brillig,

but the slithy toves of varying quality did gyre and gimble while pulling the score down in the webe. All mimsy were some of the parts but the mome raths really shouldn't have been included. Overall, nice idea, but I think you outgrebe'd your welcome by making it drag on too long.

[Conditions2: Consequences]

Again, weak story, weak acting.

Why didn't the cop just take the gun out of the criminal's hand? Why didn't he just change it into a spoon? Why didn't he just stop the bullet? Why didn't he just lift the criminal off the ground? Why didn't he just kill the criminal by rearranging his atoms?
MASSIVE PLOT HOLES.
You could've at least been a little interesting with the story and made it be about the corrupting influence of the glove. Oppressive state and all that. But you had to go with the whole: "cop loses everything then goes on a rampage". Please try to be a little more innovative in the next episode.

DJJ-asshole responds:

About the gun thingy, I guess you're right, but it's a matter of time before he shoots his wife.

And I can guarantee that the next episode will be better.
