jonthomson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[the first character]

Nice different flash

A bit different to many movies on Newgrounds but it still rocked. Nice choice of Pumpkins track, and some very good black and white graphics, they suited the movie well. Didn't make perfect sense but it was still good to watch.

kospas responds:

Thank you for your kind words, jonthomson.

[Possibly Serious Suicide]

Nice Foamy parody

Not bad at all, pleasantly enjoyable. I have to agree with the previous guy though, that file is rather large for what this is - I can't see why though. The sound could have been a little clearer as well, but these are fairly minor problems. Good for a laugh, definitely.

artificial responds:

ok

[What I want for Christmas]

Lacking in many departments

The score seems about right - the flash was way too short, the sounds were bad and quiet, there's a great deal of randomness about it and the graphics were nothing special. As a quick violent short, it just about passes. But it's not something I'd watch more than once.

Omnibus responds:

Yup. That's all I was going for really. I,m surprised it didnt get blammed actually.

[Sniper whitout goal]

Improvements could be made

As far as mindless sniper-killing movies go, this is in the middle of the pile - the soundtrack was too quiet, the graphics are mixed between average and crap, there's not enough violence and the movie's too short, and the filesize is large for what the movie is. Optimise it a bit, tidy the flash up and make it longer and this should score higher.

FOX-111 responds:

If you some people took time to read the description, it say that Im bored and did that whitout point.
I know this is shit, I just post it here to make some changes...

[Extreme Thingy]

Please...

In the future, if you want people to comment on your animation and give tips, post it on your own website and link to it in the Flash forum on the BBS. Don't clutter up Newgrounds with stuff like this - it's way too short, has one poor piece of action, below par animation and the sound wasn't good. It wasn't funny, violent or good.

[Sunday School 07]

Sick but funny

That's some pretty funny stuff there - this is one series that I've missed and will catch up on later. Interesting plotline, not great graphics and poor voices, which are rarely in sync and sound bad occasionally, but the movie's entertaining. Some nice subtle jokes on the posters too!

EricSullivan responds:

Thank you! The voices in this episode suck big time compared to what I've attempted in my other movies. I really have done better, but I just wasn't into this episode very much.
In fact, next to #3 & 4, this is my least favorite episode.

[Happy Washing Machine]

Agree with Violet

Yes, definitely original if rather short. Fairly good graphics and adequate sounds. Longer would certainly have been better, the length is the biggest problem with this.

Mr-Derp responds:

Mr Derp: Go suck on a lemon

Techneon: Adequate??? THEY KICKED ASS!!!!!!! Thanks anyway

[Dazzle #1]

Original? Nope

You've just copied the graphical style of Gelatin Guy (see 99K) and made a short, boring swordfight. As such, it didn't look too bad but it was way too short, not interesting and unoriginal.

IcE-3D responds:

how in any way does this look any way like that person in 99k apart from the shape of the head wich is a circle! common!

[Satoshi And The Disk]

Poor stick movie

This really is bad - it's too short, not interesting, looks bad, has below par music, the fight isn't long enough - there's nothing to recommend whatsoever.

Satoshiji responds:

Sounds alot like the other review.

[A Kitty's Dream]

Dull

I didn't like this - there's no real good elements to the movie, it's simply boring. No real plotline, not many sounds, and below par graphics. Not one of my favourites, needed more content. I guess for a first flash it isn't too bad.

whosnotgrey responds:

......remember dude...it's my FIRST flash. yeeeeeeeeeeeesh, i'm not looking for sympathy, but c'mon!
