jonthomson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[You are a F*cking Moron5]

The best one yet

Brilliant stuff once again, the highlight of the series so far. The little "picking up chicks" segment was funny in itself, and the main Bush part of the movie was priceless. As Reginold says, he could have gone on and one, but you've picked some classic Bushisms which makes for great humour. Excellent.

[You are a F*cking Moron4]

Another fine installment

Another good episode in the YAFM series, not as good as the last one but still using the same funny formula. I guess I didn't find it as funny because I don't really care either way about the morons in question. Nice little video midway through the episode, that bit was great.

[You are a F*cking Moron3]

Best of the series so far

Great stuff - Fred Durst is somewhat of an easy target, but it made for great comedy and the movie had me laughing. A marked improvement from the first two episodes, this is classic stuff. The new co-host was definitely better as well. Nice job.

[You are a F*cking Moron2]

Better than the first one

I liked this episode more than the first - the "viewers letter" was funny, and the whole script was better overall. I wasn't convinced by the co-host, but in general I'd say it's an improvement.

[You are a F*cking Moron1]

Pretty good but nothing special

I don't know whether this gets better as the series goes on, I haven't seen them yet. I thought this was OK but nothing spectacular. Nice drawings and animation, and the sound was clear, and the dialogue was alright. I just didn't find it massively funny. Definitely worth a look though.

Excellent sci-fi style movie

You've got to love this one - great graphics and tons of action. The slow motion effects sure look cliched now, but the movie looks better with them. The Aphex Twin soundtrack works very well, and all of this makes for a very nice piece of flash. Excellent stuff.

[Basics of HTML]

Good HTML tutorial

This isn't something I've seen in flash before - should be useful for anyone who's wanting to start out making a basic webpage. It all seems to be correct. You ought to do a sequel showing how to do a few more complicated things, like frames for example.

[Shadow Govt. Puppet Show]

Fantastic comedy

This is brilliant - it's taking a cheeky swipe at the dumbness of politics and being hilarious, all at the same time. Cool idea, nicely drawn and with a great selection of music. It's long but never dull, a must-see flash movie.

[The Void II]

Great sequel

A fantastic piece of clock-based flash. It all seemed rather Independence Day-esque, which is no bad thing as I like that film. Great graphical effects, and it manages to get some humour in as well. Only bad point was the sounds - the music was great but the voices were often unclear, and there weren't subtitles. It's not a huge problem and doesn't interfere much at all. A fine creation, please bring us the conclusion!

[Newgrounds Museum]

Brings back the memories

Great job with this Pox - sure brought back a lot of memories from the days where Assassin was Newgrounds, when Cat Dynamics was updated and Club a Seal was still popular. Very nice drawings, shame the sound isn't looped that well as those are some nice clips. Also contains a surprising amount of NG information which is pretty useful. One for the older users to enjoy and the newer users to learn from, good stuff!

Yeah, good times. My only regret is to not have visited the BBS sooner. I sure missed on a LOT :(
Now the BBS kinda... sucks. Its been going down the drain since 2002 it seems. oh well.
I know, those sound loops aren't tp notch, but its all that was available at the time. I SWEAR!! they forced me!
