grimview's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[INS | Show Reviews]

I'm confused as to what is going on here. Its either an explanation of a coming series or a history of failed projects. Either way I'm not familiar enough with the subject & the images don't help me to understand. This may have done better in the audio portal. The female voice is kind of fast for a difficult to follow concept, but has a range of emotions that make it more interesting then the other voices.

[Madness & Insanity (Pilot)]

Good animation & funny. I like the computer crying when it got hit. Prisoner Alien seems to know way too much about the ship & since we do not who was shooting, we will see if they have released an friend or foe.
Hat Guy talks too fast in the beginning.

Nixionic responds:

Ah thanks for the critique. The biggest thing I want to fix is the pacing with later episodes :D

[Metal Gear: Stealthy]

"I crawled here on my belly thru a jungles worth of mud, ridding on crocodile, which I subsequently ate."

The dialog is full of funny lines & the art is well detailed.

[Bunker City: The First One]

Did sheep girl respawn after flying thru the van window or what?
The main character seem much lower volume then the music. However, this funny & good action. I was expecting Dino Guy to be the doush bag causing trouble especially after the bar, but the dad was nice twist. Sheep girl's personality seemed go from one extreme to the other (care about the dangers of smoking - the city deserves to be nuked).

videojunk responds:

Yeah she's a clone sheep.

Also yeah I really gotta work on my audio mixing, cause I'm really shitty at it.
I definitely need to get better at keeping my characters consistent though, cause you're right she kinda did have a turn near the end there...maybe she was just a lil grumpy.

[Castle Nathria Raid in a nutshell]

It started off well. What the hell is with all the flipping back & forth between the knight & the sword for 20 seconds?

Electrocatcreations responds:

Well, we wanted to sync with the music and exageration in that scene, that doesn't work like we think =/

[Berry's Voyage]

This film puts PETA to shame. Its well animated & shows the real horrors that fruits go thru.

[Salem's Augmentation]

This seams incomplete. If its suppose to be a testimonial part of a commercial for augmentation, then its music is too eerie. Voice is good. Music is a bit loud compared to the voice. Maybe if I got augmentation I understand why i was watching this.

Kuniko99 responds:

Thanks, yeah this project ending up taking me longer than I thought and I really just needed to conclude so I could pursue my other ideas (hence the long black screens) Hopefully it comes across as more of an artistic choice lol. I'll be releasing a looped animation with the full monologue soon

[Disposable]

The good: Opening zoon thru the building hall ways. Unfortunately the quality level of animation decreases when it comes to people compared to the opening scene of the hall way. Well colored/ detailed backgrounds & still shots. 90's feel & music. Voice clear & Harly Quin like.
The bad: Text can't be read without pausing. You should be able to read it twice if you want us to read it once. Some of that text was funny, but know one will know due to zipping by & over lapping each other.

SentientApe responds:

Thanks for the feed back. Can you elaborate on the characters? Like their designs? Since no one was talking to each other I found it hard to edit two characters really interacting. (Its a trailer) so its more to try and get people interested for the final. Also this is more focused on Youtube where pausing for text is a normal thing. (More for the ending where I talk about things.) And the other part is just for the teaser so I dont have to use it thankfully.. gets rid of that problem. Edit: Not trying to make excusing just explaining my thought process. I dont have much if any feedback so any I can get is a god send. Thanks for your time.
