Nextrol's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ministix]

Scribblies!

It definitley wasn't the best stick movie I've ever seen, but I don't believe your intentions were to make that way. The Newgrounds Portal isn't exactly the friendliest place for experimination or 'test' movies, its geared more twards completed work. I on the other hand, love seeing tests of this sort as they reveal more about an animator's paticular style and compisition choices, like a sketchbook would a pencil artist.
This style itself can go places. I don't know if you inteded to use less keyframes for a 'jerkyer', more delayed movement, but it definitley works in this case. I think the music complimented the animation nicely and the absence of sound effects was a good choice. I would love it if you were to continue to develop this style and release more movies.

So wrong.. on so many levels...

Excellent movie!

Lol.. very straightforward shock humor. I love stuff like this!

[Teh Show V]

Good

Pretty funny sketches(fav was the bank). You certainly improved on your lip-sync as well, very good. The carrot and the bank sketches kinda had a Family Guy vibe to them(mouths were similar too). Anyway, good work.. make more!

Really Freakin' Awesome

Wow.. I can't believe I just now decided to watch this.. after hearing so many good things about it. 2 years later :P lol

Anyway...

It was really good on all levels.. the frame by frame for one thing was perfect in both character perspective and frame timing. I liked how you cut up 'Back To Mad', it flows nicely with the movie. Also, I like how you presented lighting in certain fames(with one or two colors), almost a negative style look.

Overall... very veryx10 good.

[CI: Unregulated]

Wow!

That was really cool!

It reminded of Homeworld in many many ways... which is great becuase I love that game. The graphics in your flash were all around excellent, I liked how you intergrated photoshoped images into your animation sequence. The overall animation was very smooth and gripping. The sound scheme was also excellent, you chose good sci-fi music and SFX. Overall, I loved the movie and will be adding it to my favorites. I'm confident that you will get front page!

Pretty Good

Your comedy was well thought out and mildly funny. It kind of reminded me of ATHF in a way. I liked bartalamew's personality and his appearance, but the graphics leave much room for improvement. I think you should continue with this and make it into a series.

ya thanx what's athf

[Opperation CresentMoon]

EXCELLENT

You sir are overwhelming with natural flash talent. This was amazing for a first movie!(most are crap, including my very first)

Animation: Nicley animated, I especially liked the traveling bullet and explosion effects.

Graphics: You can obviously draw well and you seem to have a good grasp on perspective drawings and backgrounds. This is a great skill that many artists lack these days. VERY GOOD USE OF GRADIENT EFFECTS! :D

Sound: Very good use of high quality sound effects. Next time though, try and stream your sound or further compress event sound effects.

Interactivity: Thank you for using the NG preloader ;).

Style: Heh.. that would be an interesting mission... kill the dough boy! Very nice. Good title too ;).

Violence: I liked how after the dough boy got hit, he was pushed into the oven. The explosion was a nice closer.

Humor: Heh.. at first I looked at this and thought it would be a serious war movie, but it ended up giving me a good laugh. The GI JOE thing was great... lol.

Overall: A great first movie! Just work on the filesize and keep practicing. You will become a great flash animator.

Thanks for the great review! My next one is gonna be epic ill probably spend a good 1/4th year on it, lol if i can find a way to keep flash.

[art vs artist]

Well.. I love it

As a flash animator myself, I know how difficult frame by frame is... and I must say, you have exceptional talent! Sure this wasn't that original but it was entertaining, well animated, and enjoyable to watch.

4/5
8/10

Overall: "A very well made and enjoyable short animation."
