The-Great-One's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Pen is Mightier...]

Satire Through Art...

The majestic way that you gave the bullet shape, color, and style through animation effects that sync along with the majestic music it moved me. It really did. With the light comedy presentation given to something that is so dark when thought through with great thought put into it. This has been one flash that I have enjoyed and will enjoy again and again within the future. Thank you for creating this flash.

[The NG Rules]

Doesn't Seem Like Months and Months of Labor

First off this is a great idea and could be quite useful, but what you need is to give it more flare to it. Make it more colorful, more shiny! Also a pause button wouldn't hurt either and pictures would also give this greatness as well. You're on the right track you just need to spruce it up.

Nomader responds:

Don't worry. If I ever do make another installment, it'll be quality over crap. I think. :D

I'll try to add the buttons in... it's been a rather large criticism from most of the reviewers here, so I'll see if I can fix it by the next installment.

Thanks for the review!

Helpful Advice

First of all since this is a loop I'm not going to give you anything great out of it. Now then try starting the music when the movie plays instead of at the preloader. Also your work with sprites is great, but I want more of a story with it next time okay. I don't know how to compress mp3 files, but if you venture over to the Flash Forums I'm sure you'll find out soon enough.

[Shorts To Wear Pants To]

Bravo Good Sir Bravo Indeed!

I see this reaching the frontpage very quickly indeed. The songs, the artwork, the animation all came together so smoothly! Plus the sheer randomness put into each and every short was just magnificent. In which that is what randomness is supposed to be... humor with no effort. Also each song gave each short its well deserved honor. I see a sequel in the future I really do.

squeakytoad responds:

Yeah, I think this group of animators fits perfectly with Andrew's songs.
We're a pretty random lot and we were just kicking back and having fun with it, much like his awesome tunes.

Maybe we'll do more in the future, once he's had time to release a bunch of new ones (though there are still hundreds that remain unanimated). This was definitely a great experience.

Glad you enjoyed!

I'm Gonna Be Honest With You

This wasn't really good. You can do better with sprites than this. First off the music at the beginning that you chose was just horrible, I'm glad the rest of the music you chose was good. Also the first joke was funny, but could've used more of a punchline. Your second joke was okay not the funniest in the world. Your last joke was basically pitiful. This was far too short and was not given enough effort... I say you try again and then we'll see if it should be in the Mario collection.

You said: "*Put More Care Into Picking Songs"

Really, I just had the sound too loud.

[Office Booty]

Hilarious!

Very funny and very true. A creation such as this is great! The mild-mannered man and his plan that fails miserably. The animation was good, but it could've used color. Also the sounds of the office were great as well... and the guy walking up and watching, classic.

[Tetris Deathtrap]

Very Nice

This was very nicely done, in fact you should think about turning this into a sort of game. The animation wasn't all that great, it was good, but could've used more work. Also Stick Figures fighting within this Tetris Deathtrap would've really been awesome, but this was still good either way around.

IceyDrummer responds:

Ya i actually thought about that but i wanted certain people to die certain ways and i kind of killed them all off pretty early so i couldn't really have they fight but i decided that yellow and blue would work together til' blue wanted to go a different way...

[Ab0v3 the 1nflu3nc3]

Hmm...

Well it looks like the replica of the commercial with just you adding onto it, but then again your small part matches the artwork so I'm going to believe that you drew everything. Now then for the main thing of the flash... I was expecting something else out of this, but you pretty much used the same subliminal messaging that the drug companies and anti-drug companies used to make a spoof. If some of you actually missed it it was showing something stupid like a pirate and a ninja coming out of nowhere and killing the pothead due to the talking dog. It shows that no matter how you try to make an impact with an anti-drug commercial it's just going to look stupid in the end. Great job on this flash.

Funny Shit!

Ha Ha Ha! This was funny and different from what your usually sickness. I must say I enjoyed this... it made me laugh. Although it was too short. Try making something funny, but longer.
