The-Great-One's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[APPLE.MOV]

Let's start from the top. The artwork and animation in this sends me back to the styles of "Ren and Stimpy" in its humor as well as artwork, when used in the aspects of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic it opens up a lot of possibilities for facial expressions and overall humor. The music fit well both in the actual world and when Applejack was tripping. The story is a wonderful parody tied together well by the voice actors, the Fat Albert voice for Fluttershy was amazing and surprisingly fit well. All in all this is an outstanding and hilarious movie that hits all its notes perfectly. Kudos to you sir.

[Mario's Castle Collab 2]

Beautifully Done

Well let's get started. This took a lot in the process of creation, I know I followed the collab thread. To be honest I absolutely loved it. The animation in each part is simply masterful, there's not a flaw I can find. The sketches ranged from funny to hilarious, with the best being the finale by Mr. Lange that had me laughing until I was crying, but if the other entries weren't as funny I probably wouldn't have made it to the end so overall this was quite funny. The music I'm a bit hit and miss with, I liked the Mario music, but the commercial music used just didn't seem in place. The sound effects were spot on, no real complaints here. All in all I really enjoyed this.

[The Great Chimp Heist]

Ape Escape Meets Grand Theft Auto

Well the artwork and animation are superb as always Mr. Lobster. The sound effects were layered in nicely and don't upset the song in anyway. The voice acting and the song are purely masterful, sheer perfection. It told a cool little random story and your characters are just as hilarious as always, I like the introduction of Hernando, Fernando's brother, also is it just me or did Randy get slimmer? Some workout regime perhaps? All in all this made me smile from ear to ear so I quite enjoyed myself and can't really see any flaws here.

thanks great one.
i didn't consciously draw randy slimmer - there's a lot of rich foods on the island though, maybe now she's left...

[RedHand]

Simply Amazing

Let's start from the beginning. The artwork and animation. Both are spot on and amazingly done, I have no complaints on them, although they are stick figures the timing and detail gone into them is just immaculate. The sound effects are perfect and this is important, mainly due to every little bit counting from footsteps as well as their terrain. The music choices were all outstanding and the voice acting from this cast was simply amazing. The story was a bit hard to follow at first, but I came to understand it and I can't wait to see more.

When it comes down to this flash movie you seem to be one of few Newgrounds members who have started to use Newgrounds properly in a way. Find and collaborate with others and all those you have found certainly make this flash shine. Kudos to you good sir.

Wow, thanks so much for the review man, i really appreciate it :)

[Harder, Tiffany, Harder!!]

Breakfast at Tiffany's

The style you present here is still apparent from the artwork to the animation, so nothing entirely new in that department from your past works. The music choice was good for the massage room, but I felt you could have had something else to fill in the backstory for "Tiffany" when he made his gallant pose, probably would've had a stronger effect. The story is just as much mindfuck as anything else you've given us and I love the quirky humor you brought here, not really disturbing this time around yet still has that charm that makes it bizarrely interesting. Something that your friends will certainly find surprising to see on their Facebook page that's for sure.

[TOME Episode 01]

Awesomeness!

The artwork is quite superb, top notch stuff here people. The animation can be a bit jittery at times, but other times it is top notch and beautiful to look at, especially the battle scenes. The story here is what seals the deal, chronicling the players of the game it's pretty damn cool to see. My favorite characters have to be Kirbopher, Nylocke, and Rockoon as of right now. I can see the love story set up with Alpha and Flamegirl right now, and I'm a sucker for a good love story... key word here is GOOD love story, so I'm hoping that doesn't get fucked up sometime down the line. All in all I wasn't too sure based off the trailer I saw of this, but after watching it I'm excited for the next episode to see where it will go next.

[Desktop Stripper]

Papa Don't Preach

The style you presented here is good, I especially liked how you formatted the desktop and the situations used for the stripper. Also it was a nice touch on the main character changing his shirt for each day. The animation is good, but not much is going on and the main character's keyboard typing is a bit lackluster. The story what can I say is freaking hilarious and I think that this could have been taken much further from what you did with it, but anything is possible in sequel land, I was wondering if she would blackmail him with a video she recorded through the computer of him masturbating and send it to his family and friends. The ending although dark is still actually funny and creepy kind of a shame that this wasn't release before Halloween. All in all I liked this.

LazyMuffin responds:

Your idea of her blackmailing him is funny, but I think that if I added it it would have somehow messed up with the fairly quick flow of things. Thanks for the review.

[Minecraft Documentary]

Crikey

Well the artwork was done nicely keeping that Minecraft flair while making it look nicer as well, however I think the trees could have been a bit better, they just looked weird to me. The creeper and other creatures as well as the adventurer all looked wonderful. The animation is just masterful perfect from beginning to end, I honestly have no complaints, it all flowed quite well. The story is hilarious and in a way makes me sad because it reminds me of the baby sea turtles at the ending. I guess the story itself is nothing really fascinating except the ending, but hearing this voice commentary as to come from a nature show just makes this flash great. I would certainly love to see more Minecraft Documentaries including talking with the skeleton as well as the Ender Man and of course the strange being known as Herobrine. Shoot a Blair Witch meets National Geographic take with The Nether would also be interesting to see from you as well. All in all I loved this animation and I want to see more.

[Beast- Kensei]

Short, Sweet, and to the Point

I want to say first that if is something that you do for something short, I could only imagine what you could do on a grander scale. The artwork here are stick figures who are given a good bit of life, but are still a bit on the simple side. I know stick figures are simple, but what you were doing with them here I kind of expected a bit more. The animation is perfect from beginning to end, everything moved not only smoothly, but I was truly amazed at the movement of these stick figures it was just perfect no flaws in my eyes. The sound effects were also perfect capturing everything quite well. One problem I have with this is no music, for something so short I don't see why you couldn't find something in the Audio Portal and match it here, next time go through the Audio Portal to see if you can find that perfect song. The story is very simple, a short fight, why is it called Beast though, seems like just a random title. Overall though I did enjoy this quick bit and would love to see what else you can do.
