shades90's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dr Whooves and Assistant]

You will never understand the hatered I have for you for creating that cupcakes movie, and I will only feel contempt when you are gone from the face of this planet...
still, this is really good. Def gets 5/5 I still wish for your death.

Forgiveness is best earned rather than given, I suppose.

Subpar animation, horrible sound mixing...

the story was... interesting, but ultimatly made little to no sense. Why was the bird crying in the end? Heck, what was the motive for the bird killing him? I should read the story by Milburn.

regardless, you could have at LEAST fixed the sound transition and I have seen better art/ animation/directing in these 48 hour flashes.

funkycaveman responds:

The stories have to be modified to save time. The bird was possessed so he killed the boy. I have posted the ending of the story here, but the whole story can be found in the forums. Yes there might be better art but are those animation 4 minutes long?

Genious

Li,ke usuall good sir. You have superb voice acting skills. Hilarious how you line up the dialog, and Gigantor's facial expression was gold.
Your unique scripting is brilliant. Even without the voice or art, I can when you write something.

sad yet true

[Base Times Height]

So true

I understand this so much. I am a science guy, but I hate math because it lacks application. When I relate it to the real world and real things, it's easy, makes sense, and is actually fun.
Numbers mean nothing without meaning.

thats a great way of putting it.

[Tibetan Fox Returns]

funny, but falls far behind the first

I like this series, I think it is funny, and I will use my incredible analytical superpowers I received after being bitten by a radioactive structural engineer to determine why, and help you make it better:
As you must know, the Tibetan Fox is a serious looking animal, and the voice and attitude you gave him is absolutely perfect. In these movies, he is used as a reverse anthropomorphization of a type of person that much of us know.
The usage of the fox in "slice of life" situations and repersentation of a person with a similar demeanor, adds a comic affect where the viewer is like "omg, that is so funny, his face is perfect." The characters response is an inflated version of the uncomfortable feelings we recieve when a person acts like that; a weird dull person.

What you lost in this episode is the relation to the response and the action. The WORDS of the fox should cause the discomfort, as did the "oh, huh, yeah, that's great, yeah." In the first, the fox showed a rude, "i don't care" response and continued to respond to the person in such a tone. This is a situation that a person relates to. The face of the fox is a perfect magnification of the demeanor he is showing. The fox is also a freaky looking animal. Both of these aspects make the view laugh hysterically and not know why.
FOR OTHER REVIEWERS WHO DON'T CARE TO READ THIS: It's funny because you relate it to real experience and similar people.

WHAT I WOULD DO:
If I made this episode, this is what I would have done:
For the first, a simple atmosphere was acceptable, since it was a new idea and the situation as a whole took place in a simple, unnamed environment. This is not only a sequel with the same idea, but also takes place in an detailed setting, so it requires a specific setting. I would have added a static of a house party with some ambient party chatter and music in the bg. Also, I would have tried to color the characters. Of course, this may not work out well and may revert white filling. Another thing I would try would be to cut out the head of the fox and put it on a human body also in front of a party background (not in same frame as the people.) Replace the hands of the body with fox paws and make him hold a glass or something. This also may not work, and would revert to just a fox cutout in a party background.
The humor in this one didn't make much sense either. The fox seemed to make the people uncomfortable with out much dialog that would create an uncomfortable situation. The look of the fox should not turn the characters off, it must be the comments of the fox. Also, do not point out the fact that he is, indeed, a fox. The fact that he is interacting like a human in a human environment adds to the humor. This should be more of a slice of life comedy more than an "omfg, he's a talking fox." The characters seemed to be freaked out by the fox's stare alone. In the first, it was the comments of the fox that were enhanced by the face. The comments cause the reaction in the story, the face adds the humor.

The first deserved a 10/10. This one, meh.. not so much. Put some more time and thought in both the art and humor and it would be gold.
feel free to pm for help. ^_^
good luck, i would like to see this become a successful series.

also, diversify the voice for the human characters.

ChibiWeeWee responds:

WRONG god you are so dumb LOOK POINDEXTER the thing that's funny is the look on the fox's face that is the joke right off the bat and the fact that it's just a fox is FUNNIER if I cut and pasted the head on a body it would lose the effect because okay look the position, the stance, and the facial structure of the fox are ALL coming into play here, his slight offcentered position gives him the impression that he's off lurking in an unimportant part of the "party" and how he's standing cocked sideways implies his disinterest in the situation at hand tibetan fox 1 worked the way it did because the focus was on the face and it introduced the character who is this fox who looks down on you but you never know exactly why. if i used that exact same joke and delivery again what would be the POINT okay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! id just be rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic it would be pointless!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tibetan fox returns introduces a new joke where its not so much his dialogue that makes the characters uncomfortable but instead the culmination of everything the photo of the fox implies when put into the dance party situation the dialogue can largely be considered filler although it compounds upon the tibetan fox 1 personality in a different way, that is, implying that he looks down on you but never really revealing why, and its done so way more ambiguously!!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont see preybirds doing that shit!!!!!!!!!!!!

[//Necropolis Xenophobe]

hmm

+12 for pro-grade presentation
-5 for making science the bad guy and fanatical religion some sort of "truth"
fuck off

JazLyte responds:

lmao wow, thanks for not paying attention AT ALL then writing this review. good job man. Just because the church won in this toon doesn't mean they're the good guys, both sides were intended to be crooked and fucked up, just like real life.

[OTB - Dogfight]

well that was retarded

Do you relize how good you could have made that? Really, you absolutly ruined it with the sword and lack of the action that was being built up. I am going to assume it was supposed to be funny, but it wasn't. At the end i was like "uhh-ok..."
you get a 6 for animation, which was stunning, but really... why?

RadioTubeClock responds:

Glad you liked the animation at least. I wanted to do something unexpected, I can always do more serious stuff in the future.

[Well, That Was Easy]

great, not epic, but far from trash

I liked it. Interesting story, kinda... idk, too far fetched. Animation was pretty good. but one thing.... the ailerons were going the wrong way...

PapaLongLegs responds:

hahah thanks, and are you sure about the ailerons?

[One Big Morphing Orgasm]

Whoooaaa I'm tripping ooout duuudee

Very awesome. I love these morph things. Do this again, but use color, I know color will be much harder but it would make it so awesome. Also, toward the end it morphed so fast that I couldn't tell what it was morphing into. You need to stop or slow a little at each finished product.

TheBoogley responds:

Yeah, maybe we will do a colour (a fancy colour with a "u") sequel. Oh, and the morphs were supposed to slow in and out of each other, but some were harder to get that working with than others. Thanks for the review! :D

[Dawn of the Madness]

umm

I am really sorry, but I don't think I can give you a very productive review.
All I think I can say is that anyone who doesn't give this a 10/10, 5/5 needs to kill themselves.
Epic man, just epic.

LittleLuckyLink responds:

Heh, people have different opinions but knowing that you wish death on anyone who doesn't like it tells me that you are pretty dedicated.
