AfroUnderscoreStud's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Jangalam]

Hmm, it was alright.

I liked the parts with the hands and the people at the end as it just created that sense of msytery really well and it got me intrigued by it, but apart from that it wasn't very interesting, the part with the lines was alright due to the fact that it was perfectly in time but everything else was just pretty boring, especially the start due to the fact that there was no noise. You really needed to have noise at the start as the silence just made it seem even more boring than it actually was, it wouldn't have been that great with music but it still would have been much better than it was. The rest of the action without the hands and people was poor because it wasn't really that visually entertaining and it wasn't anything new and it didn't fit in perfectly with the music like some of it did.

[1 x 5 (-moby-) [1.2]]

Very poorly done.

I never normally like these kind of things anyway, but this one was just especially bad as you didn't really do anything special with it, it was just plain and boring. You just had a white background which made it look really poor, using a black one would have been better. With the shapes you did nothing interesting, you just had them move, skew, morph and change colour, you should have tried some sort of visually interesting thing with the shapes like made them move in a certain way so it looks like their doing or creating something instead of just having them moving around plainly. The sound was of a poor quality and the movement taking place on screen didn't fit in with song, you should have made sure the music was of a good quality and made the actions fit in with the song as then it would have been more appealing.

[Attack of Scissors]

Well that was pointless.

It was just a few things spinning and some text, nothing happened at all and there really should have been as the lack of anything going on just made the movie completely pointless. This seemed to be setting up some sort of movie which by the looks of things you never released or you did and it got blammed, but then maybe this wasn't actually a trailer and it was just a spoof trailer, it was difficult to tell. All this seemed to be was you showing off your 3D-style graphics, if you were going to do it you should have ahd something going on in it as well instead of just making a completely pointless movie.

[Final Xtasy 2]

Eh? Is that it? That was pointless.

You shouldn't have submitted this as it isn't the finished version and I feel that demos/trailers/previews/unfinished work don't deserve to be submitted to Newgrounds as they are not the finished version, you should wait until you finish something before deciding to submit it.

Demo/Trailer/Preview/Unfinished Work rant over.

Even for a piece of unfinished work there was very little here as nothing really happened at all, Cecil climbed a mountain and then fell to his death and that was it, I know it was unfinished work but come on it still needed more in it as this was just a pointless submission. At first the sound was alright, but then right at the end you changed the sound to something that sounded really horrible, you shouldn't have used that piece of sound as it really did sound horrible.

[gunz kill people]

Just drawings and text.

It was just some drawings of some guns and soem text saying that people could use the guns if they wanted and that they could e-mail you asking for the .fla file. Submitting this flash movie was pointless as it was basically nothing, you should have gone about it differently, perhaps posting in the forums about it or something, as a this flash was just completely pointless.

[Magical Realism]

That was actually really really good, I loved it.

At first I was expecting this to be yet another crappy movie, but it actually turned out to be really good, the storyline was excellent and it was very nicely done to, sure it could have been done better, but the storyline and the humour to this were great and thats what matters. I did really like how you had to click each time to go to the next section and in each part you played a short animated part of the story, it worked really well, and it contributed to why I loved this movie so much. The movie was just completely random but it worked really well and it ended up being really funny too, just due to the randomness of it all. To improve this all you had to do was improve the sound and animation, the sound needed improvement as there wasn't much sound in the movie and when there was it was of a poor quality. The animation needed improving because it didn't look too good that everything was motion tweened. This movie has gone straight into my top 10, it really was that amazing, you've gone above PALADIN Episode 3 and you've knocked out galactic stampede, so seriously congratulations on that, I can't believe this has such a low score, it's just amazing and it's done brilliantly too, this has to be the most underrated submission I've ever seen. I reckon you should remake this, improve the animation sound and graphics and this movie will do really well, definite portal top 50 material, go on and remake it I for on would love to see it. Anyway, well done, excellent job, keep up the excellent work.

["Sk00L no basebaL" -Golan]

Eh? WTF? That was just too random.

At first it seemed a little slow pace as you just showed the kid for too long and then you did the same with the teacher. Then eventually the random stuff started happening, a paper plane hit hr and for soem reason she bled and then out fo nowhere 2 baseballs and a baseball bat hit her, there should have been a reason for it to happen as it was just far too random, some movies work as being random due to the style that they're done in, but this was just done in a normal flash movie style and it just never works. You should have added some story into this along with some interesting events taking place as it would have made there be something to watch within the movie. You also shouldn't have shown the faces for as long as you did, as there was absolutely nothing taking place on screen at the time and it just made it seem incredibly slow-paced and boring. You also needed sound within this movie, it was absolutely vital, the movie just seemed really odd without it and it made it seem worse than it actually was.

[Theatrical Trailer Trash]

Um, no.

It was horrible, a spoof trailer that was just a collection of pasted images with some piss, sex and shit jokes which just weren't at all funny, piss and shit jokes aren't funny, they never were and they never will be, and sex jokes this stupid are also never funny. If you were going to do this you should have actually drawn everything in it yourself instead of using pasted images for all the animal and the woman. This movie was jsut completely stupid, a combination of humour that's never funny with animals blowing up and getting killed and stuff, which also wasn't funny, it was just a really horrible combination.

[Target Poochie]

It was too slow paced and nothing really happened.

The whole movie was just really slow paced, you showed the guy just in his bed for ages, then the dog started barking and he was still there for quite a while, it wasn't very interesting at this point but you made it look like it was building up to something big when all that happened was that he shot the dog, which wasn't really that interesting and it wasn't much of an event, perhaps you could have added more to it and he could have gone on a dog killing spree or something, just anything to give the movie some sort of event taking place. You also had the gun shooting scene too slow paced as you showed the guy getting ready to pull the trigger for far too long and again it created the sense that some bug event was going to happen but dissaponted when nothing major took place. The animation after that was very poor as the guy flying through the air backwards was just motion-tweened and it just didn't look good at all. The sound was also of a poor quality, the song at the end was fine, it was just the sound within the movie itself.

[Power of Love]

Well that was pointless.

A bunch of different coloured scribble moving at a fast rate, followed by some text saying to vote 5 and a pointing hand moving with some music playing. There was no point to this submission whatsoever, you should have submitted a proper entry.
