Jebbal's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Super Damien]

nie

haha i cant get over the fact that soulja boy used to be into making flash cartoons before his music career exploded. this movie's really good too.

[Lord of the Clocks pt. 1b]

asdawooo

Awesome, one of my favorite series on Newgrounds. It's pretty neat how the clocks have the actual current times on them too!

[Awesome Video Games - Ep4]

xDDDDD

LMAO That was one of the funniest things I've ever seeeennn xD

[Star Wars, Ball Wars]

Pretty cool!

Initially, I didn't think that it was going to be good at all, but that prediction was proven wrong upon watching the second scene. (The big fight between the yellow and blue guy.)

The light sabers turned out nice looking. The motion blurs were very cool too, not to mention accurately matched with the way that somebody would acually swing a sword... or light saber. They're probably not called motion blurs. I don't know. I was refering to the white streaks that followed the fast motion of the sabers.

The one joke in the movie, although highly overused in flash work, was still kind of funny. Good for a 5. =)

The sounds were nicely synced, but lacked variety.

Overall, I liked it, and I hope it gets past judement. I think it's worthy of doing so.

I suggest that you keep making more movies like this, but work more on them so that there can be a plot, or maybe just have the main charcter fight more guys. I'd like to see that.

Nice job!

[Cold as Ice ep. 07]

Not bad.

The drawings of the characters were all right. Not the best, but not bad. A lot of the backgrounds were just horrid, though. Some of them consisted of only like 4 lines. Considering how you drew the people, I think you could have drawn some of the backgrounds better if you spent more time on them.

The animation wasn't very good. Many parts looked extremely unnatural, and other parts were just really weird looking. There were also a couple times when it seemed more like there were just a bunch of pictures of the guys alternating every second, or in other words, sometimes there really didn't seem to be any animating going on.

The sound was possibly the worst thing in the movie. It was like the same couple of 5 second songs starting and stopping over and over again, and that got VERY annoying after a while. Besides the music, there were just punch sounds and such. It wasn't bad, but it was nothing special either. Pretty basic.

I gave interactivity a 4 for the little menu at the beginning and the clickable stuff at the end. The menu, although you did a decent job on it, had a TON of grammar mistakes in the character bios. I suggest you take a look at them and try to fix them up a little. Some of it was actually a little hard to read. Another minor problem with the menu was how you had to click on the letters, rather than making a small area around the word clickable. 4 in interactivity also for the pause/play options during the movie. That was a nice feature to include.

Keep in mind that a 4 for interactivity isn't actually that bad, considering it's not a game.

Overall, the movie was okay. I can't truthfully say that I'm looking forward to the next one, but I'll take a look if I see it in the portal. Keep trying. You'll get better. =D

Rule responds:

Wow.
What a nice review.
I'm knida still a new one when it comes to flash. I'm crap at animating, and I suppose drawing backgrounds in photoshop was a bad idea?
Ok.
The Interactive I was aiming for because I was thinking of a way to get points in that. And I'll fix up things in the bio. Really, thank you for the review.

[jungle run]

Decently decent!

Yes, like I'm sure you'll hear from other reviewers, it would have been a lot better if it were longer. The animation wasn't bad, and the drawings were good.

It is a potentially good movie, and you should continue working on it. Spend a lot of time with it, and it could turn out to be a really nice animation. =)

the drawings were good
and the rest was Decently decent i agree

[Incomplete remix]

Good n' stuff.

It's good. The drawings were pretty good, and I liked the blur effects you used with things that were far away in the backgrounds. The effect looked cool on close things too when the view moved quickly. The smoke effects were also nicely done, or whatever you call them.

The background, although pretty well done for the most part, seemed a bit dull when there were only solid colors in view. It looked a lot better, for example, on the part where you see the black stickman standing on top of the building. Everything looked great since you made it clear where the sunlight was coming from, and it kind of gives you a feeling of being high up from the ground.

No sounds, but a good song choice.

No violence, humor, or interactivity except for the play button, but those factors aren't always neccessary for a good animation.

It was a nice movie overall; I'll be sure to watch the final version when it comes out. Good luck with that, by the way, and great job on what you've done so far. =)

sickmouse responds:

Thank you.. good to hear that... and appreciated your review... thank's again..

[Anomaly]

Finally, something good!

This is pretty good! It kept my attention throughout the whole duration of the movie, but I didn't really get much of an understanding of what was going on or what they were doing there. =(

Nice graphics. Good drawing and cool 3D effects.

Not much of a diverse style. Looks sort of similar to a lot of other movies.

The music fit the animation pretty well, but there weren't any other sound effects or voices other than the door exploding.

It didn't show any violence, but the blood looked good in that last scene.

No interactivity except for the play button on the menu screen, which was well designed by the way.

No humor. Struck me more of a serious animation.

I enjoyed watching this movie, but I would have liked to have known what it was about. If this is the first part of a series that will later explain everything, though, then it's okay. For now, I'm wanting to see more...

Good Work! =)

[Wat goes upmust come down]

Nice little movie.

I like short little movies like this. =) It had good animation and a cool style. Everyone loves those little guys with the straight line eyes!

The biggest problem with this movie is the fact that there is no sound. That would have really helped bring the movie to life, and it would given more feeling to it. Maybe some music would be nice too, if you could find anything that fits.

It wasn't really that funny, but it did put a smile on my face. =)
It would have been funnier actually if, again, there were sounds in it like a boing sound for when he jumps.

It was obviously lacking some color too, but that's okay. It think it goes well with the animation.

Overall it is a good movie and good effort. Nice job! I enjoyed watching it very much, and I look forward to seeing more movies by you in the future! =D
