IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dailytoon #252]

Messy, unfinished.

Why do the SS want to submit something which actually SAYS it isn't finished?
The creature at the end just stands still while the voice carries on talking incomprehensible crap.

This does not deserve to get through judgement-
-backgrounds
-sound quality
-graphics
but thanks to the SS it might.
As I have said before, I admire your effort, but I don't see the point.
Having said all that, it wasn't the same without a Dailytoon to ignore!
Best wishes anyway!

[Captain Suctions Ep. 1]

Fantastic Art, but not much of a Flash

Its OK but not yet great.

Its got great visual characters- you could make so much of this. It could be a NewGrounds hit.

These guys could be so funny with a bit of character developed in them.

I can hardly put my finger on when to go with this, but please do work on it. Brainstom woth your frineds, get as much feedback as you can.
As it is it doesn't have real story and timing of the movement is dull, but go for it.

Chizem responds:

I promise you that i will make more and they will be better than this, because i will have more time, thanks.

[Homage To Catalonia]

Quite good, got potential

+good animation
+OK graphics
+Good story
+funny

-needs explanation- intro or info button afterwards eg. why wee these people in this position- not supposed to kill each other- who were they supposed to kill. Also , what does the titile mean? If this is quoted from a book or somehting you need to say so.
-sound levels need tweeking, esp the commi coming up the hill.

-Replay button and full credits, with music would make it into a full movie.

A scene zooming in for a close-up on one of the groups would be very good. It seems ambitious, but its the next level of animation and story telling and would guarentee a higher score.

this is good material, please work on it- then do more!

[Calamity's Adventure P.1]

Quite good, then you annoyed me.

speakonia stuff and characters that bounce without flexing, just to save real animation don't impress me all that much, but it had potential. The glimmer of a good story etc.
Then I got sutck in this loop with a lilac coloured corner going up the hill.

If you had just run up the hill a while, then faded to CREDITS I might have protected it.
The song should be properly credited, both in the Flash and with the proper BUY button before it.

Pawesome responds:

I seem to care so much that my movie is getting a better rating than both "movies" you've ever made. HAHAHAHHAHAHABHAHBHAHAHADHABS HJABHS

[eg]

enjoyable

i was thinking I would just about protect this crappy stick thing with no background cos it was quite well animated, then It carried on into some detail (5/10). Then you did that thing throwing through the layers and that was it- 6/10!

does that say mama bird at the end? Whatever it is it flashes by too quick.
Personally, i would prefer it with sounds- just a few sounds at key moments.
smash, smash, smash through the layers would be veyr good and add more emphasis.
A selection of different tweets etc for ther bird would be funny.
The final deep, powerful noise for the big bird would add to it all.
I know you can't please everyone and some people would prefer it as it is- just a thought.
Random, pale backgrounds might look good. something simple that doesn't intrude into the action too much.
It was interesting and showed ability

[thomas "rocket boots"]

Its good

+ very good graphics
+ good sound, generally
+ amusing

- didn't think much of the broken shop window sound
- I think the graphics of the man hitting the trash bin were a bit of a cop-out (like most of mine!)

Tell me- were any of your images/scenes inspired by sounds that you heard? A lot of mine were in Ibby's Hair Restorer and I think the movies have a bit in common (though your graphics are WAY better). Your work inspires me to do better.
Thank you
Ice

[Mad st fight II]

some good things

+Some good effects, like the radience when he 'became a god?'

+some variety of death methods

-no real story

-not much sense

-rather slow. Mostly the enemy just stands there and gets killed

simple backgrounds. No detail on figures. Eg sky should fade from dark to light downwards in linear- its so easy and makes it look so much better. Even one brief zoom in on a simple face would add so much character.
