IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[the Murder Paradox]

Very good

:)Good sound, animation, music, art etc.

:)Good story, well expressed.
:) The sounc sync seems OK, if it is out I didn't notice.

The scene around the 'murder' is difficult to see as it is all dark
The english is good but not perfect- Its pronounced catastroPHE and the words
"tend to cope with" implies that people succeed in coping with it, whereas I am sure you mean "have to cope with"

On a philosophical note, I don't see the evidence that such things as paranoia are a new thing. IMO some people have always had these feelings and the "These Days" is an illusion.

NuclearTeddies responds:

Thanks for the compliments :)

Glad the syncing problems don't show up too much, but we ourselves do notice it though. Luckily we know what I (Vadinci) did wrong, and Positron will upload a better version soon.

We also know our English isn't perfect (In the first text part I wrote "usefull" with two L's) but we are still young and have loads of time left to master the language.

[Choose ur starter already]

OK wha?

I didn't really understand that, but then I don't really know Pokemon.

:) It looked and sounded fine with good animation and lip sync.

:( If you had wanted a more universal appeal, you could have an introduction that would explain what the different choices were about and what a "starter" was.

[weebl and bob: pie]

crude and simple

Not much to it. animation plain and simple. Music basic and not particularly relevent or inspiring. Voices OK, but nothing special. Plot/humour dull and pointless.
Only the faint voice of Bob going "oh" was faintly funny.

The characters are just simple adaptions of Weebles. Barely makes it through my Judgment.
whereas Badger is addictive, this is a complete disappointment to me.

[airplane war]

slight smile

Good use of sounds, well timed. effective animation. Kinda silly but raised a smile with the Worms voices. Good credits, flashed by a little too fast. Pointless scene select in such small scenes. Generally OK.

[Fuk Yoo, Banarnee!]

So weird!

Haven't seen anything so weird for a while.

Kinda funny, weird ideas and images. Good art and animation. The eye pulling thing was definately different. Its rather sick. Good sound effects

Poor bloke!

[CC- I am LegoClock]

Its OK cc stuff

Nothing great, but its OK. Its what ordinary cc stuff is supposed to be and the little poem is not bad. I have always loved lego, so I think it is great to have a Lego clock.

I understand that its not everybodies cup of tea, but its not nasty, its not scribbly and its harmless enough. I hope you think up some good, funny stuff and put a bit of effort into your cc subs. The cc contains a lot of hasty crap, but it also has some of the best Flash on Newgrounds. Sorry I can't honestly give you a better review score, but I did just improve your score some.
Welcome the world of Crews!
Best Wishes to all the Clock Crew from the Dragons & Spirits

BanglaBoy96 responds:

:D thanks! I just wanted to make an Introduction to my new Clock! :P
thumbs up!

and...

Clockcrew.cc

[The Mine]

Itsa good, but...

... here the quality sucks, so much it spoils the experience. There must be another way to do this. It has interesting and weird effects, tho the bit where they are digging went on too long.
The voices are good, tho of course the sound is distorted quality here.

[Bad Apple Touhou Stars]

Keep working!

Its fun; its OK.

My sympathies for the lag. I usually find the same problem. Every time I ask someone about it, they tell me different answers- some, sometimes work, but the truth is that Flash is not well designed to avoid that, in my oppinion.
Sometimes changing from Event to Stream helps; sometimes inserting blank sound files into key places helps. Search the forums and tuts to find the answers; it is critical to music videos like this and would improve this SO much. Sadly, the lag does rather spoil it :(

Regarding the funding, you won't get any money if you don't set up a means to recieve it, but really, provided you credit everybody, it is reasonable for you to accept the tiny ammount you might get for it- you can always give it to charity.

The next step up in improving this video would be full lip sync, which is hard work.
Best of luck with your studies, you have made a good start

The-Cloaked-One responds:

Thankyou very much. I was disappointed with the drop in quality, I'll see if I can get it fixed and repost it later. With such a gaff, I'd probably score myself a 3 because timing is beyond critical.
On a different note, if I can get rid of the lag, it'll be pretty good. I could not lip sync the video since I put the audio on event (doing this was the only way I could get the audio and footage to sync at all for my class project). I just estimated and it plays very nicely on my compy. So, for now I'll toy with it and repost it in better quality. Thank you for your time.

[Moon Lajt (Music video)]

Its OK

The music is reasonable and the video kinda goes with it OK. Its a bit too short to really get into and the video is a bit too scribbly for my taste, but meh.

Carr77 responds:

Thanks for the comment.
