IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pico's Time Tank]

very good, but...

+V good Art
+V good Animation
+length
+Sounds excellant
+story- OK but mosty just Pico killing things, which is not exactly new. Is there meant to be any logic as to where he is and how he is miraculously armed aptly for where he arrives?

+humour- some good funny moments, helped by good sounds.

-no credits- where did the sounds come from? Who made the original characters? music? etc.

Altogether, very good but could be improved.

[AA is 1337 ok???]

Ok

A bit of effort went into it and its got some AYB, and a bit of humour. Yeah its OK.
It should have some proper credits to the people it parodies.
It doesn't take much to pop in another button and a little list of this and that.
Best Wishes to the AA from the Dragons & Spirits

[AA-.com]

OK

OK art
OK, if limited animation

I cant hear what Soviet says.

OK simple story

[Pico: The Escape]

OK

Very mixed art. One moment the pix are OK, next they are very bad. Pico suddenly pokes his head on screen as a completely bad pic. the sound indeed went out of sync and I did what you said, but that only worked for a while.

Voices weren't too bad. What was that about the background in a cell? Were you talking about the lights going out? 12 - 4pm? Didn't make sense.
Good credits. OK story, OK music.

xthesnarfx responds:

I will now answer your questions. Ah hem. I know what you mean about the mix art, a lot of people noticed that. Also about the pico poking his head on screen when he looked awful, that was a joke because he said he was really lazy, so I drew him lazzyfully. About the out of sncy sound, if you ment that the words didn't match the mouths it's because its on a mouth loop. It goes out of snyc near the end but the only thing that get effect is the little things that I timed up to make it look better. The cell bit was just a joke because for the majority of the pirson scene there was no background. I hope your questions have been answerd, if not you probably can't read my spelling.

[*1*Deppre]

What is that voice?

You should include the voice source in your credits. Are you aware it is an upper class English voice? Its like some friend of the Queen would use.

Its not a bad little story. the art could be improved, with more detail, but its OK and the animation is OK.

im working on #2

[D-Day: Juno Beach]

rough- borderline protect

I don't think it told us much and the flash animation was very crude but at least it wasn't just a slide show of photo's , which I WOULD have bl@mmed.
There's a lot you could do to improve it, whether it gets through this time or not-
You could put in a map to show where Juno was. You could give some stats of troops involved. You could tell us more about the Canadian contribution to WW2 and maybe about when they joined in, who made the decision etc.
Maybe get someone you know who can do a good naration-
"In 194? Canadian prime Minister @@@@@ @@@@, declared war on the Axis forces and joined @@@@ in their plans to Invade Axis controlled Europe. It was agreed they would take part in the landing at @@@@ codenamed Juno..."

To make it really ace material, you could show pix of a WW2 graveyard afterward; a canadian WW2 war memorial in Canada, tell us something of the Canadian perspective looking back now.
You could put a Canadian flag in there somewhere, maybe in the animation.
Did the Canadians use any of their own vehicles or tanks? If so, pics of them might be cool.
Also, put in full credits for pictures at the end and maybe some links to other sites for more info, such as the appropriate Wiki pages.
If you want to score high for interactivity and have the chance to get a few people really interested, then put in plenty of facts, then make a little quiz at the end. See my Birth of an Island documentary, where I have done that.

Take your time. Make this a good one. Canadians should take pride in their part in the downfall of Hitler, us europeans should be grateful for their part in our deliverance.
2/5 with potential 3+ score with improvements.
Best Wishes,
Ice

Thank you for this advice, I'll put these in mind when I finish this, and I will put these in mind for future flashes as well ^^.

[Blergh]

Not his lucky day, then!

... not anyone's lucky day!

Its sick. Its very sick. You're sick.

I laughed, so I must be sick!

aap responds:

I'm not sick. :(

[Ackbar : That's My Fulp]

OK

Its Ok. It makes its little joke, so I protect it but its not much really. the close up of Tom's mouth shows up how lame the mouth movement is. The credits have a bit clipped off at the beginning of the words.

["Oxygen Ad"]

borderline protect

It is quite interesting stuff, I do like lego and it was mildly funny. The sound was very poor at first but got much better.

However, it wasn't really flash animation, in fact it was barely what you could call animation at all, mor eof a slideshow. As such its more youtube. It could do with submtitles and a few pics of oxygen atoms, molecules and its place in the P table.

Angry-Potato-Prod responds:

I know it's not animated - - it was a project for school and I didn't have time.

Also, I didn't know ANYTHING about making videos back when I made this - - so it's VERY basic.

[The Exodus Machine]

Not too bad

+OK animation
+soso music
+OK art

-I didn't understand it
-It wasn't a song
-I couldn't read the faint grey writing on black at the end
