IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[[KC] - The Best Burrito]

Its OK

Nothing great, but its not bad for a beginning crew movie.

The sound is good. Its a bit of fun, its bright and cheerful, its not rude or mean and it has a sort of point to it!

If only all crew movies could tick those boxes.

I hope you will create character, personality and originality for your crew, unlike so many CC clones who just do the same old stuff. I will add you to the Crew list on Wikigrounds. :)

I hope you have plenty of plans to create stuff actually worth watching.

Welcome to NG from the Dragons & Spirits.

KrossCrew responds:

Thanks!It means a lot to me!

[Titanic: The Untold Story]

Random!

Its good, its fun, its got lots of cameos and stuff!

The very beginning seems to have a fault, with a couple of seconds of start, then restart with the ship- got to fix that.

I tried the game, but was crap, only got one veg. Had difficulty hearing what the veg said to the tomato, but I got the idea.

There is just SO much going on. I will send this to my gf, who likes pirates!

Its great and deserves to do well.

Merol responds:

You can turn the subtitles on by pressing "S".
THANKS YOU VERY MUCH!

[Ring System]

Its good

I don't entirely get it, but it is interesting and well executed.

I like the art, animation and music and the story is intriguing. It reminds me of the old children's book "The Little Prince"by Antoine St Exupery- search it if you don't know it, you would probably like it a lot.

LordBojangles responds:

I never read The Little Prince but I know what the premise was and can see what you mean about the similarity; thanks for watching.

[Metal Slug shorty]

Hmmm

The Sound, music, animation etc. is fine and it is what it says it is, so I give the minimum four stars pass, but..

but its not really at all interesting, original or entertaining. Its just a little clip of something, with no story, explanation, character or emotion.

OsatoUchiha responds:

Well, like I told you, I had nothing to do, I was bored.... if you want something with more story check out Metal Slug SPJ, that one took me quite some time.

[Poet Ink. Cartoon]

Its OK

Its a bit slow-paced and the sound is very echo-y,

Otherwise , the sound, music, art, animation etc are OK and the credits are fine

dave198 responds:

Thanks IceDragon64.
Unfortunately the reason the voices are so echo-y (and tinny), is the free sound editor I'm using causes the echo for some reason when I raise the pitch on the voices.
I've tried the noise reduction filters in the program, but none of them get rid of the echo-y (and tinny) sound. If you know of another (better) sound editor (free if at all possible), please point me to it, cause I haven't been able to find one yet. And thank you sincerely for the constructive criticism. I agree that it is a maybe too slowly paced, I was worried about that specifically, but was afraid of it coming off too fast paced if I did it faster.

[wheezy balloon times]

simple, but kinda fun

I found myself watching it a fair few times.
Sounds, art and animation just fine. The eyes look weird when the split, but it somehow looks right. As an animator, I can't quite work out how you did this loop to make the smokey stuff fit a perfect loop!

I wouldn't change a thing.

TheBoogley responds:

I drew the smoke second, and worked it up frame by frame, it took a couple of goes to get it looping correctly. :)

[The Dreams Collab]

How very Newgrounds

Its not bad. Its pretty random and it has a certain ammount of skill in it. It makes a reasonable video for the random music.

However, watching people die in blood etc. get boring after a bit; it would be better to thinnk of other things that could happen to people than kill them in blood over and over, IMO. I hope your dreams are not all this bloodthirsty!

Shame not to have a bit of background- you could do so much to change the atmosphere and develop the images if you did.

Smiley-Bob responds:

There were like 15 characters in this and only like 3-4 died "in blood" as you say it. And yea when I made this I kinda hoped my friend's talents would help mine look better.

[SS - The Flower of Life]

Hmm

Quite interesting and very well presented, but I don't actually believe or accept most of this. If I chose to analyse it in detail, I am sure I could pick it appart, but I will just settle for the obvious one- many crop circles have been positively shown to be man-made and most people these days believe they all are. Also showing that many cultures use a similar pattern doesn not prove that they are linked in any way.

RiverJordan responds:

Does knowing that all of the cultures that had the same image, called it the flower of life everywhere, and said that it was the creation pattern of everything, make it more proof of them being linked?

[Thieves Afoot]

YOUR having sleepless nights?

What about US?!

Wierd and horible, but well done. Good art, animation, music etc. Strange creatures.

I have to go to bed now. But what if theives come in the night? !!

I wouldn't change anything, its all good.

RatiganZombie responds:

hahaha Thank you.... I think. Yes, Thank you. I appreciate the review.

[Corporate Zombies]

Good

Its entertaining and has some good sets and stuff. The voices are rather hard to hear and I don't know if I really followed everything that was going on, but yeah, its cool.
It has some good details, like the arm crawling along with the trail of blood.

Shame you spelt the submission wrong.

CESpool responds:

Haha thanks for pointing that out, the reason it is a little hard to follow is because we had to leave out on filming some scenes to deadline issues for class. The audio is bad because we had to sacrifice it to get under 10 MBs.
