IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Field of honor]

Good

All good quality.
neat and funny.
I liked the tiny flying insect.
spell reviwe/review at the end.

MarkArandjus responds:

Oh yes, thanks!
It's my dislexia, the e always fucks me up :S

And I'm glad details like that insect pay off :D
Thanks for reviewing!

[Wishmaster Misheard Lyric]

Very good!

A lot of these don't really sound too much like the text people give it. This is good. Obviously it helps if one chooses a song where we really can't hear the lyrics and what you can hear doesn't make much sense- Yeah I can see why they choose this song a lot!
I was really laughing at this. I don't care if You tube has a pile of these I haven't seen them and I am laughing at this!

Kaldron responds:

Sorry to sound arrogant and cocky but the ones on YouTube are crap compared to this. Here's the original if you wanna check it out: http://youtube.com/watch?v=gg5_mlQOsU Q

Thanks a lot for you comment though, I really appreciate it!

[Principled Depravity]

very interesting

Very good.
Good art- tho limited with white backgrounds and no colour etc.
Very good animation
Very good sound
*Excellant voices

Good, if not very original, story line.
You have created a certain amount of personality, which is very important and so oftenb missed in other major subs. It is vital to give the charaacters personality, in order for the viewer to CARE what happens.
A glimpse of home life inserted in this, even if it were just a phone call from wife showing normal home life, would make it all seem a lot more personal.
If you don't want to stretch to that, then at least give her a name in his dialogue.

I am not sure what the episode subtitle is supposed to mean assention is not a word. I assume you either meant ascention or assertion. Also tiny sp. in the credits: offical/official.
high quality work. Could become something exceptional.

LogFish responds:

Thanks a lot - man I should get you to check my work before I post it!! You down with that? If you are PM me and I'll write you down somewhere :) Thanks a lot for the useful review!

[It's Clam Dance Time!!!]

OK, a bit funny

Is a bit of fun I suppose. Nice little bits of animated sea creatures. Not much to it though. The divide between something like this, which is mildly entertaining, and something which is just music loop spam is quite subtle. Any how, congratulations on getting through, it has some skill in it.
Suggestions:
-Add a seahorse in orange to the background, or even going up in front of the clam.
-If thats supposed to be a pearl, loose the grey edge.
-Sort credits "Concept, coding and drawing by ...?"

Best Wishes,
Ice

IceDragonkin responds:

I like the sea horse. ill have to add that.

No gray edge ill see how that looks it is a pearl.

And the credits is a resolution problem. i have a huge resolution screen so my alias shows up there but i went to a friends to show them it and there monitor was more average size and the text was cut out like you mentioned. so im going to have to stretch the Dynamic Textbox so even small rez's can see it.

Thanx for the feed back.

[Jim Day 07]

Good

Its weird and crazy. It has some good effects and ideas. I liked the door/sound situation. It could probalby do with some links to previous Jim films withing the movie, otherwise its fine.

Jimtopia responds:

Thanks for the review man!

[Disaster Warning]

looks good but...

far too fast movement. Is this intended as funny, or a fantasy moment or a statement of believed facts?
Whatever it is the movie largley fails because this is not clear.
If it is intended to be factual, you need to quiote your source, preferably with some detail about how these conclusions were reached.
As an amateur astronomer, I know something about this submjext and I personaly don't beleive it at all.
My instinc was to bl@m it, but I thought the graphics looked good and despite its lack of style and, to my mind, good content it would be OK for it to stay. I hope, though, whether it gets through this time or not, you will work on it- it has potential

djstaz0ne responds:

If you know anything about the laws of gravity, you should know what happens when the outer planets align with earth. this is based not only on astronomical cycles, but also on geological evidence. It happened before, and it will happen again. I am not here to prove anything to you... Do your own research. You may be an amateur astronomer, but i am a novice.

I agree with you that it's too short and too fast, but when you get hit by the flood, i will have the last laugh.

[Misheard lyrics of song..]

Not the greatest misheard, but...

Funny!

Most of the misheards didn't sound like what you said, but the collection of pictures you chose made up for it with humour.
the final picture is just incredible. they look like two children caught fighting and looking guilty! the action shot of the spit flying out of the dogs mouth as the cat kicks out is stunning.
A lot of good work went into collecting pictures for your interpretation.
Ironically, the sound quality is not bad, its good, so we can hear too clearly what is really being said. maybe what it needs it POORER sound quality, which, by compression, would improve the file size?!?!?!

Flashmovieboy responds:

Thanks for criticsism! :D
Yes that last pic was funny, i found it and i tought maybe i can use it somehow!
Sound quality was actually better before, but i needed to get rid of filesize and i streamed it. Poorer sound quality? But then u can't hear da song! :D

[Pube Grover Chronicles]

Has potential to be OK

However, personally I don't think there was enough of it to stand alone as an episode.
they've just met, theres no explanation, no real humour and nothing has actually happened yet.
the graphics were nothign to write home about, but if something humourous actually happened, that wouldn't matter. So far, the idea that these two characters take on the two bodies behind them is all it really has. That looked OK, but I would say it wasn't ready to submit yet.
Sorry

Rabid-Tux responds:

That's a rather harsh overall for something that from what it sounds like, mediocre.
