IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[STEEL Faction]

I don't want to be horrible but...

... you are warned in the submission notes about people not liking trailers etc here. I am one of those people. Please submit finished work here. Use the Alpha for trailers, like I do.
Sorry,
Ice

JohnnyTremain responds:

Pawho. Its only a trailer if I decide to write trailer on the title.

[My "First Flash" Collab]

"player has been eliminated!"

I found it very funny and I've never even played one of those games!

It was a very good idea and it was well done. Had you submitted the collab of ugly sticks as it was I would have bl@mmed it to hell, but NO, this was GOOD, the work you did was masterful and I could sense how much fun you had making it.
I wouldn't change a thing.
Best Wishes,
Ice

Sticky responds:

I take this review as a big "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"

[Welcome to the Hilton!]

Very good, funny

spell casion/casino

GoldenSalamander responds:

i dont no how i missed that, cuz im pretty good @spelling!

[The Great Space Robbery]

what a waste!

I DID protect it- just and I don't mean to be hostile but it was barely watchable. All those great backgrounds with such lame character art and limited animation. A reasonable story, not expressed at all while you are in it.
You seriously need to collaborate with this if you can't see yourself sorting it.
It has a lot of potential for a major sort out and resub. If all else fails you, PM me and I will see if any of the DS crew feel like taking it on.
Best Wishes,
Ice

Wiz-Kid responds:

Thank you. I was disappointed with the movie, too - and it's my own movie! I just wanted to start off with something simple, before I move out to more complicated projects. I'm a beginner on Flash, so consider this as a practice.

Thanks again for the critic, IceDragon64, and for all the bad comments - at least, you were sincere.

After all, "TGSR" may be "barely watchable", but it was better than seeing two stick figures in a "DragonBall Z" parody, right?

[LL-Every Mile]

Good

Yeah its all there. I gave up trying to catch the sublim!

the Convoy song takes me way back!

Best Wishes and cyberhugs to Clock Lock on her birthday from the Dragons & Spirits!

Ice

WinchesterLock responds:

Thanks, and I'm sure she would appreciate it.

[LL- Way of the Roman]

Good

Art good
animation- fit for purpose

Sound - appropriate, within the style of LL

Idea- imaginative, different, funny, thoughtful.

Good stuff. Throw out that over-modest Authors notes. You are a Lock and that was proper lock style!

TrueDarkBlade responds:

Thanks, but looking at most of the other more famous Lock movies make me look at my skills and say, "It is crap!" Again, thanks for the words of encouragement. It was encouragement, right?

[SpaceRobotLasers]

only 7 reviews-I'd better write one!

This is a noteworthy submission. Not fantastic but a nice little 3d number.
Nice art
nice animation, not stunning but I've seen worse on TV.
In fact, It had quite a professional style about it.

I would rewrite the notes. You only have a simple story so don't tell us before we see it!

Its OK with just the music, but to go to the next level you would have to either have music which developed in time to the vision or sound effects as well.

With the robots eyes lighting up at the end you have the way open to another episode. Since this one has already been succesfull you should think about making the most of this success and, should you choose to make another episode, developing your skills.

This might mean a more complex plot although the simple plot was OK for this little story, or it might mean develping the sound medium along the lines I expressed above. With the success of this one already under your belt, you should think about collaberating if you have any doubts about any aspects of future productions- its worth it.
Nice work, keep it up!

sorbitol responds:

Thanks for the review IceDragon64!
Sorry it's taken me so long to reply!
I'm glad you liked this cartoon which was my first 3D effort. It was only really an experiment that I thought turned out pretty decent- not stunning, as you said- but decent.
I must take this opportunity to thankyou for writing a proper review that you've clearly put some thought into. I hate having to reply to 14 year old ASBO maggots who elaborate no further than,"*SNIFF* S'alright, s'pose...".
I wish there were more like you-
It has been a pleasure to respond! All the best- Adrian.

[BPA 101]

Unusual and good

Good art
OK text
Good info

I think the references should be explained. What is BPA? Perhaps it could do with some links.
I was interested in the two colour shades, what was the significance of that?
I think it could be more impressive if you put the sequence into a little scene- a kind of context- at the end, with a cause, sound and a background so that we can fully appreciate how what we have seen relates to 'real' animation. If you feel like brushing up the text PM me and I will proof read it for you.
Yes, do more.
Ice

stikkilla responds:

um, I did explain BPA..
