IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[BAZ shorts Ep 2]

OK

I preferred this to Baz 1. It had just a little more to it.

I liked the skeleton look.

and the replay worked today!

Keep up the series. I suggest you move on to small groups of sketches. Take a look at the Hammerthrow series by Muskelchock. He clearly gets less stick now he dishes out his episodes in batches of small sketches.
Polite Point-
Just because one of us hasn't got any Flashes to our name does not disqualify us from reviewing and voting on Flashes. If that was what Tom wanted he would make it so. In fact, I suggest that our opinion is valuable in a different way, since we are not wrapped up in how it was made, but we think mostly about what it actually looks like etc.

flashTEK responds:

thank you and thanks again for your advice

[BAZ shorts Ep 1]

OK

More effort went into all the fancy intro and stuff than the cartoon itself. It all looked great, but it was a dissappointment to just have one short sketch.

the replay button didn't work for me, I tried it twice round.

The sketch itself was OK.

The Authors Notes made me hope for more.

flashTEK responds:

the script was a bit dodgy it will be sorted out in the next sketch.

[Work Exp. guide; Be Safe]

Another MEK Epic!

Well, you did it! Not only is it a pass this time, but a reasonable score.
+stacks of Interactivity
+lots of imagination and complexity
+like the new MEK intro image

-some parts go on a bit
-plenty of sounds, but the quality still sounds a bit muffled

I look forward to part 2

MEKofTheMEKkingdom responds:

I'm not sure about part 2, I'll get around to it, I'm stuck on Flash; I don't know what to do. However, here is an idea; I should send the main movie and the game to the company who made it! They would like! I am soo smart, well; it was my Nan's idea.
Hope that your submission under work is coming along great, if you think you need any guidance in sound or anything, just ask! Thanks once more for the review! I need more of them!

[Asteroids Mishaps]

Looks good but...

...dissapointed me.

I can't see what makes your parody that much different to all the rest. the images were OK, but the Mishaps were not entertaining at all, they were just the normal things you do to lose lives, whereas some parodies have really funny ideas.
This certainly is NOT the one to end all Video Games parodies. The Dragon/Spirit collab. "Tetris Nightmare" will be out fairly soon.

I found the sounds irritating.

von-Brunk responds:

I knew you'd overlook the obvious joke here. Of course the "mishaps" were just minor errors that occur naturally in the game. That's the satire. It's one thing to make a cartoon with Mario being naked or Link trying to sleep with Zelda, but after so many repetive rip-offs of other movies and low-brow sex jokes, Mario/MK/Doom/Zelda mishaps tend to get a little old, don't you think?

[Edd and Tom 1: Edd@OWNED]

One of the shortest Flashes...

I've ever passed!

Its OK, its funny, theres nothing wrong with it, I've given it the most points I could reasonably give something with so little to it.

Will somebody please tell me what 'OWNED' means in this context- you Americans etc. suddenly use it all the time!

TomSka responds:

It basically means that you have just gained the right to posses someone seeing as you are clearly more awesome than them.

[Ultimate Violence]

OK Stuff

I don't know Madness, but the style is familiar anyway. At first, I thought oh god not another one, but it had enough length to make it into a sort of story.
Light sabres are kind of made for Flash aren't they?!
Its annoyingly slow in parts, making the 'bad guys' (they could, of course be good guys!) look incredibly dumb. Try it in a slightly higher frame rate and add a couple of frames for any text which needs a moment more to read at that speed.
Maybe have different music for when he meets the 'sith' guy.
I liked the image of the bullet.

Muskelchock responds:

Acctualy, Ultimate violence is my first full time flashmovie. I was working with it for months. Thanks for good review.

[Ultimate Random]

Sorry, but...

...I don't see what they all see in it. I could barely give it 3/10.

this is one of the best of these funny little things, of course, with some sound, but its still not much of anything.

Perhaps if you had put in sounds as well as music, it would seem better. Of images which matched the sounds, like Fantasia. Actually, has anyone done a Fantasia thing on NG? If not, please do one.

Muskelchock responds:

Was playing with flash and my tablet. H7 is coming in february

[Crash and pain 2]

OK stuff

what can I say?

Its all there- sound, music, backgrounds etc. but its just stickmen fighting again with no real story.

What does 'ownage' mean?

Looking forward to H7
Best wishes,
IceDragon64

Muskelchock responds:

Yeah i know. I am looking forward to H7 to

[Killing Maniac]

More stick men!

Stick men fighting! How do you get it through?

The answer is simple- music, sound and background. With these three things it has to be a considered as an acceptable basic Flash, which has the overall, borderline score it deserves.
give any sequal some STORY or I will blam it!

The two gangs all saw all H. from 1-6 today.
Ideas from the gangs-
Fencing- sword breaks
Trampoline either bounces to the Moon OR
falls through, taking material down with him.
Horseriding- horse jumps fence, throws rider, lands on rider
Rifle shooting- recoil knocks him over
Basketball- either ball bounces off basket or slam dunk pulls basket etc down.
Most of the two gangs like Hammerthrow and most LOL.
Best wishes,
Ice Dragon64

Muskelchock responds:

Yeah, i trained at fbf and camed to this and after this i gave birth to the hammerthrow series^^ It will not come a sequel. I am making the hammerthrow its much much more fun to do than violence. Thanks for the tips for ht 7.

[Crash and Pain]

What can I say?

Stick men fighting? Tell me Mus. how many blams do you put in for every one you get through?

Nice gadgets, OK background. Head going back on was funny.

Thought it was time I started looking at your other stuff. I don't usually look at much more than 150 because I am on pay- as- you- go slow.

Where did you get the weird name from?

Best wishes,
Ice D.

Muskelchock responds:

Yeah, you found my first fbf movie. i was experimenting with fbf. The name whould be...um, i dont remember:P Then in the end it says Crash, pain. And i rewhatched it and saw you review. The fbf isnt fantastic:P thanks for review thougt^^
