IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[stretchy-man episode 2]

Hated the "walking", please animate some basic loop of walking. Liked the voices, liked the random inanimate objects talking. So-so puns, liked the "brain-storm" a lot.
Whatever happened to him being a stretchy man?
OK, have checked out your work. Yes, its quite good but no, you are not in any way Notable enough to get a Page on Wikigrounds- yet ;)

Megacharlie responds:

Thanks! :D Also I know about the Wikigrounds thing. XD

I'm working on a new episode while I write this, so yeah!
This new episode I'm making is a huge improvement over even episode 3!

It should be out idk when but it will be good.

Thanks for the review!

[Friend of mine[teaser]]

Its is good enough quality for a teaser, but I don't like teasers- People wind us up with teasers and no finished film. As it is I don't really understand the story, so I hope it will make sense when it is finished. Of course the sound, talking and animation are fine, but HURRY UP AND FINISH IT- then get on and DO OUR FILM as you promised so long ago!

manuelberja responds:

That's a quick judgement for you, This film is already finished, about a year ago. published to my website not too long ago, i will upload it here as long as the national competition of my country ends.

sent you a reply regarding our project. but just to be clear, i did not promise anything. you will be credited as the original author and I will be the producer. this is unpaid project. just saying.

[The Army Executioner-P.1]

This has some effort and potential, but needs work.

the Sound is OK and the music is good.
The animation is limited and uninspiring but does the job.
The plot etc is simple but quite thoughtful. Is there a connection between the intro story and the rest of it? The artwork with those building looks good though slightly fuzzy, then its just matchstick men, which is a disappointment.

What really bugged me is that the text is so hard to read. Most came up dark with the dark man in front of it. I tried 3 times to read it, finally reading most of it, including the spelling mistake.

MattmanProductionsTM responds:

Right, I am definatley doing a remake. Please review and see how you like it then. It should be submitted by the 20th of may or earlier. Thanks for the review.

[Sweet Brown Fire Cartoon]

Good sound, animation, art etc.

Its all good enough, except I can't hear the last things the "good " guy says. I tried it twice, but its silent.

The guys talk sounds familiar. I try to make sure I vote on artistic merit, not just what will get the most points.

StringAnime responds:

The Good guy mouths the words WTF. I don't like to swear so reading his lips will have to sufice.

[So Who You Gonna Call 2]

Yeah! I like this!
Like many other people, I thought the original number was some kind of joke at first, which is a shame. I wouldn't call it cos I'm in UK and its expensive and I don't have much to say.

I watched it through and it was OK, so-so etc. until the subtitles, then HAHAHAHAHA !

It was all very neatly done, with good animation and sound, then obviously some effort went into the subtitles.
Check the messages- we just sent one!

Dosensuppen responds:

The subtitles were the most crucial piece. Putting it up, we knew that it would be the comedy act.

[Duairt Eittle Episode 19]

I thought the thing with the eyes at the beginning looked good.

Otherwise, it was the usual Duairt stuff that I struggle to watch through. It certainly has some length to it and a bit of story, but the squeeks and the lack of proper animation gets to me every time.

I've seen worse and you guys have improved a bit over the series.

VioletVulpine responds:

Well, I'm the only one wo did anything. Banglaboy created it, and that's about it. It's like the Soup Squad, except their flashes are actually worth watching.

Thanks for having a readable review.

[Sonic Oddshow Preview]

Previews...

...they have to be very good to get my support.

What does this really show us? The material in it is just some Sonic scraps with no entertainment value and little interest. Previews normally show some glimpses of what is to come. We really shouldn't have to read the notes to understand a submission, nor have to find something hidden if you want the preview to promote your movie.
The quality of the material is, in itself OK- sound, animation etc, it just has no value as it is and does not inspire me to watch the movie when it comes out.
If you want people to check out your old stuff, at least give us links.

Best of luck with the real submission anyway.

Shadic15 responds:

Thanks... guess you missed the point of this video. Of course there's no entertainment or value,because it's not actually a preview... it's more like : okay, here's the setting, try to imagine something strange happen to the characters, then find out in the actual movie which will come out. Showing you already now, would be giving away the jokes, wouldn't they? The actual preview is, as I mentioned, hidden somewhere.

Thanks for being honest on the quality though.

[Clock from Peru]

Ha!

It made me smile.

Needs replay button & credits.

Don't like the language at the beginning.

Couldn't recognise the owner clock, who was that? Could have been in the credits

RobertClock responds:

The owner was the always fabulous FloundermanClock.

[Soup of the Day: #9]

Good

+ All OK works OK sounds OK

+Animation mostly simple but does the job
+Art OK

+Made me smile
Liked Taco's best. What has Nija done?

As I've said before, the Taco gay sex jokes are getting a bit boring now.

Keep it going- Happy New Year

Little-Rena responds:

Well alright, thanks.

But that's a shame.

[Soup of the Day: #8]

Good

+ Nice looking intro thingy- would be nice to see a credit for that pic unless you really did make it for yourselves.
- falling snow is a bit weird- it falls in all directions

+ All works fine

+all three are OK- for once nobody was lazy and scribbly, unlike so many collabs

+they all worked well, with simple humour to make me smile, good sound, OK art and suitable animation.

*Tomato- tho the animation was limited, it was everything it needed to be. Who is that Bomb? Why is there a carrot with them?

*Canned- what is the thing that flashes on the screen- it spoils the beginning.
I so like the sound of Canned falling over.

* Potato - I noted a couple of moments of good angles and I liked the image of the snowball in Canned's eyes.

If only all crew collabs were as good as this NG would be a better place. Collab organisers should refuse to put crap in their collabs.

Little-Rena responds:

Snow generally falls in all directions, it doesn't fall stright down in reality either, lol.

There was no bomb, it was Ninja with a cross through to show he is banned and the only carrot is the one with shades, that's CarrotSoup, if your talking about the thing on the ground next to him, that's whisky.

Canneds had a problem with v-cam, that's what was up with the flash at the start.
