IceDragon64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Global Cooling]

Good

I liked the animation style, and the art, but most of all, the vocal sound effects. I didn't get the wierd noises he makes at the end of his speech.

"the earth. .. ughagh ugh. ergh...? Also
I didn't get why you mad ethe change from hot drinks to coffee, .

Mediocrejoker responds:

thank you! :) great feed back

[[cd][soup]soups Meet Sbc]

Its quite good

I liked the journey where they went in funny formation. The dialogue is OK but drifted into so-so stuff. I hope you guys develop the other guys characters a bit. We have gathered that Taco is gay, so what else have you got?

Kolumbo responds:

That Ninja is a badass?

Also thanks for the feedback

[[B&] Time Trials 1]

OK not too bad

---Obviously its not a very original idea- even the symbol on the face is not new- the Blocked Band looked just like that and they even had a Blocked Bomb in thier tiny lineup.

+However, its obviously a more exciting and interesting first sub than a screen with no animation, so lets see...

+It all looked OK- standard Ock stuff, I thought the Angry guy was kinda funny - it expresses the predictable reaction of a lot of people to yet another Ock-style Crew quite well. The crew room looked good, but you did nothing with it- lame. Do something with it!

I hope you make something ORIGINAL and have some ideas to create your own identity. I also hope that in addition to the TT stuff in which people submit crap that woudl never get through on its own, you actually do some good stuff as well. If you want ideas, PM me. I write ideas for a lot of people.

Welcome to the Portal from the Dragons & Spirits :)

BannedBattalion responds:

Yeah, i know. I've been mostly inspire by the BdB, but we will try not be as spammy as them. BannedCD is a lazy animator. We will try to do something. Also, i added us to the flash crews list. Seeing you didn't. Thank for your welcome Mr.IceDragon!

[Home Coming]

Good

Good story, art, voices, music etc.

Mildly funny.

I like the Soup eyes, they give quite a bit of expression.

I didn't get what expression Taco was supposed to have on the doorstep- mouth full?

You created a good atmostphere in the Guest room.

The ending is a familiar endpoint- I am intrigued to imagine where you would go from this if you did continue. I think its time to develop the characters a bit beyond "Taco is gay and fancies Canned", though- we got that idea- it s OK its just time for more- perhaps time to develop another character or two.

Sorry to reduce your review score, I always review honestly, but at least I raised your /5 score!

Dosensuppen responds:

I agree about the character thing.

[Adventure Island if wereR]

Not bad

I don't know what this is a parody of, sort of like Mario. Slightly funny. Not bad art, basic animation.

I liked the bits of skeleton falling down.

The english is poor and I blame the author- not somebody else- you are responsible for what you submit. Get someone english to check it if you want it corrected before submission. Especially the title- it is MOST important that the title is right. This title does not make sense.

Don't make excuses for the art, its not that bad, but you can do better- I don't have a graphic tablet either- thousands of NG authors don't. All practicing with the mouse is good for your mouse skills, so keep working with it.

bluewolfen responds:

you know the google traslator that tool Firetrucks XD
really i know a little bit english but i need practice more

[Soup of the Day: #6]

Nice Music

There, I found something nice to say about it.

Tacos one was not bad, the rest of you used the subject as an excuse to be lazy yourselves. Disappointing. I could have been funny or interesting.

I guess its bad luck for you guys that I happened to be on as I don't like this quickie collab thingys- each person tends to use the format to squeeze crammy stuff through judgment and this, I'm afraid, is no exception.

You would do to give yourselves a bit more time and go for quality.

I've seen much worse I suppose and it does all work etc.

Little-Rena responds:

The theme was to be lazy, that was the entire point.

[The hunter vs The hunted]

So-so

Stick men fighting with the same old style is VERY overdone here. The 'hard' music to go with it is likewise cliche. The sounds are SO familiar too. The black text on dark blue is unreadable.
It does work, but there is just no motivation to watch it. Seriously, I can't remember what happened at the end and I just saw it. Cos I didn't care

You have ability, please use it for something different. If you must do stuff like this try and give the characters personality- zzom in to faces. Have original dialogue-

wolfky responds:

I know what you mean... but im just practicing on movment until i get the hang of it.
Dont want to let this out but what the heck XD im working on a full body animation called "Dark Dream" :) not in a while though im still practicing. Ty :D!!

[The fall of the mafia]

so so

I can't say I like MC very much anyway, though at its best some MC material has talent, including Krinkels own stuff.

This one has little new to offer and is not very well executed (excuse the pun!)

What is LMHB?

Like many of the poorer MC, people just stand there with guns in thier hands not using them.

The text is sometimes difficult to read, and poorly spelt. The white line/gap on the right is clumsy, exposing beyond the edge of the movie at points. Why not have the credits music running quietly through the film?

I did like the joke "doing another killing spree" ! and the touch of saluting the tape of his mission.

madnesia19 responds:

LMHB are the quality buttons

[Fire Flower Folly]

Good

I don't usualy watch much Sprite stuff and this kind of thing is generally overdone.

However, its all done to good quality, with good sound, good music, etc.

Most of all, though I noticed a decent quantity of ideas, not just three, which many people expect to get through judgment with.

Also proper credits get that one more star

Sunrie responds:

Hey, ,thanks for the review. Glad you enjoyed it, especially since you don't normally watch anything with sprites.

[The Bad Dragon]

Ha!

Its OK. sound good, art OK, liked the lip sync. and the crestfallen dragon. It shows what can be done with simple techniques if we try.

None of us dragons eat people, though maybe some people deserve to be eaten!

Krutches responds:

I always love your reviews Ice.
