WritersBlock's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Droids Vs Aliens]

It's nothing spectacular

But it's decent. The camera quality was poor though. A clearer image would make this a lot better. Also, maybe work for a longer movie with a bit more of a plot, it just looked like a random skirmish with lego characters...

But it's stop motion, so you automatically get extra points for that. Nice try.

Graeme responds:

If I had to re-do part of it, I would have made the camera on a better setting. Perhaps on a low light filter, that way the image would have been much brighter.

[Inward Singing]

This was a great flash

Graphics were great, theway you constructed the scene around the conversation. 1 isseu I had was where you changed their appearance, they had no noses, and then a moment later, they did! It'd be better if you kept it all in one style. But other than that, it was awesome, great to watch, funny, too!

Good job.

Well they're called "chibi's"

They were in Dio, and due popular demand I brought them back!

[BlueHippo's a BBS mod! :0]

Pretty funny

Lol @ ban message. So you got yourself banned, got your ban lifted and got BlueHippo to voice act, just so you could make a joke about your head exploding and the possibility of a de-modding... nice. Although it is entertaining, it's short and quite crude (animation-wise) so if you keep this style up, you'll entertain me, but you probably won't get a 10 from me. But that's not a bad thing.
Nice setup.

Meh, 7 is still great. :D

[Inside the mind of SBC]

Nothing unusual thar!

Although I couldn't help but notice a severe lack of melting clocks. And you probably could have added a couple of sundials here and there.
But on the whole, I think you touched on some pretty interesting materials.
Can you do my mind next?
Do me! Do me! Do me!
Wait, that comes out wrong...
Oh, what the heck, do me anyway =P

It's a nice abstract animation.

BlueHippo responds:

i'd make a cartoon about writersblock, but i figure it would be easier and more ironic to say i tried and couldn't come up with anything ;D

[Pot Head Bob and a gennie]

Weird...

I didn't find the joke all that funny, it was very random, but not in a "lolwtf" way, just a "wtf" way. The graphics were quite basic, but I agree with NintendoMadness about the south park style heads, I liked that. I thought the concept of the genie coming out of the bong was funny, but I think the direction from there was just... not... that good. So, improvements on plot and graphics, give the plot some length, or else, make sure so have a very good punchline for your main joke.

Keep at it, it wasn't too bad.

thanku
ur review was probly one of the most use full
the only comments more help are one that are haters THANKS

[News Reporter III]

Heh, not bad.

My first impressions were that the graphics and animation were quite poor. And I still think that they could use a lot of improvement, the arms on the news reader were just rectangles, for instance, and the lip syncing was... non-existent. He moved his mouth. BUT- despite of that, the voice acting added a lot to the flash, in that it has an amateurish style, that works with your dodgy animation, so I'm thinking it was all purposely done to appear that way. I think that the script was pretty funny, I liked how you broke the fourth wall and talked about how it was just an animation and the characters come back to life next episode. It's simple, it's funny, it's not outstanding, but it's an enjoyable piece of work.
Good job. Made me chuckle.

kinggila responds:

I'm just lazy at animating, but still keep going with this sort of style just for fun and some people like my style. :)

[CandyHolics]

It's not bad

Good parts:
Script is pretty good, it's not hilarious, but it's funny.
Graphics are somewhat decent, although a little basic, still, good.
Voice acting was also pretty good.
The reference to newgrounds related characters was great, sort of like an inside joke... I can't see too many people going trick or treating as steve IRL, so that just makes the joke a bit over-the top. I liked that.
Bad parts:
The audio was a bit fuzzy at times, so it could have been a lot cleaner.
Jokes could have been funnier, they weren't very subtle, so there's some room for improvement there, but it's better than most.
Graphics are passable, but there is definite room for improvement, the animation isn't quite the slick, smooth animation you see in tankmen or other well animated cartoons, but it's not too far off.
Overall:
It's a very decent flash, it's not amazing, but it's definitely something to be proud of.
Good job.

Thanks, I'll keep those in mind.

[The Spirit of Halloween 2]

Moar plz!

Excellent stuff. I'll definitely check out the first one for sure. Your art is awesome, the plot was great, you had it all down perfectly.
Excellent. It deserves nothing less than a 5/5 and 10/10. I'm adding it to my fav's list.

squeakytoad responds:

Awesome, man. Thanks.
I hope you're not as expecting as much with the first. While some of my fans have told me they still feel it's funnier, the art is shoddy (in comparison) and the pacing/timing is poor. Of course, it was made a year ago.

And don't worry. I'm definitely making more.

[AL in Space]

Lol @ video game references

Mario vs. Browser. Nice humour, a little confusing as to where it was going, it was all over the place, I dunno where "Al in Space" comes into it, he was just a random character... next time could you make the plot carry on a bit better please?
7/10 for humour.

Pandoryk responds:

Confusing movie, crazy movie... yes it is!
AL is living a very strange day, but hey, Life is a videogame! ;)
Next time the story will be certainly more comprehensive, don't worry :P

[Since You Been Gone]

This is nice

It all flowed together well and it looked very well done. As you pointed out yourself, maybe add some colour to your next flash. And you must have a preloader, otherwise it might stop and start in the middle of the movie (like it did with me).
Otherwise, well done, I look forward to more flashes of this skill level in the future.

real-faker responds:

Thank you!
Sorry it started off in the middle... I had no idea that that would happen! I'll definitely try a preloader...
thank you for the review!
