WritersBlock's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Pretenders]

Haha, better than your average

homemade film. It's not hollywood, but the camerawork and script was pretty well executed. Maybe some lighting issues here and there, I'm going to guess that the sound was the quality it was because of the overall film's quality being reduced a bit. I thought the ending was, for the most part, decent, but the dancing around felt a bit out of place. Great use of humour, I think you guys did a decent job. Well done!

Fro responds:

Thanks for the review. We did a couple of shots of the ending, but it just seemed to be the only one that went with the movie. I really don't know what else would have fit there though.

Perhaps we should invest in some mics to make the sound better. That's the only thing that is really missing from our movies now.

[A Bid For Freedom]

Great work

The illustrations were wonderful, the voicework was brilliant, and the story, impeccable. Congratulations on making a success out of your storybook collab. Only thing to note is that the text is a little hard to read. This would have been a much bigger problem if the voices weren't as clear as they were.

AdamCook responds:

I've seen your works in the Storybook Collab; you're very poetic and literate, so this kind of reception is truly wonderful. Thank you for checking this out and I'm thrilled you enjoyed it!

The text issue has been fixed; enjoy!

I very much look forward to seeing you deliver something for the Collab yourself; I hope to see you on here soon doing similiar business!

Cheers, and best of luck to you in your own ventures!

[I'm Still Here]

Really nice stuff

Your artwork and transitions between sketches were really good. It hasn't got a clear-cut plot, nor does it have the best artwork in the world, but it had artistic vision, and I think it's one of those things that could have a hundred different meanings, you just need to replay it and replay it and replay it.
Nice work. Be proud.

[How to be leet.]

Lol quoted me. :3
A classic Lochie humourous short. Ahh, the style of old film and lochie ^___^ meld together unexpectedly well. I laughed, I 5'd, I give you a pat on the back, my fine sir.

I'm now "leet". Care to go for a joyride in my ROFLcopter?
<3

Lochie responds:

I'd love to go for a joyride in your ROFLcopter. <3

THanks for the 5'n'10. <3

[Apples.]

I also wear a paper bag on my head.

I think it's great how they continue at it at the end, even though there's plenty more apples to go round.
I was wondering, how would the guy with the paper bag eat an apple anyway, without removing his paper bag? I saw no mouth on that character! And the one that was all mouth and no body, how did he manage NOT to eat it?
Simple storylline, elegant and well executed. Music was great. An all around class act. *thumbs up*

SWiTCH responds:

That's a good question!
They didn't wan't to eat the apple anyway, they just wanted to fight over it. :)

[Gone to Bel Air, brb.]

I think that

it was good.
Fun. Nice. Random.
Perfect for people like me with a short attention span.
Maybe if you added something shiny in there... or a red ball...
Oh, and you spelled "End" wrong, that was the part at the end of the movie, you spelled it "edn". Might want to fix that.
I'll be waiting for your return from Bel Air, so that you can make more awesome flash movies.
=D

Lochie responds:

A red ball would have fitten perfectly, I don't know why I didn't put that in! D:

I'll be back from Bel Air soon.
Thanks! :D

[Purple Sawdust]

Awesome

Love dan paladin's art style, and I think you totally nailed the flathead look in the submission. Congrats on snagging a prize for pico day, well deserved. Thanks for using my audio, and sharing a cut of the prize with me, it was a very pleasant surprise.

Well done!

[Our Love]

=/ yeah

That song sucks bad. I agree that the use of the guitar hero controller was funny, and the animation wasn't too bad, but I think that you could have put more detail into it. For example, instead of having the lyrics on the screen, maybe have images that reflect the lyrics. You could have it so that it's night time, and they're sitting by a camp fire, and a faded image of harry potter or gandalf would appear in the sky. That's just me with ideas, but, yeah, something like that would really bring the graphics up a notch and make it more interesting. But as it is, it was quite well done, good lip synching.
Keep it up!

[A Weird Day at College]

lol

Great story. It kept me entertained for the whole time, good job. Despite the lack of lip synching and other numerous cuts in animation quality ;D it shows a fair amount of effort put into telling the story.
The best animation I've seen from you yet.

"The best animation I've seen from you yet."

I would say some of the best, but I'm not sure about THE best. :)

[Andersson's Birthday]

funny

It ends kind of abruptly, and it leaves me thinking "what will he do with a rocket launcher?" Nice birthday present, and a funny animation.
Graphics could be improved and the volume of the voice acting could be quieter, but overall, it was amusing, your animations are a lot different to the average flash, in terms of style.
Good work.

Andersson/Satan would do several things with a rocket launcher. :)
