MUDrSauron's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Northern Incident]

Epic

I hate that word, trust me. But this can hardly be described without utilising it. You made a great effort on all fronts: Scriptwriting, drawing style, animation, voiceacting. The only minor fault I could see is the inexplainability of the events (cut wire, noone there after knocking) but ultimately you did it to build up the atmosphere so that I can get over it. Otherwise no complaints.

I won't go into detail with my praise. I'll just mention two things I liked particularly:
1. Using different lineart colours like blue for instance
2. The gradation

Let me end this way - you sir are a god. Nuff said.

[Off to Bed]

Clappity clap

I loved it. Was short but had a point and the visuals were very well done. The animation could perhaps use a bit more fps but that said I couldn't do better, obviously. Way to go!

[Goku vs Vegeta Beta]

Thumbsup!

This was a very nice rendition of one of the few battles that still had some style in DBZ. I absolutely adored the characters (did you make them yourself?) but disliked something the pixels in the background, looked kinda weird to me but for example the scene where the rock broke apart after the crash was beautiful. The music was fitting as well. Overall a very solid work, visually stunning with a very fluid animation.

FoxFactor responds:

Thanks man, i don't make this sprites.

[RandomStuff]

Rather OK

Nothing spectacular but I like the fact that you tried something more abstract than what you usually get. You seem to have enough talent to do better than this though. So throw up a concept (even abstract animations can have some) and spend some time on the animation. Looking forward to it.

F-Ninja responds:

Thanks. I'm brainstorming some stuff right now, hopefully something interesting will come up.

[dbz:vegeta vs goku]

Srsly

Wow. I have absolutely no idea what's going on. You should spend some time with storyboarding or at least make an effort to establish continuity between the scenes. If I hadn't seen DBZ I'd think it's some experimental abstract art.

Keep trying though. Noone was born as a flash god. Practice makes perfect.

[Samurai Vs Ninja]

Clap clap

You don't see people making so much fbf effort every day. The topic is a bit cheesy but you managed to stay fresh, give it a proper length and make it actually thrilling. I bow before you, master.

[IDNU: Justin Bieber]

I like the idea

Your visual style and your representation of the jokes (inflating breasts, comparison with what I presume is yourself) is very neat. The lip sync was a bit off but that's somewhat hard to do. My main point of critique would be the noise when you speak. It's rather important to have a clean recording when your main asset for the flash is your commentary.

On another note: I tried listening to his music and just for the heck of it and it's the usual love crap with tons of sweetness dripping of it. Except the guy doesn't even write it himself. For which I have very little respect as you might guess. For me art is something where you at least make an effort to create something. That puts poor Justin to the lowest category in my eyes.

Anyway, to sum it up... You have some fairly good skills and ideas. The mistakes you make are easily avoidable. I'm fond of your style and looking forward to seeing more of your stuff. Cheers.

[Vecernicek]

A great parody

Hell... this is good. I'm from Slovakia but I occasionally watch CT and I must say that this particular animation has been bothering me since i was a kid. I mean... its kinda disturbing with the creepy voice and the whole atmosphere. So I was really amused when I saw this little flash. A job well done, I must say!
On the other hand I can't see many people enjoying this as its a parody of a mere locally know phenomenon. Anyways, I really wish for it to stay here...
