MUDrSauron's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

Thanks man, i don't make this sprites.

[Stickcity Pilot FIGHT]

Oh c'mon

A stickman film shouldn' be so hard to make. Your presentation style is rather weak with a lot of text just flashing on the screen for an extremely short period of time. I also found the scene sequences to be generally very confusing. My main point is the continuity, you should be able to see the transitions from one scene to another. I wasn't able to do so in this case.

The other major complaint is the art style. Stick figures are basically the most basic form of a character. I respect that not everyone is an artist (hell I'm not one myself) but give it a bit more time, make the lines smoother, try making longer, more continuous pieces of animation so that the appeal goes up.

Sorry for the critique but it wasn't a particularly good piece of animation. O bet you can do better than this!

Actually The Lack Of Smoothing Was Purposely Done As It Gives A Unique Tone And Odd Look.
And Yeah, This IS My Second Animation With Flash Ever And It's Kinda Harder Than The Programs I'm Used To. I'm Really Used To Animating With This Particular Layering Style At Such FPS. It's Much Harder Than My WMM And Pivot Videos For YouTube. But Either Way A Little Of This Was A Little Criticism With No Pluses. I Asked For Constructive Criticism But Thanks Anyways :D

[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.
