fjgamer's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Levitating Grounds]

Looks like a character from Toonami?

I like it, but it has some style problems, where the style just doesn't stay consistent. Also, the music doesn't fit, and I don't see a credit to whoever made the music.

GRINACE responds:

Toonami, idk about that? The inconsistent style due to the project taking 3 weeks to make, rushed mind you. The flash was based off of the music, idk how it wouldn't fit and the music is made by me, sampled from Mteden with their permission and its in the credits before the special thanks.

[It's Pirate Day!]

Ahaha, yes, argh.

It's a nice skit, mostly because I agree it's annoying... Pirate Day, that is. I suppose the skit is too short, but well done, meh matey!

JoSilver responds:

Well there was nothing I could really do to make it long... other than beat Yotam with a stick... =\

Glad you liked it!

[Ninja Test/Breakdown]

Nice animation skills.

Not bad, animation wise, but the characters are overly simple. I felt like I was watching South Park or something similar. You could do with some more detailed heads at least. The big noses make the characters look clown-ish, and the heads are all perfectly round, too.

Is that music yours? You really should credit the artist, even if it's yourself. Give audio credit.

Side note, Zazzle and Cafepress have very crappy t-shirts. The prints easily scrape off, and they're always squares. You can't add special designs on the sleeves or anything.

Snakejohnson responds:

Just a side note about the Zazzle/Cafepress merchandise. The shirts are not poor quality. I have 5 of them and they have lasted over a year. They fade a little, but all clothing does that. And I agree with you on the design specs. I wish they would let you do sleev or wrap around designs as well. Maybe we could petition them to do so instead of just complaining.
Last but not least all of the other items like Posters,mugs, water bottles, calenders, etc are really great quality. I'm not just saying that, I actually bought some products a year ago to test it out and even I was surprised at the good quality.

[S13 - I Want It! Syndrome]

Best I've seen in a while...

I gotta say that I would prefer the English dub, but I still want the subs. ;) It's nice to have a way to read rather than listen when watching something.

This is an awesome animation, very well done. I find you used the VCam pretty well. Haha. Yeah, it's noticeable, but non-Flashers wouldn't know... or care. I couldn't find any flaws in this toon.

Nightwayfarer responds:

Thx, vCam2.0 is always with me ;)

[Old School Cartoon Collab]

Where's my part!?

My part was higher quality than most of the ones you actually used, so my question is "Why the fuck didn't you use my part?"

The parts you used didn't even have appropriate voices. The animation was pretty shitty whenever it came to Astro. There wasn't really much in terms of background music, so each part seemed rather empty, sound wise.

"this is a great looking collab"
No, actually, it looks horrible.

wam-bo responds:

yer part blew, and it had too much codes and i posted in the thread like "hey i can't get it to work" and you didn't respond, i know yer jealous of the trophy and i don't blame you, but yer part wasn't funny anyway so don't blame me

[Black Wizard]

Copying Ragnarok Battle!

I don't like that it's basically a rip-off of Ragnarok Battle Offline, which is a very popular beat-'em-up from Japan. I rather like the game, but this animation is not very original. I gave it a 2/5 for the good animations included, even if they look about the same as the ones in various RBO animations.

Ventor33 responds:

Ha, I did use some techniques from RBO, and RBO IS a Korean game, so I figured they would use some traditional Korean fighting tactics.

[Home Made DS]

Nice animation you got there.

My whining:
It's not an original idea. A lot of people, before myself, reviewed this and said it was a "nice idea" or "very inventive" Also, the "Some of the best SFX in stop motion" comment really cracked me up, because I didn't hear and sound effects. All I heard was music, and I'm not so sure you credited the music properly. Is there a credits thing at the end? I closed out when it went black.

My praising:
The animation is very smooth, and it fits in the video perfectly. I love how you keep moving the paper DS around. That simply made it seem more realistic. Now, if only *my* DS was that thin.... Great work!

zikayn responds:

I put the music together myself in a program called Mixcraft.

[Useful]

Pretty good animation. Cute, too.

I like this. It's to-the-point and looks decent. The art is stylish, and it reminds me of The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, but it doesn't completely copy said cartoon's style.

I have faved this. Keep up the good work!

MrCrapinson responds:

Thanks for the fave, brah. Glad you dig it :0

[8-BIT Waterslide]

Loading is crap, animation is ok.

I can't say I like the super tiny resolution. It's like the old animated gif images from 1999. More on that, this isn't Flash animation; it's a video. Therefore, it doesn't belong on Newgrounds; it belongs on YouTube.

2mb, too large a filesize for such a short toon.

teaandcheese responds:

All the characters, props and sets where made in Flash, then animated in real life. Whilst it is physically a video file the content of the film is wholly flash based, therefore it does belong on newgrounds.

[Bloom where youre Planted]

Boring.

It's not your fifth; it's your sixth, judging from how many other submissions you have on NG. Beyond that, this is like a very lazy advertisement. I don't get the joke, if there is one. The only good bit is the rail trick animation. You seemed to be doing good there, but it was maybe one second long.

hellosmartguy responds:

Its not MY fault that YOU dont get the joke. Dick.
