FattyWhale's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Half a collab]

K

^^Good Points^^
I kind of agree, that this got a rather low score for what was offered. The graphics were top notch as far as FBF animations go. I can tell you've had a lot of experience animating and had some fun making this one. There was lots of stuff going on, and lots of funny animations, especially that dancing guy that showed up every other scene. The finished collab looks like it will be a success if you keep up this work.

^^Needs Improving^^
What probably killed this the most was that there was no music in it. You definitely need some cool music along with a bunch of sound effects.

FlashKn1ght responds:

Well, the thing is my part of the collaboration was the 2nd half. My friend had the music.

BTW: The whole collab will come up soon, my friend just has to get his part ready, so the one on Newgrounds will be our "unrated" version, so to speak.

Thanks for the crit too, when I first started I got a ton of "You suck!"s

[subway boredom]

K

^^Good Points^^
This was a pretty cool movie. I liked the graphical style. You had neat character designs with some anime styles added in. The music was great, went well with the crazy storyline, which was rather unexpected.

^^Needs Improving^^
Well, perhaps some more sound effects could help this out a bit, as it was mainly just music.

[The Legend of Link Part 2]

K

^^Good Points^^
A good continuation of the first episode. Glad it got off to a quick start and picked up right where it left off. The sprite manipulation and animation was the best part in this. The storyline was good too, seems like a good series forming.

^^Needs Improving^^
Again, the stationary camera isn't doing you any good. It would be a lot more interesting if you moved it around a bit.

Emptygoddess responds:

The stationary camera is not only doing me good, it is the true joy of the ages.

[Violatrix Intro]

K

^^Good Points^^
Yeah, definitely a good intro as far as they go. The length was good, and it made me interested to see exactly what this is about. The graphics were very cool, especially the people you had, as they were animated very neatly. Interesting movie, I'm sure the full version will be a success.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics weren't completely aligning I guess you could say. Your characters were awesome, but some stuff like the backgrounds didn't look nearly as good.

[Strike Flyers - Episode1]

K

^^Good Points^^
This wasn't too bad of a movie. It was rather funny and I didn't expect that little guy to be so violent! The music was great, love those tunes. The ending was rather funny, as it was unexpected.

^^Needs Improving^^
Could use some graphical improvement. I didn't like the red gradient background in this.

[Driven by Suffering]

K

^^Good Points^^
As far as trailers go, this looked pretty good. I thought the graphics were very well done, especially since drawn completely by mouse. The blood looked fairly realistic, and didn't look cheap. The storyline you portray in this seems to be very interesting to watch, hopefully you release the full version.

^^Needs Improving^^
Animations could use a bit of work. Your animations seem to be mostly just tweens in this or simple MC's.

[Librarians are hiding...]

K

^^Good Points^^
Not too bad for the length of this. I thought you did a fairly good job on the graphics and animations. They were simple, but still pretty cool. It was a little humorous just because of how strange this is.

^^Needs Improving^^
I was expecting a little more to go on after this ended. It didn't really say what the hell they were hiding, and this just doesn't feel like this was ended satisfactorily.

Ninjkabat responds:

I will admit that I was originally planning to add more to it, like to have some sort of chase scene followed by the librarian that we see shooting the dart. But I ditched all that when, well, it took longer to make than expected, and also when I realized that a short little one had a better chance of possibly making it on the Colbert Report. (a slim chance is a better possibility than no chance).

But I'm glad you liked the animation. I'm currently working on a very long and ambitious music video, so when that comes out hopefully I'll have a submission of adaquate length to keep people's attention.

[Global Warming Teaser]

K

^^Good Points^^
I liked the opening scene. It had some good art in it and made a good impression on me. The music was nice in this, and I liked the art throughout this.

^^Needs Improving^^
Decent trailer here. Some scenes in this were a little drawn out and boring, and sometimes it looked like the framerate could have increased a little bit.

[The Legend Of Link Part 1]

K

^^Good Points^^
Started out with that SOAD song, which is necessary in every Link type movie so good job. The start to this movie after the song was pretty interesting. I liked what he was saying, it was kind of humorous. Also, looks like the next episode will bring some interesting storyline.

^^Needs Improving^^
I hope you don't use that long intro to each episode. Overall, could use some more animation, and perhaps some zooming in on Link at times.

Emptygoddess responds:

If i want to i'll play the song over and over again for all eternity until the stars wind down to die.

[Socialist European Union]

K

^^Good Points^^
The music was a great choice, as classical music really seems to build suspense, which this movie definitely did with the drawings of many mobs raising their hands. The graphics were pretty cool, especially how you used the colors.

^^Needs Improving^^
Does this loop or something? It was a little boring how it was just scenes of people in front of monuments or whatever. Really could have used something else...perhaps some v-cam effects.

Kenzu responds:

It seems to me that you didn't watch the whole movie. Well if you havent, you have missed the best part.

I personally like the part with ringing bells and stars falling from the skies. And I like the firework as well.

A pity you havent seen it all.
