FattyWhale's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Mysterious Box]

K

^^Good Points^^
Considering you put only an hour of work into this, it was very good. The graphics were cool looking. There was some shading, and very smooth and realistic animations. The sound effects were great too.

^^Needs Improving^^
This wasn't particularly funny or really that interesting to watch. You've got great potential, you just need to spend more time on making something with more depth do it.

[Battle for the sword!]

K

^^Good Points^^
This movie was fairly well made. At least you didn't keep the camera completely still, which would have been annoying. The animations were nice; there was a ton of action in this. The music was good and so were the sound effects throughout this.

^^Needs Improving^^
Your stick figures aren't very defined, which needs to be done if you make any more of these. They look more like blobs, and like you said, the camera moves around a bit too much.

The drawings were decent. Well, they were all right, I suppose. I guess the shading made this look half decent. The music was at least high quality too.

I'm really surprised this even got this score, considering it is just a loop that last for about two seconds. It really isn't that funny either. Some guy swinging and a bunch of other guys just happy they won the Olympics... what?

Not everything has to have a point to it, this didn't.
Many people like just random peices of stuff they can wonder at and try and figure out what's going on, so i made one for those people.

[Smoke Part 1]

^^Good Points^^
This was a good start to a series, it's a shame you didn't continue it. The storyline was pretty intriguing and it was cool how interactive you made this. I really liked how you gave info about Skel-corp with that computer terminal, and you added a lot of background info into the language, and made it seem like normal discussion. Great music too.

Try not putting too much of text in blocks. It just discourages people from reading it, and it is hard to read when you make the text smaller. Should have just made it more than one box. Wish you would have continued this series :(

This movie wasn't too bad. The song was rather funny. The pictures you used were at least high quality, and this was kind of humorous actually.

^^Needs Improving^^
I would have rather seen some traced pictures instead of just gif images, they really don't look professional. This was incredibly short and really wasn't too entertaining.

The music was great. It was really quite awe-inspiring, I wish I knew what it was.

I don't know why I though this would be a serious movie, and it would be nice if you actually did make a serious movie. I really didn't find it funny when the penis showed up.

[the best jutsu ever]

K

^^Good Points^^
The drawings were probably the best parts of this. You have good animating skills too, and most of the stuff was pretty well defined.

^^Needs Improving^^
This could use a bunch of improvement. The main problem is that this is too hard to follow. This is caused one by the lack of sound, which makes this seem to move a lot faster. Also, without color it is harder to see what is going on during the movie. You should improve these next time you make a movie.

Kitsaku responds:

Thank you for your kind and honest critique. Almost everyone has said the same thing though, so it comes as no surprise everyone thinks sound and color are a must XD. I JUST learned how to add sound, and I think Tweening is my next big step. I'll add color when I'm a bit more comfortable with animating... but thank you so much for your critique.

[RuneScape Halloween 2006]

K

^^Good Points^^
Ok, the music was decent. You used music from the game I think, and it went along with the Halloween theme in this.

^^Needs Improving^^
NG as a whole hates RuneScape. They despise it! I'm really surprised this even passed due to that fact. But anyway, this wasn't very interesting. You left private chat on, which was distracting, and the public chat was on too. You definitely should have turned it off. This wasn't particularly interesting either, and I refuse to believe you did all you could to compress this video. Unfortunately, not interesting enough for me to visit your website.

[Albuquerque: THE MOVIE]

K

^^Good Points^^
I agree, it is amazing no one has taken the time to make a movie for this song, but I think the reasons are obvious. I'm really glad that someone actually had the patience. This was definitely worth watching all eleven minutes, which is something I rarely do with Flash movies. The characters you created were amazing. The main guy was quite interesting, and he fit the song well. The drawings were very well done, and I really loved how you animated this. This followed the song exactly, and you added a ton of stuff into this to make it even better. Great job, this will definitely get a daily award (or at least it should!).

^^Needs Improving^^
Hmm...perhaps the scene select would serve more at the beginning of the movie.

RWappin responds:

The scene selection IS at the beginning of the movie. ;)
