FattyWhale's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Half Life collab]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Ah, good stuff here. It was pretty random for the most part. My favorite had to be the opening scene, where gordon walks by the guy with a gunshot in his head and just says "Hi". Funny stuff.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics weren't great, but it's really not a big deal. Perhaps you could have had some type of menu so you could choose which section to go to if you want to watch a certain part again.

[Adolf Hitler:CAI493+D 129]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
A magikarp episode. One we've probably all been waiting for the most. An excellent episode to this series if you ask me. The music was clever, and the river scene was a neat idea for this.

^^Needs Improving^^
As always, the audio could use some compression. Other than that, I think this episode was brilliant.

Never.

[E-Clockmas Card]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
The art is pretty nice. The snow effect it well done and the coloring/shaping of the christmas tree looks very well done.

^^Needs Improving^^
Honestly the only reason I watched this was because it was for Clockmas. However, I don't even think most people would notice that just watching it. They would probably look right over Clockmas and see Christmas instead. I was expecting there to be a little something more to distinguish this.

[Still Alive - Portal]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
I just beat portal a few days ago. It's cool that someone made a good music video for the song, as it is a really funny song to listen to. This video had a lot of humor to it. My favorite part was when the guy "showed his love" for his companion cube. That made me laugh.

^^Needs Improving^^
I think it was a bit too much of the face and not enough other animating.

[Sonic: The Crybaby]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Haha, definitely a very unexpected use of Bedn in here. That was quite funny when I saw him first pop out. Definitely made this a lot better than I expected it to be. The animations throughout were pretty smooth, and the sound effects were well placed.

^^Needs Improving^^
The only thing to improve would be a very small thing graphically. I noticed that at a few points in this, everything in the frame would shift slightly, which just looks a little clumsy.

Thanks for the helpful review

[Christmas In Jimtopia]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
It's pretty fun to watch you progress as an artist, as I watch most of your stuff not long after you release it. You've definitely improved your animations in this one and the backgrounds and small details you put in were all taken in to account. The storyline was pretty good, and I love techno, so good job.

^^Needs Improving^^
Filesize is definitely a little skewed. No doubt due to the music files.

Jimtopia responds:

Yeah, that and the high amount of filters contribute too. I enjoy having my songs be high quality though. It just makes the flash experience a little better.

[SAATANA]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
It's really hard to imagine a day when something like this wouldn't get a daily award. Actually it's probably just a day when a few episodes of some crappy series come out and are overrated. Beside the point though... I think the reason I like your movies and this one in particular so much is how bizarre, yet interesting they are and how carefully the graphics are done. I mean, how many people are going to think of an angry red sun coming out of a cloud with purple tentacles, let alone draw it with surprising detail and then animate it extremely smoothly. I really think this is underrated.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really I don't think you could improve something like this. The only thing I would like to see is more work from you.

[Snow Effect Tutorial]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
You obviously know what you are talking about when it comes to Flash. You explained everything pretty well and you seemed knowledgeable about making this effect. I learned a few things from this.

^^Needs Improving^^
It's good and bad though...I've never seen a tutorial made like this, and honestly I won't mind if I don't see them made like this for a while. This takes way too long to learn something relatively simple.
