VicariousE's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[United Scene 4]

Was that the tune to 'The Tonight Show' Toby was singing?

3rabbitsproductions responds:

LOL no he just really had to go get some gasoline and matches. Thanks for the comments and for watching as always man. Iron Lung and Friends will not forget you :)

[United Scene 1]

I don't know why, the 'KB' on the building threw me off.. episodic content lag I suppose. It would've been nice to hear a little sound difference when SG spoke to SR on the phone. But your use of camera angles and physical humor made this a treat.

It's also kind of an atypical scene in the canon, unexpected, yet not unwelcome :)

3rabbitsproductions responds:

Thanks dude.

[Romeo + Juliet (2014)]

Very nice indeed! You can tell the characters were looped a bit, but very tastefully so. You added the right amount of effort into the details, to make this short very attractive, fluid and funny!

Hope you continue to make things like this... already faved you, and I'm too lazy to go back and reverse it. Was this for a class in animation, or something else? Sociology maybe lol, it sure does sum up a lot about how both sexes are hiding from each other, and in various contexts.

(BTW, let me know if my review was better than your teacher's comments)

hotbabecat responds:

I appreciate the review. Recently changed majors, so this is one of my first animation assignments. Still a newb at this, but I have bigger, brighter (and hopefully much longer) ideas on the horizon so you won't regret the fave!

[United Scene 3]

After a lot of hardship, this makes a nice pause for the students of Hero School. I liked Toby's dialog, reminded me of the speech Sean Connery did at the end of Red October.

Didn't we see SR take a shot to the chest in the last scene? Does beer help her auto-repair, like Wolverine? Agent Useless' intro music was a tad loud, but a good production of a much deeper pond than the one UK was gonna introduce to Toby.

3rabbitsproductions responds:

Beer is the source of Steele Reserves strength and the scene that you are referring to was a flashback so to speak. I always enjoy recording Toby the best. I actually have several other scenes already completed to so keep checking daily for new ones cause UNITED is almost done!

[Sphexy Lady]

I knocked off half a star for the slight overuse of looping, but it's clear you've got a skill and/or heart on par with some of the best animators here. How long did this take to produce? This better make the top 5 tomorrow |:

Turbo-Assassin responds:

Thanks a lot Vic my man!

This probably took me a period of two months to make, on and off. I was working on a game a the same time.

Thanks again for the nice review! :D

[Welcome to ShaeGuy]

The mouth movements, audio and synch are all spot on and clear, but you're not saying anything except, "YouTube, subscribe." and some curt introductions, and because of that, I have to dock you a star on the rating, and not recommend this submission goes past Judgement. It's a fine test you can show on your NG blog, but it's not adding anything to the entertainment value of Newgrounds.

I do respect your talents as an animator, and wish you well on perfecting characters and stories. But fishing for YT subs here is just... in bad taste. The point of your submission going 'under judgement' is to keep the very best our members have to produce.

ShaeGuy responds:

I respect your criticism, and yes this shouldn't have been on NewGrounds. I was just wanted to post something on here since it was my first time making an account. And this was the only flash video I had other than tests. But I can assure you this will be the only YouTube related video on here.

[A Rivalry]

So you did the song and the animation? Sweet. Perfect job, congrats man it looks properly good!

Cameron-Ohara responds:

W00t! 5 outta 5! Thank you so much!

[Door to Door]

Nice, it's like a crossover with Pulp Fiction! Really good job nailing the theme this year!

Brewster responds:

oh yeah i didnt even realize the Pulp Fiction connection but youre right!!

[Toons To Wear Pants To]

That's a shit ton of frames there man, six years in the making? I docked you half a star for the talking game sketch (could've been shorter or broken up), kinda dragged on a while, and in the midst of all that fast paced action... Also experienced a touch of lag, maybe convert it to mp4? Regardless, the framerate and action speak for themselves! Also a good selection of NG music and sound effects (properly credited :)

This animation really stands out, the hours, days and months spent on this really show. Congratulations on finally finishing it!!

AcidX responds:

Ha... I'm glad you noticed. It's something like 7435 frames. Some on ones; mostly on two's and threes. The main thing I was trying out here was 30fps. This was a huge learning curve and I've come a very long way since this. It is laggy as hell... It breaks so many of Flash's parameters. Shame that changing to video means losing the super awesome easter egg that took all of 2 minutes to code. Well thanks for your review and support. Stay tuned for my next piece, which will take much much less time.

[Clint Love the Kids!]

Awww, last one?! Always look forward to your animations, and this was yet another beautifully atypical story and ending. Well, whatever comes next, I look forward to it!

JazLyte responds:

Yeah, I mean I had fun but I have few reasons why that might just be more paranoia than anything. I'm weird. Your kind words are much appreciated sir B)
