VicariousE's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Boredom Empire Part 5]

Oh shit, that's a gravity bong yo. Haven't messed around with one of those in a while.
But I have watched this every day since it's been under judgement, and voted highly each time.
Why? It's genuinely episodic, dramatic and hilarious. It sounds great, the timing is spot on, the music score is freakin' epic.
Like a good race car driver, you are steadily shaving seconds off your time, usually pretty consistently.
This has been a thoroughly enjoyable series, and I can't wait for the day it ends, because then I'll badger the fuck out of you, to take them all down. Repost as assembled episodes in MP4, then you can truly sit back and reap the rewards from your vision/script/movie/series/thing. These short 'one reelers' of Flash just doesn't do your work justice. Your content is movie grade (as well as in length), but it's chopped up like TV news sound bites :P If you really want to be slick, lump them all together into acts.
I can't tell how many acts, but I'm sure you could re-release all of them with a just a few submissions, with what you have at your disposal. Swivel dude, talk to Mike....

3rabbitsproductions responds:

I love your comments lol thank you so much man. It makes all the slaving till 3 in the morning worth it. I am releasing each part of the series (in actual 20 minute episodes) on YOUTUBE. They are all on there, dude if you want to check them out :). Gravity is a powerful tool...haha lol. JUST SEARCH "THE WONDER SQUAD" or 3rabbitsproductions. They should pop up if you can't find them let me know and I can send you the links. Though the series title is going to change from that to strictly IRON LUNG AND FRIENDS after the end of this season because the show really is just about the five friends and what they go through together - so I think it would be a better fit and WONDER SQUAD has been taken already a dozen times anyways :/ I'm working on GOODGUYS now dude. Not sure if you're a fan of Scorsese, but if you are I'm sure you'll like it. Have a good one man.

[SPACE CAT]

Guess you warned me, but if you submitted this, and I saw it, I'd be compelled to review it.
There was a slight amount of animation, but it was mostly over shadowed by visual effects...
So, it's kinda a space-siren? Or a Medusa?

[SV 001 MetalSlug Mission1]

That was awesome, really! Plenty of detail. The tanks movements, aiming and fire, made it seem exactly like a game. Every incoming shot was a near miss, heightening the action. Well done sir!

zrgyu responds:

But I Missed Most Important Thing. POWs. It is My Biggist Mistake.

[sfct part nine]

Aside from the overly loud bird noises (especially early on, when it totally stomps the dialogue), this is a fine animation (if a bit short in duration). I guess there could be more animated facial expressions and body language, but you've already taken care to illustrate that to begin with... I guess if it were any more expressive, it'd look over the top. I wish more animators here would take the time to render characters and scenery (and plot AND voice talent) so well!
I've really enjoyed following this series!! Uh, only problem.. what IS this series called? Could you spell out what 'SFCT' means in the 'author description' plz?

littlegoblet responds:

thanx buddy. yeah I want to get better with body language. I know my characters are a bit stiff, but that is defiantly something I want to improve upon as time goes by. Oh and good point I didn't think about that, the story is called Search for the Crystal tear and I will make sure to add that in description. Thanx for your support buddy.

[Journey!]

Bravo! Excellent writing and animation!! The beginning looked a bit dubious, since the parents weren't visible, but oh my, what an awesome piece of work!
Was kinda sad Tom wasn't down to represent Newgrounds... in some brightly lit alley of the interwebs.

ZenithQuinn responds:

I would have liked to include a lot more sites alas time constraints! Tank man does make an appearance though in the reddit scene.

[Pupperooni]

That was insane, very sorry about your dog :(

UltimatumVox responds:

Thank you for caring. At least she left some descendants.

[Street Fighter Z]

Wow, what a great production, all around! Your description of the video was so dead-on, I can't bring myself to say any more! (Yeah, so, I grew up in the 80's, and this animation makes perfect sense to me.)
Plus, as someone who used to be able to leg press over 500 lbs., I can also appreciate what strong thighs can do :) Very nicely done!

Kel-chan responds:

yeah i don't know why it turned out like that but halfway through i couldnt' get the dragonball music out of my head. It screamed 1987-88

maybe i'll make more retro anime things in the future

[Static Prank]

The action, scenes and body changes.. wow, a lot of work was put into this, and concluded very well! Aside from the choppy and sparse graphics, everything was smooth and the script, awesome!
If you don't get an 'A' for this, we'll take Captain's tank out to see the teach about it :) A very Newgrounds worthy piece indeed!

ElectroJoe responds:

Thanks for the complement! And no need to worry 'bout my professor, I received a good word on the video so I'll get a great grade for sure! :)

['Pizza a domicilio']

Figures I just finished a slice of pizza before watching this! It was a tad short, and you can see a white space below the delivery guy's feet while he was moving, but the rest was sweet!

Butzbo responds:

I was considering cleaning those rectangles with some photo-editing, but then I decided to keep them like that since they weren't too disturbing, also for the sake of "evidencing" the technique.
Thanks for the review!

[Nerf-ocolypse]

First class video production, well done!

HenryLong responds:

Thx I am eager to teach whoever wants to learn
