Dew's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[destroyed butnot defeated]

Not really interesting.

If you were looking at this submission, you would notice that it really dosen't manage to capture my attention very well. I mean sure, it's a claymation and you can't expect amasing quality, but in general this submission, I thought wasn't very good. The movements were slow, and dull and the story itself didin't attract me in anyway at all. Next time, try speeding things up, or doing somthing different entirely. Meh, that's just my personal opinon.

ATOMICCLOUD responds:

Here's the thing.
This is a masterpiece compared to other rip-offs that some people call claymations, and most people think a REAL animation like this one isn't good because it doesn't have blue blobs that are hardly creative, an over-used joke and some random reason for violence.
Claymation is way better than flash, it's original, creative and fun.
So that's my point. Oh, and the real king of clay is Ray Harryhausen, a great man who used to do animations for old monster films.
There, OK?

[Angel Food Cake]

OMG.

Wow, now this is what a first flash needs to be on Newgrounds. The pure example of awesomeness. My personal advice is to not ever call somthing your first flash, simply because a lot of people will vote zero for that reason, as you can see from the score. In my opinon, this deserves at least a 3.3. Nonetheless this managed to captivate my attention the whole time, and the bright colors really managed to keep it fun for me and a lot of people. Maybe next add some sort of ending scene, and a replay button, but other than that, great stuff. Truly somthing. I'm sure you already know this, but you have the potential to be a newgrounds #1.

DirlyD responds:

Thanks! My next one wont be my labled first flash lol cause now it wont be!

[BFTT:trailer]

What you'd expect.

I don't see anything here that really amases me. I mean, sure the submission itself isn't bad, but there is nothing special about it. The graphics are claymation, and all in all, they move quite fluently, but there really isn't much here that excites me. The music is nice, but that isn't what I am reviewing. I don't really know what to say here. Average submission.

ATOMICCLOUD responds:

Oh well,can't impress every one....
Thanks for the review :D

[Adolf Hitler:CAI493+D 097]

Where does Hypno...

This is always somthing I wonder with pokemon, where do they get those weird items? Nonetheless I personlly can't say that I like somthing that puts no effort into the flash, but I suppose if you guys are going to continue anyway, then there really isn't much of a point to argue about it. The graphics were pretty lame, and the whole thing really was, at least the file size isn't 5mb this time. Lame.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

I guess they pick them up somewhere.

[Kung Fu Loop]

Short. Pointless.

Before you submit somthing, you need to ask yourself "Does this submission serve a point? Does it show a story, how to do somthing, and is it long enough?" This submission dosen't fit that cateigory and because of that it isn't enjoyable. If anything the song is the best part of the submission. Maybe next time add some sort of background, and smoother animations. Maybe different types of characters or somthing. All in all a below average submission. I personally would not vote this in Newgrounds.

OMGZILLA responds:

Then why did you?

[Lonely Eric- Episode 1]

I didin't like it.

The first, and cardinal rule that a submission with voice work, or talking must have is submititles, if you don't have subtitles then there is no point in submitting something. I can say though, that the graphics weren't to bad. It showed the things it had to show and it worked well overall. I woulden't call it somthing special, by any means and there really isn't a story or anything, but all in all the submission wasn't horrible. Probebly more in the average range.

Grebn responds:

Hi Dew,

Fair enough.

As for subtitles, I find that if you're listening rather than reading then they're distracting. It would be better to be able to select them from a menu I reckon. I may have to start doing that.

[Newgrounds FanMail: Ep.4]

Flash?

Is this even done in flash? I mean if I wanted to go and watch a slideshow, and that, in essence is what it is, then I'd go back to school. I mean, lets say if there was some sort of menu or fast forward button or somthing made in flash then it woulden't be that bad, but this type of submission is specifically rooted to Youtube and what it does. I'm not saying it's bad, I just don't think it belongs here. Sub par submission.

PlayTheGame responds:

well you know, you are part right. But it does belong here, because it is a form of entertainment

[TEDIZ]

Loop?

Exactley what's the point of the loop? Is it that hard to just put a "The end, replay?" Page? Nonetheless the graphics were slightly less then average, you used the same models over and over and it just didin't look good because of that. Nonetheless, that isn't the only problem. For one, there is a weak storyline, if there is one at all, and it just dosen't make you want to watch and in the end you want to give it a bad score. Overall a poor submission in need of some more work then this.

nazer1290 responds:

Its not finished... theres gonna be more parts
btw that wa experiment -=1=- so it is gonna carry on

[Adolf Hitler:CAI493+D 096]

Lol.

Although after a while this gets a bit old, the sheer lolz I get out of this is endless. For one, because I am studying Hitler at this point in time and because he has this weird nose like a Drowzee. Nonetheless I still say that you should compress the file size, but other then that, the sheer audacity of doing somthing like this gives this a good score.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

The music quality would be worse then.

[xXColumns III ParodyXx]

A bit short.

Thats really the only bad thing for this submission. The idea is good, and it is quite funny, but it is just to short in my eyes. The graphics are what you would expect frmo a sprite submission. The story is good, but once again the flash is just to short. Next time add some more to it like one chicken asking the other chicken to play or somthing like that. All in all an average submission. With an abrupt ending.

WAaAzZAaA responds:

thanks ...i think

i said it was made for a collab, but i guess U dont read the introductions...And in most collabs the length of the parts are at a maximum of 20 seconds...so yeah its short =D
