Dew's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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!

[How 2 Succeed on NG]

Good stuff.

Now this is definatley daily feature worthy. Not only because of the score, but because of the sheer awesomeness. Each point you brought out just seemed to add on to what you were trying to prove and the great animations just added on to the already steller submission. The voice actingw was also done very well and really added a sense of charisma to the great submission. Overall I would call this submission one of the future submissions you go to, to truly look at somthing special and great. Nice job.

[Clip vs someguy who kills]

You're 22?

I'm sorry, but the sheer quality of the submission, combined with the stupid if not unprovoking storyline really dosen't cut it in my eyes. I'm willing to look over the poor quality of the graphics, but the storyline alone is just terrible. Next time ask yourself "Is this story thought provoking, does it make people want to watch my submission?" Nonetheless that's really the only thing that I find to be wrong with the submission. But even though it is the only thing, it's a major thing that needs fixing. Poor submission.

[Spades and Shovel EP1]

Your classic first.

Now this is one of those "classic" first submissions. One of those submissions that is made just to be made, or submitted. Nonetheless if it's done in paint you didin't do a bad job with it, even if the story itself is lackluster at best. Next time make the submission longer, or at least have some sort of story to it, not somthing that I could have thought up in kinderschool. Nonetheless the graphics were good for paint and all in all, other then the story the submission was bad. You have potential for sure.

[Hole in the head]

Hm,.....

I don't know what to say about this, to be honest with you.. Perhaps this is derived from a past expierence? Again, I will give you points for style, and creativity and effort into the submission. My advice is to maybe add some more color to it, but other then that you have quite a good submission. My advice if you want a better score, is a better message, to describe this submission. Nonetheless it's a good submission. Deserves a three in my book.

[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.
