Chris-Aldin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lizard Sphere X 2]

haha, great job!

This was truely a great DBZ spoof, one of the better ones i have seen for sure. I had only one big problem with this movie which i will explain later on. Everything else was excellent, im glad im actually liking DBZ here on ng, because their either spoofs or great different versions of it. This one is obviously a spoof, and a good one at that. Here is my review.

The graphics were awesome, they didnt quite like the real DBZ graphics, but then again they probably werent supposed to. It was a spoof after all. But the drawings were quite good, they were pretty smooth, and often nicely detailed. The same goes for the backrounds. The animation reminds me of DBZ, especially the facial expressions, when they twitch slightly. The style of this movie was great, but this is where that one problem comes it. This was a bit too short, something like this you have to keep going for longer. Your animating style was great though, and partially made up for the length. The idea is pretty clever, defintiely funny though and well presented. The sound was great, i found the voice acting quite good except a few instances, but the instances didnt matter very much. The sound effects were pretty cool as well.

Overall this was an awesome spoof, i enjoyed the humour in it. I hope you make a third Lizard Sphere X, i know i will laugh again. Way to go!

[LL - Final Fantasy: Lawk2]

Wow, you guys rock!

You guys are seriously getting better. There is so much less bad stuff coming from you guys, and it seems like there is a massive amount more of great things you guys are submitting. I can recall 4 good LockLegion submissions from the past 2 or three days. If that isnt consistancy, then i dont know what is! you guys are still earning more and more respect from me with each submission, heres my review.
.
The graphics are just as i like them to be with the Locklegion. Plainly aweseome. I absolutely love the drawings from you guys. They always seem to be so smooth and refined. The backrounds were wonderful too, i see effort in everything i look at! The animation was very verynice too, this is another signature thing from the locks, smooth animation to go with the drawings. The style of this movie was great too, and not just because of the animating style. The idea is actually pretty original, i mean seeing locks in final fantasy is just funny and cool at the same time. I wish i would have played those games, it would have been even funnier and overall a more amusing movie. The sound was great as well. I liked all the sounds, and the voices were actually pretty good in this one. I especially liked the part where lips just kept on laughing! Im sure this would even be funnier if i had played the games before.

Overall this was another great LockLegion submission, and im so glad you guys are helping out the portal often with great submissions. Dont make this the last one!

[The Real Mortal Kombat: 2]

Very good.

This was a very good movie man. I wish it was as good as the first, but something so good is very difficult to live up to completely. This still definitely wasnt bad at all. It was good in every way i can think of, and im glad you decided to continue this Real mortal Kombat series, and i hope you continue it even further. Here is my review.

The graphics are just like they were in the last episode. They were just good, nothing more nothing less. The drawings were decent, i liked how the characters looked for the most part. The detail has to improve though, there is some but a lot of it doesnt accentuate anything. The colours are also not bad at all. The animation is another thing id like to see improved. Theres not much of it and what ever you do have isnt great either. I must say it is improved over that of last episode. The style is good, work on your animating style a bit. I really like the idea of putting mortal kombat characters in real life situations. Its really creative and often very VERY funny. The sound is great, but i wish you kept the original scorpian voice. Yours sounds so much better for " I challenge you to mortal kombat!" Well it was still good :D. I liked the voice acting for the most part and some of the sound effects too.

Overall this was another great movie from you. Id love to see you improve in your next submission. Dont keep me waiting too long for #3. Well great job again, keep it up!

[The Story of a Computer]

One word: Great.

Great job on every aspect in this movie. I really enjoyed it. I saw the beginning of this yesterday while it was under judgement and it was very good. It was one of the movies i had to review the next day. And im glad i did end up watching it, it had everything youd really want. Well here is my review.

The graphics were great. The drawings were pretty good, i liked how the main character looked but a little more detail never hurts. I liked how all the graphics seemed to fit in with the idea, i wish i could explained what i meant. The animation was quite good too, very smooth, and the pop up stuff just made me laugh! The style was great in this movie too, and not just because of your animating style. The idea is pretty clever, and fairly original too. This is one of the only computer problem flash that were actually done well. Your presentation was funny, in a good way though. The sound was very good. I liked the voice acting but what impressed me here is the song when the pop ups were attacking. It was just about the perfect choice, and i just like it anyways. You also havea good sense of humour!

Overall this was a great movie, with a solid score that it certainly deservess. I hope you make more flash similar to this in the near future, i want to laugh again!

I'm certainly glad you enjoyed it. And your review is greatly appreciated! Gives me some good ideas for improvement in the future.

Took a long time to find that matching song. Haha.

[LL- Seizure Collab III]

The lock legion strikes again!

Wow you guys are seriously getting better and better with each submitted flash to newgrounds. Before i never liked the lock legion i must admit. But you guys over the past few months and since LockDay have earned so much respect from me. But each of the submissions with LL in front of it are just great. Way to go again locklegion. Here is my review.

The graphics were great in general, some clips in this seemed to have much less effort than others. The good ones really came through in the end though. The drawings were often good, and a lot of them had that smooth style that i love about the lock legion. The animation, again, seemed to be better in some clips than others, in general it was very good. The style of this collab was great, i always give high style points to collab anyways because its fun to see many different animating styles in one movie. I didnt like about this one though how i constantly had to look away from the screen because the seizure backrounds were really hurting my eyes. The sound was great, you had some very good song choices in there, but some clips brought it down, they just had like poor mic screaming stuff.

Overall this was another great lock submission. I think you should only accpet the clips with noticable effort. Well this is antoher reason why i love the LockLegion. Dont make this the last good thing you submit to the portal.

[S.M.B.2 Bloopers]

Absolutely Hilarious!!!

wow, awesome job on this man. Just as i said sprite animators are stepping it up, his enters the portal and further prooves my point. Well this was just great in every way i can think of. This is absolutely improved over the first, its good to see you put in that extra effort to make it succeed even further. Here is my review.

The graphics were great. I loved all the custon sprites you made, they were just plain great and often very funny. The other sprites all fit in with the movie better than last time. I like the use of more detailed sprites, last one was more old school. Constantly trying to improve seems to be what you are trying to do and youre doing just that. The style is awesome, for a couple reasons as well. First i liked how everything fit together, even with your own custom sprites. The idea is very orignal even with the use of Mario again. The presentation of your idea was near perfect,each clip was funny, at least a bit. The sound was excellent, i noticed this fairly early on as well. The sound effects were great, often hilarious. I loved what you did with the *BEEPS*, i seriously laughed my ass off the first time i watched this through. The sound just added a lot to the humour, and hence the final product.

Overall sprite animators are indeed stepping it up, and this is what id use as an example of my statement. I hope you keep getting better, and after this you must make a third! This is the funniest thing i have seen in a while, and i want to laugh that hard again!! Keep it up!!!

[Become]

Wow!! that was awesome!!!

That was certainly some of the best stop motion animation i have ever seen. Wow and just like that with almost no other flash to NG, you submit this and instantly impress me. I think you should also make clay movies to see how they turn out too. This, however, was just fantastic, i dont know where you got the idea from, or how you came about presenting it. What ever you did i loved, here is my review.

The graphics were absolutely good enough for a 10. This stop motion was incredible. Often it seemed as if the characters were moving on their own, rather them actually being animated. The character in the end was one of the best looking clay people i have seen. The graphics in this case are a good enough indicator of just how much effort you put into this, and as seen by the score effort goes a long way. The style of this movie is just about perfect because the only thing that isnt totally original about this is how people have done stop motion before. I have not seen a movie of a clay person being created before, well probably because there havent been any. Not only was the idea original, great presentation was there to accompany it. The sound actually wasnt totally necessary in this. I mean it did add to the final product positively but you didnt need it. Good choice of song by the way.

Overall this was an awesome movie. I dont think it quite has the score to show it though, so i will help by giving it a 5/5. Thats what i think all this effort deserves. Keep it up!
