Chris-Aldin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pikmin: Reality Check]

Lol good job.

Ha that was pretty good man. I have never seen a quality pikmin flash before so it was great to see one. The graphics were pretty good. you obvioulsy put effort into them. Style was this movies best part. As i said Pikmin parodies are non existant on Newgrounds and its awesome to see one. I love your colourful animating style. Sound quality was good, but im not a big fan of hanson.... chose a better song next time if you can. I loved the ending. That was truely unexpected!... i fell said for all those pikmin now.

Overall this was great and fun to watch. Make more parodies to this or maybe some other games you dont see being made fun of. Either way keep up the good work! 4/5

Kapungo responds:

Thank you very much for the lengthy review, this sort of feedback really helps. I'm glad you liked the film, and you can count on me to choose a much better song in my next flash. And good idea, I'm planning on making a few more in the "Reality Check" series, based around other games that don't get parodied often. Cheers.

Ha it was still kind of funny.

Yeah...i havent seen the movie yet so thats why is wasnt quite as funny to me. It was still pretty good in terms of animation, voice acting, audio quality, and style. The graphics were pretty good, some of the better graphics ive seen in the past couple days. Animation was also well done. Style was funny, putting a few jokes into a short flash. That method usually doesvery well. Sound was good, i liked the high audio quality and the great voice acting. It was funny, but i havnt seen the movie..sooo.

Either way i still liked this. Maybe when i see the movie i will come back and watch this again. We''ll see....we will definitely see.....4/5

[StarWarsAFP: Part 1 Act 2]

better than act 1!

Yup this was good, better than the last. The animation actually seemed better in this one. I dont know if it was just me or it actually was. This one also had less to do with star wars, and more humour and random occurances. thats why i think its doing so much better, its much funnier. I basically said everything in the last one so im not going to go through it all again.

Great overall. I really want to see part 3. Keep up the effort and good work! 4/5

Thank you, I am personal a lot happier with this one then the first act, I will continue to try hard to improve more and more with each cartoon I do

[StarWarsAFP: Part 1 Act 1]

Nice work.

This is purely based on people's love for star wars and the humour element of flash, becuase nothing amazed me. To get that "OMG" factor the graphics have to be insane, and the sound has to be amazing. The graphics in this were better than average but still not the greatest. Drawings alone were good, but when the animation began they were sort of messed up. that will just come with time, so its not a big deal. I know i cant do anything nearly as good as that. Style was great, i love star wars parodies. They are always very funny in my opinion. Sound was good, though the quality could be higher. I realize the quality had to be sacrificed a bit becuase its a long flash and the file size is fairly large. The voice acting was ok, but i think they could be a little better. Some voices were obviously better done than others. Humour was this flash's high point. Crammed full of funny starwars jokes, and some other jokes that were put in a star wars setting. For example when that one storm trooper was listening to music and singing along. LOL that was probably my favourite part in the whole movie.

Overall you did a good job. In the future i want to see your skillz get better and better. Now im off to watch Part 1, Act 2. 4/5

silentmike86 responds:

Thank you, what a great review

yes I will always make sure the animation improves with each cartoon I do (so far it seems to have), voice acting I hope is better in part 2, its really a case of I like it but does everyone else, and the sound I am working hard to make it of better quality.

Any way thank you for such a great review :)

[CounterStrike: N00b Wars]

Looks awesome!

This really does look liek its going to be funny as hell. I was so dissapointed to see that this was a trailer. I enjoyed that short bit so much. I love Counter Strike, but i moved on to Counter Strike Sorce, but tht doesnt mean i cant enjoy the full movie!

Take your time and dont rush anything. I want the result to be awesome! CANT WAIT! 4/5

[A tale of The Skull]

A great start...

...to what could be an amazing full flash animation. I think you got all the skillz necessary to make a fantastic flash. I understand you did not have much time, i say go back and improve on this in any way you planned and then resubmit it. Either way right now its results are pretty good. Around a 3.7 or so, thats much better than most flash. Imagine a completed version... So the graphics good. At some points the animation was amazing at others, it seems you went just a tiny tiny tiny bit overboard with the FBF. Smooth animation throughout. Style was pretty good, i havent seen a movie with this kind of story line. Never have i seen anything close to this, great originality. Sound, as you said, could be better in many ways. First, you need more sound effects than this. There were a few but they didnt quite do it. Second, add more music then jus the music at the end. The song at the end seemed a little messed up, i dont know if that was jsut me or not. Third, you gotta improve the audio quality, if you can.

Overall it came out fairly well. Also if you can respond to this review and tell me maybe when a completed version will be out and what you will do to improve on this one. Still, this has potential so here is a 4/5.

BlacKSnaX responds:

Thanks for the good review and advice,

I am still undecided as to improve this instead of giving my time to simply making something better from scratch.

If I do improve upon it, I will probably do it in bits, as I am quite tired of drawing that dinosaur thing, as you can imagine.

Audio does give me a problem, especially in a piece like this as I simply can't find the sounds I want (I even recorded the footsteps by hitting my microphone against a sofa)

My next peice will take into account your feedback, I promise ;)

[Zelda's PRIDE force]

Haha Nice job!

Great work on this! Your last 2 submissions have been just awesome. You can really animate well. Your graphics are well drawn, and detailed. Each character looks like they do in the game. The actual animation is quite good, its smooth and its easy to tell what is going on. Style was great! You took the zelda series and turned it into something way different. Still with the same characters but a whole new set of humour. Your animating style is great aswell. Good sound! I liked the voice acting and the sound effects, though the audio quality could be a little better. Also you definitely got a sense of humour. There were many jokes crammed into this, like Zelda being a lesbian...HAHA that was totally unexpected. Your last submission, Sheik Be A Woman, was hilarious too. That one wasnt long enough though. This submission improves on the length by a lot.

Overall this was awesome. Keep up with the zelda spoof cartoons in the future! 5/5
