watsdis's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bath]

Nice, although...

this flash was wrong from the start. A minor exploring the depths of the bathtub in the absence of a gaurdian? the concept feels wrong.

[Toaster-Hand Man]

lol

woop woop woop from Zoidberg?

Mikextro responds:

I think Atomik, voice actor for Microwave Shins (not to mention THM), did it justice.

[asdfmovie]

lol funny

Very entertaining but the sound for the static cut scenes is too loud in comparison to the volume of the rest of the flash. It is very annoying when it comes to the cut scenes because of this.

[Random Violence 2]

Hard to judge but still entertaining

A good critic reviews the entire length of work. He/She endures whatever is thrown at them in order to give an in depth, full bodied and helpful review. Yet i find with this submission hard to determine when it is ending if not comprehending the slow frame rate of this work.
I give merit to the clarity of what is actually happening despite slow frame rates, since it is very clear when coupled with distinct sounds.
Surely you can think of something better than a few guys punching, kicking and shooting each other. Random violence as suggested in the title seems to get the most of us in terms of the human condition of curiosity but this has turned out to be an atrocity, as it perhaps should be with all sorts of universal violence but thats is to be debated else where. You flash is poorly done at best, and judging by Random Violence 1 you have improved very little which is a disappointment towards yourself and the expectation of the community within and outside Newgrounds. Blow us away with something spectacular in your next flash.

[naruto lives]

Good effort but somewhat bland

Mediocre at best. In a house party the rule of thumb is to never do the number two in the toilet. You'll punish everyone there and it is not worth it to those lining up.
Here you've don't just that. You've don't the number two. Yes I've been having a great time and all at this party but you come along with this atrocity.
What you should have done is catch a cab home and do the number two there. It's a $14 poo, but thats the price you have to pay. That s the price.
Surely a more refined and detailed attempt in this flash submission should have seen you with favored better heights, but i am somewhat disappointed with this flash submission, in terms of your development of skill demonstrated through your other flashes. Nonetheless I did somewhat slightly enjoy this, but as mentioned in previous comments alot needs to be improved.
Strangely entertaining and that is what i liked best about this.

[Akatsuki Chronicles Ep.2]

Needs refinement, but potential is there.

Horrible, if not an embarrassment to your seemingly fan interest in Naruto.
You've somehow turned you somewhat a tribute flash to Naruto into degrading it further for fans and non fans alike.
Unimpressive at best and could use improvement. I can see the concept is there, which is great, but its delivery is horrible.
A good critic states the obvious, and is not afraid to be honest. I hope you see the big picture and turn your direction else with more effort.

Gokuslilbrother responds:

But I love Naruto!

[wut]

Inappropriate and shameful

I give merit to the style and quality of the visuals, but implemented in the context of a penis is very disappointing, inappropriate and lets the entire flash down.
Your previous works are varied and mediocre at best but this is an embarassment to your collection of flashes and to yourself.
The world is often unkind to new talent, and this atrocity is nothing to be remarkably proud of both from yourself, the community within Newgrounds and the greater audience. It is a shame that from such humble origins one would think such skill is wasted on material like this.
Sure Newgrounds welcomes a variety of content, but the dignity of yourself and your image is whats important.

mrevaaaaa responds:

I respect your opinion but i think that you are posting reviews like this in the wrong place because for one thing: alot of newgrounds likes cock jokes. Tankmen is celebrated and although it has some other clever jokes there were some cock ones thrown in their too. Tom fulp, dan paladin, johnny utah; cock jokes man, cock jokes. They're fuckin' awesome.

And I don't know what dignity you were talking about that i lost from my other flashes because i animated my friend wacking off and made a dress up game with 3 different types of dicks.

No offense to you really, but to some people, cock jokes are the fucking bomb. Simple, completely tasteless, but funny none the less.

[Treader of the Dust]

Good, but disturbing in many ways.

In many ways creepy yet gripping and disturbingly entertaining.
Perhaps more refinement in detailing your backgrounds and characters will give this concept and content a massive boost of credibility. For example, through the window i see two trees. They are identical which i dont realise and is not a matter at hand. What concerns me is their placement. A window in which you look out and see the full outline of the two trees? This comes across as unrealistic and artificial.
There are many other things you can improve on and as a first submission on NG it is not bad. The music although is very suspenseful and well choreographed with the animation. You've done well on your audio selection.

[Monster's Dream]

9/10

In many ways the work of a critic is easy. He risks very little yet enjoys a position over those who offer up their work and theirselves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism which is fun to write and to read, but the bitter thrill critics must face is that within a grand scheme of things, an average piece of junk is probably more meaningful that our criticism designating itself.
But there are times where a critic truly risks something. And that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. Here, I've experienced something new. To say that both the flash and its maker has challenged my preconceptions about monsters is a gross understatement.
They have rot me to my core.
Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius behind this flash who is, in this critics opinion, nothing less than one of the finest flashes on Newgrounds. I will be returning to see more flashes from you, hungry for more.

animatorjones responds:

talk about motivation to keep creating...

thanks for taking the time to write this and give an honest review, ill be sure to continue and make more, and hopefully ill see more on the portal from you too! (just watched your collab piece, nice work :D

anyway good luck to you,

[Dont Mess With Cheese]

2/10

Preconceptions were generally something of quality laugh out loud entertainment. Sadly otherwise.
