KaosuKaiari's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Magical Mystery Tour]

Improvements are possible but it's not bad.

Not too bad. Graphics are anyway way too basic, depending on your skills I would advise you to use Photoshop and train yourself using it to avoid using the basic flash gfx effects. (Otherwise, there are other softwares, SAI Paint Tool is not bad either) Concerning the content, it's not a bad attempt at making some fake ad, of course there's a bit of humor as it's impossible anymore to meet all of the Beatles, that and the fifth Beatle thing that made me chuckle a bit. It could be better, but it's not bad for a start.

MrShears responds:

Thanks, I'll keep this in mind for when I make my next flash submission

[Nothing But Michael]

Hehe

I think here the crude graphics were meant to be like that, and it just adds to something I particularly like: silliness but actually funny situations. It's exactly the case here, I couldn't stop myself from laughing because this is both so true and well parodied. And I'm not even an american citizen, but it's the same everywhere else. MJ here, MJ there.

Also, I can just foresee people who are going to bawww about that animation because they're gonna childishly complain about "HOW U GOT NO RISPECT FOR MJ BAWWWW"... You did an excellent job, and it's the point of parodies, proving you can laugh of everything without excessively mocking the target. Ignore the bawwers, get the 5 you deserve. =)

RecD responds:

Wow, you're the most intelligent person i've met on newgrounds so far.

I'm really glad you liked it. Look out for more.

[Cute Anime Girls!]

Needs serious improvements

Still learning or not, by submitting this, you imply that you accept receiving critiques, which is all the point since you're still learning and critiques aren't here to annoy you but to help you improve yourself.

So, basically, you are creating an anime slideshow, which is a bit basic of an idea but if that's what you want to go with... so well, I saw a few flaws that you should get fixed:
- First, the "slideshow theme", that "vacation" thing, is unrelated, so choose something more generic.
- Next, you have too few pics, and no particular theme for this slideshow to be any kind of interesting. Gather more pics, and focus yourself on one theme only (example: fifty pics of Naruto)
- That said, try finding rare, or especially interesting pics, and not anything you'd pick up on google image frontpage or such. However this is merely speculation, it's just to give your slideshow more value if you do.
- I found very annoying that the buttons had such a tiny clickable area, clicking elsewhere pops me up to the website of the program you used to make this. Which is annoying. Some may flag this as a malicious submission since it can be considered as mere spam.

Overall, keep learning, and come back when you feel your skills have grown for the better. Good luck.

chazman17 responds:

i plan to fix that by uploading the fixed version tomarrow sorry about that.

[Bastard Frank]

No real humor.

Honestly I don't see how the humor here is dark. I've seen darker. In fact there's no real humor at all besides the fact he becomes crazy for not finding his milk.
However, I was pleasantly surprised of the animation fluidity. For that, and just that, it saves itself from a too low score... but next time, if I can give you a good advice: try to plan a good joke before making your animation.

fearing responds:

you obviously have no sense of humour.

[life's framerate]

Haha, yeah

I hope this gets... OVER 3.32. It was just awesome!

[Pokémon XD parody]

Okay

As you asked for, here are the found typos:

Miror B. => Mirror B. (I guess?)
"I'm going to use my intelligence" => "I'm going to use my knowledge" would fit better
Weegee => NOT A TYPO BUT OH GOD IT WAS UNEXPECTED. XD

Also, why the hell did you put "What I'm Made Of" from Sonic Heroes in the end? I don't want to sound harsh but... Just unfitting.

Overall, graphically it was basic, could be a lot better but it doesn't really need to. After all it's a parody. On the sound, it's okay, maybe quality flaws and a music a bit too loud, but I won't complain.
Neat job, you get a 3.

Foxpwned responds:

It´s "Miror"...yeah,I know it sounds strange,but that´s his true name.
"I will use my knowledge" Ok,I think it´s better too.
the "metal overlord ending" ...well,now that you mentioned...I´m going to change too.

thanks for the review!it was very useful!

[The One-Armed Assassin]

Sorry.

7,1 MB for something so short? Meh, I'm disappointed. It's short, and the image quality is not that good. Oh yeah maybe "yes but claymations are long and painful and difficult and blah" but I still am disappointed. It's too bad to post something so big for something that is so short.

MikeFlash responds:

yeah i am really confused why all my claymations take up so much space.
this was only 104 very low quality frames so it shouldn't be. Like i said i am having trouble with the remake's size it is around 20 mb right now so that is way out.
if you have any ideas on how to reduce the file size PM me and i would really appreciate it.

[RE-UNdead:dopey's driving]

Not bad!

It was pretty sarcastic, and quite fun to watch. I liked it, the animation was smooth, and I really liked the voices. Voting this 3. It's not bad, I like it.

[Homemade YouTube advert]

Great!

It was funny as heck. Silly and slightly satirical, just like I love'em. Great job, buddy.

[ninja fight awesome 2]

So-so.

Animation was quite choppy... the fight itself was... graphically bland, but long enough to make me want it to actually see it. However, very very very, and I mean it, very bad choice on the music. DON'T. USE. SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG. OST. It's crap. Even Shinobi III songs could fit better than this. Not too bad, I won't vote blam on this. Hope to see you again with improvements.
