BritishMoose's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Christmas Punishment]

Mistletoe rapings!?

Great graphics. Your cartoons are full of character and looking crisp like a frosty scottish morning. Ace job here.

Style-wise, there was a gratuitous use of the blur filter....it made it lag a smidgen...I'd try and refine my use of it, if I were you.

Sweet jesus I love that song. It reminds me of a Harry Enfield sketch I saw ages ago. The voice acting was a bit weak, but it still managed to do the job.

Humour: I feel it would have been funnier had the voice actor BELLOWED the line. The ending rape was highly amusing.

Overall, it was pretty solid. I enjoyed the brief and fleeting company of this rather merry cartoon. I hope you do something more substantial next time, as your characters reek of potential.

4/5: Nice one!

VictorVonVice responds:

thnx Moose. <3 much love to you. ^^

[Future]

Brilliant

This is probably the best advert for flash 8 I've seen. You managed to pull off some breathtaking effects while still retaining a sense of energy throughout. Some parts were a tad lazier than others, thus you fell short of full marks (blue guy taking off his helmet being an example), but this is a small gripe. An astounding experiment; very well done.

5/5

[Duck Luck Episode #4]

My 150th review!?

Please note, the review you are about to read is very hard to type as my space bar isn't working properly.

Graphics: They're original and pretty good. I can't say I've seen anything like them before. However, I found the lines a bit too rag-tag. They look like they need a good ironing, if you get what I mean. I'd be interested to see what they'd look like when you smoothed them out a bit.

Style: Your FBF is really good. I'm very impressed with the ammount of time you must've put in to create such awesome animation. I take my hat off to you, sir.

Sound: The voice recordings were all of a good standard, but I feel the voices need to be a bit more different.

violence....interactivity....

Humour: I didn't laugh, but it is kinda funny. I can't suggest improvements on script-writing.

Overall you get an 8. You're really getting somewhere with this series and I can't wait to see where it's headed. Next time, maybe make it a bit longer and try to include some out of House scenes.

4/5

Good work!

Snubby responds:

Thanks for the awesome review. I'll be looking into the voices and try to differentiate them a bit. Also, others have complained that the plots are boring, so I'll work on that too :D

[A Love Song]

Not too shabby.

The graphics were a bit choppy but pleasant. My advice would be to use the line tool to create celery-sharp edges for the characters as of the blunt and blundering of brush-tool.

The style was sorta nifty. I'd up the framerate as the tweens were somewhat jittery. Please add limbs next time. Also, no one plays the guitar with their hand behind it. That was lazy: you should have draw a hand!

Sound: Nice song.

Violence, Interactivity, Humour: etc.

Overall: The lip-sync was fine. I understand that this was a lip-sync project, but you should have really put more effort into other aspects of the cartoon. One example would be the hands. I'm sure you'll pull of something much more substantial and interesting next time.

Well done: 2/5.

MikeStand responds:

"Also, no one plays the guitar with their hand behind it"
What!? Everyone plays guitar with their hand behind the fret board, that's how you hold it!

Thanks for the advice though. The hands are intentionally as they are, mainly becuase, yes, it is alot easier, but also because that's the style I use.

[Anger Man]

I remember this from the flash forums!

Glad to see you finally finished it. It was prett funny actually...well, the bit with the cow made me chuckle a tiny, tiny bit (which is very good for a web-cartoon!) Excellent graphics, average animation and good use of music. My main concern is the animation, you can do better!
Keep it up!

Jimp responds:

Thanks for the review man, really appreciate it. Yeah, I need to work on my fbf animation a bit.

[TooF Hacky Sackory]

Don't say that, your voice is lovely.

This is (probably) my favourite TooF outing: The sound effects, sound (including voices) and lip-sync were all perfect. I had some problems when they were outside though: I guess you must've blurred the bacgkrounds, because they lagged horribley for me. Anyhoo, sorry to see TooF leave newgrounds; it was a good ride. Well done on pioneering the way with which Authors communicate with reviewers.

[-Singin' In The Snow-]

Erm...

Is it legal to copy the movements off an advert by tracing them and to then put it on ta website claiming that you made the whole thing? Just a question.

It makes me sad when you see someone with a 3+ score for something which is, essentially, not theirs. You did put a lot of time into tracing it, but it's still a shallo mockery of what flash should be about!

Sorry for broadcasting my views onto your page...it just bugged :(

Merry Christmas.
