Imahilus's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cornell DVD]

>>

it isnt bad for a first movie
it is bad compared to my normal standards
but youve shown that you actually think.. (thats rare amongst NG people!)

some tips:
- work on a more frame to frame basis
not make a movie clip of walking and make that
clip float across the screen
- dont use so many ready made fills...
i think that is a sign of a starter..
then again, you are a starter (so no deduction of points)
- shade your houses
either by the liniar fill or other methods..
blank walls somehow wont do

anyways,
its very decent to just good! for a beginner
good luck with future projects!!!

[Imp, episode 3]

needs work

it needs quite some work
your on the good track though
its a rather basic concept
yet done in a pretty original way

some things you should work on:
- sound quality, DEFINITLY!!
- synching sound to animation
- smoothening the animations (walking in particular)

good luck!

RogerregoRRoger responds:

yeah, you gotta point..A rather cliche point tough since i hear it a lot.Why don`t i do something about it you ask?Well, first of all i work in advance, meaning that if i do something about it now you won`ty notice untill after at least 7 episodes..And the biggest reason, the voice actors are kinda annoying and slow..so I rush the movie off after i finally receive the lines after waiting for 3 weeks, like i did with this episode...

[Xombie: Chapter 2]

how the heck did i end up with such a high score?

Very smooth animations
Excelent graphic quality
Old sounds, oddly enough fitting neatly..
Good thoughts behind it

a 9,
1 being worst of the worst
10 being perfect
a 9 is above excelent
its near perfection
i votes a 5 on the panel

i can only pray you keep up this quality
for i have seen good professionals do far worse!

[The Tribute To RYU]

at least i wont go as far as calling it crap

its bad, that i admit
lots was off-screen
and it was more of a movie of random clips with no coherence then.. a normal movie

there isnt much for me to point out
you need to work on almost everything :-/
good luck though...

[(2003)Knoxs Klay World3/6]

a 8.4!!

you get a 8.4 from me
on a scale from 1 to 10
1 being the worst of the worst
and 10 being completely perfect...

some hints:
- it could use some more characters
- humor could be a bit faster (sometimes it appears a bit long)

but still, EXCELENT JOB KNOX!!

[badger ver.1]

great

though you need to synch the animations more
after a while they drift from the music
with the 'mushroom mushroom' for example allready ended, and then it shows the mushrooms!
so...
the animation needs some synching

[Sephiroth vs. Mogs]

a firm 6!

i know a 6 doesnt seem high
but i class a 6 as pretty high
a 10 in my book is close to perfection (and you know how hard it is to get something perfect in other peoples eyes!)
its a nice movie

a sequal would indeed be nice

and im just wondering, how did you do the distortion?
i know one way, which is pretty clumsy...
just using the background, copy it and keep only a circle
and just move it around

anyways, good luck on future projects!

[Just Another Day 3 Part 1]

oki

oke,
the overall what i give you is 7
yet i think a +1 upgrade due to the splendid length and optimal usage of that length is needed

its great
maybe next time you can try and use non stick-figures?
even though the stick figures in your movie got their touch :)

dont really got anything to comment on...
for the better or the worse...
its splendid, good job

[Blink 2]

...

i voted a 2 for the protection

your on the right track, keep going
youll get better someday!
everybody starts from the bottom, and you either climb the ladder or fall into the abyss

i hope for you that you will climb, you got the potential to be great

[Sprite Warz!!]

it lacks stuff

it looks fine
fitting sounds etc.
their all not that smashing, but thats not the problem

it just lacks coherence
it needs plot, or some kind of visible line
these scenes looked very random in my eyes
i voted a 1, because im sure there are loads of NG people who only vote with 0's and 5's
it didnt damage the score (else i wouldnt have voted it, because its not that bad)

good luck :)
