Stannous's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Madness Abrogation]

VERY GOOD.

At first I was slightly disappointed, but as the movie went on I liked it more and more, and by the end I thought it was very well done, definitely one of the better editions of the series. I really like how you used tricky in this too.

A suggestion would be to continue putting in non-traditional-madness camera angles (as in not just side-scrolling 2d). Obviously the main action should stay as that 2d, but the occasional "3d" parts you throw in and different camera angles really add a lot.

The first track wasn't amazing but the 2 remixed themes were both very good.

[The Northern Incident]

Rather dissapointed.

Through most of the animation I was rather happy to see you were finally using your considerable animating talents to make something more worthwhile than Whacky Game Jokes For Kids.

Then you had to end it with a lame furry porn joke... It saddens me to see your talent wasted so.

[Dot Dot Dot - Animated]

great!

I think my favorite part of the whole thing was how the latin lyrics sound so much like the opening text... I replayed just to hear that again. Who would have thought "velut" sounded so much like "about."

Great animation!

[Super Mario bros Z ep.8 (old series)]

Sorry, but...

Sprite animation is not incredibly difficult, and you didn't actually have THAT much animation, so basically the entire flash was just a very long stream of text with occasional grunts and random italian. If the dialogue and story were interesting then it might've still been a good story, but basically you've just taken two existing stories and put them together, you haven't created anything new or original. The dialogue is at best too emotional and at worst a string of cliches. I'm sorry, but I don't enjoy watching a few sprites from games shake repeatedly until I hit space saying often immature and almost always excessively emotional lines, especially when they're completely unoriginal. I honestly do not understand how so many people on this website enjoy watching sprites from 2 old games (one of which is completely dead, the other has very little story) act like angsty teenagers.

[Madness - Preloaded II]

Haha

That was great! I loved the part when he dodges the huge gun's bullets and stands behind the guy for a few seconds.

LYRONMARTIS responds:

He's a bit of a teas ain't he...

[Madness: Rising]

Pretty Good!

Only reason it didn't get a ten was that it got a little repetitive at points, your bullet had a shell on it, and you used that grunt/roar sound waaaay too much lol.

[Madness Underworld]

Okay...

As a stand alone movie this was decent. It had fairly good animation and art, but when compared to the madness series it was a little below par... And since you seemed to copy a bunch of madness scenes almost exactly, it was hard not to compare it. I'm not a fan of naruto so all the powers and stuff weren't really to my taste... And the dialogue was somewhat poor. Half the lines seemed to start with "Ok..." and most just seemed ripped right out of some overly dramatic anime "LETS FINISH THIS!" etc.

FUCK

ITS NOT ANIME

I HATE THE ANIME

YOU DIDN'T CATCH THE MOVIE

[Cuboy Ep.3]

...?

I don't know if I'm missing something, but it just wasn't funny... It was a bunch of funny, but overused and therefore not-so-funny jokes, and original, but again not-so-funny jokes, combined with an art style that really added nothing.

[Syndication Ep. 1]

Better...

This was certainly better than some of the other crap you've submitted... As people have voted 5 and reviewed as 10, some of the humor obviously appeals to people in the same age group as you, but overall the humor isn't witty, it isn't unexpected, it isn't vaguely funny but vastly overdone (cock jokes), and overall you guys basically seemed to just draw a few pictures and put them into flash. Perhaps try to come up with a joke before animating, next time.

TheStarSyndicate responds:

Zerostar-Considering my age group is older than yours, maybe you'll get it when you're older :)

[Madness AK-47]

Eh...

I usually find these short and effortless flashes to be atleast mildly entertaining, but you sir have combined no music with sprites that aren't yours and 2 sound effects to create a terrible animation. You have one single joke in it, and while it's funny enough to get you a 3, overall this plainly sucks. If you're going to make a shit animation with one joke, atleast pick a funnier joke.

kanamomashouse responds:

2 sound effects? counting the preloader theres 3.
