Glitcher2000's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pass-my-Flash 2]

Excellent!

Very imaginative, intuitive, original, and most of all, enjoyable. It's also a pleasure watching arists display feats of spontateous creativity.

[The Pen is Mightier...]

Okay-ish

Meh. It's an interesting concept, but I found it got pretty dull after a while. There wasn't all that much variation and the bullet took too long to go through its metamorphosis to retain my attention. A rather average animation.

[The Nut Job (part 1)]

Excellent work!

God, this is a breath of fresh air after all the junk I've seen on the site recently. The animation was superb, as well as synching it to the music. I particularly enjoyed the subtle 3D effects on certain elements like the buildings by scaling two layers. Clever. Your pacing, humour and editing are all top notch. I can see you becoming a talented professional with this kind of skill. Eagerly awaiting the next part!

[The English Paper]

Hardly stellar

I don't feel like this movie had much substance. There was potential for something better, but it never really amounts to much. Composing the essay was overly long, as if you were hell-bent on synching the animation to the whole background music. There was nothing really unexpected or funny about it, save for a hollow "It felt a little rushed" remark. If this is the kind of 'true story' you wish to share with others, you must lead a very dull life.

[The Hyrde Ep. 1]

Great animation, rubbish storytelling

*sigh* I hate it when this happens. I hate it when a talented artist comes along with a great work of animation to share... only for it to fall flat with a lousy story. I deliberately avoided reading the description before watching, because it's in the animation itself where information should be given. Sadly, there is none. Who are these people? Why are they acting like lumberjacks? What the hell was that tacked-on fight sequence? I feel like I've fallen in media res. You would have been better off going back to the beginning and writing a proper introduction. I can't say this episode draws me to the series when all I'm left with is confusion.

[Reboot!]

Endless loop of boredom

I think the only thing worse than the movie is that fact that you think everyone liked it. Read my lips: THIIIIIIIISSS SUUUUUUUUUCKS!!!!

[Still Alive - Portal]

A bit disappointing

Am I the only one who was underwhelmed by this? You say you took forever to get this up, but the movie is disappointingly simple. Most of it is a singing face, and the rest is a few scenes with stick figures involving very simplistic animation. I'm a pretty slow artist/animator, but even I wouldn't have spent more than three days on this. Why on Earth did you need two weeks, Scott?

[Legend Of Zelda:Misguided]

Very nice effort

Very cute and smoothly animated. You did a commendable job warping the characters according to inertia. S'just a shame the joke at the end fell a little flat (no pun intended). Perhaps a few extra jingles could have livened it up. Music was sorely lacking.

[Megaman's Quest Part 1]

Pathetically funny

Oh crumbs, this is about as bad as you can get. Honest. The sprites are very inexpressive with almost no animation whatsoever, the sound is mediocre (that buzzing noise for any energy output is laughably inadequate), the 'story' is a vile mish-mash of MM universes, the text scrolls too quick and is a schoolteacher's nightmare, and the whole thing just has "FAIL!" written all over it. Usually I just pass over mince like this, but after reading all the overwhelmingly negative reviews (and your incompetence at accepting them gracefully), I had to watch this in full. And I could tell you one thing: it made me laugh. It's rare that a Flash makes me laugh this hard. Just watching Dr Light 'explode' over and over again with one of Flash's built-in effects deserves its place in so-bad-it's-good history. Sadly, I don't think comedy is what you had in mind. So while this is often unintentionally hilarious, it's still just a heap of trash just this side of being blammed. The final nail in the coffin is that I'm astonished you were 24 at the time of animating this movie. I'd expect this from a twelve year-old, but not from a full-grown man. I doubt you can ever redeem yourself after this. Oh, and somehow I predict this negative criticism is just going to get another "0/1 people found this review helpful", since I suspect you're the one who disapproves all the time. ¬_¬

PS. The guy below me is obviously mental.

[The Real Legend 2]

A worthy Zelda cartoon

Very good indeed. The submission's strongest point is easily the lovely attention to detail you put on the artwork. Despite remaining the silent protagonist, Link is very emotive as the gangly would-be hero playing second fiddle to Navi. You have to love his heroic fantasy about Saria. Everything else is crisp and colourful, and I had a fan's pleasure in recognising various background elements from the games. (Kudos on the Play button!)
It's also very funny. If not from Link's misadventures, then from his trusty steed... mule, or the pathetic Poe Sister challenge. Some parts did seem to drag on a bit, though. Maybe a bit of background music to fill in those slow, uneventful moments would have been appropriate. Then again, the audio itself leaves much to be desired. It sounded like it was filtered through a jock strap, and I wouldn't be surprised if the voice acting was a bored first take. Go a little easy on the filters in future, too. It's better to understand what the characters are saying than drowning it out in effects. Subtitles might therefore not be necessary.

Having said that, you put a lot of effort into this and it shows. I think this submission deserves the recognition it got, and I'll give it one more credit by placing it on my faves list. Good job!
