Radioactive24's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bellum Letale]

Pretty sweet.

My only thought was that at one point the sound went off sync and then just kept getting worse. Did you strem the sound or use the event setting?

Other than that, I thought it was nice. A little dark, but they were mostly silhouettes.

All I can say is you better pass the class :3

alkr00 responds:

haha, i think have a pretty good chance of passing the class, even with a few missing assignments XD.
i did not use event settings, because im on the level1 class right now, and audio along with action scripting was not a big part of it.

thank you for the feedback! appreciate it a lot.

[TurboGrafx Villains]

You embedded a video?

And that's it.

It doesn't even load.

[Quick Madness]

Short and Bad

Cool. No plot, like 5 seconds long, and you didn't draw any of it yourself.

Arthurtobastico responds:

fuck ya man!
is my first try and u expect me to draw them!
talk about the animation and give advises!

[Bowja From His Cashle]

BEEEOWJA AND HIS CAAAAASHLE

:D

It was on the same level as a Stamper parody.

For how long it probably took you, it was actually funny.

[Street Fighter Revival]

I'll completely support any accusations

Even though I've made sprite movies myself and I know how challenging it is/isn't, I have to say this is only a half decent one.

You don't really have a grasp on the whole "v-cam" thing, especially since whenever you zoom in or pan something, you distort your image. Sadly, that's easily avoidable by scaling the cam and not resizing(hold in shift when you resize). That's just a minor yet bothersome detail to me.

As far as originality goes, I actually read your author's notes *gasp* or rather, where they should be. Instead, it's you complaining about other people's complaints about how your work is unoriginal, which it is, unfortunately. You even get pissy about how people accuse you of ripping ideas from Proxide(which was my first thought when you had the feaux-menu pop up, considering it looks just like his exactly, just less photoshopped and more flashed).

Overall, yes, the sprites looked nice, but you really didn't have much plot to your movie, and I felt I should have watched some sort of prequel or had a backstory. Your spelling is atrocious(ex. "jeperdizing" instead of "jeopardizing") and you grammar is horrible(Not capitalizing names and first words of a sentence, using commas(or lack thereof)), and in general it was poorly written for what dialog there was.

As far as you bashing on Proxide, he only notes one other movie that "inspired" him to make his own, but he never claims originality. He might not have been the first, but similar to Alvin-Earthworm, he has taken his other abilities outside of Flash and incorporated them into an interesting and creative story, none of which you have.

You didn't make any of the art, really, except for the poorly made menu(which I think you used a stock button on anyways). The sprite animation was decent, but nothing special, seeing as everything was standard or stock, nothing personally created.

Overrall, it's a pretty bad movie for you to get so huffy about it.

No matter what you think your movie "deserves", it's going to get the score it warrants from voters. Contrary to what some people have said(Jackosender), this movie is somewhere on the low end of decent and nowhere near awesome. This is NOT Top 5 quality, this is NOT Frontpage quality, and you should really try harder next time when you want something. Putting in more effort usually yeilds better results, especially art-wise.

My Protip: Learn to use Photoshop for menus and special effects. Not only is Flash not really capable of making a sexy menu, it's really only good for coding it and putting some animation into it. As far as special effects, there's no need to get so heavy-handed with them, but stock effects are quite bring and it's nice to see variety.

You get a "meh" rating. 2/5.

I think I voted lower because I felt your movie score was inflated and I wanted to lower it, which I did.

Good luck next time.

rosecicmil responds:

yes you was right. i was just angered at the time and never changed the authors comment. i thank you for your constructive criticism and for the few tips you gave me. once again a am sorry for what i have wrote earlier if anyone read it.

[Apples.]

Pretty Good

Cute, simple and funny.

The art style also had a very Dan Paladin feel to it.

[rtil_gayness.swf]

So few actually get it

I was gonna be like "WTF, YOU FUCKING STOLE THIS" and then it was a headshot.

I doubt anyone has actually seen this on his dA.

Nice twist though. I lol'd.

[Stupid Mario Bros. 3]

Not that good, I'm afraid

First, you need to learn how to edit sprites using Flash and/or Photoshop or MSPaint. The sun thing was horrible.

Your "Inbetweeners" were pretty bad, there should be somethingto keep me interested.

All the "special effects" you did were bad. Luigi's head in the first part was attrocious. The eyes... So easy to make.

The animation was decent, but not fluid enough really. To that note, learn how to use the Ease command, that'll make things nicer when you figure it out.

All in all, it was unoriginal and not very well done.

2/5

tank2tank responds:

I know the sun thing messed up, but I think it was the only time I couldn't get the sprite properly.
Inbetweeners... whatever, its only a 5 second wait.
Special effects... eyes easy to make? Well, yeah... so what? Is that really a problem in a movie like this?
I DID use the ease command.
