Ghosty22's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Larvae]

Pretty Cool...

This reminds me of my grandmother's house...

Ansel responds:

you have an odd grandmother

[Batman Hates Robin]

Pretty cool.

I never realized that Robin was such a douche.

How come their teeth are green?

vlaktemaat responds:

i did that to exaggerate the grossnes of the whole situation...

[Alex Seryoua: Episode I]

Kinda cool...

On the moon, there isn't enough gravity to walk normally. You sort of hop. Not sure if you care... The voice acting could've sounded a bit more authentic.

danomano65 responds:

Yeah i don't care. haha. but the voice acting is good. it was her first time doing it and i liked her voice. get over it.

[Albi, the racist dragon]

Nice!

That was pretty funny. Pretty DAMN funny, in fact!

Gnydsmelt responds:

Thanks Ghosty! :D

[Madness in Brackenwood]

Nice...

Really nice backgrounds. I'm also curious how you made the images blurry --like the cigarette smoke. I've made transparent images a lot in the past with the alpha function, but I'm not sure how to blur images. Also the stuff you did that looked 3d was pretty cool too. How to you do that stuff?

Gnydsmelt responds:

First of all, THANKS. Well i used plenty of filters to make things blurry, of course you need Flash 8 to do that kind of stuff with filters. It wasn't really real 3d, i fbf'ed alot on that scene to make it look like 3d. It works better then you think actually, got no experience in 3d animation but i think i did that motion pretty good. Try it out yourself and see.

Thanks for reviewing!

[Somewhere In Nevada]

This was a bit choppy...

But maybe that's just because you were rushing. That's pretty much the only thing that needed to be improved is the choppiness. The artwork, even though it was based on Krinkels's artwork, seemed as if it had a unique feel to it, which made it kinda of cool --the hand-drawn aspect of it, that is...

I also liked the part where Hank was going through the building, and he saw some other guys that were dressed similarly to the way he was dressed. In stead of fighting them, he just nodded hello and moved on. I don't know why, but that was cool.

soakdeathwish responds:

Thanks. The bit where he nods to the other guys is just a little private joke I put in for some mates of mine, so I'm glad it seems amusing in general. I wasn't sure whether to leave it in cos it breaks up the flow a bit, but in the end I decided that was a good thing. I hope everyone else agrees.

[Summer Camp: Episode 1]

Nice work!

Your animation style is gold. I also thought the story was original and pretty cool.

What frame rate was that? 24 fps? It was nice... Fluid. Keep these mofos comin'...

ExcellentFriends responds:

Next episode is only going to be 12fps to save time, as well as to avoid some major sync and size issues we encountered due to our frame rate.

Glad you enjoyed!

[An Unforgotten Christmas]

Not the best...

As much as I love the Unforgotten Realms series, this one was probably the worst one. Instead of peeing myself from the uncontrollable laughter, as is normally the case, this movie just made me feel awkward. It just seems as if, normally, the dialog between Mike and Rob is really tight and well done. Each character has his own role... Mike is the smart one, Rob is the dumb one who screws around. This new girl (Kagome? Again? Is there a series she isn't in?) seemed as if she was playing Rob's role sometimes and then Mike's role at other times... It just seemed as if she wasn't well thought out. Rob's character, being pushed aside from the goofball role seemed as if he didn't quite know what to do... That inconsistency made it really awkward. Also, as painful as it is to Kagome, or Rita-Chan, or whatever it is people are calling her these days, I just don't think she's that good... And she's in EVERYTHING... Not for nothing, but do flash animators have... You know... Female friends? Maybe a girl you know might want to give acting a shot... Rob Moran's acting was and is always really good. When he acts, everything's tight, and it flows smoothly... It seems natural... Kagome not only has a high-pitched voice, but her voice always sounds lifeless... It's as if she's just reading from a page into the mic.

I wish she'd take some acting lessons or something, since I can't seem to avoid her work. Maybe she could just try to memorize her lines, and psych herself up a bit more to get into character... That way her voice wouldn't have that same old "reading" feel to it.

Normally I don't like to write views for movies I didn't enjoy, because most people can't handle criticism, and they just say I'm being abusive, but I'm not saying this with any hatred or disgust. I love the other episodes, and I'm just trying to comment as honestly and truthfully as I know how, because I really believe in this series and your talent... Hopefully what I say is of some use to you...

Sirschmoopy responds:

I am glad I got to read this before some jackass marks it as abusive and newgrounds takes it down because OH NO IT'S GIVING ME A LOW SCORE. Anyway, this movie from start to finish was done in 3 days.

I got all the voices back from Rina-Chan on the 18th. She was a great voice actor and in terms of finding female voices on the internet there limited. It's obvious that you judged this film not on it's quality but out of personal spite for not likeing the voice actress I picked. The fact that you harass her by thinking you need acting lessons is just silly. Do you think I need acting lessons too? Fuck I'm not an actor, animator, or writer. I like to think I'm a bard when it comes to these things, a jack of all trades but a master of none.

It's sad that you are ripping an entire cartoon on personal dislike of one aspect of it. The female character fills a role neither Mike or Rob can fill. A girl. This lets me do a wide range of jokes and funny situations I couldn't do with Rob and Mike and having three characters allows me to switch up the roles of Rob and Mike.

Why should I always have one dumb and one smart character? You are suggesting that I should just have one theme of characters and then stick to it for an entire cartoon series? Well you my friend are also not a writer nor are you able to write a simple review without personal vendetta towards who I cast. I could have picked my sister or a friend but instead I found a sailor moon wanna be who was the exact voice I was looking for.

The funny thing is allow your entire review insults my choice of a voice actress, you gave SOUND the highest possible score so she must not have even been that bad in your eyes.

So in the end what this entire response comes down to is this, you are a faggot and I hope you die you unclassy son of a cunt. Merry Christmas.

[Burnt Face Man 7]

It was ok...

Yeah... In England, it's spelled "realise," but if you look in any American dictionary, it's "realize..." Americans spell things a but differently.

Anyway... As violent as David Firth's cartoons are, I think it's strange that Burnt Face Man's cartoons don't seem to have any violence in them --and superheroes are usually all about fighting... I was kind of hoping that Burnt Face Man would fight "Have A Nice Day Man," and "Detergent Dan..." Maybe "Rockhead Rumple..." If he just fought a couple of those guys from time to time, I think the series would improve a bit. Instead, they usually exchange a few insults and make BFM look gay and stupid. There isn't really anything wrong with that, but I think he should bump off a couple of those minor villains...

Doki responds:

"Americans spell things a but differently"

hahahah. I hope that's a joke.

If Burnt Face Man were to attack any of his foes then he'd be a slightly better hero than he is. He's a coward, he wouldn't know what to do. The point of this cartoon is not to animate a load of violence. If it was then you'd know about it.

[Don't do this]

Great minds think a like...

I made a cartoon similar to this... Check out my cartoon called "A New Age."

FireHound responds:

nice ones :)
