j00bie's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[swordsman]

Decent stick movie.

The missing sounds, and the absence of a preloader... makes it bad from the start.
The stick fight was decent, there was a decent amount of work that must have gone into it.
It wasn't overly long given the filesize.
Not a bad fight though, but the absense of sound makes this a poorer entry.

[dependency]

Clever.

This here, is an excellent flash!
Even for a style I dont particularly like.
Excellent graphics, very dark and moody with lots of good effects, and the music fitted in nicely with it.
Good use of a scene selection option. Tells a story too, which always helps.
Worthy of the high score, very good but not one of my favourites.
Still, Very well done!

[UF-OH SHIT]

Love it!

One of the best toons on NG!
It even looks like it should be a proper cartoon, it was very Ren and Stimpyish.
Cool storyline, crazy music and superb graphics.
Totally mental and utterly fantastic.
You might want to add a replay button, but it's little nit-picks like that which was the only flaw.

[Driving in my Car]

Not spectacular.

This is the first time I've seen this kind of madness used on NG.
There's a pretty good song, and a nice idea for a movie.
The problem is, I got bored of it quickly, as for the most part you were repeating the same two animations over and over again.
Besides that, it was pretty annoying, though a noticable good effort, I just feel it could have used some more variety in it.

[Wheels of fire]

Short.

This movie is much too short for my liking.
It's just two bails, and they were very similar.
It's not like they were bad, it's just that there wasn't enough of them.
It's kind of hard to comment much more, seeing as the flash was almost empty... so so is this review.

[Bear With Searing GasPain]

Great!

That bear IS in pain, heh.
This requires a certain sense of humour, definitely. Some people who are 'sensitive' may not like this that much.
I liked it, though it could have been better if the bear had actually answered the question correctly at the end.
This still remains a good short.

[John's Arm 2]

Not as good as #1.

Though not as good as the original, this is still some damn funny stuff, but for my money the original John's Arm was better than this one.
Best element of this was the whack-a-mole sequence, easily.
Another well thought out comical cartoon, with various different escapades to enjoy.
Cool preloader as well, it should have been playable for added fun!

[John's Arm]

Hilarious!

Amazing!
There are far, far too many funny spots to mention, I loved it so much! there's so many I've forgotten my favourite which I was going to use as the title to this.
Anyway, this is a fantastic start to the series, a crazy concept for a superhero, comical from start to finish.
Cartoons don't come much better than this.

[How To Shave]

Good stuff.

I love the old school graphics, though I think it would have been better in black and white...added effect.
I know that's been said already, but I just wanted to second that.
The comic violence wouldn't have looked as good if that happened though.
It's one of the better short cartoons out there...
It tells a tale in a relatively funny manner.

[wet floor]

Poor.

This is a very poor stick animation, you even admitted it yourself.
It was your first animation, and it sucks! That's not uncommon though.
It's a short, dull, pointless stick animation, nothing more.
The idea isn't terrible (though unoriginal), it just needs to be longer, and have some better animation.

Needs some humour and violence as well. either/or.
Both would be better though.
