AloneInTheDark's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[-=MGS: Flash Edition=-]

lmao

Man, that was pretty fuckin good. Although ur artwork isnt all that, the humour and feel were 'legendaryfrog' quality (even though im not a very big fan of him). Especially the ending was brilliant. Lol i still laugh when i think about it. Bur like i said, take a little bit more time to draw the characters and make the backgrounds more detailled. Keep the rest as good as it is and maybe u will be the one animator to RULE THEM ALL in a couple of months. Take care

No, just no

I really didnt like this one. The banana man joke has been a 100 times before and the brabbling of Mahadma Ghandi simply wasnt funny (to me). On top of this, i found it too short and the beginning sequence was a total copy of Luis's 'Murray the monkey'. The subject u chose for this animation is a very hard one for a comedy type of project. Because Ghandi did many good things and was a very noble figure its hard to parody him. Neway, better luck with ur next projects.

very good work

This is very well done. U managed to create a depressing, sci-fi like, but still realistic flash. The idea was very original, or at least the way i interpreted it. A medical centre were human beings are researched and answers are searched for their actions/nature. The thing that could have used some improvement though was the artwork. Although i am a fan of the sketchy style, i found the drawings at some points a little bit too simplistic and undetailled. Also, I think it would have been better if u made some backgrounds too. Just some lines so the characters wouldnt just hover in space. But anyway, this is just the visual aspect of a movie. A flash consists of a 100 aspects and i found it to be very complete and well thought out in the other areas. Take care.

wow

Aery nice and professional. And indeed, i havent seen a flash people animation this good before. The music was awesome and the camera angles and story were well thought. What would have been really cool in this movie would be a 30's type of text in the movie that would reveal the thoughts and the voice of the character. But still it was very complete and i wish u best luck in the future with ur other projects.

[Freedom (clay)]

very cool

This was a pretty touching movie. I loved it. Although the story was a little bit disney-like, the characters, movements, camera angles and music came over as a complete thing. I never really listened to the Furtado song this way. Only, 2 bad it was so short. The ending came to abrubt and seemed rushed. I wanted to know/see so much more about the main character before he died, because now i couldnt really feel sorry for him. Another small thing were the fonts u used. I didnt really like them. Go to www.1001fonts.com and download a cool one for ur next movie. And maybe put them underneath the movie or something, it gives it more a professional feel. But overall very good movie.

dillema

And yet another flash by 2 of the the most popular flash artists on newgrounds.

If i would base my score on ur entire work and include things like originality and story talent, i would have given this a 3. But i decided to not be a jackass and review this movie like i never seen a flash from legendaryfrog before. As always, the humor, graphics & sound is great because its the same as in all your other movies. U invented this succesful formula, so hey lets be american and think: if it aint broke, dont fix it... What kinda saddens me is that the superflash brothers are copying your style lately. Such a damn pity, because their work WAS original and innovating. But meh, there are always other talented artists that do remain true to their own style. But back to the flash, yes it was nice and smooth and yes it was funny at times. Too bad ur talent stops at making simple parodies. But who am i to judge or convince you otherwise? The only thing i can do is do different, and so i will.

Bad idea

Making a parody of the coolest scene of one of the biggest cult movies of all time seems like a cool idea. But unfortunately i didnt find it impressing. The main reason for this is that the scene you chose is awesome in it's original state because of it's superb dialogue and nonsense humor. Trying to parody this is almost impossible because the original will still simply be funnier. U took out the best part of the scene (the awesome voice of samuel l jackson and john travolta) and put a clock voice over it. Its like replacing the engine of a ferrari with a nissan one.

[Frijolero(Beaner)]

not bad..

Pretty cool idea for a movie. Only it didnt really make me laugh or nething. Maybe it wasnt supposed to be funny. Or maybe i just cant relate to the racism between white and mexican people, being a european. I found the graphics a little bit simple and the song kinda got annoying after a while. So ur going to make a series outa this? Sounds better actually, because i think u can work the idea out better in a serie with dialogue than in a music video i think.

CheveLoco responds:

yeah a series including the characters...this was like my way of introducing them...

[Stitch]

well done

I liked the artwork on this one. The doll was really well designed. Pretty dark movie with only the gray tones and some red. It always gives a kind of horror effect to it. This thing reminded me a little bit like 'The Crow' and 'Edward Scissorhands'. Maybe u were inspired by these movies? Neway i still didnt quite get the moral of the movie. Was it supposed to have a deeper meaning? Or was it just a dark musicvideo... Keep up the good work

Dark-Boy responds:

Well i'm a giant Tim Burton Fan, and i've seen every "THe Crow" movie (even the cheep low bugit ones lol)The moral is a deeper menaing yes..but i hate telling people what it is because I like to leave it more open to interpitation..well al the same,thanks for watching :)

[The Bridge]

meh

Nice graphics, pointless and not funny, but smooth animation. And the simple music sounds terribly alot like the foamy series. Oh and you are Joe Outterside? Better use this new account after being kicked outa the time trial for stealing other people's work.

Blue-Flame responds:

Ok...what about the new account?
Sorry you didn't enjoy it.
The music *is* the music from foamy, but that wasn't intentional, it's free on www.flashkit.com..
