AloneInTheDark's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[NG TimeTrial IX]

.....

a shameless bitey ripoff, a shameless arfenhouse tm3 trailer ripoff, a good looking but 5 second movie, a rockvideo from someone who is too lazy to draw arms and legs and an average piece of big lou himself. I feel like some of the people send in submissions to the trials just to get the awards without making anything original. Such a pity, because the egg easter time trail was brilliant though

[Mario's revenge part 3]

impressive

Not too shabby. As soon as the animation started and i heard the music of Kane I knew this was made by a fellow dutcher :) Good job, the music went well with the animation only i found the text balloons a little bit too annoyingly large and the fights were too much shape/motion tween. Maybe some frame by frame animation next time? But hey i cant flame a fellow dutch animator so good job man!

[EgoCity Chap I]

nice

Good job on ur movie. It was fresh and cool but i have to agree that the voices really suck. The story was kinda confusing to me but at least it had a story. And ofcourse the visuals were impressing like everybody else said.

But i have to correct u on ur author's comments. U dont publish flash movies here just let them be reviewed by other flash artists. They dont give u an objective opinion. Someone with no flash knowhow cares less about the technical aspect and judges ur flash on the entertainment value. That is something way more important than a comment like: Wow nice visuals, loved the blurs and 3d radar effects etc. Although i made flash movies i just wanted to point this out for u

[Just Another Psycho]

hmmpf

violence, videogames and teenagers, how original can u be? the story made no sense and because i dont like pointless violence there wasnt much of ur movie left to like. Yeah, yeah, the graphics were great, but so fuckin what. Thats nothing special nemore nowadays with so much visual talents on newgrounds. But the 14 yr olds will love this animation and thats 80% of newgrounds. (*sarcasm enabled*) Respect man, respect. (*sarcasm disabled*)

Evil-Dog responds:

Why do you blame me ?
I just make stuff I like and share it with NG. If you want good story telling and original stuff, make some dude.

hey not bad

It was too short though. I was expecting an interesting story that would follow after he got attacked by the computer, but nothing happened. The graphics and sound saved ur flash though and i hope u take more time in the future to make ur animations so that besides interesting on the visual & audio side they will be also interesting plotwise

Zwickel responds:

Well, this was just ana animation test... I AM thinking of maybe a second part for this, with a bit more plot.

A diamond on newgrounds

If i could rate this an 11, i would give it an 11. This is the best flash i have EVER seen. Ever.

Something like this u can only do once, Alanthebox. Raw emotions being hold together by a plot that doesnt seem like a plot when u watch it the first time, but forms into something that goes much deeper than u think when u watch it for the 2nd and 3d time. The drawings, the sound, the music at the end.... simply perfect. The end was kinda like the awesome movie 'Magnolia'. But i think this was even better. I dont think u can ever top this animation without doing the same thing over again. Or maybe u can, who knows. I really wouldnt know how though. U probably wont even read this but i just wanted to tell u that this is so much better than anything that is in the top 50. Things like 'The Matrix Has You' and 'The Perfect Murder' are simply turds of the week compared to this. Maybe nice to look at, but not really original or astounding. U will have my respect as an artist forever.

the creative mind of an artist can be very weird

Good job. Very original and the first flash i'v seen that actually was a little bit scary. The artwork and detailed surroundings felt like a Tim Burton creation. And that my friend is a very big compliment. This was obviously not made in a happy mood and i love flashes that arent made in a happy mood. They are always more original and mature because we tend to hide those feelings a little bit and thus are a little bit unknown to us. Keep up the good work i'd say and i definately keep my eye on you. My red eye, torn from my skull that already has seen so much evil. Lol
