wizardman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Rain Down]

This was a quite nice flash. I'm one of the only people that doesn't like Radiohead, so the music was a bit grating. The graphics were very good though, and while there wasn't much animation, what you did do was impressive. I wasn't really sure what it was trying to say though, as it was very slow-moving.

[Delta Ebonics]

This is one of those flashes that doesn't stand the test of time. In 2013, it's just a slew of pictures and words moving around, but back then this was great. The voice over was awesome, and the pictures did go well with it. The words also moved around enough to make it funny. I could see myself having loved this back in 2000 or 2001.

[Sci Fi Chick]

There was pretty much nothing to this flash. There were a few buttons to move the arms and legs, a kick button, and a laser button. The graphics were actually quite poor, as the person barely looked sci-fi or like a chick at all. The animation on the kick and laser was decent, but that's all this flash had going for it.

[When God was young.......]

I watched this several times, and I'm still not entirely sure what I just saw. A caveman fried with a magnifying glass, and a dinosaur stomped on. It was crude, it was dumb, and despite that, I actually liked it. It's so off-the-wall that it gave me a good laugh, especially with how fact the dinosaur's death was compared to the caveman.

[The Scoop (with Sloth)]

Gotta love the sloth series, which is a bit primitive, but was awesome for 2000. I like how I could tell it was Carlton pretty much immediately before the voice and reading the introduction. The graphics were very good, and Sloth was rather humorous. The audio may not have been original, but it was used perfectly, and it was overall enjoyable to watch.

[Sid's Loop Box]

I was looking forward to this after reading the introduction, but unfortunately, none of the buttons work. All it is is a slew of buttons that are supposed to play song loops, but none of them do. Adding sound to buttons isn't exactly difficult, and to make it worse there were quite a few misspellings as well.

[Britneys Proposal]

This flash was actually a lot funnier in hindsight. At the time this just seemed like a silly parody, but after everything with Britney in the 2000s, suddenly this is funny. The voices were amusing, as was the 69 logo, but aside from that there was nothing else to the flash. The mouths could have at least moved a bit more to go along with it.

[Jackson B and the scooter]

This was... in a word, weird. It wasn't bad though. The humming noise and helmet to make it look and sound like a vibrator had to have been intentional, and the other effects added in gave it a dirty undertone, which made it funny since the flash itself was entirely fine, just a guy riding his scooter. It was a slow-moving flash otherwise, in fact the joke easily could have been condensed.

[SuperNova HeadTrip]

This was a really nice, trippy flash. The raindrop effects were great, as well as the kaleidoscope effect. Thing is, right when I was really enjoying the flash, that's where it ended. Had some more been tagged on the end this could have been a really great flash. It was still enjoyable for what it was, I just would have liked to see more.

[Cooking Napalm with Nick]

This was good for a quick laugh, though not much else. The graphics were solid, as was the flame animation, and the story wasn't half bad. I would have much preferred to see voice acting, but at least I could read the text as my own pace. Adding the two options made for a better flash overall as well, even if both predictably ended about the same way.
