wizardman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chicken Suit for the Soul]

Cool

Again, a short and simple flash, but I liked it. (Not sure why I gave taht other flash a 5, should've been a 6, oh well). Still, this one was cool. I liked the simplicity of the black and white and all the stuff happening in the background. It felt like it was missing something though (besides color). I liked the animation and everything, even though I would've liked more to be going on. I was goign to say he had a weird way of holding the mouse, but he only had 4 fingers.

Sk8erGirl14 responds:

XD he is holding the mouse weird..if you look he's actually got a right hand on mouse, but it's on his left side...this is due to the fact that I added the keyboard rather late in the movie and needed to move his hand over to the left...not many people noticed or cared...

I wanted to keep the theme simple due to the song...cause it was simple...and I wanted to sorta emulate the "switch" commercials with lack of color...

thanks for the review...

[Modern Art]

Weird

This was an interesting flash, I have to say. It was kinda hard hitting the play button text, as not havign a button for that's always a pet peeve of mine. Again, the flash was very short, but ti didn't need to be long. The graphics and animation were very good, and the concept was just hilarious. Modern Art does often look like crappign on some sort of easel, so it worked well. Not sure why that was green though. Christmas theme maybe?

Sk8erGirl14 responds:

it was x-mas themed due to it's release around x-mas of that year...

yeah, I didn't know about the hit area part of the button back when I made this...I know how to do that now...

yeah, I feel modern art is just a joke...

[The_Spirit_of The Samurai]

Very short, yet very cool

I liked the way you did this flash. The lighting on the samurai was awesome, and the swordwork at the end was pretty cool, even if we couldn't necessarily see it. The flash was very short, of course, yet that doesn't necessarily take away from its quality. Of course I would've liked to see it longer. The flash in itself was very simple, which works for what it was.

Sk8erGirl14 responds:

...thanks, it was experimental...and my first flash really...improved much since then...

thanks for the review...

[GAY SHIT 8]

Ooh, we've got glovepops now

Yup, apparently the sun DOES have 2 layers, now I know. I like the change in the text. I'm definitely lookign forward to level 9, since there's definitely a good chance to throw something witty in that one. I was a little disappointed i this one only because it's startign to get repetitive. This flash series is still great to watch though.

TheSoulMan responds:

+1 overall score :P

Yes, the sun has two layers....but I can't see anything funny to say in level 9 =(

[GAY SHIT 7]

Yay, you listened to me

A little change of pace, and the flash became awesome again, yay. The black power idea was pretty good, and carried out very nicely. Not sure why this sunshine has a second ring though (maybe the other ones did and I never noticed). Still, the fistpops are getting old, so hopefully there's not many more of them. This one's probably my favorite one in the series so far, or at least tied with #1.

TheSoulMan responds:

I was inspired with the blackpops

[GAY SHIT 6]

Getting boring

My main wish is that there weren't so many fistpop levels all in a row, as that's the reason that this stuff starts to get boring. It's very hard to hate it though, even when I want to rate everything in the portal bad. Still, I really wish you wold just change one little thing. Or at least compress the audio a bit. What would be really cool is to put an Easter egg in one of these levels. That would be cool.

TheSoulMan responds:

Yeah, the easter egg idea is cool.

[GAY SHIT 5]

Not the same

I have the same problem with this as I did with the last one: it's too samey. You don't have to make any radical changed, and I don't want you to make any. Just change the background a little bit, of maybe the color of the sunshine rays, and it'll be a nice change of pace. Luckily this series is still humorous.

TheSoulMan responds:

I think about changes in future episodes, when the interesting levels arrive.

[GAY SHIT 4]

Funny, yet this one loses it's charm.

My main problem is this one felt really identical to the third one. Now, that's not your fault, as levels 3 and 4 look pretty much the same except for the spiked wrist. Still, the main focus of this flash remains intact, and nothing is really hurt by the similarities of the previous episodes. From the looks of other levels, these can only get better.

TheSoulMan responds:

Just because the previous suck :P

[GAY SHIT 3]

Yay, this one's the funniest yet

The concept remained pretty much the same, with the music and sunshine being exactly the same. On that note, I'd recommend that you compress your audio a bit. This should be in the 600kb range without any reduction in sound quality. For some reason, the fist pop is so much more hilarious than the previous two levels, and that made this flash enjoyable. I liked that you changed the buildings up too.

TheSoulMan responds:

NG Background ftw :P

[GAY SHIT 2]

I found one thing almost ironic

When I realized everything was pretty much the same as the first NG level with the exception of the horn symbol (AKA level 2 instead of the lollipop), I realized something. The music is the same, and it going "sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows" works perfectly for level one, but no so much here. It took a bit of the humor out of this one, even though it was cool.

TheSoulMan responds:

I had the idea looking for level 1, but if you check out the rest of Sunshine movies most of them have the same song.
