wizardman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[George W. Bush Wazzup]

no, not true

Since the wassap parody was done to death, they have to be really good for me to enjoy them, and this flash didn't hit the mark. There as very litle animation, and basically just using pictures made the flash way less enjoyable. Th emouth movements were okay, and of course the sounds is the same as always in these flashes. The ending was alright though. Haveing actual drawings would've made this flash way better.

[Spider-man vs. Wolverine]

ugh

What was that? I mean, all it was were a bunch of graphics moving around (with their backgrounds still attached ot the characters), spider-man's head apparently falls off at some point, and the flash is over? I honestly don't really get what was going on. The sound was the onyl thing decent about this flash, primarily since there wasn't really anythign else decent anyway.

[Elian's Hero]

no

Honestly, I really can't find any merit in this flash, it just doesn't work on any level. There aren't really any grpahics, it's just the one picture. The sound isn't all that good, there's little animation, and I kinda didn't see the point of this. The only good spot I can give you if that those eyeballs were drawn okay and the blood flowed well enough.

[At&t, future products]

not really anything

First and foremost, the voice was great, it actualyl sounded professional to an extent, which isnt' seen often. Problem is that that is basically all the flash had going to it. It's just a few images moving around to the sound, no real graphics or animation. The idea was good, but had you drawn the images or added in something extra, the flash would have been so much better.

Daemond responds:

Hey thanks for the write up... This animation is 7 years old! Made it when I was 15. Now at 22 I'm actually studying 3D animation right now, maybe I should take some of my new skills and make some new kick ass flash.. .thanks for the inspiration

[The Mourner 2]

Interesting

The way you're doing this series is quite weird, but at the same time very effective. The graphics, again, were great and possibly comparable to today's flashes. the animation was really just tweening, and what there was in terms of moving and substance was very little, but otherwise the flash was great. Great mood, sound, plot, it's just weird having a white background half the time.

[3D, you must see!]

Cool

Well, the first thing I thought when I saw this was "wow, this is a pretty good preloader." Alas, that was the actual flash, which was little more than an animation test really. That being said, it was cool to watch, as the DNA was well drawn and it was animated quite nicely. Stil, the lack of sound hurt thisflash quite a bit, among other things. You at least know how to make good preloaders though.

[-=Pen and Paper=-]

Interesting

To me, the flash was a litle boring, but it was a decent one anyway. The concept was interesting, and the animation, although a bit slow, was relatively good. The graphics were pretty simple, but they worked for the falsh. Adding in the background noise helped out this flash a lot as well. To improve, I would've have made the transformation into the 4 pens a little smoother, as the shape tweening didn't look right to me. Also, I'm not sure of the significance of the paper's fold on the corner.

Grumbles responds:

I know, I really need a good short story to animate. But I have a really short attention span. The fold thing was just to give a little depth. TY

[Poo Poo Peter]

Both good and bad

First and foremost, the graphics were actually very good given when this was created. Though the animation was choppy, that wasn't too bad either. My main problem was elsewhere. You kinda had a plot going, but the sound could have been much improved. Plus, the actual part with the poop was just rather boring, you didn't add in anything in the flash to bring the viewer in. Could've been better, could've been worse.

[Mohinder]

I don't get it

Which is still fine, because it's still an enjoyable flash. It was kinda random, and it almost had a Jerry Jackson quality to it only animated well. Mohinder was quite funny, and although very animated seemed stiff at the same time. Then again it seemed like part of the flash was animated and part wasn't, but no big deal that would be my main criticism. Still, it's Mohinder trying to find the X-Men, which is humorous in itself, basicaly askign the viewer for help. you admit it was wasteful, but it was enjoyable enough to keep me entertained while waiting for Blockhead 9. Not much I can say about it since I haven't watched Heroes. Hopefully you'll respond to this review, but you're pretty good about it, so I'm not worried.
