Ethaneth's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[FAUX - trailer]

Ironic

The pure ideal on the words "Motion Comic" makes me confused, or laugh, mostly laugh.

The reason I say this, is because most artists that make a comic do so to bask in the glory of the artform that is non-moving entertainment. I draw comics for a living, and hope soon I can be published, I want the world to know my work, as does everyone else, where am I going with this? I would only want my idea to be in comic form, not something on the verge of being a movie.

What you have there, is a semi-animation, not a motion comic. With that all said and done, lets look at this trailer for what it is NOW, not what it is to be.

The art was great, the animation was piss poor.
The music was great, but half way through it seemed repetitive, had to turn the headphones down to spare my ears.
Since it was pictures from a comic (I am guessing, of course) that slightly move, with some song in the background, I had no idea what was going on, who the characters were, or WHY they were crying in the first place.

Overall, it ended up confusing. But the idea of "Motion Comic" made me laugh, I think the whole semi-animation thing is a great idea, and the art is quite nice. But as far as a trailer, I was left in blanks.

[The Choice]

Eh...

Considering 48 hours, this was pretty good.
Although I suppose I have to do a PROS AND CONS sort of deal right? *sigh*
PROS:
-When I got told the script, and how it went in chat one day I really loved it.
-Bringing back such an old joke to make it feel modern and appeal to others was cool!
-The music was very well done and it felt easy flowing.

Alright, now for the three cons that really ticked me off here.
-I felt the voices were too rushed, and weren't very clear. Making it seem hard to watch.
-The character design was a bit off and felt like you didn't care.
-The mood wasn't set right, it didn't set a tone at all for me. Just felt like two dudes talking, which isn't funny, even with the potential it had.

To be honest, I loved the idea. But it all felt very rushed, and didn't feel right at all. The tone wasn't set so it felt like JOKEJOKEJOKEJOKEJOKE, which may work on Family Guy, but not quite here.

I liked the placement, loved the music.

That's why I'm going this a 4/10, and a 2/5.

Keep at it ;3

[qwertymovie]

Eh...

I understand it's supposed to be a parody but seriously...

Put more effort into lipsync and animation, it may not be much to improve on for the standard. But that just means you did a far more terrible job.

4/10
2/5

No...Just no.

[Minecraft Pals]

That was pretty amazing

That reminded me so much of the show Code Monkeys, which I loved. And I love this as well <3

Anyways, the jokes were very fluid in it's own way. Constant jokes made it amazingly easy to sit through, the concept was great and simple. The ending tied it together perfectly.

You sir have outdone yourself once again, I tip my hat to you.
10/10
5/5
Keep a- Screw that catchphrase you already know what the hell you're doing.

[Halo Reach: Armor Locked]

Very funny

I actually got the humor in this, unlike some people fakecough lpfann2 fakecough.
I found it amazingly funny that he just went "offline", shows that if they armor lock they might as well be there forever doing shit all.

I think everything was well written/well created.
8/10
4/5
keep at it ;3

DoomzDayChikn responds:

thank you for peering through the veil of the concept of a "greater meaning" for the film, which very few people have done so far.

[Pleasure Island 3]

I loved what you are doing here...

I see that you're taking old characters from your old animations, then incorporating them into pleasure island. Along with ties from whence they came. Very clever move.

The voice acting was great, the animation was amazing, and of course the jokes were fluid and perverted.

I can't wait to see Fernando's revenge.
10/10
5/5
Keep at it ;3

[Contra Rampage]

Very well done

I loved this as much as I loved Contra. (Which I play 2 hours AT LEAST everyday XD)

The violence that you would expect from Contra was there, and then some.
The gory jokes were very well done.

I suggest a sequel!

Made my week, I love you forever. <3

Keep at it. ;3

kalabor106 responds:

YEAH! Of course there will be a sequel. Just right now been working on 3 other cartoons. So it'll be rearing its ugly face in the near future. Thanks

[Madness...1]

Good try Markos123

The music could have been a bit better choice wise, also the framerate like a few other people have said below.

Great deaths, I would have made the text slower at the end though. It went by very fast, and I barely read it (But I did, it was cute and hilarious)

I'll have to say refine it more, very good though.

7/10
4/5

Markos123 responds:

thanks!!! I'll take that in count :D

butt for Madness...3 Madness 2 and 1 are slow because im training :)

[OMG! A Wikileak]

Loved it

Modeled from south park very well, came out great.
Very well written and captured the essence of south park exactly, the animations were great as well.

The reactions were so funny.
I hope to see more from you ;3
9/10
4/5

[Dot Dot Dot - Animated]

Very well made.

I think he deserved it, and if he is pissed...Well he should be. It isn't everyday that someone makes a flash about their mistakes. But it was again very well created.

Loved it.
8/10
4/5
Keep at it ;D
