Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[why a squirrel shouldn't]

Just plain nuts

Funny stuff. I liked the animation and the sound, and the reasons were pretty funny, too. The file is way too large though - try compressing the sound or something.
.
On a side note, my condolences on your loss. How did your friend die? Hopefully this cartoon can help you find peace.

DrMauss responds:

thank you for your sympathies. As far as what happened to my friend, we still don't know. she turned off like a light switch, was on life support for almost a week in hopes that brain acivitity would restore itself. it never did. her husband had to make the decision to pull the plug. such is life.

[Squigo 2]

Bad hair day

Very funny, and YES, it's NOT predictable like the last one. Like the home-made graphics and simple sound effects, and the jokes was pretty funny. Keep it up.

[Janenba is born! Ep-2]

Sweet!!

More bitchin' DBZ Janemba fighting, and the amazing thing is - it's even BETTER than the first! The use of 3D effects, and all those Japanese theme songs, plus those SFX's make it all so very, very sweet. I like that you got rid of most of that annoying "button-click" for dialouge too. And Trunks is there! Sweet!
.
It's almost TOO long, though. My only major beef is your dialouge is really cheesy. The spelling's really bad too; I'm kind of a grammar freak. The backgrounds sometimes look a little wierd too, like some edges not meeting up. But besides that, this is sweet, sweet stuff. Keep it up!

[dbz interview]

Crummy

I thought it was pretty dumb. The sound was really hard to hear, and the graphics were just okay. It's a good idea, but it just goes too fast and too humorless to be any real fun.

[Darth Vulgar]

Great SW parody!

Haa haa haa... that was pretty funny. The dialouge was absoultely hilarious, and it just kept flowing out. I kinda wish it wasn't all bleeped, but I can understand if it was made for radio... Good job with your part on the animation too, Wade. It's a bunch of bitmap traces, but it still looks pretty good overall, and the frame rate's pretty sweet. Slick presenation.

SomeOldGuy99 responds:

They aren't all bitmap traces. Darth, R2D2, Princess, Lando, and Han Solo were all hand drawn in Flash. Yoda, Ben, Chewy, and Luke were traced Bitmaps.

[The Foxhole]

Pretty good

Hey, that's damn good for a first flash. It's a bit short, and the sound is kinda muffled, but the graphics are pretty good, and the ending was suprising. You could have a knack for making cool flash War movies. Keep it up.
