Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pico 2 Gameplay Demo]

As good as we could ever hope for

Brilliant. Astonishing. Incredible. A work of pure art that surpasses human exultation.
.
Nah. It's a piece of crap, but it's still funny. You get some points for that. Bring on the Atari graphics!

[Harry Potter/DBZ 2]

Kicks some balls.

You hate both Harry Potter and DBZ, do you? Kill Harry Potter, but DBZ? You bastard. Guess you deserve a ring around YOUR head for that. Or at least have your pulsating balls removed. ^_^
.
I liked the movie; it's better than the first. The voices and animation are better, and the different outcomes are funnier. Everyone sounds like a constipated monkey, though.
.
But why the fixation on pulsating balls? No more wrinkly penis jokes either. 8===>

ImageNation responds:

it was actually wrinkly penuts not penis and we just thought it would be kida funny to see the dragon balls guys obsessed with their nuts like if they had any kind of power. and we don't hate either we really just don't care about them:) any how thanks for the review.

[A Holiday Gift 4 U]

Needs more substance

Not exactly the kind of christmas present that I would want... I like the atmosphere you've created - the bitter contrast between "merry christmas" and the subject material. It does make for a dramatic effect.
.
But it doesn't make any sense. Without some sort of explanation of what's going on, it really is somewhat self defeating. It's like walking into the emotional climax of the movie and not knowing what the hell is going on. This movie should be prefaced by at least 30 seconds of material leading up to this point. Then this could be a truly chilling movie.

[Tetris!]

Hey! I like tetris!

Hey, shut up! I happen to like tetris, and I'm of the firm opinion that a little tetris (or a LOT if you prefer) never cause anyone any harm. That being said, this is certainly a surrealistic film. It kinda lacks any real direction, but it is kinda fun to watch.

[Old Portal Contest Entry]

Needs more

This certainly is bloody and violent to my tastes. Good animation on the sword and axe, especially. But it kinda lacks anything else. You should put some story and music around it. Then this would rule.

[The Perfect Tree]

Very well done!

Very cute, and well done. I liked the story, the music, the animation, and the facial expressions, especially. It was very well put together - it was almost like watching a classic Warner Brothers cartoon - only with sticks instead of talking ducks. I also liked how you were able to tell a story with absolutely no dialouge. Good job of syncing it to the music, too. Overall, a cute little tale. But I'm rambling.

[HEAT MAN Dr. Zaius!]

Cool.

Wierd stuff! But pretty good. Your timing is good - and you chose a song I like from the Simpsons. That has to count for something. The mega man graphics are pretty cool too. Keep it up.
.
Oh, and there IS a typo. At the end, you say, "based on AND episode of Simpsons." Just thought you'd like to know

[eskimo bob 30]

More good EB.

Good EB movie, like usual. The fish in a spaceship bit has been used a lot, but it seems to still work. Why is Santa a bunny anyways? I think that'd be kinda cool - like fusing Easter and Christmas into one giant, conclomerate, pagan, consumer holiday like we've always dreamed.
.
We'll call it Chreaster. Or Eastmas.
Mmm... Eastmas.

[When Lemon Trees Attack]

Pretty stupid.

That WAS pretty stupid. But it did make me laugh, so you must have done something right.

[We Are Robots -Tendertron]

That was great!

Haa haa! This and sadbot are the best. I just love the hippie/indian/treehugger/PETA/ chi freak personality you worked this character into. I like the part about misalinged auras, but of course, the angrybot cameo took the cake. Funny, funny stuff. Your dialouges are unbelievably well-scripted and paced. Keep up the good work man - I want to see more of this!
