Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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!

[We Are Robots - Robokopf]

Still funny stuff

Perhaps not as funny as angrybot or sadbot, but this is still pretty funny. I like the narcisisstic, gay, starving french artist angle - and you play it out very well. The part with him yelling at the canvas is pure genius. Good work, as always.

[We Are Robots - Sad Robot]

More hiarious bot-work.

Funnier than Angry Robot! You do such a good job of personifying the emotions these robots represent. I have to admit, I started laughing pretty hard when the bot started crying under his death. Killer comedy, man. Time to watch the third one!
