Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Upheaval..Ludwig/Path 1+2]

Good effort, okay outcome...

That was okay... but I didn't think it was that great. You do a good job of animating the sprites in a very Solem-esque manner, and the ripped sound is okay as well. I just thought the plot was a bit too wierd and incomprehensible to be very interesting, even with two endings. WTF is with that fat Earl guy, for one thing? Mystery men? Random heaven and F-Zero appearances? Knuckles working for Ludwig Van Koopa? Huh? I just thought it was more strange than funny. This is an okay Sonic & Mario movie, but I think the theme's a bit worn out by now, don't you?

[Mr.T vs Bin Laden]

I pity the fool who blow up the WTC!

That was pretty decent! It would have been pretty nice with sound intead of bubbles, and the graphics were just mostly bland picture tweening... but this is still pretty funny as it is. And I gotta admit, I'm a bit of a sucker for Mr. T movies. The dialouge was quite funny, especially the spat between Powell and Bush, and of course, Mr. T's dialouge all around. Extra points for the transformers bit too - that was random... Good job creating a rather compelling anti-OBL movie! Keep up the good work!

[Taliban Twister]

"Twisted" humor!

Funny, short, and sweet! I thought this was a really creative little movie, putting a hilarious anti-Taliban twist on an otherwise (mostly) innocuous game. The AK-47 bit was funny, but the praise-Allah-by-blowing-yourse lf-up really cracked me up.
.
I only wish this was kinda longer; this doesn't seem right in the top-10 being so short as it is. And I suppose it should be said again that NO, this is not a collective jab at all of the Muslim faith - just the ego-headed Taliban. It's like taking potshots at the KKK. They say they represent Christianity, but the Klan is nothing more than a bunch of cruel bastards who pervert the teachings of Christ. Just thought I'd throw out that analogy to tame the super-zealot-patriots that have been on NG the last few days.

[BEEBO Part 1]

Beebo's up in smoke!

Haa! I shouldn't have laughed so hard at that movie, but I did. I gotta admit, for a movie about a smoking cat, even one with facial hair, this is pretty damn funny. I especially liked his total white-trash owner, and the Pope spoofing. Great stuff. Graphics aren't up to snuff, but the dialouge and totally random humor more than made up for it. Nice work!

[The Killer Doody!]

Craptastic.

Umm... that was it? A hand squishing rubber doody? O... kay, that was absolutely nothing.

[Psilocybine]

More!

That was kinda funny... but a bit too short and underdeveloped. I liked that crazy Mario laugh and the koopa transformation, but it didn't really go anywhere... good job otherwise! You gotta love those crazy mushrooms.

[How To Cook A Duck?]

Heh... that duck's stoned.

Hey, that was a damn good first movie! I gotta admit, it cracked me up, because I really wasn't expecting to "cook" a duck that way. I liked the way the little guy looked after taking a few tokes. Funny little storyline. Even the graphics and sound are pretty well done. I applaud you as a fellow first-movie maker.
.
This is based on a true story? Heh... you gotta tell us what happened with the duck that you stoned... that sounds funny. Good luck with your future submissions!

[Crazy Ed's Fun Village]

You're right...

I WOULD have liked this better with the SOC characters... still, as it is, it's pretty damn funny. As always, you crack me up with the unexpected, pointless, hilarious violence. Extra style points for being a "dead man's crotch." Good stuff!

[The Crack Addict #1]

Meh...

I didn't really like it that much. It's good and funny, don't get me wrong... but it just doesn't compare with the natural comedic value of SOC. It's almost like this one tries too hard... or copies the SOC style in a poor manner. My advice: don't make a series of this. It just doesn't seem as funny.
