Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Drive Sober]

Doe, a deer...

Well done-3D animation, with an important message and subdued tone. Nice serious piece!

[Assmasters LIVE consert!]

Lost steam halfway through.

Some good animation bits, but the movie lost intensity and variety about halfway in. That song is really overused, and a movie with it lags badly unless the action pace is very fast.

[Cartman teaches version 2]

I love cheesy poofs, you love cheesy poofs...

Authentic South-Park style animation, and a good humor script. That's also a noble attempt at the Cartman voice, but it JUST doesn't quite sound like it. Overall, worth a watch.

[Newgrounds Survivor ep4]

Dope Fiend!

Not too bad, but there's nothing really interesting that stands out among this episode.

[John's Arm 2]

Two thumbs up for John's Arm!

Fantastic work. I love your comedy style - it's consistently funny and fresh. Great animation, good voicework, and laughter all around. What's not to love?

[.:The Dream:.]

Neat artistry.

Neat artistry and effects, but it feels very short and lacks purpose. I would very much like to see more of this.

[Cube 2 : Hypercube]

There's gonna be a Cube 2?!

I'm about ready to poop my pants. I absolutely loved the first Cube movie - it had great suspense/horror value and kept me enthralled all the way through. To hear of a sequel is... very exciting.
.
The movie animation is excellent, although I found the window size odd for the animation presented. Nonetheless, very slick and gory work, and I eagerly await the sequel's release.

[Negro On A Canoe]

Funny monologue.

Bizaare but amusing dialouge, even if it skirts the nerve of racism. Made me smile.

[mr rogers wake&bake]

Warning: Long Rant ahead.

The amount of attention this humble flash has recieved since its front page posting is astonishing. I underestimated the effect that Fred Rogers' death had on people.
.
Suprisingly, I've noticed that the score for this flash has gone significantly DOWN since its posting to the front page. Most movies in its place experience a significant raise in score.
.
The problem is, most of the casual NG portalgoers assume this was made AFTER Mr. Roger's death, when the post date clearly indicates this was submitted over a year and a half ago. I see no malign intent to demean his passing, except maybe by the cheeky webmaster who put it up front.
.
All things considered, I see no reason to get horribly upset over this. I watched Mr. Rogers when I was young, and I deeply admire his work to society. I will truly miss him.
.
But I see this as nothing more than some harmless ribbing of an American Icon. The graphics leave something to be desired, but it's goofy and unexpected. And frankly, I wouldn't care when the movie was made.
.
We don't bat an eye over excessive death or celebrity bashing in other formats. Why should there be such a furor over this? Just enjoy the flash for what it's worth. I'm sure Fred Rogers would have.

[Warp To World 6-9]

Time to clean the pipes.

I must admit, I thought that freestyle rap song was great. It's nice to see it put to Flash, but you could have been more dynamic with the animation.
