Compdude's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bad Inventions #2]

Just average work.

Yes, it's an almost exact replica of the first scene in Rob DenBleyker's "Moronic Inventions Part 1" movie, but the style of presenting it is different, so I'd call it fair game.
.
The movie itself is just okay; the Khatam-style stick animation is a nice touch, and I like the Looney Tunes sound effects, but it takes too long to get to the point, and it's not all that funny. The infinite loop at the end is a bit annoying as well. Just decent work.

[Zelda- The Little Things]

Nothing new.

It's just mediocre at best. The sound is nice, but the humor is tired and slow, plus the file size is unecessarily big. It's been done before - I seem to recall some Zelda-banging movies in the VG section, and this does little to pique my interest.

[Cocket the Fish]

Marvelous!

That was wonderful! If you want to become a professional animator, you're certainly on the right track :) I loved the professional cartoony feel of the movie, complete with the standard sound effects we've all come to love, atmospheric, high quality sound, and superb animation. The Benny Hill theme really took the cake though. Good story as well - the diarrhea part had me rolling. The voices, though crystal clear, are just fair - the shark and Cocket sound somewhat bland, but I loved the voice of the two tiny fish. This has great potential for a series. Keep at your goal of becoming an animator - you deserve it.

[NG is Under Attack! Pt.1]

Very clever work.

Coolness! The best NG Tribute I've seen, next to Keeblur, of course :) Clever references to a myriad of old and new portal movies, as well as an interesting portal fact! I would recommend more of that in your future episodes. Interesting story - I particularly like how you fleshed out the portal in city terms. And quite lengthy! Nice work. However, it runs a bit slow, and more sound would be preferred over text bubbles. And put in some more portal chars, like Keeblur, Tako, Eskimo Bob, Soft Outer Crust, and whatnot. But it definetly makes you crave part two. Can't wait!

[Austin Powerpuff]

Groovy baby.

I recently became a big fan of the PPG, and I must admit this is quite inventive, witty, and twisted. Lots of good parody jokes between the two shows, the remix is interesting, and the PPG voices sound very similar - especially Blossom. But man - they're only six! Why must everyone defile such an innocous show?! Anyway, jokes a plenty and lots of wit, but the animation is a bit stale and the pacing's a bit off. But overall, this is very funny stuff.

[Care Bears Messed up]

There goes my childhood.

Very funny childhood-memory-bashing fun. Great bastardization of the care bears, and a good fit with the music. Decent art and animation, though the frame-by-frame animation was a bit choppy. I'd also say that you really needed a preloader and replay button, and you might work on compressing the sound a bit more.

[DBZ - Gohan Kills Cell]

Just a bunch of traced pictures.

Well, you did a good job of tracing all those famous Gohan pictures off the net - but if I wanted to see that, I'd go look at 'em, right? Sorry, it's just that this feels like a bunch of traced pictures put together to music. Not that I could do much better, but it does detract from the effect.
