Frostbreath's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Metroid Evolution II]

Pretty good.

Thought i'd check back to this movie, since i was the very protecter of it. I usually review those i save :)

Now, it started very promising, with a great title screen. Backgrounds was pretty bad, if not to say horrible, though everything else in it was just great. And this movie was just to short to bee needing a scene select. The movie itself did also start very promising, with a nice choice of background and a realistic flying effect. But then, it went kind of downhill. Average movement, and boring text at the control panel. And when it got to the fighting scene, my expectations was way to high. This lasted a very short amount of time, and had no drama whatsoever. I don't exactly remember if you had any music there, but i remember that there was something that just sounded horrible. And, with a quick ending, flying away. And an epilouge.

It is better than the average movies i see daily in the UJ, but still not anything amazing. You have some potential, though. Oh, and this was by no means a horrible movie. It just didn't reach all the way.

At least this guy's review has few good ideas. As compared to the last three users who probably don't know the difference between a well animated movie and the space between their ass cheeks. At least this guy had some coonstructive critism which I will use to improve this movie.

[Pencilmation #2]

Entertaining.

An idea that belongs to you only. Sure, it was simple stick figures you drew, but put high score on graphics beacuse everything else had great quality: the pens, the paper and the coffee cup.

And you have to feel a little sorry for that fellow. Though how he managed to pull that pencil through the paper, only you know the answer of. Or maybe not. What do i know, i'm just the reviewer. Now, this reminds me of old tales, where the underdog finds it's strong opponents only weakness (Water, in this case) and doesn't hesitate to use it. And, it was on the last piece of paper, too. Oh, and was the main character a girl? Beacuse he/she insisted in having a princess crown.

And another thing, it didn't seem as there was anyone drawing, more like the pencil lived it's own life. beacuse, i wouldn't be able to draw very well, if i held my pencil like that. I'd like it if that was the case, beacuse then it would give this animation more charm :)

Fantastic work!

[LL - Save Tonight]

Pure awesomeness.

I just felt this urge to watch it again. And again. And again. And now i'm bored of it :P

However, i know it's still as good as the first time i saw it. And i don't really want to comparish you guys between each other, but i must say that Commy made a lot less than all you others. DiaLock, Trashlock and Warlock gets my fauvorite pick. As for you, Dia, your fbf skills are something real spectacular, and the same goes with the details of all the locks and the backgrounds. And having that shade of blue after the computer game made it look sweet.

Warlock, your part really touched one, and you felt strong, just to be alive. Real emotional clips, that also was extremely detailed, and well animated. Trashlock, your part was mostly gore, but even so, it was well made, though not quite as detailed or realistic. A bit on the lazy side, for example when you murdered a lock with your trident. You only pounded him, rather than impaled him that would've been more suitable.

You all made your part extremely well, no glitches or anything particular that i can point out as a mistake. And i must applaude that merry fellow who made that prelaoder. Simply awesome :)

[The10000 Frames of Art p1]

Fantastic

Oh, yes, this is good. Just take a giant cube, and add some details. Then some more. And more. And more. And when you can't add anything, you add some more. Personally i think it looks like something by Chris Foss. The finishing colours made it look just plain awesome.

Nice music, made the movie even nicer to watch. Still, only a white background, but i suppose that was the main idea. Though the hole erasing sequence was a bit unecessary. Id much rather end with a frame where the artwork was finished, and then add some facts about this movie.

Still, impresses most people, including me :)

Ohls responds:

Whos Chris Foss?

I love the box idea too =) ive made one at 1600x1200 but it wasnt animated, it was HUGE though =)

And with the white backround, Quite honestly I suck at backrounds so... Im working on it right now though =) thinking of buying the bg guide from cartoon smart =)

[Birdie Wild Submission]

Hey!

This is something new! I didn't get why it was so many linew in the beginning, but later on i noticed how much cooler it got. I take it was supposed to be some sort of facility, with three main structures. And a nice music which tells you that this is supposed to be good :)

You should've gotten rid of the lines after you filled it with colour, though. Still, Very good!

~ Frost

Ohls responds:

yeah I shouldnt have done those Color fill lines in the end, I was rushed though since I had to be done within 40 min hehe =)

It was submitted to the birdie wild compo =) you know, Birde as in the demo lan =) They didnt use it though =/

[LL - ML's Fine Bacon!]

Keke :)

i'm afraid there was one big miss that i sensed throughout the entire flash. It was the lack of music. However, it was in the loglocks childhood scene that the lack of music made it even more hilarious.

hilarious, yes. what can i say? just amazing quality of humour in this one! especially the warnings in the end. i'd watch this flash five times just to view that particular scene. and that my friend, is impressive.

great work!

MasterLock responds:

Thank you for the very swell review. I was looking for music, but I gave up :\

[Captain Capitalism]

Ah, omg, Ah.

Whatever that means. Ignore that if you will, beacuse i have no real explanation for it.

Oh, do i love it when a big muscle guy tries to explain something with a cheerful tone. And i couldn't have explained it better. ''Oh, well, you can't say ******, ****, *******, and god ****''. Freaking, hilarious. Though when the vice president started crying, it was a bit too much. Sure it wouldn't been fun at all if he just would've sodded a bit, but now we have this mixed emotion thingie in our minds. I don't know which one that's worse.

Great, comicly animated characters. Just like the cartoons i used to watch when i was seven, when there still was some well animated shows on the air. All the children was chaped so ridicolously, that i actually laughed. And the fact that they knew som much about politics stunned me. Oh, and it was great detailed when you saw the computer in the vice president's torso. Nice work on the enviroment, too.

Whoever did those voice, i'm sure you paid him well, beacuse that's a fellow i'd want on my crew if i ever decided to direct a cartoon. He never once stumbled upon his words (though i'm pretty sure he did it at least once when recording, but that just shows that he isn't willing to give up), and if he just came up with those lines with no script, i applaud him. Beacuse it sounded a bit thought-up-in-this-moment-ish.

A-mazing. I envy the guy who employs you.

[Gary fer Gubnor #2]

Heh

Great poltitcal parody there. Personnaly, i'd vote for Arnold. Yeah, i know, that one sucked :)

You've done a fantasitc job animating and lip-syncing. I'm impressed. There wasn't many enviroments, and i'm no big fan of having pictures in your flash, but that's just me.

Good work.

[Yet Another Day]

Great!

An anime style like this can't get anything than a reward. Better yet, this is a music video, though i'm unsure if you had that in mind when you made this. And i'm amazed how these love stories are so well animated and very often get high up on the lists. I love 'em. I can't give you any advice, you seem to have it all clear. I did not give you ten beacuse, frankly, it lacked voices. And i'm fan of violent movies, but that didn't affect the score even the slightliest bit.

Great work!

~ Frost

[Little Less Conversation]

Very good!

Even though the big names didn't quite live up to my expectations, i'm very pleased with the result. Dim's part in this was very effectful, so that is my fauvorite.

Nice song to choose with a collab, and the second one i'ves een with such big artists, with One Love being the first. This isn't the best collab i've seen, but still so much more awesome than the average movie that comes through the judgement flow. Cool.
