The-Vest's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Strategy Guide Ep. 2]

Awesome

That was great. (Except for the bizzare 80's style theme music) But I digress. G&G WAS the toughest game on NES, agreed. I'm going to have to go back and watch the rest of these now.
Kudos.

Needle responds:

Really? you think Rage sounds like an 80's band? That's the first I've heard anyone say that, but I guess I could see it. The song, as far as I know, was recorded in 1999 :) Thanks for watching!

[Bonus Stage #3: Character]

Good. But...

I'll admit, this is really funny and well animated, and extra points for the mention of Operation: Wolf, but gotta dock ya points for the blatent rip-offishness from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
The hat guy sounds like Shake, and you even have Dr. Wierd and Steve at the beginning.
Good flash anyway tho.

[Bite Me: Episode 1]

Good

Good. I liked the animation, and the slo-mo cycling of the gun's action, but I do have a critisism-
Everybody and their dog seems to keep an IMI Desert Eagle on them in movies nowadays. You'd think that they were handed out in delivery rooms. Disregarding their price tag of almost 2 grand, they weigh as much as a small car, and are about the most impractical firearm on the market. I'd like to see more original guns like CZs and Makarovs in films.
Just a pet peeve, I'm sorry. Good flash.

Jericho941 responds:

Actually, the thought did cross my mind, I was originally going to arm her with an IMI Jericho 941, but decided that I wanted something with a lower capacity, then I thought AutoMag, then I settled on the desert Eagle, cause my friend and I are both good at drawing them, thanks for the input, and not to worry, that was her last clip, and you're sure to see some USP and Sig action in the near future.

[Santa Takes A Wrong Turn]

It has character

It was good. The animation and sound were average for a stick-based flash, but I really liked the speech bubbles in picture form. I have no idea why.
Kudos.

[A Kitty's Dream]

Pretty good

A nice change from the usual stick man fights and final-fantasy sprite text adventures that plague newgrounds.
Short and to the point. I hope it survives the portal.

whosnotgrey responds:

thanks, i hope it doesn't get blammed either :(

[Stick Fight (Unfinished)]

Good

It was good. Certainly better than 90% of the crap that floats through the portal, (which I understand, isn't saying much) And it was obvious that time and effort was put into it.
My only critisism is that it was unfinished- because even if people like it, if it gets finished and submitted again, it's old news.
Just take the extra time and submit finished works.

[Oomlads]

Good start

The animation and drawings were good, and the sound was appropriate, and easy to hear, but it needs work in terms of the "plot" and dialogue.
Also, trim the file size by optimizing audio. It was huge.

B-Margera responds:

thanks
i'll work on it

[The Orange Guy Ep.1]

Nice animation

Your "Author's Comments" made it sound like crap, but I was really impressed by the expression conveyed by your simply-styled animation. The sound was average, and it was way too short, but the orange guy was enjoyable to watch.
I'd like to see something longer. And with more of a point.

Joelasticot responds:

Thanks a lot! I tried to get some good loops to put in the movie but I didn't find any that was cool. If I make more, I'll try to find more sounds.
Thx again

[Enter the Action]

Nice graphics

Aside from the obvious, that it's yet another stick figures with guns flash, it's done well. Nice Job on the 3D.
A little short, too.

[Starwars Christmas]

Short, and sweet

Excellent animation, especially.
I wish there was more flash like this and less seizure-inducing crap!
Kudos!
