"For all "Hellraiser" fans; Watch this!"

submission: Hellraiser

date: May 31, 2005

Extremely good! I love "Hellraiser", it's one of my favorite horror movies. Clive Barker is an extremely good horrormaster who follows in the fotsteps of Steven King, and I can see that you are about to get famous here.

The art was lovely, never before I thought we would see such a detailed horror flash movie. And I got to tell... that it's those huge movie spin-offs who strike hardest. (*Smile*)

Ofcourse people knows what "Hellraiser" is. Afterall, alot of Newgrounders are horror movie lovers (Yes I read the author's comments).

But, just one question. Was that guy who got killed supposed to be Frank Cotton from the first "Hellraiser" movie?
If it was, he was looking a bit young there. (*Smile*)

Anyway, if not, it was all fine because it's more fun to see more scenarios.
But the movie was a bit short though...

The "pandora box" looked awesome too. And the sounds were filling a good part of the movie. But you should change the music in the opening title, there are better music for that scene.

It all looks professionall to me. A clear 10/10.

But, there is one scene there the characters looks too stiff though you've taken to paintings and just tweened them. The heads doesn't sit at the same place at the body through the whole scene.

It's the scene when "Painhead" and the others are aproaching their victim...

Anyway, I hope to see more from you! And thank you for submitting on Newgrounds!

"Hahahahaha! Awesome work!"

submission: Burnt Face Man 3

date: May 13, 2005

I love your lines in this movie. I didn't think you would continue to make those movies about "Burnt Face Man", but you did, and I'm very happy about it. (*Smile*)

Anyway, the graphic is great, no disapointments in this new episode and "Anger Man" looked really mean, and the "Golden Shower" was funny. Hehe. (*Can't Stop Smiling*)

The violence is good then. I like the openeing scene too. Acctually, this is so close to my humor so this submission will go to my favorites.

Oh, yeah, well "Man Spider" could have had his legs looking better. The face is looking really good but you can really say that you see that the legs ain't very well animated when you got a good drawed face besides it to see the difference.

Anyway, that part ain't very important though, but worth noticing.

Every single button works perfect, even though I missed a button to turn on/off subtitles. So you should add subtitles.

Thank you VERY much for submitting on Newgrounds!

"Great timing!"

submission: Retarded Animal Babies 13

date: May 12, 2005

The timing of this release were great when the third episode of "Star Wars" will be released the 15th (Or something). The only bad timing this movie had was that I had a class when it entered the portal (The reason to why the review comes so late).

Anyway, the movie is great. It's very funny as usual and the art work is good.

The explosion in the ned doesn't look very good though, you could have done it frame by frame.

The opening title is good. I'm use to that the opening title gets smaller in the same pace, even though it's more far off in the middle. Which makes it look wierd, but you managed to get through that.

The voiceactors (Or maybe it's just one voiceactor who's recordings you've putted on eachother) singing to the opening title is annoying when you just listen to it. If you read the opening title (Which is darn funny), you won't notice the annoyment much, and it will be pretty decent. (*Smile*)

Well, overall, this is really good, but not my favorite episode.

"It could have been alot better."

submission: En ring att styra alla

date: May 7, 2005

It was quite unexpected that the title and everything was in Swedish. But honestly, the sound quality is very poor.
First off, you should buy a better mic because the quality of the graphic diserves it. I don't know, it's also possible that the mic is good but you got atmosphere sound in the background so you can hear when you pull the mic on and off because of it.
The girl who speaks got the wrong mood in her story telling. She sounds like someone who brags about something. Not like someone who tells a story, I would consider to change that voiceactór to a better one.
The sound quality realy bugs me. The effect sounds and background sounds is sometimes high-pitched and the volume is not the same and it is not smoth through the whole movie.

You really should make a update to this movie and make the whole movie smoth without those annoyings.

But I want to tell people who is from Norden (Or speaks Swedish) that this is a good work all together and should be considered a look through.

Anyway, thanks for submitting on Newgrounds.

"Abolutely fantastic!"

submission: Space Oddity

date: April 14, 2005

This is the type of flash movies I'm mainly looking for. (*smile*)

It's stylish, lovely and alot of people knows this song. Very good, and worth adding to your favorites!

The spaceship looks very good in the first scene there it is beeing launched. It looks like a projectile. Very nicely done. But then when it's in the space, it looks abit disordered. Because it's just like a tincan. And then agaia, the lyrics says: "[...]I'm sitting in my tincan[...]" which is what the spaceship looks like. Still I don't think David Bowie (If he now was the one who wrote the lyrics) ment it as looking like a tincan. I believe he ment it as a tincan, because it's made of metal. Not mattering of the shape. Anyway, I like it.

The person singing looks quite wierd. His nose is very big, and he looks like someone from a horror movie. Still I don't care, because it's a own style of character, it looks like nothing else. You've putted your mark on that character, the same goes with the photographers and so on. Their eyes are sitting in the side of the mouth. I like it that way, they don't get so much charistic faces, they are not important for the movie. Acctually I think they look like something inspired by Adam Phillips and "Alien Hominid". The eyes in certain from Adam Phillips.

The lip-syncing is good. It must have took you a long time to make it fit. But it looks too stiff. And if you sing to the lyrics by yourself, you can easily recon that the singers mouth is shut, to early.

The graphic, they're great! Like the scene there the spaceship moves into the orbit of earth. The stars fading in. Just lovely.

You got a great movie there. I'll tips some people about it.

"Hahaha! Extremely funny!"

submission: The Child That Smelt Odd

date: April 8, 2005

This was the best movie you've done yet.

I love the music. The little melody which bumps on when they go into a new scene. The familiar environment (School) was a good choice. It's just that more things seems to be able to happend in a school.

I like the places when the sound just stop alltogether. Like in the scene there they say: "Well should we just ban TV all together?" ---Long silente pause--- "Yep". (I think "Yup" sounds funnier but whatever).
And I love it. (*Smile*)

The graphic are good too. That the characters' faces are sharper than their bodies. Every character are very well drawed. Even though I think you should have given the humming schoolkids arms.

And that the guy shook the hair from his eyes; All those natural movements you've captured. I's lovely!

The outro were also good, it was strict, and looks very professional with the simple lines which includes everything it needed.

Fine preloader, subtitles. I love the scene there the TV-reporter make a report about that TV has been banned. It's just so funny. (*Smile*)

"Did we ban any weapon?" "Shut up and imagine!"

Well I just think it's so darn funny.
The different character sound, the background sounds and the effect sounds. Awesome.

Score: 3

"I didn't like it."

submission: Plans to Fuck Alexis 9

date: March 31, 2005

I will just list all the categories and why you got the certain score.

Graphics: Not very impressive. The characters don't look any special. It's not something, some look they have which you put on your mind. They look way too familiar to all these movies which gets blammed.

Style: Not high. This was supposed to help people get a girl. It didn't help at all and it was just silly. The guy who speaked sounded very depressed and the tema of this movie were happy, not sad. He sounded boored and it just doesn't fit.
There were to many stupid things as, "Rob a bank". And that Snorlax being throwed at some strange creatures. I just find it odd.

Sound: The voiceactor did an extremely bad job. Microsoft Sam would have done a better one. Atleast he sounds happy. This voiceactor sounded extremely dull. The song at the end were quite bad too. I never stuck for it. There are so many good songs to choose. Music which would deserve the score this movie had without animation.

Violence: The Snorlax crushing the wierd character was all the violence this had. Yeah, the foot in the beginning was good. It was so wierd so I thought it was funny. Othervise, the scene there the Snorlax crushed the creature was as good as the graphic were, just look at the top about graphics.
But this movie weren't about violence so I wouldn't expect a high vviolence scoring either.

Interactivity: It was alright. There were no preloader so all the scoring you got was for the buttons. Don't expect 1 point as bad, the more buttons and the better they work, the more points you'll get.
I like the idea that people can send you notes about what you should make better. But we got the reviewing system, so it was quite unnessecary.

Humor: The only funny thing was the foot crushing him in the beginning. But the voice actors annoyingly dull voice took away everything which made it fun. So you'll get a low score there.

Overall: I simply doesn't like it. If I would decide, this would get blammed. That is the reason to why you got a low overall scoring.

Anyway, I'm still glad you submit on Newgrounds and I hope you'll continue to. Thank you.

"I think it's plain stupid."

submission: SMP How To Stay Skinny

date: March 29, 2005

I just think hurting yourself badly without any reason is stupid.

There were no preloader. And that is wierd because you do really need to put in one there.

I hate saying this, but this was bad. What does anyone learn by suffering like this? From braking a leg or jumping on a partner so he gets hurted?

The only reason to get hurted should be while you're doing some training so you need to suffer to get harder.

Well. I like the song, but the whole concept of the movie was bad. And, I don't even know if that guy acctually broke something.

Thank you anyway for submitting on Newgrounds.

"Hahaha! Great!"

submission: One Pie to Rule Them All

date: March 28, 2005

Finally you submitted something again! (*Smile*)

I like it even though I thought the story would be different because of the title. The graphics were great. Typical your style of drawing.

The sounds were many and in good quality. But the first song was cutted too quickly without a fade or anything.

I looked at what the heck that thing on the portal could be named "One Pie to Rule Them All", when I gladly saw that it was my Irish friends movie! (*Happy*)

Anyway, it was worth it's exellent scoring!

"I love it!"

submission: Brandon's New Job

date: March 27, 2005

This was awesome!

I like the background sounds there you hear the city traffic and the sound from the paper and his footsteps. It's very well made!
But I think you could have putted in one sound more like a scream from Brandon when the power were cutted for the whole New York City!

The compression and the file size is great. The interactivity good too; It's too ordinary that flash artists let the replay button take you to the preloader to let you press "play" when you're there. But this replay button did acctually work as they're supposed to; You were taken to the first frame of the acctual movie! Good.

I loved the story, a celebration movie to your friends new job! Haha I wonder what he'll say! (*Smile*)
I don't care if the movie only were a half minute long; it were extremely well done the secounds it lasted.

The violence goes directly with the story, a guy which follows a basic wiring program like that! Aaah, it's just lovely! (*Smile*)

The graphics were also all fine, the scene with Brandon himself were better drawed than the guy at the scetch which it's supposed to be like.

Well, I don't got so much to complain about, maybe the sound there. I think some background sounds and a scream are missing.

However, thank you VERY much for submitting on Newgrounds!
