Zyphonee's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tribute to Tommy II]

Ha, that was funny

That was funny, I specially liked the whole stand up add to the comedy. The moments of frame by frame looked truly great, like the movement of the hand in the first clip, etc. The graphics were just fine, they really weren't too impressive, but they were not bad wither. At times it looked like you got in some way "sloppy", that's the only way I can think that is really proper to describe them, not because of the gradients, which also looked kinda bad, but the shading scheme wasn't really all that complex, but just shading here and there. A good way to make it look better would be taking in mind the light source and the volume in your characters, which really lacked a lot.

What was really annoying was the pitches in the audio, I'd recommend using a better mic for recording, removing the noises with something like Audacity, etc or just try to keep a reasonable distance between yourself and the mic. The animation had it's flaws too, like the three or four frame running cycles and things like that, but it was really smooth too in some moments.

It's a good animation. It's not perfect, but not bad one bit either, it's an exact 8.00

Thanks I'll take all of that into consideration. Thanks for the review

[IRC Time Trial #3]

Fuck!

On the last one I voted 0 instead of 10, I am sorry, anyways, here's the 10...

[TaL: The Snowball Effect]

heh, interesting

That was preety funny, the animation was good, but I would lie if I said I was expecting a bit less of tweens and more FBF, tweens sorta made the animation style an eyesore, which would lead me to think that you didn't test the movie enough times while making it. The drawings were lovely, I really like you Butch Hartman style, although I don't like The Fairy Oddparents, your art style is funny and cartoony, aswell as your character design.
The ending was a big shock, I liked it, but since this was for April Fools, I thought it was just someone throwing the snow from a rooftop, so I jumped back in laughter at the last moment. Keep this stuff going, this is good!

Pixmintro responds:

Thanks, I cram tweens down your throat since my turn-around time on these movies is so slow. I guess I need to own up to the Butch Hartman-iness of my style. :P

Kirby is everywhere

All bow to Kirby.

[Charlie the Unicorn 3]

O

What the fuck is wrong with you?!
Whatever it is, never fix it, I think I love you, but if you ever stop making this, I will track you, find you and ask you politely to keep making them.

[Everything by Everyone]

Not worth my time.

This was truly bad. Bad to the point I really can't see any reason to watch it again, but since I really want to help you make a better movie next time, I will.
As soon as it started, it was almost obligatory that you put in a Tankmen clip. I can almost picture you making this animation, since as soon as it started with the Tankmen clip, which, although it wasn't godishly good and neither I say it should be, was in fact preety good. But also, as that started, I already saw the first problem with this movie. Why did you think it would be a good idea to make a movie that is COMPLETELY about an art style that is different to yours?! I mean, in the first clip for example, the Tankmen really didn't look too alike JohnnyUtah's originals. I am not saying you should make it so good it looks traced, but at least respect a bit the original.
As soon as the first one was finished, the movie literally went from 60 to 0 in 0.03 secs. The Aladin 3150 part droped my already low entusiasm feet low. It was just... two tweens, that's all I am allowed to say or if else, people will start saying "This is abusive because you used unpolite language to describe it" and I actually want you to read this and get better. Partly because I don't like seeing movies like this being so overrated, please excuse me but it is true, and partly because I just enjoy seeing progession.
The Freetown Cameo was what, as an Rtil fan, hurted me the most. Although the art was "edible", the animation was bad in all the sense of the word. The tweens you used to animate it, not only were they, in fact, tweens, but really rough ones. It was literally hard to watch it.
The animation technique was lazy in all the sense of the word. a good thing you should know is that if you tween an eye to be vertically smaller, it won't look like a blink, it'll just look like the character from Fallen Angel can manipulate her body form due to radiation, I don't see a reason why you wouldn't prefer to use FBF to make it.
Like I said, not worth my time, to all fellow readers, feel free to rate this useless because "I can't understand how epic and awesome it is, because it's cool music played with clips of series" I really won't care, but I'd aprettiate it a lot if you readed this review on which I spended timeof my life and took in mind the things I pointed out, since you had a preety neat idea of making some sort of "Newgrounds AMV" (I know I am missinterpetating the meaning of AMV, but it really is the best way I could find to describe this movie) but it can only turn into a neat movie if you actually know how to animate it.
You have a lot of spirit into you for making this, good for you over that, however you should try to keep that spirit always up and don't get tired and refuse to put much more effort, like I saw, and make a total sudden change on the animation.
If you've actually came this far, I thank you and I'll be sure to watch your next movie.

[HOUSE MD animated]

Funny

I liked it, however, why nobody mentioned Lupus?!

[Sirtom93 Plays With Fire]

You get 10 points

For being the first one.

[Hot Girl in the ComicShop]

I like it!

You have a really interesting style of animation, I like is, good job!

[Keep your Computer Happy]

That was... enjoyable, really enjoyable

This truly broke my expectations. In a good way, so first, I'd like to say that, as ussual, HappyHarry did a stunishing job with the voice acting, the audio over the whole animation showed a lot of dedication and was entertaining to listen to.
The animation was great and a pleasure to watch, the last scene, the one with the person talking, was a bit worse than the rest (basically due to the making of the lip sync on another layer, which was sort of a contrast with the rest of the animation) this, unlike in most cases, isn't a bad thing, since the animation in the rest of the movie was awesome. The backgrounds, alongside with the audio, make the movie worth watching over and over again.
Probably the strongest point of this movie is that it has things that aren't completely necessary but makes it look better. A good example of this is the work put into the movement of the computer, which has some frame by frame that looks really great. On another note, I managed to spot the Wonchop toy on the shelf, good addition.

Truth is, this is the best submission you've made. Congratulations over a great movie indeed.

Nothing like good ol' Blackcurrant Squash Monkey propoganda.
