Surn's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Airplane Animation]

Mah boi!

Academic success does not equal real world success. You've got a decent grasp of flash but you need to practice more and polish your skills.

VJElectramorhipism responds:

Ok thanks for the info.

[Lf2 Deep's Revenge]

That was it?

Not much of an episode. All it consisted of was some Goku wannabe running up to and whacking some shadow guy as he just stood there and took it. There wasn't even any music. Still, you seem to have decent spriting skills but you need to put more time into your work.

[The spikes]

An interesting change of pace....

Instead of fighting each other they are slowly killed by what they have no defense against...

The music overlaps as it plays over, try setting you music to "stream" instead of "event". You would also do well to look into adding a preloader.

[AF: The Backstabber]

It had a plot...

As you are likely aware, the visuals were quite poor. However, unlike most videos of this visual quality it actually had a decent plot.

thanks for commenting

[mario the adventure]

Sure fire Winner!

Idolized trademarks? Upbeat music? Sensory overload, anime-intro action? This is a sure fire way to get a high rating on newgrounds!

Two main complaints:
1. No intro screen or play button:
Very unprofessional. This gives the appearance of a shaky start which will definitely drag your mark down regardless of how good your work is.

2. Mario as fast as Sonic?
I'm no fan-boy, but personally, Mario (not particularly known for speed) being able to keep up with Sonic (synonymous with speed) just doesn't seem to make sense to me. I'm sure others would agree.

uh...

Perhaps the reason for the lack of reviews is that people have a hard time commenting on strange things.
With this style of animation I'd recommend you consider getting into "animutation":
(http://www.newgrounds.com/collection /animutations). Anyway, on with the formal review.

Visuals:
Cutouts, cutouts and more cutouts (like an animutation). You did a decent job of cutting them out but there white spots around the edges. You seemed to know what to use when to use it and what little you did draw was pretty good (kudos on the lazor meme).

Animation:
"Pro" reviewers usually whine about tweens (having flash move the object rather than moving it yourself frame-by-frame). Of course this is probably hard to avoid when using cutouts.

Audio:
Pretty good. You seem to access to some well know music which is good since people like what is familiar.

Plot:
From what I can gather this is a scenario of what would happen if some Power Ranger wanna-bes went to São Paulo City, showing that what works in Japan doesn't work in São Paulo. It goes without saying that if one is using a site that is predominantly in english that one should at least have subtitles.
