DarkX64's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dear Evark,]

Thanks for the waste!

The animation was 3 year old quality, the joke is between you and someone else and this had no meaning outside of wasting the time of everyone involved. Not horribly, unspeakably terrible. But still a far cry from good.

CNRHKick responds:

Thanks man!

[Wacky Game Jokez 4 Kidz]

You sure got a strange method...

...of letting your fans know how much you hate them.
Ok, maybe that's reading too much into this, but after Jerry, this just struggles to be sub-par in comparison to what you used to do. Now, you're just totally deliberately doing a bad job in an attempt to lose viewers. A simple "Fuck off everybody," would have sufficed.
I gave a 6 instead of a Zero because some part of me would like to believe that you don't think fans are brainless shit holes in need of a slapping around. Maybe you're going through some rough times and need some rest. Or maybe you just don't give a crap.
I'd wager the last one is the case. Whatever the case, I hope things turn up for you later and that your material can replicate the success of the Jerry series. As I wrap up this review, I should note that the Jerry series was, by far, a superior comedic series complimented with sadness, happiness, surprises and an all around memorable experience.
This wasn't.

HotDiggedyDemon responds:

I don't understand how you've inferred that I'm deliberately doing a bad job and I hate my fans

[a moderately funny joke]

It took two times for the joke to set in...

...but once it did, the lolz just came a rollin' in. This was funny. Why didn't you see fit to inform me about this? I have stated that I like your work in the past.
Ah well. It was funny.
Here's your 4 and 9.

Horsenwelles responds:

this has been a moderately funny joke.

enjoy the rest of your day

[Shared Food Tastes Better]

That was nice!

Normally, I would have a lot to say. But the simplicity of the idea message shows in the animation, anything I have to say has probably already been said and it just isn't necessary to clog this up fancy word that are just elaborate ways of saying "I like this." Because, quite frankly, I do. This goes to the favorites, no question :D. I look forward to seeing more from you.
Sincerely,

DarkX.

PS: Put a price on this and offer it to the highest bidder. Things like this are always going on T.V and around the Internet. I understand that this was just meant to deliver a message. But if you can distribute it so that it reaches public eyes (where things like this should be) and make some profit from delivering that message (the incentive to do it again and better than the last time), I say go for it! I believe that there's plenty to gain by selling this idea out for everyone involved. Regardless what you do, I wish you luck and hope that you never stop getting better.

jackbliss responds:

Aw.. thanks for the long thoughtful review DarkX. I will definitely give your idea of selling this a try. If you know anybody interested let me know :)

[Angel and the Fox, Act II]

YOU BASTARD!!!

YOU PUT UP THE NEW ONE WITHOUT EVEN TELLING ME!!!!
*sigh* Now that that's out of the way...

Wow. The first one got all around nicer reviews. Although, I do agree that despite better animating skills and "juicy sound fx" (oh yea! A creaking door! What won't they think of next?) this time around, the first actually WAS better. The ending, looping music, out of place sound and lack of a soundtrack more fitting to the experiences in this installment are all backwards steps from where you were in the first. I can understand the injury. Still alright though. Some suggestions:

1) Make a post asking for someone to contact you in regards to handling audio. This will solve problems for the next one.
2) When you get better, remake these both, but keep the original first. THIS can go...

I hope you do better next time. No hard feelings for the score, ok? Keep in touch!

DarkX.

Jamieneo66 responds:

Thanks Dark lol,
I'll remake it when my wrist heals up, well i say remake, parts of it are ok its other parts that need to be remade ><
So yeah i'll do that soon as i have some time and it'l be alot better :D

[Christmas day]

Nice!

You included voices this time around! Was that you as Rhay? That was pretty funny. But I was expecting a little more though. I expexted that to be like a fake santa that they had to fight or something like that. You still get an 8 and a 4 for effort, considering that this is an improvement from the last one. It makes me have high hopes for "To the Top."

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU SHOT DOWN SANTA CLAUS!!!

Rhay-Tatsuki responds:

XD Thanks!^^
Thanks for the little idea, I will do my best next time.^^

[QOTSA: radio surfing]

Weird and funny.

What inspired this exactly? I'm curious. Anyway, nice animation, funny strange gags and some pretty darn funny voices. Try next time for more humor or rapid fire it. Or better yet, make fun of actual radio stations. You're doing good. You could be gold man, cuz all you are now is polished silver! So you know what I say?

GO FOR IT!

Horsenwelles responds:

this was a compilation of 2 tracks from "songs for the deaf", which have radio segments in them at specific points

listen to them before you totally blame me for their humor

[Angel and the Fox]

Very nice little piece of work.

I'll admit, when I saw the file size, I expected something diappointing. Sometimes, however it's nice to be wrong once in a while. This only got a 4 and a 9 because of great music and the moving simple story. Some more animation and maybe some voicework would make this a 10/10 and 5/5 fro certain. The type of work you have submitted is always welcome and wanted. Never doubt that for a second. Tell me if you plan on continuing this as a series. Please and thank you for the nice animation.

Sincrely,

DarkX

P.S: I favorited this :).

Jamieneo66 responds:

Thank you for the fave ^^
And also for adding me to your fave flash artists =D makes me feel appreciated :)
The reason theres no voicework, is mainly because the mic i have isn't that great, if it was better i would do some voicework, but future projects i'll start messing around with that as i'm still new at flash XD
And yes i do plan to continue this, even if its only three or four episodes long, i'll continue it so please.
Look forward to it ^^ :)

[Charcoalmation]

Wow, Whoa and COOL!

That was pretty a) Freaky b) Awesome and c) Freakishly Awesome (Freak-some?) I'am diggin the different style, cool song and funny story. Like an abstract marriage of Fantasia and Salad Fingers. Do some more stuff like this please!

Captain responds:

Ha ha thanks. I'm hoping to do some more small animations in the future.

[the ninja collaboration]

"We all worked are(?) buts off..."

Not really. Unless You just started flash today. At least if that was the case, you shoulda stick with tweens cause when I still had the program I realized I can do FBF and it looks like crap. Or, I could do tweens and make something halfway decent. For the assload of flaws, which are to blatantly obvious to actually list, I could have easily said BLAM THIS PIECE OF CRAP! But I didn't. Consider that for next time.

lgnxhll responds:

tweens basicly kill a whole layer and arnt worht your trouble
