KaynSD's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kayo Mata [ I ]]

Drunkduck not enough for you Sub? ^_^

You know, as soon as I saw your name on the front page of NG I wondered whether it was the same guy. Didn't know you played about with Flash...

Considering you're epic drawing skills have got you into the Drunkduck compendium at least once, I'm not even going to start to comment on the artwork. The voices were okay, but nothing spectacular. Can't wait to see more.

subcultured responds:

I just started to mess with animating again. Kinda taking a lil brake from doing webcomics. I saw animation as a real challenge and you know I don't let anything stop me until i have mastered it. like getting one of my animations in the frontpage. ^_^

[Drive Bys Without Guns V2]

Could be better. A lot better

It's a decent concept. But it needs a lot of polish.

As some people have already pointed out, the victims are walking backwards at a rate of forty knots. This is because your background is moving out of sync with them.

When the car comes onto the screen with the guy, the background movement should stop and so should he. This will mean you'll need to slow down the car so that it doesn't rush away too quickly.

Some of it was a bit immature, though it's nowhere near as bad as some stuff on the portal. Hopefully Version 3 will take these ideas into consideration.

I'll be looking out for it

justgeor responds:

ya, its a backwards running marathon.... duh. lol. immature, is often funny though. and im only 14 so im not some mega mature adult.

Not Funny Because of Overuse of the F Word

What is it with purile minds and thier obsession with the F Word? F this and F that.

It would have been funny if it had been animated, and there wasn't as much swearing. I mean, a Mantis complaining about his life with people wanting to eat his head constantly IS a pretty amusing concept.

But it wasn't animated, it was voiced badly, and every other word was Fuck.

Mek1985 responds:

Fuck you, pal.

[Terrorist Choreogrphy]

Quirky, yet powerful

Now it's not often you see stuff this interesting at Newgrounds. It's not often that something with political, ironic statements make thier way here and are posted seriously and with a sense of bittersweet sardony.

The only thing letting you down was the presentation. It wasn't too impressive on how it was shown - text messages with some animation squiggles are amusing and all, but that's not all there is too it. I'm sure that a serious Rage Against the Machine style music video would have done the treat and got this baby a five from me.

Oh, and his voice repeating gets on my nerves... Sorry.

SCART responds:

I Know what you mean but it's part of a live peiece and is one of about 4 things happening so making it in a "video" style would dtract attention, although it will be used (Projected on a 5 storey building) in the background when we do the video clip for it.

Cheers

[Dinky and pet rock Ep. 1]

Amusing, But Short

Funny, mostly original, well done and quite well animated and drawn. The only issue I'm thinking of here is that if you submit something every day, you're not going to put the same ammount of effort in to it.

Instead make an omnibus and submit it every week. That's be good.

Retox responds:

no i have series i do a week, but this i've designed so its simple and easy to animate, and should only take a few hours a day. its all about being quick and amusing

[Smoofie Trailer]

What a suprise...

Didn't expect to see you arround Newgrounds Goth... I've been waiting to see something new from you.

However, just because I respect your animation skills, it will not excuse you from my regular habits of voting at Newgrounds. Trailers aren't really worth much to me here. Sound quality wasn't good either.

Can't wait to see the actual finished product

Gofthick-animation responds:

and there is me thinking i'd sorted out the whole goth perspective. I'm not a goth, hopefully it will be popular when finished and i'm glad to see you take an interest.

[((Skate Board Action2))]

See the last reviews...

Fourth verse same chorus.

Thats the third movie clip today... Your (or the guy who is being filmed) are a talented skater. We've got the message.

Now make an animation.

Masta-GrassHoppa responds:

i allready did . Hoppin in da hood 2, watch the beging.

[Mysterious Grey Mushrooms]

Very well sprited

It's better than most of the sprite stuff that comes through the portal. One suggestion I would make is using Speech Bubbles / Speech Bars for the characters. It looks much cleaner than using free floating text.

I'll look out for more of these in the future.

Lambtaco responds:

I've already started the sequel and there are speech bubbles in it.

[(((Hoppin In Da Hood 2)))]

I Don't care if other people do it

Stop Importing into Flash.
Jeez...

Just because other people get away with it doesn't mean we should automatically let you through just because you found the import button.

Go to an Am competition and focus your talents there, and find a decent website to upload your movies to. We call this the Flash Portal for a reason. It's for animators and games programmers using Macromedia Flash.

Not movie makers who found the freaking Import Function
((FYI - I automatically blam movies. Not just yours. Feel special again))

Masta-GrassHoppa responds:

you blam ALL movies? anyways, there is some flash drawings in it too so i wouldnt say anything. and come on now . . . . . . you know waht you should really do? since you're really serious and you are the captain of newgrounds? You should go looking around the portal, looking for imported things and tell them this to. i think the whole world needs to konw. thanks for the advice though. i shoudl submit thsi stuff ot holly wood. so i can be a millionaire and a movie star. thanks for everything.
