Ben-Spurgin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic In Heat]

Hahah

Earl's freestyle was the shit!! You should put beats like that in all your flicks!

[Betrayal™]

Cool!

All these stupid portal movies are exactly the same. They're so STATIC! This Flash is a perfect example of how to spice up your animations by having a constantly moving "camera". Also, this piece does a great job of conveying emotions. Everyone has been able to relate to a significant other cheating on them. The parts that most exhibited this were when he smashed the mirror and his last thoughts while he plummeted. Overall, great stuff! You get a 10!

[Goo - Part 1]

Well

A great effort, and this probably took a buttload of time, and there's some people out there that will probably love this. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them. I know how easy it is to do shape tweens with frame easing so it takes more than black & white shape tweens to impress me. Also, the movie was frightfully slow-paced. The plot was decent, but the story could have been told in a fraction of the time and been much more interesting (of course, I say that about most portal flicks because it's true of most of them).
Also, in order for a plot to be engaging, it has to have some sort of intriguing challenge for the protagonist, and getting up stairs just seemed boring. But that's just my opinion, I'm sure some people will really dig this.

[Death of a Bad Stere]

Snicker

Nuclear bomb + awesome theme song = 10!

[Interviews in Hell]

Snarharhar

Great flick! Definitely the funniest I've ever seen on NG, and that's saying a lot! Makes those stupid College Univesity movies and Deep Fried Live cartoons look about as funny as getting your penis stuck in the garbage disposal. Keep it up!

Matzerath responds:

Thank you, Mr.Vomit. That's the best review I've ever recieved without a bribe! The sequel is coming soon!

[Eskimo Bob Episode:515]

AMEN!!

AMEN! I hate that little fucker.

[Scarce Reality]

Ummm

Your other preview was better, but really, come on, 2 previews? Just come out with the stinkin' movie already! And if it's too hard to make a whole one, just make a preview-length movie with a plot, that will be just as good.
And how come there's no movement? Animations are supposed to move around. And how come there's Matrix references in both of them? Why don't you use color? Why did you put huge long credits if it's only you working on the movie, and WAIT... it's not even a real movie! And why are you half-naked in your profile? Put some clothes on, we don't want to see your pasty white flesh!

[Mobile Ball J Episode 1]

Well

A good effort. But aren't animations supposed to move? I counted like 7 pshots of actual movement. Also, the idea was ripped straight from Gundam Wing. You've practiced drawing, now practice moving.
Also, slow paced credits are BOOOOORING to watch.

RocksuneJustice responds:

NO SHIT IT WAS RIPPED FROM GUNDAM WING U MORON ITS A PARODY, ITS SUPPOSED TO BE ALIKE. OH MY GOD YOU PEOPLE DRIVE ME INSANE.

[Axe]

Hmm

A valiant effort. Next time, try including some more sound effects. Also, the music was pretty lame for what was going on. Wouldn't some metal or something be better suited? Beginning was a little slow paced, but the end certainly wasn't! Decent pointless violence.
Oh yea, and Flash has something useful called a "smooth" button. You've probably discovered it by now though.

[Bucky Wild-Boy In Peril!]

Man

Portal voters are so stupid! Why the hell does this movie have less than a 3 and Sticks are at #1?!?!? That's friggin ludicrous if you ask me! I would have given you a perfect score if your movie had some action in it. Super heroes need to save the day, Zap just kinda flew around. The kid's voice was suitably annoying, and the graphics were great, just show some shit going down and you'll have a winner!
