notorious's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Doodlequest]

not actually that creative

because actually, this looks very similar to an older animation called "paper wars"

I'm not sure if you've seen this before or not, either way it was a little too similar for comfort. Also, the lines were sloppy, the animation was mediocre and the characters were not well drawn, or very appealing to look at. I appreciate the effort, but i think you could do a little more to improve your style and make it interesting, or at least your own thing.

pthouse responds:

Thanks for watching, and showing me the link to that video. Neither Raskin nor I have seen Paper Wars, but you're right, the similarities are uncanny. I do think he did a great job with the same basic idea. The lines in my cartoon are meant to be sloppy because they are supposed to be skribbles, and I know I could do better on the animation. I was on a deadline for a festival so I worked as fast as I could. Again thanks for watching and the review.

[Star Day:rtil SS memories]

anyone, can animate

man i remember seeing your SeaT parody for the first time. Funny shit lulz!

[The Press & Punch Collab]

very original idea

well this takes the prize for being the most original pico day submission, that's for sure. It was really fun to watch all the different endings, and i tried to avoid scene selection but eventually i got bored of watching the first part. Great collab!

[Operation: Warehouse]

Daz holy shit

i mean i knew you were good, but i didn't know you were THAT good! You are gonna win some big time $$. This reminds me, i need to finish my muse part. And yes i will complete it i swear!! Great work.

Jeinu responds:

thanks a ton man :)

[The Anger of Animation 3]

a lot of things wrong with this animation

1. There was very little of your own original artwork, actually none since stick figures aren't original

2. This had incredibly little to do with the title, only in the very beginning and then it just seemed like you put that beginning in there to make it fit with the title, and the rest was just fight scene

3. I know it's inspired by Animator Vs. Animation, but it's a little TOO much like it. There were very few differences, you even had the reboot in there. The only real difference is that you had a different layout/icons you were using on your computer

4. Not that this really matters (and it doesn't detract from the score), but why would you search youtube in google instead of just typing youtube into your browser? Just wondering. This actually isn't anything wrong with the movie so maybe i shouldn't put it as wrong thing number 4 but whatever.

The camera movements were nice, the stick figure movement was nice, the cropping and moving images i can see probably took some work, as i've done that sort of animation before, but it just wasn't original or interesting, at least to me. You did however pull off the animator vs animation style well, to end on a good note.

KobraEditing responds:

1. I love stick figures still...even after all the crappy things people have done to them

2. What?

3. I didn't take any ideas from AvA other than the setting

4. Google was there...so I used it

this is great

wow, this is really fucking cool

[RWD: 010 Mario12]

has more animation than most flash with mario

that's good enough for me

meng

sweet as shit, amazingly smooth animation as always combined with killer effects. You need to start making full animations again like 'Casualties of a Dice Game', or 'Earth Rot', man those were the best.

[It's Still Me]

what

really, this kind of looks like a lame excuse for the fact that you had no new ideas whatsoever. You made a bunch of random short shit and compiled it together, a bunch of sloppy doodles that weren't even filled in most of the time. Seriously, I've seen this before from you and it's getting pretty old. Make more animations that look like you actually put effort into, like -LSD-DMT-, that was actually pretty good. I'm getting pretty tired of this random weird crap.

At least some of the graphics were ok.

Sqeezy responds:

i care?

awesome artwork and character design, great story too. Keep it up!
