AntifreezeDesign's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[I'm Nice!]

Nice!

I like it. It reminds me of those brief moments when I actually enjoy watching Noggin with my kids. And I mean that in a good way. (like a good They Might Be Giants Song).

vakavadesigns responds:

Yeah that was a bit of an influence. I was hoping that having a kid's style animation with a lot of craziness happen would make a humorous contrast.

Thanx for reviewin'!

[St. Paddy's Day Massacre]

Not so much

I liked the expressions on the face, but beyond that it just wasn't that funny to me. You animations were fun, but I felt like your story lacked wit and interest. We've seen the over-the-top-violence-is-funny thing a lot already. This barely had anything to do with St. Patrick's either, which makes it less funny to me. I think if you collaborate or refine the storyline, your next one will hold higher ratings for longer.

Rapheus responds:

Yeah, I kinda felt the same about this one. There isn't really much to the American St. Patrick's day other than getting smashed on green beer. Ah well, I'm running out of useful holidays.

[Newton's Laws 101]

disjointed.

If we move beyond the shock-value humor (which is not particularly new in any way), there isn't really much here. The animations were simplistic, which isn't in of itself necessarily a detriment, but they were inconsistent. People were not rendered with the same style as the backgrounds, so it just looked pieced together with little continuity. It's kinda funny, I guess, but personally I'd be happier doing fewer animations and putting more effort into them.

deathfun responds:

You are indeed very correct on the simplicity and the fact they were inconsistent with the chosen background (though in all honesty, I don't think my chosen characters would have fit regardless of how I did them). However, I prefer to look at the whole when dealing with these sort of animations because otherwise, as you stated, you get hardly anything.

The key word in your paragraph is "I'd be happier". That is you, and not myself.

I'll be sure to improve on the consistency towards future animations. (by the way, quite helpful review)

[Man Man 2]

Mixed

I give it an 8 for Awesome Show randomness, but for me it's missing the "funny" that makes randomness.... well, funny.

OnionsXD responds:

Taken into consideration....will work on funny

[DMT:How to read music/tab]

cool.

Thanks for the info on Tab. I play guitar, and learned piano as a kid, but always wondered what tab was for. I didn't go through the whole thing, but noticed you misspelled "consecutive" in the early pages of the learning sheet music part. Thanks for helping all the guitar heroes out there take it to the real world.

Oh, your logo at the front end is a little slooooooooooow. Read it. Got it. Thanks. Maybe just put it on your menu screen.

Darkmaster603 responds:

OH jeez, thanks for telling me about the typo!

I made the logo a bit more interesting, and to me it seems like to goes by a lot faster. But I think I'll add a skip button.

Thanks for the review and report!
