Roger-wilco's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[-Duel-]

umm...

So cheezy it hurt.

Michael-White responds:

Trust me, I agree.

[Monster In The Mansion]

hmm..

do I sense some religious commentary here?

Pretty good man.. glad to hear you got some screenings and won an award or two. Never thought about submitting a flash to a short film fest.

JeremyLokken responds:

I never thought about much of it either. But it works! There's tons of festivals that'll screen flash work. It's the hidden frontier. They don't care that it's flash, just that the experience works for them.

[Juiceball]

Mildly Funny.

Not to much of a satire either, I would hardly compare it to Supersize Me.

Personally I would rather you shut up and let me act upon my right as an American to gorge on fast food and destroy my body as I see fit. People who are too stupid to eat responsibly are only doing the world a favor by cleaning out the gene pool and promoting an evolution into a skinnier civalization.

mom-at-noevil responds:

hear hear!! I agree!

In this case we are struck by the observation that we Americans are in turmoil over what we put into our bodies, and what we know we shouldn’t put into our bodies. We often tell each other what we should do, but then we have trouble doing so ourselves.

We seem to want the “More-Bigger” even when it could kill us. Why?

Anyway, we thought it was a little funny, and we appreciate the feed back from all of you because it helps us learn. Thanks.

As for you poor humorless souls that detect a slight against the national honor, let me remind you that it is a time honored American tradition to satirize the foibles around us and within us. A democratic republic doesn’t simply permit its citizens to say what they think, it needs them to do so.

So God Bless America, and pass the Pie!

[Presidentay!]

Haha, pretty good.

Not bad at all. Im not anti-bush but the ending was great.

All the people leaving the 'omfg j00 get a phive cuz i hate dat stoopid bush, he is teh dumb and way uglies' need to grow up. I dont care if you voice dislike for bush, but you sound like stupid 11 year olds.

Five-Iron responds:

I absolutely agree with you!

I don't really care about Bush. And I'm not a big satirist, but I just wanted to work on something new.

Thanks!

[When it all Ends: SE]

No. no no no no.

>.< this flash makes me angry.. heres some reasons:

1- The deapth of his depression was summed up in 1 line. Showing a persons suicide is not emotion, it is not origional, and it is not art, if the only reason you give is "'whats-her-face' left me."
2- The clamation was sparce, 90% was motion capture film of an un-animated clay figure. they may have been detailed, but rarely animated.
3- Ending lifted from 'Romeo and Juliet'
4- Music lifted from 'Gladiator'

All in all, its a painfully shallow movie trying to be passed off as deep.

GAMECUBICLE responds:

I never said there was a lot of animation in here, AND THAT DOESNT HAVE TO BE

Its all about how you put it all together, and i think i did a good job on that.

[FFVIII tribute..]

You have the right idea.

Your on the right track, and the action was there. In the future, you need to add in alot more frames. It make take a long time but the animation will be a hell of alot smoother.

The good news is:
You didnt use sticks.
You didnt use sprites.
There was no Numa Numa music involved.

About your 'fuck you' to the people at your school, all I can say is; School is what you make of it. keeping a bad attitude will only skew your vision and make stuff look worse than it really is.

Ha-Des responds:

umm hell yeah no numma numma involved :p.
Oh and i don't hate everybody in my schoolm thats just my way to tell them I love them.....well not love them...but I don't hate them...I do kinda hate the word"school" but this is getting longer and longer so i'll just shutup.

[The Useless Mule: Updated]

keep at it.

Keep workin, you'll get better.

I must admit though, I lauged my ass off when he caught on fire.. but only because of the bad animation.

To be serious though, I cant offer any more advice than to watch your movies 9.9x10^385 times before publishing them, there was no reason to have all those typo's and small animation bugs.

also, make a note: If the music only plays for 10 seconds before stopping and restarting, DONT put it on NG until you have either found new music, or fixed the restarting problem.

noob-B-oy responds:

Typos were intentional. I copied the actuall story... I made the music that way because I knew people wouldn't watch it if the file size was too large.

[NONE HERE GO AWAY]

You'll do better when you hit puberty.

You'll do much better when your older, but for now, some advice:

When you have a feeling you want to express in a flash (or any other media for that matter), make the flash to illustrate the feeling, not the events which made you feel it. For example, instead of showing a boy with a sad face and a paragraph explaining how he got it, animate a girl literally reaching into his chest and pulling his heart out. Or, to be less morbid, simply animate his heart ripping in two.

rgfunnyman responds:

I have hit it. And your idea was pretty good

[Skwerlz]

pretty good.

A bit cute for me, but well made.

PencilSketch responds:

Thanks

[Hate To Say I Told You So]

Great animation, no organization.

Didn't like all the inserted movie clips, but the stuff you fbf'd was great. if you made a movie with that kinda fbf and organized it into some sort of sequence of events, you'd have one damn fine flash.

Also could have matched the beat more.

All in all, a very enjoyable watch. Awsome animation and bitchin blood effects.

Topcatyo responds:

Thanks. I'm glad you liked the cartoon. The cartoon was meant to be random, and I didn't exactly try to sync with the song, but I am working on organized fbf sequences in movies.
