dustyh's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mecha Duel]

pritty good.

Well, first of all, the frame rate was TOO LOW. Made the animation look a little choppy. Of course, the animation was really great, which totally makes up for that. Well anyway it starts off making sense, but then after the blue guy beats him, the red guy has to go and throw a pussy fit and start fighting him in real life. That part seriously makes no sense, on so many levels. And then.. they each have their own robots..? What the fuck? Yeah yeah I know, it's a cartoon, and it's anime, but still. I hate stuff like that. But all of the fighting looked really awesome, especially when they were fighting as they were falling (a very different perspective). One more small complaint, I find it funny how the people fell to the ground almost instantly, yet it took the two giant robots about 5 minutes to reach the ground... lol. I know it was just used to cap off the end a bit and what not but still. It's not logical. But oh well. Set all that shit aside, you still did a good job. The music was super annoying, I guess it's just not in my tastes (although it did have a couple good sounding parts, and actually fit well with the movie). Anyway I don't think this should have stolen first place over NightStrike, but considering that Newgrounds is full of anime fags, I guess it's no surprise...

StephenRedmond responds:

Mm, it might have looked a bit choppy, but if I'd tried making a four minute animation at higher than 12fps using a mouse to draw with, it would've taken forever.

You're right, not everything is perfectly logical, but when you compare it to all the 'random' flash movies there are, this is practically a work of literary genius. :P

NightStrike is a good game, and it was a really close call. I don't know much about programming, but there were two of them working on that, and it has comparitively little animation... overall, I think it's pretty fair that I won.

Anyway, thanks for the review.

a lil confused

Well at first, I thought "sweet, reggae and a dancing pot leaf, waht could be better?" Then I saw the pot leaf start to fold up and shit and I thought it might be some cool video of an awesomely animated potleaf. But all it does is sorta... tie itself in a knot, and then the text comes up, "All it tells is lies" and the end? Sorry, but what the hell is that supposed to mean? Being a frequent ganja smoker myself I think I know what you are talking about, when your high, you see, think, and do things different from what you normally do, but in your mind, you see it all as ok, but really you are just being lied to, by the weed. But you know, that's a pessimistic way to think about it. Smokin weed is more of an uplift for the spirit, and the soul, because it really does make you happier, drives them evil spirits away. One person being sober and another being stoned, the sober one might be annoyed by the stoner's antics and whatnot, where as the stoner would just be chill. But when they are both stoned, well, they are both happy, and everything is just great. It's all on how you look at it, really. Anyway that's just the message I got from this (a negative position on marijauna), but it wasn't clear enough for me to understand so I don't know if that is really what your saying or not. But really, really good animation. And I loved the music. Later.
