Gerkinman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[L337 Kr3w: Reanimation]

OKay

So you make a horrible looking menu that lets you pic which horribly drawn character fights this other horribly drawn character in an incredibly poorly animated and voice acted fight sequence which does nothing but show your one gift is stealing? Everything about this movie needs improvement. Better writing wouldnt hurt, nor would some decent voice work. The animation was terrible, mainly due to the art style btu also due to lack of skill and experience, practice both these areas. And lastly, try coming up with your own ideas rather then stealing other peoples.

[Pineapples]

Oh dear

I have to say that was quite a bit of a guilty pleasure. I know i shouldn't have enjoyed that but i did anyway.

Interesting story, i have a friend that ate so much pineapple as a kid that he is allergic to it now hes an adult, i kid you not.

[Skittles N' Dickz]

An Atrocity

Every single piece was a poorly written, poorly animated, poorly concieved piece of trash.

Congradulations on not stealing any lines from sitcoms, is a shame that all your original stuff was even worse tho.

Next time try learning to write, learn how comedic timing works, get some people that know how to voice act to help and for the love of god learn how to draw instead of using sprites.

[Mentanks]

Bleh

The point of fun is to make something entertaining, all you have done here is make some poorly animated bullshit with bad voiceacting and... well i cant think of anything positive to say about it.

[Bad Baby]

Here so, have a 10

That was quite brilliant, quite brilliant indeed. I dont think i have a single complaint other then the fact it ended. How can i not smile when im being subjected to such a display of color and whimsy.

[Zelda LinkXRetro]

Horrible

The animation was god awful, the character designs where ugly, the animation was choppy at best, the backgrounds and colour choices stung the eyes.

Im not entirely sure what was going on, just look like Link killing some toads...

I suggest practicing your drawing and animation before trying another project like this.

I can see what you where trying to achieve, you just dont have the direction or experience in flash to make it happen.

Just keep practicing.

[crossroads in the sky]

Interesting approach

Some nice Pseudo 3D effects in there, and nice pacing.

The dialogue came accross a little flat, and perhaps, it all happened to quickly.

Regardless, its nice to see something like this on newgrounds, makes a nice change from the usual fair.

[Zelda: UO Epis:6]

There are so many problems with this series.

The voice acting is terrible, its flat with no highs or lows. Everybody just talks with no emphasis on important words, or with any personality, its just completely flat and boring to listen to. Get a decent microphone and learn how to put emphasis into your dialogue.

The backgrounds tend to be really low res bitmaps, with alot of artifacting and pixelation, leaving them ugly to look at. Learn how to properly compress your backgrounds, or better yet, make vector backgrounds.

And last of all the animation, much like the voice acting is completely flat and uninspired. Theres some fake 3D in there, but it comes accross as cheap. The character models are ugly and disjointed. The art direction lakes the nostalgia of the official Ocarina of Time art, or the elogance of the official Twilight Princess art. Its just a boring anime based style with little to no personality. Try learning some frame by frame and teaching yourself about what camera angles are interesting. Theres more to it then just front on and side on.

The writing is also incredibly juvenile and unrealistic.

Sorry for coming accross so negative, but this is not an example of how to make a good zelda flash. And its score is incredibly bloated.

[Marios New Secret Weapon3]

Very flawed.

Im not sure what the point of all this was, the use of paramites, which were obviosuly traced but looked nice all the same, and were very smoothly animated. And mixed with that was some poor sprite animation with very very boring backgrounds. I can see you were syncing all the combat up to the music, which was a nice touch. Im just suprised nothing came even close animation wise to the quality of the paramites. Id say work more on oddworld stuff, which is a genuinely good series and less on making generic sprite movies and you could go places.
