SketchMichaels's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Aunt Carole - Part 1/4]

Not as funny as your past ones...

... plus, the lip syncing was atrocious. I think you need study how the mouth works better; grab a mirror, and practice. Graphics are good, better than most, but this wasn't entertaining. I kept waiting for something to happen... and then it ended. Better luck next time.

MarioTheMonkey responds:

We only have the option to upload SWF files in NG... if you watch this movie in MOV (QuickTime) the lip sync is perfect (or MPGE). I think the best format to watch internet movies is QuickTime.
And... please wait! This is the part 1 of 4.

[Legacy Episode 2]

Visually stunning, but...

... you need to work on your storytelling abilities. By this, I mean that, while your charactrs are working properly and everything, the flow of this is really shaky; characters pop up of whose affiliation/purpose we are unclear, there are way too many close ups to understand the action half the time, and so forth.

I think, if you work on your storyboarding and pre production more, try getting some establishing shots thrown in there, and smooth out the pacing a little better, this would be much more successful.

confusedwatcher responds:

Thank you for your critique. It was manny critique like yours that resulted in much improved follow up to Legacy episode 1. I will take what you've said in future episodes. Again, I thank you.

[A Protection Movie]

Ha ha nice!

Sweet stuff there.

altr responds:

Thanks ...

[QUEST Parody3]

That was terrible.

This looks like an awful amount of detail went into this. Emphasis on awful. It would have been a lot better if the graphics weren't so dicey, and there was actually some sort of animation besides the few tweens you have in there (for example, have the warrior and the archer actually walking, not just floating down the screen).

Fart jokes and a bad premise... I overestimated your age before viewing your profile by a decade. Congratulations.

Beer-Drinker responds:

I can only respond one way to this review...Nonsense poopy-pants! Oh well, thanks for at least leaving a review.

[The Atheist and the Bear]

:)

I remember reading that joke a long time ago. You got a smile out of me, nicely done!

NeeKnight responds:

Glad you liked it.

[Ep 6 : Conclusion]

Pros and cons.

I think your previous submissions were a lot stronger than this piece. It did, however, have it's moments, and the subject matter by itself is rather comical.

As far as the storyline went, it was fluid, and certainly more coherent than most of the stuff that pours into the portal, so yay for happy endings.

io3creations responds:

Yes, I know. Please refer to the updated author's comments for explanations. Thanks for the review.

[game.exe]

Very nice :)

Nice style you have going here, and an even nicer-packed flash, glad to see someone else out there who knows how to optimize.

Anywho, kind of saw it coming, but it was good for a chuckle, nonetheless.

PyroG responds:

hehe you are the third person commenting on good compression thanks

["Fun with Anvils"]

Ha!

An uprising against perhaps the most overrated person on Newgrounds. I concur.

Livecorpse responds:

Hands down the most overrated. At least LF earns 80% of his fame.. This guy just traces Jhonen Vasques (google it!!1), uses Smooth tool, and speeds up his hitleresque rants,and calls it a flash.

[Wereneffy]

Love the elf...

Movie wasn't too shabby, the easter egg was rather entertaining :)

MetalClock responds:

Thanks, but that isn't an elf... It's the über smecksay Dwarfinatorclock ^____^
