Little-Renastair's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[House of Apparition]

Pretty Good

I liked the story to this flash, I thought it was pretty good, I do think that the ending could have had a bit more work done to it and the voice acting for Shaun could have done with some improvement, the rest was pretty good though. The way the sound has been edited to sound like it came from diffrent sides when the camera switched focus was also pretty good and not too harsh with headphones.

Music and other sound effects worked pretty well, I do feel more time was put into the background artwork than the character artwork but that doesn't matter too much, it was all still good and decent animation too. I'm glad you had subtitles too but I do think you could have had an option to turn these on and off, minor thing, but the voice acting was clear enough to hear what was said.

Overall, I enjoyed this flash and it was a pretty good story.

5/5

Thank you very much. And you're correct, the backgrounds were done in Photoshop and more time was put into them. I hope for my next animations to have more shadow, details, and overall, more depth in the characters.

Some people said the voices were unclear at some parts, though, I thought it wasn't necessary for an on/off switch for the subtitles, but hey, not everyone agrees with everything, I suppose.

[I can't fap to this...]

I find this difficult to laugh at

I suppose the main purpose of this flash is to amuse and this is something it doesn't do for me, the phrase isn't funny and it really doesn't make for a good joke. The animation and voice acting of this flash however are both good and that works pretty well, the style with it in black and white, well greys, is a decent style too.

Maybe the length is also an issue, but if it's based off a comic then that would explain why it's shorter but it could have gone further if you had added something afterwards, would it have made it more funny? It could have in a way, but not really sure. Basing a flash off a common phrase or a comment, in my opinion, is hard to pull off.

In short, I think everything is good apart from the concept.

[The Many Faces of B]

B for Basic

It's a very basic flash and I know this is reviewing after the event, I can also see that it possibly took a while to make so many frames and changing the font of the text as well as the title text. In that sense, it's pretty creative but there's not a whole lot else to this other than that.

You could have stuck some music on the top of this, something quiet and added a mute button, it would have added a little more to this flash. As it is, I don't think it's that entertaining, more of an art peice, which is why it should really have had some music.

Anyway, happy late Clockday.

3/5

Powerage responds:

Looking over this flash, yeah I agree with you, this could have been better with some quiet music, my skills in flash aren't that great though.

Thank you for your honest feedback, Little-Rena, I appreciate it.

[Xionic Madness 4 Part-1]

Pretty Good

Firstly, I must say I'm not really into action and that I haven't really followed this series but I won't subtract that from the content of this. The animation was great, the opening was a little slow with not much going on though, the effects used to try to balance that we decent but didn't fully work for me. The choice of music and sounds was great, it's also amazing that I thought I heard something from Red Alert and I did, as I can see in the credits, that's a great choice right there.

Anyway, it's a shame that there was a lack of mouths for the characters, it would have been nice to see more and more eyes, that's something I wasn't keen on as it can put a lot of emotion into a character I think anyway. There was also some touchy voice acting in parts but on the whole, that was very well done and worked in really well.

I also like the style of the ending credits, it looks really nice and well presented, which summerises this flash as a whole, it's very good and very well presented.

5/5
