Tekkan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lemmings: Deus Ex Machina]

...

I'll have to say that this was pretty good, but whoa. You completely stole the idea from Felix's animation "The Pan". With the multiple characters starting off, then slowly they die as the screen moves to the right because they can't all make it fast enough, plus the left edge of the screen pushing everything the the right with itself--squishing everyone on the randomly shaped background that kills people... I see that you added some fighting random people violence at the end... which is a little origional. Don't get me wrong, it was a great flash, but you need to credit Felix if you're going to actually take that idea.

[Storybook 1: Synj]

Nice.

Winona as Gel, heh heh.

Nice one, and I thought that the guitar in the background was a nice touch. Not many flashes around these days that don't involve stabbings or decapitation.

[Broken Saints CH 22 ACT 1]

Broken Saints

First off, let me start by saying that this movie has fantastic graphics. Really, the best I have ever seen. The things is though, I think that it could be so much more! I really just don't know how to rate a flash like this. The music that slowly goes on for minutes is okay, but I think that some voiceacting would make it a lot better, and maybe make it easier to focus on. I'm not sure why, but I really could see this a lot more as a comic strip than a flash movie. It has some motion tweens of the backgrounds, but other than that it really doesn't have any actualanimation in it. It's just that I personally this has so much more potential than what it is right now. If the series were fully animated and voiceacted, I just think that you could achieve so much more, and attract a much bigger audience to your films.

[Auf Achse]

Well done.

You've got a lot of style in this animation, and the graphics were very good too. In my honest opinion, I think you should just FBF the walk cycle. I've seen a lot of your other movies, and I think that the thing that would make the most difference in them is If you changed the walk/run cycles. But it's very well done.

AligatorHead responds:

yeah i'll try to cut down on motion tweening. motion tweenign is just a lazy way to animate. fbf is so much nicer.thanks for making me confident about choosing how to animate.

[Unreal]

Heh

I liked it, it was really good. It was kind of weird though, because it's got like the EXACT same plot of Bitey of Brackenwood, just instead of Bitey you used a bear. Other than that I really liked it, keep up the great work man!

[- Capture The Flag -]

Yeah.

That was okay, but I mean you dragged it out way too long. There was like a one second tween loop of the guy running on a flat background, and that was it. I'm not saying that what you has wasn't good, it just coulda been a lot better in my opinion.

[2d Karma]

Dude I'm Serious When I Say This

That really sucked man. All you did was draw like 50 crappy pictures, then tween one into another, and call it a movie. Anybody coulda done this in like 10 minutes.

If you want to make cool animation, it should literally be "Animation". Not this stupid shape tween crap. I mean if you have some really good art its okay, but I can't even give you that.

FiveStar responds:

it amazing how you only have on flash on newgrounds if "anybody can do it"

[The Matrix Still Has You]

It was great.

It was a great flash, don't get me wrong, but I didn't like it nearly as much as the first one. I think the idea just got kinda stale. Overall its still a awesome flash though, keep it up.

[Little Fight - version 2]

Alright

That wasn't that bad. But, here's a few things that would make it better.

Tune up the frame rate. Im guessing that the frame rate was 12 fps. In a stick fight movie, it should be at least twice that so that the motions don't seem as jerky and you can see the moves.

Also, maybe have it stop animation at the end, and then have a replay button.

Other than that that was pretty cool man. Keep it up.

[Breakout 1.2]

A Classic Never Dies

I liked how the animation was all cruddy and B&W because that added to feel of those classic games such as pong and space invaders.
