Seawana's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Huevoasesino]

Eggtastic!

Very cool!

Although it probably wouln't hurt to have a Closed Captioning option for folks who don't speak Spanish (?) and who want to know what the characters are saying, I think this movie is great without it.

The art is top notch, the animation is smooth and clean. The music and sound effects are right on the money.

Well done!

[La Vida Del Fuego]

Meh.

This movie wasn't overly exciting and the plot didn't make a lot of sense. I also didn't see much of the frame by frame animation you touted in your authors comments. This leaves me to believe you meant non-tweened animation.

The sounds and music are okay, but nothing to write home about.

Overall ... just kinda blah I guess.

[Zomborg Apocalypse - 002]

Wow! Cool zombies!

Er, Zomborgs. Sorry.

Hey, great movie. I really like the smooth animation and simple artistic style. The music fit very well and really added to the mood.

I wish this episode had been a little longer. It really left me hanging. Of course a good cliffhanger is important, so maybe a little more action before that would have been good.

Overall, I really enjoyed the results of your work. Keep it up!

thanks! a friend once told me...
"within lies the ultimate hatred burning blast..."
i didn't understand it at the time.
but now, thanks to all the NG support,
i finally get it.

[Space Hunters]

Well done.

Good movie! It had a good plot, nicely done action sequences, and good music to boot. You definitely have talent that you should continue to tap.

A few suggestions:

1. I think you might want to use the ease in/ease out options to make your animations a little more smooth.

2. The voice acting was pretty well done, but would be more believable if it had more emotion in it.

Overall, I really liked this movie. Keep up the great work.

[The Rescue - Remix DVD]

A superb piece!

I said it before and I'll say it again, "Wow!"

I really liked the first version of The Rescue and this "DVD" is even better. Of course, the animation and art are still fantastic. The story is very good as well. You can really tell that this movie was thoroughly planned ahead of time. It shows.

The movie makes for a great music video and the extras are a very cool addition. I like the preliminary sketches compared to the finished art. Many Flash "developers" could take a hint from this. This is how it's really done, folks.

This is professional grade work. I hope to see more.

[New Karaoke]

Uh ...

I guess that would have been a lot more interesting/funny if there was a little more lead in to what the heck was happening.

I take it the point was that we were supposed to sing along with the words, right? There was no animation per se, so I just kept waiting for something to happen ... then it was over. Jumping right into the joke like that really made this movie seem only half thought out. Next time add a more thorough explanation or a mini intro first.

Also a replay button or even just a "the end" text would be helpful so that viewers don't sit there waiting for something else to happen when the movie is actually over.

[The Yearbook (Part I)]

Fantastic!

This movie has it all: excellent animation, superb art and style, great cinematography. And of course, you can't beat Lords of Acid and Peter Gun.

All I can say is "Wow."

On to part two ...

[Foamy Card Cult Meeting]

What? I can't listen that fast.

Uh, I couldn't understand most of what the green eyed squirrel was saying. I guess he was supposed to be off his medication or something, but honestly I just couldn't decipher the majority of what he had to say.

Still, pretty good otherwise.

[For What little it matter]

Sad, but still happy (?)

Wow! I really liked this piece.

You did a great job with the emotion of it. The choice of music really works well and the speed of the animation fits nicely with the mood.

I am also very glad this was not another "I got dumped and then shot myself/someone else" movie. Kudos on a movie with a story that has a good ending.

[In Pursuit of Physics]

Sweet.

Very well done, guys. The camera angles were good, the action was pretty well done, the dialog was okay, the 3D fit very nicely, and the math explanation was easy to understand.

Overall, a great job on this piece. I hope to see more.
