Seawana's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Las aventuras de Mr.Coo]

Superb! Magnificent! Brilliant!

What else can I say? This is easily one of the best animations I have seen in a long time.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you were influenced by Bill Plimpton's work.

["target practice" W.W.W]

Well done.

Don't forget, "tragedy + time = comedy". A few more weeks before putting this out might have been a good idea to avoid all the people who say it's "sick".

All told though, this is far less sick than many movies submitted to newgrounds and it is definitely better animated. Good work.

[Tinman]

Superb work!

I really liked this piece. The style and art were very professional and enjoyable. I also liked the fact that no narrative was needed to tell the story. The music was super cool and fit the mood very well too. Good choice. The only thing hat bugged me, and this is nitpicky, is that the robot walked by swinging the same side arm and leg at the same time. I don't know how a biped would ever stay upright if he moved like that. But it is a robot after all, so what do I know?

BlackmarketKraig responds:

Haha! Man, I feel stupid now! :P
I KNEW something was wrong but I just couldn't put my finger on it...

Oh well, thanks for reviewing, and thanks for the 10!

[There she is!! step 2]

Astounding!

I think it is blatantly clear that this is highly professional work. Everything about the animation, character design, artistic style, music choice, story, etc is perfect. This movie has it all, and performs flawlessly. Bravo!

Oh, and I like the hot fish cameo on the moon. :-)

[My Belt]

Okay, I guess.

I think the most impressive part of this movie is the fact that you spelled "you're" correctly (unlike 95% of portal submissions). Bravo for that.

Oh, and the movie was okay too.

[A New Bunny]

Funnier than anything I've seen in a long time.

Oh my god! I was laughing so hard as I watched this I had to watch it again because I missed so much of the dialog. Holy [beep]ing [beep], that was some funny [beep]!

The thing that made this so funny is how "extreme" Buzz Bunny thinks he is, when he's really not extreme at all. Any moron can act extreme. Today's growing list of "extreme" products is really just yesterday's products with different packaging. Big whoop.

I do have one note of criticism. This movie will not be acceptable to some people until the beeps cover up everything that could be objectionable (e.g. "ass", "man yogurt", etc). I think it would probably be just as good with those bleeped out too. After all, it can be more tantalizing to conceal than to reveal.

Kudos on a job well done.

[Roof Tiling]

Nice.

As usual, you have succeeded in completely creeping me out. :-)

[Neglected Sky]

Pretty good.

This is a good movie. I enjoyed the story and the art. Overall, it's fun, energetic and I liked it much more than most FBFs where there's no story at all. The style was not completely FBF and used a fair number of tweens. Still, I'm sure this took a decent amount of time to make. Congrats on winning the "Citizens for Global Solutions Flash contest" award and making the front page.

Now for the scientific/political side of things. I did some research and found since the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution (circa 1870), through constant global burning of fossil fuels, humanity has raised the amount of CO2 in the air by about 100 parts per million. This includes billions of people driving cars, industrial pollution, and even naturally occurring forest fires. Are we really polluting so much more now? I think nuclear power is a great alternative. Hell, if it's good enough for submarines, it's good enough for me.

As for Kyoto; who here that touts or dismisses it has actually read the whole thing? I'd bet very few.

[Rebel Burger Ep.1]

Fantastic work!

I'm really surprised. Here we have a movie without any hardcore sex, violence, profanity, or heavy metal music. It has a very quiet, subtle storyline and yet it's on the front page with an appropriately high score. I guess it just goes to show that the 13 year olds haven't completely taken over NG. Thank God.

I really enjoyed this movie. I do get the feeling that something sinister is going on with Steve, but it might just be the pencil-thin handlebar moustache that's throwing me off. Hmmmm.

The writing and voice acting is very well done, which is a hard task to accomplish. I also liked the music very much. It set a good tone for the movie.

I'm not a huge fan of the pointy-nose Anime style, but you did a good job on the art without overdoing it. The animation was smooth and quite appropriate for the mood. Very nice.

Overall, I just really enjoyed watching this movie. It really felt like part of something big that you already have in the can. I look forward to the next installment with great anticipation.

["Porcelain"]

Superb work!

First of all, I'm so sorry for your loss. This music video is a fantastic tribute to your father.

Right from the start I was hooked. The music choice is fitting and the animation is timed perfectly to it. It's a favorite song of mine too. The artistic style is clean, simple, and works very well. The addition of a few rack focus effects really added to the piece.

I also really liked the ending. Leaving the camera in the scene gave the finale a real sense of permanence (which it obviously has in reality as well).

Overall, this is great, great work. Well done!
