zeedox's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Rolling Along]

Simple and fun to watch

This is a good example of something that is effective because of its simplicity. It was fun to watch and try and anticipate to the beat of what the circle was going to do next and the choice of music fitted so well. I only disliked how it ended so suddenly, I thought it needed a more creative way of finishing. Good work, looks like something that would have been fun to make!

farfenwaffle responds:

Thank you! if you like simple stuff check out my other cartoons, "stuff" and "squares" They are just as musical and simple :)
I kinda wished the music didint end so suddenly either. What I should have done would be to start a new song after the other ended. I think the credit music kinda helped continue it.

[Forest]

Good Work

Colourful, somewhat relaxing and the frame by frame animation flowed really well.

[A Rhino's Stomach]

Seen half of the quirky gems, my favourite so far.

I think this is an excellent animation as it has a solid story with a start, sequence of events and ending. The characters (rhino, chimp and two parasites) were developed well. The idea of having two parasites inside that were controlling the rhino and them having quirky things such as a table, the food sign and machines is what made this story exceptional and unique. I quite liked the art and colors, even though there is plenty of room for improvement.

[Remembrance Day Sale]

Clever and Unique

Well done, you told a joke on such a serious subject in a way that was a complete surprise but also managed to not seem too offensive while doing so. For that I am impressed.

BillyNapalm responds:

I am impressed that you are impressed. Good job!

[Wild Salmon in Trouble]

Amazing

This is a memorable, top quality documentary with eye catching visuals. The information presented was interesting and important and I enjoyed watching the whole thing. This is a submission on NewGrounds that I wont forget about anytime soon.

Cavebird responds:

Thank you, zeedox!
So glad you enjoyed it!

[The Rabbit Hunt]

Great Work

I liked the humour, it wasn't hilariously funny, but it was light and cheerful. Its simplicity suited this. Your frame by frame work was awesome to watch. If I were to suggest an improvement, perhaps add another part to the knife, gun, rocket launcher sequence and speed up some parts as it felt a little slow in some scenes. That didn't stop me enjoying it though! Did you do well in your school assessment?

Olimar011 responds:

Thanx, I haven't gotten my mark back yet but I hope it'll be good.

[A Carbonwater Halloween]

Funny, and you have potential

I really like the humour in your storyline and your character designs. The use of thick and thin lines and the shading on the characters makes them look very polished. The animation and talking of your characters is a bit of a let down for your nicely drawn characters. You should put some more work into animating your characters actions, and move away from keeping the characters as only one movie clip which has been flipped or bounced around to convey movement. Find some voice actors (there is a huge amount of talent on some amateur voice acting forums) instead of using text to voice software. This will enhance the comedic impact of the funny lines the characters say. Replace the flapping of the mouths with proper lip syncing too. Also, your drawing style of using flat shapes of colour looks very clean, but it lacks detain in scenes where it is close up such as when they open the door of the house. If you included some detail on these shapes your scenes could be very impressive visually.

Fix up the animating and talking and I would be surprised if your future episodes didn't pass 4.00

[Guitar Battle]

You Rock

You should have gotten 110%!
I enjoyed the storyline. The graphics really suited this flash, and along with the audio you created a convincing guitar battle in front of a humongous crowd. I also thought that the lack of facial features on both guitarists was effective along with the storyline. I hope you get front page!

[Victor the snail]

This made me laugh out loud.

awwww..... that poor snail! I give this a vote of 5 for the fact that I actually burst out laughing while watching it. A snail with long eyelashes that nobody likes, not even his mother was just so funny and random. Can we expect more Victor the Snail episodes or was this a single tale?

zelle responds:

Why, thank you. There will be a prequel. However, since I won't have a deadline this time, the graphics will be different and essentially less crappy.

[Blockhead: Episode 10]

Funny Stuff

I had been excited all week about blockhead 10, so it really made my day to check the portal... and find this at the very top.

This episode was as funny as ever, and the ending with the turtle was brilliant. The quality of the animation and the drawing was excellent, some of the best so far. Blockhead was full of energy, and it made this flash a lot of fun to watch.

Thankyou a lot for this episode of one of my favourite flash series.
