S-K's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic Epilogue Full Movie]

Not using linkin park is a good thing... Seriously

Linkin Park is overated and have been used so much the songs have lost nearly all meaning, so you instantly got yourself an extra 2 points by not using it.

I remember seeing this a long time ago but incomplete, so congrats to you for finishing it. The story concept is so fanfiction fueled you could cut it with a knife, but you can't argue with the technical skill on display.

P.S. for an equal amount of entertainment check out the other reviews since Sonic has one of the most varied fanbases ever, from stable human beings to obsessives and course the generic "omg furry! GTFO! *goes to look at a secret obsession of their own*"

[MK vs DCU]

=/ hmmm...

I sense some fanboys at work getting this first place for dailys but I'm not gonna dwell on it too much. My main criticism here apart from the fact you apparently used other peoples sprite edits without permission (although I'm not sure if using the work of something that was an edit of something else to begin with counts) is your special effects. Most of them looked like they were cropped badly so the glowing effects look cut out with bits missing.

If you fix that and found a way to make the sprites themselves look smoother, then you could be entering into the realms of the best of the best sprite animators, along with the likes of Proxicide and Alvin Earthworm

[Fallen Angel Ep. 1 (Pt3)]

dayum...

This has a staggering amount of detail with just the explosions alone, everything about this was clearly planned out beforehand. All the people saying this should have been one movie seem to be missing that each part is between 8 and 12 megs, not everyone on the Internets has instant loading pages and 1gig+ ram guys =P

I can kind of guess this is going to become some action heroine cliche series, but if the detail is this high it's forgivable. The real question is how on earth can you top this much detail in just the first episode alone in the world war III scenes.

[YAAFM 14: John McCain]

'Pollution' A-trane? you mean politician right?

I'm glad this series isn't dead, especially now flash has a decent video plugin, which although adds no real work on your part it does make the quotes funnier when they're heard straight from the source.

I can't comment too much on American politics but I can say any jokes involving religion or politics is going to have endless 'OMG CONTROVERSIAL WHY U DO THIS?!' posts, still as long as you're not twisting the truth there's nothing wrong with that I guess.

[TF2 2 shorts]

Short but sweet indeed

As was already said there's certainly potential here, I'd go as far to say in fact that this is what a TF2 collab would be like, only about 10 times bigger.

[Shinukoto!]

WTF? lol

On a technical level this was well put together, but wow that was random and quite possibly the cutest suicide animation you will ever see ladies and gentlemen. I'm kinda lost for what else to say really XD

[LongCat's Song]

*insert generic 4chan fanboy with aids quote here*

All you newbs shut the hell up already, if it was stolen it wouldn't be on the frontpage would it? =P

As for the movie anything 4chan related is pretty hard to rate, personally I know about it but since they have some of the most obscure pop culture jokes ever it makes it much harder to rate based on humour, so I think I'll stick with animation quality.

All I can say in that department is that it was so so really, most of it just had no real detail to it, you could even see the join lines of cast members on long cat which ruined the effect for me D: just more attention to details is needed next time I guess. If you think I'm being harsh just compare this movie to the 4chan movies by NCH then you'll get what I mean.

Okk responds:

I agree that the graphics could be tighter. I'll try to be a bit less sloppy in future projects. NCH set a pretty high standard to maintain, though.

[Sonic Shorts: Volume 4]

Note to self... don't watch bits in advance... x.x

I was in a unique position this time because I saw a lot of submissions before the final product (mainly cacti and yuski's parts) Bitey was totally random ( a flash character appearing in a video game parody? Talk about a reversal lol)

What happened to an "unknown release date" for this barely a week ago anyway? Sorry but having seen their parts beforehand took away a lot of any impact this had for me I guess, Flash Twister came close to saving it because you can never mock sonic 360 enough, but the jokes generally just seemed too weak. If I was in your position I would stop making these at part 10 at the most, especially if the jokes don't improve.

Imo a good rule of thumb is if a joke could be any character and they just threw sonic in it to be accepted into the collab (breaking arms, farting and bumping into things in this case I guess) why do they need to sonic? All those gags could be anyone and it sorta eliminates the whole point of being a Sonic short, just compare the jokes in this to the previous editions most of them are on a different level and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks so (handsomewarrior not included because he thinks sonic collects coins lolz).
