SLUGFly's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The light of the world]

a lot of plus and minus to say about this one

1- ... I'm rather anti-christian... but I can easily put this aside and give an objective criticism on your flash. You're right, there are not enough quality christian media. Most Christian media are unprofessionally done and are pretty painful to watch, but this was good.

2- Normally I'd blam something that is just a slideshow with text, but the stained glass effect was nice and it was more than just slideshow, the presentation of images were themed in this way. Also, I could see that you did the drawings yourself (something rare in slideshow-text flashes) so you get a kudos for that.

3- In my opinion, this wasn't a good representation of Jesus' life. You only showed the most well known areas (the Beatitudes, feeding of 5000, prayer for respite and crucifixion)... I would really have liked to have seen (perhaps with a bit more energy, Jesus was far from a sleepy boring teacher) his trial in the desert, him saving Magdalene, trashing the temple... maybe this is just taste though, since these are some of his actions that I particularly enjoyed... I would love to have seen a scene where he casted the demons into pigs... but that may have been too comical for the nature of this flash

bottom line: pretty good... despite my being anti-christian I do enjoy it as a mythology and I'd love to see what you could do to try to personalize jesus and present him in a way that people can understand. (looking forward to another one: but not a slide show please)

[Nobodies Shorts #4]

great job as usual

I'm extremely disappointed in the length, but please take that as a comment since it really means "I want more"

Tomorrow's Nobodies and Decline are the only two series that I would actually consider myself a fan of on NG. Nothing to comment on technically since you guys are by far superior to what I can do (at the moment... BEWARE!!! BEWARE!!!!!)

:)

[Cleaning the streets]

I don't know

I don't really know what to say... I'm pretty dismayed at you returning ignorance with ignorance... but this was good... I liked it :)

It was pretty funny... especially when the two guys went off at the end holding hands :)

I'd like to see you make something without trying to offend a cultural group... would be much funnier I think...

LORD-CRAGGLE responds:

thats not whats happening here, chavs are evil, simple as that.

but cheers for your words, pam

[Summer Idiots...]

blaearrgh

That was cool but in my eagerness to vote and review I closed the window just before the last catapult scene!!! :(

That was pretty damn cool dude! The animation and drawings were... dodgy... but the jokes and gags were great! :) I hope you make more... should try to work a bit on your drawing and animating skill though.

ItsyBitsy responds:

lol yeah, i am practicing my drawing, but i think it would be easier with one of them drawy pad thingys.

[PharaohKek]

I liked it

Very nice flash... nothing to directly criticize. It's not often that someone can make a cute character that isn't retarded in its cuteness.

good job. :)

[The Great Suicide]

I'm confused

my brain tells me to blam this... but the jelly lodged in my brain tells me to pass it... once again the jelly wins! I voted a 3. It was funny in a weird kind of way... were the same story (ie. the same events) to have better animation this could be fiverized by the majority I think.

1- stop tooting your own horn dude... I doubt that I'm alone in assuming the worst whenever a flash starts with something similar to "this flash is awesome"
2 - check your grammar... how does a film have "such"?
3 - work on your animation a bit more... and drawing style, use references such as photos and Stikfas (they rock)
4 - don't give up, suicide could indeed lead you on a glorious adventure... but then you couldn't make more flashes :) ... and you'd end up getting shot anyway by some dude on a beach with the same bad taste in fashion.

[Fag Bodyspray]

lmao

I expected this to be a retarded single frame flash...

great job!!! :)

and yeah, what the guy before me said about lighting is a good point.

[B&T Ep. 01 - Comedy Gold]

lmao!!

that was unexpected! :)

pretty warped sense of humor... punks and hippies seem to go together so well, seems odd at a glance but really they're the same thing from two different eras.

nice series, I like it (but the theme song, as stated, really is shit... perhaps you should consider a rewrite for that... )

Bob-The-Cheese responds:

if the themesong isn't shit, then the rest doesn't look half as good...

Good work o picking up the hippy connection... I wasn't actually sure that anythign there really gave it away too well...

[The Mario Supreme Journey]

you're retarded!!

and for your retardedness you get a 4 :) if you had broken the 2 minute barrier you may have got a 5, that was pretty damn cool!

the voice over was great too :)

[Drawing Contest #3 : FFA]

oooh... we get to vote this time :)

I'm tempted to vote for player 5... but that wouldn't be abiding by the rules and wouldn't be very helpful to you for part 4. I vote player 1. Although, for the humor aspect, player blue (3?) was the coolest...

lol, that's a dragoon! imo it would have been funnier if red hadn't have stated it... if instead red just said something like "wtf is that?". Anyone who knows what a dragoon is would have recognized it without being told, and I laughed as soon as I realized that was what she was drawing.

These are pretty damn cool! Although I'm quite certain that you are all players, watching these really gives you the feeling that you're watching real interaction, far more than when watching a cartoon.

great job... you have reached the level of fandom I do believe... and with only XXX more experience points you will start to gain followers (ie. copycats and idea thieves) who may or may not outdo you, but all the same you will have started another trend. Great job and I love it :)

ForestXion responds:

yaa =)
thanks!
