Dunso's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Madness: Dedication]

It was very good actually, the originality wasn't top notch of course and certainly didn't get much better by adding meme faces, but the reason this is not at all going to be a negative review is because the movement and creativity in kills was great. The movement was fluid but that's not the point, it was creative, it used it's surroundings to execute moves. The kills weren't same shit either, they were interesting to watch which surprisingly is lacking in a lot of madness clips, that's what made this a good one. If you must go, from what I can gather in the author comments and credits, it's a good note to end on.

Ellvis responds:

yeah I rushed a litlle so animation looks bad a little. I really like your review thanks :)

[Pokemon Satire Version]

This review field makes me lose faith in this godforsaken web page. This badly needed to be expressed and you did so with the appropriate aggression, in concept sound and artwork.

For the wonderful wonderful people filling the space below me I want to say that the reason you can't see the humor in this is probably because you're the kind of ass hat enjoying the kind of shit this movie targets in the first place. Go back to fucking YouTube and never return.

Now where did I put that rope, I think I'll go hang myself.

Blordow responds:

haha hey man don't hang yourself! I still have faith in humanity, but only slightly

[Madness: Counter Strike]

Nice concept, a little bit choppy, could use some of your own sprites, but somehow still set apart because it does things differently.

However, here is some tips for what you need to improve next time:
In the timeline, place the sounds a little bit before the action to sync them. Also set them to "stream" and make sure all the sounds are set to this or it will bug out. Google "V-Cam" because I can see that when you zoom in and such right now you are actually making everything bigger, which while being a great effort that you should be commended for doing anyway, and a V-Cam is much easier to use. I think you could use a higher fps too, somewhere between 28-33. You'll have to add more frames but it will be hell of a lot smoother. I'm not sure whether you do this already but if you don't; insert a lot of layers, one for every body part on every guy, and it will be much easier to animate smoothly.

Rick15 responds:

Thanks for the info
But, in this movie i'm use V-cam

[Madness E collab 2]

Quite frankly, every ounce of this was generic. Generic music, some good animations that were ultimately pointless in the long run due to lack of context (this being an issue in all collabs), some seemingly easy things remaining unfixed and unpolished due to the fact that it's "just a collab clip" or "just a test", lack of originality on many fronts just running about doing the same kills over and over. There were also very little custom sprites and when something did deviate it was usually not very well made either. The overall concept of a collab like this hasn't been interesting or original for about three years. It's bland to the point of almost being a parody of itself.

In conclusion:
Concept 0/5 (Unoriginal)
Animation 3/5 (Unpolished)
Art 1/5 (Lack of well-made custom sprites)
Sound 2/5 (OK music fit the mood but extremely generic + Same old sound effects, no complaints)
Overall impression 1/5 (Forgettable)

Final score: 2/5

yes... yes.... yes...

[Adrellia Village: School]

Well, the characters seem a bit uninspired, you could have done atleast something to set them apart from the Cyanide & Happiness characters. The last animation would have been better left out since it greatly reduces the overall impression you get when you watch the movie. All in all should have waited a few days to get this out and polished the living shit out of it.

It must be a slow day in the portal today with this getting Daily Third. No offense but if you had polished this thing better and had some original characters I would have thoght you deserved it.

MistyE responds:

Interesting. Lots of people say that my characters bear great resemblance to Cyanide & Happiness, but it'd be weird to change them significantly since I've already produced 40+ episodes with them. I'm not sure what to change other than possibly add shading, shadowing or at least some sort of distinguishing quality.

No offense taken, thank you very much for your review!

[Contemplate Life]

Good.

At first I loved every second and really thought you were about to get to a solid point, then you wen't all Jesus freak on me. Sorry man I just don't share these views at all, I liked the animation, I liked the music, but I can't ignore the message.

nahtanojmal responds:

:D
Sorry but I can't ignore the message either, I had to put it in.
Thanks for your honesty

[Madness; short short]

Ehh.

Seemed like it was going to really start off but then it just ended. I think cutting it short like that turned a lot of people down, including me.

Taserxx responds:

wait til' madness day, I made a better animation... thanks for commenting!

[proper technology use]

WTF

Sure the art could use some improvment but what the fuck. Zeroes and fours? It made me laugh atleast.

Horsenwelles responds:

glad i'm able to entertain SOMEONE!
