Michelangelo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MSC Part 2]

6/10: not too shabby

Another great ep from you adn I'm glad that you agreed with me on the horrible overused sonic and mario sprites.
As always this was really pleasing to the eye. The use of metal slug sprites and detailed backgrounds is just so cool of concept.
The violence was nice, but I really expected more from this one. If it's a sequel, shouldn't out exceed the original? I know you continued the story, but action and violence was sparse. It would of been cool to see a whole war of metal slug sprite battling it out to the end.
The music was fitting, but got old fast, especially when you have it in the menu screen and the cartoon.
I did however like how you did some character bios to let on more about the characters in the story.
3/5
Would of been better if there was more action one screen, come on, it's metal slug!

[Legendary Tales 1-4]

6/10: not too shabby

Damnit!
I thought that this would be another ep of LF, but noOOo!!! It was just a collection of random shorts, so I'll base my review on those four.
1: Cooking with Sal wasn't that funny. It just had sal pretending to be martha stewart, but failed to over exceed her, meaning that it would of been nice if he was actually doing something funny that would'nt of been unexpected of martha stewart to do.
2: Backseat Gaming was boring. It didn't have anything interesting or new, but did have the adorable Kerri. It would been better if it showed what game they were playing, but in a spoof on it.
3: Metal Gear Tech Support was the best one yet! It was accurately done to mimic otacon, snake, and the codec screen perfectly. The voicework fitted nicely with the characters and added to what personallity they had. My only problem was that it got old real fast. It was at least 5 min when it should of been less since all you see is them talking on the codec screen forever. At first it was hilarious, especialy if you have played metal gear solid 2, but eventually got stale.
4: Lastly and least is Dance Dance Dance. A parody of the dance dance revolution games at the arcade. The style of the animation in this one was cool when it had multiple screens going over each other as kerri was breaking up the dance moves, but when ark got on, it just showed how muched he sucked at it. It was funny to see ark at least attempt it measily, so at least this one was humourous.
Overall: It was a nice collection, but failed to be as cool as your other submissions, especially all your pie. I know how stated that this isn't another LF ep, so don't excpect it to be as good as one.
3/5
Animation, graphics, style, and voicework was the highlight, but don't expect this to be a hit.
You still kick ass LegendaryFrog and you are the best animator on this site.

10/10: perfection incarnate

Don't listen to what the last reviewer, haub pappa, said. He obviously doesn't know a good movie when it hits him and he is more into the senseless, random, incoherent, crude, mudane, unorigninal, uncreative, crappy material on this site. Violence and action is a good thing and I'm not affended by it, but this movie is more then that. All because the movie is in a different language doesn't mean you have to start droping f-bombs all becuase it's not your cup of tea, you discriminating sob!!! Also, I think it's portugese and not spanish hauba pappa! Anyway, despite a few dumbasses on this site, this was an excellent peice of art. The series has been a blast and I enjoyed every moment of it. The last episode had an intense climax, while this ep. had an unsurpring and unexpected ending. It's sad to see this go, but I'm preety shure it won't be the last time we see some work from you meguel.
5/5
Final kudos,

7/10: good job

Let me start off that I'm not a big fan of sprite movies. Sprites just seem out of place when you aren't playing as one of them and flash animation is soOOoo much suited for looks, but the second this movie started, I was interested. It didn't use the overly done nintendo or sega characters (main ones), but metal slug!!! I think metal slug isn't an eye sore as much as the other sprites are and much more appealing in style.
The graphics were awesome especially using detailed backgrounds and the use of sprites. I just wish that you didn't use that one sprite background in space.
The violence was top notch and gory, nuff said.
Sound seemed sparse however and the little voice work I heard sounded ridiculous.
The story seemed interesting, but nothing much happened to keep my interest for the sequels. It was a little incoherent and didn't have too much detail or information except for the fact that it was an intournament of metal slug characters doing...something?
3/5
Use more detialed backgrounds with sprite characters, a very clever and unique idea you came up with. Actually seperates itself from the other countless and unoriginal sprite movies. If I have to see sonic and mario one more time, who knows what I'll do!!!

Hahahah, thanks man. Yea those mario and sonic sprite movies kind of get on my nerves. Especially the ones that are all pixelated and use outstretched backgrounds.

6/10: not too shabby

I think you caught the whole idea of bill and ted perfectly.
The graphics were very professional and was top notch. The animation was nicely done though wasn't intensive.
The humor seemed bland and uncreative, but that is coming from bill and ted though.
The voicework was awesome, not the talent (none of course), but the quality of it.
The presentation was overall good, but the humor wasn't that appealing.
3/5

8/10: booyah!

That was really slick and styish. You have your own unique way of animation and graphics, which really shows in your cartoon. The only thing I didn't like was how simple the artillery shells looked. Not that that was a really big problem, but kind of stood out in a bad way. Liked I mentioned before, not a big deal.
The musi was fitting and there really didn't need to bee voicework because there was bearly any mouth animation. Also the music does capture the mood perfectly and voices would of stood out from the brillance.
Violence seemed to be okay, but I think what was already in there had a few people thinking that was morbid, so maybe it was a good idea to keep it down.
It was short and nothing reaaly stood out except your unique style.
4/5
Great none the less!

10/10: perfection incarnate!!!

You had me fooled there for a sec. Yesterday's submission didn't say the usual "tommorrow's episode", so I thought I would have to wait for you to make the next one, but obviously that is out of the question. People don't seem to understand that you made these episodes a head of time and are submitting them day by day for our visual entertainment. Don't listen to that one guy's review about this being a imposter becuase this is obviously the real thing. It's was submitted under your account and the cartoon itself is a no brainer that it came from you.
This episode was the best ever becuase thier was a unexpected event and the climax was intense. You did a great job of ending it right just before it happened, leaving me saying noOOoo!!!
Too bad that it's the last episode tommorrow, but like all great things in life, they all come to an end. It was a blast while it happened and I hope this get's into the series and collection section because it is very deservent of that place.
5/5

6/10: not too shabby

Very intriguing.
The graphics was amazing, especially the background, but the animation seemed choppy at times.
The voicework in the beginning seemed horrible, but got better towards the end. Not that the acting was horrible, but there wasn't really any though, but it was hard to understand them. So it was hard to understand what was really going on, but it probabaly will reveal itself in future chapters.
3/5: this is a good score, but what kept it from going any higher was the sound quality and the fact that nothing much happened to be amazing. Though it did pique my interest.
The angel looked badass!
