Michelangelo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Resident Evil Outtake]

well thought out

though the art style was simplistic, it was
entertaining to see all familiar characters and
scenerios from the series, well, 3 games of them
anyway.

most jokes consisted of simple blunders, while
other, somewhat inside jokes, were more amusing.
such as the Merchant being left for inevitable
death, Krauser playing with his knife too much,
or Ada miss throwing the rocket to kill Saddler,
which were all ironically humorous. hell, the RE4
skits were the best.

i wish you could do the whole series, because i can
imagine it being done. then again, it might of been
repititive otherwise.
score: ***

HCF responds:

Thanks for your opinion, we are currently working on a REOuttake2, and hopefully we will have more (and better) jokes then the usual "someone falls over", the 2nd one will feature RE2 RE3 and REZero

[PPGZ in a Nutshell]

anime sucks now with all it's cliches

i wish kind of that you made fun of the original
ppg, just for the fact that they lack opposable
thumbs or even digits for that matter. though seeing
the comparison between your parody and the youtube
video is horrifyingly similiar, keeping in mind, that i
saw your flash first.

also, in your credits, i wouldn't say that your animation
is lazy, you were just mimicing the anime style of
cartoons, which 90% consists of lip synching or stills.
score: ****

Wonchop responds:

This is lazy compared to what I can do. It's a combination of me not being good at anime drawings and being in a flash slump.

[Giant Enemy Crab Battle]

a under dog :)

you know a flash like this is a under dog, when
it doesn't have a daily award, but deserves the
attention to be displayed on the front page.
turn ons [sexually? lol] were the energetic sense
of motion and gesture styled art and animation.
a rare style that is very appealing, but is usually
turned down, due to it's rough manner of contour.
inside video game references or jokes were the
highlight [also the begining scene of an insinuated
issue of having actual crabs XD], but i wasn't amused
by the cliched amounts of use of looney toon noises,
which were kind of obnoxious. though slightly hinders
the overal, impressionable charm it has.
score: ****

Steven-M responds:

Underdog, eh? Now there's a term I like the sound of. Thanks for the comments!

[Dragon Angel Beta Teaser]

go alamus!

like i have to repeat myself, but your easily
one of the best flash artist here. though most
viewers will read my comment and not realize
how much time you have put into this animation
over the past year, plus im sure all that animation
learning and practicing will be put to good use when
the final version is released. just remember to take
your time, since rushing a project will ruin the end
quality, regardlessly of how long it may take or how
much work.

anyway, ill keep an out of it :)
score: *****

Alamus responds:

Hey there Loco. hehe, thanks for your support. I hope I do a good job just to make you happy (and to make my portfolio awesome. :D )

[-MASS-]

solid message and well made

a very thoughtful way of putting it, and im
sure the symbolisim is pretty easy to understand
for most of the viewers. it seems it can also be
said for most other forms of entertainment and
artist. that too much publicty and marketing of
products, overall ruins the original creativity and
unique-ness of others creations. i also couldnt help,
but to notice the strong resemblance of the hate bunny,
and that of foamy and his rants...curious if that was
more then a common similiarity or not.

Thanks for the very
long
review,
sir.

[Going Down to Newgrounds]

average

humor just wasnt original, especially
pointing out the obvious common faults
about ng; such as noobs and madness
clones, which have been addressed in
other parodies. the efffort put into the
song should be accounted for, even
though its obnoxious country.
score: **
MJ

stoners-lunchbox responds:

Obnoxiously country? Now that's not fair...

Country music was around before techno and dance were... Don't you people understand anything about music?

*groan* forget it... Anyway, the humour in the song was not funny for you. That's understandable, but it is true that there's too many madness tributes out there. Personally i find madness cool, but i see at least one madness tribute getting past judgement every day and they're always the same kind of action... It gets boring after a while...

Then there's people who release something new everytime they make a flash and they're the ones with a crappy score and a whole lot of hate mail in their review box? That sucks, don't you think?

Anyway, thanks for the feedback, but really... Try being on my side of the screen and tell me what you told me...

[Zyn:1]

solid

animation was great and the fighting
enjoyable; however, the character
designs were bland, but its obvious
that some thought were put into their
creations none the less. music was fitting
and it wouldnt hurt to go for another round.
score: ***
MJ

Min-T-Fresh responds:

Since it began as a practice I made the characters very simple and easy to draw in order to focus on the animation itself. Thus no shadows and such on the characters either. As I get better in the animation aspect I can focus more on details.

[Chamber Of Seasons]

not too shabby

how can you seriously take spring seriously?
lol, nice to see humor was thrown in. im hoping
there will be more crazy, megaman type powers
in possible itterations. your style of vector-esque
animation is always smooth and solid voicework
too btw; well made together overall.
score: ***
MJ

RubberNinja responds:

Thanks for the nicely worded review.

[Whitmore: H'ween Special]

not too shabby

quite the bizzare sense of humor you
have...though i find it strangely appealing.

nice way of bringing back a dead series
for the time of halloween, how spooky.
score: ***
MJ

EdibleCastle responds:

ah yeah well.. its just a one off special coz i always fancied making something for halloween. seemed like a good solution.

[All NG Fads Die!!! 3!!!]

so-so

uh, i never realize barney was fad on
this site? as for a collab with a horribly
strewn together idea, most of the artists
skills were unimpressive. except for the
one by topz. his skill in recreating dan
paladins animation and fluid character
movements were amazing. which makes
the pale comparison between the other
contributions more obvious.
score: **
MJ

MACception responds:

Hmm...okay...

If i had more to say, i would. But i don't so i cant.
