ArneTheTurtle's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Child]

Practice makes perfect.

Keep working at it, your style is good and you have a great imagination, but let's face it, you're not a flash artist yet. You would benefit a lot from making your characters movements a bit less obviously tweened, and adding a bit more flexibility. You can use "easing" to slow down or speed up the beginings and endings of tweens. This can help a lot to make movements look organic, something that really sets the best flash artists apart from the rest. the"EASE" slider can be found on the properties window when a tweened keyframe is selected.

Best of luck!

[Evil Josh & Billy: Ep. 05]

Yet again!

I haven't actually reviewed your past Evil J&B episodes, but I've loved every one of them. This one was great as well, it's all in the style. Keep it up!

[The Child That Smelt Odd]

Absolute Genius

I must say that your series have been rather disturbing but artistically appreciable since you started posting flash, this short (heh, short) is the best I've yet seen. I couldn't agree more with the underlying commentary, and I'm more than a little frustrated with the way censorship is coming back in vogue lately. Keep up the excellent work, I look forward to more from you. How long did this peice take by the way? I'm working on an animation of an old Dragnet radio drama as social commentary about marajuana use, and trying to figure how much longer I'm going to be lipsyncing for =]

[Clay Killing Frenzy 2]

Nice.

Very nice work here, Must have taken forever to get all of those frames. Looks like you were able to pull off a good 25 FPS or so. Also, the rotoscoped special effects were fun =) Reminded me of old scifi movies where they scratched the film to create lightning.
Plot would be a great addition.

[Merry Melony ep.1]

Absolutely, Hands Down, The most Gorgeous Flash

This beats out a lot of the top 50 of all time if you ask me. My wife and I are dying to see the next bit, and it's inspired us to start collaborating on our own story in flash as well. Funny, Melony actually resembles my wife a bit =) Anyway, Gratz!

[Nick 4]

Nice, Very nice.

I guess some people don't appreciate the dry humor of frustration. Trevor's character's inability to deal with the utter confusing nature of Nick was quite well done and fun to watch. Props!

Abbot-Flash responds:

Thanks, yeah not many don't.

But regardless of them I'll continue to make mine like this, Not including my next animation BETA 4. hopefully.

[Gekido]

Very Nice.

Pay no heed to those who do not understand your medium.. That was some excellent FBF animation. My only qualm with it is that I wish there was a story behind the violence, or some semblance of a plot. I pretty much got the message up front that .. well.. he kicks ass.. and umm.. yeah, that's the story.

I hope you make more animations and the arduous task of making this one hasn't spoiled the process for you.

[Roger McLouse+Dead Spouse]

Skillfully bad.

OK, I realise that you've done a great job on the animation and voice-syncing and etc.. but seriously, .. I mean, I know newgrounds is abounding in filth.. but .... -seriously-.. Do we really need a necropheliac cartoon series????? I was unamused ;p

DrGlansworthy responds:

Necrophiliac? In which part does he have sex with her? Roger's not a necrophiliac, he and Marge stopped having sex years before she died. Even we wouldn't be so sick as to include necrophilia in our toons.
