VelvetDarkRocks's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[GunChest]

I personally don't see what's so good about this. It was a cool movie for the fight scene, but the rest did seem like a pretty big nothing to me. The game was a cinch, but the graphics were decent. The animation seemed fairly smooth, but really there wasn't alot to this movie. I would give it as much credit as everyone as is giving it, but that's just my opinion. It's promising, that's for sure, but this is more of a teaser than a movie. Not a great deal of the plot was revealed in this, but I hope you can pull out another one soon.

GunChest responds:

VelvetDarkRocks,
Yeah, it was much of a teaser, the movie is on it's way with more to reveal! Hang in there and visit GunChest often.

Hey, glad to see you're still alive McFretN.

This was a seriously awesome movie. Absolutely amazing camera angles and graphics, smooth animation and a kick-ass plot. This was definitely one of the better movies on Newgrounds, and I'd say your greatest work yet but an easy longshot. The scene with the guy in the cockpit kind of ruined it though, the graphics were less than the standard the rest of the movie set.

The ending definitely ruined alot of it though. It was built up to such kickass action, but that was kind of lame as a conclusion. Just something about his accent and the way he said it so straightfoward, and the obvious.. Eh it pretty much ruined the end but it was still really awesome.

Nicely done McFretn. You still get a sweet 10/10.

McFretN responds:

You wanted the cruiser to blow up right? :) I didnt want it to end the way everyone is expecting

[Birth of J. Rocketfingers]

Johnny just didn't look like Johnny. Other than that, it was really quite funny lol. Sure, 20 seconds long, but it was pretty good in the one idea of being drawn, someone didn't like it, and he kicked their ass. You just gotta love that badass attitude.

Nice work, file-size was a bit big, but it was cool all the same. Not a bad tribute, nicely done.

TomSka responds:

I made it big. The song doesn't end ya see.

I did that because when I watched a movie with that song in it I just wanted to keep listening to it.

So I hope this has enlightened someones life.

Oh don't mind me, just thought I'd say hello.

Sadoke responds:

okay, hello to you too :p

[Light VS. Dark Cecil 1]

Hey, I didn't watch this, but I read that review, and that guy was a jerk. So I voted not helpful. And then I noticed you replied, and you replied to a bunch of assholes out there, and I've decided you're cool. I'm really sorry this isn't constructive at all, it's nothing like me, but don't let a bunch of low-lives get you down. Score of nearly 3, I helped it get just a little bit higher. Good luck with future productions, have a nice day.

Don't worry about it, my animations suck, they have the right to flame it, right? Thanks.

[Zelda: Heroic Rage 5]

I'm not sure anybody's that co-ordinated in a fight against such impossible odds. After Ganon was blinded, why did he have his eyes when Link was kicked through the building? When Link was on the floor after the fight, it seems you rushed the graphics a bit there. That's pretty much it for the faults, besides Zelda. Lol sorry there's something about the way you've drawn her I don't quite find meets the standard of the rest of your movie. It's awesome though.

The plot, now, is amazing. It's hard to show in a flash movie, but the "About the movie" really helped to. And I'm 100% of the way with you on the whole kiss thing, but they didn't show any form of affection towards eachother during the actual Ocarina game, so yeah it does work out a bit. I loved it though. It was tremendous. Most beautiful job on this one, you deserve the praise everyone's giving you, including me, and I'm glad it got on the front page.

I hope whatever happens with your family works out, and take care.

SolidSacketh responds:

Thanks a whole lot for the review. I appreciate the feedback. I will try hard at being a good dad and husband...sounds like quite an adventure in itself. I still want to make more zelda movies for cool people like u though.

[Bob the Ball - Episode 2]

Lol, you really made Billy a retard. I loved it how you brought everyone back in, but Billy's retard voice was a bit much. Too much retard, too little Billy lol. I think I preferred it when you didn't put voices, but lol the gags in this one were hilarious. Fantastic work as usual, lol I loved Billy running the best. Lol, I'm listening to it now, I can't stop laughing. Great work!

~VelvetDarkRocks~

PS: Randy slept with Billy's Mom?! Or did I misinterpret!
PPS: Nearly all 10's! That's something so rare from me it's not funny. If only interactivity... Bah, great work!

mlaskaris responds:

Thanks for the 10's!

Yep, that whole "accidental" scene was set up to hint that Randy *may* be Billy's father (or he thinks he is). I don't have a definite answer, though.

[Half Decade War Trailer]

Loved it! Being a fan of Runescape, I can honestly say that this is the greatest (and... Well second, yes there is another, about a clan called "The Wilderness Guardians") fan tribute I have ever seen.

You know the history well enough, what with The Mages of Gower, and the words fit so well with the perfect music! Absolutely wonderful, though even the graphics matching Runescape could have done a bit of work. Nevertheless, brilliant, rather smooth animation, a few minor typos, but nothing important.

I loved it how you gave them horses and the new weapons, making the combat more realistic. My favourite scene was when we overlooked the settlement, but I know I've seen this before. The same movie basically, but different scenes and writing.... Hm, I'll find it somewhere, but great work with this roduction, and I really do look forward to seeing the full movie if you ever make it.

~VelvetDarkRocks, aka Lord Xin on Runescape~

Syrsly responds:

Hey, Xin. I'm here to tell you that Arion (creator of THDW) is releasing chapter one of The Half Decade War very soon! It can't be put on NewGrounds because it's well over 5mb in filesize, but it'll be listed on my site ASAP.

[C.Falcon Meets Josh Bedn]

Dn't listen to kristof88, he hasn't ever made a flash movie. He has no idea how hard it is. Even though you probably whipped this up in an hour, it pretty much sucks anyway. I'm not usually one for negative reviews, but this is the type of flash that should most definitely be blammed without hesitation from everyone who happens to find it. I really hate these half-assed cartoons designed to get a cheap laugh with crappy graphics all about nothing, porn or beating the crap out of random people. Really grinds my nerves.
