HighDefinition's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[DragonSpawn Trailer]

pretty good trailer..

nice selective background audio track... brought a sense of anticipation and looked appealing.... looked like some form of vampire ? i liked the brief successions of the text telling the storyline... made it 'fast' paced.. the pre-loader is pretty darn stylish too, good job on that... it was pretty repeatative but i know it's only supposed to be a preview...maybe if the animation of him running with his arms was faster ? it would suit the upbeat movie pace.. and the shadow work is nice, characters are drawn okay... but the last scene with his wings... might wanna add like a cool looking background behind it, preferably darker.. well that's what i think, but good overall! nice work

dslmodem responds:

I originally had a dark looking castle in the background at the end, but then you couldn't see his wings, so I made it light, and it looked crappy, so I just cleared it and made it straight white. I'll work in it later. thanks for taking the time to review though, you input is much appreciated.

[Cletus the Fetus ep 1]

a fresh, funny new series... nice

hehe.. got to love the randomness... the father wasn't all to happy about that guy doing 'something' with his daughter haha... what was the go with the intro ? you had a folk rap happenin' lol nice...i thought he was just gonna' jump around the screen through the whole flash but i was pleased to see the following scene heh...'oww his hurting my ovaries' heh.. good, fresh series, your drawings are pretty good but your animation was pretty simple, but smooth.. nice sound haha, graphics are niceee - looking forward to seeing the next series installment, good job

[(junk)Madness: The Camera]

nice short.. hehe

lol that thing at the end.. where get killed ? what the hell are the objects ? they look like ovals... haha funny stuf.. and the voices like, a bit soft - if you were going for the 'god damn' effect it would of been loud and said with vulgar emphasis... but it did make it funny - animation was smooth, graphics and drawings were neat 7 simple... good quickie, nice work

[ADDAMS FAMILY!]

nice-looking quickie

hehe a nice, funny and entertaining quickie.. nicely drawn characters! and nice touch on the colour and shades as well... the sound elements were pretty good, graphics are smooth as, but ya' need to lip-sync the carol song more.. but a nice quick preview indeed! can't wait for the release of your next flash installment

[The Loss]

Compelling.. wow

This was compelling, divine, and a privelage to watch. The animation is simple, and yet remarkable.. so too is the application and blending of the colours on the ever-so-smooth graphics you presented, with such exceptional sound elements that were all together in sync and conveyed empathy accordingly. You know you have done a great job, if you are able to get the viewing audience to empathise the ordeal being experienced in the flash presentation. I like this flash not only just for what it is, but for what it represents. The abstract meanings presented are very genuine, and intimate... powerful, yet inspiring. This is truly a work of marvel. Well done you should be proud.

[ROCK'n'Roll]

decent

hehe... didn't really notice the background until the red 'slash' effect... what's finch by the way ? lacking in length indeed, none the less the little animation featured was pretty well drawn and animated, need's a storyline - the music is funky as well but it's probably just a short, and you did it on purpose becaus' you are probably working on an upcoming flash project... in that case, look forward to your next flash installment! :-)

[Megaman X Trainning Room]

good job for a first flash

awesome visuals! and special effects... nice free-flowing sprite animation too, the sprites looked great, and again the explosions and lighting from the blasts was cool lookin' - nice, the sound effects were in-depth, in variation, and overall used well! hope to see a storyline with this sort of talent & work that you produce - i look forward to your next flash installment :-)

[Ryan VS Sticks 2]

fresh, different concept & style - nice

nice sync-ing with the hits on the sticks and the sound effects were critically well timed too! i fine it hard to believe that you didn't even get hit once by the stick ;-p hehe... cool series you got going, fresh concept and flamboiant style! looking forward to the 3rd installment... good job man

Ryan-Wolven responds:

oh you didnt see the outtakes. i was hit adleast eight times in the face, and i have a bruise on my knee.

[Sega Speedway]

great sfx !

hehe i enjoyed the twist at the end.. sonic wins way too much! but the glowing visuals on sonic looked pretty cool mann - just like DBZ haha ? the sprites were animated heaps good! good job on that... the graphics were pretty smooth for sprite work also... NICE sound effects, and the background music played through the duration of the race was electrifying and brought a sense of anticipation of what was going to happen next, and was pretty entertaining! great free-flowing animation also, no glitches which is nice to see. Well done, good job

Nick-Gates responds:

Best Review Yet! Thx!

[Action Man vs Action Man]

great camera editing shots & angles

nice intro music.. very appealing!! lol'z... nice camera editing screen shots & angles, i like the voices too - "shutup" *smack* haha.. had to watch it twice to understand the storyline. Make a series out of it heh... maybe make it longer and put some baddies in it, look for some bad guy figuirines your bro might have haha. You got a pretty cool looking computer too ;-) (in the background) i like your style .. nice work

CymruAmByth responds:

Thanks dude. And anyway, my brother has a hell of a lot of Action Man toys so I could do that, but it's hard to keep them still hence why you can see my shadow when the silver action man falls on the other one.
