ChandlerThompson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[No canine eye contact]

Decently done.

I liked you style of animation, it was very impressive. The movie had somewhat of a storyline, but most of it was just random events merely strung together by an irrelevent topic. I think the plot could have been a little deeper than simply stating to never look a canine in the eye, though it is an important message. I liked the public service announcer at the beginning too.

I saw good in this flash, I saw bad in this flash, but I did like the random humor at times. Like I said, I enjoyed the voice acting and the animation, both of which were up to par. You clocks always have these simple ways of impressing me. At least you're spreading a message and heading a warning to all viewers who watch this. Keep up the good work!

[Cause Im Free Fallin]

I've got mixed feelings.

Easy to say you could have chose a topic that wouldn't offend too many people, it clearly was out of bad taste. At least this was made several years after the event, so it wouldn't seem as offensive. This definately needs improvement in areas, the animation was below par, and even the video quality was pretty lame. Some effort is needed in a few categories.

The only points I gave you were for choosing two good songs and the little bit of animating you did. Like I said, I wouldn't joke about this, but at least add some sort of storyline and not a nonsensical joke. Believe me, I love random humor, but this seemed more tasteless and effortless than random. Anyway, I'm sure improvement is in your future, keep up the good work.

[Story of Mardigan]

I love random humor.

The storyline is what makes this flash so great. The animation was choppy in some places, but the plot definately made up for that. I love how whenever you talked about Will Smith, Eddie Murphy's face popped up. The sound effects were unbearable though, my ears are on the verge of bleeding from them. Still, this submission was hilarious, I can't stop watching it.

I don't what your inspiration was for this flash, but it is an instant classic. The anding had me confused beyond belief, I had no idea where that came from. I like your sense of humor, it is very similar to mine. I hope to see more wacky adventures like this from you in the future. By the way, was this base of a true story? Anyway, keep up the good work!

[Junior]

Another great episode.

Thsi continues to be one of the coolest series on this site. I love Jerry's dad, everything he does is so morbid, but he does remind of people I know. I am enjoying all your prequels to Jerry, but I am entertained more as they turn into epilogues and we see how Jerry's family lives on. My favorite part was when Jerry's dad said that Jerry hanging himself was totally something he would do. The Jerry and the Closet references at the end look like a promising sequel, perhaps?

I am highly impressed by your skill at animation, you have a distinctive way of drawing your characters that I think is unique. The story for this one is probably the best yet, finding that Jerry and father were actually alike that they repeated the same routine everyday, yet Junior and Jerry's dad were more similar than we would have thought. It was a very creative storyline that I adored. Keep up the excellent work, and remember, me love you long time.

[A Boy & His Blob (VGDC)]

A great parody,

I had to look up all the Boy and his Blob parodies on this site to see how much I remember since the new version of the game is coming out. I really like how you focused on the main sprites, backgrounds, and animation used in the original game, it makes me want to get out my NES and play. When the blob was flying and crapping I was rolling and laughing, it was hilarious.

It truly is childish humor at its best. At least I can now admit my immaturity and get on with my life. This was such a basic idea that included more laughs than I could hold, it's great to see other fans of the game on this site. I hope to see more prodies of the game that are as hysterical as this one was. In the meantime, keep up the great work!

[Trix Rabbit Justice Ad]

Very funny.

I've seen a few movies that focus ont his same concept, but this is by far the best one I've seen. I loved the parts where you interviewed Snap, Crackle, and Pop, the way you made them have such dark personalities is hilarious. The animationw as very good, and it did follow the basis of those causes on television that want you to feel sympathetic. Very funny all around.

The only thing I counted off for was the sound. The voices sounded fuzzy most of the time making it difficult to understand what the characters were saying. It is cool to see this being your first finished flash, and now you look at the great other flashes you've created. You have definately improved over the year. Keep up the great work!

[Ask Mr. Owl]

Decently clever.

I thought this was a nice little parody of a classic commercial. You stuck well tot he animation that was in the original commercial, and it was nice to hear the audio from it again. The lip sync was off though, and I thought the ending was somewhat predictable and it really didn't seem satisfying. It was basically the original commercial except there was a gun, could use a few improvements.

I still got a laugh out of the part with the lawsuit lollypop, hopefully Tootsie Roll won't sue you for this, come on, they have to be able to take a joke. This makes me wanna go get a Tootsie Pop really bad, at least the flash worked on a level of persuasion. I wish the world would find how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, until then, keep up the good work!

[The end of Pikachu]

Pretty funny.

You definately chose a funny sound bite to animate, I laughed at the whole idea behind it. I was impressed by your animating ability, I immediately recognized Arnoldbyt he way you drew him. Like many Pokemon flashes on this site, this falls victim to lack of creativity. About every flash in the Pokemon collection is about killing Pikachu, I just felt it could have been more original.

It was pretty sick the fate that Pikachu had, but the way you animated it made it look very cool. This is really good for a flash dating all the way back to 2003, I'm impressed. The lip sync was decent too. Overall, it was an enjoyable trailer for a movie that I would really like to see. Keep up the good work, and hopefully, I'll be back. Had to include the Terminator reference, this flash has occupied my mind with it.

[Toonslayer]

Great animation, unoriginal concept.

Artworkwise, this was fantastic. Everything was perfect if I judged completely one the artwork. The only thing I counted off for was exactly what you stated in the author comments, the movie doesn't have an original concept. Mindless bashing of Pokemon is what this site was built on, but there are way to many of those kinds of flashes on this site. I can tell you're creative, but this didn't pass on originality.

The voice you used for Ash, Pikachu, and Toonslayer were all very good. It was really creepy when Toonslayer was breathing heavily at the end, but he did it so often that I actually got a laugh out of it. This was a decently amusing flash, I liked it. Congratulations on your two awards for this flash and keep up the really good work!

['Whirlpool Chicken']

I like your style.

The way you animate each of your characters is so cool, it is so much different from any other author's work I have seen. I was impressed by all of the frame-by-frame work that was done on this flash too. You had good music with a nice little story to follow through. Just curious, what was you insiration for this flash? It is so bizarre, but in a spectacularly awesome way, it was very entertaining.

The only thing I had a problem with is that I couldn't understand the storyline or plot at all. It just seemed like numerous random events that somehow were combined by odd characters. I'm not syaing that I didn't like it, I just thought the concept could have been a little clearer. Anyway, I thought this was a nicely done creative flash, keep up the great work!

Butzbo responds:

Great, i'm glad i've made something bizarre :)
About the 'inspiration' thing, at first i just had the idea of a 'happy chicken' getting inside a washer. That seemed fun and experimental to animate. When i got to the washer sequence, i got a little stuck, and then i focused on the fish to get to some 'wacky' ending.
And...yes, almost every event there is 'random' (too bad, i'm reading that word in almost every review!) ...
I'll try to focus more in the script in my next 'big' project', thanks ;) !
