ChandlerThompson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Old Mill Pond]

Perfect in every way.

You definately chose the right stand up monologue to animate, I laughed so hard at this. The animation was flawless, I loved all the water rippling effects. You also captured each of the character's personalities excactly the way that the comedian described them, it seemed like I was imagining a very vivid picture in my mind, and then it appeared on the screen. Excellent job on this piece.

I was very impressed by your skill at lip sync as well, the mouths matched perfectly with the voices. I'm going to have to look more jokes from this Mike Birbiglia guy, he is downright hilarious. Once again, I congratulate you on showing great amounts of flash skill. Congratulations on your daily award and keep up the great work!

[9 Months Later]

That is exactly how it happened.

I got a lot of laughs out this flash. The animation was excellent, I love the random actions the doctor did such as eating the blood and such. The ending was hilarious, I loved the expression on Tom's face at that point. I also enjoyed when they showed that the doctor was making the beeping sounds. Overall, it gave me a bunch of laughs, good job.

The only thing I think you can improve on is adding a higher voice resolution to your microphone. I'm not trying to criticize your accent, but the voices came out kinda scratchy and fuzzy. It didn't decrease the entertainment that much, but that is the only thing that kept you from getting a perfect score in my book. Keep up the good work!

Well thankyou very much for the kind words and the great review. It's my pleasure to make people laugh.

The voice acting is the only thing people had been critizing and I understand it. I'm a good voice actor in spanish, my natal language, but I guess english is not my strong point. I hope to get some real voice actors next time.

Thanks!

A good look at your personality.

I like all of the addition to the My Newgrounds collection, and yours is definately one of the better ones. The voices you used at the beginning and with the hands were hilarious. It was interesting to actually see what users think about the site, I thought this was a neat way to look at you characteristics and a way to express your opinion about the site. Good job overall.

I know there wasn't much to animate, but I thought some of the animations could have been better. The hand part was drawn somewhat lazily and the ending where most people do the curtain part seemed out of place. I still found this flash to be very entertaining and informative in some ways. Keep up the good work Yoink!

[The Best Car Insurance]

A funny parody.

It was interesting topic to parody, never thought I'd see someone poke fun a Esurance. The ending was great, I loved seeing Flo, the Caveman, and the Alltel guy. The animation was decent and the voices were pretty good. I must watch way too much television since I recognized all of the commercial celebrities. I hope to see more work like this from you, it was good.

The thing this flash was lacking is a story. I just see the agent running, then a bundle of other commercial stars pop out. I had no idea what was going on then, and the random sound effects that were playing didn't really add to the humor either. The sound resolution could be raised becuase some of the voices soundeded a little fuzzy. Anyway, keep up the great work!

[Hey Newgrounds]

A funny short.

You summed up many conversations us users have shared on this site. You chose a good song for the animation, and most of the character's actions matched the beat of the song, that is very impressive. My favorite part was when the pink character kept yelling at the green guy to apologize, for some reason that made me laugh very hard. You have a good sense of humor, keep it up.

The only problem was the simple animation and motion tweening. I understand it was just a basic conversation, but animation would have made the flash even more entertaining. Don't get me wrong, I thought this flash was hilarious, but I can see ways on how it would become even better. Congrats on you underdog of the week award and keep up the great work!

[Bedtime Story]

A nice story.

Animationwise, I would have to give this a perfect score, your style of animating is just stunning. But overall I have to dock you one point because I felt that the fight scene rambled on incoherently. It just seemed like it continued without advancing the plot. Besides that this was a highly impressive piece. It really does seem like something you would see on televison. Excellent job.

The ending was excellent, it tied up the story very well. The characters were cute and I like how they always mumbled when they spoke. Despite its unnecessary length, the fight scene was well animated and partly interesting. Overall, this was an entertaining piece with exhilirating animation. I know have high expectations for your future work. Keep it up!

[An Awesome Halloween]

Pretty funny.

Your earlier work always has has this distinct look to it, and I find that amusing. I remember the canned food drives at my elementary school on Halloween, it's cool when you can relate to a flash. The voices you used were funny, and I liked the commentary at the end of the film. It was also nice to see you step away from the video game parodies genre, this was a clever flash.

I thought the animation could have used a little work, but I understand this was one of your earlier submissions. The ending was was pretty predictable, so I wasn't overly impressed by that. It is interesting to see your work now and how much success and improvement you've gained over all these years. Keep up the great work Ego!

[Awesome Cracks Down]

I got a few laughs from it.

You really have shown a great amount of improvement in your animating abiltiy, especially in the coffee scene. I didn't find as much humor in it as your other flashes, but I thought it was clever when the guy was on fire. I think I may have gotten more laughs out of the easter egg than the actual flash, that Charmander bit had me rolling.

It seems as if you now are relying on your previous fans to find all your flashes funny, because it seems that I am finding less and less humor in each flash you create. They still have some entertainment, but just don't enjoy them as much as I used to. Anyway, keep up the good work Ego.
