ChandlerThompson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kitty Krew Opening J]

An epic introduction.

I am very impressed with your animation talent, it definately had that anime fighting feeling to it. You chose a good song too, it fit the mood of the flash very well. Was the human knight guy on the Newgrounds side supposed be Tom Fulp? Just curious about it, but I thought you captured the essence of the Kitty Krew very well in your flash, this was excellently made.

Like I said, I like your animation style, but I thought in some of the fight scenes the animation was pretty choppy. It was during the part when you showed a closeup on each of the kitties face, that's when I started seeing some miskewed lines and such. Besides that, I thought this flash was mesmerizing. Fantastic job on this, keep up the great work!

Hulalaoo responds:

I just are a specialist in fight scene, but i are lazy for ork much in a flash :3 this is the reason of the choppy scene :3

[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!

SkoolCool responds:

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!

[Did You Hear That?]

Perhaps the most creative collab I have seen.

The concept of this flash is brilliantly creative, my eyes were glued to the screen the whole time. The animation for each of the scenes was very good, but I liked MyKindOfFlash's scene the best. It was interesting to see how each author interpreted each sound. It shows how some authors have similar taste, such as many people including a lightsaber, or completely different, like the gold shine going "lalalala". I was entertained the whole time, kudos to everyone.

The author biography section was well organized and I like how you included each sound that they submitted, I guess it shows their personalities in a way. If you do wish to continue this and make it into a series I would be glad to help out in the next one. I once again congratulate you in showing the upmost creativity in this collab and having a great crew of animators to make the flash worthwhile. Keep up the excellent work everybody!

Graeme responds:

When Simon handed his sound it was titled Light Saber. So I was worried it would come out as such in almost every part. But really only like two parts. And not even Simon's. Interesting :)

Thanks for the menu props. I spent a lot of time making those bio's snazzy :)

You show so much style in your work.

When judging the flash's artwork, it is easy to say that this was nothing below superb. The style you use when animating is mesmerizing, you made the characters look so distinct, I am very impressed. You included a good song and had great animation that followed it. I liked the story it told too, this was a very creative piece, great job you two.

There were a few things that I didn't like about the flash though. I thought you stretched out the fight scenes a little too long, and I disliked whenever the robots threw something it would always be a slow motion tween. I'm sure the reason you did that was so you could animate the full length of the song though. Besides that, I was entertained from beginning to end.

Just short of a perfect score in my book, but I still enjoyed the piece very much. It's so cool the band liked your music video, it must mean a lot coming from them. I hope to see work as good as this from you guys in the future. Keep up the great work!

ZekeySpaceyLizard responds:

yeah the band were very nonrestrictive
we pretty much got to do whatever the heck we wanted in terms of content
and they were very supportive

[T E T R I S ' D]

A pretty cool concept.

This was a really neat idea for a flash, I love the whole Tetris block avoidance and robot battle theme you were going for. The animation was nicely done, and I thoroughly enjoyed how the Tetris theme would be in sync with the main character's actions, I found that to be very creative. It's clear to say you put a lot of effort into this, good job.

There were only a few problems I had with the flash. I thought the main character could have had a little more animation towards himself, instead of merely making him a stickman. I also found it to be repetitive at times whenever the stickman would avoid the Tetris blocks, the constant barrel roll technique made it somewhat boring.

Aside from those things, I was entertained from beginning to end. It was a great tribute to Tetris, I highly enjoyed it. Keep up the great work!

KobraEditing responds:

Thanks!

About the same as the first.

I got a few good laughs out of this one. My favorite of the sketches was when you used the sound effect from South Park about Hybrids, that was hilarious. It was good to see some of the jokes from the last one too, like the Pokemon skier and Aids joke. You show skill that you can actually take simple sprites and make them funny, good job on that.

Wasn't too different from the first flash about this topic. Granted, the jokes were somewhat corny, but they did make me laugh. The voices you used were pretty good too. The only thing I wasn't too impressed by was that the lip sync was often out of sync, and that some of the sketches didn't require too much creativty. Aside from that, I found this to be highly entertaining. Keep up the great work!

iShirm responds:

Thanks for the review!
Gonna try to get some joke writer next time, or at least try to get better in that area. Thanks again, cheers!

Definately needs improvement.

All I could see in this flash was that you've mastered inserting decent music into the flash and tweening. It just seems like a lost cause without having any plot or characters. The repetition is boring and make the viewr immediately lose interest. Definately not showing much skill here with flash, but it means you can improve.

Simply put more effort into a flash. Add a background and characters, create a storyline, it will all come together nicely. I'd be glad to help with it if you wish. THis definately isn't the worst flash I've seen, and I'm almost positive that you can improve from this. Keep up the great work!

SilentCobra responds:

Cool, thanks for the offer, I'll take you up on that, but I have prior commitments in the EGB. Get AIM and we'll talk about this later I hope? Anyway, as I stated, this is my first actual flash animation, made in flash. I do hope to improve, though this is not a career choice, this is all merely a hobby.
