jimmydafish's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Skittles N' Bitz 3]

FG.

So this was not very funny at all. I was expecting something totally different. But good job on stealing the woodpecker on the guys head from Family Guy. Like the guy before me said. You're great at animation, but the jokes are very tired.

[Elite]

Elite.... copycat.

As I watch this, all I cna think about is the Terminator, or the Matrix, or a comination of both of them. I really liked the animation style, but couldn't it be longer? One robot death that quick. I know it's fast paced and all, but if that's the case, when he jumps over the barrier, he should have to face like 5 of those things. Just to show how Elite he really is.

DifferentName responds:

Yeah, i probably didn't do enough to show how powerful the robot is supposed to be, but a lesser person would have just gotten killed by the gunfire. At first i was thinking of doing 3 robots but 3d animation is tough!

[Routine]

nice.

So as I'm watching this, I'm thinking of the movie Office Space. Just because the guy got tired of his dull job, and started coming in later and later. But other than that. This was a good animation project. I enjoyed it.

[Defective Chicks]

hehe.

This was pretty funny. I always have a good sense of humor about things. but I agree with a lot of people. it should have been longer. Like, "Remember that chick that I dated that was deaf? It was great, cause when she got mad, I didn't have to hear a nagging voice, just a bunch of flying hands everywhere trying to tell me why she's mad." Something like that. But good job man.

["The Mustache Contest"]

Meh.

This wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. It was right on the verge of suck, but right on the verge of right on. I don't know what to say about it. I got bored watchinga bunch of fish trying to grow mustaches.

[We Hate It When...]

Why?

This was great and all... but why did you have to use RBF? Aaron barret is an A-HOLE!!! I once played a show with my band, Starpool, and the Forces of Evil, and Aaron came up to his bandmates while we were talking to them, and he goes, "Hey guys, don't associate with the help!" Fuck Aaron. But good animation, horrible song.

[-Play-]

Ummm...

Well. I can honestly say that this ws crap. Don't get me wrong... I couldn't do better, cause I don't have any artistic forms in me. But I could have DESTORYED you on the music portion. You know what would have saved this for me? If you would have left those guys out there afterwards, and you could have had everyone record their own version. Now THAT would have been good. Other than that. Try using music. Not drums.

Dustball responds:

Firstly, I didn't use drums, I used sounds of trash cans, jumping on the floor, clapping hands etc. Secondly, if I was to let people click on them at the end, you have to keep in mind that the sound does not occur as soon as the animation of each guy starts, it takes sometimes several seconds for the animation to get to the sound, so anyone trying to make their own music would fail miserably, and I can only asusme you would definately complain about that. Another thing, I have been playing the drums since I was 5 years old, and trust me I know what I'm doing. But coordinating 14 little animations to sync with 7 sounds in Flash? Not as easy as you might think. And no offense, but it is easy for people without "any artist forms" in them to assume that what they see is simple and they could do it better. There are so many little factors that went in to deciding to keep the composition very simple. In the next one, I would very much like to kick the music up a notch and really go wild, but this time around, it is what it is. And you could've DESTROYED me on the music portion is a great thing to say... but "Music by jimmydafish:
- none - " Hmm, where's the proof? Other than that. Try using your brain. Not drugs.

[Trials of the Spiderman]

One Mistake

Interesting. But you did make one fatal mistake! Spiderman couldn't ever detect Venom with his Spider Sense. Venom's alien enhanced uniform (simbiot) made it to where Peter Parker couldn't ever detect him. But other than that... it wasn't completely unbearable.

[One-Way Trip]

Hmmm...

Well. That was odd to say the least. But I hate when people try to act as if they "understand" what the piece meant. The only real meaning is in the artist. Sure people can have interpretations, but who is to decide the ultimate fate of any work? The NG crew? The NG fans? The NG designers? No. It only matters what the artist him/herself thought about their own individual conquest to either amuse others, themselves, or nobody. But It was a decent piece of work. I wish I knew flash as well as some of you all, so I could get some funny stuff on here.. but it probably won't happen, cause I'm lazy, and too busy.

[Don't Step On A Crack]

WTF?!?

How in the FUCK did this get on the front page?!? My God... I think I'm dumber now, just from watching this. Stop putting shit like this out.
