Gate-keeper-girl's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Intruder Returns]

Definetly shows promise

Though I didn't like the stiffness of the figures' movement when they started out (It all seemed a little too 'card board cutout' to me.)
But much to my delight they soon seemed to loosen up, as you incorporated some of the roto-scoping (If it wasn't then you have a keen eye for animation, good sir) and smoothed out the motions.

May I suggest a higher framerate? That might even things out a bit.

Anyway. Great sound effects, graphics, and overall performance.

And people, why does it need a plot? It would be nice, sure, but can't you appretiate the animation for what it is? Maybe its more mysterious and (might I add) FUCKING AWESOME without one? Things don't have to be dragged out. Some of the best animations (to me) are ones that don't NEED a plot to explain what's happening.

... though it might be because My IQ is higher than 70?

mmankt responds:

runs at 30 fps; rotoscoped the parts in smoke; i love you cuz you don't need the plot ;d

[The Last Fight]

This is pretty crappy.

It had only a few shots of real animation as opposed to overused tweening and "dramatic" camera effects.
For this to take a year is rather outrageous, because of the minimalistic style for everything.

I have no idea what you are talking about when you say "100% in paper, all you are watching was done in a sheet of paper" so it was all drawn on one single piece of paper?
Oh well. Maybe your English is bad.

On another note. The music was too loud, and seemed unfitting for the theme of the flash.
That's not my reason for voting down. Just the quality of animation.

(Also, you reused frames to a pretty blatant extent... ) In the end it was an okay effort. But not worth my time after all was said and done.

Try harder.

[Dv - Train Tracks]

Another great animation from Lazymuffin

I totally love you man.

What impressed me most about this flash, was the facial animation with the slow motion lip synch. Bloody brilliant man, though I could have done with a more "satisfying" impact when the train hit them.

Still a great flash, that makes me laugh every time I watch it.
KEEP IT UP.
Can't wait to see your new flashes once you start using that tablet. I know I love my own tablet, so I'm sure you'll do great things on your's blah blah blah

LazyMuffin responds:

I will do great work on my blah blah blahs

[Link and Navi]

Rip off

The real legend of zelda, without quality.

Only a very few of the jokes were funny, the Navi voice was mind bogglingly bad, and the animation was pretty terrible. Music was also subpar. There are websites with better remixes than just NG. Give the audio a little more thought next time.

I gave it a try, I really did.
But it didn't meet my expectations.

[It's Cold Inside]

More awesome

Than I expected.

I can see why you enjoyed working on this.
Great chilling setting, and I enjoyed the scanned in artwork.

Too bad newgrounds isn't gonna get to see anymore of these.

-GKG

[tWHYlight]

You. Just. made. My entire. week.

This was everything I wanted in a flash movie about twilight. Accurate parody of the movie and it's idiotic characters, and a person who loathes them.

Seriously one of the funniest things I've seen all month so far, and you'll be getting full marks for...

Animation; everything felt smooth, and your attention to detail, especially in parts with the movie crowd was very satisfying. facial animation was great, and everything looked in place, consistently good.
Great writing, great voice acting, and great cast of characters you have there.

Keep it up, I'm hungry for moar.

MOAR I TELL YOU.

Bobert-Rob responds:

Damn, and I just finished this! Guess I better get back to work... heh. Thanks for watching, glad to have made your month. All that yelling was worth it. Woo!

[Collab of Champions]

Pathetic (not the animation, mind you)

re-uploading for score/ awards?

That's a reportable offense you know. And I think I will be writing an inquiry about this flash to Tom. So congratulations on making yourself, and your collab partners look like gigantic douches.

All in all, the collaboration itself wasn't that bad, but your score isn't going to vary any more whether you upload this once, or a thousand times. Unless you change things like the audio (which is of horrible quality, perhaps you should look into better compression and optimization methods)
Couple of things could be changed about it, and the stick theme is highly dull, even if one or two of them broke the generic fight scene mold.

My friend Theo down there is completely correct, and you've only made things worse for yourself by responding so angrily to reviews that weren't all that unreasonable in their accusations.
Thanks for proving, once again, that newgrounds is a place for everyone, including the mentally handicapped.

TeamXHawk responds:

O, my, I feel so bad, I will therefore go to my corner and cry out my pain. You can't flag this is repost because the file had changes done. I didn't read your whole review, I'm sick of them.

[ACML III: Bliss]

Great guys. Lets say a word to the reviewers.

1st of all. If you don't like the song, don't just Blam it because of your distaste for the music. I hate people that do that. Muse isn't EMO by the by. (Anything that has a shred of emotion seems to be emo to you people... I swear.)

2nd of all. Winterwind didn't write the song we animated for. He wrote the menu/ intro music.
We did credit Muse in the first scene (if you would take two seconds to look for it, its in the corner...)

If you don't like 'anime' style, I really don't want to fucking hear about it. Its how some of us draw / animate, so will you look at the animation rather than the style?
Seriously.

To everyone who is insulted by the overuse of nudity; grow up. It's symbolic for their spirit. Notice how the less-realistic points switch to nudity? ... No you didn't. Because all you do is watch porn, and think that's the only use for anyone being bereft of clothing.

This is not all one story, but 4 combined artists switching off scenes from their own plot. Just wanted to make that clear.

I'm disheartened by the score we got, this took aLOT of effort, but considering 80% of newgrounders are retarded, it was to be expected.

Forgive me for being angry, but can you blame me?

For those people who took the time to consider everything that went into this, just know we love you, thank you for the great reviews.

I know that you can't please everyone, but for Christ's sake...
Try animating something this good before you beat us down to make yourself feel better.

Until next time (if there is even going to be a next time for Newgrounds...)

[a little animation <3]

Overated

But cute.

Try doing something more plot oriented, I want to see how far your talents go.
Somewhat fluid animation, but I was irritated when you repeated some frames.

Good effort, could take some improvement, but decent for a first.
-GKG

[The iPhone Shuffle]

Seriously NG

It was funny, but you spent so little time on the animation...
It was like watching a medium quality Clock crew film. All in all funny, but nothing that hasn't been thought of before.

Meh, hope people forget about this pointless flash.
