spritefan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Xionic Madness 4 Part-2]

Jesus Christ.

Once again, amazing job.

In all honesty though, my favorite fighting episode was episode 3. But this episode is certainly better with cinematics and effects. So it's all good.

Love it, great job.

Xionico responds:

Well, Xionic Madness 3 is more of the main event after all, XM4 is more of a conclusion :D and I knew that it would be a though one to surpass D; damn!

Thanks for the review!

[Kawaii Battle Stars]

KAWAIIIII

SOOO KAWAIII DESU.

But seriously, fucking hilarious. Animation was above average too. Continue this shit man.

AxelTheNavy responds:

Will do, willaboo

[Boyfriends & Videogames]

Ohay Cera.

Would've lowered the modernwarefare audio and raised the main voices a bit in my opinion. Pretty old video of yours, also, how did you convert it? I thought you made maple videos with an editing program.. Or do you use flash?

Anyways, it's aight~

CeraRain responds:

Derek? Yeah, it's kind of old. I made this nearly a year ago. Law school's keeping me from spitting out videos as much as I'd like. But i'm making a new movie. Trailer is coming soon. :)

I did make maple videos with an editing program: Final Cut Express 4. I then converted it with software I got for free online to .swf. It's called Aura4U. But, it's about time I start learning flash so I can draw my own animations.

[Maple: The Slime Issue]

I wasn't expecting that

First off, you got the newgrounds preloader/play button you don't need to add a second one.

Also, I love how you guys actually put an effort to have voice acting in your video.. But you sound like 10 year olds (you guys prolly are). And the people here on newgrounds are mainly guys much much older. A lot of guys probably won't take it seriously/like it since your voices are just so childish.

For actual animating advice try trace bitmapping your sprites. It'll boost up the quality cause some of the sprites get distorted from the vcam if not zoomed in enough.

I know I was a little harsh, but I actually like it, just said all that stuff so hopefully you can take it and improve with it.

GJ.

alafraga responds:

Thanks alot bro, really appreciate it. and are you THE sprite fan the sprite animator from youtube.com?

[Grand Mario Fable ep.3]

Bleh.

You need to get more original, it looks completely Smbz influenced, having animations with your own originality is what makes them great/popular. You are using text boxes the same way he does, you are using the same sound effects he does, etc.

The scenes that were talking/notfighting seem really sloppily put together, it's important to make those scenes look good because it's boring as shit to read the text. You need to make it look nice and cinematic if you want everyone to read it. The fights were somewhat better than I expected, but the concept and style is exactly like Smbz.

I'm afraid you're the kinda guy who's going to be butthurt at what I said and disregard my comment. Hopefully that's not the case, just improve in the things I said~

Kyuubiscarz8 responds:

Hmmm......you're right.

[Casino Vs Mario Vs Sonic: Ep.2]

Damn

Huge improvement man.

Much better than the first. The only advice I can kinda give you is the title. When people see that MariovsSonic in the title, it causes some assholes on NG to just rate it low without even watching the video.

GL with creating the 3rd, I like how it's progressing.

Budj responds:

That's what I was thinking too. It sucks aswell because I don't really want to change the name :(.

But thanks for the review! :D

[Pokemon: Fated Encounter]

Fucking intense

One of the most actionpacked animation on newgrounds.

You really need to make your animations a bit smoother though. Just cause it's choppy as hell. I mean, when it's all chaotic like that, choppyness isn't a bad thing I suppose, but I mean, it's almost too much.. Some oft he animation should remain smooth.

And oddly, you draw pokemon muchhhh better than you draw people.

Tyrant-D responds:

I reduced the frame rate that was why it was abit choppy. But as alot of folks were saying that the flash is too fast, I had to reduce it to 18fps. if I had increased the flash to 24fps. The pokemon would have moved faster than sonic lol

[PokeROm]

Lmao, it was nice.

Should've tried to use the original pokemon text and make it look more pokemon like.

KolkeLight responds:

i'll have it in mind, thanks

[RC: Super Mario 64]

Lmao

Funny idea, executed somewhat poorly. The snow effect was horrible.. meh, it just felt like you could've put in a bit more time in making it nicer.

Still funny.

CammersJDL responds:

eh i must admit with the snow as soon as i got it working convincingly enough ijust left it as is, i was gonna do a second layer so some of the snow was behind the characters, but what can i say, i am a lazy bastard :P

[MK's race]

Meh

Background quality is bad, if it's just a bitmap, goto your library, right click it, properties, then set the quality to lossless PNG, it'll look better.

Also, the sound effects seemed too loud compared to the song.

Overall, this is just mediocre.

07mariokirby responds:

thanks for the tip =)
