FlashfireEX's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Keroro Shogun Premiere]

Wow.

What a great recruitment flash. The art style is nearly identical to that of Keroro Gunso, which was obviously what you were going for. I have to say, I'm not really sure what this whole project is about but this flash itself is amazing. Also, the Keronian with the letter T for his emblem... is he an official or fan character? I haven't watched past season 4 so I wouldn't know about any new platoon members. Well... not really much else to say but great job. :)

Finally.

I've been waiting for this for quite a while. After seeing this, I think it turned out pretty good. Sure, some of the parts were a bit lame and/or badly animated but overall I think it's a pretty decent collab. Though, I'm sort of disappointed in my parts now considering I can do so much better at this point in time. Also, on my toast part, the second sound is out of sync... that doesn't matter much to me though. The comic section was great too, and I'm glad you included my scrolling comic in the extras. Great collab, guys. :)

Thanks for the review, and for contributing :)

[Was a Teenage Emo Goomba4]

Not half bad.

I've always thought your animation was extremely sloppy and lazy... but I liked this (and quite a bit of your other work). I thought this episode was much better than the others. The sprites in the previous ones were a lot sloppier than the Paper Mario ones in this one. The Pokemon joke in this episode was pretty funny too. As for the voice acting, it wasn't too bad. Keep making these, they're getting better. :D

Eastbeast responds:

Ha yeah I agree about my animation being lazy, but this one I definately put some effort into. Thanks for the review. :)

[Super Zombie World Part 1]

Interesting.

I'm not gonna lie... I liked it. It featured some of my friends as voice actors, which was a plus... but let's talk about the movie.

Yes, the idea HAS been done before, but you managed to make it work. In terms of animation, some of it was good and some of it was just sloppy. For example, your growing and skewing tweens are a little bit too slow. Especially for Bill Board (think I got that right), which needs to be skewed to fit his talking more. I do that kind of thing all the time and it isn't too time consuming, so you should try doing it.

Some other movements were a bit too slow too, but again, a lot of the animation was pretty good; that being the parts that didn't need ease. So here's a big note. You HAVE to start using EASE in your tweens. If you don't know what that is, then PM me or something and I'll tell you. It makes all the difference and makes sprite movies much more visually appealing. It would help in lipsyncing too, though you did really good with that anyway, especially the goomba.

So in conclusion, I like this movie. Just make sure to use ease in your tweens next time (if you are doing this, then use more because I didn't notice it at all). I came up with this Flash idea once actually, but I never did it because it had been done before. That didn't stop you though, and you did a pretty good job. Sometimes originality doesn't matter to me, if it's a good idea that is. Keep up the good work.

(P.S. If you haven't seen this idea done before, watch Bowser's Kingdom: Eps 666 and Left 4 Dead Bros.)

MurderMysteryMan responds:

I appreciate the analysis. And yeah, it has been done before. Bowser's Kingdom started the zombie idea, but I kinda wanted to complete it. And Left 4 Dead Bros. just beat me to it :P

[24 in 24]

Yes.

This turned out absolutely great. I enjoyed watching you animate these as well as meeting all the other animators that came to check it out as well. It was also fun to watch Hania compose the music while you animated. Good work, my friend. If you don't get Daily 1st then I'll be shocked. :)

[[CD10] Colin on Clock Day]

Woo.

I know this flash isn't yours as I'm 100% positive I've seen this somewhere else a long time ago but I just love this loop. Who knows, that may have been you who uploaded it there a long time ago (even though that's highly unlikely). At least you know the music from it. Take your 10 and consider yourself lucky. Then again, It is Clock Day so who really cares? xD

Punisher responds:

It's mine. The only other place I uploaded it to was Albino Black Sheep, that was back in the day though. This has been in my personal archives for awhile

[Holy Sprites2 (Collab)]

It was decent.

Like I said, it was decent. It wasn't amazing or anything. I had it's funny parts and it's well animated parts. Honestly, I really hoped it would be a bit better though. Though it was quite long so I can see a lot of time and effort was put into this, especially with some users like Sunrie making so many parts. It was mostly quality animation that this lacked in my opinion. Honestly though, I kind of wish I had decided to make a part for this. If you make another, feel free to PM me and I might make a part or two. If you do make another I suggest setting the bar a little higher for parts though. Just a little. I might be rating a little high but I think I'd give this a 7. Also, OutcastLabs definitely should've been Co-Authored. ;)

Sunrie responds:

You got it. I'll keep you in mind. As for OCLabs, he needs to add me to his portal buddies. I already sent the request.

Oh, and as for me doing so many, this originally started out as something that only I was doing, but then I opened it up as a collab

[Sonic 4 trailer]

Ha.

This is just hilarious. It was funny the whole way through. Also, was that sound you used after every skit from Metalocalypse? I could swear I heard it on that show. It could just be a recycled music clip though. Also, the part with Amy is probably the funniest. I've seen this flash at least 7 times by now and that part still makes me laugh. The only thing I could think to improve is the animation, but you've got it perfect with humor. Good job, my friend.

[I Dream In Retro]

Great concept!

This is just amazing. The animation was great, I love the mix of the many different games and I never dreamed they could fit together so well. Apparently you did though. I can't possibly think of anything bad to say about this. 5/5 10/10

[Rayman Randimation]

Haha.

I remember playing these games as a kid so I got the jokes and they were pretty funny! The animation was pretty good too, I guess. I thought it could have been a lot longer though. This had a lot of potential. Anyways, good job! Hope to see more from you. Next time make a longer submission though.
