Niko's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[NG Army News 1]

Nicely done

It was well written and good to watch,though i couldnt understand some of the things that were said.The news stories were good and i liked that you advertised a thread on the bbs.I look forward to another installment.There were a lot of promising things in the movie and i know that any other flash that you guys bring out will be great.

TheNGArmy responds:

Ya, i had a bad mic so only Enolls voice was truly clear. I'm getting a new one for the next flash.

Thanks for the review!

[FF7: About Random Battles]

great movie

a well animated movie,but the mini game brings down your score,first of all your being unfair to people with slow computers as they have no way of lowering quality not even with a right click,so that created alot of bugs in the game,for instance when you drag a sphere into the section you want it to go it sometimes jumps into the section next to it.also at times when you click on spheres you dont grab them they just keep falling,in all i only managed to unlock one scene which wasn't really that funny so that didn't make me want to play on any further.

[Mario Mushroom Madness]

It aint original

Yeah Koopa invading the mushroom kingdom and kid napping peach is not an original story line.This movie represents the very thing that gives sprites a bad name,everyone of the customs used in your movie were stolen,the mario fighting stance,the blood spatter effects and the mario humping sprites were not created by you,i saw no credit to randy solem in your movie,which if memory serves me you have to do in order to use his sprite library.

Over view: bland,un interesting,un original and lots of stolen art work.

DaxFire responds:

I did give VGDC credit you smart man. As for omega like I said before, I didn't give him credit because when I went back to ninsprites to find his name, it was down. Someone told me his name and I adde it to the credits but the server was under extreme load so I couldn't upload it. I added his credit to the description of the movie now.

[9 lives]

potential

this series has got alot of potential there is just a few things you need to work on though,you didn't properly introduce the charecter,all i saw was a guy walk out a door,and he looked like a cop so i assumed he was on the police boat and not hoffman,the sound loops were good but you didn't properly sync them with the animation,did you just let the loop start and finnish out by its self,thats the way its usually done but it finnished before the scene was over you should maybe have it continuasly play throughout the movie by putting it on a continuas loop,this will keep the viewer interested in parts like when the boat was just sailing and nothing was happening,these points aside you have got some serious potential,the art and animation was smooth and better than some other stuff on ng,i can tell your still learning flash and i would advise you not to go all out on making new episodes every month,instead take your time and try to learn new things,when rushing to meet a deadline you dont mess about with things and you just do what is needed,take your time mess about and try to perfect your style and learn some stuff,ill be looking out for more stuff by you,hope this review has been a help.

sepal responds:

the sound syncs where good in the .fla. but it wasnt good anymore in the. swf, so it wasn't on purpose

[One Ring: Special Edition]

Nicely done

i liked the extra features and the redone original looked much better,the funniest parts are in the extras as they are rally the only new parts,i noticed you took a joke from an episode of southpark when george lucas and steven spielberg were all re doing there movies and replacing stuff with walkie talkies,that stuck in with your joke about stealing jokes.still wortha 5 though.

[Trouble on Yoshi Island]

the baby on the pre loader was annoying

all in all a pretty good story,the fight scene was well animated.but the baby was annoying you need to admit that.

good work nova

Cactusjuice responds:

I know i know,it annoyed me as well,at least we all know what having a baby is like now...in a way,thanks for the review Niko.
