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!

[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

[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.

[south park tutorial1]

make more

ng need's more turorial's.you should make a tutorial for all the charecter's.this show's how easy it can be to draw with a mouse in flash or is this another one of these look's easier than it really is kind of thing's.

Baystream responds:

It's as easy as it looks, actually...
I drew this with a mouse but I have a tablet because I found south park much easier to draw with a mouse!

[Clay Needs Tea (The Best)]

tis crap is stolen

i saw this yesterday and it wasnt made by you.i cant believe no one blew the whistle on you.this shit is fucked up i cant believe you got away with this.

DrNeroCF responds:

haha, check the authors, its me, I admit it, I subbmitted it twice...I didn't know you could just update it, I'm new at this, my bad...but seriously, you did look at my "other flash" list and see Clay Needs Tea, without "(The Best)"? I mean, it's not that hard to realize that it's not stolen if it's the same person, and named the same

[Spirited Away - Solitude]

wow

this has got to be the most moving animation on ng.the mixture of the music and the expression on the charecters face really make you sad.good job man.

Maurizio responds:

Thanks a lot. Most people can say that this piece did not take months to do, and I agree...it took me 1 week. But I put all my thoughts and feelings into it..because I am going through a hard time right now, and I guess that is why many people were touched by it.
