Little-Rena's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

Not Intresting

There's not a whole lot here to talk about, there is some animation that is pretty much just a loop, some of the art is okay but some of it like just the screenshot and edited gif is just kind of blah. The audio is clear, but that's kind of the only decent thing about it, I could find anything funny with this, sorry, it was just kind of boring.

I didn't feel like designing a swell background in the end, so I chose the most appropriate thing I could for the time. As per the gif, I didn't make that. It was posted in the forums and I updated the movie with it later.

[Office Christmas Party]

Okay

Well I don't really see too much going on except for one guy talking, it could do with a little more to it, I mean the womans face doesn't even seem to change through the whole flash which to me seems really strange, there's a guy yammering away and she doesn't change, lol.

No problems with the voice acting, that seems to be okay and very clear, so good work on that part and some of the graphics are pretty decent. Though they could do with a little work. Just really the main plot here that I think needs much improvement.

Her face does change, it's just hard to notice. Thanks!

[ShortShakespeare- Othello]

Hmm Okay

It didn't really make a whole lot of sense, I know I've read it and seen it because I had to at school, but I still don't get a whole lot of the plot, maybe it's just missing some of the more important details out. The graphics and animation aren't too bad, they could do with a bit of work in parts but mostly decent. As for the sound, it seems a little poor quality and the voice acting could do with a little more work.

On a whole, the idea might be nice but I don't really think it has come out in this too well, some more feeling in the voice acting and a few more details in the main story might actually improve this. I can get over some of the details in the animation and graphics though, lol, those aren't really as important as they are pretty much okay here.

Timsplosion responds:

Well, not actually having read the play myself, and having decoded it from the Reduced Shakespeare Company's Othello rap, this was basically the story of it, and I thought it went pretty well, cos I've had one or two reviews saying how good the summary of the story is, so meh, you win some you lose some.

I don't really do these to let people base stuff of off, and I miss out all the subplots and characters that the story can function without, it's just a "cut-the-crap summary", for those who really can't be f#cked to read it and find out all the other stuff in it. Like me.

Well, thanks for the review. I'm still working on getting my animation better, so yeh, keep your eyes open for stuff I make in the future.

Alright

Well the voice acting although it was pretty clear didn't really have much to it, might want to work a little bit on that to kind of add more feeling to the whole situation, in parts it just didn't really seem to work with the story. Also, the part with the prison and the music, in my opinion the music just went on for a little too long and the constant flicking back and forth of charaters did seem to get a little boring to watch.

The story and idea seems to be pretty good and with a little more animation and some more practice with voice acting, it could have worked very well. Could do with a few full body shots in parts too, like the opening, you couldn't see the dead body, lol.

haha cheers for the review

[Tributes of Life]

Alright

It's certainly good for your first submittion and early flash, I'll give it that but there is still some work to be done on the animation and drawing side of things, some parts look okay but others kind of off a little. The layout of the animation and menu was pretty good though, so nice work on that and the sound was clear, but in the last part, you have an error with the calander, it's missing an x, be careful when reusing images, lol.

The point behind it seemed to be more of something between a certain amount of people, it did make sense but without the commentry, it does seem a little confusing at the opening bit and the note would be better if it stayed in one place for a while for people to read it, kind of hard to read something moving fast. But otherwise, a pretty decent effort.

3/5

thanks very much for the suggestion and yeah i screwed up that last red X on the calendar :o oopsie... lol i'll watch my little details next time better. Ty again for the review~!

[Samus and Company]

So-So

Well most of the sprite animation seems to work well which is good and such but the text has some simple errors and a little poor presentation, having it in a box would have looked a little better, though having the speakers image is good, but none of the others speak, so maybe add some diolog for the others, it would make it a little more intresting.

The actual plot seems a little odd too, others having something to say might fix that problem if you can work a story in there. Also the question mark you had at one point looked drawn with the brush tool, I would suggest using the text tool for that with a pixel font or something that looks like it'd fit in.

PicosGhost responds:

Yes, the sprite animation, in my opinion, was well animated, and took quite a bit of my time, I'm glad it paid off :) As for the text, can you tell me what these errors were? Was it the "What's going ON?!" without the apostrophe? ' <--- that thing, and the failure to use commas? If so , thanks, I just looked at it again and never even realized that. Most people liked the presentation of the dialogue though, so I'm not too sure I'm going to change it, but I honestly appreciate the input. (I feel like a broken record! haha) But in the sequel, all of these things will be better, I promise you. And it's up to you guys, the people if you will, to judge whether or not I've gone up a step in animation.

I said this in another review I think, but I really had no plot when I set out to do this, haha :P. But I've managed to make a storyline as to why Mario did what he did to Samus, and I won't spoil it here :D. Damn, the q-mark... How did you know I did it with the brush tool? Great eyes! That's a good suggestion, I might go back and change that, and re-submit :)

I could ask for more than 2/5, but I guess my work spoke for itself. Thanks for your review, I'm happy you took the time to write it.

Intresting

Well it's certainly quite intresting and pretty good, I think the ides kind of works and it set out pretty well, though the laugh was a little out of place and the kid at the end had a smile, donesn't quite work when there's a screaming sound. Anyway, still some pretty good animation and decent graphics, though I wouldn't use stickmen, doesn't really look too good.

The music fit well and most of the sound effects pretty good, also the odd few cuts to what's happening in the real world, though maybe some more in other parts would have been nice, but otherwise pretty good overall.

4/5

Graeme responds:

I can admit the laugh was just for the hell of a refference.
But the smile is a misconception. I was worried people might look at it like that. The big black dot is his mouth. And the line under that is like a chin roll. Like how fat people have a second chin. That's what that "smile" was meant to be.
Don't worry, I won't hold it against you though ;)
