ToastMasterM's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Don't Mess With Pikachu]

What did we learn today?

Ok, I want you to look at everything, say, Johnny Utah has ever made, and compare it to what you have here.

For starters, keep your mouth a safe distance from the microphone, it ruins it to hear people breathing into to it at the end of every sentence.

Second, apply some actual TIME and perhaps more effort into writing a legible script.

3rd, have you even hit puberty yet? 'Cause if that was you doing hte voice acting... well, Newgrounds isn't exactly tailored to your age demographic, by what I've seen and continue to see.

Done and done. Now go learn from your mistakes and grow out your voicebox a little more, or hire someone who has a reasonbly sized one already to do the voices for you.

Improving

Well, it was way better than the sicksons, but yeah, I have to agree with some of the others, nothing actually relevant, although you did have some parts that took me by surprise there ("Well, I guess Squidwards jacking off!" was one) The quality of the animation is a bit better too, so just keep working on it and you'll make some comedy classic someday!

[the 40k: signs of war]

AHAHAHA

Finally, a comedy medium that gets me!

Aww, no Necrons or Sisters of Battle?

Well, looks like you got your work cut out for you then, MAKING A SERIES OUT OF THIS.

Now less talking and more animatinginginginginginging.

[Durgz 2: Path of Truth]

Agreed

I agree with the below post. although seeing as you pretty much wear your youth on your face by way of your talk, we can really expect nothing less.

Before you judge drugs and the people who use them, spend a year in any college dorm/frat house.

Grumio responds:

'S a shame that we're the same age.

And typing doesn't reflect age, unless it's a mauled version of AIM gibberish.

[IF Round 4: vs Cyril P1]

Close, very close

But no cigar just yet. I'm liking that you seem to be using less anime and more of...something else, this felt more like a hybrid style. But I really am starting to get sick of anime, anyone who's taken any sort of art class knows that these days anime is "the easy way out". Seriously, I'm not kidding, took me 2 days tops to actually master it, and it's not like I'm a super art prodigy, I'm pretty mediocre and /or crap at other styles.

The story seems interesting, I might be inclined to watch the rest of the series, but I'm gonna want to see something a little more western(or southern? Is there a southern art style indigenious to that hemisphere?) style, I can't relate very well to this triangular asian stuff, plus I don't like the typical "over exaggeration" when it comes to displaying emotions thats a staple to anime, like when the teal dude says "WHAT?!? Not more fighting..." And he flops his arms all over the place. A slight widening of the eyes and a vague depressed look afterwards would've done the trick, but I know firsthand how hard it is to animate subtle movements like that, which is probably why anime uses over-exaggeration.

But you've clearly got a lot of talent, you're kinetics were great, all the normal movement of the characters felt like they all carried the proper amount of weight, and the scottish/british accents were a refreshing break from the normal whiny, high pitched voices you usually get with the anime genre. In fact, I wish more non-anime animations and such would use that kind of voice acting, it sounds both silly and serious at the same time, it's great!

So keep up the good work, hopefully you can find some time away from any deadlines to refine your style, and come back with a real ass-kicker!
Yes, I must sound like some fancy-pants windbag art proffessor, I can assure you I'm not, I just hate the fact that anime is everywhere now and I can't escape it. It's like it's taking over American youth culture! And, even scarier, adult culture...

Oh and a word of advice, when you had Ominus give that evil smile after his welcoming to "Boy o' Steel' (I think it was after he said 8 stand before him) it felt kind of off... like, his mouth suddenly had melted shut and had split open on his right side. I'm being anal retentive, but whats art without trying to improve and perfect your creations?
8 and a 5, well earned, but come back with something different and better than all those narutards and DBZ fanboys next time, or it be the plank for ye!

Zeurel responds:

Oh aye, theres much to improve i agree!

Trying to get away from teh stable anime style is my current goal, been trying to work on my own atm, taken 4 years so far to weem off it, but its slowly working.

cheers for the review!

[Capitalism and YOU!]

Hmmm

Animation was iok, audio needs some work, I can barely hear what they're saying. As for the author, I think I can safely assume that you are wearing or have worn a Che Guarva t-shirt.

[Awesome Gaiden]

Metaphoricaly delicious!

And how! "I'm just the tutorial level!" That one busted my larynx.
However it was completely SHATTERED when the "Stategy guide" showed up and was killed.

That.....was......AWESOME.

[Dollar]

How literal

When I was told the american economy was being raped by gas prices, I didn't think they meant literally!
Great voice acting!

[More Brawl Taunts]

HA!

The first rule of fur faggotry, you don't recover + generic anime pose.
Even though I dislike anime the way you kind of spoofed it was worth it.
10 and 5.

[Indiada Jodes]

Outdid yourself

That was even better than Irod Bad! I find these movies are even funnier when you HAVEN'T seen the movie yet.

I thought "Ear Land" and the "Freedom Fridge" were the best parts. Can't wait for the next target!
