Guidodinho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dragon Ball Z - Fukkatsu No F - Thrue Final Battle (parody)]

You were pretty lazy, looping and re-usig so many animations. But they were drawn and animated with great care as I cloud clearly see. Also, it was hilarious.

You should totally make an animated GIF of Goku and Vegeta both slapping Frieza at the end, and slap it into the art portal. Cause I'm sure it's gonna go all over the internet if you do that .

hinca responds:

man i now it looks lazy but, the amount of things i have learned by doing this kind od stuff, ufff this is the only one a have made complitly of re-used animation from the show 'cus in so many chapter is hard to find the right scene hahaha so i usualy re-draw separeted scenes to see what else can i learn haha.
and yeah, i'll gave it a try with the gif.
thanks!! :)

[Nebula Girl: A Lonely Star]

It looks and sounds FUCKIN NEAT! Also, I'm kind of supprised I haven't ever seen any serious drama done pixelated before.
The first few seconds in, I kinda felt annoyed to hear the computer voice talk so caring and sympathetic (since I'm used to computer voices only talk cold and factual, or like a butler who doesn't give his oppinion, like Jarvis from ironman) but he quickly grows on ya, with his friendly face chillin on the dashboard.

Also pretty cool how as a viewer, you don't care if she's gonna be resqued, but if she's gonna be able to beat that game or if she's gonna run out of power. Don't know about the rest who watched this but I cared more about the gameboy problem than the whole stranded in space issue :p

The only beef I have with this animation is personal. And that's the name of the main character. All of the Ambers I've known and seen were totally selfish, egocentrical and rude cunts. But it would be bullshit to take off points for that. And hey, this might redeem the name a bit for me :p

Hope you're gonna continue working on this.

Also, the voice actors did a fine and dandy job ;)

ClockworkPixel responds:

Thanks for this great review! Sorry about the Amber thing haha hopefully this can change your mind and the caring more about her gameboy is wanted I really wanted people to care about and prohaps trying to piece together the story before this with dialog and background clues but mainly caring for her beating the game. I hate A.I. That turn evil well hate might be a strong I'm just sick of it, I wanted to create a nice A.I. You'd like to see on your phone or something :)

[Out of Order 1]

Great! Looking forward to episode 2! ^_^

Loved the background and character style.
The characters look drawn simply (of course you animate on your own instead of having a big-ass team to animate it so you cant have that many details and have it do-able) but they aren't looking cheaply animated. And that way it's really looking more like it's a chosen style choice instead of a natural compromise you have to make as an animator.

The voice acting was great to. They put up some great voice. Not only sounding that they can do a good voice but you can also clearly hear there people know what they're doing with voice acting.

Little point of improvement to the voice actors though. The voice acting itself can great, but I think the voice actors should pay a little more attention of the articulation. English isn't my native language but when watching other series in english, most proffessional voice actors manage to articulate their sentences a little more clear than you would actually speak in real life, and I as a foreigner can still easily understand everything said. Not that I couldn't understand jack shit. It's just a a foreigner i had some more trouble with certain parts clearly understanding everything.

So, yeah. Kinda small thing i'm trying to tell but I needed a little more explanation to make sure I got the general idea across :p

kmau responds:

I know what you mean, I'm from germany and I just can't understand a few english-speakers very well. In movies etc. however most (voice-) actors utilize a clear "school english" non-natives are more familiar with.

The simpler symbol animations ARE a compromise! I wish I could've had the time to do everything frame by frame.

[SS - The Flower of Life]

too much information XD

Gotta re-watch this a couple of times and try and draw the flower myself. But it does pretty good sence so far. Except for the alien part. I personally think that the cropcircels are artworks made by people.

RiverJordan responds:

Consider the fact that all of these sacred geometric crop circles are made absolutely perfect, and would be next to impossible to be made to that level of detail by a single person in a single night, especially without a helicoptor to see it with.

And now consider the fact that these sacred geometric forms haven't been known for over 3000 years by the average man, and even when it was known, it was sacred and studied.

Do you really think humans could have made such intricate designs that match the ancient forms just by coincidence?

[gw chapter 3]

meh..

The story didn't make any sence to me, so I went and checked the the first one....than the second one and it still didn't make any sence to me XD
And having seen the previous 2, I gotta say that you did better on the others than you did with this one. The drawings looked better in the others and i didn't really see any backgrounds in this one. But the little dress-up game was nicely done.

I think you should either color each picture or spend more time on the drawings and put in more detail and backgrounds. Because your drawing style is a pretty simple manga style and styles like that can easily look cheap. And by coloring or putting more detail in it, it will make a HUGE difference.

A-Shadow-14 responds:

yes i know XD, but the first chapters are a bit old.. XD
after chapter 4 it looks better

[Turd Eating Cat]

Hot diddley damn!!!

That was facking amazing dude! Overal animation was just incredibble. And the pixelated thing worked out perfect.
It also felt really nostalgic. Like years ago when i was a little snot-nosed brat, i used to buy little games on a floppy disk at the Blokker....ah...good times man...good times. Although they didn't really have any games about turd eating cats, but i think you know what i mean :p

aap responds:

Haha, my brother and I always bought these floppy disks with shareware and freeware too. Good times indeed!

[Train Vs. Dark Yuki]

Finally!

Finally a sprite animation with draglade sprites on newgrounds! XD
It wasn't the best i've seen, but hey, it's better than my first submission here. So you did a pretty good job.

Things i think you can improve:
The match-up. It's not that yuki vs train is a bad choice or anything. It's just that the sprites don't match in size. Yuki's just way bigger than Train wich looks kinda odd.
And if i were you i'd keep yuki in his normal color palette, he's already dark yuki if you consider he uses a dark g-con and all, and something went wrong on his recoloring (i think) and that's his face. I think you only wanted to do his eyes red. But in some sprites some other parts of his face and his arms went red too. Wich looked kinda silly. Like he ate too many strawberries and made a mess :p
And i think you could do a bit less with the shaking camera. You don't need to create an earthquake if someone gets punched in the face, if you know what i mean.

But the overall, the action is done pretty darn good. I only hope the next one will be a bit longer though.

Kinosashi responds:

Ya I realized something was messed
Don't worry tho ill fix these problems by the next animation

[Mario Vs Sonic Entry]

i don't agree

I think the beginning kicks ass, just like the rest of this flash.
And was that ifrureadthisdie's "luffy vs sanji" in the background, at the beginning?

DarkZeroProductionZ responds:

Yes it is, haha...

[boy jesus]

Short but f*cking brilliant!

This really shows that jesus was a kid too and that nobody is perfect. He was human after all.

But i still wonder: how many times did he kill that bird before? :p

peixeaquatico responds:

yeah thanks
