Dbmwjo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[- The Nail -]

I liked this...

That Foamy show sucks and so it's good to see someone with talent throwing him away.

Big fan of your stuff and when you insult stuff that I don't like, that makes it even cooler.

[Socklops]

Woah, very trippy

This made me feel weird emotionally. Seriously, the ending was incredible and felt very atmospheric. Very good to toke up to. Best one yet.

[-LSD-DMT-]

Talk about a bad trip.

I was feeling uncomfortable watching him go through the trip, must've been hell to go through it. Anyways, this is very impressive stuff. Very drug trippy and chaotic with the voices and the sounds. Everything looked great and had a very distinct feel to it.

It's really innovative that you used something fairly common to do your halloween piece about. While pretty much everyone else will have garishly dressed serial killers and cliche zombies, you've made a horror story concerning only one person who is being attacked by their own mind. Let's stop for a second and take in how deep that really is... Alright, very good job. One of the best halloween submissions so far.

I'd like to just say that the most impressive thing is the fact that it took you only 19 days to make this. You must've been pulling a lot of all-nighters. And your dedication to this flash really shows. Excellent job.

When I was lying in bed at night with my eyes closed, I realised I was only waiting, hours to fall asleep and how much time gets wasted, so I always got up and worked through the night. I set myself goals like finishing 3 scenes each day to get it done in time. I often did 6 sometimes 10. I couldnt get this freaking movie out of my head.
I´m so damn glad this is done.

And I was actually worried about the fact this has no halloween theme. I mean it´s intended but I´m not sure about how the NG community takes it. But I´m glad it already only pays off from that my original intentions with this movie were. I managed to create the the atmosphere I always wanted to.
I´m so glad it works out.

Thanks alot.

[L1F3: When I'm Hungry]

I liked it.

Once it started I was expecting something stupid and unfunny because of that superman joke (I saw it coming) but really that was the only stale joke. It got funny and made me laugh. The graphics were a little below average but it's fine and the voices were good but fuzzed because of the microphone, but that's fine as well. It's obvious to see that this is made just for the fun of it and so that's cool. It made me laugh which I'm guessing was the point.

I noticed some stuff, that 'Do you like me' joke seems like it came from Family Guy. Try being more distinct ( you did save yourself with the follow up to that joke however) and I noticed the Requiem for a Dream poster. Not really relevant to this review but I thought that was cool. Anyways, I haven't seen any of the other ones but I think I'm gonna go do that now. Good job, keep it up.

[[Old]Mosquito & the Flash]

Pretty Straight-forward

I know exactly what you mean. I hate those ads so goddamn much. I hate that one, the one where you can hear pictures taken, and the smiley-face ones where if your cursor rolls over it you hear some dumb-ass yelling or something.

Anyways, the flash itself is pretty decent. Pretty straight-forward point and so the below average graphics become acceptable since you're not exactly going for anything but a quick word in. Voice-acting was fine the same way the graphics were fine. In short, good job but don't expect the same response if you made a different kind of flash. Usually we'd expect better quality graphics but it went with the style so it's fine.

[Julius Seizure]

Pretty good for an English assignment

But I'm not to sure about a stand-alone flash for Newgrounds. I mean, if you never told me this was just for an assingment for your English class I would've thought that it would be pretty pointless and not very good. But what you've given does work on some merits but only as a mediocre flash. I'm sure you can make a lot better.

So give it a try and make something with a lot more effort. I'm sure that'll be good and won't need a back-story.

[Hello Tomorrow]

Very Impressive.

If this is indeed your first flash, you're something to keep an eye on. I'm pretty confident in saying that if you keep this up you'll be making a lot of great things. The graphics were very nice and I like the way you highlighted the reds. Typically that's a big cliche but you used it very sparingly here so good job. It had a very unique style, almost old-school disney like. The music went well with what was going on and added to the disney style I was saying.

Overall a very promising start. Next time maybe come up with a plot with actors or something, or make it even more surreal.

[V.G. Short]

It was good.

Nice graphics. The hard work you put into this shows greatly. It was pretty funny at times but some of the jokes are kinda stale and sound like they've been used from some other show. Try to use more original humor I guess is what I'm saying. Also, use better audio. The acting was good but it kinda fuzzed out at moments. Get a better mic or move away from the one you have a little more so it doesn't get like that.

Other than that it was pretty good. I liked it.

[2006 Spoon Shorts 2]

Pretty good.

I liked it. The calculus one was my favorite since I'm taking Pre-cal right now and that whole thing sounded like me and my friend when we're in the class. But all of them were pretty funny and quick. It's nice to see some clean innocent humor that isn't corny. The graphics are nice, it looks good and runs smoothly. You didn't short-cut it and everything was balenced. Good job. It had good voice acting too. It sounded diverse even though you apparently did all the voice, that's impressive.

So all in all, a good job. I'm gonna have to take a look at your other stuff.

Wow, thanks a bunch. ^_^

[Invader Zim: TMHSE]

Really Good and A lot like the real thing!

I've really liked Invader Zim for a while and was also a bit disapointed when I found out it was cancelled. But really, all the good things always get cancelled (Arrested Development anyone?). But this fan made toon really came as close to the original one as you can get in flash. Seriously, excellent job.

The graphics looked really good and very close to the original cartoon that probably cost 100,000+ per episode, so you should be proud. The style you've got down. Couldn't see much since it was short but I could make out the same style the original had which we all loved. Sound was good, the voice actors came really close to the real ones but you could kind of tell they weren't really them. It may be the microphone. Also the awkward scene where Dib comes in could've improved by having some bg sound. Complete silence kind of took away from it. And yes, it was all very funny and even in the same way as the one on Nick.

Parodies always seem to come closer to the originals than fan-fics mostly because people who parody understand the material on a high leve. But this is not parody, and it comes exact with the original. Excellent job.
