MchectorII's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[CAVPOLLOS Xmas 2012]

Athough this was simply designed,it was quite enjoyable to watch because its lighthearted humor content that is suitable for everyone.It is also a good lesson for animators too,as what the creator did here was to use images and body language to 'talk' instead of verbal speech(besides the cheeping)as everyone can understand the story easily with or without subtitles.Good work on this animated short and hope to see more soon!

cavpollo responds:

Thanks! It is indeed a little bit hard at times to express a wide variety of feelings with just eyes and wings.
Expect another one by December XP

[1 minute monologue: Gym]

This is quite decent to watch,for a learning animator's submision,maybe viewers have to understand that before giving any negative views on its quality.There are attempts to get some humor into this,like how drawings are used to show the gym 'drives' the creator here 'nuts'.The concept feels more like a gym edition of the 'Game Grumps' series(sorry if this may be a wrong example due to not having enough knowledge of what this series is really about.)We,as a communtiy,should welcome and support these future artists.Good work on this and keep on practicising.

NeonF1sh responds:

Thank you for your review, it really means a lot to me! The animation is purposely like that for the sake of convenience. I've never personally watched game grumps (although I am planning to). The main inspiration here was actually 'A mens room monologue', by PokeGravy. Again, thank you for your input!

[The Haunted Pumpkin]

This animation is funny to watch with a pumpkin wearing a bloodied dress to a party,it is more like a melon with gender issues.However,its short length and the lack of any real plot are letdowns,maybe it should have been made longer even it was for a competition that you missed(sorry about that) and that Halloween has long ended.Maybe a good starter could be how the pumpkin became haunted and how people would react to this when they find out the truth.Be creative with these ideas or any of your own and that should make a pretty good piece of work.It will take longer and is a lot harder,but in the end,it is worth it.If it is fine by you,a second part would be greatly appreciated.Good work on this and good luck!

Zeebra responds:

Thank you very much Mchectorll, for your indepth and helpfull review. The animation part was completed in 4 days and the menu took a few more days therefore it has been uploaded so late.
Keep your eyes peeled for more Ani-Motion

[World According to NINJA]

Even though it is only the pilot episode,it is already well created in terms of its overall quality,characters and storyline in which the more 'serious' scenes are balanced with some humor and so, engaging the viewer to see what happens next,instead of boring them out.The ending scenes show that the plot thickens and the stage is set for the next part which depends on the creator to decide and maybe add more depth to the characters to make it more interesting(For example,the protagonist,Ninja,could face such a problem that he would set his mind straight and not just focus on his 'I am so awesome' attitude and maybe a change in his character as he continues in his quest but do as you will,this is just an example.)Overall,a second part is fully expected to satisfy the 'hunger' of fans which it has won over with this episode.Keep'em coming and good work and good luck always!

SOMNIUMANIMATION responds:

Wow, Thank you for such positive words! That was a great review. Its funny not everyone understands what we are trying to do.
You got EVERY bit of story and character we threw out there and even saw where we "Might" go with them. THats amazing. We appreciate your review! Thank you so much.

[The Fox and Wolf]

Your work really deserve two thumbs up as it shows from its high quality and plot development of how much time and effort you have put in it.Well done and highly enjoyable to watch especially from the characters' behaviours and facial appearances.Really hope that you will make develop this further and make it into a series!It feels like the animated movie 'The Fox and The Hound' only with a different animal but you get the point.Maybe someday you could get to that quality.
(Note:The moral of this story is to always have a second and bigger escape route if you are going to burglarise a house with a glutton.)

shazams responds:

Aww man thanks! I really do love working with facial expressions. They're so much fun.
Though I won't make a series out of this. It was just a commission and I have other projects I'd really like to work on.
