Red-Aardvark's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[DBZ Vegetto's Bloodlust 2]

Woah, turn the captions lock off, eh?

Yeah, yeah, the animation certainly shines of hard work, the length of the film is stupendous (despite the complaints from the dial-up users) and it's certainly gotten a good notch in the weekly 5...

..BUT (and there's a big but)
The biggest thing in this movie is that it lacks creativity in all aspects. I mean, tributes are fine and all, but everyone and their grandpa has already made a blurb of the decades-worn dbz series (which wore itself out before our very Newgrounds was around). It's quite obvious that hearts were poured into this, but it really lacked my interest. as well, it's understandably hard to make the blast animation fit with the pixils, but any paint program could fix that minor detail.

Idiots riding their fat asses on internet memes

Why do people still care about this poor escuse for ratings? Yeah, it's a wiggling clown dick, we get it already. Enough. Is this the only flash you've been able to reach past the blam check points? About something everyone and their cousin had processed in their flash that took 3 minutes to make?

bodom-child responds:

this used to be a different video, somehow it got changed to a tricky video that was made later. thanks for the salty review though edgelord.

[Finger Puppet Matrix]

When will these idiots get it?

Do you really think that the creator of this cartoon intended it for Newgrounds humor? Do you believe he's going to change the dialog when it's original audio from the movie? Try reading the comment description (or better yet, his website) the before you try your greasy hands at a review you have no idea how to handle. Just like it says above, this is compressed from an .avi film not originally intended for 5mb compression. I doubt the author here is going to "redo" the entire movie because someone suggested so.

[Scrolls]

Please...

To be honest, this trailer screams out the use of a generic (if not a tutorial example) of a man walking (with the addition of making him shaded in and a sword jutting out of his back)

this isn't a trailer, it's a terrible folly on your behalf

[Assassin .:The Matrix:.]

If you thought I was mean before..

This is where I get really harsh..

Follow my instructions carefully. Take the poser animation CD and bury it underground. deep. Next, remove the Macromedia Flash shortcut from your desktop and hopefully that'll keep you from revealing any animation to the light of day.

No one, and I mean, NO ONE in their right mind would want to watch this in it's entirety with any functioning soundcard. some have the common descency to NEVER use annoying sound files in cartoons, but you thought it'd be great to loop it, eh? How long did it go on for, anyways? A MINUTE?

After I throw my speakers out the window in a torrent of sharded glass do I realize this really IS a fan-series of the matrix. I supposed it was a horrid joke like "Hybrid Rainbow" or something. I'm still not healed over your audacity to make that sound FX prank.
If A matriculated fan-toon couldn't get any worse, it turns out to be a book? Honestly, people don't watch movies and cartoons to read anymore (ever since the fourties). It may be dramatic if it's spaced between alpha effects, but this was just a short-story for fuck sakes

Please, we know that poser graphics are cool and all, but only when used properly. Let us end the pain and suffering, Jot.

[Assassin 2]

all I can say is "Huh?"

It was like trying to understand the plotline of a japanese commercial! everything went too fast and the dialog zipped through like subliminal messages, thus making all the scenes utterly undeterminable. really, you deserve a ribbon for confusing victims

[Blade:The Animated Series]

Uhm... alright..

Is this a series based off of the comic book character Blade, or the Hollywood movie blade?
And was this recorded over a microphone at the computer? I thought I heard something in the background, and by the looks of the other comments that's pretty confirmed. In all seriousness, is this a comedy or a dramatic series? I thought the idea of him walking around on the streets in daylight cutting up regular looking joes was pretty funny (note: silly animated blood, good touch). If so, I'd certainly like to see the introductory episode in the future!

[Hybrid Heaven Episode 1]

what... the... fuck..

cut and paste frames of generic 3D bodies combined with the droning music loop blanketing really exaggerated voice acting (but, as you said, you already knew that).

I ignored the comments made by other users, I tried giving this a shot. I also tried to watch this to the end, really, I did. I just couldn't pain myself sitting through the slow and static scenes/shots... If it should hurt to watch it, it isn't that exciting (even for a comic-book style action series)
Try changing camera angles more often(even if quite a bit of animating is in order)

All I'm trying to say is that it felt like a long awkward moment watching this.

[Bonus Stage #3: Character]

"swing the bat, ta-kun"

hahaa, fantastic series, funny characters, and some other great stuff that I failed to mention following words like 'amazing' or 'incandescent' or 'illuminous'

something like that. Also, quick and funny reference to furi kuri in there, loved it

[Wizard Power]

You're a killing machine, Charlie Brown!

fantasmo, I must say. Utterly, ridiculously, bresh-fresheningly entertaining. It's a seizure-inducing mentos of fun. If anyone has an idea of how long it takes to make an (f)animutation, this would appear to be sculpted by the tiny hands of artisan gnomes. How fast is the framerate, anyways? colours going that fast combined with the mouse-drawn animations boggles my mind. No, really, it does.
I need to go lie down
