UltramasterBDJ's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[[2006] REBOOT 6]

"hopefully someday I will get recognition"

Yeah I hope that for ya too.

This is outragious, this is on for a couple of days already and has only 2 reviews and 804 views?!
Hell, even a flash under judgement gets more attention. (err I guess)
What's wrong with Newgrounds today????

I don't even understand why neither this nor any of the previous episodes were fronted, they were definatelly worth it!

v__v

I hope you keep up this excellent, highly artistic work, and this doesn't discourage you to make more of these.

Maybe if you would add a subtitle after the "REBOOT" like... "REBOOTX/subtitle ("X" standing for the number) it would get more spontanous viewers... dunno...

[Stupid Mario Bros. 2]

hint

Just one idea...
In contrast to what is being done in most of these "Mishaps"/"Outtakes" etc., it would probably be a good idea NOT to summarize what's going to happen in the next scene, or else some people might be able to see the "humorous twists" commint miles away.
And then it isn't funny anymore. :-/

...uhhh the last scene was at least somewhat like that.
Take this as constructive criticism, hope it helps! :-)

[[2006] REBOOT 5]

extraordinary

I have been following your series, and this seems to be quite the best epsiode up till now.

Overall I like the scenario, the "error"-effects, the graphics (making things minimalistic CAN in fact be hard), well, everything!

Keep working on it;
I will keep watching it.

[Zelda: Don Keyote 3]

victory of a non-flash movie on a flash-site

Congrats on this really funny series.
I also watched a couple of your other movies, hm, months ago actually. "Super Ash Bros" is freakin' awesome B-movie-style.

Screw those who give this a low score just 'cause "you didn't animate" - there are also OTHER types of movies you can make, not only flash animation.
(ermmm... please be so kind to ignore my "DK on drugs"-NG submission[s]... it relativly sux compared to my latest stuff... some of it I *might* submit to NG one day... whatever, the stuff *I* do is also radically different from yours)

Uhhh and speaking of it... How did you manage to squeeze your movies into such a low filesize while having such a good quality and framerate?? (hence the 8 for graphics)

TX2 responds:

Oh yeah! I remember DK on Drugs. Barrytoon though that was Nuts.

The Main Reason the quality is as good as it is and still within 5 Megs is because I made sure to keep each one no longer than 2 minutes.

[Pacman - The Movie]

Perfect!

This was extremely funny as hell, and a highly original idea it was too.

No one expects something like this to be made out of a game like Pacman... heh, the odd thing is, *I* am actually working on "TETRIS: The Motion Picture" right now. ^^
It'll also be my first flash movie lol ^^;;

[The People's Mario]

very original

That was f***ing hilarious;
Seeing Mario smashing Goombas THAT way, yeah, impressive!

A very original concept, and well executed.
Decent graphics, too.

[Sonic X CC Trailer]

Just one question

Why isn't this on the frontpage?

Or furthermore, why isn't this already in the list of the best 50 flashmovies on NG of all time?

OK I don't know the criteria, but right now this submission has a score of 4,30 - and with that it would be No. 3 or even 2 on whole Newgrounds!!!

Not to mention you did an excellent job and of course I can't wait to see more.

Is it going to be split into multiple parts or will it be one large thing?

[Metal Slug VS S.Meg]

Excuse me, but... WTF?

WTF?
Did you accidently upload the previous episode of your "MegaMan Adventure"-series???
But then again, in you're author's comment you're saying it's episode 4... but you already submitted episode 4 on 24th of September 2005!!
O.o""

The movie has a different "Buzon presents"-intro though.

I don't get it.

Anyway I liked you're series nethertheless. 8/10, 4/5
But I don't understand why you submit the same thing twice, or did I miss any hint saying "new and improved"???

[Sonic's Look Alikes]

Nice clip, fits good to the music.

OK, please take the following as constructional criticism.
(Errrrrr.... Me German so English be not perfect don't sometimes. :P)

There should have been more of a plot instead of "just" a bunch of fighting scenes put together, plus that one scene with Shadow and Maria (I mean... we already know that she's dead...).
Ummm, probably you should use a different "effect" for the background when Sonic is running/riding his bike (?!).
It's a bit weired to see the same "Playing SA2 is habit forming"-poster scrolling across the screen over and over and over and over again. Maybe the background-panorama should simply be a bit longer and more blurred...

Nethertheless, 7/10 isn't bad, it was a nice clip, and the feeling of the music always went with the movie.
BTW...
My guess would be that the music is from "Sonic The Hegdehog The Movie", is that correct?

Vixin-McCloud responds:

You guessede correctly! As I mentioned before that was sort of an art piece. Most music clips don't usually have much of a story to them anyway (besides I couldn't think of a way to fit one) I know that you and most of the world already knows that Maria is dead, but at the time Sonic Adventure 2 Battle was the newest release so I was trying to keep with that "present" time. About the background. I'll admit I see your point about the repeating "Playing SA2 is habit forming" poster. I could say that I'm trying to promote the game, but that's just plain corny. At that time I knew shit about altering backgrounds so I had to word with what I'd got. Still, like you said, it isn't bad and at least you liked it.

[[2006] REBOOT]

awesome work

This flash was a very creative and artistic piece of work.
I liked how you made the shadings on the pixelated characters.
Looked almost like an old old-school adventure game (uhhh like Monkey Island or something), only even older. ^^"
Pretty cool actually.

These "incorrectly displayed characters" on the blackboard in the last scene were also giving you somehow the impression of this being some odd sort of computer world. I liked that.

Only the music wasn't my thing, but as it added to the overall athmosphere, so no minus-points for the overall rating.

I voted 5.
