Violet-AIM's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shoot Out]

cool

That 3D car looks great. Maybe have some 3D buildings to go along with it.

Blotsort responds:

Thanks man...at least i know there are some good people on NG...

[MC]

this is good

Hey that's a pretty neat logo....that mechanical laser thing that was carving stuff was well drawn, and the shadow you put there made it look like it was floating in the air. This looks like a good intro to a movie, (you can use it as your logo or signature), but it needs more to be considered a "movie". Nice job anyways.

rotpad responds:

Thanks for your good words and you're right, this doesn't belong on Newgrounds. I just wanted the little drop down box under the vote thingy. Considering my next flash movie will take a grip of time, I threw up something I had already done. Plus I was pretty proud of this when I made it =P.

[No'Stick]

hmm...

Too short, but I like the point you made about how stick figure movies suck. Of course, it would be good if you were to show us more of your skills (how you're not like them) by doing a movie with just good graphics/animation instead of just a flash mocking stick people. That ninja or samurai character that you had was nice, but would've done better in a different setting, like with a scene/a story to go with it, as well as other well-drawn characters.

M0RPHA responds:

Yeah i know that it is short, i will make a story in No'Stick 2
Okay?

[Oratory Hell:Great Escape]

This is good

Nice parody of your school....cool voices (doing voices always takes talent and some acting), the drawings were alright, could be better though. The death scene where the guy kills the student for smoking, could have been smoother. Pretty good for a show put on by one man (unlike some professional studios who make flash). Looking forward to seeing more. Just curious, do a lot of English students go to boarding school or single sex schools? From what I heard from people and what I've seen on movies, it's a pretty common occurrence in England, it kinda makes me glad that I'm here, where boarding schools are more rare, and schools are nearly all co-ed.

Fever responds:

Unfortunately boarding schools are all to common in England - not that many people go to them, but there are a lot of foreign people in them (like me!)

[Fr0sty Tribute]

hmm...

I don't get what's with this Frosty Tribute, so please explain it to me. I was kinda cracking up about how all these guys were making comments about your looks rather than just talking about the movie. That's what you get for putting your picture up there on your profile! Anyways, it's pretty rare to see other female flash animators, hopefully you'll get better. I think that what I liked most about this flash was the song (by Billie Holiday), she has a really good voice, it reminds me of this movie I recently saw, I think it was called "Billy's Hollywood Screen Debut"...okay, not exactly that, but something like that, and it was about this guy who for a short period of time sang like Billie Holiday. Oh yeah, I think it would be good if you drew things rather than just animating some gif images.

Charisma responds:

I know. It's sad. I didn't put that picture in my profile though. Tom did. I swear to god it wasn't me. I didn't choose any photo for that specific reason. Anyway, I made that thing in novemeber, when Fr0sty was getting fired from her cam-girl duties at survivorer. It was a joke, but, if you didn't see survivorer, I guess the whole bon voyage thing seems a little odd. As far as the animating my own thing goes... yeah... I've thought about it. I actually started something, like, two months ago, the only problem is I still have no plot. If enough people are intrested in it, I might just upload it.

[Alien Trouble]

this is alright

The drawings and animation were okay, but could have been better. I think the reason why I gave this a "7" was because it had a lot of options, so it was good effort, plus I'm in a good mood right now. I thought it was funny when I went to the "more than just friends" option. I noticed you used a lot of love songs in this movie, hearing love songs on newgrounds is a rarity. I liked those songs.

alhouse responds:

Thanks Violet, That was my first feature length piece. I appreciate your kind review. peace.

[Eskimo Bob 8]

hmm...

Ya know, I thought I saw more of this Eskimo movie series yesterday. It looks like there's only two, according to the "other movies" thing. Wasn't there one called "Let's go club a seal" or something? Oh well. Nice job, the graphics are okay, kinda simple, but it's the style for the series I guess....I liked the voices, you should have more voices in it.

AlanMidas responds:

Yeah actually there's two of us who make them. toma13 is the other one, he would heave posted let's go club a seal.

[Cool Kids]

this alright

Those two guys look like the guys from the movie "SLC Punk"....why, cause one guy has the blue hair, the other guy (Bob)has the black mohawk. Also, the whole punk/anarchy symbol thing also made me think of that movie. That's not a bad thing, just made me think of them. Why did you end the movie with just a plain white screen?

WOLFMAN7 responds:

Yeah the whole idea kinda thing came from SLC punk, because i like that movie alot, and i like cool kids by screeching weasel so i put them both together!

[Where Is My Mind?]

simple yet effective

I liked the animation in this one, such as the flickering effect. You make it seem like making flash movies is so easy, the way you just keep pumping them out non-stop (of course while having fun doing it too) but with art skills/a creative mind, it's no problem right? I liked that song from Fight Club, went along perfectly with this movie, esp when the mouths were singing.

tomthinks responds:

Well, making these flash movies do come very natural to me. I've always had a thirst for creation and I've had drawing skills since I was 2. They are fun to make, but sometimes I get impatient and rush a little. In this one, I tried not to rush and did alright.The only sign of rushing is that it's too short :) . Thanks for your comments.

[Castlevania Conference]

not bad

I always like watching video game parodies. A few of the reviewers were sorta rude, I hate when people go around putting things when they don't do shit themselves. Anyways, the story was okay, the conversation was good....throwing food at Dracula didn't seem that effective, but burning his house down was. One suggestion: I know you had sound in the beginning part, but how about adding that Castlevania music during the conversation...or is my tv too loud right now that I can't hear it?
You were mentioning to another reviewer that you can play games with an emulator/rom...well, I'd like to get an emulator to play some of those old classics, how do you get one, and is it free and downloadable off the net?

Drug-SeX responds:

Sweet! Hey No Probelem I'll e-mail you the emulator n shit.
