JazLyte's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Knee Deep in Death]

I laughed watching this for some reason

I saw this under "Users who liked this also enjoyed:" on one of my flashes and decided to check it out, the fBf was sick and so were the drawings! Sweet work. I thought it was kinda funny too, just the way the characters moved like gorillas. But I know they did that in 28wL too so that's probably why.

[The Versus]

Trying not to knock on wood?

Not blamworthy at all, but needs work. It's good for a second attempt at flash though, keep it up. It just won't get too far being this short, maybe at least a minute if u want to get better scores.

[The Nut Job (part 2)]

Great Movie!

Just putting up a review for this part too. Although, it's rather short, I dont really get why it's in 2 parts. But great work, the art and animation were really good!

[The Nut Job (part 1)]

Sweet

Great to see original work with good effort, and a funny storyline. Keep it up!

[Race Across The Rainbow]

Great Movie, Very Inventive

I liked the style alot, simplistic, but highly original and I love the song. I'd open the movie just to listen to the music, but I'm not judging you on that so much as how well it went with the flash. One thing I noticed though was that line thickness changed often during animations, it's not a big deal, but I'd say watch that in future movies. Great Job Man, keep up the good work.

[Rejected by NewGrounds]

Not getting blammed is simple.

Just put a strong effort and lots of time in, and don't ask for pity, that's pathetic. Dont be concerned with passing judgement, be concerned with becoming a better animator. Write a script (an interesting one), draw a storyboard, then animate. May take weeks or even months, but who cares. If you like to animate, then you'll be straight when it's done.

[- Move Your Feet -]

Entertaining

You're really versatile man. I like how all your flashes look different than the last.

First year of flash, huh?

Heh, yeah, it's that obvious. Don't worry, by year 2, you'll understand why I gave this the lashing I did. But I'm not gonna diss you, just give you some pointers.
1. NEVER go voiceless. If your movies don't have voice actors, make silent movies and let the story tell itself until you get a microphone so you and your friends can voice act. Or check out the voice acting club in the forums
2. NEVER be without a buildup. Don't let your movie start out, "Why did you kill my father!"
3. Try to steer clear of cliches. I'm still suffering the consequences of a cliched story with my first series even 2 years later. I can tell that you didn't really write a direction for the story or anything if it started out completely open-ended like this. I can tell the whole story just from this one introduction.

Don't worry, you'll be fine, people seem to like it, and I did too. I hope I've helped you out in some way. I can see that by the end of this year, you'll be sweet at flash. I know it. Peace.

[Capture The Flag: Ep 2]

Great Movie!

I didn't see the first episode, but this one had me gripped when he listened to the recording, and suddenly I was all in. The art didn't impress me much, but the story seems really interesting. And so are the characters, albeit the drawing style isn't my thing, but I won't take off points because of my own personal preference.
(A-)

Aeonstars responds:

Thank you very much! The recording seems to be where people get hooked :P. As for the art, that was never the main focus of the flash. I got my tablet and decided that I wanted to tell a story. The drawings are to the best of my abilities and I animate the only way I know how. I use FBF when necessary though. I personally like my style and if other people don't then I respect that. I appreciate you not removing points for that like you said :). You're a very good animator yourself so thanks for taking the time to review! I hope you like ep 3 when it comes out!

[T.e.s.s.o.n.a.s. Ep 2]

Please make an episode 3....

The art isn't Aladdin 3150, but that's good that your style's improved so much, the humor and the writing made it REALLY entertaining! With your better animating skills, no doubt you'd have something better in store.
