JazLyte's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[TTA Episode 073.5]

That was actually...Really good

Man, this is really different, a cartoon made up of fanmade sprites but with original drawings, seems shaky but you made it work! Nice. I know the characters weren't completely original, but it was entertaining nonetheless I give it an A. I had no idea you were the Parody Rangers guy before either; keep it up, you got a good thing goin'. ;)

[Joey's Bright Idea]

You really wore it out man

I just didn't like it, I cracked a grin when the guy first mentioned selling bees, but from there, I started finding myself fiddling with an exention cord in boredom. The concept just wasn't the material for a whole cartoon. Bees. Okay, bees...bees...guy sits on giant bee, bees are the shit...So gangsta too, even threw in some black people to rave about the bees... I am so straight, wake me up when it's over. Granted, you can draw pretty alright though. Some fBf would be nice. 3/10.

Why do you keep sending the same movie in?

I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and guess that you don't speak English or something, but you make a movie, you send it in ONCE, you're not supposed to keep making alternate accounts sending in the same movie over and over, c'mon man. I must have seen this same movie go through at least 4 times, and you did the same thing with the "episodes"

[Chronicles of a Demon Ep2]

Overrated

Not nearly as good as the score or the reviews say. Sorry, just the way I see it. The art's very simple, rushed and undetailed, so you would think, "Oh, well it must be well animated or have a lot of frame-by-frame." but you'd be wrong. Some guy and his friend go to hell, become demons and they discuss it for what felt like ten minutes and just when you think something interesting is about to happen, bam, 'to be continued'. I've seen better. I couldn't watch it all the way through the first time it was so boring, I predicted it would get around 2.9-ish at that point, but I was wrong. As for the "humor", I laughed at no stage of this movie. As for the art, when the guy became a devil, his ear looked like a lump on his forehead with rings hanging from it. Style, there wasn't any, nothing to se it apart from the rest. Sound was okay, but the voices were boring and generic as hell. No violence, no interactivity but I guess they weren't needed. I don't wanna sound like I'm picking at you, but I really didn't like it. Maybe I was lost as far as what genre this is supposed to be... I'm all for genre mixing, but there were no traces of comedy, action, drama, suspense, horror or even devoted artistic expression. But the people here seem to love it, so whatever, man. I won't bug you anymore.
Overall Score: D+

Darkar responds:

As long as it is a good and well-based review it's perfect for me. Trust me, I'll keep in mind what you're saying. Thank you!

You all don't get it yet?

This is a joke, he's sending in the same movie over and over under different names recycling the same animations and what not. It's not for real, somebody's making fun of crappy anime artists under an alias! lol From the second I heard the digital speech I knew it was just somebody playing a (hilarious btw) prank. Funny though XD

[Sci-Fi Guys 4]

I'm warming up to it

I'm warming up to it now, this one was pretty interesting. It didn't make me cry laughing like RAB, but it is entertaining. I like that you used all original music too, that's a good touch :). I knew it would improve as it got later on. I know you made this a while ago, how many episodes did you finish?

[Jargon: Pilot Part 1]

Good! But some major flaws...

I'll start out with the good points.
For one, the characters wer pretty funny and interesting. Not much was said about them, maybe you could have done a little introduction for all of them like you did with the sadistic frog dude. Also, the writing wasn't bad at all, nor were the character drawings. A bit lazy at times, but solid enough. However, one thing ruined it: The Animation. The animation was terrible and really, most of it wasn't how you drew it, it was the FPS you chose. What was it like 5 frames per second? That didn't work, man, maybe study the walk cycle a little better too.
All and all, it wasn't bad, the humor was entertaining enough and the length was perfect, but please choose a different framerate next time, at least 10-12. Othe than that, you did a good job, have great ideas and I look forward to the next one. :)

TheRedSkick responds:

Thanks, your right about the frame rate, I only had a few weeks to get this done so I had to rush it a bit, also this is just pilot so I have jumped in to the middle of the story, I'm glad that the characters came through for most people. When I start the series proper the animation will be of a better standard as well as the voice acting, thank you for your comments.

[Sci-Fi Guys 3]

Well...I like RAB better

Reason being, these just seem so rushed, as in they seem to be out way too fast, and it doesn't seem like there's as much power into it. You're a pretty familiar face here on NG and I can see that SFG is gaining popularity and you are a funny dude who can make a dang good cartoon, but I don't get that same rare hilarity that I got from RAB, something's missing ya know. You do put these out kinda fast, maybe it's just me. But I can't even make myself watch the whole thing at once a lot of times. It'll probably get better though as time goes on, I guess you shouldn't pour all you got into just the first episodes. Sorry for the six, just bein' honest. Good luck. Peace.

Dave responds:

I made this toon in 2000, so it's definitely not going to be up to 2003-2007 RAB standards. Read the description first, ya danged idgit! Thanks for watching. Love, Dave
