BillyNapalm's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[garfrield da cat]

Oh my god

Do you mind if I get the whole cartoon tattooed across my back?? It was SOUL CHANGING!

[Rix 1]

An animation it was

You had the basis of a story happening and some nice planned out movement. I found the music to be a little out of place here; it gave me the mental picture of a bunch of college kids laying around smoking weed.

You should give voice over a try instead of using text to explain the story. Maybe do the voices for the characters instead of trying to explain their actions. Don't worry if you don't think you're a good voice actor - no one was when they first started out.

Some color in the characters and backgrounds along with some more detail would be good too.

My opinion would be to focus on making your artwork and animation more detailed/put together instead of moving on to doing more of them. Quality over quantity will always prevail. Learn the basics and build your way from there. It doesn't matter how great of a story you think you've come up with, you won't be able to get it across effectively if your animation isn't up to snuff.

Good work

I liked the music and think you did a great job creating the atmosphere for this piece. I sort of felt that everything went by a bit too quickly, and that there could've been some more story/visuals put in to lengthen things a bit.

But yeah, good job!

Mechabloby responds:

Yeah, the story is a bit quick... it was mainly improvised as I had a stable idea for a new way to animate, but just didn't know what to animate, so I came up with the first thing I could thing of.

Still, thank you for the positive review! :)

[A Day At College]

I want to go to that college

Fun stuff! Sort of like Dad's Home meets Undergrads.

[Clock Crew Restaraunt]

Undescribably indescriptable

If you aren't motivated to build a church in Iraq after seeing this, then you're completely dead inside.

[Great Destiny Man]

Awesomely awesome, as always

Great work champ - I can always count on you to make my terrible and unbearable existence just a little move livable.

How many hours did you put in to this?

Sexual-Lobster responds:

more hours than there are numbers in the universe.

wow shit i hope things get better for you

[Zelda: Lost Prophet]

A learning process

Animation takes a long time to nail down and do decently. The way you're going about it is, in my opinion, the ONLY way people should be doing things - which is by actually doing it. There's no better way to develop your skill than by getting your ass in front of the computer and piling down hour upon hour of animating.

Like another review said, I'd suggest trying a different art style since your characters look very primitive. Sometimes primitive works (South Park), and sometimes it doesn't. Unfortunately, this doesn't.

Nice experimentation with camera moves and scene changes. Keep up the hard work and you'll be drawing alongside the best of them.

HeroPower responds:

Awesome review man. I really appreciate it. The ONLY way to do it - is to do it. Thanks for understanding that. It bugs me when people say really negative things when they've never animated anything before. Yeah I guess I'm really gonna have to take on a new approach in art style in my next one.

Now I'm gonna go watch your animations because of this legit review :)

[Spider Powers 3]

Dude!

Hilarious stuff all the way through - the chair banter at the end made me lose my shit. Nice job!

just2pale responds:

[Left 4 Speed]
