Preternatural's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic'sQuestForPower3(P1)]

At times like these, I love not being epileptic.

If you like overwhelming power and speed, incessant lightshows and incredible moves that the original characters don't have, this is the thing to watch.

Some things that I'm sure you've spotted, but didn't do anything about it:
1) The mouth animations weren't pixel art.
2) Use of bitmaps when it wasn't really needed. (when Shadow and Sonic finished their battle and talked for a while, for instance)

The cast consisted of original sprites, some edited sprites and a few recolors.

You'd get a 10 in violence, but there wasn't any blood. Also, I understand that it took you over a year to complete, I could see that a mile away. (if you're like me, you probably got lazy and slacked off many times)

Great, I liked it. If I were to work on another sprite movie, which is totally possible, I'd gladly collaborate with you, or any other gifted animator. (my last submission was not too long ago, yesterday)

[Sonic Epoch ep. 4 Teaser]

Some deep observation skills I have.

I dunno. You took random pics from google and your old flash, threw them together and pretended that was a trailer, preview, whatever. Explain.

FatBadger responds:

1 pic from google, 1 pic from epoch 3, another pic from 3 that i ripped off, redrew...so doesnt count, and a few from epoch 2. Everything else was new, ripped mostly from Sonic 2.

[WWII Part 1- The Landing]

Hmmm...

What's a tank doing on the beach? I doubt they even HAD tanks when that happened.

Bad mix of vector and pixel art; that's basically what cost this movie the most.

SbenixNG responds:

Well, they did have tanks at that time. There was even tanks on that beach after the main ships came in after the infantry had breached the beach head. There was fake tanks in it though, the kind in the movie that we dont even have today.

[Sprite Crew Tournament]

No, it doesn't "roxx0rz".

So bad. So bad.
I know you sprite crew members identify to an object, because I visited your BBS once; but there's a reason why sprite sheets are named so; because they contain more than just 1 freaking sprite.

Also, with your current spriting/animating skills, you hardly deserve the right to create an association such as yours.

The music was dumb, repetitive and mind-numbing. I watched the whole thing just to see if it would get better, but I was sadly disappointed.

MarioRed responds:

i have only had flash 1 month dude.. chill out.. i love the sprite crew!

[Mario:Plumber of the Pipe]

Don't need no stinkin' jury.

Did you actually import a poor .JPG file in Flash, leave some white pixels around the sprites, animated them in one of the lamest ways I've seen and then to top it off made the file 5 MB big?

You are proven guilty of being a n00b at Flash. Therefore, you shall practice Flash for the next 9 months before submitting something new to the portal. Case closed.

[FinalFantasy:Newgrounds 2]

When I'm tired I make very short reviews.

You have very good ideas, hmm hmm. Tom Fulp, Tricky, SBC, and everything...

There were some flaws in the animation, and the sprites were poorly edited, but I liked it nevertheless.

[Daily2oon08102005]

Jesus helped me write this review.

Do you really think what you make is actually better than anime? Think again. I'm not going further than this on the subject.

Ok. This has got to be the lamest Daily Toon... at least for this week. I mean, there were only 2 movies, and the second one being rather (very, very) pointless. For my single positive statement in this review, I'd like to say that I liked the scene where they cut each other apart. That's all.

TheStarSyndicate responds:

first you say theres too many movies to judge fairly.

Than you say there's not enough movies in todays Daily2oon.

Make up your mind.

[The RobotWars Episode VI]

And I thought this was worth 1.50

AWH, you can't be serious! 2.90 for THIS?
The biggest flaw is the crappy animation. I don't even know how you managed to screw up the X symbol in the preloader.

RicPendragon responds:

Its better than anyof the "movies" you made, atleast mines got a story
