Preternatural's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sprite Sprite Sprites!!!]

This is your subjective point of view.

"STEP FOUR: This is the most difficult step. Import your file, edit, copy, paste. It may be difficult at first but hang in there fellow spriters!"

Making sprite movies isn't spriting.
Actually, your whole argument about "how drawing is much better than sprites" doesn't make much sense; artists can draw their sprites, just like you draw in Flash. Drawing and spriting have something in common: they both need skills, don't you agree?

So, if I have explained myself correctly, you fail at being both an artist and a philosopher, because you didn't consider sprites like "art".

Any questions?

soccerlord8 responds:

OK. Yes, oh Sprite Lord, thank you for enlightening me...I had no idea that you could draw such difficult pixelated images of perfection. It must be so difficult to do so...because pixel cartoons are so very complicated. I will now consider sprites the highest art of all. Picasso who?

[Stop Crying - Part 3]

Sweet emotional goodness.

Very emotional, mostly at the end.

There's a technical thing I want to point out. See, graphic intensive scenes can be transformed into a simple .JPG bitmap with Photoshop and still look great; that way, you scenes would run smoother and the transparency effects wouldn't completely "mess up".

XSstudio responds:

I didn't know this bitmap thing can solve the problem. I'll definitely try that out. Thanks for your tips!

[just2pale tribute]

Omg doppleganger.

You just made me want to try it for myself, damn you! I wanna have a piece of that fun, too.

just2pale responds:

haha,,, there's only one piece left,, yum it was good haha

[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!

[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

[Billy Doomsday 2]

Oh, the possibilities.

Unless Billy can transform oxygen into helium, which is very unlikely, I don't think he has the ability to fly.

Err. It looked pretty good until I actually saw billy.

z7xfla responds:

It's just a cartoon. =P
