TideofDarkness's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[RedHand]

Where to get started

Animation: Great. Stick Figures, but well done to say the very least.
Music : Also great, always fitting the mood.
Dialogue: As previously stated, using big words only have meaning if you
know how to use them, and that obviously was not demonstrated in this
flash. This became exceedingly apparent when you spelled compatibility
wrong, spell checks can go very far.
VoiceOvers: Awesome...For the most part. I feel like the "tough guy" voice
for the main character is ridiculously forced and cliched though.

And I also had the same issue with the movie stopping after the voice. I had to reload the flash and select a different part each time. Fairly obnoxious and there
isn't really any excuse to have this uploaded with such a critical flaw.

The Scene Select section also doesn't work, why did you upload partially finished flash?

That being said, the animation was great and I would certainly be interested in seeing more of it in the future.

Last Samurai:

Nathan Algren: You want me to kill Jappos? I'll kill Jappos.
Colonel Bagley: I'm not asking you to kill anybody.
Nathan Algren: You want me to kill the enemies of Jappos, I'll kill the enemies of Jappos... Rebs, Sioux, Cheyenne... For 500 bucks a month, I'll kill whoever you want. But keep one thing in mind: I'd happily kill you for free.

Shayphis responds:

Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you found that Last Samurai easter egg :)

And some of the problems existed only after i submitted this here, i'm try to fix those as soon as i can.

[Record of Dragon Burial 1]

Great Animation!

But as previously stated. You should be working on Surface, not on this.

Everyone who I've shown surface to has anxiously been waiting for the next few episodes.

[Super Mario bros Z ep 6 (old series)]

ITS OVER 9000!!!!!

Perfect score for that one line.....i fell off my chair laughing, cause as soon as he said "power level", i knew it was coming...

The breaker beam brough back good memories too...that was a bitch to deal with in super mario RPG......you really have some talent for this...keep it coming.

[Death's Curtain Ep.01]

OH lord.

Can only imagine how many "hardcore" christians this is going to piss off..

Anyway extremley decent flash, one of the best on newgrounds in my opinion. Dark and funny at certain points, I couldn't help but laugh when the guy cut his wifes head off.

I did jump a little bit during the sleep scene...I'll admit that..

Ignore all the jackasses who have no flash movies submitted and are trying to give you tips on something they have no experience about.

SickDeathFiend responds:

glad you dug it

[Super Mario bros Z ep 5 (old series)]

Axem Rangers omg..

Mario RPG...its all coming back to me

Your 10 was set as soon as I saw that

[Red and Yuffie the movie]

Haha... too true.

Rule #1 of Flash Making :

NEVER CREATE A FLASH THAT DEPICTS FF7 IN A NEGATIVE WAY.

Some people here are way too obssessed over it and will vote 0 regardless of quality..

Anywho, Beings that FF7 was probally my favorite game ever, I was able to pick out quite a few of the jokes...they worked quite well..

"How about we use a final fantasy that is not final fantasy 7"

Will NEVER Happen. lol..

Anywayz, applause.

[Kingdumb hearts 2 part 1]

Hum...

usually spoofs have something to do with the story line... but this was completley off..

You got so many parts wrong, I almost wonder if you even played the game.

But nonetheless, it was a decent flash...even if i am KH fan and thought KH2 was an incredible game...

RogerregoRRoger responds:

well it's loosely based on Kh2, so it's my interpretation. I might not completely follow the story but all jokes should have some bit of truth in them

[Believe IT!]

For the informed.

The whole "Believe it" thing started when naruto was undergoing translation by the idiots who do the dubbing.

Dattebayo(you may recognize the name to be the popular subbing group) is a ending phrase in the japanese language. Honestly it means nothing, and is not even translatable to anything, its basic meaning is to just re-enforce your previous statement.

Oddly enough, the translators were too stupid to ignore this, and instead added a fake translation of the word. and "Believe it" was created. Why the hell they did this I have NO idea.

But if you watch a raw version of the anime(or subbed) you will notice that in pretty much every sentence that naruto says "Dattebayo", in the dubbed version he will say "Believe it".

Now that I'm done my little explanation.

Good flash, the dubbers really do need to stop being retarded.

bumwolf responds:

Well the point I was trying to make in this was how annoying repetition is in any language. If I could speak Japanese I would do one in that language as well. It's just bad cartoon writing it was cute for the first 10 or so episodes but it's annoying now. Plus the current filler arch Dattebayo is spoken so much I can't stand watching them anymore wait that was the crappy storytelling LOL.

[The Adventures of Steve 1]

BRILLIANT! But on thing...

When steve starts shooting the zombies....(before video game parody attack)

WTF IS THAT SONG CALLED. I KNOW I"VE HEARD IT BEFORE.

Now im searching all over for it.

if anyone can answer that for me, i appreciate it.

good flash all in all.
