DreamEater's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hamburger's Master Plan]

Interesting story

Ah good old Zelda: Ocarina Of Time music... I really liked how the intro was organized, and the fluid animations here really led me to believe that this might be a gem. Unfortunately it seems like things got a bit slopy after this point.

The vocal work was pretty well done in this flash, and being able to hear everything a bit better was a plus.

Things to take a second look at:
- The story/ animation seemed to take a cliffdive after the CC office scene; maybe put a bit more into these parts?
- The city destruction scene was pretty bland, and poorly done. (I'm all for crude animation adding to the humor of a submission, but this was just plain lazy)

Overall not bad, but could use some work.

[Pilo - The Animation]

Not sure what this has to do with the game x.x

but on it's own this submission is okay.

Everything looks decent for the most part, but I didn't really like that the characters mouths don't move; moving the whole body to signify each character talking reminded me way too much of Veggietales xD. Aside from all that the colors were nice, and the voice acting was well done.

Things to take a second look at:
- This flash wasn't the funniest comedy submission I've seen, I would definitely work on your joke/ dialogue writing a bit
- It would have been nice to see the mouths of each character move; It was a bit confusing without the lip syncing or anything.
- I kind of expected this to actually be somewhat related to the Pilo game

Overall not bad though, just keep at it

[Harold and Edna]

I lol'd :)

This animation was really different, but in a good way!

I really liked the story, and the vocals/ sound effects were actually recorded with rather good quality. The animation was good, but not the best; I really would have liked to see a bit more fluid motions during the "monster battle", and a few other parts. aside from that, I also really enjoyed the originality of the story... I did not expect that ending haha. :)

Things to take a second look at:
- Things could have been a bit more fluid animation-wise, but you're really on to something with this style
- The exchange of dialogue seemed like it could have moved a little faster (I felt like I spent just a little bit too long waiting to hear each characters lines to come out)

Overall you've got some talent, and I expect to see some amazing work from you in the near future :]

ManNSmkyRoom responds:

Well, thank you. Yes, I feel the dialogue moves a little slow in some parts too. I did that on purpose, but now watching it back, I think I may have spaced it out just a little much.

[A Goomba's life Ep 3]

Not too shabby

I really enjoyed the sprite animation here, very fluid and nice looking. :)
The menus, The navigation, and overall layout of this flash also looked wonderful.
I also really enjoyed hearing the different spectrum of voices used for each character. Generally speaking, this flash animation was pretty flawless.

Things to take a second look at:
- Some of the dialog was rather bland, and I didn't find much of the humor to be very great :(
- The story was a tad confusing, but maybe that's just me (I haven't seen the rest of the series after all)

Overall; pretty great effort, but could use some polishing up imo

[The Sugar Claws: F.C.]

Woah!

This was incredible!

The concepts in the comic really, I mean REALLY, took me by surprise!
I never expected the story to get so crazy, twisted, and good! :D

The menu/ navigation/ layout of the whole flash looks wonderful, and I really enjoyed the "cut-scene" like parts at the beginning/ end of this flash.

The artwork was wonderfully unique, and the broad spectrum of bright to dark tones/ colors looked extraordinary! I also really liked how you worked words into the background images of this comic as well; very interesting!

Overall I don't think I would change a single thing about this.
You have some real talent, and do some really great looking/ deep work
I'm definitely a new fan ;)

[-The Gift Giver -]

Not to shabby.

For your first submission, this seems pretty solid!
The lip-syncing seems to be pretty well done, the artwork is decent, and everything seems to flow rather well!

This piece isn't horrible, but it isn't a work of art either; The crude characters, mediocre comedy, and poor storyboarding made this hard to enjoy :(

Things to take a second look at:
- Lack of clarity in the audio made this submission difficult to understand (Haggard's suggestion of subtitles was actually a really great one)
- Crude character design can really contribute to the comedic value of your work (take South Park for example), but you should really focus on your camera angles/ character movement more

Overall solid effort, but could use something more

ManNSmkyRoom responds:

Thanks for watching, think I may have fixed the audio. Fingers crossed!

[-Another Dimension-]

Very interesting! :D

Although some elements of this animation did seem rather childish, I really enjoyed this piece! The 3-D planet was probably the most visually impressive thing to me; I loved how smoothly the background panned along as the 2-D characters moved across the landscape, and the 3-D alien guy was pretty cool as well.

Things I would have changed:
- The edges of most everything in this flash have a rough, nasty look to them
- The 2-D people could have used a little more movement

Besides that though; This is an awesome effort!

Yeah, I know, the 2D people are a bit stiff ;)
Thanks!

[Madness Dance Party 4]

Interesting take on the madness series :D

I loved your take on the original madness character, and the incorporation of the old school madness boom-box was awesome! :D The music you picked for this animation was also a huge plus imo. Boom-Box + Gun = Win.

Things to look at:
- The broken boom-box part seemed like it was slightly underdone; I didn't really understand what happened here until the second watch through.
- The insane camera motion kinda through me off during a couple parts

Besides those things though; I really enjoyed this, and I can't wait to see your next project Nicholas!
