ornery's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[He Stole My Teddy]

The way flash movies should be

Really brings me back to the good ol days of NG, when politically incorrect was the way to go. I miss those days and wish more flash movies were like that while maintaining the quality shown in this one.

Meebs responds:

Thanks, you understand why this is edgy.
People need to stop acting so lame.

[Hiv and Aids]

Some things good, some things bad.

The animation and sound fit nicely. I particularly like how you showed the infections by coloring red or white, very effective. But your facts need some looking into, especially if this is for school. Gays have equal rate of HIV to that of straights. Its spelt "Africa" (no k). The prostitutes fact was unnesscary and probably just a guess anyway. When you showed Africa, you highlighted a few countries, yet one of them wasnt South Africa (which has the highest HIV rate in the world).

Kk-dis responds:

Sorry about the Afrika thing, i just translated it from Danish lately, and i completely forgotten about changing "Afrika", which is spelled with a "k" in Danish..
Thanks

[Star Day: Frankiedaman]

Dissapointing.

It started off slightly promising, but sadly ended up like so many other flashes, with nothing more than a repeated loop 5 frame animation set to an repetative song.

Frankiedaman responds:

Well, it didn't take me long to do, don't expect an epic ;|

[Streetrace in space]

Pretty

Very good looking, but the music is out of sync, and there is nothing here besides some pretty particles, I hope to see this technique used in a full flash later.

robikas responds:

Thanks for the review.

This was my first try ever with the particleIllusion.Now I am actually going to try to create a full flash movie combined with particleIllusion.

All I need now is an idea what movie to make^^

[VG Explanations]

Its kinda slow

But then again, its a sprite movie. And most sprite movies are slow. Nothing special. At least the idea for the story is more or less original.

X-Malaria responds:

You were the first to review so you get a prize anyway.

[Zarbon's MT Shenlong P1]

Congratulations

Your series of Zarbon's Masterpiece Theater is the only series on NG to consistantly make me laugh so hard I cant breath with each episode.

BogusRed responds:

Thank you Ornery_scotsman for your comments! The cast and I really appreciate it!

[Suicidal jon 2]

Your a terrible actor

Next time dont spend so much time looking at your computer screen, yes its nice to see where you are in relation to the camera, but it really ruins the entire movie and point when your looking in a direction that is away from the action.

JonReid responds:

well i never trained or want to be an actor and its hard to keep in relation to the area i have to work in

[-NoX-]

Thief II influence?

Im seeing alot of influence from the Thief computer game series, Thief II to be precise, but its a good game, and this is a good movie.

Andrew-Buckley responds:

Yes it is inspired by Thief, the gem he steals does not resemble The Eye in Thief II though, this storyline, characters have nothing to do with with Thief.

[A Grave in the Desert]

Great story

The music was nice and fitting, and your story was very nice and fresh. The animation could have used so fine tuning, but it was good enough.

Lady-Entropy responds:

Yeah, I'm climbing up that animation ladder inch by painful inch. I still need serious work, but hopefully the next one will top this and so on. Thanks for your awesome comments.

[The Zombie Chronicles Ep1]

here is a hint

Your comic is fine, but compress the music files. And also consider your muscial selection. It dosent sound good or look good when you cut a song off right in mid sentence or rift or whatever that isnt made to be cut off. Find a break point in a song when you cut it off. It sounds better.

EX35 responds:

I just did that thank you. I'm still trying to compress the music, but my computer is acting up. I probably do that later but thanks.
