Satoshiji's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Animator vs Animation III]

One question

He clearly has both IE and Firefox. So why the FUCK is he not browsing in Firefox in the first place?

You know you want to + this comment. You know you do.

[The SC2 Reporter: Zerg]

"it's a spire, shut up"

Always wanted to do a StarCraft flash, but I knew it'd be a lot of work making things recognizable. XD SUCH WITTY COMMENTARY ON THE CRAPPY NEW ZERG

[Pawnshop Prick]

classic.

fucking LOL. by the way, it sounds like our author was chatting on MSN messenger when he recorded the fart sound. lol.

[How Many Times Mr. Bush?]

Lasting effects (Part 2)

Agreed with VanCamp. I remember this sometimes when I'm "takin' that mornin' piss", haven't seen this in at least 5 or 6 years. I think this could be re-syndicated into an obnoxious commercial jingle with great success.

i love you marc m

[We Require More Minerals]

SC>WH

jigelfrap is stupid, lol. Blizzard was never once sued for "stealing" ideas, because they didn't. Starcraft is a balanced piece of 90s perfection and Warhammer would be extremely honored to have those comparisons drawn because warhammer sux the bux.

also, ok flash.

[Texas vs New Mexico State]

simply 'bad'.

i understand what you're doing here. its a cool idea, really. put "i know how to use flash and animate, barely" and "football fanboy" together, and this is what you get.

i'll admit, it's got the "so bad it's funny" thing going on for it -- the random poorly made gore scene had me loling.

i dont have anything against texas, or you. it's always good that someone is doing flash, however newgrounds is a site that attempts to filter out substandard material, and im sorry to say this is indeed substandard.

also iscrulz is the only real retard here. let us pray he overcomes his mental disability.

[LoL: Oh Yes And Spiders]

LoL is right.

as before, struck that magic balance of plot and humor. had me laughing out loud (hence the review title) at times, had me engaged in the story at times. nice thing, really.

the pixelwork and animation on this one is really impressive! feels like a big improvement, of course due to the help you've received from talented people, but i feel also because of your own experience from previous animation.

a lot of people seem to mind the length, but why? a -lot- better than those sixty second flash cartoons that make you say, "..uh, is that it? wtf." in all, just helps make it feel like what i was watching was worth my time to load the page. overall, the quality was great.

and yes, i gave it THE SIX. logged in on an alternate NG account&internet connection to do so. no need to thank me. i know im great.

in all seriousness though, i sent you a PM regarding a thing or two. if i can be taken seriously, would appreciate you giving it a read and replying if you aren't too busy replying to your mountain of reviews.

its been a fun hour or so watching & reviewing these, so thanks again!

[The Legend of Link Part 4]

And the last.

Satisfying conclusion now. The intro (part 1) really gave me the impression this was going to be entirely centered on humor, however the series' depth gradually became more clear, as it should have. the result (as I've already said, lol) is an awesome balance between plot and humor.

sprite work is great in this one. nice tie-in to the next episode near the end -- "oh god yes, and spiders."

Emptygoddess responds:

I like to imagine the internet as a big series of sewer tubes. Like in Mario.

[The Legend of Link Part 3]

Part 3

Not sure what to say here that hasn't been covered yet.. this episode starts off with a little more humor than the last one.. pretty funny, lol'd at Link's comments to the guard at the start. so great.

more plot progression here, the relation between Link and Zelda becoming more clear. holy crap, DEPTH! something so rarely seen.

god, sprite animation can be sexy.

Emptygoddess responds:

You could say 'BRAIN THE TRAITOR!' no one has said that yet.

[The Legend of Link Part 2]

REVIEW PART 2

This is where the series really begins to define its style. At first I was kind of resistant to Link's voice.. you know "this is NOT what link should sound like, based on my personal opinion of what he should sound like!" .. but soon enough it became .. endearing. Totally perfect for the way he's portrayed here. Zelda's voice is nice, the accent is pretty spot on, imo. The pixie's is -really- annoying, but not in a bad way (yeah, oxymoron, but whatever).. it's just how the character should be, rite? rite.

As far as the story&script goes, it's really nice, a breath of fresh air in the VG parody field. Awesome to get a break from videogame related movies full of boner jokes or whatever. The humor is just about perfect, not so much that I can't take the series seriously, but enough that it's there and provides a nice bit of comic relief. Great balance being struck here.

Animation is great. It's kept pretty simple here, which isn't really a bad thing. Most of the focus is on dialogue which helps keep the plot in check, but the animation is there when it needs be. So good work on that. :d

Stamps of approval from all the world make me feel like a little girl.
