Short-Factor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic Xtreme]

Wow, ho-ly shit...

This is the kind of movie I've dreamed of making. The graphics were great, but let me tell you, gradient shapes slow the fuck out of a movie. A little shading goes a long way. All you really need is transparent black and white shapes to simulate shading and lighting effects, also they take up less space and FAR less graphical slowdown. Great work, NG rarely ever gets any work of such a magnificent caliber! People usually just throw scribbles and sprites on a flash and call it a movie. I call it SHIT!!! But this... makes you worthy of the greatest Sonic flash artist ever!!!

P.S. I couldn't help noticing that you ripped off scenes from the Sonic CD intro movie...

[weebl and bob: pie]

Pie!

This is the smartest cartoon on NG! PIE! PIE IS GOOD!

[The Bad Comedy Robot]

5

You should have made the joke the number 10. Because that way, people would give you 10s. Wow, I must say, your movie was very 5-esque. So 5ish, 5ity 5 5in 5.

[DragonBall GD Ep. 1]

Err...

Well, it's not REALLY bad... But you need to set your FPS higher... really, why did you set it (or leave it) so frickin' low? Take out the music and add sound effects, perhaps having riffs of good music everyonce in a while.

Kanon-Miroku responds:

The only reason I didn't add sound was because I wasn't that good at placing it where and where. I'm a one man company!

[Final Fantasy Sonic X:Ep3]

Yay!

Nice! I gave the sound a 10 because you used the overdrive sound effect I made! :D Good job!

I voted a 2.

BlackDevilX responds:

....ahhh man!!!

[Satan Performs "Dr. Worm"]

Hmm...

I think the song rules. It's just the animation that made a mockery of the song. You should practice up, and remake this whole thing.

[blue christmas]

Gah...

I hate holidays that are like that! So lifeless and dull. Gives you that crappy feeling... Eck... Good job, I like the concept!

[Sonic Matrixa Trailer 2/3]

Hmm...

I can tell by the Special Effects (especially with the text) that you made this movie with SWiSH Max. Although I could be wrong. I love sprite movies, I really do. But something I absolutely cannot stand in sprite movies is shitty FPS, and sssslllloooowwwww assed effects. I mean watching those slow as hell blur effects made me puke! Set them to at least 5 frames, I mean really! And fighting scenes are slow too. The punches and movements are slow! Set the FPS to at least 20. It doesn't make the file size THAT much bigger!

ampedMIKAEL responds:

Dont worry, i intended the slower Fps because it was a teaser that was supposed to go in slowmotion, like other Matrix Film Trailers. Have no fear, the fps in the real finale will be much faster. I wouldnt dare have the finale at such a slow fps.

[Stick fight -short]

Wow!

Now I've been inspired to make my own stick fight! Great animation! Great sound! AND GREAT JOB! That splashy thingy in the preloader was cool too!

Harakirie responds:

I love to see those high numbers in the reviews they make me high :D

[Sonic VsGohan]

Um...

Things I can't stand about certain people who make sprite fights is that first of all, they make the FPS slower than shit on a bong. Also, they very cheesily attempt to animate sprites, thus making animations weird and clunky. And the motion paths and movements get screwed up, or are set to move very slow... Another thing, those weren't Goku sprites. They were Gohan sprites from another game, so it seemed awkward watching Gohan saying his son, Gohan, had died. And you claim to be a DBZ fan? Nice attempt, but try again next time, hopefully with something better.
