Short-Factor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic's Wacky World]

Ah ha...

Your first sprite movie eh? Well just keep in mind that its generally not a good idea to submit movies this short without thinking about what you're doing. I think people let it slip into the portal because its your first, and is obviously not some weirdo's fucked up spam movie. Although I have to admit, my first sprite movie was quite short, but I have learned a lot since then, so take my advice.
Don't just start working on something and then go "Oh I'm lazy I'll just submit the ten seconds I made." You should complete your movie, make use of all the ideas you have and apply them. Also try a higher FPS and less choppy animation. It helps. You'll go much farther this way, trust me.

Good luck, rookie sprite animator.

lol thankz =]

[Sonics Pokemon Adventure]

I'm sorry but uh

This was... absolutely godawful. What FPS was that, 3? Remake it after you've gotten a LOT better.

WindShinobi responds:

okay will do that may take some time though

[Mount Newground]

Crazy Awesome!!

I'm glad I was able to participate in this one, I kinda missed out on "The Red Line" project. Thank you for putting in the right pic I specified. I probably would've chosen different music, but it was still pretty good. Well, fantastic work, everyone, especially SirNightOwl and TurkeyOnAStick for putting this all together! We should really start things like this more often!

P.S. Thanks for crediting me with the mountain peak edit anyway, even though it wasn't really used (I like the newer one anyhow).

SirNightOwl responds:

You're more than welcome :)
Thanks we appreciate everyone invovled and this is certainly not just me and Turkey, this front page belongs to everyone who supported and contributed to Mount Newground, we love all of them!

[Super Mario bros Z ep 4 (old series)]

Absolutely Remarkable!!!

The brilliant high-octane fight sequences left me in chills. Fantastic, you still don't cease to amaze me!!!

Alvin-Earthworm responds:

Thanks very much. Your Sonic vs Shadow flashes helped inspire me too.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope I don't disappoint you in the later episodes.

[The Clocktone Genius]

LOL!

I do remember seeing the original. I laughed pretty hard when all of those clocks flashed by at the end. Was that EVERY single clock out there? Hard to tell, really, considering that there are tons of clocks out there nowadays. I also noticed you animated the clock on the main guy's face. The second hand was ticking. Good work!

RupeeClock responds:

Nah, it wasn't every single clock, but it was a lot of them!

[Pokemon Xmas Song]

Ha ha ha!!!

Holy crap that song is frickin' hilarious!

Liether responds:

Thanx.

[Final Fantasy Sonic X:Ep4]

Mudda F**K!!!

WOOT!!!! This rivals my works in progress!!! You blew me away with this one, I'm givin' you a 5!!!

BlackDevilX responds:

Shorty friggin dog man! wats up where you been at!

[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!!!

[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.
