margarine's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Monster Story]

fantastic animation

But you desperately need sound. Even if it's just background music, you need something to enhance the mood. But I'd refrain from anything too cartoony in terms of sfx. Like 'doinks' and stuff, you know what I mean, don't use them.
But great work on the animation side. It looks really pro.

[Dribbly Meow Meow]

interesting

First off, I have to say I was impressed with your action script skills. I can't understand that stuff for the life of me...As for actual content though, it was a bit disappointing. Needed to be funnier, and your characters were weak.
Well animated though. Submit more stuff!

[Schoolyard Samurai]

no, they both died

Nice idea, I also liked your frame by frame. The wind effect on their clothes and through their hair was really good. I would have liked some colour though :) Not full colour, just like a wash on scenery, and maybe highlights on the characters.
A comment on violence in schools perhaps?

[From Above]

haha

I'm pretty sure this idea has been done before...but it doesn't matter, because I'm also pretty sure it didn't have as good jokes as this. I loved the tetris bit :D
(PS: You could have hung one above the other, and had the guy throw himself in it. He'd be falling forever! Ah well, too late now...)

seanjames responds:

It's funny that you say that about the falling bit, because I actually did have that in there at one point, but I ended up removing it because I didn't like the way it turned out. But I like the way you think ;)

[A Clay Adventure]

hooray for clay

not bad...but there was NO STORY! Also, I wouldn't recommend filming this sort of thing in front of windows. The light flickers, and I think I saw people running around outside at some point :P
I liked your animation though.

Bob-Hernie responds:

Thank you for your comments. We made this with little experience in the media, and we filmed in there because that was the only room free, you are perfectly right though, you can see reflections and things in the window. Dorf, the other Animation on here by us is a vast improvement.

[A day in the life of]

hm, wha, goa?

We didn't really need the character introductions, you know. It was far too short and none of them interacted. That was just weird.
I liked the tank tricks tho :P

dextal responds:

it wasnt meant to be like a game even though loads of peoples have said the intro makes it look like it should be

[Bloodsucker]

wow

That has frontpage written all over it's ass, yo. Really awesome frame by frame, some of the best I've seen, and it was genuinely scary. Your backgrounds in the house are incredible.
The downers: Your sound is a bit cheesy. Er, that's the only downer. I'd just like to hear some 'homemade' sfx, if you get me?
Eagerly anticipating the next one...

[SensibleStunts]

fun

That kind of reminded me of that game 'Elma', where you have a motorbike and you speed it up around loops and stuff. Very cool graphics. Make more, and make them longer! Like...INSANELY longer, and faster!
NOW!

[Perpetual Motion]

:D

What a great ending. Loved it.

[Helge meets Jesus]

je suis spaghetti en oui

It was apretty good. I thought you could have had more happen though. It would be good if you had him get crucified and Helge is still copying him :D
An idea for episode 2 maybe?

Oddy responds:

Hehe, yeah! To be honest, we've acctually thought about just that and do plan to make a series of this ^^;
