Ardhamon's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Naruto : Missing Chapter]

I remember stumbling upon this on Youtube about 3 years ago. I thought it was different and slightly funny.

Watching this now, it's still a bit funny after being a bit more exposed to the show and understanding what goes on in the series.

I did like how you made fun of the many aspects of the series like the flashbacks and what not.

However, the animation is definately a turnoff. But atleast your did acknowledge that it could use improvement. Also the thing is old, so I'll let it slide anyway.

[Egorapture]

I know I've praised this before, but I think I'd like to write a review here. The dialogue was just funny as it basically made fun of every retarded review you got on that last film. I absolutely love the animation here. So full of energy and the thing looks absolutely wacky as fuck.

Again, you should work with Egoraptor even more as he seriously fits your animation style. He's almost as energetic as your animation style.

It's sad that the only reason this exists is to show how people can't honestly tell the differences between each style of art. There might be slight similarities here and there and the topic might also be the same. But to go out of one's way to say that one artist has the same style or is ripping off another artist is rather unnecessary.

So, I find this movie to be a good message out there who constantly compare everyone else to Egoraptor.

Now if only my review was included in the end. lol Just kidding.

Nice job dude. I fucking loved it.

[Mass Effect 3 Plot]

Not bad.

Love the style here and the animation is so and so.

I especially love the leader's expression and his reaction toward different things in this flash.

I also like the voice acting here. Though Mic quality could have been improved a bit.

Nice work overall, I think you did great and improved a bit since the Sonic Generations cartoon.

[Ice Age Buddies]

Wasn't Expecting a stick cartoon.

To be honest, I was actually surprised by this.

While I agree that the voice acting and and audio need improvement, especially the audio, I didn't mind the other things.

The animation wasn't half bad and for stick drawings, too. I did like some of the voices, mainly the kid and the narrator as well as the nerd. They were the ones that stuck out the most to me.

As for the writing, while it wasn't all that good, it did have to potential to make me laugh a bit. I mean the writing and the situation kinda made me feel like I was back in the 90s and watching some show on NIckelodeon. (By that I mean stuff like Kablam, Angry Beavers, old Spongebob). You made that feeling a bit more with the Narrator sounding almost like Plankton from Spongebob and you even used Spongebob music here aswell.

Keep on Writing, dude. I might like to work with you one day once I master animation and drawing altogether.

StaticBunny responds:

I'm aware that it's poorly written; that's what makes it funny. The narrator is well aware that the story is awful and tries to fix it up.

And thanks dude.

[Moisture Care]

Love in all the wrong places

I thought this was funny. The idea was kinda funny.

I really love the animation, too. It was smooth, had plenty of time put into it and you did pretty darn good on the part where he dreams about the relationship he would have with her. Not only that you did a great job with the shading and coloring.

Great job overall.

[Bro'kemon]

Oh Jesus, man.

Now I'd complain about the whole "Brock is black" joke or the "Don't have eyes" jokes, but I just can't help but love the way you drew the characters here. Ash is the one that took the cake for me. I also love the way this was approached. Short and to the point. Now, I may sound hypocritical as I loved Pokemon But With Animals instead (1 & 2) and they repeated this joke a few times.. but at least you didn't drag it on.

Overall nice work.

[Meme City]

It's hard to not like this.

To be honest I try and avoid meme stuff as they usually ruin the context of what the flash movie is trying to joke about and some people who use nothing but Memes sound unfunny. But I did sorta like this.

The animation wasn't bad and the idea of a guy pitching a meme-based show is just insane. I did like the refs used here. Mainly Pedobear and Trolololo guy as those are the only memes that I care for. I also kinda find it hard to see Bronies as a meme...I guess it is meme-ish as there are so many memes based off of the My Little Pony series.

Nice work. I'm surprised that I kinda liked this one a bit.

Keep it up.

[Hetalia - Spies like us]

Ehhh

Now, when I was about 14 or so, I remember watching your Naruto Randomness flashes. To be honest, they weren't the best things I've watched because of animation quality and whatnot, but they were still watchable. Over time, I saw you grow a bit and I did notice some improvements here and there.

I was also annoyed with some segments being in Spanish and with poor mic quality.

However this, I did like a little bit more. Mainly because of a slight improvement in animation. The shading is well done here, and I certainly love the way the characters move a bit. Now alot of people complain about anime style and whatnot, but I'm not going to let ruin anything as I LOVE anime and whatnot. But that doesn't really stop me from criticizing the way it's approached. The eyes look too big for their heads and the bodies look too stiff or rectangular. Also, It looks less realistic without wrinkles. I noticed this more in your older stuff, but atleast here you added some wrinkles to the clothing.

Overall, I think that you certainly have plenty of room for improvement. I honestly don't watch things like this where someone gets an audio clip, but at least it fits the characters in this flash. Also, don't be discouraged to use any style you want. Sure, people might give this a low rating for being an "anime" flash but there are a decent number of flashes on Newgrounds that use anime style and yet also manage to have great writing, beautiful animation, nice voice acting and much more.

Keep it up. :)

[Fluttershy's lovely song]

Well Jesus Christ!!!

That was amazing right there.

To be honest, I never thought I'd see the day that someone would animate one of Solrac's stuff. I thought this was hilarious.

The animation was well done and it was a great mix of the show's style and a slightly twisted version of it. Not to the point of Egoraptor or Kricfalusi persay, but a little close.

I also loved how you drew the animals' reactions to her singing as well. I always love the idea of one character acting freaking weird or crazy in that show and somepony else (pony pun..so sue me..) reacting to it uncomfortably.

Nice work, man. I swear you did great.
