HipnikDragomir's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Office Fingers]

There's "epic random xD" and then there's truly random messes. This relied too much on wacky faces and quips without any semblance of flow and it just comes and goes like a wave of noise and I'm incapable of absorbing any of it. Perhaps the old script should've stayed in its box.

[Do the Mario!]

I can't believe this was made in 2001. If I didn't know the date, I'd say it was some 2020 ironic meme shit you'd see on Youtube. Newgrounds.

[Nutty November]

Normally I'm a stickler for live footage on Newgrounds, but your shtick is unique enough that I'm cool with it. I really enjoy the subtle things you do with your acting and visual effects and editing to give these videos a bizarre style. The close-ups were a bit too frequent, but at least you ended them with a unique thing.

[Elon Musk in the Tonight Show]

Don't get me wrong, this is definitely bad. HOWEVER, this is that classic brand of shitty Newgrounds cartoon that's close to my heart and it still ended up being very funny. The visuals, the bad English, everything. Well done.

JasonKyo12 responds:

thanks a lot man. I really am always inspired by the Hentai Newgrounds games animation I used to play in the past :-)

Look, I really like what's there so far, but this doesn't even count as a standalone "movie". I get excited to upload stuff too, but you have to post a sizeable chunk of a thing, otherwise it make the site/your account feel like a dumping ground. This is more something to put on Twitter.

Besides the obvious positives of smooth and consistent animation, enjoyable unique artstyle (not that generic Calarts shit or anything similar), script, backgrounds, etc., I need to highlight one thing: the voice acting. It's not good. Not the so-bad-and-out-of-place-that-it's-funny bad, but that it's distracting and dragging the whole thing down. I hate echoing art teachers, but everything has to have synergy for it to work. If everything's firing on all cylinders but one thing is dramatically behind, it sticks out like a sore thumb and lowers the overall quality. I would've put in the effort to find someone who can do at least a little better, in both acting and recording. It doesn't have to be professional quality, especially over something goofy like this. Ignore what the other reviewer "jthrash" said about why characters sound like they do. Having a female or boy sound like a man is standard cartoon fare and it's funny. It's just the acting/recording that needs to match the quality of the rest of the cartoon.

[Wimp Witch OP]

Just as a quick note, the song rips off a couple Mega Man X songs. I can't remember which off the top of my head, but it's between the first five games. The main melody is pretty close to one song, and the bit that starts at 0:30 is another. It's not copy and paste, but dangerously close. I suggest telling the person to adjust it.

[The SIMPsons (parody)]

I'm giving the full 5 stars for the message. This highlights the problem women have today with their "sexuality" and "independence" thing. Nothing's going to change, but that doesn't mean you can't point it out. Well done.

Also, LYLE did Marge? Seriously??

[The True Ending (FF7 Remake Parody)]

idk what happened to my review, so here it is again paraphrased. I'm not letting this new era of Internet sensitivity shut down negative criticism:

This had no substance to it. A parody is a parody, but I've seen this exact "formula" since Newgrounds' inception. The classic DBZ stand-off with nothing happening and making "le epic funni faces". Put more effort into it.

JabaToons responds:

Mate I just watched your DBZ standoff cartoon from 2018 and it's exactly that too...practice what you preach!
