BoMToons's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[School 13 - I.A.C.W.]

Really cool

I liked it a lot. You've got lots of animating talent and a good sense of pacing. Something about having it in russian just made it that much cooler too!

Nightwayfarer responds:

thanks, and i'm glad that you can feel the RUSSIAN spirit :D
But i want to make not motion, but traditionaly animated toons, and to do so "I need to get stronger" (C)Naruto :3

[Animation Challenge Wk1-3]

Blech

These were all fairly bad. I was hoping at least one would stand out from the rest, but was pretty disappointed. At least the idea is a good one. I hope the future contests attract some more effort and talent.

Rudy responds:

Hopefully, tell your friends to attract more talent. More artists, more possibilities of bigger cash.

[It's Still Me]

Please

Stay alive, for we all need your art to be happy ourselves.

Sqeezy responds:

will do then

[Avatar Boredom Dub 8]

Greatness

Ha ha ha, I really enjoyed that. It takes quite a bit of talent to voice-synch that accurately, and the sheer randomness of the "story" still has me giggling. Good job. (Jerk, Jerky, Jerkersons)

TomaMoto responds:

I actually think voice syncing is the part that makes it fun. Thanks much for watching and reviewing, you nice, nicey nicerkon.

[Two-Hour Time Trial II]

You guys

wasted 2 hours.

Rudy responds:

maybe :D

[Bench]

On the topic of shortness

No one should ever submit a toon less than a minute long.

ZekeySpaceyLizard responds:

short, you say?

[TANKMEN .5]

Nice

Wow, the tank-men universe gets deeper and deeper....you mean these guys had lives BEFORE they were tank-men!!!???!!!

JohnnyUtah responds:

i guess SO

dammit bomtooms

[Mastermind 2]

Good one

Ha ha, good one. I liked the dramatic angles at the beginning.

Tweenimation

Your stuff all suffers from the same flaw... lack of animation...I think you're afraid to try real animating tactics, ie: redrawing things to infer movement. This could have been really good because you know how to storyboard scenes...but things sliding across the screen do not a good animation make.

I went through the same thing when I first started animating (you can see it in my older stuff), but it's time to take your skills to the next level.

Also, there are some visual glitches like the stage showing through around the edges...it kinda ruins the magic when I see that because it reminds me of the creation process rather than letting me be immersed in the story...it's kind of a rookie mistake.

In addition, the use of audio and character design from the animated series indicates a lack of creativity...you should try coming up with your own designs and use some audio from the audio portal because I think you have the talent to make something really special...I think existing superheroes as subject matter is fine, but try doing your own concept art...don't be afraid to experiment!

Gus-Saldanha responds:

I am surprise you don't mention the fact I'm using traditional fbf animation for the bat when flying, in batman's face, in batman's cape when flying, in the tumbler's tires. Maybe you just didn't noticed, and maybe that's a good thing, cuz it means i was very precise in my fbf animation. I really see the tweening option as a wonderful tool that makes animation so precise and even rythmical, and it gives you good control of your objects in the scene. I think is a great option, and I'm not against traditional fbf animation, but I don't see it as the only alternative. Again, I've used a combination of both here. Both, and you don't seem to see it.

Congratulations on taking your skills to the next level. Im sure u are a legend here on Newgrounds, although I never heard about you.

U see stage around the edges? WOW, man I'm surprised you actually tell me that's something that ruins magic and that stuff, cuz if I see something like that, I really don't pay attention cuz Im focusing on the movie. I'm not looking for glitches and errors like a fox searching for food just like you seem to do. I wanna apologiz thought with my fans and viewers for ruining magical moments because of a one-pixel wide line... somewhere... That won't happen again.

Lack of creativity cuz I use character designs from an animated series? Would you please PLEASE tell me what animated series do the Batman and Manbat design from this movie look like? Please tell me, cuz from what I know, the Batmans from the latest animated series are short eared, big faced, and blue and gray. Im using something more like a Chris Nolan Batman, or maybe a very dark comics Batman, and that's because its a tribute, because it's a character thats not mine, and I'm respecting and exploiting the best details from Batman: Darkness, menacing look, bat-like forms, etc etc. All because I consider myself a true Batman fan.

Audio from the portal? Lack of creativity because I dont use other audio than this??? Man you sound like you're just looking for any little thing it occurs to you just to make up a destructive critique. I loooove orchestral music, and I loooooove Batman Begins OST, and it's just what any Batman movie needs, and also, I don't have any money, or any resources to build up an orchestra in a studio and record this kinda music that Batman and any Batman animated movie deserves. Yeah, perhaps I don't have neither the knowledge, or the creativity to compose orchestral soundtrack-like music for a Batman movie, but I think I made a great great choice of music for this movie.

Thankyou very much.
