BoMToons's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

["Ashkinscrip 3.0"]

Curly Hair

I'm much buffer in real life.

Prove it. :P

[Olympic Love]

I knew it

I watched the movie without looking at who the author was, but by the end I was convinced it was a Jeff Bandelin...I didn't glean this info from the factors your might normally think...it was the v-cam! I knew it by the V-CAM!

yeah you got me pinned

[Identity (2006)]

Top-Notch

This was top-notch work and very enjoyable to watch. The amount of control used in the artwork, scene staging, and animation very obviously set the crudeness of the drawing and color scheme apart as intentional choices that lend to the overall meaning.

I was impressed overall with the fluidity of the animation, perspectives employed in the staging, and especially with the overall point of the piece (something on NG with a deeper meaning than just sex and violence...whoa!).

Truly a work of art.

Peda responds:

Thank you VERY, VERY much for the attention paid to how I created the movie- it was always my main concern that I wanted the movie to look good and flow, else interest is lost in the surroundings and character and I get bad reviews. I too agree that it is such a rare thing to not have movies on newgrounds purely running on sex or violence (most noteably ones which suit no other purpose). Other movies I am not all too fond of are obviously bad submissions put on and immediately removed, and submissions with hardly a scratch of originality (usually sprite movies here). thanks for the review!

[Morph Shorts 1]

I like it

If there were some sort of cohesive story or logical progression, that might improve it, but I enjoy the "stream of consciousness" feel you've got going too. My only other suggestion would be to fill more of the picture frame with the morphing sometimes...like maybe some landscapes or larger mechanical objects...seems like you're good at organic stuff like faces, so try branching out into some broader forms to add some variety.

Overall, an awesome concept. Hope yo develop it into something big.

ratchet-ut responds:

I understand what you mean with the storyline or such, but what I going for was a sort of "wtf?..whoa." reaction. If this one does decent, I will work on a much more in depth movie with the same concept. I really didn't want to spend months and months making a huge elaborate fbf movie only to have it be ill-recieved. From what i've seen, people seem to thing it is an interesting concept. I will most likely do more of this in the future. Thanks for the review.
