MysticShinHanKu's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MetroidPrimeCatastrophe 2]

it was alright

I have to agree almost completely with Hoogiman. The art was very nice with the gradients and very detailed characters. The tweened animation was pretty good the way you did it, so they weren't standing still as they talked, but the dialogue just didn't do a whole lot for me.

I felt the writing was a little weak and none of the jokes hit. One rule of comedy - repetition is funny....but to a certain point. The mommy joke died in the first scene, you shouldn't have kept going.

Also, like said, the dialogue just wasn't delivered strong enough to make the impact it needed. Samus especially just didn't do a lot for me. The touching my boobs line wasn't a favorite of mine, but the way she delivered it made it worse for me. There should've been a build up, and a little faster. I would've liked to hear a little more attitude out of her voice actor.

All in all, a very nicely made animation, it is good, but the actual plot/script/performance needs to be worked on because you are a good animator. Good luck on your next project! Maybe I'll be able to voice work for you sometime.

Shadowii2 responds:

But what I am meaning with the improvement here is that the writing in this is a LOT better than in the first "MPC" in my opinion, which was just a randomly pulled out script of jokes.

But I agree with the voicing here.

Thanks for the review.

ps:
Also from what I checked, you have quite interesting voice there, might be asking you if I ever need fresh voices.

[Sonic the Unstoppable]

not bad at all

not a bad sprite animation at all. I enjoyed how it felt like I was watching the game, you had Sonic's speed and sliding down in your animation - didn't look all choppy. Very nicely planned. And the battle was cool.

Voices were pretty good, I especially liked Knuckles' voice. I wasn't a big fan of Sonic's voice. I have heard D-mac do Sonic before, and it was great, but I don't think he did it in this. He's definitely a great Sonic ;) Nice job to all

[Awesome Crossing Redux]

nice job

great job on this. I see your DVD is coming along nicely. Seeing the easter egg gets me excited to see some of your completely original animations.

Funny how they gave you 2 days on front page and then replaced you with the spoof rtil made that mocks you. Glad you're not giving in to it and fighting him - if you fight with a troll, he has one :p

do what makes ya happy - have fun and I still hope to meet you someday and nerd over some DBZ.

[Final Fight:the Nerd Saga]

well played

nice art, nice pace and interesting narration and while I prefer fully animated, I don't always shun the comic book style I suppose.

I mean...I understand that you're upset and think Ego's stuff is stupid, but methinks you put waaay too much time into all that. If you know you're better and all that jazz that you claim, why don't you just outdo him? ...idk, just seems like you're screaming at a brick wall, ya know? Ego will do what he does because he enjoys it.

Why don't you do what you do because you enjoy it? Why try and knock everybody else? I mean with all the energy you put into trying to trash everybody else's reps and whining about the high status game animations get, you could've created something with a freakin 5.00 rating with the talent you have. Sad to see it wasted on this type of hate and trolling :/

well, here's hopin you grow up soon, rtil, I totally respect you as one of the most talented animators on newgrounds, hope you grow out of this childish stage.

[Wii love Brawl comedy]

awesome audio

hilarious and amazing choice of audio. He is a fantastic comedian, and I love his jokes.

The animation itself was alright, though the Brawl theme seemed a little out of place. I think just literally translating the jokes would've been a lot cooler, but it was still very entertaining. Nice job on the visuals.

Man, I love hearing that audio... his Don LaFontaine is superb.

[Welcome To Jokergrounds]

it was ok

not too great of animation. In the beginning the joker voice was pretty good, but then it just faded in and out, and never had a great laugh. Batman looked pretty great, but other than that, most of the art/animation was not very good.

The lip sync was fair, but the mouths/lips themselves looked very odd to me. Writing/jokes weren't very funny to me. All in all, it was a well-timed flash submission because of all the current Batman hype, but it just wasn't too entertaining to me.

Dekathos responds:

Oh piss off. I didn't do this for the hype. I guess that would be something a person who believes flash is easy and can come out in a second at an author's whim would think, wouldn't it? Why not ? That seems like the effort most of your "favorites" put into their work. Don't insult me.

[MGS 3 Bosses short]

hmm nice job

nice job. I bet if you took away the auto play it would be alright. - just take a look at the actionscript and make sure it's copied exactly because "play" doesn't show up, it autoplays for some reason. I bet if you fixed it, it'd be ok. You should ask a mod to help you out or something so you can get the fixed version up.

Other than that, nice job, I had a lot of fun.

[In Memory of Her]

sorry about your dog...

I'm sorry...I know how you feel. I remember when I was 12, my dog who I'd had since I was like 3 had to be put down because he was really sick too.

He spent like a week hiding under our deck and wouldn't come out. My mom had to go under there and wrap sheets around him and drag him out so we could take him to the vet. On the ride over there I sat in the back with him, and I cried. When I did, he put his head in my lap and looked up at me. It was sad.

I miss ma dog, and I know you miss yours. :/ Hope the support helps you and gives you some smiles.

[Then I Run]

whoa, very interesting

It's very experimental. I really enjoyed it. The quiet and mellow music was a great touch. I see flashes like these and I really have no idea how people make them lol.

Though the character's sweater didn't move with them, the design just stayed in one place. While it looked cool, it made it feel a little off, but just that. Very nice job on this. Very artistic.

Foxcato responds:

Thank you very much.
It comes from odd dreams and a very vivid imagination:)

[Demo-Reel]

very cool

wow, great stuff. I'd love to see a full animation from you. You are incredibly talented and really have the fluid movement of characters down. When the guy was trying to open the fridge, it was perfect - exactly how I would want cartoons to look. I hope to see animations from you in the future. Look for me if you ever need a voice actor ;) /whore
