DannyP's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Final Fantasy 4 vs. 6]

I'll never understand the people of Newgrounds...

The sprites were pretty 'stiff', Leviathan is more of a serpent type, not a dragon with wings and the sort. The sound files weren't compressed AT ALL, making this file much larger than it should have been. It didn't have a preloader, or even a play button.

Yet, this scores higher than my .:Cecil vs. Kain:., which puzzles me. I will never understand the people of Newgrounds, and how something like this does better than something I made which had much better quality than this.

[ludas animans Ep. 6 Pt. 4]

Wow... very nice

That was a really good Flash movie, though I haven't seen the other episodes and stuff. When I was done watching, I almost forgot about the two things that bothered the Hell out of me.

1. Please put a preloader bar on this! It's such a large file, and all I had to keep me going was the "Loading" text.

2. The music went really good and everything, but you might want to consider compressing it a bit. I mean, 11 MB!? Are you mad!? This probably could have been 2-4 MB if you used .wav sound files. Using WinAmp and RC-MP3 Converter, you can change MP3's to .wav files, and the sound quality isn't changed much.

The loading process was brutal because of the large file size and no preloader bar, but the movie itself was excellent!

Glad you liked the movie. As for your constructive criticism...

1. If I knew how to make a proloader bar, I would put one in the proloader screen. Since I don't, that's about the best I can do currently.

2. In another review response, I listed why is was so big. The music files are all in wav format and are at 11025 bit rate. Since there's 105 wav files in this movie, I think I managed it pretty well with compression. Oh, and all the sound effects are in wav format, as well.

[Super Mario Super Blooper]

Pretty good...

It was OK, but you overused the Mario screaming sound, the sprites' movements weren't very smooth. Some of the jokes were pretty funny. That one where he's running confused the Hell out of me...

[Music and stuff]

I liked the Tetris bit the best

I liked the one about Tetris best, found it shocking that there was no "Replay" button...

[The Robot: part I]

Well done

The fact that the preloader didn't have a "Play" button angered me, and the fact that you said you made this when you were bored made me think it was gonna be crappy. Pretty good humour and style, I liked the graphics, keep up the good work.

[Lightboy episode 1]

Needs a preloader badly!

Give this movie a preloader, and you should work on the sounds too. Get some voice actors, this movie could really use it! Other than that, I thought the graphics and stuff were pretty good. Just fix up those few things.

[Stellarsis episode I]

I... I... (speechless)

I can't thank you enough for teh snapple button for a preloader! It was very generous of you! :-D

[Chrono Trigger - Tribute]

What the hell was this?

It was just them all running, except Ayla wasn't there, and Magus wasn't running. I'm a big Chrono Trigger fan, but not even I could enjoy that.

[Pussywillow: Episode I]

That was awesome!

The ending was a little... disturbing... But overall, that was excellent!
