Techneon's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Grand Theft Awesome]

Great

I doubt you'll read this among the various "omfgyoucopiedegoyouloser" reviews but so what.

Awesome job, I can agree with some of the gripes, like losing tiny bits of health, being called all the time and accidentaly jacking a taxi.

The animation was average but definately had a few nice details that redeemed it, Niko splashing his hands into the water made me laugh, it's great how little details like that make things so much better.

Plus I liked the voice work, he really did sound quite cranky at everyhitng, kind of like Niko.

[Pigeon Psychosis]

Very unique

Nice little short film with some unexpected violence, I will say a pigeon with a chainsaw is something I've NEVER thought of before.

Really smooth walk animations too.

[Ribbachile!]

"shut yer yep"

No matter how many times I hear that high piched voice combined with that awful animation, I still laugh.

[LoZ: My Immortal]

Best Zelda/Evenescance movie I've ever seen

I must say I was impressed, I've imagined the same sort of idea with this song as well, but haven't had the time to make a movie for it myself.

However was slow in some parts (but that's to be expected when you have a lot of time to fill), especially at the finale, a bit more fighting would have made it better rather than suddenly cutting in with the band part (great job with the drums btw) then back to fighting.

But overall you did good, loved the Wind Waker homage at the end!

VicHD responds:

I know I should've added a bit more fighting at the end, but I didn't want to overdo that scene. I prferred to show certain highlights of the fight and focus more on the band because I didn't have enough inspiration for the fight itself. I was working more on drama than action in this one, which was all I needed to express the mood of the song.

I sometimes have a habit of rushing a project when I spend too much time working on it, due to either writer's block or because of life related events that get in the way, but at the end I think of it as a good thing.

The fight scene I created was made to reference 3 Zelda games of the whole series:
A Link to the Past--> The final Boss battle.
Ocarina of Time--> Zelda Trapped in a floating crystal.
The Wind Waker-->Ganon turned to stone by the Master Sword.

Thanks for the review.

[Snake Eater Chronics Ep02]

Well, it's an improvement

Still a bit slow paced, but it's definately funnier. Nice job with the triangle fast fwd part.

I'll be waiting for the next part

SaintShun responds:

Well, i have submited few things to the portal so...

[Snake Eater Chronics Ep01]

It pains me to say it

I thought before watching the 2nd episode I'd watch this first.

I really don't like saying it to a fellow MG fan, but I didn't like it much. It was slow-paced and nearly an identical copy of the intro. While I did get a few small laughs out of the jokes, I had a hard time understanding some of the dialogue, you needed more subtitles.

But if it's your first movie then I'll get that go, my first movies weren't exactly award winning either. I still have high hopes for the 2nd part.

SaintShun responds:

i told you not to >=(, anyway what did you expect, i dont have as much as you on this bussiness thou im getting better and Ep02 was started way back also, so ... you will see when episode 3 comes out, anyway thanks for your almost amazing review

[Batel]

Review

I am impressed sir!

boxpilot responds:

This pleases me.

[Silent Hill 4: Spoof]

lol, pee

Well I sort of expected this to be a little closer to the source material (the room technicaly doesn't talk to Henry), but it did have a few good jokes that made me laugh. So good job!

DiceP responds:

Lol well there is on part where the room does get possessed..its in Henrys bed room..I think eather the radio or a section in the room itself..i dont remember..but your right,not to that magnatude.I Sort of took that from Amityville horror. I'm glad you found it funny and thanks for watching.

[Metal Gear Fiesta 2]

Half and half

I remember watching your first MGF a while ago and this was deinately an improvement. I loved the first half, being a massive MGS fan but I'll admit I'm not much of a fan of Bill & Ted (mainly because haven't seen much of the movies) so the 2nd half sort of lost me.

Overall, the graphics are ok, very close to the actual game, that's sort of good and bad. Some of the animation (dancing and guitar solos) looked great as well.

Oh and thanks for making me laugh at the word "Moutain Goat" too!
