Techneon's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mega Man gets fired!]

Not bad, not good either

Very nice idea, ruined by poor visuals.

You're mixing and matching 8-bit with 16-bit and unless you know the exact right way to do that, it ends up looking terrible. You should get the roms for the original NES mega man games rather than the 16-bit versions. You also had several grammar and spelling mistakes.

It also can't hurt to add some voices to it.

Magmah responds:

I know this. But this was my second sprite movie, so I'm still learning ways to use sprites. As for grammar and spelling, I'm from Norway, so it's not easy to have correct grammar all the way.

[Sonic outtakes(KF)]

average

it started off good, skits based on Sonic, but it started to fall apart when you began to rely on dialogue.

I liked the sudden change to the Eggman music at then end though, if all the skits were like that then you'd get a 5

Yoshiking2 responds:

maybe the dialog did mess up the movie but how was i gonna make the sonic and Amy thing huh?


oh well you liked it

[The Appointment]

wow

that was a vary well done flash movie there. It had a good style to it and the detail was great.

one problem though, the audio seems to be cut off a bit about halfway.

SketchMichaels responds:

I think I'm going to go back and fade those out so they're not as harsh on the ears. Thanks for the great review!

[101 things to teach...]

wow

that was exellent, the file saize was so small and I was totaly expecting a POS movie, but you proved me very wrong.

The stuff in the made me laugh out loud quite a few times. Great Job!

kode-man-2005 responds:

Thanks :D

[DEAD NES GAMES]

a bit slow

first I'll get the bad stuff out of the way

1. the audio was obviously high quality, this made the file waaaaaay too big, it's be a good idea go optimize it, (check the portal FAQ)

2. You say the submission is rated 'everyone' even though there are sexual refs, a bit of violence and lots of swearing, the rating stuff is there for a reason

3. at times the pace of the movie was reeeaaalllyy sllloooowwww.

now for the good stuff

It was good to see some old skool games used in a flash. there were one or two good jokes as well (heh heh, laxitives, priceless!).

the extras were a good read too.

seruvath responds:

Fixed the rating situation right away. And your right, optimizing the audio is a very good idea. ill look into that. Im glad you got a crack from some jokes. Thanks for taking the time to write this long reveiw! i appreciate it!

[Konstantin]

nice

that was pretty good, but it was a bit slow.

and why did the music just stop halfway through?

AngryAxel responds:

Hmm, I can't see a problem like that... Must be your comp then =P

[uiensoep]

heh cute

this is pretty good, short, sweet, and a really tiny file size.

just shows that you don't have to have a 2 meg file of violence to get a good movie.

Great Job!

yamago responds:

thank you

[Missing You]

STOLEN

I've been sent this as a greeting card, also a dead giveaway that you stole it is that you have no commentary and you are a new member

sorry *blows whistle*

alidij responds:

It's not stolen, I made it today, the only thing that was stolen is the text, I saw it somewhere else, but I did graphics and animation 100% by myself.
