zebragrrl's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lost in Canada]

okay.. that's it, I quit!

omg that was so scarey. seriously it was quite shocking.

suggestions: your skit seems to lag a bit.. it's a timing thing. too much time on the "other channels" too much time after the video ends.. the whole bus thing was kindof "more, but not better".

how'd you do the smoke thing though, eh?

[GerkinmansTipsForCosplay]

Well wasn't that.. squirrely?

Okay.. cute, and all.. your use of hand drawn art is appreciated by this reviewer. The skit was fun, and I'm sure the cosplayers enjoyed it.

suggestions: I would have liked to see hand drawn mouths animating.. not much, nothing fancy, maybe 3 positions like homestar runner or something.. but the "tween" scaling really looked kindof "bad" with the nice, friendly, hand-drawn bodies and faces.

I dinged you mostly on originality. It's basically a rewrite of that squirrel guy's anime con rant. (I don't know the name of the toon, my friend likes it, I don't). Oh it's a funny skit, but since I'd seen essentially the same thing done more "over the top" about a month ago.. it didn't feel all that "fresh".

But it looked like you had fun making it, which is always the most important part. And your target audience enjoyed it too.. so double-plus-good for you, citizen!

Gerkinman responds:

yeh, there are some similarities between the 2, which was gonna happen no matter what i did. I had a quota to fill and thats how i filled it. And i did have fun making it so thats what counts ^^

[Crazy Random Purple Cat]

PINK CATS ARE WORSERER

okay dude.. like I know this guy, so don't expect me to be completely impartial here.

I know about the project he made the staircase for.. for good or for awesome. And I have seen it, and it is good.

Excellent staircase. it looks like it's far more layers than it needs to be, but I know you were going for that "well 3 years from now, I may want someone walking up THIS staircase, so I better make it work now" thing you do. WAY too much detail in the bannisters. you need like MAYBE half that many. or even less.. big enough spaces to get a 7 year old's head stuck in.

no, not an exploding baby's head.

Cheesius, YOU and your cat are insane, and it worries me that it's meow is so powerful.. or that the camera mount gimble is so sensitive. (I still worry about what that one pink cat under the stairs on the lower-right is up to.. he's with Al Quaida I tell you!)

Cheesius responds:

Oh, don't get me started on pink cats. Pink cats are WAY worserer, they might even be worsererest.

And yeah, I put WAY too much detail into that bg - and now it doesn't even match the cartoon I was making it for. Ah, c'est la vie (which is french for "Pigs often belch". I never took french.
