HRM's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Spares]

Dear EddsWorld..

Just a little note saying hi. I've been a long time follower of your flashes for five years, regardless of the age of this account, and I have to say that this work represents true quality. Although I still think that EDDSWORLD ZOMBEH ATTACK series beats anything by far (except possibly this), I do concur on my own opinion that you have provided a fine piece. You had stylish, smooth animation, hilarious scenes, and you guys portraying yourselves as characters never gets old. You guys are one of the people that I love watching over and over again.

I can't wait to see your next piece of art that comes from the Generic Machine of Randomness.

Thanks for the large review! Nice to know we have such a long term fan :D

[SRM Transformers 2!]

Wonderful, man! Just wonderful!

Remember me from when I reviewed your first one! I'm back! (O Noes!)

I personally think that this flash was ALOT better than your first. Not only did you have much better animation, but you had even funnier jokes!

The animations were about two to threefold better than the first SRM Transformers. That, in my opinion, is wonderful. I think the effects and movements were excellent, besides the fact the arms are still static! D=

The jokes were hilarious. I realize now the "Hai Guyz" is basically someone saying "I'm gonna get hurt", and it's HILARIOUS!! The jokes are well timed and in a good order. I must admit, my favourite line was... "Woah! A transformer that actually TRANSFORMS?!" That was epic! You definately have the humour factor in there.

The plot is unoriginal, but who cares? It's transformers.

The graphics are hilarious. The way they are made like talking balls of metal (in my view) just makes the jokes THAT much better. Not to mention that tank looked awesome, before it got WTFPWN'D.

Overall, I have to say that you have vastly improved on your flash skills. Sure, it may look the same to a few, but not to me. You have done a great job, Battosai810.

Cheers!
Dan

That's a great review man - means a lot when people take the time to write their thoughts out :)
Thanks for such an intensive review, I'm glad you liked it as much as you did, and found it so much better than the first. Brawl might be back and looking cool in the next, I'll tell ya when I get to writing it lol.
Anyway, glad you liked it! Expect part 3 soon!

[Subordinate Droids 3]

Impressive, but lacks the true humour.

Alright, as one of those shows that seems good enough to watch, but kid-friendly, I think this would be suitable for actual television.

The 3d mixes very well with the 2d drawings, and the 3d models seem very realistically rendered. The 2d characters could use some work, however, as the people such as Hamish have 'wavy arms'. As in, the arms are just curved lines connected. It loosens the reality of the show.

It is very kid-friendly, and it seems like one of those shows that aren't just wonderfully relevant to kids, but has the action that I really do like in such a general manner.

The only thing that truly ruined the 10 by a point, was the humour. I thought that it was very corny, obvious, and it didn't put a better smile than a 'Lol, that's so corny!' kind of chuckle.

But besides the fact that the humour needs editing, I really think that you did well, trying to make the humour for all audiences; nice and clean.

Overall, I give this flash a 9, because it seems good enough to pay a visit to television stations, but should never become a flash 'movie' (using that context as in: 1 hr+ in one show).

Excellent job, Adrian (Sorbitol)!

Yours truly,

Dan, HRM

sorbitol responds:

Thanks for the cool review!
This is really helpful and I'll definitely take your comments on board before starting the next episode.

I just wanted to avoid cheap jokes and concentrate on trying to build a story around the characters.
There were some funny ideas I had but there was so much to fit in and I was rapidly running out of frames that I guess I sacrificed most of the jokes for the sake of the story- but I'm getting there.

Thanks again, Dan! :)

[SRM Transformers]

Hmm...

This half-deserves front page.

I admit, this was one fine figured humour attempt. You did well at the jokes, and I actually laughed at them. You know your humour, but you need good animation to stick with it. One symbol with static arms does not fit the jokes well. Some places seemed a bit vague on details, such as when one of the guys said "Hay guyz", you know? Kinda "ZING" off the brain there. Also, the dance moves were kind of lame.

But hey, I liked it! What you lacked in the animation, you definately made up for the humour. I'd give you a 10, but I think a 7 is more deserving. Don't worry, I think it's awesome. I just don't think it's a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup full of awesome.

Your friend,
-Dan, HRM

Battosai810 responds:

hey, totally fair review. good one too!
the animation is a little chintzy, but then again, it was on the old cartoon too. in that sense I'm slightly limited by my fairly inflexible character designs.
and who said robots were good at dancing? lol

the "hey guys" thing is a running joke in my cartoons. every time someone says it something invariably bad happens to them - so there's the backstory on that.

anyway, glad you still found it enjoyable, and thanks for the constructive crticism!

[Cole's New Grounds]

Work To Do!

Hey there!

Okay, this submission was average, POSSIBLY a bit over average. Your animations went well with the flash, and you got the guts to post yourself.

But, you need lots and lots of sound. If you are level 5, say it, and add a "KACHING" sword kind of sound (or whatever the hell they sound like.) And if someone says "Fuck you", they should be pissed, so try 'yelling' (but not too loudly!) to the other hand.

But good job on the hand and animation! I loved it!

One extra tip... but music in the background. Quieter than everything else, but very noticable. And please, for the love of god, don't make it The Spanish Flea. </3.

Your friends of Newgrounds,

Thanks for the input. I was adding this kinda like a pilot to see if people like it, and then I'd make it better and you really helped me out.

[A flash for you]

Interesting Concept!

Hello, greghatesevry1!

I must say, your animation was great. Most of it was wonderful. I saw that rocket, and I thought graphics were impressive. It overall was, including the blur. It was kind of short, but it suited well. The stabbing part wasn't the best part, as it seems you got lazy and decided to just say "screw it. Let's get to the fucking point, shall we?!" you know?

But you know, it really wasn't that bad.

Kudos to you, my friend.

-Dan, from HRM

greghatesevry1 responds:

Thanx man. For some of this flash i did try hard but eventually i was like you said, "ef this" and just wanted to get it done.

ANyhway thankx again and have a good day!

[Madness Gossip 2]

Sorry

I apologize, but this was some bad stuff.

For one, your voice would be fine, but the microphone and recorder needs some adjusting. That static stuff, nuh-uh. Any of that and your flash is going down the sink. Newgrounds members are like that.

Number two, your jokes had no point. You were just stating random things that had no real sense to the actual madness theme flashes. I consider your attempts at humour awful, to put it bluntly. May I suggest making some animations of them? For example, if one character says he saw the sheriff fucking a shampoo bottle (okay...o.o), then jump to a scene where the clown song is playing, while you at least ATTEMPT to draw & animate the sheriff... well, fucking a shampoo bottle. And maybe, if you want, make that person who said so be in the background, puking, or whatever. Get it? Good.

And last but not least, NEVER, EVER put a terrible static sound (the one at the end where that static was happening and that terrible face was "That sounded sexy". That voice was terrible. Might I suggest you don't make an annoying voice?).

Oh, and before I wrap this up, let me let you know... no offense or anything such as, but, may I suggest growing about 5 years older before displaying your voice onto Newgrounds? People don't take too kindly to young kids being here. What with the Adult section and all that. Any 10 year old (I know you aren't 10, I'm pretty sure) could just click "I agree" (or whatever that button is named that will let you pass the warning thing), and have access to tits, cocks, and all that. Think of the children!

So, I hope that helps. You have a good one, nggangsterpimp!

Peace out,

-Dan, from HRM

nggangsterpimp responds:

tanks for the review. ill think about what you said. oh and im 15 now.

[Webcamoose!]

Wonderful!

This was a very interesting flash! It was very unique, for sure!

My favourite character was personally the moose.

I loved how you acted from real life to animated creatures. You made it seem like it was the real thing. Good job on this flash!

BritishMoose, you are completely awesome. I want more. Pleeeassee. :O

-Dan

BritishMoose responds:

Well I wouldn't say COMPLETELY awesome...partially fo' sure :D

Thanks for the review! Expect more from the moose soon!
