JakBaronKing's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kerslash Episode 1]

Shows allot of effort and animation tallent. Did you animated it all yourself. That's allot of hard work.

Though your script to me feel a little uneventful. I feel that if you were to make an intro episode, we should at least know more and start to care about these characters. 15 minutes longer would enabled that. It felt allot like "flash cards" to me. this is her, this is him, okay let's move on.

Also, I don't quite understand the 'lore' of this world. That could've been expressed a bit more. Though I suppose you wish for people to read your web comic.

Granted it is the first episode. Let's see how it develops. The your framing could use 'some' fine tuning. I would suggest using Flash in combination with 'after-effects' or perhaps in combination with 3D as you show in your demo reel.

To get people to really care, you need to WOW them. And I mean really WOW them.

I'm not an animator nor a writer. I'm merely an audience with honesty.

But good luck in your future projects.

[Toons These Days: Ep 14]

I said the exact same thing about the Looney Tunes show.

But don't forget those annoying songs they put in. First it seems like a joke for adults with the relationships and the taxes, but then they sing a sappy jingle for the little ones.

[The Reluctant Messiah]

You know, I always found that most sects of Christanity view Jesus or God as a sorta 'Santa Clause' figure. Praying, barganing, etc.

The real change and revelation should come from within. And wisdom can only be acquired though experience and a willingness to be open-minded.

Love never blossoms without being a little bit brave.

Good concept. Perhaps that's how creatures evolved. To the ones that grew from mere cells in the ocean, dared to crawl on land, or even attempted to leap from high-places and evolved wings.

[Parody Parody Parody]

Why is 'absurity' so funny?

Seriously man, you've got a weird sense of humor.

AND I'M lOVIN' IT!

[When Norris Plays Slender]

Since the election season, I've come to realize that Chuck Norris is nothing more than a martial arts meat-head, who is a delusional, pompous, and bigoted zealot who puts speaks highly on dogma and right-wingedness vs empathy, tolerance, understanding, and unity.

So to that, I actually renounce all that I once believe about Chuck Norris' awesomeness.

He just not that awesome. He's actually kinda crazy.

--------

But despite my personal beliefs, the flash itself is quite funny. As if somehow a roundhouse kick forced the face to emerge from Slenderman.

Very random and very funny.

[A Simple Melody: No Evil 004]

This is an interesting lore to this animal world you've created.

You also are a beautiful voice actress/singer.

[SS ~ The Torus]

Nikola Tesla's device looks like some kind of alien device.

I always thought it was strange that SUDDENLY during the late 1800's there was this HUGE shift in technology.

Greed and oppression seems pointless if there is an infinite amount of recourses and energy.
Yet there it is.

I cannot understand that.

[Hyper Halloween]

It's like "Kiki's Delievery Service" + "Dubstep"

Jadman's music is pretty badass! So seeing it like this makes me wish for either a game or a movie.

[SS ~ Water]

By 'transmutation' ...

Isn't it possible for a person to consume 'angry' water and convert it into 'happy' water simply by good attitude alone? After all, we would have to totally rearrange our plumbing if you are correct.

Cause by retrospect, plants use water to grow well. But you don't see 'organic' water being used right? lol. They simply 'are' by using what's around them.

It's like, we can evolve into a species that can filter impurities easily through our systems. From within, there is no poison. Just conversion and transmutation.

Besides, I don't know which crystals are safe for purifying my water. I wanna try it, I think I'll purchase a big glass jug and try it for a while in the sun.

Any advice on crystals for water drinking?

A very thought provoking study you've done. Hoping you well in 2012. I wonder what will happen.

RiverJordan responds:

Absolutely, just know that theres a difference between putting healthy water into you and having it give its love to you, and having "unhappy" water into you, which you shift within you, and then letting it go. Ultimately, were using our bodies as filters to transmute water and other energies... isn't that intense.

Try any crystals you like, stay away from selenite in water because it will dissolve. More info in the Crystals episode :)

[SS - The Four Elements]

This is really cool.

But it goes to saying that many religions still find conflicts with each other. I assume everyone's got it somewhat right and somewhat wrong.

Is it logical to assume that our existence came from one source? The Big Bang? God? etc.

If so...is it logical to assume that 'one' particular religion is correct?

Or do we all have just parts of it like a puzzle piece? Is everything one?

Like the parable of "Seven Blind Men" the Indian story of the men and the elephant?

This series seems to encompass both scientific and creationist theories.

Almost as if the fact that our imaginations could very well be the conceptualizing ideas of both past and future events, inventions, situations, etc.

Perhaps it's not so much as to 'why we made wrong choices, or why there is evil.'

Perhaps it's the fact that these random occurrences happen by means of free will and our chemical reactions indicates that we are learning and growing by observation, experience, and essentially...suffering or stress.

Evolution states that we are in a type of mutation, natural selection, gene flow, and genetic drifting.

Hence why we have evolved so different as a single species. From different cultures,skin color, height, life-span, etc.

Much like how a past species split apart *missing links, to evolve into apes and humans, it is entirely possible that humans will continue to evolve into something different.
