JakBaronKing's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[3rd Grade Transformers]

Huh.........

I dunno Ego, the humdrum-humor is still there.

I get the feeling that this is the only kind of personality you can express. Is this all you know? The same kind of humor show-cased the exact same way in each following episodes.

I dunno, some people like it some people don't.

It's well animated, but I'm not laughing anymore.

:(

It makes me sad because I used to love your animations.

----------------

Maybe it's time to show case some work that isn't like your other animations.

Forget Comedy...let's try some Tragety.

Forget Slap-Stick...let's try some Action!

You have the talent man, can't we see something different?

[Bee & Dino]

A bit misleading but very plesant

A bit choppy here and there but incredibly nice for a first flash!

+ Good composition of colors
+ Wondeful choice of music
+ Scenic Backgrounds
+ A pleasant and sweet ending

- A bit choppy on occasion
- The music seems thrown off with the scratch (doesn't meet timed joke)
- A bit short on length. Should be a bit longer or last till end of song.

[Hawaiian Puppies]

Somewhat simular to Chluaid's work...

by means of beautiful backgrounds and fantasy creatures.
EX: Bitey of Brickenwood.

But a cultural misrepresentation has been demonstrated. The music sounds more 'Africian' than Hawaiian. I should know.

Course, the term "Hawaiian Puppies" could merely be a name to express that these characters are "tribal" and not necessarily "Hawaiian".

Still...you should credit the music that you used or made.

It was smoothly animated and pleasant to the viewer.

[Madness: Rising]

Feels somewhat experimental.

There is an incredible lack of scenery change, and effective use of sound effects.

It's very repetitive without the thrill and chills of your last year's submission. Unlike in your last Madness submission "Madness:Deus Ex Machina" there was this incredible intensity demonstrated.

This was in my honest opinion. Still a working progress.

HOWEVER

This is a demonstration of amazing style and 2-D/3-D art.

it takes Kringles' original style and you've completely revision it into something completely new and thrilling.

It was by far the best submission out of all the others and worthy of the 1K dollar prize.

Holy shit....1 K!?

This earns 1st place because of your masterful use of 3-D animation and the inventive style and look of the characters.

[Spider-Ninja]

Marvel is trying that whole anime thing...

And this is pretty good. But it just needs a bit more work.

Other than - you show good potential.

[Cuboy Ep.3]

That was so delightfully weird!

Because it's British...it's more...understated.

I love how every character, object, and animal is a cube that fits perfectly in place, and even how the whole cube universe is just a small cube that changes.

Such a unique perspective in quirky animation.

It was Cube-Tastic.

[Knuckles Briefs]

I mean no offense when I say this...

But please...take what I have to say with just a grain of salt...

But don't cha think that this displays an unusually unhealthy obsession with "Sonic the Hedgehog"?

I mean...you guys are average in your twenties and you keep making these flashes around a Kids Cartoon Character with foolish adolescent anecdotes. Sure the appeal is good for the younger audiences of Newgrounds, but....

I see the lack of creativity in these flashes in comparison to your animation skills.

It's like...what a waste of time and effort. Such Smooth Animation for mum-dame humor.

It's like...you possess true Flash Animation skills...but I all see from your homepages are "Sonic the Hedgehog"....why not something of your own design your own unique perceptive of art.

I mean...Sonic Games are cool...but these flashes make me kinda tired of Sonic.

Yeah yeah I know..."If You Don't Like It then Don't Watch It"

Okay...I won't

I just sometimes wish I DO want to watch it. But every time I do...it's like...

"Sigh"

"Again with this"

[I Love You Blowtorch Eyes]

Beautiful

The whole idea of having the animation through a blip screen is an interesting touch.

But it allowed the animation to be obscure enough so that one could only see the general idea of love and making love without it being too graphic.

it's a really beautiful song.

d-z responds:

Glad you are pleased.

[Professor Fucking Layton]

It did throw me off at times that a puzzle existed

during the heat of a crime scene.

But wasn't "Diabolical Box" kinda...weird? The ending at least. Though when Don Par appeared I had absolutely no idea.

---

I kinda agree with Coop83.

Make a short game based around the professor layton series, but make it all...CSI Las Vegas and stuff. All violent, drugs, sex.

But then...get thrown off with a dumb childish puzzle you can copy from a library book.

It'll be fuckin' hillarious!

backwardcompatible responds:

NO SPOILERS. I'm not done with Diabolical Box yet.

[Dad's at Work]

A Marvel of Cartoon Shenanigans

Never has there been anything so random, and fast-pace, so visually hilarious...

The sheer abnormality of behavior envisioned is a true masterpiece of kinetic comedy.

People say that cartoons will make you stupid...But it takes a genius to think of something this clever.

Will forever be a favorite in my life. I will show this animation to every friend and family I know.

----

What I would really like to see is a DVD of "DAD"...

REVAMPED...REANIMATED...PROFESSIONAL MEDIA.

And I would buy it off the NG store and treasure it forever.
