Syrupmasterz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[With Animation You Can!]

The fact that you can animate with the skill of an entire 80's animation studio is incredible to me.
You have my absolute respect. :P

[Crash For Skylanders?!]

Not bad! Script and voice wise this is fairly funny, so most improvements would mostly be coming from the animation itself.

-Your characters usually stay in a single pose while talking. If you added some additional movement, such as blinking or arm/body movements; they would seem less stiff and become more animated.
-Lip sync is pretty good! This is a minor critic, but I would suggest you double check line thickness when you use a shape tween for mouth movements.
-For future explosion scenes, having glass shatter or having debris fly out will add to the devastation effect you were going for.

Some improvements here and there and this will be even better. Keep it man! :P

Mewx responds:

Thanks! :)

[Markimation: Black Rose]

Superb for a first time animation, I'd hardly call this a bomb.
WAY LAZIER HAS BEEN CRANKED OUT, this on the other hand has good attention to detail, but has a few parts where the animation is a little bit slower then the rest of the movie.
Artistically and animation wise this is really good, but like I mentioned above, there are several moments where there are fewer frames of animation going into a sequence compared to other parts. Adding some more frames of animation to these areas as well as looking over the lip syncing again will remove these gaps and make the end product higher quality than what it currently is.

Rome wasn't built in a day, contrary to what Ancient Romans want you to believe.
Keep your chin up, practice and learn after mistakes and you'll see that your art will improve.
If you fear what people might think and don't do anything, then nothing gets made at all.
You posted a video so now you can receive constructive feedback.
From here its up to you to look at previous works and set goals for future projects.

Good work and good luck! :P

[Snorlax has Lunch: This i]

Not bad for a short animation. However there are a few things that would make this better.
-Adding some sound effects when the Diglet slides in and when the Snorlax spews rainbows would make the movie less silent and overall less empty.
-Having the Snorlax exhibit some movement (wobbling, arm movement etc...) while shooting the rainbow out would add to the animation and make it seem more fluid.
-Having the Pokemon in the top left move up and down slightly as the animation goes on will prevent it from looking like its attached to the wall and more as a character.
-Having an end screen with a "Repeat Movie?" button will make the animation have a clear end, and prevent it from looping continuously.

A few tweaks and extra sound effects and this animation will be a bit better.
Hopefully the next one will be even better. :P

BrownOceanMan responds:

Thanks for the tips man. I'm actually working on another animation and I'll make sure it's way better than this poop.

[Dragon Ball Multiverse 3]

Aside from the occasional few scenes where shading was limited, the animation and art was well done throughout the entire movie.
As I've said before, any animation longer than two minutes always gets my respect, and here you are with nine.
I congratulate all of the voice actors on good performances and I look forward to the next one. :P

[MK: Luigi Death Stare]

Cripes! That was brutal. :P

Animation and character wise I don't have any suggestions for improvement, the shading is well done and the animation is very fluid.
What I CAN suggest is maybe adding a little bit of extra detail for the mountain hills in the background. Perhaps a couple of closer hills with shading.
Other than this is really good, great work!

hbrunav responds:

Thanks! I had little time to make this, I had to rush on the backgrounds

[Luigi Kart]

This was well done!
The animation was pretty fluid throughout, however if you could add a little bit more when it shows Luigi being intense behind Mario (moustache blowing in the wind, wheel lines etc...), then the movie would be that much better.

Good work overall though! :P

k7vin responds:

Thank you for the praise and the helpful critique. And I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[Legend of Zelda - Korok]

Wasn't expecting something that scary. :P
Not bad! The animation and voice acting was good which added to the joke at the end.
Throwing in some sound effects for when the rises into view and when Link walks away would make this video a bit more complete.

Great work!
