Syrupmasterz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Feast or Famine]

I feel like as I find better stuff, I actually do worse because I get lured into a false sense of security. :P

But yeah, the keys are never there when you need them the most. haha

[A Seizurific Return]

In just a few short years, your stuff has become much, MUCH more fluid.
Super proud of ya dude!

(also glad you're bouncing back fairly quick from the hospital stay)

Mewx responds:

Thanks man, I really appreciate it.

[Lunar Kicks]

Ah...see...you might have the others fooled, but I see past the supposed 'sad ending' immediately!

The Space Wizard, seen near the beginning of the short, was the least concerned about the whole situation, and was in fact secretly in cahoots with the customer.

After fixing the space craft (which was obviously damaged by bounty hunters in previous attempts to kill him), the man was ready to be teleported away by the Space Wizard just in time before the explosion so he could fake his death, and return to his family without any fear of the price on his head.
It's why the scrap team was already en route for the fallen parts after the blast, since the Space Wizard already told them what was going to happen after seeing the future via space magic.

To the untrained eye, it may seem a tragic, fiery end for the stranger...but since there is no blood after the explosion, and of course since he tells the mechanic that he's a man of his word with the I.O.U, he will someday return to fully repay the kindness. The mechanic merely weeps and laughs for rent is due soon and I.O.Us aren't legal tender.

All the pieces of evidence/lore are there, ya just gotta know how to look for them. :P

Nice one dude! All the work really paid off with this one!
Here I was thinking that Duncan And Jones 3 was massive in terms of effort, but all of those backgrounds were *painted*. So that's like...hours and hours alone for a handful of shots alone.

Your cinematography has also improved a lot, and you made use of some cool parallax to give stuff a neat 3D effect from time to time.

A few loose ends with plot, namely the other little creatures and people that weren't the mechanic, but I figure that they're just happy inhabitants of the moon, so I don't question it that much. haha

Stellar work Snacker! You and the rest of the whole team. :)

Snackers responds:

I dig your whole interpretation a lot syrup, even if the endings a bummer I don't think its all doom n gloom cause tomorrow always comes, and the mechanic might end up really helping somebody eventually..!
appreciate the kind words, there really is a whole lot I'd do differently if I were to try this concept again, but for now I'm happy enough. thanks syrup!!

"SKIN CELLS SON! They regenerate in response to physical trauma! You can't hurt me Issac!"

[Scratchin' Melodii Ozie Mockup]

Games need more random boss battles. :P

[Big Gaming]

DUDE! You can play as Evil Hoss?!
I beat the story mode on Medium Rare and I still haven't unlocked him.

[Big Hoss And His Smoker]

I humbly request a looping gif of the first 14 seconds if it's not too much to ask. :P

[Dez's Confession]

Well this was just downright adorable. :P

[Chip of Potato]

Some mighty fine chip eating...maybe even in the Top 100 best chip eating sequences.

(mild spoilers below)

Some slick stuff Tiltro!
Since you asked for some criticism, I'd say that the whole toon was nice and fleshed out the whole way through. Only time the quality was slightly lower was when the Alien Saucer lowered down, and then flew back up.

In the shots where the saucer was just in the background, it looked more detailed and blinky.
The shot where the door opens up and the fog releases before the alien steps out is missing a couple sound effects as well, whereas the rest of the toon was SFX-rich.

Just teeny tiny things, otherwise I can tell this was made with love and the grease from the chips that were eaten.

Keep up the stellar work dude!

Tiltro responds:

Thanks for the criticism and reading the description. I'm glad it's not one word and you put the time to right a neat little review. Thank you again, you are a friendly Yeti yo

[Mimic]

Good foreshadowing and jokes, but a couples moments like rummaging through the skeleton for loot were just a tiny bit slow or held too long.

I like your camera angles, but same with the knight looting the skeleton. When he turns around to notice something, the camera could have done a slight shift to make it a bit more dramatic to indicate he sees something interesting.

Keep it up! :D

GallowJolt responds:

Appreciate the feedback mate, I'm happy the knight looting the skeleton was translated well enough too
