Dwedit's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cute Piggy II (JAP)]

I've seen this before

Looks like you lost the original font.

This one looks like it needs an extra 100 pixels at the bottom so the words don't get in the way.

I don't really like to give high scores for resubmissions... even though I'm guilty of that too (Suzukisan Subtitiled anyone?).

I think this one would be a lot better if you ditched the ugly transparent text box that covers the movie and put it at the bottom of the flash. Yeah, I'm pretty much telling you to make it look like my flash :P

Hey, looks like it was updated at the end, got rid of the Taliban crap and replaced it with insanity!

Cute Piggy's Revenge III coming ever? If not I'll make it.

[Dan Hibiki for Prezidénté]

REALLY DAMN GOOD FANIMUTATION!

This one had that EXTREME insanity and intensity only seen in other great Fanimutations like Boom Boom Dolla, GenderNeutral, PokeyAndTheOmbaoojiebaseo, Shumway, and TheRichardKeilExperience, and has earned its place among the top of the charts.

I especially liked the scenes with the guy from the Zelda commercial adjusting his glasses, and the scene with the inverted colors Amy Rose with Tricky the Clown. The video game parodies were also very nice. The only other really funny stuff was the guy dressed up as Toad. The overlord hamburger was cool too. Not to mention that the music was just plain insane.

You need a better preloader, I could send you the one I use if you want it.

How long did it take you to make this thing? It looks like it took forever!

MrUpYoursHomie responds:

Forever and a Half, really. It did take forever, but persistants allowed to finish this. but after all my effort, not very meny people checked this peice out, which dissappointed me so much.

I would like to check you your preloader, cause yeah, I'm not exactly a Newgrounds Fan, but a Man who just can't get enough fishsticks. My AIM name in my Profile. no Viruses, now.

Okay...

The sound was too buzzy, and this flash movie wasn't nearly as good as the Other Flash Movie that used this music, Penny's Big Adventure!

Penny's Big Adventure kicks this thing's ass any day!

Otherwise, besides that major point, this was a halfway okay flash, but just not great. The humor value of hearing Barbie Girl in dutch is nil and has been done to death already by Groundpoint.

[How To Create A Button]

The button sucks

The button created here is no good, first you make a circle, then you create a new symbol as a button? WRONG!

[PokeyAndTheOmbaoojiebaseo]

Excellent Fanimutation!

For some reason I missed this one when it came up on the portal a long time ago... (because you never bothered to put the word 'animutation' in the flash movie description so it doesn't appear on portal searches!)

This one kicks ass. It's got Arfenhouse, hell, that's enough to get a 5 vote from me. This one goes over the top, very similar to TheRichardKielExperience and GenderNeutral. (hmmmm...:)

It's crazy and fun, and the music kicked ass! Be sure to crank up the volume before you watch this thing!

[Super Mario]

It's an old joke..

This kind of portal entry is so common that it appeared on the Cliche Movie entry....

I just wanted to say, Stream your audio! go to the properties box, click on the audio event, and set it to STREAM instead. Streams are nice because they synchronize the audio to the movie.

Also, clip your imported mp3 files first using a program like goldwave.

DecepticonClock responds:

Thanks for the tip. At least you said something constructive.

[My Car is an Automobile11]

I liked this one.

Very "Good Times"ish. Just made by someone else instead.

[Charakter Movie 5]

Great graphics

But it would be incredibly easy to shave 2 megabytes off the flash movie by setting the sound to Stream instead of Event, and lower the bitrate of the audio down to 16kbps.

Sorry, can't give high scores to uncompressed mp3 files stuck in flash movies. Nice art though, better than anything I could draw.

[All Your Gates]

Next time, stream the audio.

Next time, set the audio to STREAM rather than Event. This movie currently has no sync between the audio and video, and that makes me vote 0's unless the movie is really good.

[The Night Santa Went NUTS]

It was only okay...

This one was worth at least 2, I gave it a protection point.

I'll give you credit though, It's a lot better than those crappy blam movies that have uncompressed 4MB mp3s in the flash movies... Good job using streaming audio!
