UriahTWolfe's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[C. Crashing Frost King]

Eskimos? :-? I thought they were...

...assholes. :-/ Seriously, that's what they looked like. Great flash, in any case, though! :-)

[Dot Dot Dot - Animated]

Totally epic.

Never in my life did I ever think I'd get to see a truly "epic" grammar flame - this was a most excellent choice of voice acting tracks for trying typomation with. Your nuances were flawless - I especially liked your depiction of "this game is crap!" - the slow start speed and then the sudden rapid drop once it's cleared the upper edge of the screen - PERFECT! Please, feel free to do more like this. :-) If you need someone to read something for you and this dude's not available, I'll be glad to do it, though I have to admit I don't think I could do it nearly as well as this dude. Great work to both of you! :-)

[let the cat out]

"Aaaugh!"

Loved that first scream. TOO cute. Love the cat, too. I think I recognize that cat. That... is scary. :-#

[Across the Universe Ep.2]

Great - but man, long wait! :-)

I've been waiting for this one to come out. As intriguing as I'd hoped. Now, please, don't make the next one take quite so long if you can help it - 2 years is a long time to wait for a next installment. ;-) Still, thanks for sharing & keep it up! :-)

[the special present]

Confusing, but good.

Not bad. Lots of interesting subtle animation quirks (like stationary textures on moving clothes) and just creepy enough to make you want to know what the thing in the box is. Do you plan on doing any more to show where the "mask"-thing (or whatever it is) came from? Love to see it if you do. :-)

tecatense - In the U.S., there's a Christmas carol called "What Child Is This?" set to the same tune as "Greensleeves". Yah, I know - it annoys me, too. ;-) Though it -is- a pretty song and fun to play. :-)

turtleco responds:

I'm glad the ending intrigued you more than annoyed you.

and yeah, is just Greensleeves "the Christmas carol version" I guess

[Santa Saw Trap]

Definitely took some work!

Ordinarily, I might have rated this perhaps a 3 and given it 5 or 6 out of 10 for effort, but the criticism I see you've received thus far is really rather harsh. So I'm giving you 10/10 and 5/5 just to offset that. Frankly, for a first submission, I think you did a great job. Had you been submitting for years and years and years and produced something like this, I probably would've flamed you. But for a first effort, I really don't think it's half bad at all. It's criticism like some prior reviews that makes a person not even want to bother trying any more, but I think you should just ignore that. Granted, you could use some practiie, and I wouldn't lie and tell you it's really high-quality professional work just yet or anything - but just getting the gumption to start and having the nerve to subject your work for others to pick to pieces - that's worth a good solid commentation, imho. It really wasn't bad even so, I enjoyed it. Certainly things get passed on here that make this look like an all-out Spielberg production in comparison, so I say great work! Keep it up, and hope to see more from you! :-)

As for the flash itself, the material as intended was actually pretty good. The vocal mannerisms were right in-line with the movies - definitely could've been louder and sharper, but the rhythm & the challenge itself were right on-par. Kepp it up! :-)
