Markface's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Monopoly Reality]

'twas alright.

Surely this makes it's way solely on the quality of your voice acting and monopoly jokes but surely, surely you could of added some animation. Hell, the lip synching wasn't even there, just the repetition of ups and down mouth movements.

I know you have a huge list saying why not to take this seriously but it's still an animation... or lack of. I think the animation would of been a hell of a lot better if you added some basic scenes. It wouldn't of taken much time, no doubt.

The jokes themselves were nice but these types of jokes NEED something visual to back them up. Not 2 guys rocking back and forth with cards flashing up occasionally.

true true I get what you mean. I was gonna keep the animation getting better in each one, so IF IIIF I do a next one, then there's gonna b the rocking animation, but they will be in different scenes :) but thanks for the critisism, it's what I like about these sort of reviews, not the ones that just say it's total bull crap xD

[Sonic in Search for Love]

what.

Well hands down this has to be one of the greatest animations on the site.

I could just tell, just tell that this was going to get dirty. But you still surprised me as to how dirty it would get. The simple, childhood drawings only made this entire story more hilarious.

Secondly... the voice acting was perfect. Fit this entire animation just brilliantly. Not sure why he became British near the end, but that's just one of the leaves on this giant tree that is "what".

[Two Fight]

Distracting.

The background at first looked promising of setting the animation aside to a different and more contemporary version of stick battles, instead it wasn't. It simply got in the way of the transparent-headed stick figures and distracted the fight itself.

The characters themselves did not show any real show of physics or bodily control, making this quite unbelievable. I know, I know, it's a stick fight and anything can happen, right? Well, one thing all good stick animations is fluency and correctness in the ability of human function.

Spend a little more time on making the sticks look more realistic. It's too hard to keep track if there's no distillable differences.

Good luck in the future.

[Whiny the pooh]

It felt... cliche.

I mean, Winnie the Pooh going ape shit for honey? Treating it like it's heroin itself? This sort of joke has been overdone. Besides the original joke itself you didn't really build anything else, just him sitting around for a bit bitching for a little bit.

I understand the animation is suppose to be short but you could of at least put a little more effort into the script itself.

The visuals were nice, the animation was basic but that's all that's really required for a yellow bear sitting around. The voice acting was spot on mind you.

Finally, I'm not sure you need 20 second long credits for an animation that lasts close to that long.

something about the last part of your review made me laugh

[DASH it!]

I really quite enjoyed this.

The one downside to this animation, as mentioned in some reviews before was the level of inconsistency. I mean, all in all a music video may stretch as far to be random, but in an animated feature some levels are just too far.

With that aside, the animation was great. You filled it to the brim with fluent and wonderful effects that truly kept me entertained for the entirety of the animation, which is something most music videos are unable to do.

The fluency in the frame by frame work was marvelous, and not just with the character and physical animation. A ton of the effects look absolutely amazing and I could only sit here and imagine how long it must of spent you piecing it all together.

Great work.

[don't watch this]

Not sure why...

But I'm still laughing from the reaction to the soup face plant.

Quick, quirky 5 second animations, one after the other. Brought out my immature side and entertained me again and again.

Good job.

[The Travelling Sandwich]

Mind warp.

Well clearly this was based off a real life event, I won't doubt that.

The animation was fluent and absurd. One of my favorite things would be the sound track used simply when the bug then comes on it. Completely steals the life of the animation.

[Hny (happy New Year!)]

Creepy.

This animation was great. A wonderful use of colors and fluent animation. Most animations that follow this experimental style suffer from being too dark or too psychedelic, but you had a nice bland mix. It worked well.

[Zonked]

Brilliant.

I loved this. The whole sexual vibe between the predator and the prey was very well exploited. The noir comic book style went well with this intention and the background music did not distract me from the animation.

You really can't top it. Great work, favorite'd.

[Blood Vessel]

Psychedelic

Well, I tripped balls here. I really enjoy your style of animation for reasons unknown. Turns out the weirder things in life keep me entertained.

Good work.
