Matija27's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ADVENTURE BABIES - SODAR]

While the cartoon is a bit of a mess, the animation is good and the random humor is... well, not for me, but I understand why people like it. I did not had problems with audio. Actually, I wouldn't mind hearing the same audio quality in the next episode.
However, I can't help but to think that this will be yet another cartoon series on Newgrounds that we will have to wait 3-4 months for the next episode. I hope I'm wrong.
All in all, great start of a series :)

[Pulp Pixelz]

I would like to see more iconic scenes turned into short pixelated cartoons. Great and entertaining stuff, keep em coming :D

[Coca Cola Evolution]

So far the best Coca-Cola commercial I've ever seen :D

[Spiderdub: Sarcophagus]

It had it's funny moments but not enough to get 5 stars. The fight scene with Spiderman and Goblin was hillarious, and the voices are good.
Now, I got to say something about the whole "this belongs to youtube" controversy. I don't see why this can't be on Newgrounds. TomaMoto did many dubs and put them here, and I haven't seen many complaints about it.
However, now that videos can be uploaded on Newgrounds, what is stopping people to upload their fan made trailers, let's plays and reviews of various stuff? Since your dub made it daily first, that could encourage people to do exactly that, and that stuff really doesn't belong on Newgrounds.
But, to finish this review on a happy note, I look forward to see next dubs, and good luck with it :)

[Pacific]

I did not expect that ending. Very well animated. Actually, one of the best sprite movies I've seen lately. It is sad that there are almost no deep sprite cartoons like this one. You managed to make a sprite cartoon that goes beyond a stereotipical sprite cartoon, in both story and animation, something that I've been trying to do for quite some time, and with this cartoon I think you have proved that even sprite cartoons can be as well executed as any other cartoon. I got to admit I almost got a teary eye watching this. Keep up the god work :)

[Pleasure Island 4]

Don't you dare not to make the sequel :P
Great animation, great humor, awesome fighting sequence and randomness all over the place. Keep em coming :D

[TIMELESS (NATA '12)]

Wow, this is really, really good. Animation, music and story is so well put together, and only in one week. Damn. It baffles me that this was made 12 FPS and yet it moves like 24 FPS, at least for me.
I have some issues with your description of the cartoon. It is one of those cartoons that should let the watcher create his own meaning of the cartoon and not to be explained by the author. But I am not here to review a description. One can just skip it.
What really bothered me was the design of the characters. It didn't fit into the story and it was distracting. I was expecting some funny moments because how characters were designed, like something from Cartoon Network. Just for that I give it 4.5 stars, but it is a great cartoon and I can't wait to see your other stuff for NATA. Let's face it, you will move to the next round :)
Good luck :)

[Shadow of the Animators]

If it only had that last part, the "I hate this game" part, it would be good. As it is, it is too long and I almost quit watching it, but thankfully the last part made it worth. I don't mind long cartoons, but it wasn't funny at all, and I know that not all the cartoons have to be funny, but this one was clearly aiming for comedy, and it failed, except, of course, in the last scene. Nice animation though.

[STARBARIANS - Episode 1]

Good premise, wonderful animation, weak story. It just didn't work for me. I understand why people find it funny but I didn't laugh even once. That Killgar's derp looking face made me smile though.
Seeing how much effort you have put into this I doubt we will see episode 2 in a near future, a mistake that many animators on newgrounds make and I don't understand why. Heck, even I made that same mistake.
Still, it is pretty to look at and I hope that next episodes will be better :)

[VO Home Studio : Space]

Not only is this cartoon educational but it is also fun to watch and the humor really grabs the viewers attention.
I hope many people will find this useful. I'm sure I will.
Great stuff, keep em coming :)
