matthew-ferguson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bob&Jacks Abortion Clinic]

was I the only one that thought this one was..

Was I the only one that thought this one was of bad taste. Dude why even use a topic like that to do... well i guess its not really flash! People are getting living babies ripped out of the everyday and you take it as a joke. Your two sick twisted little men.

[the adventures of BAGMAN]

Alright dude.

Nice flash but some parts werent lipsynced to well. And your mic skills could use some work.

dretrock responds:

yeah, that was my first actual flash....hey, at least it wasnt some stick man tweened to fly across the screen :)

[Lilium]

At the end of this I was in awe.

This was very interesting. Never done before I don't think... We'll anyways im going to give this one a perfect score.

GOOD STUFF.
1. Your artwork is unmatched on newgrounds. I have seen good artwork but never any like this. It looks like something on T.V.
2. The music fits perfectly. Very strange and creepy but it fits perfectly.
3. The backgrounds for the text looked like authentic silent movie backgrounds. I don't know if thats what you were going for but either way it looks awesome.
4. The border was very creative. It was a lot better than just a square screen. It was a twisted border for a twisted story.
5. Your backgrounds for everything were just perfect.
6. The plot was very crazy. The fetus was just creepy.
7. The way you animate your eyes for your characters is really cool.

THINGS THAT COULD OF USED MORE WORK.
1. You didn't animate much. It was like a picture that was being moved. But it was a good effect in a way. So I don't know if thats good or bad.

One of the best things i've seen in a while.

[The Fall of Sigma Ep. 1]

Just crap.

I found this flash after looking at one made by themasterofsprites.
You were telling him he had no skill. Well no ones perfect and you arent either. Your far from it.

BAD THINGS
1. The begging was just a bunch of text and screen shots. The last time I checked that isn't proper flash.
2. The begging music was the proper music for this flash but only played out of one side of the speaker and one side of the headphones im using. My equipment is quality because i tested it after this. Very annoying.
3. Your graphics kinda emm.... suck. For the animation you actually did it was very poor.
4. Listen carefully....SLOW DOWN THAT TEXT... Thank you. We HUMANS at NG cannot read text that goes by that fast. Most of it was fine but some important text was just over before we had the time to read it.
5. Why did Zero kill the soliders?? Is there some part of the plot i missed because the TEXT went way to fast. Text speed is very important there bucko.
6. And the movie kinda droped off. I dont know when your gonna finish this ( probably never) because its been months since you submited this. Make the next one longer if there is a next one. If not i'll have a good time blaming it.
7. At the end where you show the cast. Some of the pictures were cut off so it looked like Mega Man had no legs. WTF!!!

And just a side note. Before you leave bad reviews for other flash artist think about your own work. You dont have any room to talk smack. And grow some rank for god sake!!! n00b.

[The Gumball Machine]

Happy Lock Day!!

Wow. Dude... this rocks!! Happy lock day!! This gets a good review!

GOOD STUFF
1. Lock movies are always cool. And yours are no exception.
2. As always nice animation. I may start making lock animation.
3. The songs kicked ass!! Green Day rules and so does Blink.
4. The gumball machine thing was pretty funny. " Clock Lock we love you... Shut the hell up!" Genuis line man.
5. The phone part was cool. "What the duece?"

Well im kinda tired its been a long day. So ill cut this one short.
One question. When is Sandmans world 2 commin out?
~M~

sandman0277 responds:

Thanks again, as always Matty ^_^
Sandman's World II has no real due date yet, but I am done with voice acting, and animation should be starting soon. ^_^

[The NewGrounds Machine]

The funny thing is....

I was thinking about making a flash exactly like this. I was gonna call it "A Day In the Life of a Flash". But yours kicks ass! Way better than mine would have been.

GOOD THINGS
1. The movie had a very good plot. Its about newgrounds so what could be better!?!
2. Your animation was really good. The flash guy was cool.
3. The music was good. But kinda got old... Its a toss up on good or bad.
4. I like the little sytem you made up as a metaphor for Newgrounds. The whistle part was my favorite.
5. I like how you made the voting thing like a pinball thingy.

BAD THIINGS
1. Even though it had nice animation and a good concept. But some parts got kinda boring. Like while waiting for the pinball thingy to get to the Blam or Protect spot. Try to build supense like if you would have made "attacks" for different levels voting on the flash.

OVERAL
This was a very good flash. It should have gotten like daily firts place but its pretty cool getting fourth.

Ok, man, I love getting long and constructive reviews like this one so thank you for having taken the time.
When I made this movie, I was not expecting this little 'succes' (award, frontpage and 100k views) so I have been very pleased with it. I think the good points like the plot and a few original ideas (the flash guy in the ball, whistle level, blam/protect mecanism...) saved it, because when I watch it again now i find it good but too slow, which can easily lead to a boring movie (although it seems it was not the case of this flash). Hopefully I'm still improving and my flash skills are getting better.
I'm working on different projects right now but I work a lot for my studies and I don't have much time. I should come up with one or two nice submissions in a couple of month.
cya.
