MonkeyforaHead's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zelda: Tales of Legend]

Well done, and above all, ORIGINAL.

I can't tell you how glad I am to see a sprite-based movie that really stirs up an original plot, and doesn't have mounds of crappy effects, and spelling and grammatical errors to wade through. You obviously have a very good grip on Flash. I'm actually awaiting part 2 now, not something that most sprite Flashes do for me. Really, the only gripe I have is that even the really short text boxes (i.e. "It will be done.") display for a pretty long time. You might want to shorten them in future.

Definitely thumbs up. :)

[Only Superhuman]

A non-tablet user is you!

Just goes to show what can be done with a mouse. Frickin' hysterical, A.K. Long live cartoons without cumbersome dialogue!

TmsT responds:

Damn straight! Keep it simple! Simple tools, simple dialogue... simply fun!

[the world as we know it]

Gotta love the artistic entries.

Has anyone stopped to think that this might actually be saying something about Bush, or just the way the U.S. seems to handle democracy in general? I don't personally know if synj is pro- or anti-Bush, but what I really love about this piece is how it's one of those artistic things open to many levels of interpretation, and is simultaneously done with cute cartoon drawings. This is the kind of stuff I wish I could do. Nicely done.

[part 2: synj vs horrid]

Love it, love it, love it.

My only real suggestion is that you should maybe plug Alien Hominid in the movie description. Just a little bit. For those brainless portal lurkers who either haven't heard of it, or have heard of it and don't care. ;p Anyway, hope the cut-scenes in that are as good as this was!

[Chocolate Niblet Beans]

Quality instead of quantity.

Seriously, you're one of the best fanimutationalists ever. Shumway is unforgettable, and even the dancing radio at the beginning of this one has me mesmorized. If you've got the time, check out my fanimutation, Waka Laka Laka, I'd love to hear what you think. (I'm currently working on a significantly more insane and less crappy animation.) Pity Neil isn't doing this stuff anymore. Oh well, maybe one day.

Oh, and all salute International Talk Like a Pirate day, yarr. Cheers, matey!

[(2004) Glass of water]

Best NG claymation yet.

I really don't know where you got the inspiration for this, but whatever it was, can I have some? ;p Seriously though, brilliant work. The IQ level of Clay World's inhabitants never ceases to amaze me (though there always seems to be the one character who actually has some sort of grip on reality). XD

[The Sandwich Shop Ninja]

Worth a chuckle.

Very well animated and whatnot, but the slow intro was just a bit too slow. So it leads up to an action-packed sequence, so what? Granted, it's quite an original idea, and well executed (the brief Matrix spoof towards the end I found funniest), but I think this is highly overrated. Still, you show great potential -- keep at it.

[Magical Trevor]

Not bad, not bad at all.

Better than the Badgers dance, I'd say, but still not quite as good as Kenya. ;p

And, to all the people who are complaining about this getting second place... you're idiots. This only got second place because it's JUST been submitted here and has got a consistent stream of excellent votes. By next week it'll probably by in 20th place, just you wait. Besides, this stuff is classic -- maybe not the most marvelous animation out there, but these short looping animations (by Weebl, anyway) are all the rage.

[Pokémon: Unseen Episode]

Dude, that just wasn't right.

Decent animation and use of sound effects, I'll give you that. Probably something Pokémon haters will enjoy on average. But I ain't a Pokémon hater. (I'll admit they are running out of ideas for decent games, but I still like it in general.) No 5 for you, buddy.

[Mega Man & Pompous Robots]

Best Megaman Flash yet.

I don't normally write many reviews, but in your case I had to make an exception. Bloody FANTASTIC piece of work. Drawings and animation were magnificent, and I was ROFL at Astro Man's appearance. XD Voices done surprisingly well too. Keep it up, you're on par with Andrew Dickman!
