MonkeyforaHead's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Strategy Guide Ep. 3]

DUUUDE!!

I was wondering when you'd get around to this game! Bubble Bobble has GOT to be my favourite classic arcade-style game of all time! I totally agree about the MF-ing impossible levels, but with a lot of practice they aren't so hard. One side note, though: I'm a GTA fan, *AND* I like the cute dinosaurs. So that craps on your theory. ;p

Wicked episode overall, very nice portrayals of the game's graphics, and hilarious spoofing of the various features. "Hey there little fella, wanna Milkbone?" Next time you should do Excitebike -- I'm curious to see how "MF-ing impossible" Guido will find the later levels.

Needle responds:

Well, it's not really a theory - I enjoy Bubble Bobble and GTA too :) But it seemed like the most appropriate game to use in order to get the joke across. Damned puke effect took forever to do o_O

Excitebike might be a tough game to do - it doesn't have a lot of content. It's basically just 5 or 6 levels, if I remember correctly. I'll definitely look into it though.

["From my Room"]

What can I say?

Whenever I write a review, I tend to ramble... but there's really not much I can think of to say about this one. To sum up my opinion, best "serious" Flash movie. Ever.

[The Real Legend]

PLAY THE GODDAMN SONG, LINK!!!

This is totally classic! Finally, a Zelda spoof that's up there with Ganon's Return. :) The graphics, the jokes, EVERYTHING is freaking hilarious!

Two suggestions though: One, the movie moves needlessly slow at various points... I think you could've cut quite a few frames here and there. Two, this movie is so long that it REALLY needs a scene select menu... see if you can add that if and when you change the voices.

[Sonic's Quest For Power]

Definitely underrated.

All I can say right now is... HOLY SH*T!!! This is a VERY good movie -- I have seen better special effects, but the action sequences are so frantic and powerful that it doesn't really matter! The plot is surprisingly good too. I have only one bit of advice: Work on the script. The characters constantly use block capitals and dozens of exclamation marks in unnecessary situations.

Great job, and can't wait to see part 2. :)

LgdVegetto responds:

heh yeh ok. I waz busting my brains trying to figure out a proper script, cause It's difficult to come up with storylines for Sonic movies these days...

[Kerri's Big Invention]

Definitely a masterpiece, but...

I have no gripe with anything in this movie. It's perfect. :) The only problem is, it just doesn't have the same kind of "classic" feel as your One Ring spoof, or the one about Ganondorf's Return. It's still a hilarious, very well-done movie initself. Mini-Mordor's easter egg is hilarious too.

Great work, and keep 'em coming!

Funny movie + Moral = Funnier movie

I really don't know where to start on this one... very expertly done, and totally hilarious. I agree that it might be a bit early for all those 9/11 spoofs, but at least it isn't poking fun at the people who died as a result of it. Plus, it's an amusing "what if?" theory. For example, did you know that during the original broadcast of the 9/11 disaster, CNN said that sources suspected the airplanes may have been controlled by remote? It's true.

["Waterman" Ep. II Part I]

Pretty good...

On its own, this more than fares as a decent Flash episode. In fact, it's got much better animation, sound, etc. than episode 1... but it's just not as funny. I can only hope there's a really twisted conclusion.

[Shadow Govt. Puppet Show]

So THIS is why Arfenhouse 3 hasn't been made...

To sum it up in a word, you guys are fan-friggin'-tastic. Your work is without a doubt the most insane, ridiculous garbage that ever saw the light of day -- and that's what makes it so great. Bonus points for all the hidden scenes, especially the one poking fun at lousy stickdeaths. XD For the love of God, GIVE US ARFENHOUSE 3 ALREADY!!!

[MCHammer Dancin']

Definitely an Underdog.

I really think this deserves better ratings than it's getting. It may not be the longest or prettiest of all the animations here, but it really is a very good job of frame-by-frame dancing. All I can recommend is: practice, practice, practice! Nice job. :)
