Gooch's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Expectation vs Reality: Food]

I've been there before as far as food goes. The reality is nowhere near the expectation. It depicts the struggle that is cooking and eating at restaurants. As far as the graphics were, they weren't the best. However, I think the story being told relates to everyday scenarios we have issue with, so I did like that.

Randomation responds:

I'm glad you liked the video. Daniel and I were aiming to make two scenarios that were realistic to real life and one that was just for fun. I appreciate your review of the artwork as well. I will work on improving.

[The Flight (boat WIP)]

I think it's a start. I understand it is a work in progress, but I think you might have something here. It will need a little bit more substance, though. Obviously, getting some sound effects in there never hurts. However, I still feel it has potential once it gets rounded into form.

William-Turner responds:

Thanks, mate.

Yeah, progress on it has frozen because the Flash on the computer I'm using freezes every twenty minutes while this animation file is open. School-issued Macbook, so it's not the best and greatest for this sort of thing.

Yeah, I've been meaning to add sound effects, but again, it's a pain in the arse to even go back and look at one of the scenes- that, and sound might make my Flash lag up even more.

[:(]

You know, for only being an eleven second short. I did get a nice chuckle out of it. The music with the look on Godzilla's misunderstood face made for a funny moment.

[Awesome Episodes #34]

I Rolled Laughing.

I guess the music kind of enhances my hilarity towards this, but it wasn't the main reason I laughed so hard. I just love how the kid's facial expression never changes even after he pulls the trigger. It's too goddamn funny.

[HORSE JOKE]

Classic Joke. Never Gets Old.

Okay, so the animation wasn't the best, but the execution of it was well done. The classic horse joke that never gets old gave me a laugh with the way you animated it. Nice work.

CYCLOKAT responds:

thnx man

[Rush - The Trees]

Awesome Flash.

I think you executed this flash perfectly with the song. I think the commentary in the middle was a good idea, too. It is kind of hard to do a filler for a song with an instrumental break in the middle, but the commentary was a nice touch, especially since it breaks down the meaning of what the song is like. Also, I like the transition from the commentary to the slideshow and back to the flash. It brought in the best of both worlds there.

Overall, I thought it was well-executed, and it was a very appealing flash. Hopefully this makes the front page. I think it is worthy of that honor.

Arch-Angel responds:

That would be AWESOME!!

[Good ol farma]

Short, kind of unfunny.

I felt like a little more effort could have been put into this. Not so much for the artistry or style, just for a better, more thought-out concept to the flash. Although I do have to give you credit on the cow's spots. I wonder how many people will notice it's a map of the world. I give you some points for creativity there.

But overall, try and lengthen it out, and add-on to what the farmer does. You know, maybe add in what else farmers do on the farm, with a comedic twist to it. Regardless, I think it has a lot of room for improvement.

[Bear meets boy]

Executed Well.

The animation was pretty sweet. Your style for your characters was some of the best I've seen. And you did execute the title of your flash just right. That was a bear meeting a boy. The bear looked exactly how you made it in my opinion, what with it's grumpy facial expression and all. Yeah, it was short, which kind of disappointed me a little. However, maybe you could turn this into a mini-series or something. I'd like to see that. I believe it has potential.

Rooster responds:

Wow, thanks man.
I'm glad you liked it, I might turn it into a little series or something. I don't know.

[33 Ways for a Ninja to Dy]

It has potential.

Sure, the character designs weren't spectacular, the actual animation to me was pretty decent. Coupled with the fact that it was a different concept, I say that with a few improvements to character and background designs, this has some good potential to be a 3+ point-ranking flash.

Orange-Animation responds:

Thanks for the review! =D

[Johnny - The Stubbs]

Awesome

It's been a while since I've seen a claymation here on Newgrounds. I'm not disappointed with this one at all. It seems like you put a lot of time and effort in this trying to get all the movements down for the band. Just getting the fingers to move and the lips right to match with the words must've worn on your patience little bit, didn't it? Either way though, you made this look real good, and I'm thoroughly impressed with this. Nice work.
