retroarcademonkey's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Epic Trick Shots!]

R.I.P. Johnny, he died as he lived; A bro.

[Toons These Days: Ep 18]

What got me to keep watching was the different animation styles, I always found each and every one of them a joy to look at, it's a good show to just sit down and watch with the kids.

I first watched it when I was on vacation in America and I loved it instantly.

Oh, and the new addition to "Toons These Days" was pretty good, too I guess.

[an awkward situation.]

I came here, thinking "Just another dumb badly animated Newgrounds cartoon", until I finally decided to watch this thing.

I liked it. The dialogue was pretty well written with some bad mic quality to go with it. The pacing was good, and had that Gravity Falls look about it.

Throw it together with some pretty funny jokes that actually made me laugh at places, and you got an alright cartoon.

I honestly didn't expect this to be that good. An unexpected gem amongst all the complete garbage here on Newgrounds.

thank you! i'm glad you enjoyed it. the voices were recorded with ipod earbuds on a macbook with a bad audio input, so that's the reason for the poor quality.

[Sonic Ex Pals]

This is what I've always viewed sonic X as....A hentai.

[Lazy Writing 10]

Ha ha....Swastika.....

[GTA 5 Will Ruin Your Life]

I loved this animation. Each frame is really well drawn, making the animation so great to look at, the music is well chosen, the voice actors fit their respected roles, and the entire animation felt really nicely organized and put together.

It's so well written, it's so good!

My own experience with GTA V is pretty similar to this, only I didn't have nearly this much time on my hands, but hey, it's a cartoon so, no need for realism.

Not only was this amazingly executed, but it also exceeds quite well in the comedic department, too. And since this is a collab, I cannot wait to see the other 2 entries to this amazing idea for a collab.

CatFat and Ockeroid, it's your turn to impress me!

[The Girl on TV]

This was fuckin'......Wow. I honestly expected something wierder than that, but....Wow...

[White People and Indians]

Quite an enjoyable Louie C.K. animation.

The animation is quite heavily inspired by HISHE and Jazza's character design and animation tween techniques. The tweens looked incredibly awkward at times and just looked terrible, but the lip syncing was actually pretty good, but that's not saying much. But, I do love a good animation with audio taken from one of Louie C.K.'s stand-ups!

I say, just practice doing traditional animation and see where it gets you.

[Gaysby]

Though I may not have ever watched The Great Gatsby due to dis-interest in Dicaprio's works (especially with Titianic), even though I fuckin' loved him in Django, I just didn't have a good feeling with this one. Now after watching this "parody" I now have a good idea what the hell this is about. I'm pretty sure the movie went just like this, knowing Dicaprio.

[Rayman Legends]

This was unexpectedly good.
What I expected was nothing but beaten-to-death jokes, immature humor, and some cheap laughs.
What I got was something truly amazing.
Rayman 2 & 3 were both games i had cherished throughout my childhood, a few years later, we got Raving Rabbids, which i wasn't a big fan of. Ubisoft loved the Rabbids so much that they made many games based on them.....Many, many, sub-par party games that didn't do very well.
Finally, in 2011 we got a Rayman game. Rayman: Origins. I got excited, i played it. It was based on Rayman 1's gameplay style, and it was so damn good, I got some friends over and we had one hell of a time.
It was the best Rayman game in years! Finally, Ubisoft got their shit together and focused less on the Rabbids, and more on Rayman.
And now Rayman: Legends is almost here! (In England, mind you) And this animation got me so happy to see a video-game related cartoon on Newgrounds that ISN'T a parody! Hurray!

The music was spot-on! The animation was perfect! The artstyle and background art (by shadman) was fucking gorgeous! You guys absolutely nailed that trademark Ubisoft sense of humor perfectly. The characters were drawn gracefully and it was all very nicely done! (For a bunch of newgrounds animators that is)

Good work, and godspeed!
