HeliosStar's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Eva Punch]

I love it.

But it looks really traced :).

The animation has such brilliant knowledge of timing, arcs, and spacing that it leads me to believe it's not your effort alone.

I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but it's very likely you traced or referenced these scenes.

NoperDoperTrooper responds:

Nope. No tracing no referencing, nothing. If you don't believe me, fine, but know that I'm being sincere when I say that.

[Jesus vs. Godzilla]

I dug it.

But a lot of it was traced. I counted Bleach, Naruto, DBZ, And some other animes. I think you did some of the fbf yourself which was really nice, but referencing and tracing the work of others is kind of frowned upon by most animators.

[The Sicksons]

Lisa's face...

Made me laugh so hard haha.

It was a nice parody, I got a kick out of it.

[Break On Through]

More of a slide show.

You don't really animate as much as you skew pictures. I think you'd seriously benefit from reading the Animator's Survival Kit.

Also, while the grungy style was kind of nice, it clashed extremely with your simplistic and colorful style. I felt everything should have been more detailed and saturated.

Kudos for finishing something though.

Gerkinman responds:

I actually have a copy of that book here and some of the cycles in this cartoon were taken directly from it, but i agree, i need more fbf and less skewing.

[Drawing Tutorial: Female]

The anatomy...

Is quite off :x.

Other than that, it's good, but you may want to take somel ife-drawing or begin referencing photos of real females, because the anatomy here was kinda...well pretty wrong, her should span was waaay to big for a girl, and the face was kinda long.

skarl3tte responds:

yea i know, but that's my drawing style. I wasn't going for realistic. I could never pull that off.

[Chuck's New Tux!]

Amazing animation and style.

THe ending disturbed the hell out fo me though. I laughed at first but upon taking a closer look and watching him vomit up organs I quickly dampered my jollies and closed the window. Everything else was superb.

[Ng Voicemail #973]

Stamper.

I love you.

that made mah fucking day. especially when the guy starts whispering and gets the ":3" face at the end.

I almost died. then the sexings, how I laughed at the sexings.

[From Life to Death]

Not bad for two days.

Not a lot of animation, and you really coulda' have payed more attention to anatomy, but it was enjoyable.

I was a tad confused at some parts; like who died when there were only three people standing above the coffin, and where the daughter came from. Also the daughter and son colors looked the same when they were married. Oh, and you mispelt loneliness.

I actually only watched this flash because I recognized your name. lol

but you've gotten pretty good at storytellin', kudos man. let's see something with more animation though :].

ReklessCreati0n responds:

Working on that actually at the moment, Going to be a lot of animation in the next one.

I recognize your name from somewhere, and yes I know i mispelt loneliness... lol

the deaths go in this order... Grandfather, Father, and him, hopefully that tied up a few loose strings.

thanks for the review!

[Anime - Theatre]

This is the most traced or referenced movie....

I've never before seen a flash with so much tracing and referencing....you didn't draw very much yourself, only trace animated gifs or google pics....the lipsync was horrible, and a dead give-away.

I suggest learning to draw, animate, and then trying again.

2 because you finished something, you lost 8 because of the aforementioned tracing and referencing.

[- Move Your Feet -]

Holy shit.

Better than the original, much nicer animation, graphics, and you actually finished the song!

I'm awestruck Rtil, I was beaming the whole time I was watching this.
Not much else to say.

5/5

oh, grats on front page and top 50.
