Auz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Donkey Kong 65]

Not sure what to think of this

I´m really not sure what to think about this. It seemed pretty good, but if you take a closer look: The graphics are not that great (most likely done on purpose), the voices weren´t that good either and the jokes... well they were so stupid that it started to become funny in the end. But I think you should´ve kept a few jokes out, it seemed to me as if you added every single joke in it you could think off.

To improve this movie, you could try to find some better voices for your characters. And remove a few jokes, like the crazy monkey time (totally didn´t made any sense) and the ones with Cranky. Doesn´t matter if the movie will become shorter then. It´s currently very long anyway.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. Though it wasn´t that good, it was still enjoyable to watch somehow. It kinda reminds me of Ducktalez 3, dunno if that´s where you got the idea from. Anyway, keep up the good work and congrats on your 100th submission.

[One More Final Battle]

Great

Hehe, you´re flashes always end up in some huge explosion where everyone dies, lol. I personally think Black Mages 5 was better. It had better music and backgrounds in my opinion. Still, this was very entertaining to watch. Liked all the special effects and graphics and fast paced action. What I also like is that there is so much going on. The big cats at the background for example and the moogle, you really have to watch it 2 or 3 times to see everything.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. There isn´t much that can improve on this, can´t really think of anything. You could try to make the menu a little bit better, by adding scene-selection, quality buttons and stuff like that, but that´s all. I hope to see some more stuff from you soon, keep up the excellent work.

[Super Mario bros Z ep 4 (old series)]

Great episode once again

Great episode once again. You probably can´t make any better sprite movies then this. The action is really amazing. I really liked the part with the Koopa Brothers, the first introduction was really funny. Also very nice music and sound effects.

The story you´ve made up so far is also very good. Only the talking about what happened before was a little boring in my opinion. I suppose it´s necessary, but I wouldn´t mind if you left it out or made it a little shorter. Luckily there was another good fight scene in the end. This one was especially nice since it was four against four, it all went pretty fast and it was hard to see what exactly was happening sometimes.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. Another great episode like I said. Really loved the series so far, hopefully you´ll make many more great episodes. Can´t wait to see the next one, keep up the excellent work.

[Raiders of the Trash]

Another nice one

Another very nice movie you made here. It was very enjoyable to watch. Really had awesome graphics. The animation could improve a little bit at some points, but it looked very nice overall.

But I think you choose weird songs for your flashes. It´s not that I disliked the music, but it´s a bit too serious and dramatic for a flash like this in my opinion. Sometimes it sounded like something horrible was happening, while it was actually a pretty funny scene. Sometimes it suited the scene and sometimes it didn´t, so maybe it´s better if you use more songs in one movie.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. It was very enjoyable to watch like I said. The movie could use some more interactivity, like a scene selection, as well by the way. The movie is pretty long, so I´m sure you could seperate it into a few scenes. Anyway, keep up the excellent work and hopefully we see some more from you soon.

[X/ Battle Alpha]

A bit random, but very enjoyable to watch

Well the movie itself didn´t made much sense to me. Famous cartoon- and videogame-characters just came out of nowhere without any reason. The movie also went from location to location... it was all very random.

But still it was enjoyable to watch. The graphics were very good. Everything was well drawn. The music was also okay, I´m not really a fan of Japanese music (or whatever it was), but it suited the movie I guess. Could add some sounds at some places, but isn´t really necessary. One bad thing about this was that the ending was pretty abrupt. The song was clearly not finished yet and it just ended. Would´ve been better if you made it a bit longer in my opinion.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. A bit random, but very enjoyable to watch. I also think it was a bit weird that it said "to be continued" in the end. You could make another one, but you can´t really make a second episode or anything, since it doesn´t really have a storyline. Oh well whatever... anyway, keep up the good work.

[Zelda Short: King Dodongo]

Funny

This was a good and funny Zelda movie. Liked the joke in the end. The movie had some very good graphics (well drawn). I especially think King Dodongo looked good. The only thing that looked bad was the lava, but that´s okay.

There was only one thing that really annoyed me. The sounds were very bad, very low quality and some noices were even hurting my ears. The backgroundmusic also didn´t made much sense to me. Would´ve been better if you just used the normal bossbattle theme from the Zelda game in my opinion.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. It really is a shame that this movie has such a bad sound quality. This made me vote a lot lower, sorry. I´m sure there are ways to increase that, or just add some different sounds. Anyway, it was still a good movie, keep up the good work.

[My Angel]

A little bit boring

It was deffinatly not bad, but I think it was a little bit boring. Showing a few pictures to tell what happened before was a nice idea, but it took a little bit too long in my opinion and they already told the entire story. The pictures looked very good, but it would be better if you just showed a few (which show how the girl gets kidnapped etc.) and started the movie when he goes to the black mountain.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. Well you really have plenty of drawing talent and you can animate as well, so perhaps next time you should make it more of a movie instead of a slideshow. And also, it was a little bit weird that the replay button was hidden behind the "The End", why don´t you just add a button below the text? I don´t think many people can find it now.

[Lord of the Clocks pt. 1b]

Awesome once again

I thought you forgot about this series or didn´t felt like continueing it. It´s been a year since the last Lord of the Clocks came out. I really do hope the next episode will be out much sooner.

Anyway, about the movie. Well it was awesome once again. Great graphics, good sounds and music. Especially liked the voiceactors. They really had good voices which suited the characters well. I can´t really think of anything that can improve in this movie. Perhaps the episodes could be a little bit longer, cause I don´t think you can do the whole "Fellowship of the Ring" in five episodes now.

Overall 10 out of 10. 5 out of 5. Can´t wait until the next part comes out. Keep up the awesome work.

[I Miss You (Music Video)]

Seen this before

Yes I remember watching this a long time ago. I don´t really get why you would want to delete a flash with a very good score like this one. Oh well, you must´ve had some good reason. Anyway, this was a pretty good movie in my opinion, the story was very nice. I did not liked the song much though. But I guess you can´t just add some other song, since you´d have to change the entire movie then.

Anyway, sometimes the graphics were great in this, and sometimes they looked quite bad. The effects you added and the movement of the characters look very good, but the drawings could use a little improvement at some points. I´m talking about the characters then, cause all other stuff was nicely drawn. But overall the graphics were still very good.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. Well this flash was nice to watch in my opinion. You could only improve a little bit on drawing characters, but that´s probably the only thing. The rest was all excellent. Keep up the great work and I hope to see some more from you.

[Link-et?!]

Short, but I liked it

A little short, but that´s okay. It´s a pretty funny movie. There isn´t much that can improve here actually. The graphics are very good. Good drawings and good animation. Only the backgrounds could improve a little bit maybe. The trees and the house didn´t looked that good. I´m not sure if you did that on purpose though. And I think Ganon could look a bit more evil. The sounds were nice (I liked the squeeze sound=p ) and you got some good voices for link, navi and ganondorf. They suited those characters well.

As for other stuff, well... the menu looked a bit empty with only a play button. But on the other hand, it´s a bit pointless to add scene-selections, volume buttons and stuff like that in this. You could however add a quality changer button thingie there. And you could make it look a little bit better.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. Well it was short like I said, but I liked it a lot. I really hope you could make a few more of these short and funny Zelda flashes. Congrats with your award and keep up the excellent work.

LilDwarf responds:

:D thanks. I'll put a quality changer for my next one and make the preloader better. Thanks for the comment.
