DYNAKYRIS's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cosmic-Clash-N.I.G.S]

The artwork and animation were mostly tight. The incomplete state of some frames could actually work to a stylistic advantage; say, whenever there's a REAL quick move, express it as a somewhat deconstructed sketchy form...? Maybe...?

A small blurb at the beginning would help to give a little context for all of us new to the NIGS universe and might even do away with the HERO labeling at the top of the segment, since the rival goes unidentified as such.

I wasn't really feeling the music for the situation. An ass-kicking sound effect performance would've been groovy.

It's always great to see One Blaze in ACTION!

Neochilds responds:

In terms of the music.. well the music inspired the animation... i.e Evangellion so unfortunately the music stays. But thanks dude for checking out the animation.

[The Social Noobwork]

Poor monitor...

The Social Noobwork is a surprisingly good animation that speaks to the stupidity of everyone's...EVERYONE'S favorite website (at the moment).

If the FB bubble ever collapses, this cartoon will stand as a nostalgic testament to why we hated it so.

[Prelude to the One]

Phat!

Smooth animation and camera moves! Nice depth tricks with the ladder and barrel, too. Plenty of funny moments. This was totally NOT the crap I was expecting! I do believe Xiao would be proud.

[FRED - Animated Series]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

YES, YES, YES, YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sorry I couldn't be more eloquent than that, but I'm sure you won't mind.)

[Fight flash]

Simple, but dope.

Even though it was very simple, I thought it was dope. I like when little blob-man was like, "ALL RIGHT". :D Another cool thing about it was that, unlike many simple 'fight' flashes I've seen, your characters had an actual form; they weren't just stick-line people, know what I mean? Good show!

Knight-mare responds:

thnks
its one of my first works, so I understand
I like that part too

blob-man? thats good! I even think about the name of my character thnks for that too

by the way theres another one coming so psick it up if you can

[The Magic Mushroom]

Poor bastard.

WOOOOOOOOW, THAT IS MESSED UP...!!! We'll just never know...

Great punchline, but improve the artwork of the forest and the ball's facial expressions. Needs more trees and more of a foresty appearance.

[Samus_Rave.swf]

Smooth moves.

It's a fair looper, but the scene is a bit too subdued for its music. By the sound, I'd expect a more active scene. What if Samus' arm cannon was like a glowstick (or had one sticking out of the barrel)? You could pull off some neat glow-echo effect with it.

Samus needs more friends to rave with.

Elite-Sniper responds:

First time I ever used sprites. =\

[Castlevania: Flying Cross]

Quite a coincidence.

My review comes in two parts; the part you want to hear and the part no one probably cares about. First, the lighter side:

It was a pretty good movie with a decent execution, and I 3'd it.

I feel, like a couple of others, that the weakest link was MJ's scene. I'm in agreement with Shadow-ice; the Boomerang was broken! It nailed the wrong target! Never mind that...his frappings went on for waaaaay too long. I think we spend more time with that ordeal than with any other scene in the movie. In fact, I think MJ's gas stinks up half of the movie's total running time!

And now for the part no one will probably care about. Bear with me.

I first saw this three years ago, and I remember it hitting pretty hard. But not for the good reasons...

Flying Cross bears a similarity to Merry Xmas, an animation from December 2002 which I have yet to finish. In it, Trevor Belmont tosses a Boomerang that interferes with other scenarios, including the Zero Wing opening. The beta of Merry Xmas had been presented at DYNAKYRIS (my site) at least five months before Flying Cross premiered on Newgrounds.

Unless the likeness is just some insane coincidence, it would seem here that you finished what I started and took all of the credit.

Was Flying Cross indeed inspired by my Merry Xmas beta?

Whatever the case, whenever (and if ever) I get around to finishing Merry Xmas (or whatever it'll be called by then), it'll just have to kick that much more ass.

Thanks for bearing.

[Animator vs. Animation II]

Hyeeh heh heh...

That must've been a pain to clean up...

My favorite part was when The Chosen One flipped the IM window. :]

[super wario kart ep.1]

It's a trap.

In this age of widespread broadband, anyone who ignored the File Information may be lead to believe that this gag is a huge movie.

What it really is, is an animation consisting of a simulated Loading screen followed by a play button to cut into a blink-and-you'll-miss-it scene of Wario tumbling across the screen.

Yeah, I fell for it, too.

superblinky responds:

you're the first thing you note
