Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Sergio Show Episode #275]

Good to see this show's still going. :) The Franky hug looked kinda strange, drawn from the front with the tail to the side but... overall this was fun, unexpected speech towards the end there.

Fun stuff.

[Valentines short]

Thank you! ^^

[1st Car Flash Animation]

Not bad for a first one! Can see a lot of potential action work with this, car chases and all, the wheels maybe don't spin enough and street lines pass enough to catch the speed, but the motion's alright; the chase does come across! Animated sirens a nice detail too.

[Funny Prank XD]

A prank that really only works in the Madness realm. XD

Good one. The selfie style's a creative touch too, not sure I've ever seen that used with madness before.

oh wow i didnt expect anyone popular to see this thanks

[Artifacts]

Getting that sudden ending after reading the 'Unknown runtime' bit in the description somehow makes this all the more entertaining. XD

This was great, and went way deeper than I'd expected it too! Getting nigh existential in regard to what forms the creative landscape as we know it; what an important foundation for leaving a legacy the tools we have for making things really provide. New tools though... will we ever have a need for them when we can still use Flash? When there's Ruffle too?

This was such an awesome showcase, and testament to it's potential. With visuals way beyond the artifacts you'd traditionally relate to a Flash animation - but plenty of those nostalgic ones to at the most suitable point. Appreciate the narration!

I learned some things too, like line boiling, it's a technique I've seen used but never knew the process or name of! Took me way to long just to find the onion skin feature, and later on I at some time assumed you traced frames using that to get that line boiling effect. It never looked right though. This is so much easier.

Awesome work; awesome homage! #FlashForever

Emrox responds:

iirc the "boiling" term came from someone at AKA Cartoon [update: this is way false], where they actually would manually redraw every line three times with a leaky pen (maybe the leaky pen was apocryphal?) So people on the internet would call it a bunch of different things that I can't remember rn, stuff like "wobbling" or "squiggling" or whatever.

You know what's funny is people on internet forums used to just make up words for stuff like that, and then other people would go around using those words that the one guy made up like they were official canonized animation terms they read in a disney book or something. I remember a kid (who I later befriended) criticizing me for using too much "snap" animation - another term for "smears" coined by a guy named "ThorClodOfBlunders." I don't know if it makes sense that I think that that's a funny story, but it has something to do with dumb kids all pretending they know what they're talking about to eachother.

Anyway, thank you for enjoying this thing! I enjoyed making it!

[Satina Season 1 Sneak Peek - Meet the Horsemen!]

Seems somewhat possible they might not just mind their own business now. XD

Awesome trailer. The background detail levels... truly impressive. Looking forward to this.

[*TRAILER* Sublo and Tangy Mustard - Nightclub]

Classic Sublo and Tangy Mustard formula in a new setting it seems... Can't wait for this. :) Aaand it's here already apparently so it seems I won't need to either! On my way...

-cd-

[NECRO-NANCY 64: Spooky House trailer]

This looks fun. :) Suitably spooky, and reminiscent of the old Mario games for N64... or any other N64 games I suppose, though the atmosphere feels right at home in those games too, with Boo, with Luigi's Mansion and all... they've always had a similar vibe as well.

Looking forward to this! Looks promising. Appreciate there's no jumpscares or screamers, just good atmosphere. Something I'd like to see/play/however which way you partake in the real thing later...

[Grenade Test]

Not much script here but plenty of expression. :) The animation's great. Lively; very smooth.

-cd-

[All Your Michael Jacksons Are Belong To Us]

Ahh it's Michael's voice! For a moment didn't recognize it, was waiting for some imagery or other edits with the words related to him... this ain't bad but feels like you could've done more editing. With the video too. It's just the classic reel. Doesn't match the thumbnail.

-cd-

HenriDeadMort responds:

Sadly I've got no video editing skills so a thumbnail is the best I could do
