Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Realistic Spacecraft Impact with an Asteroid Simulator]

Fersto sums it up pretty well I think. :) Without context there's little allure here, but when you do know the context... well it still feels pretty eventless. Even though you're headed right for the rock. Feels like having the original audio track in particular would add a whole new dimension to this, or any audio for that matter.

But I also wonder: when there's an original video that looks pretty much just like, I'm curious why you'd recreate the same thing exactly the same way? Seems like you'd want to enhance it somehow if you did; add your own spin to it. It really looks almost exactly the same.

Impressive replica but... not that captivating standalone.

yeah, i did saw this NASA video then thought i can recreate this. Then found a pic and did the animation took me about 40 minutes to make the replica, it's just meant to be a replica of the nasa video

[Gura VS Oreo]

Some solid culinary advice here, though takes a while till you get to it. :P

Cute work; great voicing; nicely done!

[MADNESS VS THING THING: DUEL]

You put a looot of thought into the backstory here! Never considered the potential connection between the Thing Thing series and 'The Thing' movie franchise, though if you by visuals they're really not that similar... are they? I forget the games. Gotta play again sometime.

This was masterful though. Both animation and stopmotion, and the sound effects and motions add so much, like with the chainsaw fight you can really feel the aggression! Feel a little sorry for the 'Thing' when it's all over... but then you get the end bit so maybe it's not over after all. :) Must say both contestants really were crazy agile being able to dodge that amount of shotgun shells too! Impressive fight.

Potential things to improve: transitions. When for example in the intro you have the 'stop motion' text... and then you move into regular animation, and THEN switch to stopmotion, it feels like the shift between animation and stopmotion would've been a better place for that transition text. I get the same impression with various bits of text, that the message comes too early; the animation it refers to comes a second or so later. Some lightning shifts in filming too, and a typo in Madenss Day towards the end - but maybe that bit's intentional.

Overall great stuff! This was fun to watch. Brutal, creative; with a little comedy too.

[Joe Rogan in South Park]

Well that was entertaining. XD

Just the regular video version Joe Rogan meets Random Person sketches are fun, but with animation you really can take them to the next level... endless potential with this kinda content! Good stuff.

[Big Hoss And His Smoker]

If only I was this happy about eating food. :D He's got moves! Fun stuff.

[Droos San Andreas]

Hmm if I only understood what was being said here... I think when most of the audience here only has English as their native language it'd boost your views and ratings a bit if you had subtitles. ;)

I'm playing GTA San Andreas right now, wonder if this has anything to do with that, even after a few loops I'm just not sure...

Ok lo voy mejorar

[Real World Internet Behavior : Foamy The Squirrel]

The state of being civilized is kinda on ice these days ain't it? Good rant, albeit a bit short...

[Tales of Zale - Flickering Lights]

So heartfealt; so wholesome... both visuals and soundtrack are on point, though I think the thing I like most with this series is the pace. How it's both so calm and so engaging. It's a captivating tale of adventure but at the same time it's refreshingly laid back compared to the real world...

Fascinating how you both escape the real world for a bit and tune into your emotions with this. It's so far off yet so perceptible. And the characters are lovely. Awesome work as always.

[Despair]

A Swedish catgirl allofa sudden, could it be? XD Ukrainian maybe? We have similar flagship colors after all, but that was unexpected, and fun, and seemed like it could've turned into something all the steamier but of course things never go the way you expect them to in the sexual lobster realm...

The shift and emotional showcase at the phone shot was surreal though. Spot on. We probably would do well to escape some of these digital obsessions and illusive commitments that make up our lives these days...

Great stuff. Entertainment factor heavy as always too, garden gnome shots and all, always at least a few of those quick but impeccable comedic details mixed in. Wonder if the main reason your work works so impressively well is mainly the timing and transitions, they're always so on point.

[RAHUL'S THANKSGIVING DISASTER]

It definitely did make you think this one. XD The Tryptophan huh, I'm not sure I get it but I suppose the theme at least is related to that local turkey pardoning tradition I don't get much either... hope them birds got some justice after all! Good albeit maybe a bit too ununderstandable fun.
