Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tattooin - On the Airplane]

A modern take on the Wild Wild West... interesting mix! Animation's great as always, both detailed and fluent. Don't understand the song but... yeah I don't really understand what it's about at all this time. XD The animation doesn't have as dark or mysterious a theme as in the pirate song, and I'm not sure what to think about this in regard to what it's all about. Cash? Love overcoming all? A story as depicted in the animation? It was fun to watch but seems the pirate song will be hard to beat, that one just had something... majestic about it. Anyway great work! Good to see there's more of these being made!

[Cold Cuts-omers]

Even though I don't and never have worked that job I can definitely relate to some of this. XD You see these types of people sometimes... in certain places... being that way they are. Entertaining in animated form but oh so aggravating in real life. The intro and outro seemed suited to match something more than customer experiences, like a full story of sorts, but otherwise all's well done. Good fun.

[Planes Trains and Automobiles extended ending]

Well that went well. XD Not sure I've seen the original, but seems you put in enough of the original to give context to the new ending either way. Good stuff.

[Pico Parody X (2010)]

Seems like a lot of people are sitting on - and sending in - unfinished work this year. :) Bit short but good fun! Happy Pico Day!

ToonCastleTV responds:

Thanks, it's abridged so that's why :) Maybe one day I will get around to properly animating it. Thanks for your review!

[Pico V.S. Piconjo Sketch vers.]

Can't wait for the less sketchy version of this. :) Also 70 FPS... that seems insanely detailed! Maybe animators are working with higher rates now than they used to, but back in the day 24 was easily good enough - and with video 30 seems like standard. 70... sounds awesome but also like it could be way more work than it needs to be! Best ask advice from the pros, though, what do I really know. Good stuff.

Rovertarthead responds:

Well no that’s just me I love animation and want to go all out LOL and yeah that’s good advice to I’ll go do that. Thanks very much for your support to I can’t wait as well I’ll be doing my best!

[Expo-Wave - Part 1 - The future of gaming]

Lip sync's not always on sync, but apart from that: sounds intriguing! Nice voicing, music and all.

HeadbanGames responds:

Thanks, I will work on the lips sync some more!

*update*
I worked some more on the lip syncing.

[Pokemon Spread]

If only Spazkid was in charge of the official show! XD I'd predict great things... also nice work veiling things up so much this could pass as T rated (though that full scene would've been awesome). Good stuff.

[TD-Destructive Assertions]

Soo, hmm... I wonder how much of this is parody, if any. If guest lecturers were like this, or if this was their message in a blunter; more robotic form, or if this is how it should be, or if this is a lesson artists need to learn, not traditionally presented to them in such a matter-of-fact way... I can't quiet tell! The style and bluntness level seems to imply it's not to be taken seriously, but parts of the message... most of the message, actually, doesn't sound all that far off. As it's not told via the traditional reality-tied narrator I'm uncertain as to what to take of it...

Apart from that: really cool work on the brain. Gives the drawings a sense of depth - more so than usual. And of course great everything else, both imagery and script. Good stuff as always.

[Wallace and Gromit The Lost Episode LEAKED FOOTAGE]

Well this was way longer than expected! Pretty twisted too. With the face shifting and random moments right from the start you know something's about to go down but... can't say I really follow the comedy when it does. It seems to just portray Wallace in the worst possible way, without much redeeming story to go with it... I appreciate the effort that went into this, but those intended laughs became frowns, uncomfortable moments and confusion instead. I understand the value of Gallows humor, but didn't expect it this would class as that. Props on all the time spent on this, and it did entertain, but I feel like it could use a clearer direction and relatable puns if it really intends to be comedy. Feels pretty experimental.

DementedToons responds:

Thanks for the comment. Appreciate it :D

[comfortable 2- escape to Africa]

It seems to go in style with the recent comfortable animation. :) The atmosphere's the same... calm and inviting, entertaining and creative. It's good fun, varied and ambient, and pleasant to watch! Really enjoying this kind of stuff.
