Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Sketch Collab 2014]

The mesh of styles and ideas in these collective combos are always an inspiring watch, all good fun, with plenty of fights and motion, never a dull moment. ReklessCreati0n and Oh-Sama's were probable favorites, loved the intense detail in the first and the immense fluidity in the latter, though everything's awesome in its own way. Didn't realize this collab series had such a rich history btw, not a year missed since 2007! Nice work keeping the tradition alive! And nice work. :P

[Shattered Heaven Ep. 4]

Audio's definately an improvement in this one! Nice work on everything, plotline and graphics; it remains a good balance between dialog and battle, following both the characters and their fight. Looking forward to pt 5!

AdamTilford responds:

Thanks, I appreciate it!

[Game Grumps - Crazy GIrl]

lmao, she seems like such a calm and reasonable girl too... looks can be deieving! Was expecting just the one Game Grumps short, but I appreciate the trilogy, each segment equally entertaining and topically consistent. Nice work!

[Shot Caller Animation]

Getting some Crash Bandicoot vibes from that mask... could it be an inspiration? Though I guess Naughty Dog probably fetched their inspiration from actual masks, those items of ancient cultural heritage, etc. Groovy animation!

[Simple]

Simply awesome! That thing really looks alive! Wonder how many photos this took to make?

Pibolar responds:

Dude thanks! If I remember correctly it took somewhere between 700 and 800 frames.

[Christmas Night]

What a contrast between the animation and the music. Animation was awesome, really cool mesh of special effects (After Effects?) and regular animation. Music was eh... interesting. XD Definately a different kind of Christmas tune! Nice work.

CooliSushi responds:

Thank you! All of my effects were done in Flash cs5.5, I have no idea have to use after effects. I may work on more music videos coming next year.

[Detective Salanski]

Heh, though he didn't really do a thing, he solved the case! The one thing it feels you could really improve here is the voicing for the detective character, though I know it's supposed to be a certain way, the monotone-low-serious type of talk isn't the easiest to catch in this one, might have to do with the added reverb, might just be the tone of voice, but it's not as audible as it could be. How about trying more of a high-pitch filter instead to make it stand out, if you do keep the tone? Animation was great though, creative colors, keep it going!

[The Tragic Trilogy]

What an awesome idea making an Interactive movie theatre to contain those three shorts! And all three of them were great. The first was pretty fun, the second was actually prety tragic, the third... I didn't really get that much emotion from, even if the story was bizarrely creative. Love the idea, love the animation and everything, the short short in the tower and the Easter Egg that drops when you've watched all three... even if it linked to an animation off-site! Anyway, great work. Seeing this brings me back to the old days when movies could actually be interactive, there's way too little of it now, apart from the occasional collab credits or preloader play buttons. Keep it going!

Merol responds:

Thanks a lot! And movies can still be interactive, it is just more convenient to make them in video form most of the times.
