Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Avengers: age of Ultron P]

lol, the Avengers need to work a bit more on that team work it seems! Bit abrutply cut in audio clips from the movie, but the animation's great. Fun stuff!

Wariatadi responds:

Thanks man :)

[Microwaved]

My dreams, man, my dreams! :O Surfing through a landscape made out of only delicious edibles, being able to eat as much as you possibly want without feeling full, just gluttonously gliding on a lake of frozen Grapefruit juice... is never going to be the same again! But anyway, this was masterfully made, a gritty trip through a world of fuel and fat and wannabe willpower. I was starting to ponder what potential metaphors were stored in that microwave meal when... he opens it up and all that shizznit falls out of there! Suddenly it seems like it's more about the random factor than a message, though the artist statement does tell it's not so! Might've been more effectual a statement if he just opened the microwave and ate that bun, and then: The End. Well, it was good, entertaining, though-provoking and strange, and I do agree, we are what we eat. Nice work.

LightningLion responds:

Thanks, cd.
What I was trying to get at with the ending was a more literal pun of our "microwave culture" creating and spewing out all of this post-waste. I still think your proposed ending would have kept to the 'you are what you eat' and health aspects better; I was trying to find a balance between only focusing on those aspects, and being more inclusive of other related aspects of our culture.

[Expectations: A Pikachu Tale]

That ending... I really wasn't expecting that at all! I did figure out the ditto part as soon as he wiped his face off, but with all that other action-packed craze featuring the one and only... that really was a twist! Masterfully animated and voiced, loved the battles in particular, the bizarre slaughter and such eh... might've been even better without! Then again, the abstraction seems to make it less of a parody, and more of an artwork. Not bad.

RetroSleep responds:

I too had my second thought's about the violence, but we kept it in during the fight scene to try and convey the thought that something wasn't right with Pikachu.

Thanks for the review as always cd. Your kind words warm our stony hearts.

[Carpet Harmonica: Shovel]

The voicing's great, but the story, lmao, what a contrasting clarity in story-telling and lack of clarity in the actual story! Animation's pretty basic, but good enough for helping you visualize the imagery. Nice work!

Lightring responds:

Ha ha, thanks! I really had no direction with this, but I also didn't want to just wait around and do nothing! How you described the animation is all I wanted out of it!

[Plungerdog - Episode 4: L]

What a trip! :D Crazy but fun.

Jae responds:

Thanks for the review!

[Pokemon Golder]

lmao, good times, good times! Though the story doth continue even after the first Normal encounter... right? :P Would be awesome did this keep going all the way to the League! Potential for supremely entertaining trilogy of animations, maybe? This was great!

mattyburrito responds:

haha if enough people like it-- I do have an idea or two for another episode :)

[VS3 - Save the Titties]

lmao, do appreciate the change of scenery in this one! I still feel like I can't really get into the (leisurely, as you say) overall pace, but it's easier when it doesn't all take place in the same space, when things happen that make you want to hear what the different characters have to say. Got a bigger laugh from this than the previous episodes, so hopefully it'll keep going in this direction! ;) Nice work!

JellowStudios responds:

Ha! That damn pacing... Episode 4 does pick up the pace more (and changes scenery too!) but, again, thank you for the always appreciated feedback. We really do try incorporate the good suggestions.
