TheReviewTrickster's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dorito And Pringle: Cable]

The art and animation are very simple, but that doesn't always limit comedy. I do like the joke, especially the ending. The voice acting isn't very good, and the pacing needs work. Like, the guy answered the question at the start so fast it was disorienting, and the shot switching felt abrupt as well considering the dialogue pacing. Work on that, and keep making things. It seems like you can do some nice jokes.

MasonTheWeirdo responds:

thanks, i'll work on that!
Thanks For the advice

[Don't Spoil The Movie!]

Kelly is great in this one. Probably high off his old mind. I loved the story about going to see the Alien movie. The montage with them watching everything to do with the movie. The Rock's reactions thing was great. I'm really surprised that neither Skylar nor Kelly understand the concept of so-bad-it's-good movies. Then again, Skylar watches pretentious things (mostly, we've seen his Netflix list) and Kelly is just high. Kirsten does seem like the kind of person who'd understand though. During the montage Kelly probably should have been actually taking notes instead of just standing there with a notepad. Keep it up, the quality of these is great lately!

RocketAdrift responds:

Thanks so much! ^^

[Interface | Episode 02]

The style is great as always, in particular I liked the shots with the bus under the overpass and the sun shot. I think this, along with that little bit of description of meaninglessness in episode 5, has given me an idea of what this is actually about. Mischief is a representation of radical freedom. He isn't bound by physical things and is a shapeshifter. He can take the blue guy anywhere. However, the blue guy doesn't know what to do with the radical freedom, so Mischief chooses for him, taking away the freedom. We are shown a cross (which is a symbol of Montreal, I didn't know that until I read GoodL's review), which symbolizes religion. A way to give meaning to our lives. We are shown the masses as Mischief said he's done it to so many others. At least that's my interpretation/theory. I hope we get to see what you had in mind when making this. Also, where do you get the music for these?

u-m-a-m-i responds:

Thegamingtrickster that is a great interpretation, and Mischief representing radical freedom really resonates with me. When I was coming up with some of the stuff, my goal was to demonstrate individualism vs collectivism in a fractured, nonlinear "plot". I am always trying to make sure it isn't too on the nose, and that the weirdness comes first though.

I make all the music in Logic - I am planning on releasing them all in an album once the season is done (maybe around ep 12-14, currently I'm working on 8). The individual tracks are currently a patreon reward until the album comes out. However if you're interested in similar music, you can check out hexsystem.com which is where all my other music is, and it's free to download. Cheers, J

I like the animation style, and I love the humor in this too. It's so self-aware and the jokes and insane nonsensical scenarios just keep rolling out. The dialogue is great, with a mixture of absurdity and, like I said, self-awareness. It's not above putting in a couple of memes either. Personally, I found this quite funny and enjoyable.

missstic responds:

These kinds of animations take a great deal of effort, so seeing someone actually enjoying them is a bliss. Thank you soooo much.

[Interface | Episode 05]

The animation was very nice. I really like this style, and the idea is really interesting. The monologue was a bit hard to understand because of the voice. I have not seen the previous ones, though I will make sure to do so. The sound design and music are pretty cool too ,and the aesthetic is gold. I hope I won't be giving this an unfair rating because I need to see the other ones first to understand this.

u-m-a-m-i responds:

Thanks for taking the time to watch and the comments!

[Skull Lord]

Oh hai ChutneyGlaze. I saw the thumbnail for this and I was gonna watch it anyway, but then I saw a blue outline around the character and realized you made it. The animation was nice as usual, and the concept was quite fun and interesting. I like how we got to see what happened after the duck thing. The joke at the end was pretty nice, too. Keep doing what you are doing, haha. If a lot of people animated things, the world would be a better place.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Ha ha ha what a story mark!

[Why are we here ?!]

I like the artstyle, and the dad's response is pretty funny. The music went well with the movie too. Maybe you could have just had stuff in there that would lead the son to this specific question more clearly though, because this isn't really the question he'd be asking after thinking about those things.

binixx responds:

i would :D, i'm crazy i know!
thanks for the review!

[Skyrim stories. ep 1]

The animation was pretty good, but there wasn't really any humor. I also can't speak for how good a parody of Skyrim this is, though the story didn't seem very interesting, and the rewind was confusing since I guess it went to before the beginning but we don't know what happened afterwards, and maybe you could have just saved it for the next episode.

Dantu responds:

I think, only those, who have played Skyrim, will understand this cartoon. As for rewind - it shows time from when they are moving in the wooden cart, to the moment when they run out of the cave. Thanks for your opinion.

[Bread-R-Vention]

Oh, this was a funny one. The characters are at their best, and I like the joke at the beginning where they're just like "this isn't about the weed", because the bread obsession is clearly much more important. My favorite part was when Kelly was in the toilet, because of all the sounds and his confession and stuff. I also liked the part where Kelly put buttered bread in a book. Maybe Kirsten could have done the last line a bit stronger though, but that's really my only complaint.

RocketAdrift responds:

Thanks! There were so many sadder takes of Kelly on the toilet we had to cut them down XD
