btn29's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Batman : The Droppings]

Good work, Alfred.

[The Noob Adventures Episode 9]

LOL @ Fart "HOLY DOG NIPPLES!" Also it would be great if you could actually control pigs like that instead of them just kinda wandering around.

[TOME Episode 04]

Can you even do ANY wrong anymore? Seriously this series just keeps getting better. From your art upgrade in the last one to making everyone even MORE fluid and natural sounding then they already were (in terms of script, I know that most of the voices are courtesy of the FABULOUS V.A.'s that you have working with you). Also I really enjoy all the little references you stick in there for people who watched TTA (like the mini-Kagemamoru idol-monster). Keep it up. PLEASE keep it up.

[Hot Problems]

You would have gotten a 5 but you HAD to stick the vote 5 thing in there. As a rule of thumb I don't give 5's to people who put vote 5 in their vids. Sorry brah.

thekiwi responds:

Yeah it was a shitty gag I put in the video, but still thanks for the 4 stars i appreciate it.

[The Missing Stapler]

That was clever and not a joke that I have seen before. Kudos.

[The Broken Machine]

It's a solid story and well told. But what really got you that last star was using the Samurai Jack rave music. You sir, rock.

savage011 responds:

haha samurai jack is my childhood, thanks bro

[TOME Episode 03]

I love this. I love the new artwork, I love the way the plot is new with a touch of the old, and I L-O-V-E the way you've taken the characters from TTA and re-vamped them into something so much more than what they were, while still making your old followers have fangasms. Just keep it up. This is already my favorite series on NG, and I hope it keeps up for some time.

[TOME Episode 02]

Perfect, as usual.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way you're taking all the characters, locations, and plots from TTA and reworking them into something that feels new and nostalgic at the same time. Keep it up, Kirb. Keep it up.

[TOME Episode 01]

You brought it back.

TTA was my favorite series on Newgrounds, and to see those characters brought back to life like this nearly made me cry tears of joy. Keep it up Kirb and co. Keep it up.

[Lunarose 1-3]

Kudos where kudos are due.

This series is among the truly original on Newgrounds, and you deserve recognition for this. Many of the greatest series, such as XIN, TTA, Paladin, and many others besides, were purely original works, and all have entertained, and in the best cases, touched the hearts and/or sparked the imaginations of many viewers. This looks to become one of these series.
Moving on to the actual review:
Aesthetics: 10/10. You have your own unique world and have successfully portrayed both it and your characters. (I don't use Graphics/Art, as drawing ability does NOT affect the quality of the story being told, except in extreme cases.)
Plot: 9/10. There is definitely an underlying story, and the jokes and shenanigans provide excellent comic relief in appropriate doses. However, (as you yourself have stated in the first line of your description(s)), the story is occasionally difficult to follow. If one pays attention, (and is willing to roll with it until the end of each episode), then this should not be a problem, but, as I'm sure we both know, many viewers just don't have the kind of patience/savvy necessary to truly appreciate something like this (although any true otaku will applaud the way you have masterfully (albeit blatantly) used anime/video game references in your work.
Voice Acting: 7/10. The voices are well done and express emotion fairly well (which is more than a fair few can say), but can occasionally be difficult to understand. This is not an issue, as there are subtitles, but if there were not, many parts would be nearly unintelligible (whether due to the low volume of the voices, or the slightly blurry recordings of them).
Animation: 9/10. It is clear what the characters are doing, and that's really all that matters for ratings up to 7 or 8/10. The fact that this is all (as far as I can tell) frame-by-frame, knocks it up by one more point, to 9/10 (not to say that tweened animation cannot get a 10/10, just look at Xombie). The only thing that kept you from earning a perfect score on this, was that some motions appeared slightly uneven or choppy (not that badly, but still noticeable). All-in-all, the animation is well done and still gets an A.
Sound: 7/10. Getting beyond the issues present with the voice acting, the balance of the Music, Sound Effects, and Voices is way off (what this means is that one class of sounds tends to be far louder/softer than others). The voices are soft, and the music tends to be loud, while the sound effects tend to be in the middle (which is where they should be).
Originality: 10/10. This is where your movies SHINE. (Thus the whole blurb at the beginning of this wall of text). You have created a world that is entirely your own, with characters that are clearly unique. And you did it WELL. Nothing more needs to be said. Just well done.
Overall: 10/10. As I said, well done. Continue to put the work and passion into your stories, and it WILL continue to shine through.
