[Howto make great comments]

Good

Really good job. Not your best work, but more than decent.

The animation was smooth and pleasing, backgrounds were nice and tidy, sound quality was ace, and the humor and plot had its ups and downs. The only complains The only issue I have with the animation is the lip synching. I know its hard but it adds a lot more to the cartoon to synch every single word. I know it's a short movie and I understand you just made this for fun, nothing serious.

You could also have built on the other commenting annoyances, such as "Better than Justin Beiber!" , "Fake and Gay", Chuck Norris jokes, "Thumbs up if _____", etc and so on. Like I said, swell animation over all.

also pretty firm applearm you got there, why dontcha call me sometime ;D

LazyMuffin responds:

THANKS.
I guess I sort of didn't notice the lip syncing, cause usually I don't get comments on that.

Nice Job Sexy

Your cartoons get better every time I watch them. The animation is extremely smooth, as long as the lines. It's what I love about your animation. You keep proportion, smooth, thin lines, shade, and it looks great.

The song was hilarious to animate, I'm glad you did. The only thing that looked slightly rough was the rainbows behind the Awesome Face guys. Other than that my other complaint was usage of memes. It takes away from the comedy a tiny bit. Not enough (by any means) to make it bad, it is just an easy way to get a laugh. I know you don't need to because your stuff is always funny.

Just try to avoid them. Like I said, no flaws.

thanks!

[Leo & Satan III]

Awesome

The artwork is seriously beautiful. Especially the backgrounds, great choice to do them in Photoshop man. They were smooth and looked professional, very much worth it to switch from the ones you had previously in flash.

I also noticed you redid some of the theme song. Notably, the backgrounds and the statues arm, which was very interesting, looked great.

The animation was seriously astounding. You completely nailed every single angle and movement you needed to. The scenes that stood out for me was the scene where Satan ran out to grab the trash, when he busted through the wall, and when Leo's legs were flailing in the air. Like I said, you know how to get every scene to look fucking perfect. Your animation has improved significantly.

The audio was magnificent. Hans part was hysterical as Mrs. Bovakov, and you and Sean did an astounding job with Leo and Satan. You could feel the emotion when you listened to it. The sadness in Satans voice, the fear in Leo's. While I'm on the subject of audio, I should bring up that Leo and Satan has the best sound track I think on any Newgrounds/Internet series. I'm not just saying that. The theme song is really epic (Props to Harry and Colm) and the "Lil' Buddy" music was heartbreaking. I loved the faint "Satans Playtime" playing.

The writing was clearly brilliant, and I personally love the choice you made to make this scary and sad, along with your usual funny. As Walt Disney said; "For every laugh, there should be a tear." You did just that, my friend.

In my reviews, I always leave a section for criticism. In all honesty, I can't look at this and see anything I could or would ever change.

I have heard and seen this movie 100,000 different times, different versions of it. I can recite the entire movie at this point, but I still feel the "magic" you've put into this. It is something every flash animator should have, and unfortunately few do. This is going to be a classic on Newgrounds. Leo and Satan has had one of the best series on Newgrounds. Also, one of the most memorable.

Bravo Chris, Bravo. My penis is officially erect.

The Best Movie Ever Made Ever

By far this is the best movie ever made.

The character design is brilliant. No ears or nose, and not even eyeballs. Just little green circles. The shading was phenomenal, because you were original. Most people think, "Hey, I'm going to make shadows that make sense!" You were original, which I deeply admire. You completely schooled those people who used "human anatomy" and "light sources".

My favorite part, by far, was the voice acting. They made the story that much more interesting. For a second I thought it was George Clooney talking. I thought "How did itsChrisLife get George Clooney?" Then I realized it was your friends. Seriously, bravo. Tell them nice job. Best voice acting not only on Newgrounds, but the internet. Perhaps in the history of EVER.

The story line was complex and amazing. I sat down and thought I would watch a flash animation. This was something more. It was like watching every amazing movie I've ever seen at once. It was an orgasm to the eyes.

This is a pivotal point not only for Newgrounds, but for mankind.
Bravo, itsChrisLife. Bravo.

at least u didnt give me a '0'... thx i guess...

[my son ate the neighbours]

Brilliantly Brilliant

I am seriously sorry Luke, I thought I left a review when this first came out. I checked through and it said I didn't. I'm super confused.

ANYWAYS NOW ON TO THE REIVEW.

As far as the art goes, I love the line style. By that I mean, you didn't stick with black instead you used a shade of gray. It gives a completely different and unique atmosphere to the cartoon. I honestly love it and may steal that from you at some point.

The animation was fluid for the most part, I really do love your style of animation. Like I said at some points I wish there was a little more animation, like arm or head movements. But you did this in a really short amount of time so I completely understand.

The choice of audio was also really good. It really makes me enjoy it more when you use the right amount of creepy music, and you did just that with the way you intertwined scenes with the audio track. By far my favorite part though is the dialogue between the man and wife, I honestly lol every time.

My only complaint is some scenes, like I said, I wish would have been more interesting and crazy. For example, with the scene when the demon is running through the fields, all you can see is stars disappearing. Maybe have a shot of him jump up in front of the moon? Show his eyes? Anything like that. Also when the wife is talking, the only animation is lip synch and her arm pulling back the curtain.

Are there some flaws? Of course, there aren't any flash animations without flaws. I gave it a 10 because I think it honestly deserves one. I honestly adore it because you really made it feel like a classic horror film. Some references not everyone picked up on, but I was loving. The gore scenes were just the right amount of brutal. I don't think I've ever squired before whilst watching a flash animation, so bravo on that.

Also, for those of you who close out when the credits role, wait until the very end. I seriously jumped when I saw it even though I knew it was coming.

By far your best cartoon man, keep up the good work.

ClockworkPixel responds:

thanks zach for this amazing review :D
i had to slap myself for not animating the mum more it's so obivous and would of made a huge improvemen just why didn't i think!! but still thank you sooooo much for this :D

[Africa Dudes]

Fucking Brilliant

The comedy was genius, and dark at times. I couldn't get enough of it, the sarcasm and obvious satire at times was brilliant.

The art was very pleasing to look at, and the animation always smooth and enjoyable. The selected artists for this was a perfect choice. I don't know where the fuck you got this idea Will, but it's honestly one of the best things I've ever seen on Newgrounds. I'm also really happy with the length, although some people complained about it being to long.

They probably weren't expecting it to be that long, not that it is to long. I thought it was the perfect length and at the end wished there were more. I laughed out loud at the ending gag with the animals. I also fucking hate my voice in Hans's part, I can't believe Hans let me do it and you let my voice in.

Seriously great, this is a pivotal point in the history of Newgrounds-no-mankind. Bravo to everyone who participated in this work from God.

fuck you dude

[Jack Matthews]

omg I semened

No, but really, very good. For being 2 years old this is still actually really good. The scene flowed together beautifully, the scenes with clouds always looked good, and I actually laughed out loud a few times.

By the way why didn't you just ask me for a CAR alarm instead of an alarm lol.

Anyways, good overall.

Now I can look forward to Jack Matthews in Hell : The Game.

Oney responds:

jack matthews can go fuck himself the twisted faggot

[Want A Cookie?]

Good Job

Nicely done! The animation was better than I thought. You're 100x better than I was when I was 15. You're going to be really popular on Newgrounds someday.

Overall, LOVELY backgrounds, smooth animation, and a good story.

Nicely done man, 10/10.
