Renegade-Hamster's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pulch: The Good Times]

Hahaha!

Very odd and yet kid-friendly this time!

I love your graphic style. It's pretty unique, and your animation is nice and smooth.

The dialogue is hilariously deranged, and the voices are great.

The music also does a nice job of under-toning the bizarre nature of this submission.

Good job!

4/5

[Some Random Thing]

Not very funny

Most of these seemed to rely on the calm-then-SHOCK formula, which wasn't used to good effect.

The only thing I found funny was the sword falling in Link's face, which I found to be a humourous parody of the Zelda games.

You need to make each joke more clever, like the Link one. You can't just give a gun to a character who would never usually use a gun and expect people to be in hysterics when someone gets shot.

The rest of the skits were pretty dumb.

2/5

At least you thought one was good.

[Forest spirit [part 1]]

Don't feel down!

This is absolutely awesome.

Your attention to detail is great, and your art is amazing, if not AS refined as Adam Phillips' linework. But then again, he has had a lot more practice and used to work for Disney.

You have gotten very close to his greatness, but this submission should be allowed to stand by itself. It has it's own grandeur.

It should make it to the front page and get lots of views. Be happy!

5/5

P.S. I know everyone else is telling you this, but a backing track would be nice for the main part of the toon, and if you want sound effects, try out findsounds dot com.

[StarCraft: The Hunt 2/2]

Heng on a munute!

I think you should have named this

NEW ZEALANDERS...

IN...

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!!

Voice-acting could have been better, but the audio quality was nice and clear, and I love how you retained your real accents instead of "americanising" yourselves.

Some good action sequences and graphics. Great job on another quality submission.

4/5 (almost a 5)

LogFish responds:

Heh yea dog, you should check out the reviews of the first episode, I was getting SLAMMED about the accent, but hardly anyone gives a crap anymore and some people like it! I'm glad I didn't, I don't feel like I've sold out at all like I would have. I knew people would get over it! Now I just have to somehow inform people that it isn't a british accent, sigh...

[Silent Hill 2: CE]

"Hilarity ensues"????

Oh dear! This was not very funny at all. I liked the intentional cheesyness, but it wasn't laugh-out-loud funny. All of the jokes are pretty weak and too similar to ones that have been done many times before (not in subject, but in structure).

In a parody, it is not enough to merely criticise the dubious situations and scenarios of the game ("why didn't I just use the chainsaw I picked up earlier?"), you must come up with funny ways of criticising it. In this respect, I think you failed.

The animation itself was pretty good. The subtitles were not needed and were a distracting inclusion. The sound quality is good enough that you don't need to use them. Especially not for sound effects.

This deserves a 3/5 (nearly a 4/5).

I think the others on NG have gotten a little too excited about this cartoon.
