MrShoeShine7's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Failing Upward: Sick Day]

Wow this was really fun. I like the main characters a lot, great voice acting. I think the flashback scenes were my favorite parts, they were so well animated. The music choices were nice, everyone did a good job.

WaeBakStudios responds:

Thanks dude! Hope you stick around for more.

[🚨 SECURITY ALERT !!! 🚨]

I love the excessive amount of cameras in that scene, Great job on this. The music is so good!

[RFF The Porpoise Slashing High Sea MadMan]

I love these crazy designs. I love the drawing at the end, sadly we couldn't see it animated. Nice job!

[Hockey, Love, & GUTS!]

I honestly love the ideas. Great little mock trailer for a series. However, the trailer has a few flaws.

I wanna start with the last thing I noticed, which was the title text. Hockey, love, and GUTS!!! The word "hockey" looks a little boring, the letter Y as a hockey stick with a part attached is nice, but the other letters look basic. "Love" being in cursive is a nice way to write the word, but maybe the text should be black instead of white to make it look different. And GUTS, its just thick black writing, it could be so much more. Maybe organs spelling the word guts, or muscles, or a limb, or a tattoo on a limb! Something that takes guts, something tough or gross. The way each word is separate with small torn-looking paper around each word makes them look like different titles, they could have differences but in the end look like they are all one big logo. It needs some togetherness, I think logo design is very important especially later down the line when you use it for merchandise, you definitely want it to look good and be iconic.

The animation is nice, some parts do need a little bounce or reaction, like when a character turns and their hair doesn't move. Or when they do a quick action it looks a little choppy. The timing is well done, it fits to the music. A little tlc will go a long way.

The character designs look good, I like that we see them in and out of uniform with different emotions and differing personalities, with that said the two main girls look strikingly similar.

The concept is interesting. I imagine the two girls's rivalry will often get in the way of almost eveything and seeing them work together to overcome those obstacles will be a fun time. If their similar design was intentional as they have to match as shown in this trailer, then maybe one detail you can change is their noses. Since they aren't twins they don't have to look like they are! I hope this improves, I enjoyed it.

[STICKERFACE]

Cute animation and style. The writing is surprisingly good, the alien girl tossing the candy at their friend was a little rude, so it seemed unrealistic to me, but maybe thats the nature of their friendship. The voice acting was great, and the credits were creative. Nice!

sugarofcube responds:

There's actually a reason why the alien acts kind of strange sometimes! I wrote them as being autistic and having a different approach to social situations, so they don't know how to comfort their friend and maybe come across as a bit inconsiderate at times, but they show that they deeply care in a way that makes sense to them: remembering everybody's favorite snacks and making sure to come prepared with them even if it gets in the way of things.
Just adds some more interesting dynamics to the character interactions, I think (:
Hope that clears it up, thank you sm for the positive feedback ^ ^

[mr beast is jigsaw]

I love the silent laughing or insane hyperventilating noise, not sure which it was right before he goes "STOP, THE MUSIC. STOP IT." (music continues as they try turning it off). It would've been nice to see the captain come back at the end for closure. You did great playing jimmy, so funny.

[Introducing Debbie Sparks]

This was a crazy ride. Great acting, animation, and concept for a short film all rolled into one. All the music choices were perfect and you nailed the crazy-insane look! The robotic creation known as Debbie Sparks was creepy and when he was cutting out all the eyes and putting them on the wall, almost like he does want some attention shows how far from reality this guy really is. The ending was a bit of a cliff hanger! It's symbolic how the rock and the man was resembled by Debbie and the main character. Really great work.

MaxJohnsonINK responds:

Thanks very much MrShine!

[DO RATS GO 2 HEAVEN?]

Its cute, the animation was well done! Good voice acting for the characters as well. I like that the rat becomes a mush.

[Visia's Spook Office]

I didn't think that epilepsy warning at the start was serious since the other warnings jumbled with it were jokes. I think next time you'll have to make that distinction more clear. I like the character in the beginning and the end, that I imagine was supposed to be a distraction of sorts. It is pretty crazy but the visuals and animation were well made. The voices were a bit hard to hear with the effects, so it's a good thing you had subtitles on this. I like the intro song, good stuff.

[sam and hain]

This was really cute. My favorite part has to be when she killed the cotton candy and death started eating it.
