SoulMaster71's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dailytoon #400: Part 1]

Good work, Star Syndicate.

I usually don't like noir; it's often a bit too serious for my tastes. But this one was good, indeed better than good. Truly this submission was deserving of the day celebrating it! There is much here to love, for any fan of great Flash movies.

It's almost impossible for me to try to give any "help" or "tips" in the face of near-perfection, especially since I'm not a Flash-maker myself, but I did have one minor problem, not with the content of the movie but with the preloader. You see, it took multiple clicks of the "Play" button to get the movie to play. And while the reward for finally getting it to work was definitely worth the number of clicks, it was still a bit of a minor nuisance (just not enough of one for me to take off review points).
5/5, 10/10, Favorited.

Different, to say the least.

Every day, or at least every day I decide to do some B/P, I see the same old things over and over again. The same overused concepts put together endlessly in certain ways. Mario mishaps. Navi annoying Link. Madness tributes, Madness tributes, and more Madness tributes. While I sometimes enjoy them, they do get fairly boring from time to time. And then I click on this Flash... And it's a real breath of fresh air. Original, that's what I'm trying to say. And perhaps "experimental" might apply as well. And after tons of overused shit flooding the Portal, that is most definitely a good thing.

But of course, originality alone doesn't explain my rating for this. It's also fairly fun to watch. The only problem I have with it is the strange squiggles you put on at times, and the text of similar sort that I couldn't read. I know that was your intention, and it certainly adds to the whole "trippy" atmosphere of the movie, but it's not usually something I'm into. Still, on the whole it was a good submission.
4/5, 8/10.

Glad you enjoyed it. I am going to make much more stuff like this in the future so you may want to keep an eye out for it.

I'm impressed.

I remember back in December, when these weren't all that good. They didn't have sound, the graphics were poor, there was no background, and they were, at best, worthy of a 2 vote.

Flash forward to February 2008. The idea of yoshi77777 has been picked up by Bstuk2, and great improvements have been made. Sound and backgrounds have been added, the range of sprites has been improved greatly, and these have become much better. I like the change, and I am impressed by the greatly-improved quality of these animations from their December version.
4/5, 8/10

Bstuk2 responds:

Thanks! The next ones wont be as big as of an improvement of this one, because there isn't very much to improve on at the skill level I have. I really do want to finish this series, but I probably wont seeing that I have 56 left.
