mrbeckham09's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Underpunch.]

I like it a lot!

[Persona In a Nutshell]

Really nice job creating a brand with this "_ in a nutshell" title.

[Harvest Moon In a Nutshell]

Really nice job! Great use of sound effects I must say.

[Overwatch In a Nutshell]

Great humour. Nice work.

[Fatsack: BWDS ep 1]

Well done on this animation! 5 Stars for:

Smooth, smooth transitions between frames.
Water-like effects on the creatures bodies and water droplets.
Humour.
Use of bright colors while displaying a happy creature.
The 'documentary' voice used in the production to make it feel realistic.
Many others, though I'd rather not write an essay.

These were all really well done. Good job. Now here comes the criticism.

I'm not sure what or where Brackenwood is. Perhaps a quick eagle's view of the place/world before the opening scene begins would give me a better feel for what to expect.

How do fatsacks play in with the rest of the world? Are they easy prey (obviously), or do they have this extraordinary defense mechanism to fend off predators? Clearly they are playful critters, but how is it that so many of them have survived for this long?

Those are just a couple of things. Again, really nice job!

Bye bye!

thanks very much for the review! I'm glad you liked the documentary feel, I've wanted to do something like this for a long time. Regarding your questions about Brackenwood and fatsacks, I could tell a lot more in each of these episodes but I want to keep them under 2 mins so I can get back to producing regular shorts. If these were 4, 5, 10 mins long like the early Brackenwood movies, each one would be in eternal production and would take too long to make.

btw the rule for these shorts is that the script must fit on a collector card. In fact, the Fatsack Brackenwood collector card has this exact script, and all future episodes will be the same. Prowlies are next :)

[HAPPY SOULS]

If this skit was finished in the first 45 seconds, I would have been content. The fact that I sat and watched the entire 15 minutes is fudgeking amazing. Well done mate!

[Magic Cat]

The dynamic camera was a very catching touch! Smooth animations. Good touch of humour. Interesting idea.

Big thumbs up!

[Treasure Trouble]

Add an element of remorse. A side effect that displays the character's weakness. We are humans and we correspond well with lifelike scenarios. You did a stellar job champ. This is a recommendation.

[George Lucas Presents: The Lightsaber Prototype]

The animation and voice acting was spot on. What I especially like about this film is the realistic nature of what a light saber might present itself as in the real world.

If the movie was this realistic, I wonder if people would still watch it.

[Sailor Moon: Tuxedo's Mask]

Sad indeed.
