KyleRoberts's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Police Cops]

I really like this - I've added this to my favorites and watched it several times. I'm currently working on a project that I want to have a over-the-top,"campy cop" feel to it - similar to this.

Do you have any recommendations for anime or manga to check out that you've been inspired by?

Kel-chan responds:

this was inspired by Lupin III and panty and stock w/ garterbelt and also Cutie Honey. Those animes are pretty over the top and I liked the style from cutie honey- the 2004 remake.

But pretty much most animes by Gainax are this style of over the top silly stuff

[16-Second Fury]

Dear God...

That text is really hard to read, man. It made me not even care about what to do next, because it was too much of an effort. Keep things like text simple to read - don't get over decorative with it using glows and such.
Let me focus on the story and the game and make the info I need easy to come by.

Izzy712 responds:

Alright, i'm on it. I'm fixing it at the moment.

[Let's Walk]

Nice.

I admit, I rarely review. But this was great enough that I had to say something. I thought it was rather fresh and interesting. What a great choice for music too! I just liked the direction...10 hours or not...

Nice job. :)

Soundshifter responds:

thank you for your time :)

[Yin Yang: I Am The One]

Nice. I like it!

My vote is that he dies and doesn't REALLY come back... as himself. Make a new character...some sort of new Zion "Agent" with a residual look of the red guy. Add glasses and an earpiece to distiguish that he's part of the agent programming but maybe somehow upgrade the overall look, so we all know he's not JUST an agent, but part of Zion. Just an idea but I really like your concept of having a good agent working for Zion! Nice job.

5AMURA1kid responds:

Nice idea.I'm guessing you don't think he's REALLY the one, though. I'll give it some thought, but overall, good concept! Thank you for your input!

[Avoiding Blamnation (HNT)]

So true, so true....

....yet the same lazy bastards who flood the portal with crap will probably be too lazy to read and learn from your teachings!

But you have spoken so many people's thoughts accurately. Thank you. I enjoyed it...made me misty eyed.

JujubeLock responds:

I'm glad that you thoroughly enjoyed it. :D

[Spy Vs Spy Ep.1]

Nice Job!

I always wanted to try something with Spy vs. Spy in Flash after seeing it on MadTV every now and then. Looks like you beat me to it! Yeah, I thought the Mountain Dew Commercial was pretty cool too.

It looks like you're trying to trace over the actual comic strips due to the narrowness of the Flash movie window. I understand what you did and that's cool, trying to keep the dimensions of everything just like the dimensions of the strip. I would suggest tracing the important elements like the Spies and their props and the thought balloons and everything and redoing the unimportant stuff, like the fence and sidewalk. Illustrate those yourself just so you can open up the Flash stage a little more.

Keep up the good work! It'd be nice to see a series of these!

Jszostak responds:

good advice

[Your First Game Tutorial]

I like it!

Very well done. Usually I think these types of tutorials suck, but you added audio (which could be a little louder) that explains things on top of what you see on the screen. Everything was well organized and I also liked how you highlighted each chunk of text that you were currently addressing so that the user could follow along. One of the best user-made tutorials I've seen here. Good job. 3/5.

luminousnerd responds:

lol,

you crack me up, thanks though XD

[Computer Music]

A good start...

...yeah, just b/c this seems similar to that Windows Noises flash that did so well, small brained people think that it's never been done before or can never be done again without ripping it off. I liked this and would like to see it developed even further with more vid clips and way more sounds. I'm judging this a piece of music now, so you've got to fully compose a song for this to rate well. That doesn't mean that it has to be 5 min. long but interesting enough. Keep up the good work, it looks really interesting.

AntiClockClock responds:

Im a small brained person?

[DEUS EX MACHINA]

Hell Yeah.

It's somewhat annoying when people believe that understanding the meaning of a piece of art immediately makes it good. Like the user Trigger Loaded said, "I hate abstract art. Abstract flash is worse." Comments like that indicate a pretty closed mind.

Anyway, I think this is great. I wish they had a special section on Newgrounds for pieces like this. I guess it doesn't fit into the target audience as well.

FREELENS responds:

I'm not sure, Newgrounds offers a variety of people perfect for this kind of thing, I've read reviews of 13 year olds with a larger brain then those who believe theye're smart just because they're 28

[Baby Skull TRILOGY]

Not bad...

I'm sensing a 'Happy Tree Friends' thing going on here....cute characters that get brutally mauled. If that's what you're going for, go all out. Make people go, 'Holy shit, did that just happen?'. That's my two cents

PuNK-H3Ro responds:

thanks for the advice, ill keep that in mind for my next flash, whenever im bothered to make it :P
