BaconMask's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flathead Symphony]

nice little diversion

Crisp, brief and fun. Much like a fun sized Kit-Kat. Me likey.

[Martha's Revenge]

Incomplete

I think that you do some wonderful work.I absolutely loved "Juiceball". This one, however, didn't feel complete. Just when I felt that I was getting to the warm, gooey inards- the animation was over. It was like cutting into a homemade lemon meringue pie, (with a hint of orange zest and fennel) only to find out that the fluffy meringue was streched across an empty shell.

And we all know that Martha would never leave anything half finished.

[Icons Ep 1]

Felt too familiar

This toon had a lot of good points and a few not so good points.

First off, the animation was pretty slick. Everything looked pretty clean and Nicely designed. GREAT voice acting, too! Darth Vader sounded a lot like Darth Vader. All of the charecters had nice voice acting. There were a few pretty funny moments, too.

The thing is... this cartoon really felt like a composite of other successful cartoons. The main charecter looked suspiciously like Waterman. The style felt lifted from the Family Guy, Decline, Tommorows Nobodies and so on. I guess the thing that would help your cartoon out the most would be to write out a story that would seem interesting and potentially believable.

Not a bad effort at all. In fact, I liked it. It just needs to stand out more, because it felt very lost in the crowd.

TheTreeman responds:

I agree hopefully as we progress it will stand out abit more. and Aparently i look a hell of a lot like waterman. thanx for the comments

[The Little Girl]

So Absorbing

It only took a few seconds to sink it's claws in, but once the story had begun to unfold, I was latched to this animation. What a brilliant and engrossing cartoon. You just don't hear stories like this without paying *.50 for them and buying a bucket of popcorn. Absolutely amazing. I pretty much only review something when I really, really like it.

That means I really, really liked this.

[Over There: Preview]

This puts the "otentia" in "potential"

Excuse the terrible pun...

It is rare that any clay movie (Save for, of course, Knox's works) pass through those dagger-tipped gates we know as "The Portal". This one, however, had something that a lot of other clay flicks don't have; evidence of EFFORT. Your average portal manure clay flick runs about 30 seconds and features two unarticulate globs beating the shit out of each other on someone's coffee table. That's what gives the whole genre a bad rap, imo; people who don't give a shit.

This movie actually looks interesting! I could tell just from the small clip that the story is at least somewhat intruiging! The charecters all moved with an impressive level of subtlety! I really got a kick out of the purple spiky guy's ability to smooth out the dents in his flesh! And, yes- there were even some FUNNY PARTS!

It's these things that set this one apart! Yes, there could have been more sound effects and yes - just like every other clay flick it takes place in someone's den - but the level of effort that obviously went into this makes me excited to see more!

Great going, can't wait to see the finished product!

[Little Fighter Alpha Ch.8]

Great

It was a lot like playing an RPG with out actually playing. Good story going here, it kept my interest. Neat charecters. A little short, however. Great effort!

I'll try to make my next chapter longer.
