ChrisMckiernan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[12 Days of Overwatch Christmas! - Parody Music Video]

Video quality and animation was good. The five reapings audio did fit with the character but not with the melody of the song.

Crunchlins responds:

Thanks for the feedback :)
Yeah I agree, it doesn't fit the melody of the song - that was intentional however, and I thought it'd be funny for Reaper to kind of kill everyone's merry buzz ^_^ But as mentioned in the description, I can fully understand why people might not like it. Thanks for the critique, much appreciated :)

[Mech]

really cool.

[The Naughty Noddians - A&S episode 2]

Everything about his was so weird. The dialogue, animation, and story were so "out there" it was well made and the special effects were good.

Sumerias1 responds:

Thanks! It was a blast to make and a few steps up from episode one. Weird is good :)

[Noet Finished MLG Klown Pilot!! :(]

The animation is good.
I liked the dialogue and it was funny.

Though, It felt incomplete because the last half of the movie isn't colored.

MLGKlown responds:

YEA IF IT FELTED LIEK IT WASENT DOEN IT'S BECAUSE IT'S NOET FINISH AND IT WILL SADLIE NEVUR WILL BE FINISH!!! :(. IT WAS FOR A SOUNDS CONTEST BUT IT NEVUR GOT DOEND BY MY FRIEND SEB DAIGLE :(

[WTF??? Darth Vader | Star Wars Rogue One ✔]

In every star wars movie darth vader has ever been in, I don't think I've ever heard darth vader curse or rant.
The voice acting was horrible and out of character of darth vaders personality.

The audio quality needs improvement.
I wish the movie was more complex and not just darth vaders silhoutte on a monitor.

[critterfitz 'SAY CHEESE' Title Animation]

The designs, effects, background, animation, and audio is top notch. Extremely short though.

critterfitz responds:

Thanks! Yeah, I thought it'd be good to keep it kinda short, it's going to be like a title card to my animations that i post from now on.

[bird flying animation (process)]

The animation is smooth, but a little fast.
The color and video quality seemed bland and muted.

My opinion on the eagle, is it would look more realistic if the flapping wings were slowed down by half a second or a little more. Maybe add a few more in-between frames for the wings.

The backgrounds bothered me a little bit because they did not seem as detailed or as realistic looking as the eagle and looked like clip art.

Another tip is to make the mountain and clouds in the background move twice as fast but at the same pace.

Overall, Its nice and keep animating.

awesomea900 responds:

Wow, that is very helpful!

my main take away is:
a few more in-betweens for the flap part of the wing.

my main problem with the background is that i don't know how to draw a good sky. The mountains i did quickly from looking at alan becker's tutorial.

oh yeah, and i don't know how to improve video quality and color.
what i do is i export it directly from flash CC.
for some reason swiel makes the quality of my animations worst.
i have watched alan becker's video on how he exports his animations, but i don't think it works for CC.
If you could link me a video on how you achieve maximum video quality, that would be much appreciated

[Crack in my system]

The animation was good and I like the style. The story was creepy and interesting. I wished the story was drawn out a bit more by at least a minute. Overall, it was very cool.

DeadFlyFromMoon responds:

Thank you. ;)

[Pie Gai]

The animation was OK. I wished the characters and backgrounds were more detailed. It was short and I wished it was a minute or more longer. Though, the story was really funny and it out shined all the other things i mentioned before.

I enjoyed this because I can relate.
I feel this way after taking chocolate chip cookies out of the microwave.
