FortressRubbish's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Epic Beard Man]

Ah, good ol' fashion racism.

Not a whole lot of movement, but as usual the art is among the best on the site and the comedic timing is ace. I think you could have splurged the extra 12 or so frames for an epic beard man punch, but that's just me.

Either way pretty cool. It's brothers like that whom make me face palm for the rest of us.

im lazy, i admit it.

[RHG vs. Spearton (1)]

Seen better, but it's alright.

Art:

The BG was pretty bland...Lazy gradient fills for the platforms, overuse of the shape tools, etc.. If you're going to be utilizing the same BG throughout the entire short you may as well put some effort into it. The sticks blended a bit too much with the background, the eye can't discern as well with such small dimensions.

Animation. Not exactly choppy, but there wasn't much easing or spacing, they seemed to move at a robotic pace. I'd check out LF2Master's or Terkoiz's stuff to illustrate what I'm talking about. A fluidity so hard to achieve yet very pleasing.

all in all it was entertaining, but there's room for improvement.

Kwing responds:

Thanks. No way I'll ever be like Terkoiz...

[Mammoth]

I loved it.

The story was simplistic yet incredibly enjoyable. The minimalistic textured style was also very pleasing too the eyes. I only wish you would've made better use of actual animation. Things were sometimes no more than 2 frames long, and the fight between himself and the alien could have been much more epic. at the same time, it fits the style to keep things fairly straightforward though...Hence the 9. I look forward to more of your work :).

You've a unique way of tweening.

I honestly haven't seen many artists that can make tweening seem so life-like and enjoyable, rather than robotic and saturated. I gotta say you've become one of my favorite authors after watching your madness flash, I'll definitely be on the lookout for more of your stuff.

As for the flash: Short, too short, but I liked the style. I feel that's what you and your dad really look like. if you were to be transformed into cartoons, it's got that cool indie animation feel.

[The Human Snot]

This reminds me of....

Happyharry's work. The voice-acting, style, and promising fbf are all there. This was submitted '04. It's '09 he was 16 then, and he's 21 or 22 now. Idk, I just have a hunch.

Regardless, that was a pretty bad ass run cycle.

[Charlie the Unicorn 3]

The starfish bit was brilliant

I couldn't stop laughing, he kept interrupting the puffer, man that was comedic genius at work.
