Xiivi's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[XIAO XIAO Spoof]

Not the best of your works.

Although this is probably one of your earliest works now that I see the submission date, but it really wasn't that good of a parody even if it is from '01. The animation is smooth, but it all looks horrible, even bad for stick. The sound isn't that good either, you could have maybe put in some backround music. It wasn't that funny, except for maybe the "remove your mask" part, which still merely cracked a smile out of me. Glad to know your later works are better, everyone has to start somewhere I guess. =D

[Tier]

Nice mechanical effects.

You really gave the flash a mechanized feel throughout the entire thing, and that really adds more depth to it and makes it far easier to watch. The music you picked wasn't bad at all either. Your own unique style helps to enhance the flash also. And the contrast against the mechanized feel with the supposed "good guys" also makes it more the better. Keep up the good work, this was one of the best I've seen.

[Where's the Cream Filling]

Very funny, but sadly also very obvious.

I knew exactly what was going to happen when the scene started. But that didn't stop your little excapade from making me laugh, you took it further past what I had originally expected and made it even more comical. Also your drawing and animation skills aren't that bad either. Hope to see more from you in the future. =D

[The George Bush Show 7]

You really enjoy political flashes don't you?

From viewing most of your flash this one is one of your better works, your work also seems to be improving drastically. I really never got into politics myself yet, but I still know everything you're trying to say in your flashes. Can't say I agree with every last detail, but that's just exaggerated concepts to add some humor, which isn't a bad thing at all. =D

[Bonus Stage #15: Zombie 2]

Looks like I'll be heading off to that site now.

After watching and going through all the episodes here in order it seems as if I am addicted and shall need to go to your site to watch the rest, I'll just review this one for simplicity. Your artwork is original, and I know it's not bad, but for some reason it just doesn't seem that right, but still good none the less. Your style is original with a funny plotline and all, but some of the voices got to be very annoying. But overall it's a nice series. =D

[scampi]

I think you like loops a bit too much.

Heh, just kidding. It's your signiture form of flash anyway. I like your loop trait, and I also like watching it until it goes insanely out of sync. These always end up being addicting and funny. Even if they are made about random concepts that have no real significance. But as I said it's your signiture style of flash that let's you cook up such crazy things. =D

[Rise of the MK:Part 3]

Rather odd twist you added into that one.

Anywhere you got that idea from? Playing Mario too much and deciding to utilize the stop clock for your flash purposes? I wouldn't have thought of making a plot twist like that, nice work. Even if it's sprite, it's sprite done right. Your music is also pretty nice. Also, from watching all 3 of them I saw that you are still improving somewhat, so your next one better be awesome, of course I'm sure it will. =D

[EVA6]

That was truely a great way to sum it all up.

You once again earn my respect as artist most likely to take something, and add an exciting twist to it. Too bad it's over, unless of course you want to make Misato's Pixel Adventure.... That ending effect where you went through future titles wasn't that bad either, and the music was really good also. Hope to see you working on some more Evangelion stuff in the near future, I'm sure it'll be worth my time to watch. =)

[EVA5 The Rei Puppet Show]

Another masterpiece by TENT.

I really enjoy Evangelion and like to see what creative parodies people can come up with, and of course this flash is no exception. I also enjoyed the little quote you decided to toss in at the end, a very good one indeed. =D

[T.V. Kills]

Nice try at trying to cover up!

We all know you copied this from Mr. Happy Face. Yet instead of crediting Mr. Happy Face (which is perfectly fine) you decide to act like it was your inital idea which I know for a fact it is not. Normally I would have given this flash a 7 or 8. Yet your unhonestly loses you lots of respect. I mean, is it that hard for you to credit Mr. Happy Face? Your reply (if you make one) will most likely go like this: "I didn't copy it! I was halfway done when Mr. Happy Face came out!!!" Yet sadly there is no way that is true. Let's look at the difference in release times, 16 days. Then, look at the Salad Fingers series, #3 and #4 were released with an 18 day gap. Which means he worked 18 days on #4. I'm not comparing this flash itself to this, I'm comparing how long and how much work they have in between them. Salad fingers 4 was perhaps 3 times as long as this and definately had more work put into. Thus you want us to believe that this took you 32 days, when that one took just 18? The time it takes to make a flash of this quality is no where near a month. And don't try disregarding my opinion by the good old "Flash by BackToNormal: -none-". Because I don't have flash, but I do know how long it takes to make them. Your flash would have been a lot longer if you had really taken a month. But this was only around 2 and a half weeks of work. Also, you didn't cover your trail in the flash at all. You may have had "Jimmy" written out, but the TV said "Timmy". So you didn't even change the name from Timmy, you tried but messed up. Also, you did the "Are you going to be my friend. No, I'm going to kill you." routine, just like Mr. Happy Face. You copied, you don't want to admit it. If you had admitted it, then your score would have been higher. But instead by trying to be dishonest and cover it up you get your score lowered. Also in your review of Mr. Happy Face you wrote "This needs a sequel." Showing that you wanted more stuff like it. Just make a flash and credit who you got the idea from if you aren't going to make your own. Everything was great, except it really wasn't your idea. Please, respond. I'd love to see your explaination! =P

sedatedmonkey responds:

Look pal, this was my firts ever flash animation that I completed. Meaning, I've never made anything with flash before, in turn meaning that I have no clue how to use flash, Meaning that it could very well have taking me time to finish it. And the tv didn't say timmy, i recorded the voice myself assbag. Go suck a fat one. Is it really that hard to believe? You obviously spent way to much time thinking up this review.
