Xiivi's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Merry Christmas Tom Fulp]

Hmm, glad this got the front page.

It really deserved it too, I'm surprised it didn't stay on that long and has such a low score, this is at least 4.00 material in my opinion. Hopefully with this review your next flash will be even better. First off, this was VERY original, I don't think I've seen any other flash like it, that's grade A material right there, a perfect way to make a good flash. Another thing you can improve upon though would have to be the graphics. Although the animation was smooth and went well, I'm sure we could have all liked to see some of the artwork to be done better, mainly on the characters. But it wasn't bad, just not the best, a bit too choppy on the violence also. You could have done that better, I didn't see very much work put into the blood and gore and such. But I did find the flash to be extremely funny. A group of NGers breaking into Tom's house to say Merry Christmas and him going ballistic because they made him die while playing Alien Homonid. Nice concept right there. Also, you could have used some better sounds for the violence scenes and such. But overall it was a really good flash that I enjoyed watching, I can't wait to see what you have in store for NG in the near or distant future.

Wow best review yet! Thank you so much for your critics and nice words! I know I can make my next movie better if I put more time and effort in it and reviews like this make me want to do that!

Hmm, a bit too random for me.

It's still a pretty good flash, but just a bit too much on the random side to really be appreciated. You could stand some improvement on graphics and such, and the sound wasn't top notch. Your style isn't anything too new or original either. But don't get me wrong, it cetainly wasn't a bad flash at all. But it did get a bit dull later on. My suggestion would be to have some more flow with the transitions and not using different drawing techniques throughout the flash. Consistancy is a good thing. It got a little funny near the end, but not much. Overall it's pretty good and I'll hope to see something new from you in the future.

TeknoGames responds:

because it wasn't just one movie, many different clips from many different flashes of mine.

[Penguinmation Collection]

So simple, yet so fun.

Thank you for bringing great justice to my favourite animal of all time, the penguin. All of those little mini-flashes seems very sketchy, but they were pretty funny and random none the less. Your own style makes it all the better with your original concept, but why Pepsi cans? The little clips of music you had were pretty nice seletions too. You had me laughing a bit, very good flashes indeed. Hope to see a sequal coming up in the near future, I'm sure you'll have new things to do with those penguin plushies. =D

[Manga-Gaga 100 Omake]

Your flash sparked my interest about your manga.

I just love how you decided to sum up the 100 comics you've made into flash for as commenuration for this event. You really do deserve your award if not a higher one. I really want to check out this manga of your's due to your great artwork. You used so many different styles of drawing throughout the flash that it really made me think "Hey, this guy has some great art skills." Sadly, the song you picked ended up coming out a bit sketchy at points. You should have tried a bit harder at making it flow better. But seeing as this is your first flash it only makes since that your bound to run into a few mistakes. Perhaps you won't end up with that problem in the future. Always triple check your work for any errors and get them fixed, that way you won't lose any ratings. Also, the song you choose fit perfectly with the theme of your overally hyperactive flash. Yet as many are saying you choose to use a song that already had a music video, not only that but one that had a great music video for it. Although your flash is great, the other was better and people tend to be biased and vote lowly because of it. Next time, try making some of your own music. You'll find that since you made it, it'll fit much better with the mood you were trying to set for your comics. Well you worked hard and the hard work did pay off. I hope to see more of your work in the future, actually I will. Because once you get your site back up I'm checking it out. Happy 100th comic.

GagaMan responds:

Thanks for the in depth review. Yeah the music is a little choppy, but after trying lot's of different ways of sticking the music in that turned out to be the best result. And yeah, i do relise this music has been used in a few videos before (including one off the site the music's from and about 3 or 4 other Japanese flash videos) but it just seemed perfect for it, and I'm no good at making my own music really XD

Again, thanks for the review.

[Teh CC Slumber Partay P1]

Very nice overall

Graphics 10: Very nice artwork, I can tell you didn't let that year go to waste.

Sound 8: Good, but the voices get annoying over time.

Interactivity 10: Lots of buttons for many things, better than the usual play and replay buttons.

Style 10: CC is ok, yet your unique way of doing things boosts the score up.

Violence 7: It had some stuff every now and then, not too much though.

Humor 10: Does this really need to be explained?

I really enjoyed your flash and hope that your second part will come out soon and not take another year. Hope you get a good rating on this and your second. Thank you for once again proving that CC does still have some life left and talented flash artists.

Topcatyo responds:

First of all, I'd like to say thank you for starting my day off extremely happy. Reviews like these are what get artists to make cartoons.
Part 2 is already finished, but I'm waiting till clockday (August 15).
Thank you for the review.

[Limbnots]

Very good

Lol that carrot is SOOOOO evil!!! OMG! Like the little game over thing with the poninja and hank. But using the strawberry clock voice ruined it a bit, oh well it was still great.

Nextrol responds:

Yes... those damn carrots are vicious... we all must wear protective gear! :)

Thanks for the review.
