TheRaceman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Brunch Of The Dead Ep.1]

Nice Combination!

You have a very nice blend of humor and horror here, leaning more toward the humor. The story seems pretty well set up, and now I HAVE to see what that zombie's gonna' do. There was obviously alot of work put into this, so I gave you a good score. Can't wait for Part 2. Keep 'em comin'!

Happy to have made you anticipate for Episode 2. I enjoyed reading your observation of Ep1. Thanx for the compliments.

[Could Have Been Worse]

Very Clean Style!

The only things that went against this was the lack of a background and the fact that it was quite short, BUT I didn't let that count to harshly against you as you did do a superb job with your animation. Very nice fight sequence. Hope to see more!

DJRunaway responds:

:) Thanks, I left the background with a reason, without background it wasn't as messy :) :) I will make a longer movie with a storyline though!

Haw Haw!

Excellent job on the lip sync! I love the message. Although we don't get to spend alot of time with the characters, we get to know them pretty quickly through your great sense of storytelling. The only thing I can say could be better is the only so-slightly muffled sound. All in all, I found this to be very well done. Thumbs up!

I have to say something here....

Alright. The review and vote come from my own roots of dark humor. What I just saw made me laugh the whole way through. Period. Most of the reviews so far have been very jaunted and I can't argue with the opinions of those who reviewed the movie itself. Apparently, though, some have seemed to take this a bit too personally. I'll say right here and now that I think Mikey is innocent. He's a freakin' wierdo no doubt. He allows himself to appear that way to the public and that's all there is to it. I have no desire to see him serve time for that fact because it's probably the result of his upbringing and 2 decades worth of exploitation from those whose paychecks are linked to his success. At the same time, being a celebrity has the drawback of becoming the butt of us common folk's jokes. What I just saw was a great example of one of those jokes. No, it's not the greatest flash film ever made and I voted accordingly with a 3 because I DID in fact like it. Should it stay in the portal? That's for the masses to decide. I wouldn't mind at all. I found the humor to be slapstick and worthy of a round of applause. I found the animation to be lacking. I found the reviews a little too harsh. Hence MY review: Good sense of comic timing. Maybe try and put a bit more effort into the visuals on the next one. Don't take bitter reviews to heart, and press ever onward.

P.S. Howard Stern Rules!! BABA BOOEY!

Hey, Knox! I don't think I've yet reviewed any of your movies, but I wanted to take a second and tell you how much I appreciate your humor. The dry ad-libby approach you take is a gas. I took an evening last week and ran through all your material and had a ball. I even went to your site and was interested in getting a DVD, but I couldn't figure out how to order one. I'm s-l-o-w I guess. I also enjoyed the sections explaining what you use to create your movies. I learned a thing or two there. Anyway, keep up the great work. I always enjoy it when I see you have a new film submitted.

Knox responds:

if you want my dvd then i have a buy button on the right side of my site now :)

Not a bad effort!

I usually don't review stick movies, nor do I give them 5s, but this time is different. I don't necessarily dislike stick movies, but they sometimes signify a lack of effort by the artist(s). This piece was not wholly representative of that theory. I can tell that alot of time went into this one, and I'd be WAY proud of this if I were still a teenager. I'm probably twice your age and I still can't get this darn Flash program thing down yet. <=) Keep up the good work, and I enjoyed the voice acting. The music almost drowned it out at times, but it sounded well produced. I really liked Alternate Intro Number 2. Very funny stuff. Jackass rocks! Also, good selection of music. I give you guys an A- overall. Keep it up!

Nice, Nice, Nice!!!

At first I was like, "Okay. Good animation on the dancing rabbit. Could use a background, though." And then you gave us the background. You had a good score coming anyways just because the animation was very well done, but the extra kick on the "tail" end was prime time mastery at work. I gave 2s where an N/A was in order, as there was no violence or humor intended. You know, there ought to be an N/A option for each category..........Anyway, great job, and don't take can_it_da's review to heart. Do you know he gave WL2P2 a 5 and all 10s right before seeing yours????!!!! And that was just a 6 sec. looped animation. It was good and all, but this was his review:

YAY! April 13, 2004

Entry: WL2P2 Overall rating: 10

YA MAN I LOVE THAT SONG!!!

keep up the good work! 5 all the way to the bank!

I'm sure he's normally on top of his game, but his wires were crossed tonight. Pay no mind and keep up the good work!

Who Framed Brooklyn's Asshole?

That's the first time I've seen a composite live action / animation that really worked. That's the first movie I laughed at all night. Great job! I haven't seen anything else you've done yet, but based solely on the strength of this piece I'm on my way to watching everything else. Keep it up!
