Sean-McGravy's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pikachu's Had Enough]

Sorry. Just not that appealing.

I suppose it was an okay effort though I guess. Although I did kinda get annoyed with the cliche "MY SPLEEN" joke. ACK. BE A LITTLE MORE ORIGINAL.

But I gotta say that was pretty good for a first cartoon. Keep it up.

Shuko responds:

Yeah, the whole spleen thing IS overdone... but I just couldn't resist. :P Thanks for the review!

[Non-Canonical Joke Minute]

Pretty good.

Okay, let me start off by saying the obvious. BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION. I loved Pepper and Drink's designs. They were just put together so beautifully and well... there's not much I could say that hasn't been said already. It was just awesome. And the ability to rewind and fast-foward scores MAJOR points. But now, I have to be a little bitch and point out some flaws (don't take this personally or anything).

Now looking back at this, the ogre things looked kinda crappy and out of place... I thought the sequence pretty stupid to begin with though. He calls the guy a fat bastard. I mean so what? Haha? What the hell is that? Maybe I'm fuckin' dense and completely missed something but it just seemed pretty lame. I guess it really didn't matter anyway.

As for the "punch line"... well it wasn't laugh out loud funny. It was kinda amusing. I dunno... It was delivered well for what it was. Although I thought Pepper's voice acting was pretty sketchy. I mean, it was SOOOO plain and quiet and BLAH. It really didn't have any feeling. I don't know why this got to me so much but yeah...

Moving on, my main gripe is honestly the length of this thing. Okay, it's eye candy, but other than that this cartoon didn't offer much. I mean just when I sit down to enjoy it BOOM. It's over. I nearly CRIED. I'll admit, it was sorta enjoyable but pretty characters and nice scenery a cartoon doesn't make. There wasn't ANY story involved in this piece at all. A couple of one-liners and OH GUESS WHAT GUYS, CREDITS. From what you had so far this could have been the intro to an AWESOME Flash work but it just ended. You have to admit that you could have done SO much more and so much better with this thing.

Listen, I absolutely LOVE your style and you gotta shitload of talent. If you keep working like this you're gunna make a cartoon to BLOW us all outta the water, but you came pretty short this time (literally). Anyway, nice job and stuff...

touched responds:

Look, I'm *working* on long pieces where the story is very developed. But while I do that, people keep begging for stuff, so I release little things like this in the meantime which don't take too long, This was not intended to have a story at all, just to tell a couple of jokes. Before informing me of my potential, see what else I've already done, not just here but on my sites. And yes, you missed the double entendre between the aliens.

[My GOD, Robots! episode 2]

It was... okay.

I guess the major thing that dragged down its score was the audio stuff. I mean, there weren't any damn sound effects. It kinda makes it seem sorta half-assed. It doesn't take that much to just add a few little bits in. As for the voices, GET ANOTHER VOICE ACTOR. JESUS CHRIST. I'm sorry but it had to be said. Those stupid little accents you tryed to give the people were just REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING. I WANTED TO STAB MY FUCKING HEAD IN LISTENING TO THEM. I realize you probably went for a comical effect with it but it made me commit murder. I'm sorry but that was just terrible. Another thing that was kind of lame was when the robots had to explain how the kid got there TO THE KID when duh... HE WAS CLEARLY THERE. It was just really cheesy and dumb.

But on to the good points, I have to admit, the animation and overall style you presented kicked ass! I loved the different perspectives you showed, instead of the cliche strait on view with people standing there facing either left or right kinda shit (aka Homestar Runner syndrom). It was very lively and had a lot of nicely done animation. It had a lot of potential, but I just couldn't fully enjoy the story with those damn audio problems tearing my ears apart. They just didn't do the whole movie justice. But good effort anyway. FIX THIS FOR THE NEXT ONE.

[The Jiggly Butt : Foamy The Squirrel]

Haha. That was pretty good.

Not much I can say about this 'cept it brought a smile to my face. I like these recent Foamy toons. Alot of these cartoons have been pretty slow and boring in the past but I really like the silly... uh... actually there's really no word for this but AWESOME.

Personally, I like Germaine in these new ones because now she's not just that stupid one-dimensional character she used to be. I mean c'mon people, how the hell can you honestly say that you'd like her to just stand there... and just... breathing every damn episode. And shut the hell up about her being naked. It's a f*cking cartoon. LOOK AT REAL WOMEN or get a girlfriend for f*cks sake you sad bastards... You could draw some circles in MS Paint and you'd get a naked Germaine if you're just that sad. GOD.[/rant]

Anydanghoo, great job. I'm looking forward to the next one. *scurries of to your site*

[Grand Theft Boner]

That sucked.

I dunno why the hell you guys think this Flash is so great, but that was BORING. The graphics were really well done but all it is is cheap eye-candy. The whole concept was lame and unexciting. Not only that, but the voices were fucking annoying. This sucks.

[The Wrong Vagina]

...It had its "ups and downs"...

First of all, I gotta say I love your style of animating. 'Tis very good. Great characters too... Okay, now continuing with this review:

-=WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!=-
I really liked the intro. It was a really fun and unique way of introducing the characters. However, my interest really swayed when Klunk starting on the "Your dick is 2 sizes too small" bit. Random swearing isn't necessarily funny. It's really gay unless provided the right voiceacting which that bit lacked. This cartoon started off kinda slow, but I enjoyed the random jokes and the classic "white guy being black" bit. Then, we came back to Klunk's incoherent ramblings of how he never had a happy Valentine's Day. He, as a character, really started going downhill from the start. In the intro he was pretty cool but he really became a bore. Continueing through the story, from the start of the park sequence I could really tell where it was going. The joke was way too obvious and really, a funny show is unpredictable. And we came back to Klunk swearing (same problems). However the final joke brought a smile to my face. I must give you credit for that "unpredictable" plot twist.

Overall it had its "ups and downs", but I'll still anticipate the next episode in the series (if one comes about). Doing a series is hard work but you pulled it off nicely for a first episode (Is it a first episode? Correct me if I'm wrong.) Anyhoo, great job, I'll look forward to more of your work.

[A Flower for Osama]

Ack. I didn't like this at all.

There's not much for me to say. The animation was... well not good. There was no sound. There was no funny. Don't get discouraged though; it's only your second try anyway. Keep trying and learn from other people.

For all you people out there: Don't expect much.

[Too Much Television]

Good... kinda monotonous after a while though.

Well I got to say this was an okay watch. You did a very good job with the animation, which was very fluid and done very well. However this movie never quite caught my attention. The humour didn't bring any "laugh out loud" moments, more like "silent smile" moments. There were a couple of funny things that were pretty cute (like Waldo poping out), but it got somewhat tedious towards the end and sadly went downhill from the start. I would have given it a 7, but the cool-aid man joke was totaly stolen from Family Guy.

Overall a good watch.
