El-Cid's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[cupcake?]

Whoa

It's like modern art, except with actual technical skill behind it.

TheBoogley responds:

oh El-Cid, you say the darnedest things! Bill Cosby would love to interview you! X3

[Pleasure Island 2]

Okay

Couple spots had me laughing. Most notably the whipping scene. Pretty funny stuff.

[Midnight Visit]

Not bad, not great

The tension you build with the monster, and then just having him give a candybar was pretty nice., but why'd you have to use a name brand bar? Kind of ruined it for me. Would have liked to see something original here.

And speaking of originality, I couldn't help but be reminded of Adam Phillip's flash that has a similar premise and ends exactly like this.

Should try doing something that's a bit more your own.

GoatmanGADs responds:

I was unsure whether or not to use a brand name, in fact I DID make it my own to start with, but then I thought a mrGoodbar was just too funny, I suppose next time I should go with my first intinct, I'm on the same page with you about keeping it original though so thanks for letting me know!

[The Ballad of CrippleKane]

Wow

That was really nice, man. Imaginative & fun. The graphic look was also done very nicely. Akin to the KFP opening scene.

Kudos.

AlmightyHans responds:

thanks dude! also, whats KFP?

[Doug Funny Fight !!!]

Funny

Awesome pick up line, and pretty decent effect. Doug's punch looks really awkward though. Overall cool and good for a laugh.

Also, for something this terse, a preloader is in order.

[A Norse in the 9th Ward]

Great

Funny shit.

Some of the humor seemed familiar (like the back and forth "fuck you"s), but it was still funny. The black guy on the far right cracked me up.

Looking forward to see what else you might make. I vote for a song number!

[Exodus Tyson Punched Out]

Hahahaha

You went there, and I followed.

[Awesome Cracks Down]

WHAT?

I don't know the hell I just saw, but this flash cracked me up in a couple of spots.

"COFFEE FOR EVERYOOOONNEE"

Egoraptor responds:

Thanks man you're a charmer. :3

[Sad Larry]

Pandering

If this had been part of a longer, more involved piece, this would have been an amusing gag. Otherwise, as a whole it's just a mediocre advertisement.

I say mediocre, because the art is simple, the characters straightforward/bland, and the gag nothing novel.

I say advertisement because being that it was so simple, it felt like an easily reproducible internet commodity--packaged and delivered for the multitudes of bored internet consumers. And then these suckers buy shirts with art that your little brother could have easily done.

[Yoyo vs FLLFFL]

whoa

Just when I think I've seen 'em all. This stick fight raises the bar on anything before.

The characters look like they had weight, moved very hyper-realistically, and your use of strategic slow mo was a nice touch.
