El-Cid's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shamoozal: Man-Bot]

Blehhh . . .

Seeing as how you handled yourself so gracefully to some constructive criticism with my last review, I thought I'd probe that newly discovered nerve of yours.

This had very clean animation. It's a well executed blend of tweening and fbf. The secondary motion and subtle follow through brings the robot to life. The backdrops were also above average.

The content leaves a lot to be desired though. I really couldn't muster up a laugh. It's a strange paradox to see such nice visuals with content that lacks real punch.

And it's funny to think you accused me of being juvenile when the biggest gag in this toon was a robot poking a woman's ass.

If you are content with getting your dick stroked by adolescent male NG users, that's fine. Just admit to it. But you should quit acting like one and lashing out to viewers who are keen enough to see where you need polishing. The view from inside your ass won't help you get any better.

Shamoozal responds:

I've only got one thing to clear up. Other than the camera work, and one shot at the end with MB's arm, there were no tweens used.

Thank you.

[Shamoozal: Ninja]

What??!?

You had a seriously good thing going there. You pitched and sold the idea of a serious ninja fight, and succeeded. This is something that is often attempted and often fails miserably. Congrats for that.

But what happened? The flash in its entirety was ruined, in my opinion, when it cut to "reality." My 12 year old brother literally walked out after this transitioned, and I just groaned at the cheese that ensued.

Pro animation, cool choereography, but mediocre as a whole.

Shamoozal responds:

You sir, have no clue what you're talking about. Your 12 year old brothetr? What does that make you, 10? Go watch more run of the mill flash, and never watch my stuff again, you aren't worthy of it.

[Become Anniversary Collab]

Fan-freaking-tastic.

That was a visual treat. Very very creative ideas. This rocks to the n-th.

MackProductions responds:

thanks! You've got some nice animation skills yourself

[Billy's Rock Rampage]

WTH?

Hah. Worth a laugh at least.

DAIRYDOG responds:

THAT'S THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT!

[Lonny And The Red Dragon]

There is only one Marc M.

Can't say this one went down very well. Despite a few jokes that work, there's a lot going against it.

For uno, the voices work wasn't too convincing. For two, the timing for a lot of the jokes were off. And considering how gross they were, that made it even worst.

Marc M makes some demented shit, but he's got comedic timing. I can't say the same for this.

PeterThePeasant responds:

It appears we're battling for the top 5 today. I would expect nothing less from you. May your steed fight valiantly good knight.

[Yoshi's Jam Session]

Nice

Dayum! This beats are so fresh! SNAP!

Bigfoot3290 responds:

Dude! It's El-Cid! Your stuff rocks too, brothah.

[The Gayest Showdown]

0_0

Hahaha, wow.

Although it sucked, it's suckiness was intended, ergo the suckness factor can be more easily sucked up.

Some very funny moments in this.

Plus, I tip my hat to anything that belittles a flash that is way overrated and chips away at altffour's giant penis-head of an ego.

[The Ultimate Showdown]

Doesn't deserve number one.

This video was pretty interesting. I think the music is really catchy, sounds great, although not necessarily inventive. Just using existing celebs and throwing them together doesn't merit originality. Not a piece of creative genious, but the song is put together very nicely and sounds totally pro.

The graphics were seriously lacking. They weren't outright terrible, but they were mostly tweens. That's not a bad thing, but if you're gonna tween, make those still images count. In other words, if it's not fbf, the images should look really clean and polished.

Interesting, worth the look, good music, but nothing momentous.

Those are my dos centavos.

altffour responds:

i will keep this in mind in the future when I am deciding the rank of the flashes on newgrounds

[Megaman vs Geminiman]

Very cool.

Hey, this is really cool. I enjoyed this very much.

You've honored me with this excellent peice.

Keep on flashing!

keicho responds:
