Dookie-Shoes's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Logo]

For someone with the name "simple" there sure was a lot going on.
I mean you tried doing like 3 or 7 different things in one friggin logo.
I say that while it looks fantastic, It may be a bit much.
If it were me I would have just stuck with the first little "particles turning to letters thing", and maybe for different videos or cartoons or whatever I would have alternated between "particle to letters" and "letters to fire" and "fire letters to singe logo"
I understand you want to impress people, and you certainly impressed me, but don't go overboard.
All that being said, its just my opinion, it still looks phenomenal

S1mpl3Animations responds:

Thank you! I was actually with the same doubt. Perhaps I was thinking that depending on the length of the rest of the video, keeping the whole animation (for long videos) or just one of the two parts (only particles for medium size videos or only fire for short videos). It would also good to alternate between the two, I did not think of that and is a good idea, thank you!

[The Better Audio Portal]

I commend you good sir
You are doing gods work.
Its actually pretty good animation for 2 hours. its smooth, and relatively fluid.
For just a head, and mouth moving its still pretty good, and that background is pretty cool if i do say so myself.

[OTB - Knobs and Dials]

I like this
The backgrounds are very detailed, and awesome, and the sound was pretty good too.
I got to say that for a radio-tube doing laundry that was a pretty good toon

RadioTubeClock responds:

Thanks!

[Improvable: Orphanage]

Sounds like something you guys did using your podcasting mic, all taken in one take.
Aside from that little observation, this ain't half bad. Its actually kind of cute.
I think that it works pretty well for loosely animated stuff.
you did the best with what time you had I'm assuming, I know you have other more important stuff to work on so I can understand the dip in quality compared to your other toons.

I think I will definately see this cabin full of sleepy dopes and their website.

[300 Lip sync test]

Wow that was pretty entertaining for a test
decent lip sync, really lip sync isn't the end all of animation though, As long as it looks like they are saying what they are saying its fine.
and this was pretty good man
cheers

goodguy201 responds:

woah, thank aloot for your kind words!! And really glad you liked it!!

[Madness Random: Practice]

Not bad,
Don't put your animation skills so down, it looks just like krinkels for the most part, the only way I could tell that it wasn't is that the characters in krinkels toons are a little more "active" like even when they are standing still their hands are still moving or something.
looks good, sounds good, overal good practice, good hustle boy

As practice I say, keep practicing, this is good, but don't let that get to your head, keep practicing, and you'll get better, and better, and your cartoons will get longer, and longer

Mr-Riot-NG responds:

Okay, thank you!

[Lord Falkin]

Hey that was pretty good.
the joke was okay maybe a little too on the nose, but still a funny concept.
but the animation looked a little "boxy", and "from a can" I feel like you were just using go-animate or something. I want to say that you could improve your character design, and animation, because it isn't really too exciting. All I see is jesus getting his mail, watching tv, and getting a new book, its not really anything above what a rated g version of family guy might have jesus do.
Don't get me wrong, its still a good cartoon, for promoting your book and all, and your website, but as a cartoon by itself, I have to say that it isn't so great.

[Where is he!?]

I feel the same damn way!
Friggin why is it so hard to find some lenky little striped wierdo in a crowd.
Anyway,
Animation looked pretty good, the sound ,in my opinion, is improvable, but its really nothing but me being picky, it sounds good, and clean, its just the guy doing the batman voice is a little jarring, not exactly hitting that trademark growl.
good cartoon man

TheIYouMe responds:

He is a sneaky bastard, that Waldo!

Sound is definitely my weakest area, I'll admit. I personally liked his Batman voice, but then again, I can't exactly be picky, I don't necessarily have voice actors chasing me down, trying to help me out. This guy helped me out and I think he did a pretty good job - way better than I could've done myself atleast. But you gotta admit, that Alfred voice was pretty good, right?

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it.

[Stabbed]

Hey pretty sweet animation
It looked smooth, and very bouncy and fun, I like it.
Sound was kind loud, (at least for me cuz I was wearing headphones)
But hey it was still a solid cartoon. It sounded good, and looked pretty good, for some somewhat simple shaded body figures.
If I wanted to be critical of anything I will say that the humor wasn't really for me. I don't like the joke, but everything else was pretty okay

[We Miss You]

Hey I liked it.
It was short and sweet and to the point
Maybe a little off in the "sound sync" department, at the beginning of the cartoon
but hey its not terrible
maybe a bit too short for my taste
