CoolCatDaddio's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Gary's Headphones]

You should learn how to edit sounds, put in an effect or edit the fitness gram (or whatever that running shit was) so its sounds like its muffled and actually sounds like its coming from the headphones.
Give your cartoons more substance. This cartoon has nothing really going on and the punchline wasn't that good. Maybe add a couple a scenes where the other two character find out what he is listening to and react to it? I dont know just give something more that what you have already
also mouths dont move like that, give the mouth movment more frames so they dont go that fast

NoahJustNoah responds:

Hey thanks for the advice I'll be sure to try and learn from it.

[Game Grumps Animated - 9 Ball Island]

The artstyle is pretty bad color wise, expression wise.
the famliy guy-esque eye shapes dont give alot of expression to the character, all the work is done by the eyebrows and eyelids and they dont get the job done alone. Try to do a better job at drawing eye shapes and change them up with different expressions.
Some figure practice or any drawing practice in general will help you out a bunch, your line work is awful looking at the head shapes, the stiffness on the hair , perspective on the the table , and other various shapes lack any refinement. So just draw alot and try to improve
As for the color choices: they dont work together. Your choices are sometimes too saturated. I think the over saturation is the biggest problem, but im not 100% on color theory stuff, regardless you should study some of Ego's color choices when it came to backgrounds and such.
The character animations are kinda stiff, try giving them some frames to slow down before they come to a complete stop
I think you deserve some praise on Dan's hand movements at 0:25. They were a nice touch
anyway, hope you improve

JimToons responds:

Thanks for being constructive. I wish I had the time to make everything better but at least I know where to improve. Thanks!

[HELLEVATOR]

very creative, I like it.
One thing I dont like are tweens, not my thing. I feel like you over rely on them. Some of the tweens stood out on me such as the galaxy girl's arm rotating around and the ayyylien's head nodding. they didnt look too good to me.
Sounds like the audio clipped at 4:48, you should have had the voice actor redo that line or fixed it yourself
"And the quarter back is toast" was the only line in this video that I didn't like. kinda cringey to me.
The backgrounds look great, hope you make more animations of this quality.

[The Milk Incident]

I think some figure practice or any practice for drawing will help you out a bunch to smoothen out the rough edges in your drawings
I also think you should study color and color theories, some of your color choices and shading look very bad. Observe other cartoons and try to figure out how they pick out their colors and stuff.
the sound design is fucking obnoxious, dont have your cartoon silent for the majoity of the time with really quiet sound effects and then add in an really loud metal song at the end. That shit is jarring especially since I had the sound all the way up since I thought you fucked up the audio levels and had this cartoon to be super quiet.
I cant really tell what happened at the end? did he drink the milk? you should have animated him opening the carton if that was the case, make it clear what happened to your audience.
Cut the intro to be shorter, the video is'nt long enough to justify it

HugoW responds:

thanks for the feedback

[Remote Control Meme]

jesus christ, cut the intro to five seconds tops. No one cares about your generic ass intro template that you got off some website. Keep the intro's short and sweet and move on to the video.
The video isnt good either, its just a 7 second loop of a wolf "dancing" or whatever that is.

[FACETIME]

that sound the phones make is way too fucking loud, its even worse thats its a screeching sound
practice drawing facial expressions and proportions.
you should have made the phones ring or some shit, having the girl say "shut up, its ringing" and then being followed by silence is pretty bad.
the explosion sound does not match the phone breaking
Learn to mix audio better, thats the thing that I hope you take away the most. That jarring sound is not good, its fucking annoying

[Undertale - Megalovania (Electro - Remix) & Sans Boss Fight]

first off, cut the intros and outros down to at least 5 seconds preferably less. No one wants to see your cookie cutter cut and past generic as intro's

second of all: what is this? is the subject matter primarily the audio? post this in the audio section, no one cares about the gameplay accompanying it.

[Advice for Nintendo]

cut the intro shorter
I really dont feel like videos like this belong on newgrounds. This is more of a youtube kinda thing
anyway, you dont have the voice for these kinds of videos. You slur and fumble your words, there are a lot of redundancies
"why is this multi billion dollar gaming business fucking up badly or fucked up.. so badlyin the few years"
you cut yourself off at 2:46
you really shouldn't put up pictures of game consoles if your just going to have it up for a split second
you say fucking too much, Im not a prune but, its pretty tastless when you swear too much
You didnt say anything profound, all I got was from your video was "all you need is a good story" and didnt go into any more detail except aesthetic which is stupidly vague. Take off the nostalgia goggles and put more thought into these kinds of videos

sonic354 responds:

Thank you for the solid criticism, I really appreciate it.

Although I can't really change my voice. I've gotten a little better on my slurs and fumling in my words.
Its just you do have to have good story when you have a game, because if there is just gameplay to back it up it may not be interesting enough to the consumer.

[Angry Video Game Nerd Theme Animated]

You should really take the time to practice drawing, I can appreciate some of the effort you put in, but the sub par drawings bring it down a notch or two
specifically in the human drawings.

[A Prank Time]

very well done, I can smell the facebook freebooting already.
but in all seriousness the animation is magnificent
