Warlord-of-Noodles's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Stocked and Locked]

Short succession of cartoon humor. It reminds me of Reboot (not that it feels antique, more their style of humor plus their style of 3d body-language) This works very well for like a premise to something. Pretty good for the time allotted. The times where things are "mechanical" is more likely a product of not having enough time to polish as the animation that was supposed to draw focus was fairly polished so good on ya.

WooleyWorld responds:

A very spot-on review.

[Stereotype: Irish]

Backdrops as usual are lovely. Shot's no longer feel as crowded(unless purposefully so for an unsettling feel, seemed pretty well placed to me). Don't be too scared to turn up Impact sound effects (Like the punches and throwing around) a bit. So ya really feel them fight scenes. Unless you were trying The No-sound-effects-strictly-music-stylistic-thing. That kinda has to be all or nothin' (limited to no talking). Beautiful step forward composition and over all animation wise.

WooleyWorld responds:

Sound effects were unfortunately an afterthought so you get this weird inbetween of music and action sounds... I'm not a fan.
The next animation should solve these issues... It's something I'm much more proud of and a much tighter scale...

Thank you for your feedback.

[Sex Hair II The Woolening]

You weird, weird, little man. Anywho Spider walk cycles are always a pill but transfer of weight is important (I know, it's easier to cheat, I've cheated... and kinda always regret it). Slow down and watch some spider vids it'll help iffin you don't want to cheat. It is hard to describe, but a good rhythm (Pauses for anticipation, quick succession of events, all with a beat) will display the jokes. Use that music. Animation is music in a visual format and you are a conductor. Never-the-less entertaining delve into the strange psyche that is daydreaming.

WooleyWorld responds:

You didn't know what you were voicing in, did you... :3

[DayZ: "Marathon Man"]

Your seawater is gorgeous, dollface. I like the color bacdrop choices too, they imply certain kinds of light now (if that makes any sense). Sound design feels a touch empty for the type of super-deformed Animated bits. You don't have to lay it on thick like ed, edd and eddy but maybe some abstract sound effects upon reactions or a touch of music sting will ad a punch to the humor. (Ignore this if you were going for that sort of atmosphere, I can see how it may be purposeful). Once again, your voicework is dry and funny and correct for the type of animation.

WooleyWorld responds:

I appreciate the review. Yeah I need to work on some of my sound effects.
I'm edging closer and closer to a nice, well rounded animation though. The next one, I think, will achieve this.

[Warlord ofTongue Twisters]

Funny stuff. And the gesticulation is very nice.

WooleyWorld responds:

Thanks, Warlord.

[If I Had One]

Congrats on the first, dollface. Admerably captures an artist's simultanious ostentation and low self esteem.

WooleyWorld responds:

You and your big words, missy.

[Robo-Tango]

hehe, it's funny cause it's so relatable. Good sense of rhythm.

WooleyWorld responds:

Life of an animator, amiright?

[PaperBagHeadMan - Ep. 2]

Tee hee

I like the Joke's timing. The rough style works I think, but you gotta really sell it with the Voice-work..... I like the nonchalant thing for the gag but it's almost too restrained too much of the time. (Let loose and just adjust your mic down if your blowing it out with a real yell). As for the visuals, Maybe try to very your blocking (Most of it was in Mid-shot off below the knee)

TheInsaneHatter responds:

Thanks, this has been very helpful =]

So really what you're saying is, just try to make it more casual? And possibly a few different camera angles?

I'll make sure to improve in the next episode ^_^

[V vs S: The Race]

Rock on

An absolute Gas. Animation's rough, but the retro gaming feel allows that to work to your advantage. Fudge with the timing of movements, maybe push the gaming thing even further, If I had to offer advice. But other than that, Class act, sugar. Love your cuts.

zlxq3000 responds:

Heh, why thank you. Yeah, the gaming thing was going to be pushed more in the next episode; the music was actually going to go hand-in-hand with what the video game theme of the next episode was going to be. This one works with it more or less, but the next episode was going to be kind of a direct reference to a specific game series, whereas this one was just them running around and Sonic music went with it.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[The Lady In White]

Oooo!

What a gloriously surreal piece!

Hildebrandt responds:

thx :)
