HarlequindeRustre's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flecko]

The thing that makes me vote this high...

... is the whimsy. Jeez, talk about your light humor.

It's not exceptionally complicated or deep, but it's nice, and very relateable to teens and preteens. Hell, I can find me in this...

... I reading too far into stuff again, aren't I?

Oh, well. Good luck for the times to come, dude...

[Aladdin 3150]

One, good sir,....

That was certainly the best futuristic redux of a classic tale, hands down, no lies, I kid you not. The animation lags... yeah, there were some, but it also gave a sort of expectancy, lent a shabby,undertoned quality to it. I daresay that the visuals went well with the vision, and I hope to see some kind of achievement just like this one somewhere in the nearest future...

Two, I know the feeling of such heart-rending loss; in games... in movies(watching them, dude. I remember watching Joan of Arc's ending and bawling my eyes out for about tens minutes after the credits stopped rolling)... romance... When you pour your heart and soul into something, then get it raked over a bed of coals and into the dirt, it feels like a pulling hole in your chest, and you want to pound and pound and pound and pound and POUND something until the hurt peters away.... Ugh, yes, I know the feeling very personally...

Three, I will quote you some very beautiful pieces of artistic wisdom:

"It is only by drawing often, drawing everything, drawing incessantly, that one fine day you discover to your surprise that you have rendered something in its true character" - Camille Pissarro

"Go on working, freely and furiously, you will make progress" -Paul Gauguin

and, most importantly:

"Whether you succeed or not is irrelevant, there is no such thing; making your unknown known is the important thing." - Georgia O'Keefe

So keep on jogging, and fight the good fight, and doodle away on your computer and make a masterpiece for all the world to see (yeahsure I'm getting a bit too grand about this-- oh, shoosh it's the thought that counts, you... you... person)...

Fourth, I wish you the very, very best, so go out and sweep those leets right off their feet and wow the crowds.

Fifth: Drink espresso; it's got even MOAR caffeine in it!!! :3

Thank you for spending your time reading this cute piece of fluffy consideration.

Sincerely,

Harlequin de Rustre, the Jester of the Clown

"I dont even know why the heck im reviewing it"

Precisely.

Now, every flash game/movie/yourmotherblams is it's own flavor/kind/color/typeset of pointlessness, but there are some jewels that stick out and are more economically saddening than its fellow pieces of loserdom.

And this is where this particular steaming load comes in. Sure it's a spoof, but the humor loses its consistency and value about halfway through.

Now, I could say this should be blammed to the deepest depths of inf3rn41 int3rn37 n00b h311, but I don't really see the need. I'm trying to convey a point here, and I'm sure you'll ignore it to the least of your ability, but it's the sentiment that appears to count.

My point is: put more mental effort into these "masterpieces" so we can actually enjoy something of more-than-intrensic value from you and your people(whoever they are).

And, no, I'm not some "fake sophisticallated pervo-junior". Was bored out of my mind. Surfed the net. Clicked on random crap. Repeat. Then thought about it. Then clicked some more. Repeat.

So, yeah; my review is prolly made of the same amount of fail as the above flash. I really hope you improve... seriously.

[McCain's Sexy Outrage]

Ugh...

This video is tasteless and disgusting and low on any entertainment value.

I have seen this calibur of animation before, and it has always been seen in videos that have been blammed and poorly rated. The only this setting this apart from those is the doubtful insulting of a former presidential candidate in a rather infantile and lewd way.

Not only that, but this will give anyone with even a hint of epilepsy a seizure, you sick bastard.

On the concept base of things, I suggest you watch a few highbrow comedies and some classic comedies(read some, too(SHAKESPEARE!!)) for some better and incredibly effective material. This gig of just sticking some celebrity's face next to a pair of hands holding a picture of a person tearing open his/her ***hole ain't exactly what people with any ounce of a gag reflex wants to see on any day.

For animation: practice, practice, practice. And I mean things like drawing-up backgrounds(as I mentioned epilepsy somewhere in this...) and making smooth character animations (W00!; F1IPPING 4 PIC7URR!-- HELL NO!) and actual character creation (not just fugly pictures taken to ruin better eyes...).

After that, all I can say to improve is to vote Republican... kidding... just a little.

Please, for the love of God, don't take this wrong.

Sincerely,

Harlequin de Rustre

[Suck or Blow?]

Nice...

I can't say whether this should be stand alone or not. Either way, this movie is pretty damn funny.

If you make something outta this, I'm sure the rest of us will appreciate it. Making a series (seasonal or otherwise) would make this an internet icon, for sure.

On the constructive side, the flash has a great sense of timing, the colors and shading are pretty grand-spanking awesome for flash(and a fast job). The voice-acting is pretty cool too(you and that other guy were really into it, which pretty much made teh movie, in and of itself). The only suggestion I have beyond above is some sort of interesting loading screen and/or replay screen.

Hope this helps! Have a Happy Hallowe'en!

Gate-keeper-girl responds:

Dude, you're my hero.

I could totally make a series outta this, but I don't know where to start with something like that.

Hmm.

After my next work, I'll think about it.

[The Creation of High Art]

Not the most intelligent argument...

But it works. The end statement made the most sense, really. However, if it doesn't appeal to you as a whole, it doesn't mean it isn't art. It just means it isn't art-- to YOU. That's the major flaw, really. Other people would try to broaden their argument from where I left off, but I'm not other people. Good luck to you... and make some actual entertainment in future...

[at home with kisame]

Nice...sorta

Too bad it was short. The animation is spot-on, and the humor is nice. However, the movie short was only about a minute and a half. That's the only downside, really...

[Akatsuki Game Night!]

Hi-Fukkin'-Larious

Good job. Smooth animation, nice music, good humor... Fantastic. Good job. Both thumbs up.

Here's a suggestion: make an extensive flash game. I'm sure many would enjoy it...
