Zoju's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Africa Dudes]

Sorry, but I barely wanted to watch this once, let alone three times. The drawings are high quality (except the ones from one artist, which is good value with a collaboration this big), but nothing else really is. Not the jokes (at least not consistently), not the animation (which is basically just the puppetheads bouncing to signal the viewer who is even talking), not even the voices. In some of the segments, the two dudes have the exact same voice. It also dragged out for too long. You should've been more selective with the jokes and make this with a more watchable length.
No disrespect to the artists, but this could've been better.

[The Men From Mars]

The hottest music video since Satisfaction.

[BIZARRE ADVENTURE TIME]

The whole thing could've used a little more inbetweens to make the action more fluid, but it was generally well done and it was fun to watch.

[NIghtmare]

The voice acting was kinda annoying with the continuous, mediocre yelling, but the art style and the designs made up for it very well.

[Villainy - The Meh Escape]

Even better than the first one. High quality work.

[Soul Mates - Job Slobs]

The animation quality was uneven, some parts are well done (soda scene) and some parts are noticably bad (see the guy getting his head smashed in with a baseball bat and the kicking of the car) which is odd, because the drawings themselves are fine, in general.
I have mixed feelings about the voice-acting. I don't know which is Colin and which is Greg, but the ghost's voice is way better than the voice of the living guy, both in sound quality and acting.
As for the story, it could've used some more real jokes and a little less pointless adult content; those parts looked out of place in this video that seemed to aim at a classic comedy feel.
My biggest problem is this: I don't get why one of the characters is a ghost.
There is no reason or consequence in the story for being a ghost, nobody even acknowledges it. He could've been a living guy the whole time and nothing would've changed, so it all seems kinda pointless.
Other than all this, it was entertaining and well done enough that I chuckled sometimes and watched it until the end.

3.5/5.

MartinLarson responds:

Uuuhm... This is an episode! There will be alot of consequences of Greg being a ghost in other episodes...

[Knife Song]

Not much to look at, but the voice was fitting, and the joke made me chuckle. You should fix the typos, though.

[AdventureTime Milkshak]

The idea is not bad, but the execution could've been better. I liked the cuts, although I think there were some too rapid cuts back and forth. Sometimes you could've stayed on a character (like Bubblegum singing and gesturing) instead of cutting away elsewhere right away.
The fact that there was no background to relate the characters to made these cuts even more confusing (on top of making the animation look kinda cheap)
Both the drawing and the animation quality was pretty uneven. I don't know why the singing Bubblegum near the end is so well done but the dancing Finn is so bad. I don't know why the crying Flame Princess at 00:16 is so well done and Rainacorn is so bad.
The lineart was also uneven. On top of mixing hand-drawn and computer-generated lines, the ones with the computer-lines looked very unnatural, because all line thicknesses were even. Try to play around with the variable line thickness and they would look much better, make them look more organic while still being precise (or stick with hand-drawn lines).
Some lines were also out of place, not ending where they should've ended (see Bubblegum's hair in the three-quarter view)
And lastly: I really liked that you took the time to lip-sync to the song properly, it looked nice.

I'm only going to give it two stars, but I'm sure you're on the way to improve.

[An Animation Revolution]

I'm giving it five stars. The animation is high quality, the voice acting is good as always, it's funny, and it makes a good point. Not sure what else could you want from a Flash animation and I can't think of anything that could drag the score down.
The butthurt from the little kids who gave this 0/5 stars just shows how much the point hit home.

Well done.
