TharosTheDragon's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tales of Zale - Episode 1]

Really spectacular work! I can't praise it enough. This is movie of the year material.

I just wanna let you know that the credits get hard to read when they scroll to the upper half, which has a lighter background.

[Anime Amigos 1: Miku-Chan]

When we see the ambulance going really fast, the people we see whizzing by are going in the wrong direction, making it look like the ambulance is going backwards.

RyanStorm responds:

I'm surprised it took someone this long to notice!
I actually left that in at the end, because I thought it looked funny.

[(notes on) biology]

How did you get the live action segments to look stop-motion? Was it just a slow frame rate?

Ogre-D, you're an idiot, both for wanting to force fabricated diversity and for underrating the effort that went into this video.

BCWiessner responds:

The 'live action' parts are also shot as photographs. We rehearse with the students to work on slow motion acting, then shot the opening sequence as still photography.

[Little Mac for Extreme Gl]

The OP'ed Little Mac controversy seemed to be happening last year. Was there a sudden resurgence in popularity of Little Mac? Or was it just coincidence that two Little Mac cartoons came out within three days of each other?

[A Bag of Cats Ate my Face]

It's about twice as long as it needs to be. Not a lot of content. Not a lot of variety in the lyrics or music.

CyanSandwich responds:

I kind of agree with you there. The only reason I left it this long was because it seemed too short, and I already told people my next cartoon would be 2 mins.

[Your Typical Rock Concert]

So I went to a concert with a girl and she cued me in on everything to expect, much like this video does. However, everything she told me was wrong. I was expecting to get squished together with a bunch of people in a human sandwich, but everyone seemed content to act like civilized people and stay outside of each other's personal bubbles. And it was a metal concert. I think the two of us and two others were the only people even in makeup.

[Turnip Prices]

Is this a reference to something? I don't get it.

[Vitaman VS Candy Kid]

Reminds me of Brave Little Toaster.

[They Live]

So sad. :(

[Tales from the Crossing]

Was this inspired by Conan O'Brien?

skylegend01 responds:

It honestly wasn't I've always thought the villager was a creepy mofo and since the memes began of how evil he actually was I decided to animate something based on that. I did think the conan clip was hilarious though.
