magicsalt's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

['Kite']

a first?

Thank you for adding this! You show much skill here! Good and smooth animations, nice characters, beautiful glimpse into the girl's world. I really enjoyed watching. If your others are this good, I can't wait to see.

Pierson responds:

Thank you so much for commenting, means alot to read something so positive! I'll try get something else up! All the best

[The Between - Episode One]

The between -- undeniably good!

I really enjoy how you employ the mix of media in this. The backgrounds for the between world is brilliantly imaginative. You're quite the storyteller, too with good plot and clever comedy. This one gets top billing from me! As for you, I've checked out your other works and am continually impressed. I hope to see more works from you.

SensationalSoftware responds:

Thanks for the compliments, i really appreciate it. I've already started on the script for the next ep, it shouldn't be too long, I hope.

[Space Cash 1200]

A breath of rare, rawkin' coolness

You just don't see this sort of thing here much and, while that is a shame, it does make me appreciate these rare occasions when a gem like this shows up. Very nice.

grabbelfant responds:

Thanks!

[A Very Short Western]

They're everywhere....

...those darn drummer jokes! I really liked this--great animation and look, suspense, comedy--Very well done! I'll forward this one on to all my drummer friends.

Topdrawer responds:

Thanks, magicsalt.
It seems that a person either gets this joke and thinks it very funny or they don't see any humor in it at all. I'm not sure why that is, but I have noticed that every musician who sees it cracks up completely. Maybe thats a clue.

[Subliminal Messages pt.1]

parc siht edam uoy....??!?tahw

You have to be a pretty twisted individual to sit and listen to records backwards in the first place, let alone to invent diabolical sentences out of the sounds you hear. Personally, I don't hear any of that crap.... only little nuances that could be twisted to construe words by fearmongers to scare little children into thinking that everything is satanic. You really could do the same with anything, really...... Try doing the same with one of Hitler's pre-election speeches, or even an audio copy of a Billy Graham sermon. Subliminal............ !!shawgoh, tihslluB

Bi0Reaper responds:

Thats two people who dont hear them.. hmmm... one cant even speak proper english... "parc siht edam uoy....??!?tahw" There are no subliminal messages in hitlers speeches, but there are some interesting things in sermons...

[Roadside Philosophy]

fate freight

Fickle fortune fate brings...f*cked by freight. Ironic.... I think I should have known all along that the squirrels were in on it....

Flyborg responds:

The squirrels are your friends. Trust the squirrels. Pay no attention to them as they assemble horrable weapons of doom.

[Kupa's Comics: Reparation]

color lines

The joke wasn't funny, just because the granddaddy's slaves thing has been soooo overdone. Ben Folds even wrote a song about the subject, although with a twist....
Anyway, the animation lagged waaay behind the sound on this. My computer may have been bogged down on the dial-up, but I'd suggest setting the sound to stream if you didn't already. The voice acting wasn't horrible and the white guy sounded nerdy and right, but the black guy didn't sound black. Dude singing was funny anyway!! The skittles thing was good, too.

Not a bad attempt here--not great, but not bad.

KupaMan responds:

The audio is streamed and stuff. I didn't have any problems with the sound after I published it, but the sound and the mouths didn't match up as I was making it. I was worried that might happen to a few people. Sorry the black guy didn't sound... black. Considering I'm white and any black people that live near me hate me, I had to do it myself. The black guy voice I did for PYS was a lot better, but apparently joshing around with slavery is still not quite in the clear, so not many people on Newgrounds had it grace their eyes (or ears if I'm still talking about the voice).
