Haggard's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bahamut's Fav. Reviews]

\m/

Nicely done. I liked how you sometimes added various charaters here and there (like Afro_Stud in that thought bubble and Casualty standing there playing his guitar). That gives the viewer something to look at... well something other than just a moving pointer and a dragon standing at a table. :P

You picked some very good reviews and I like your comments on them. Especially the one for the RebeccaRose-review. ^^

I'm glad that some of my reviews are in your "other 160 favorite reviews". :)

Oh, and that "Stop Music" button on that part of the flash? Take it out, it's not neccessary! NO ONE will stop the great sounds of the Fiddle-De-Chocobo! ;)

I don't want people to throw their computers out of the window just because they couldn't get the music on this flash to stop. XP

[Graham Loves Goatse]

\m/

A nice flash, especially if one considers the fact that you only used two lines for Graham and that you made this flash just becaue you wanted to have those lines in a flash. Heh.

Nice and short with your usual humor and as usual very good voice acting on all charaters. But it's nothing too special. Just a short filler while we are all waiting for you to submit your 100th flash! :P

I can't believe I'm getting so close already.

[Edgar N' Locke 07]

\m/

I agree with Edgar here. The lyrics are somewhat silly (but hey, it's Powermetal. The lyrics are SUPPOSED to be silly in that genre! ;) ), but they sound pretty good.

But I have to disagree with what he said about their live performance. I saw Dragonforce live on Wacken '06 (or was it '05?) and I liked their show a lot. ;)

My favorite scenes here were the soldiers and Relm. The soldiers because there are quite a lot of people out there who think a band is cool just because they have a song featured in Guitar Hero.
And Relm because it fits nicely to the previous episode where Relm asked if Green Day was metal. So she apparantly still doesn't know what classifies as metal and what doesn't. :D

kinggila responds:

Yes, the lyrics are supposed to be silly, but people shouldn't take lyrics so seriously.

Also, let's hope Relm learns more about metal in the near future. ;)

[No Surprises, please.]

\m/

A very good visualisation of the song "No surprises". I like how you only used black and white colors, with some shades here and there. It's very simple, but highly effective.

Sometimes the flash could have used some more animations, but it works the way it is now.
I really like the ending. Everything becomes colorful and one thinks: "Hey, maybe it's not that bad after all..."

The prequel "No alarms" was a bit weaker than "No Surprises", and I have to admit that I didn't quite get what was going on there (especially the scene with the house and the two figures in it). But then again, some things are better left open for interpretation. ;)

["Pass The Axe" Collab]

\m/

This is a good theme for a collab and all of you did a good job.

Now, as natural in a collab there where some parts that didn't look as good as other parts. Some artists put a lot of effort into their drawings, while others just drew some stick figures. But overall it's a very good collab.

The song fits perfectly in here, nice choice! ;)

[Skate Something ep.1]

\m/

The board animations are decent and the sounds you used are quite good. Even though sometimes the sounds ended a tad bit too early (for example, when the stick man was grinding the rail).

Talking about the stick man: I didn't like his animations. He was too stiff during the movie. He should move a bit up and down while he's skating, as if he has to absorb unevennesses of the street.

I did like your choice of music. Icead Earth is one of my favorite bands! :)

All in all it's a nice movie for a beginner, you can easily improve from this one.
Even though there wasn't that much happening during the movie it did show some potential. Now that you learned the basics of flash, you should try for higher goals, like using a real character instead of a stick man. ;)

[Casualty in New York City]

\m/

Nice and short birthday flash. Sinatra made a guest appearance with his song "New York" here, which was a very nice addition.

But, can Casualty take over the world? I think there are many people in his way, it should be interesting how he gets rid of them (or how they get rid of him!)

Happy belated Birthday, Casualty!

Casualty's Guitar will destroy everyone and everything in his path.

[Afro_Stud - The Fairytale]

\m/

A very great flash. Nice in length and a very good story, too. The idea with the book is very nice, but 6,90 Pound is too expensive! :P

Anyways, I noticed some small errors: On the left poster (when Bahamut was standing in front of the door of the mall... or bookstore or whatever that was ;) ), the text nearly was too width for the text box. The ending letter of each line seemd to cross the outline of the poster.

Apart from that: Happy belated Birthday, Afro_Stud!

kinggila responds:

That text on the left was 'justified' and was supposed to be like that. :P

[The Apex Neurotic Society]

\m/

This is a very great flash! At first I thought: "Oh no, not another super big filesized, boring music video..." but then it got better and better the longer it played. Great work!

I like some of the photographs you've taken, and I also like how you manipulated some of them (like the guitar with the growing plants).

However, the ending of the flash is a bit of a let down, as it offers nothing but black text on a white background.
While this may be a good idea to get the message through (as there's nothing that could distract the viewer), I still think a better background (maybe the wall you used during the flash) would work better here.

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 08]

\m/

Hey, that was Dolly the party sheep there, right?

Um, I know that because... um... LOOK! A THREE HEADED MONKEY!

Now back to the review. Going to Wales after paying a short visit to England seems only logical, as those two places aren't that far away from each other. And a journy around the world should be too stressful. So, why not relax in Wales while you have the time to do so?

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

How appropriate. You fight like a cow.
