Leftovers's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bad Baby]

I'm stoned and that scared the shit outa me

in the best possible way. I haven't had enough for that to completely fuck me up, but plenty for me to find it weird yet amazing.

[Jerry]

Are you religious?

Or is the hell bit at the end for ironies sake? I felt it killed the tone somewhat. Still an incredible piece of storytelling though; loved the day by day format.

[The MAC & PC show]

@SysRq00

" If you're running a business, use a PC. If you're editing photos or producing music, get a Mac. It's that simple."

No it's not. You forgot to mention that if you like to play computer games (which was kinda the point of this flash), then you should probably get a pc.

Don't get me wrong, I like macs, but I also find games to be more "fun" than making a photo album.

[Shorts To Wear Pants To]

I spent the two days after I saw this listening to

every song on "Songs to wear pants to".

They're awesome. My favourites in this were probs the songs to wear pants to theme, and the renegade muffin (the art style in it was amazing, like seeing sound).

[Samurai Duelers League 1]

The speed that the fight went, and the story went

didn't bother me.

But in the fight, you seemed to sacrifice realistic physics for speed. The speed of the fight itself was fine, but the characters seemed to fall too fast, and there was a section when the main character jumped up and landed again, and the whole thing moved at one, ridiculously fast, speed. If a character jumps, no matter how absurd the jump is, they should start off fast on the way up, lose momentum, then fall and build up momentum on the way back down. It doesn't matter how fast you do all that, but that gradient in speed has to be visable, or atleast hinted at.

The animation itself was good, and I really liked the painting style, which was nice to see, if only for the fact that I haven't seen it done before.

Good luck with the sequel.

Manga-Otaku responds:

Hmmm...

Good call on that; I might've changed the easing from "0 Neutral" to something else.

Where exactly are you referring to?

[ScientLOLojyuuichi!!]

@ BreakingFaces

"I mean religions that are bigger like Christianity are creating problems"

I agree. But the difference is the people at the top of scientology don't actually believe the crap they're preaching. They started the religion for money. Whereas christians genuinely believe what they preach.

Anyway, the animation was awesome. Laughed alot. Partly coz I love satirical stuff, especially about religion. The style you used to animate cruise worked really well, especially the hand gestures. Made the crazy that bit easier to see. Looking forward to your next one.

[Valhalla Knights 2]

Definitely broken

Get the full version up. That was superb.

[Wii Are Sold Out]

I sympathise

I work at PC World in England. Same problem. Same possible solution...

[Boulevard of Broken Songs]

Bit too angsty for my liking.

I realise that you mentioned this in your comments, and that you don't believe it to be emo, but that doesn't automatically make it not emo. This was a collab, so obviously some parts would just have a serious theme, but I saw a decent amount there that were clearly just angsty pre-teens who think the world's out to get them. Not surprisingly, these were also the worst animated pieces of work.

It's always hard to rate a collab, because you have to try and find an average, and not rate the animation based on the best or the worst specifically. Overall, I'd say I liked it, but the score was definitely dragged down by mopey kids with limited animating ability.
