JackSmack's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Super Smart Man - Ep 1]

I can kinda tell what's happening here...

Yep.. You saw my tutorial. People are gonna get on you for this stuff... just slap my name in there with a thanks and you won't have any problems.

[Lam 3]

I liked it...

Well... this is a quality submission... though some on newgrounds would say HEY THAT'S JESUS TALK HOW DARE YOU!!! These are the same people who are giving CHRISTmas cartoons high scores... I see nothing wrong with people on newgrounds putting things like this up... Some people BELIEVE it is a good idea to put up a picture of someone getting stabbed... others put even more sick and twisted animations on here... and people complain so hypocriticaly about someone taking the OTHER EXTREME. To everyone who says This shouldn't be here I say THIS IS BETTER than alot of the things that come through the portal every day... and I think due to artistic merrit and design it deserves it's place... just like animations that are secular in nature.

Well... I guess that gives a little info about me out... yep I'm a christian... how bout them apples?
Jack.

Thanks! What a world where sick & twisted is okay but mention God and people get all upset :)

[Jungle Liberator]

Well I haven't seen a parody of one of those...

I can honestly Say I have not seen one of these before... but if it's a parody you should put alot more humor in it... you know like have them go through a gunbattle and then fix lunch or something... the problem here was you did too good of a job and I thought it was a real game demo... was just about as entertaining as watching the real thing... and honestly that doens't make great flash... but the idea is a good one.

[Homecoming (part 1)]

Not bad... much better quality!

I know I talked to you the last time I saw this... You did a much better job on the quality... I think that is about as good as you can expect... Anyway I liked it.. the pencil test is a little hard to see though... did you ever think of running over it in flash to pull it out more?

Anyway not bad... definately better.

[The Ho Down S.E.]

HEY! I recognize that explosion!

WOOOOHOOOO! I had to watch this a bunch but I like how you use the effect... I liked your cartoon too the beginning with the black was good... the coloring in was a bit choppy... would have been better to have the color kinda bubble in from his mouth but all in all a good effort.. you are the first person I've seen who has used my stuff... I know you drew it over again, good job! Worked great! thanks for watching my tutorial and good job here... pretty funny.

SirChadOfKent responds:

YES JACK IT IS YOUR EXPLOSION FROM YOU TUTORIAL I LEARNED A LOT FROM THEM KEEP THEM COMING

[The Cheese is Evil!]

This is pretty Cool... would like to see more.

Hey! THUMBS UP! Looks good, sounds good, Pretty funny and can't wait for more.

Just a few things bothered me. I wish the cheese was not just a circle... it looked more like a coaster than cheese... would be great to have a cheese BALL instead of a slice...

Cause in my opinion all Cheese balls are evil...

GOOD WORK... 4 of 5

Nicomics responds:

Very understandable... I actually had gone through different shapes before I realised A cheese Circle looked the best in the end...

Thanks!

[Evil tutorial]

Hey You did an audio tutorial...

I liked it sortof.. and trust me... there is ALWAYS room for a tutorial on newgrounds... I'm working on one right now that is coming along pretty well.. I did have a question for you the audio portion of MX is it the same as flash 5? cause I'm running flash 5 and I've picked up MX for about 15 min and got sick of it. Just wanting to know if There is some major difference in that part of the menu.

As far as your cartoon... I think you need to ease up on the gradiants... you really packed alot of info on the screen and the font was a little hard to read at times... You had some tangents with the font too... THAT made it very hard to tell which word was next for me...

I'm hoping you make it through the portal cause alot of people are begging for an audio tutorial.

Good luck.
Jack.

[FRG VIII (Season 2)]

I liked it. pretty well done!

I liked this it was done well... just a few problems that could be easily fixed... I can tell alot of work went into it. Though I would like to have the characters have a little perspective. like a 3/4 view. would be an improvement.

frontrow responds:

Thanks man!! You've got some great tutorials ^_^

[Alien-Predator]

HAHAHAHAHA!

I like this one! HAHAHAHAHA! I just wish we could have seen the "Couple" go on more romantic dates... would have been a blast seeing them have a family or something... But A+ just for the frolicking... made me laugh hard... wasn't expecting it.

[Ruhabs evil part 2]

Could see it getting better.

In the note it says it gets better as you go along... It could be alot better still but this is WAY better than most of the stuff that gets submitted. I liked it... but with some more animation skills I would have liked it ALOT more. also you have the music but your characters don't have any sound... I think that if the arm sucking part had an appropriate sound and other sound effects were added it would really maximize this animation's potential.
