Paradox's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[[L*] Death Of KK 2]

Fuck the KK.

The L* are the shit.

Lucky Star is epic.

[Haruhi FUCK XXX]

You went too far this time, guys.

On the whole I like all of your flash.

Disrespecting Haruhi is something which doesn't fly past me very easily. Sorry, but this time, no. Maybe without the abyssmal music it could have scraped a review score of one, but this time it just doesn't cut it.

[Charlie the Unicorn 2]

Yay!

I've been waiting like, over a year for a sequel to the original, and from what I just saw it was definitely worth the wait. It was on par with the first, but since the first was so perfect anyway I wasn't expecting it could be much better, let alone would.

I notice a lot of the scenes were very familiar to the first, and pretty much the sets followed in the same order (apart from the short bridge seen), but it added to the humour, so I liked that. The banana song in this I felt wasn't as hilarious as the Candy Mountain song from the first, but it was still a funny, random song, so I liked it there nonetheless.

After watching the first, I obviously predicted the ending would result in Charlie being fooled once again, and I actually thought this ending was much, much better than the first.

Other than just the storyline and such, the graphics, animation, and OF COURSE the voice acting added to the brilliance of this sequel. I happened to notice the other two unicorns were more animated in this than they were in the first.

I really, really hope you get round to making a third. Since there's so many open opportunities to get in more great plots and such, I can't see why not. I just hope you're really that epic enough to make another sequel.

:D

[Madness Inundation]

Wow, I only noticed this today.

Once again I congratulate you on a good job, Krinkels. Your spectacular animation skills never cease to amaze me. I'm surprised I didn't actually notice there was another sequel until three days after it was actually released.

Although the plot seems to be kind of dying in my opinion, I get the impression Hank's finally dead, or at least is going to make some kind of epic comeback or something (I wouldn't be too surprised), but there's nothing bad about a Jesus-based episode. To be honest, the end of this episode could have been the end of the entire series anyway, I'm always a big fan of shitty endings like that, seriously. Nonetheless, I'm sure your brilliant plot schemes will somehow bring all of the characters back in fighting-form like you have managed to do seven times anyway. :)

Like I said before though, it does kind of seem like the plot is dying slowly but surely, so I wouldn't be particularly bothered if this series doesn't manage over nine thousand episodes, one or two more will probably suffice in my opinion. Unless Hank DOES make some sort of comeback, he, the main character, is pretty much kicked out of the entire storyline, and now there's some kind of secretive big bad guy where it turns out that Jesus is actually the good guy... not bad, but not good.

I suppose I'll have to wait and see what happens, then. Nonetheless, you did a flawless and fantastic job with the animation, and that's the one thing I, unlike most people, put above the level of violence in it. In my opinion, such spectacular animation kicks the crap out of extreme violence, but I suppose that's cool too.

I await a sequel.

[My New Grounds]

Such devotion to Newgrounds.

Wow, I didn't know anyone would have such devotion to this site as to make such a professionally-made tribute to the site. I loved how you twisted real video capturing with skillful animation, usually for most people it doesn't look good at all, but you did it really well, and even though this was shorter than I would have expected, I understand the effort that was put into this flash more than makes up for it.

But yeah, wow, I liked the concept behind this flash movie. I'd never actually thought about how I see Newgrounds, but I suppose it'd be pretty similar to yours, but with more forum-activity, but other than that, yeah, this flash even made me think a little. The animation was an inspirtation too, I've tried animating similar to how this was done, but it really came out pretty bad, but maybe I'd like to try it again sometime, when it comes out like this, it'd all be worth it.

So yeah, good job, I liked what you did with this idea.

[Phoenix Wright - 9000!]

Loved it.

Although I can't say much based on the flash's effort, the humour this flash provides more than makes up for it, so I loved it, even if it was very short. I guess I'm just a big fan of the 9000 meme.

The only thing I'd suggest is perhaps make a remix of the audio, and make it longer, and obviously, more hilarious. But apart from that, this short is good enough as it is, because the meme is one of my favourites.

Good job.

[Optical illusions 2 v2]

Pretty good.

Not too bad, I'd seen most of these before watching this interactive movie, but nonetheless, you did a pretty good job of compiling them. It also looked pretty nice what with the background, and you explained how each one worked in good English, so I'll give you good credit for making it look good.

I'm glad you didn't do the unoriginal and put a screamer "illusion" at the end. I was honestly expecting it. ;)

Good job.

Im not nasty like that i hate screamers. They just ruin the movies. Thanks for good review :)

[Final Fantasy: Big Bro]

Heh, the idea is what makes this flash best.

This movie was nothing short of brilliant, it was funny, and the idea was one of the best in any Final Fantasy flash I've seen on Newgrounds. If I could go back in time and prevent you from making this movie so I could do it myself, I definitely would. >:)

The only thing that downfalls this flash ever so slightly was the fact that a lot of the characters got voted out/were killed too quickly, and didn't really even have much of a point to them at all.

Nonetheless, it was a brilliant movie, and I love the idea, mainly because I hate Big Brother ever so much, so seeing a kind of mockery of it, even though it wasn't really a mockery, made it funnier for me.

Love it, the sequel's pretty good too, but I favour this one. Good job. :)

[Trouble in Paradise]

Hahaha.

I'm not quite sure i understand what it was I just watched, but it made me laugh. Aside from the fact that the 3D animation itself wasn't outstanding (I'm aware you used G-Mod), the laughs this movie somewhat produced got my review up to a seven.

The frame rate also seemed a bit weird and unusual. It's probably meant to be this way for added hilarity, I'm not sure, but if not, that's something I'd look in to.

Oh well, I still got quite a few laughs from this, whatever it was. :)

[Fighting stick]

Very good for a stick movie.

I'm not a big fan of stick movies, I usually shun them because to draw a stick doesn't take much effort, but occasionally I'm proved wrong when they're animated to look very professional, like you managed to do here.

Although I appreciate the style of animation you used suits sticks best, it's a bit of a shame really, because a lot of talent and effort was used in this movie. Otherwise, it is very good. Another problem is the length of the movie though, could have done with being a bit longer, and maybe having something of a real storyline.

But the animation really does bump it up to a seven. It was really good, and I know a lot of people (including myself) would love to have the talent you clearly possess.
