NekoMika's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Portal Hoppin']

Excellent piece

Is it me or did you just completely make me want to watch the Venture Brothers again? That is what the art and storyline style here seemed a lot like. Tom sounded a bit like Hank Venture too which was funny. Sad how Pico turned on Tom and the staff at the end even though they were simply running away from some flashes of some kind.

The animation was over the top here so that was an excellent thing the whole way. The voice action was nice and seemed close to the venture brothers too. Liked how Bob had a random bear and then Tom got shot in the ass by Pico, how sad. Then at the hospital he gets dynamite up the ass from Pico as well.

The choice of music used here was good and played with an excellent time as well. Funny how Stamper and Johnny never took anything serious the whole and the portal scene was also pretty funny when they entered different portal spots hiding out.

The storyline was excellent and I enjoyed it.

Overall, great collab for Pico Day. :D

[Pico vs. The Jocks]

Too short

I really enjoyed this piece except it was far too short and a lot of it was left out here too sadly. It would have been cool if you had done the whole thing rather than making us have to wait until next year sadly. I found this to be very nicely animated though.

Storyline is kind of short and the jocks just decide to beat up Pico for no reason at all which is kind of stupid since they hurt each other instead while Pico gets the better of them too. The voice acting at start was good anyways. The music was also good I suppose.

Overall, good but too short.

[Pico's Destiny]

Brilliance

This was a good thing celebrating Pico day and I found to be funny as well. Nicely done. This piece is kind of funny since Tom time travels to 1999 to screw with Pico and Casandra's heads a bit.

The animation and storyline was very here. The animation looks like it took a couple of weeks. The storyline was well thought out as well here. I enjoyed the voice acting, each person did well, would have been kind of cool if Casandra transformed before Darnell burned them to death.

Overall, good Pico Day tribute.

SurrealStage responds:

Thank you for your review and kind words! Transformation would have indeed been cool, now that you mention it. Perhaps if I participate another year I'll incorporate it.

[Pico in Wonderland]

Short and trippy

Nice little animation actually. No real plot aside from Pico falling into a pitfall and dying I guess. Wonder why Tankman was tripping as well. This actually went from an animation to an fbf to ending as a flash which seemed to be a nice little way of going with it anyways so that was nice as well.

The animation was really solid and cool looking even the trippy parts were cool looking. The music was nice and kind of makes you feel happy too. No real storyline aside from don't do drugs since they can lead you to your death.

Overall, nicely done.

[Mario slayer the return]

Decent

Although I don't watch too many sprite flashes since I don't see them often. I remember when users would work as large teams and put a lot of effort into making a great flash sprite game or movie and they tended to get awards on the front page for the hard earned effort. Been a long time since then, glad to see users like you still work with sprites.

Animation was pretty great here I guess with the fire, explosions, and video game cross overs that kept happening. Would have been cool if you spent a little more time and gave Zero a new name and color scheme along with a couple of unique attacks and such. The ability to choose an ending was nice too.

The sounds used here were all pretty fitting and seemed to go with the flow. Also the sound effects used give a good amount of life to the animation which makes it better than some of the cruddier and more silent sprite animation where the author spends little time working on one.

Overall, turned out alright.

Figter responds:

Thanks, the sprite usage is kind of fadig away it seems.

I get alot of points about the zero thingy, yeah it was the first time i worked with more "advanced" sprites and editing zero to make it more unique is a resonable idea!

Thank you SCTE3.

[Purple Monkey Dishwasher]

Alright I suppose

To be honest I have never understood why clock crew members prefer to use speakonia over a real voice. With real voices you can draw out a lot more dramatic and funny effects and say a lot of things in funny ways. This animation was just real short in my opinion though. The song seemed alright though however I do not listen to much rap/hip hop as it is not a genre I really care about.

The backgrounds used were cool I guess. The little story didn't make much sense to me though. Care to elaborate on it? I guess that this little thing was kind of funny since the Iron Man head was destroyed a by a simply philly cheesesteak sub.

Overall, funny I guess.

the story is me>Sarezjay ad Philly>New York. Sarez admits this is all true as well.

[MvC3: Dante]

Hilarious

I enjoy how it starts off with Dante getting ready to tell people why they should buy Marvel vs. Capcom 3 but then Morrigan comes in and steals the show. Enjoyed how she went around and just trying to talk to the others mostly because she grew up wit ha boring life until the events of Darkstalker. Funny how she just laughs at how some of them look while she tries to befriend others yet fails because she comes at the wrong times to speak with them. Oh well. She's a pretty cool character along with Albert, Jill, and Ryu, but that is just my opinion there.

The animation was very sweetly done here as have the other MvC3 flashes put here. The preloader is also quite interesting. Whoever did the voice acting for Morrigan did an excellent job. She just seemed to be really getting into it as well since she did a lot of nice little giggles and joking around with other characters from the game. I wonder how she would have behaved around Galactus.

Overall, excellent job. Will be sure to buy the game.

[A SlapHappy Quickie #11]

Was cool anyways

The preloader was simple as almost always is. The animation itself seemed a bit random but hey, not every flash needs a plot line with good animation to be a piece of art. Several artists got front page despite their flash not always having a real plot to them at all. This little animation is no real exception since it still fits into the random comedy section anyways.

The animation seemed to look alright here so not bad for only working on this for an hour. What caused that sea creature to blow up at the start if I can ask you that? That part seemed awkwardly funny in a way. Then you had the friends talking and apparently the gift was a fish that makes completely random sounds.

Overall, was humorous even though it was random and the such.
