JMShearer's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[SMB: Game Over (1up)]

A rare thing

I don't vote five on many things, but this is one of the rare ones where I did! Good work! I really enjoyed the humor in that! Really funny, man. And like you said in your notes, I really hope that was rain, if only for the sake of Luigi and Bowser.

[A Horse with No Name]

Definately worth it to finisn and resubmit.

Evil1by1 is right, definately a video worth finishing and resubmitting.

TheDread responds:

Ill try

[Love and Crappiness]

Yes, now!

Ah, the joys of the comercial holidays, yes? Quite enjoyed the flash, guys. Most of all, probably because it reminded me of why I haven't celebrated V-Day since gradeschool.

heh k

[Idoll]

Exellent work!

I gotta say, pretty damned good for your first time out with this, especially if that's all your own art there. At that level, you might actually have a career in animation. Good work!

hunter1410 responds:

thanks buddy!!!! yes everything is my own artwork, some guys have wonder if those are my draws or if i just copy pasted them from other sources, so i must say that those are mine, i don´t copy because i don´t think there´d be any value in just stealing somebody else artwork. thanks for your comments!!!

[Guitar Heroes]

Best in a while.

That was one of the best animations I've seen in a while. You're the first person I can think of who's used classical musinc in a flash here. Maybe it's because Uematsu draws from it for inspiration, or maybe I've been listening to too much Final Fantasy battle music lately, but I half expected the little blue guy to play a victory fanfare at the end. Overall, though, still a very cool flash, dude!

[The Purple Rose of Skaro]

Must have seen it on your site.

I must have seen this one on your site when you first released it or something, because I got a serious sense of Deja Vu from seeing it here. But I'm still glad it's here because it was excellent both times. The really great thing about this one is that it works even though we never get to see an incarnation of the Doctor, which is pretty cool in and of itself.

[Final Fantasy Jailbreak 1]

Definately worth the wait.

I remember Final Fantasy Day Care and how good that was. With that in mind, I'm glad you're doing a sequel. From the looks of things, your Jailbreak series will be just as good as the original.

[How far have we come?]

Two things, really.

First off, your question about "When will they learn...?" Who do you mean by "they"? The US public? The terrorists? Any political leater involved in this? There are so many people that "they" could be.

And then, how far have we come? Well, to paraphraze Star Trek Generations, I'd have to say it's been all engines full reverse the last few years, but that's just my opinion.

[Fall Of Nintendo]

Painfully slow

It looks like you've got a good story there, which is good, but truth be told, the pacing of it was painfully slow. Plus, the dark-on-dark fonts didn't really help much, considering that the only audio was music. Might want to at least change the font colors on all that text so it doesn't blend with the background.

[FPS In Real Life]

Filed under: Take Note...

Well, I gotta agree with Patriotical HatDog on this. That was very well done, especially with a camcorder. I haven't seen the second one yet, but I would hope it's just as good as this. I've filed this one in my "Take Note" files as on that should be taken note of, should I ever start doing my own flash and want to do one using a video camera.
