ProsciuttoMan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[BLACK SUNSHINE]

You are undeniably one of the most talented animators on NG, but this just ain't it chief.
I usually find race jokes funny, but this cartoon is literally just two stereotypes existing. There's nothing beyond that, leading the whole thing to feel kinda lame and uninteresting.

[Romeo VS Tybalt]

Damn, I was expecting this to suck, but it actually wasn't half bad.
Animation is a little amateurish sure, but the comedy is pretty on point, and the audio quality was surprisingly good.
I can't wait to see what you do in the future!

StupidProductions08 responds:

Thanks. I do be trying to get better at animation 🗿

[Newgrounds Redux: Metal Gear Awesome 3]

I mean, objectively everything about this is good: clean animation and the like, but I struggle to understand how this is a Metal Gear parody at all.
There's an earlier review that summarizes my thoughts pretty well: Newgrounds these days is so bogged down by its own self-obsession that nobody is trying anything new, and that really hurts this particular film a lot: for a film called Metal Gear Awesome 3, the only gag related to Metal Gear in the whole thing was a post-credits scene!
Every other joke is reliant on the audience being familiar with Newgrounds stuff. I laughed at some of it sure, but I doubt I would get much out of this if I weren't familiar with Tankmen, Alien Hominid, and Madness. Even then, I feel like most of the laughs came from just recognizing things rather than from genuinely finding any of it funny: the only one I remember is the blood splatter forming two guys having butt sex which is admittedly kinda funny, but nothing else springs to mind.
In the end, it's basically a glorified Newgrounds commercial: it doesn't do anything new (or even try for that matter) or interesting with the source material.
It's basically a well-animated parody of a parody, when it had the opportunity to be so much more than that.

[Rock The Dragon Animation Jam]

Damn, it's been so long since Egoraptor was involved with anything and somehow his style is still sharp as ever. Such a shame he fell off so hard.

[JohnnyUtah's Abusive Husband]

Reminded me of my favorite school shooting game: Penis Cool on GlueTowns.
Happy Penis Gay!

[Trump vs Judge ( The Erica Crooks Show ( 2024 ) )]

Trump parodies are so fucking overdone, at least find a way to be original about it: these jokes seem copy-pasted from every other parody you see about the guy. Nothing new is being said, and the visuals don't really substitute the bland delivery of the film.
At least try to make some new observations or something, because this is just painfully average.

[Sonic's Schoolhouse Anti-Piracy Screen]

Several years too late.

HorseFolder responds:

never too late to be funny

[How Darnell Saved Kwanzaa]

I'll tell you all about Kwanza my brotha!

[MADNESS: Operation X.]

As much as people love to hate Anonymous-Frog, this wasn't half bad.
Some strong backgrounds, funny action scenes and set-pieces, as well as fairly strong pacing make this a fun film.
As far as my criticisms are concerned: some of the film's editing leads to some confusion at times (the part where it jump cuts from the guy on the top of the elevator shaft to the guy in a prison cell, for example).
Also, maybe this is just me but I feel like the whole Elon Musk Twitter thing is kind of a dead meme. The whole "Twitter sucks, Newgrounds is paradise" schtick has been done ad nauseum: I feel like it could've been done in a much more interesting way than is presented here.
