Long-Pubes's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[8-bit Theater 1]

How does everybody love this?

I don't get why this is such a popular movie. The comic it's based on is a pretty sweet comic, but this flash is just poor. Good sprite work, but the recorded voices got really annoying, as they were low quality and every once in a while there would be a huge fuzzy noize. It would be funnier if it just had text to explain what they were saying, because the voices used in the flash, in my opinion, didn't match the characters that well, and they really got annoying, especially the black mage's. The only actual funny part I can think of was the "eclipse" part. The intro was pretty cool though. This flash could be alot better, but it's ok.

[Dragon Ball Infinite::Pre]

Too sweet

I'm not really into DBZ anymore, but that was a sweet video. So much hand drawn crap, the music was sweet, and it had a great storyline. Keep up the good work!

[River City Ransom: REDUX2]

Great work

I loved this movie as well as the first one. River City Ransom is one of the best things to base flashes on, and you did it perfectly. Taking it to a whole new level with the energy beams and such made it more interesting, like a special improved version of the original RCR fighting styles. If nobody else notices, this guy not only ripped the sprites from the game, but every gang member (bosses not included) were custom sprites, not direct rips. That means he took the time to make it that much better. I rip sprites myself, including TONS of RCR sprites, which can be found at my site, www.geocities.com/eight_ball_comics, but as I write this, Geocities is down, and has been for a while so I don't know if the site will work. But anyway, great movie, and I definetly hope you make more.

[America's Justice]

Good job

This was a good deception of how war effects life. America never should have started the war with Iraq for no reason. There was no real proof of weapons of mass destruction at the time, and Iraq had done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to us. Everyone's going on, saying "Well they were killing the innocent Iraqis." What these people don't get is that the government went to war without a majority of citizens wanting to. Most Citizens of the U.S. were against the war at the time, and the President ignored that and declared war. This is the land of the free and Americans can't even vote on war.

[The Sad Skater (updated)]

Please stop doing this

I've been looking at your flash movies, and I must say that I do appreciate the fact that you're making serious, sad films about emotional things and such. I seriously respect it. But man, don't you ever wonder if this stuff is getting boring, showing the same ideas over and over? I've watched about 5 of your films so far, and 3 of them were about somebody being depressed about a girlfriend dying. The stuff is kind of corny, showing words saying "I love you" and things like that. I'm a skater, and I think that you shouldn't have made this based on a skater. I know the main idea of the movie, that skaters have feelings too, but man, if people are gonna bash skaters, they're going to do it anyway. Everyone knows that every class of people in the world has feelings, but that doesn't stop people from being racist. Showing a big skate scene in the movie made it worse. I don't know what everybody else thought, but when I saw that, it shouted out to me "Hey! If you don't like the emotional stuff, here's a skate scene!!!" It didn't go well with the music at all (the skate scene). I appreciate that you're showing that us skaters have feelings, but people already know that. I'm completely fine with getting the occasional "dirty skater" or "skater goth" because I know that the person is just a fucking moron trying to keep his own good reputation. Mostly preps bash skaters, so we bash them back, because we have more of a right to complain anyway. Let this be a lesson to all the preps out there who bash skaters, because I hope you know that we have the talent to do it and you don't. The only thing the preps do have is their shitty reputation. Sorry for getting off the subject there, but I had to get that out of my system. I feel better now. Anyway, please try making new kinds of flashes. This probably took a really long time to make, because it looks rather nice. Sorry if I've insulted you somewhere in here, good luck with your flashes.

Affinitia responds:

if that wasn't the most steriotypical review i've ever read i don't know what is... and dude, what if i had a girlfriend and she died of cancer? you have no idea who i am, or where i'm at in life, and you're sitting over there, stating all these mis interpritations and pointless opinions about something that came truly from my heart... i am sorry if you don't like it, i didn't make this movie for everybody... sometimes i have to make a few movies based on the same thing from different points of view to stop it from hurting so bad, so i can better understand why things happen... because they all happen for a reason... i never made flash to impress people, i just make it cuz it is a resonable way to express my feelings, and i am so sorry if i bored you with my movies... but if you don't understand them.. please don't watch them, i would hate to be wasting your time... thanks for the respect and all, but seriously, don't criticize this to my face, it still hurts a lot to even think about the reason i made this movie... and all those other sad films... i dont like to watch them, cuz i am the direct source of which they came, and i know why i made them, and it hurts... so please, don't remind me... i know i suck anyway, you don't need to tell me.

[Poop in the butt]

Oh my god...

Jesus that was funny. It's great to see some comedy out of your flashes instead of the usual sad and dark films you make, which I really don't like. At all. But this was funny as crap. "Poop in the Butt" is one of the funniest phrases ever. Don't get me wrong, your other flashes are good too, I just don't particularly have an interest for them. GOD this was funny. The fact that the art wasn't good made it so much funnier. Thanks for making my morning brighter. That left a smile.

[That over-eating Kirby!]

I don't care what other people say

God, some people here on Newgrounds are so stupid. They put down hateful reviews for people's movies that won't help them at all, and a lot of them make shitty movies themselves! This movie was ok. I'm not going to say it was that funny, but I'm also NOT going to go and say "Oh, that was so gay, gay gay gay. That suckd man go 2 hell" and crap like that. Making shorts like this is how huge sites like VGDC started out. He made shorts that weren't that great, and now he makes the best video game parodies. When people say in their reviews "dont send in crap like this NE more", it doesn't help out the person at all.
