Anonymous-Frog's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lily's 20K Celebration!]

There’s very few pieces of animation, only the confetti, the wink, and the “20k”.

Rocky-Ace responds:

It's two eye frames for the wink and don't forget the 20k on her thigh 😉

[Healer FOUR 🔔💪]

Slow down:

This seems pretty rushed.

[Short Short Fest 2023 Official Recap Video]

Few bits of description stuff:
You misspelled "festured", and you have some artists (ie. Ian Newton) listed more than once.

Just so you know, I'm reviewing, writing a review in the review space, for this submissions, a movie you posted publicly on the Newgrounds Movie Portal, a space intended for animation, ie. things that move.

These "test episodes" as you called them in the previous review, are very barebones, not just for NG standards. There isn't much animation, and there's zero audio (even though you've made music that would fit this genre).
You're saying you're posting these as a test, "to see how everyone would react". In that case, my two-cents is that I found it hard to get immersed for the above reasons.

People will give you low scores because a. they didn't enjoy the movie and/or b. they think the production sucks, and when they give you a review here, a lot of them will be honest, and some might be harsh. There might be a few that'll sugarcoat everything and say it's good when it's really not, and just because they say it's good, it doesn't and shouldn't discredit anyone that says otherwise, especially if they have a valid reason for it.

As a creator, a relatively new creator with practically zero following, you're just going to have to keep improving until you have something that most people would like.

If you want feedback, you can always go to the forums, create a thread, or go to the Review Request Club.

[Episode 2 - Victims]

Still garbage:
Just like the first episode: barely any work went into this, except now there's a black and white video of some grass. But mostly text and a few images.

devsnstuff responds:

At least I tried to make something. If you want to complain, you can, but nobody will care. Remember, it's just something on the internet. No need to complain over stupid things. The first few episodes suck for a reason. These are test episodes to see how everyone would react. The real ones will be much better.

Have a great day/night.

[Episode 1 - Report]

Put some effort into it next time:

This is just static text and a few images slapped together without sound. Don't try to pass this off as "analog horror".

[The World Economic Forum Comedy Night]

To be honest, I kinda expected more:

The Klaus Schwab caricature and impressions were nice, and the joke is "haha, he's unfunny"

The background and audience were AI generated, the only animation of note is Schwab himself, who looks like if he was animated by MeatCanyon if he had a stroke.

Overall, it's still a neat way of satirizing the WEF and its founder, much like some other political cartoons I've found by searching up "klaus schwab political cartoons" on Google Images, but it just seemed a bit disappointing that this is the movie we've been waiting 5 years for.

[UNDERTALE BLUE - Announcement Trailer]

You tagged this with "april-fools" Not only did you ruin the joke, you're also about 10 days later.

frukola responds:

I posted the prank in time on yt and twitter. i just wanted to repost it here to have all my animations in one place and tagged april fools to not mislead anyone because it's not april 1st anymore

[SHARKS WITH LEGS!]

Decent animation, nice aesthetic, but the music could be mixed a LOT better.

justanoval responds:

oh yes for sure, i am still early in the learning stages. this was my second song i've ever made. appreciate the feedback.
