amaterasu's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zelda: Tales of Legend]

Lots of potential

Its off to a good start, but i have two suggestions.

1. The loops for the background music eventually became annoying. Try putting in longer loops.

2. If the dark world guy was so powerful, why did he sit in a jail cell for so long? Try to explain in the plot the reason he couldn't escape right away. Perhaps the rift is emitting energy from the dark world which in turn gave him his powers back?

One thing

The animation is definatly well drawn, but what alot of people seem to be forgetting is content. what is it about? its good to be obscure but i think its possible to go too far. i watched the movie through, and had no clue what it was about. could you explain it to me?

AloneInTheDark responds:

Explaining each individual scene is a days work. Try to understand the central theme and relate it to what you see

[Jeremy.]

Very emotional

this is the closest a flash has ever gotten me to shedding a tear. absolutely amazing. the way the story goes in reverse is very powerful. my only advice is to cut out some of those scenes in between scenes that tell the story. i know that they all mean something but you get hit with them so fast and constantly that they just seem randomn. keep up the great work.

[Soxx: the killer bunny]

Bunnies again?

Amazing talent but seriously....the psychotic bunnies thing is getting old (Frank, Donnie Darko) and so is the dark cartoon thing (Invader Zim, Jonnie the Homicidal Maniac). Try putting your talent towards something fresh.

[Decline of Video Gaming 2]

quick comment

i love the family guy-style flashbacks. great humor. whens #3 coming?

[I miss you Daddy]

good effort, but...

the movie started out strong. as it went on, it became repetative. there wasn't really a climax or resolution, so it ended seeming like something simply to evoke sympathy. if that was your goal, than it worked but the monologue still became repetative. if you plan on remaking this perhaps you should add something where the character actually comes in contact with her father, or receives answers to her questions somehow. like a dream or ghost or something. great attempt though, i hand you that. younger viewers will love it but for older viewers, it doesn't quite cut it. great attempt though man. i'm not bashing your movie.

[Lambi 2]

needs work

I couldn't finish it. The graphics were nice but were sluggish and awkward, and the loops that you put in it were nice but the way they looped got pretty annoying. I respect that you spent alot of time on this but for it to be a hit it needs work.

[Life of a Teen Band]

hmm

i know you worked hard on this and the style is unique yet rough, this just wasn't funny at all. perhaps you included too many of your band's inside jokes?
