will-macey's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Animator vs. Animation]

Fucking awesome

The First 10 I've given in a review in a while. Great job man, great job. Very clever.

[Icons Ep 3]

Great job man!

I'm impressed with how far this has come along. This one is a bit different then the other episodes, this one uses less video games references than the others and seems to have taken a different turn, one that isn't bad, but I think you should review your last 2 episodes and make the 4th one similar to what you started out with.

Great, none-the-less

TheTreeman responds:

episode 4 is already written and mostly recorded. We kinda went in the direction of movies more than games just cuz we know more about movies than games...and the game thing is begining to be over done.....plus getting compared to decline didnt help either.

[S.M.B.3 Bloopers]

Haha

I laughed so hard at the begining of the big fish scene. I liked how you added the scary jaws type music to the big fish. Should've dragged it out a little longer, it was great. Well done here.

[weebl and bob - paper]

Im trying to be more than fair.

But this series isn't that good. I like your other one better, there is actually animation. These ones have smooth animation but you definately need it because the characers are just too simple to give them less then that. But the animations involved are less than appealing. You have a series, something I think everyone here wants to do. You have a website dedicated to it, another thing everyone wants for their work. So does Happy Tree Friends, Retarded Animal Babies and Ninjai...but the difference is they actually animate, are clever, and funny. A lot more effort clearly goes into those. Now, I give you credit for bringing something to the internet like Weebl and Bob, but it's getting old. Sorry, but please just work on On the Moon or something, because those are really good. I'm a little more forward and aggressive then I usually am with reviews, but please dont get me wrong, It's just constructive critisism.

[Charlie the Unicorn]

Absolutely Hysterical

I loved this, I must have watched it 5 times by now and each time I laugh out loud at the end. The animation was really different from normal stuff you see on NG, and the Voice Acting was just fantastic, some of the best I've ever seen. The perfect cartoon in a lot of ways. I know a lot of people were weirded out by the animation but it just goes to show you with a great idea and the weirdest animation styles blown to its very peak, you can make anything great. I demand more Unicorns like this from you as fast as possible.

[Tutorial 2 Simple Buttons]

This is really good.

You must've worked really hard on this, but unfortunately if someone doesn't know how to make a simple button in Flash then something is wrong. Besdies, they have the Help Index and other sources to get simple button tutorials. If it were me doing something like this, with this much work put into it, it should've been something other than Simple Buttons. Maybe some Basic actionscript techniques or something. It looks great but chances are nobodies gonna look for this tutorial when they have tutorials available right from the Flash Menu. An unfortunate waste of really really good work.

[The Killer's Game]

Looks awesome, but what a shame.

You definately tricked me, unfortunately I don't jump easily, which sucks for this movie, so I was dissapointed that it wasn't a full-short movie because it was looking interesting but then you had to end it so abruptly. This has never been done like this which is a good point, but for me, because your ending didn't work, I was very disapointed in this. But I will vote as fair as possible.

[Icons Ep 2]

Nice job dude.

This one was better than your first one. I enjoyed the "cocks in your eyeballs" comment as well, and the granny yelling "I'll swallow your soul" sounded kinda like "Follow your nose", which was most definately intentional. Only thing left now is to animate me in this shit, haha jk.

TheTreeman responds:

hate to say it, wasnt intentional. watch evil dead 2, for our reference point...ull enjoy that joke a whole lot more...Glad you enjoyed it

[Mortality]

Nice Job

However, I have some complaints, even though I don't expect you to care really lol. The music you used is overdone, however it kinda made this peice work out in the long run. Second, bc you are making something so serious, better voice acting is much needed, if you can put yourself in this situation yourself, close your eyes and speak into the Mic, you'll be surprised at the results. Lastly, the dialog was kinda akward. Again, put yourself into the situation and think of the characters personality. Think of what someone like him might say. A lot of work needs to go into the voices and dialog, but the artwork is top notch. Hopefully I'll see a Ch2.

[Bush Thinking]

I'll be honest

Well, I liked this. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. At first I liked this Idea about taking the radio skits and putting them in flash but honestly, It's getting real old, real quick. I wanna see some original stuff.
