KalinR's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cranimon]

don't see the point

what was that about? I don't get it. A takeoff on pokimon or something? It would be neat if you could turn it into some sort of game? I'd like a lot better if there was some sort of message.

why care about spelling?

As a person who has written five books, I'll tell ya'll that ya shouldn't make such a big deal about spelling. Yu cann still tel wat Imm trieing to saye.
Language is about communication, not technicalities and details. I could understand what the animation was trying to say just fine and that's what's important... on the other hand, I must admit I use a spellcheck myself cuz it takes like 10 seconds... I just find it funny that that's everybody's beef with it.
but at the same time, the animation wasn't very creative or original.

Sorlag responds:

Well im very impressed with myself :) just found my account again.

Yay sewage!

ya sewage dumping is a serious problem in our society; glad someone's trying to say something about it. I can't believe some people would blam this cartoon. It's funnier than a lot of other cartoons I've seen here, though certainly was not a laugh fest. People need to remember that these flash movies shouldn't all be about humor and killing people in the most bloody way possible. I want to see more that have an ethical message to them like this one.

awesome message and animation...

but I couldn't hear any sound. don't know maybe it's cuz i'm using mozilla. I hear a quick blip at the beginning, then silence. good animation though, smooth flow

[Only Superhuman]

love the different perspective

It's good to think about what god thinks about, and how silly humans really are and try to see things from His perspective.

[Kindergarten Cop 2]

wasn't expecting it to be that funny

It was short but it was funny. Your voice at the beginning was cheezy and it took a bit too long to introduce such a short film, but that seems to be a common problem I see around newgrounds. You could shorten that or do a better voice. The schwarzenegger impersonation was great though and the dialog was what made it really funny.

[Fitter. Happier.]

I've always wondered about that track...

I heard that Steven Hawking did the voice on the Pink Floyd Division Bell album, but I dont' think that was him on the Radiohead album. I felt you captured the mood quite well. I didn't understand the killing of the woman... maybe you're showing how ordinary, boring life can drive a boring, normal person to do psychotic things?
The first time I watched it, it froze up near the beginning, but that could have been a prob on my end.

[The War on Terror]

Clear and straightforward logic

I sure wish more people thought like you, and could articulate in words that well, and actually stopped to think about world events in such a logical manner. It's really too bad that stuff like this with a real message doesn't get more of a chance at newgrounds just because it doesn't have enough blood and guts in it.

[Tire of Obesity?]

finally something that makes a point

though it wasn't too tremendously entertaining. the idea was good but it could have been done a lot cleaner and funnier, maybe with a comically fat dude with rolls of fat, who slowly grows fatter, with maybe more of a punch to when he tells him to get up and do something with a "well duh" attitude. But I like the message, wish more animations here had a point to them. Someone told me that atkins is dead now of heart disease or something; wonder if that's just a rumor.
