Squidems's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nyan Cat - Genre Hopping]

This is badass, both in terms of music and art/animation.
Nyan shot first!

[A Spot Of Paint]

The overall composition evoked memories of the classic golden age of animation, and the careful use of negative space in the staging was fantastic. You've clearly mastered the principals of animation and character design. The minimalist approach to sound design provides an excellent contrast to the busy and confusing world you've created for your characters. I found the story to be both heartwarming and inspiring, illustrating the true ingenuity and perseverance of the human spirit, reminding us all that solution to our many problems can be found within ourselves. I hope this film will continue to find an audience for generations to come, as it offers an unparalleled glimpse into the struggles and trials inherent in the human condition. As a concept and display of artistic talent, this piece stands head and shoulders above the competition, and I commend you for pouring the blood, sweat and tears into the completion of this masterpiece!

Thanks.

[Digory]

Pretty good.

Good flash, nice animation, good visual storytelling, also you created a really great atmosphere. Particularly creative is the part with the weird creature that's points the way, I liked that. Also the effect where the ghost goes through the wall was cool...

One gripe: The lettering used for the opening credits comes off looking kinda cheap and amateurish. I dunno how else to explain, but I think some plain ol' text (rather then all "3-D" and shiny) might look better...you know, 'less is more' kinda thing.

And, like everyone else said, why'd that dude wanna steal the pumpkin? Heh, good flash though...

WhiteLightning responds:

Thanks, I'll take the text thing into consideration in the future. And yeah, formulate your own opinions about the hunchback guy, I just kinda overlooked that part.

[Fun With Pillz.]

Good stuff...

That was pretty funny. Good voice acting, decent animation, the pacing of the jokes was good, kept me interested the whole time. I know it's overdone, but I liked the ghost Michael Jackson bit. Really, this was well done...

[The Halloween Animation]

Yeah...

Yah, this is great, voice acting and art is really funny.

peixeaquatico responds:

yeah !!

[Lychgate]

Awesome & creepy...

Dang, this is really great. Awesome idea, and well animated. The landscape and clouds create a nice desolate atmosphere, and the music adds a chaotic feel. Very good for Halloween...

MarcK responds:

Huzzah for halloween!
Thanks a buttload.

[KFK's Adventures #12]

Funny stuff.

Funny. I was laughing right off the bat with all the K words, followed by pointless making the K sound a bunch more...This is the first of your stuff I've seen, but now I'm gonna go down the list!

[Hallogasm]

My skull is bleeding from AWSOMENESS

The art and animation (at least during the frame-by-frame parts) is really good. Particularly the king of a thousand eyes bit. Sweet.

[Dumbledore is Gay]

Chuckle

Ya, that was amusing.
And it wasn't that bad or offensive, I dunno what people's deal is.
Just cuz it's front page, probly suprised em a bit.
Like you said, there's much worse on Newgrounds.
This actually reminds me of an old 50's propaganda movie called "Boy's Beware" (look it up on youtube) where they equate homosexuality to pedohilia.

RSQViper responds:

Yeah, people are jumping up and down over nothing, really. This is pretty tame and I actually don't 'show' anything too disturbing. I just hint at it (albeit strongly).
