Comick's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[WORTH IN PROGRESS]

Really great short! Love the use of stop motion and frame by frame pencil. The overall ending was a bit ominous as the felt guy's last words are that he will draw to his grave...has only one last notch left on the shelf to fill, drowns in the sea of sad papers, and cant seem to attach the drawn faces to his head anymore and the room is a wreck. Was this a metaphorical "death of an artist"?? or just worked to his death? Or was it just he's going to stop contemplating it all anymore? I had assumed when the sea came up and the place was a mess, we would see any empty shelf ready for filling again...like we go through emotions but always come back up to draw again, but instead they place a last book (the sad one) and it ends. I loved the piece overall , def needs to be in the "best of the month" list! Great job!

[The Cosmic Machines]

Dang space cats, you go through all the trouble to feed them and all you get is a fungal infection XD Experimental but cool! I think if you cleaned up the art/animation a bit and fixed the audio it would help the quality. But the idea of a space traveler in a weird cosmic universe could open the doors to some creative possibilities.

Thank you so much Comick!

[Be an animator!]

This made me laugh probably harder than it should have! I never knew that I could totally relate to a decrepit old man flipping 3 papers XD

[Kevin's Diner]

Really great cartoon! i loved the expressions, smooth movements and the story was fun and executed well. It actually gave me a few laugh out loud moments too! Great work and hope to see more animations from you! You gained a new fan ^_^

[Rise of NOX]

Your work has always stood out in quality and style. Honestly you have only gotten better and better with the combo of animation, video art, and storytelling on every new piece. Your stuff always gets my hyped up watching it haha. Basically, take my money now!

[Becky and the Lost Egg - The Mudlands]

Really cool short! The expressions, animation, and characters were super charming. I couldn't quite tell if this was stopmotion/clay or cgi...or a hybrid of both? It was very seamless if so. Looking forward to where this story leads so I had to follow! Great job

[Friday Night Funkin' Cardboard Edition - Week 7 - Guns - Vies Animation]

Love the cardboard style animation on this! Super creative take on the level haha, I like how there are tiny red sticks that show where things are moving from almost like a puppet show. Would have been fun to see a cardboard Pico jump down at the end there :b Great piece!

[GOOEY GOATS]

Wow I really loved this short. Its a perfect blend of heart, comedy and dark humor! Don't pay attention to the 3.4 score, this should be in the high 4.5 range! The amount of work to make a stop motion animation takes hours and hours and the fact you made one that is 17 mins long plus have multiple sets, characters, props, expressions etc...its just a feat! No wonder it took you 2 years, its really great! Also, I loved the way you animated the expressions on everyone it had a really "cartoony" aspect to what is actually a dark "body snatchers" horror element...turned into a daughter/father family adventure haha. So unique and very much entertaining. I actually felt a little bad for the damn ox though, his outcome was like going from bad to worse XD. I expected him to put on a little hat and suitcase and just walked out the door heh. Anyways, great job on this you have a new fan! and looking forward to what you create next!

Sonjira responds:

Thank you so much!! Yea that Ox did get kinda goofed on, but he's a part of the gooey family 🐂 gotta take the bad with the good.

[The Last Mother - 2D Animated Student Film HKU 2020]

Damn that was amazing! It gave me goosebumps while I watched it. The visuals and music worked so well together it sweeps the viewer away leaving us with many messages about nature, life, death and the ending and rebirth of the world. Really great job on this! I hope it gets a front page feature...it deserves it.

GVlash responds:

Thank you, that was our goal ! ♡ ♡

[HEY BOB]

This was super creative and I loved how well everything flowed from different styles of animation and yet it all worked togther and didn't feel jarring or abrupt. It was really fun and worth multiple watches to catch all the little details a viewer might watch on the first round. Great job!
