GlitchBuddy's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pillowshell: Episode 0 - A long time ago]

A pretty interesting animation that left me wanting to know more. If I may ask, what was the inspiration for the characters being pillowcases?

Metallis responds:

I'm getting this question more than I expected too lol >.<
It was my visual attempt to capture a feeling i get sometimes when i lie awake at deep night, very tired but not yet asleep.
It's strange, uncomfortable feeling-- I don't want to get too into it right now, but pillows, I thought, were a good way to represent that feeling.

More will come very soon ;)

[Pico: Battle for Newgrounds]

This is a cool animation! The fight scenes are well-animated, and I enjoyed the references to several classic NG characters. It really does capture the 2000s Newgrounds energy very well.

[OVERDUB]

Pretty decent as far as animation quality is concerned; you're able to squeeze a lot of movement and expression out of a bunch of crudely drawn stickmen. The fast-paced humour works well here, and managed to keep me engaged throughout. I enjoyed this one.

Also, they might want to consider adopting stage names...

[Alien Tourist - Pencil Test 1]

An interesting concept, for sure! I love how expressive the character is, too. I'm excited to see how this one turns out!

CameronBlake responds:

Thanks!

[Kappa Protec, Kappa Attac!]

A really interesting animation; I can't say I've ever seen a parchment style before. As someone who is not familiar with the original legend this was based on, I feel as if you were able to effectively portray the enlightenment of a man whose emotions turned him into a monster. I also enjoyed the small way you brought together modern and ancient by having the three kappas hop on a bus to get to the temple.

The animation itself, as well as the character and sound design was also executed very well in my opinion. I can't tell if it was a deliberate choice or not, but I found it interesting how very few sound effects were used during the battle with the monster; it helps in heightening the intensity of the battle.

An overall incredible animation. Keep it up!

PooPooGhostoons responds:

Thanks so much dude, You understood it spot on! Really happy to hear you liked the sound in the battle, I'm not a drummer (just a taiko drum master enjoyer) but I had a lot of fun recording that section.

[Coffee]

It's so stupid; I love it.

[Pablo: Happy times theme!!! (2005 flash animation)]

The animation is decent enough, but the audio is not good. Now to be fair, I have no idea if this is Flash's compression or not, but I often find myself having to turn up my volume in order to hear what is being said. However, my main issue is that the "PABLO" part of the song is essentially a jumpscare. It really needs to be turned down.

GalaxyYoshi responds:

please read the the first line of the authors comments/description to further understand the point and goal of this animation, thanks. Pablo is also meant to hold a surreal but also comedic value which is why it'll have moments where the audio is blasting out "PABLO" at a high volume, so if you dont fully understand this then I'd personally say this is something you won't enjoy that much and thats fully understandable

[World of Strays: Intruder - Teaser Trailer]

Yoo, this animation looks awesome! I shall be eargely awaiting the full release!

TurtleRoll responds:

Thx! Happy to hear that!

[CoaS: Sandwich]

Really like the cartoony style of this. Keep it up!

[Bygone vanity]

I do love a good bit of surrealism, and this is no exception. The wacky art style, the even wackier storyline, the live action element in the middle all worked together to keep me INVESTED. You could never really tell what was coming next, and I mean that in a good way. Nice work!
