Cantdoright's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Digory]

Unforgetable

This is amazing and heartwarming. I loved everything about it and I hope to see more from you. The animation really is cute and well developed. You can defiantly use Flashes effects better then I hope to right now. For your next project try to loosen up your characters like you did the spider in the beginning. Mainly what I mean by that is when Digory runs his arms stay completely still. Also I was hoping for to do a little skip at some point but that is just me. Great job and keep animating!

WhiteLightning responds:

Yeah, the style makes it hard for the animation to be to loose, though the one I'm working on now is pretty opposite, the characters are kinda rubbery :)

[PumKinFolk!]

Amazing

I really loved it. Nice Idea and wonderfully made. Short and sweet. Something I would like to do in the future. Keep animating man, cuz I love your work.

Also look for my animation, it be a few under yours. Sigh I stand in your shadow. Might get FP man GL.

Squidems responds:

Hey, thanks a lot man. I actually watched yours already (and 5/5'd it), animating to music is hard work...

[Hawaiian Puppies]

Good

Well really great, but after reading a great book on animating (The Animator's Survival Kit), this could have been a lot better. Movements were basic and always fallowed a cycle. The best animation I saw was in the background when the bat was trying to sing to the little water dragon, which was behind the Hawaiian Puppy when he was complaining about the bat's horrible singing. Things I saw that could have been improved where as follows:

a. When the HPs (Hawaiian Puppies) are dancing behind the two headed bat, it was just a cycle of countless puppies doing the same dance. It would have been more interesting to have them 3-4 Dance across the screen in the same amount of time as the infinite puppies but give each their own dance across or at least a dance more elaborate then moving their arms up and down.

b. I feel the running of the little water dragon was stiff and needed to be more flexible. I would have also suggested a more skip-like run, to make her seem more young and adorable.

c. I would also comment on the jump she performs at the end of the run and spin, which felt as if she floated into the air and then fell.

d. I felt the drummers could have been a little more diverse such as maybe a smaller one pounding on the drum with a big drumstick, would have been funny to see him struggle with the weight and add diversity to the drummers.

Overall this was a good animation that, with a little more effort can become great. This is much better than anything I have done yet, but I hope that I can learn and work with you in the future. Also would like to congratulate you on the great backgrounds. Anyways keep animating cuz you got the talent for it. Thanks for reading and I hope you have a great day.

HawaiianPuppies responds:

Ah yeah, I've actually read that book before. I remember when it was first published I was 12 and spent all my savings on it XD.

I would agree that the best part of the short, in terms of animation, was the scene where MattLin was dancing in the background as the puppy complained in the foreground. And pretty much all your suggestions to the animation would enhance it and give the piece even more charm.

We were originally trying to have this finished in time to enter it into a Nickelodeon Film Festival / Competition, so some parts may have been rushed from the storyboard process onward, but I appreciate your input.

[Nim Vind Music Video]

amazing

Everything was spot on. Only complant was the is should have been Steaven King then Lovecraft.

[Girlchan in Paradise Ep2]

will 3 be the last?

Awesome like always. Everything was spot on with including all the "surprises" and "secrets" that animes' tend to have. Funny how he screamed so hard his band-aid flew off.

[Doot Doot Death]

very nice

a good practice, but even those should be cleaned up. Just zoom in and edit all unwanted lines, I am sure someone as smart as you can figure it out. I like where you are heading to with your style and I hope to see some animations from you soon. Keep animating!

Goatskape responds:

Thanks. Once I am able to animate more fluidly, I am looking to begin two series. One comedy and one action/adventure.

[Zombie Q]

Very awesome

Nice little twist at the end, but after I looked at you news pag for this I was sad you did not let the girl live, becuase she is hot! Anyways the animation was ok at first, but you can see you got better as the animation progressed. Awesome weapons to use. I only see one flaw in your logic and that is the bird. Unless the bird was brain dead he would have never even gone near the zombie because of the smell and sense of danger, but it was for comedic perposes and that makes it okay. Keep animating man, becuase you are great at what you do!

[Pencilmation #7]

Cow!

Why Pencilmation god WHY!?! I would have loved a cow that cute and adorable. I would have called him Mr. Moo. Anyways on to the wonderful animation, the addition of your hand was a plus, but I think you should do some stop motion with your hand so you can interact with the little guys. I only saw one minor problem and that was "The End" in which the "The" in "The End" was not facing the right way (I am not talking about being upside down but the fact that it should be looking like "The" when you turn it back over, not "eht". I hope you get what I am saying). Anyways a great flash like always which is now making me think to add a cow somewhere in my next animation. Keep animating man for all your work is amazing!
