MegaCarlMan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pokimens]

This was AWESOME! Beautiful.

[Pokemon or Something?]

This is a good reimagination of Egoraptors style.

If your response to that is, "I'm just learning" then my response is, "Cute, still a reimagination."

It's cool to learn and to emulate styles of people you enjoy, but for fuck sake get your own jokes and try a different style of acting, animating and humor. Spazdick is just as bad, so his little hub-bub is like a bunch of horny dogs sniffing their own asses and telling each other how great they smell. It's a rip-off, plain and simple. Admit to it, get the fuck over it, and continuing ripping off people until you have your own style. Don't lie to your audience, or to yourself like Spazkid has.

Now that that's that. The animation was done rather well. A bunch of choppy parts which weren't nice to look at, and some rather unfinished frames here and there, but overall the movement was smooth and pleasing. If this had some more polishing I would've rated higher.

The writing had some funny parts. Nothing really clever, just reusable jokes with reusable characters. There was nothing really new about content either. Pokemon is a long fucking game. Go play it, joke about something no one else has. The "God damn Dexter, you're so informative" part makes me laugh every time. It's nice to hear a fresh under exaggerated joke. What is an over exaggerated joke?

Anything Egoraptor does. IE. Nurse "Derp" Joy. I got enough of that humor in the Awesome Series. People who've never seen the awesome series are going to like this, but most of the audience on newgrounds will ask you to stop picking up Ego's toilet paper sketches and turning them into cartoons.

I wasn't going to say anything at all, but Spazkid and his little fiasco of blatant rip-offery "this is inspiration" made me want to vomit just as much as his "go ahead and do it and be proud" bs. It's not about being proud, it's owning up to the fact that you've done nothing original. Yeah you wrote it, yeah you animated it, but come on. No go ahead and click the little minus "bad review" button cuz I hurt your feelings.

Keep animating, just do something the rest of us haven't seen 1000000000000 times.

Thanks for the feedback on my animation I agree with the flaws it had,cause it was rather rushed,cause I knew Egoraptor was making a PokeAwesome 2 as I was making this at the time I was in the middle of making it as he made the offical announcement.So I didn't want to get bashed for making a Pokemon animation cause our all mighty god egoraptor was out there making one.and I didn't want to get more grief than I already do for making this Pokemon thing even exist.

Now that that's that.I have to disagree on something you said,that made you come off as ignorant. Like big time.

You said to not use the style of animating that Egoraptor uses,which is what? Bouncy movement,anatomy bending,stretchy and lively,colorful and free,wacky and zany,fun and "awesome". So basically don't make a,CARTOON. That's everything that defines a cartoon. Something wacky and something you cant do in real life. something that you cant even come close to doing in real life. Something fun to look at?

Egoraptor took something from old cartoons like ren and Stimpy,Spongebob,looney tunes show and all of those classic gems(with the exception of Spongebob which is fucking gay now,no like literally) and put it on the internet. He didn't fucking define the "style" you keep going on about,he just POPULARIZED IT. Hes making a cartoon hes always been doing that and crazy kids like you are like "Whoaaa he did something new that's existed sense FOREVER" uh ooooh break through! Im not "upset" about you "hurting my feelings" I'm flabbergasted that you HONESTLY believe that Egoraptor is some big shot celebrity that us animators shouldn't even think of crossing paths with,hes not.

and everything Spazkid said is true,hes not fooling himself or his audience,hes stating the obvious. Apparently your too blind to see that.So im guessing based off what you said, Egoraptor(fuck im saying his name alot) isnt very original himself then,cause he borrowed alot aspects of animation you just don't believe others shouldn't follow also.

[Batman : The Droppings]

The voice acting is fantastic. The art is amazing. Get a better writer. :)

[GROWIN' UP (NATA '12)]

Awesome animation! Great story telling. Not really sure what was around the corner though. Cthulu?

VieRickend responds:

That'd be really cool, but no, it's an elephant. Like the metaphor "elephant in the room"

[RollerCoasterEP1]

I couldn't read half of the subtitles because of the white on white background. That's something you should've fixed before uploading, most of your readers missed out on 1/4 of the story. I think the animation was fine, but you really need to work on the timing in the next episode. Really need to have quick timing. The frog bit of him sitting and blinking wasted my time. The frog part where he yells at it and it shows his little "I'm shitting my pants" part took too long as well.

Other than those bits, this was really cool. I could see you doing some excellent work and am looking forward to seeing more.

[Not so Happy Ending]

This is great. Only people who rate low didn't get their happy ending.

Jae responds:

Hahaha niiice one thanks!

[LUCKY DAY FOREVER]

One of the best animations to grace this site! Fluid, dynamic, intracate, and stylistically original artwork. Engaging, topical and driving storyline. Beautifully composed music! This was fantastic all together. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for your work in the future.

[ECLIPSE FORCE]

Somebody watched dragon ball z as a kid! Awesome from start to finish, glad you posted it here for everyone to see!

[Bounty + Hunter]

People are idiots. This was beautifully done and well worth the watch. The time and effort put in this is very apparent in the well thought out transitions and timing. I'm definitely going to watch more of your stuff! Great animation, keep up the good work.

[Pelvishelmet & Lettucehat]

I can't believe this isn't getting better ratings. This is awesome! I'd love to see more of this kind of work from you guys.

EsMatiCSounDs responds:

Thank you! :D. There is more on the way
