Nylo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Fuck Off, Gates!]

Ha ha, short and sweet.

I didn't see that one coming at all. Visuals were ok, but I liked the audio of the Airport lady in the background (your "girlie"?). Anyways, I got a kick out of the joke, even if it was from somewhere else. Nice job putting it into a visual form.

[The Legacy of X-Star: Ep2]

You've improved.

I can tell your visual work has really improved. Not only that, but you've made much more use of your creativity in characters and how you depict them; very cool. The shadowing in the movie was awesome, I also liked how the class gauges busted while he was in the chamber. Audio was awesome, the music and sfx were great. I like how every episode so far has had a specific role in the story; there's no crap episode where it leaves something completely uncovered in a bad attempt to expand the world. You're doing a really great job with this series, keep up the good work.

[The Legacy of X-Star: Ep3]

This series really picks up.

I love where this movie's story is going. The visuals seemed like they were put to use much more this time. Your audio selection was very cool, I love the sfx used for the military. The fighting scenes were great, very action-packed and creative. Nice BGM, it had a mellow pace and a nice sad ring at the end. Great job.

[The Legacy of X-Star]

Very cool.

Wow, I haven't seen an idea like this surface in a while. It just goes to show you: sticks aren't THAT bad provided one knows how to spice things up a bit. The visuals were pretty damn cool. While not all crisp and nice, they style in which explosions and sitance perspectives were used was very cool (I never consider crips visuals to be an important factor in movies anyways). The music was a little on the strange side, but it's high paced beat pulled me in the mood of the movie. Style was great because you did a great job of setting a background for a story and good character development. I'll defeinitely be checking out your other work. Great job.

[FAGATOR:Alex]

Pretty basic and little animation.

Don't get me wrong, I get a kick out of stuff like this, but it was a little on the bland side. I basically stared at the same thing for 1 and a half minutes: This guy moving his mouse around. I thought the audio was pretty funny, but it got way off track and I was left with the audio finished at points and the guy still moving his lips for 4 to 5 seconds. It would have been a bit more interesting if you'd shown why you got booted from godfart, and maybe built up a little rivalry with you two in the film, but oh well. It wasn't too bad, but just kind of basic.

[Vietnam:ASniper'sTale P1]

Hmmm...it needs a bit of work.

True, this flash movie was pretty short. The vusuals were ok, I liked the shot to the heart. Audio was a bit hard to hear at time, especially at one point where the snipers voice was cut off. It was mostly the style and flow that slowed things down in the movie. It seemed really basic because not a lot was revealed about the sniper. I guess what I'm trying to get out is that in this episode, there really wasn't any character development in the sniper, which can always be fixed in the next episose, but it left this one feeling a bit empty. Maybe try to get some more music in there. Susepenseful or action, whichever your going for. It really does seem like an interesting concept, I like how it ties in with the history. If you touched this up a bit, I think it could be really good. Good luck.

[perish]

Deep stuff, I like it.

I love seeing deeper stuff on NG, it shows that people really do put in a part of themselves when they make these movies. The visuals were pretty good, the car and moving backgrounds were done nicely. I thought the lighter to the picture was very creative. The audio choice was pretty cool, the mood and flow seemed to move really well with it. I would have suggested a little more experiences with this girl and guy, to have a more impactive ending/beginning. I think the girl he (***spoiler***) hit with the car was his girlfriend, right? It'd have been cool to show how he maybe caught her with another guy and then go back further (to the beginning) and show how it was just her brother visiting or having dinner with her. I dunno, just some ideas. What you have here is plenty, and done very nicely. Great job, I always appreciate good art and creativity in flash movies. Great job.

true, I could have get a little more into the background story... but almost everyone gets what this movie is all about, so I think it worked out well the way it is.

[Memories by the Lake]

..........Bwa ha ha ha ha ha.

You know, the portal has been lacking in clever diologue as of late. Well, the plot was pretty basic and predictable, but the way you carried it out was too damn funny. The opening kicked ass, nice visuals of the lake and the two guys. Audio was funny as hell. You've really got the voice reactions and visual reactions dead on, they couldn't get much better than that class A performance. I love how this guys perception of the lake is just totally ruined. Great job, the style in this movie is awesome. Great job.

Boneland responds:

Thanks for the detailed comments, man!

I'd also just like to say that i've been reading these reviews and i'm really happy to read that most of you seem to have really enjoyed the show. Thanks to all for saying so! (t)

[Legend of Shade (TRAILER)]

Genge said it best.

It's hard to review such a short trailer. This isn't even really a trailer, it's more like a teaser, since it hasn't established or reveiled any plot or event besides a chase scene. The visuals were ok, though the mood is somewhat affected by the fact that the characters are stick figures. This movie desperately needs some musical touch. Just make sure you compress the audio if you decide to do so. It's hard to judge your style based on something so short as well. What I saw seemed ok if there was some music and a touch up on visuals, but the fact that it was so short kind of hurt the impact.

[Life's Lessons 1-5]

Cliche', but still funny.

The visuals and voice audio have been pretty well done into the ground, yet for some reason if done correctly are still very funny. You pulled it off somehow; maybe it was that funny music in the background all the time. The accidents he got into were pretty obvious, but the outcomes were still pretty funny. Maybe try to make them a bit more surprising next time. I love the concept of having 5 life lessons, that's pretty cool. Well, all in all, it was pretty predictable, but the movie still had lots of good qualities. I think this could really turn into a good series if it were to progress. Nice job.
