Kurt-Reznor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Monkeyspank]

Not bad, in fact I liked it!

Am I a horrible nerdass loser because I know who all those flash artists are?

No. No, I am not.

Do I feel a little bit dirty because our names are both Jordan M. ?

Honestly, I think I do. Honestly.

Did I laugh a little bit?

Yeah. I did. It was funny.

Am I having a conversation with myself in the area where I am supposed to be reviewing a movie?

Yeah, but I've done worse. And I am giving a good review. I think...

Am I jealous?

Yeah.

Do I need more caffeine?

You bet.

Goodnight!

[Meet the Cast of TOD]

Looks nice. Where's the series?

Well? You never made a single cartoon about T.O.D. so I can't really say if I'm going to like it or not. It would have been better to simply have this during the preloader of the actual cartoon, if you ever made one, which you probably didn't.

[Sail To The Moon]

I have a thing for FBF movies

I was reading some of the reviews by livecorpse, since he wrote a couple for some of my movies, and this was the last film he ever reviewed, before killing himself. Kinda thought that this film would have gotten more exposure because of that, but I guess not.

Anyway, I like the way the blood was animated, and the music was great too. I have nothing against Radiohead.

[Mr. BoomBa Ep.6]

I really can't get enough of these

I only wish there were more of them. There are some great series on NG I've discovered.

[Tomorrow's Nobodies Ep.2]

Rocks my world.

I laughed myself to tears.

If this series ever became a TV show, I wouldn't watch it because the comedy would get all sucked out of it so it would be appropriate for network TV. Such good shit. I can't even explain.

[The Amazing Adam Android]

Fantastic

Great with the voice acting, and I liked the plot too. Stacy's voice seemed to fit the role, and Adam reminded me of Dib in that he wore all black and seemed a little nerdy and overconfident, but he had Zim's eyes and toupee. The action was great too, but my only solitary complaint is that the sound quality is kind of fuzzy. It's really not a big deal. Really. You probably just made the sound quality low so that the file size would smaller, even though it's already pretty big.

You could have used new songs this time around, even though the songs in the first Adam Android were pretty bad ass already.

This movie rules. You rule.

[Zoombar Commercial]

You kick everybody's ass

I especially like inclusion of actual voices for this one, and though the sound quality was not well done, and the voice acting was not particularly great, the lip synching was spot on, and the character acting (visually, how they were drawn while talking) was exaggerated and funny. Nice going.

[Mikey, revisited]

Couldn't understand one single word

Not ONE.

[Shaolin Boy 2D]

I really couldn't do any better, sadly.

Most of the point go to the effort, since you put a lot of time into this flash, and I could tell that it was a pain in the ass choreographing the fight sequence. The two things that bothered me was that the characters looked too basic, and also the intro was way too long, staring at a title screen and waiting for the characters to be introduced can wear on the brain a little.

The thing about introductions is:
MOre than half the people who use newgrounds are confined to a dialup modem, so they are already pissed off enough that they have to stare at a loading screen for a movie to load up, so throwing in a minute long introduction doesn't make it any easier.

But the action was smooth and fluid, and you seem to be good at animation. It's just that the actual drawing aspect needed to be fixed, and maybe you need to work on adding more detail. Overall, it wasn't bad.

Invisiduck responds:

ok, first things first, thanks. second, this took me i think in total 8 hours, third, my art skills arnt great that is why i have Mr zool152004 and his artistic hand at hand, which i neglected to use with this one, as it was only a bit of fun. fourth, the intro was in there becuase i finished the cartoon very quickly and had nothing better to do at work, hence the incredibley long and drawn out intro with cheesey music, your great, and so is all your friends, and maybe your dad, and mom, and rest of family. yours sincerely, someone.

Cheers

P.S. i wrote incredibley long response because i can, and will again and again i tell you, woohoo, shizel, go me.woo

["Target Practice"]

It's ok animation, not as good as Sqeezy, but okay

I think it's just that I have a fascination with media that is dispensed by dead authors. It's why I like Nirvana, and why I started watching Livecorpse's movies now. I don't think that this video really had any kind of foreshadowing to his eventual killing spree, though it does pretty much suggest that he was extremely frustrated. Before I try to delve into the man's psyche and try to dissect this film for any clues as to find out what was going on in his broken personality, here is the link to his livejournal that was posted on thesmokinggun dot com

(nevermind, I can't put URL in reviews, but his lj name was weiss.)

The first target was a girl, so that is a direct hint that he was rejected by women, and knew he was never going to find love. The thing he didn't understand was that just because you have a girlfriend, that does not necessarily mean you are loved. For instance, I myself have been in a few relationships, but I had only two girlfriends, and I really only loved one of them, and unfortunately that was the one who didn't love me back. The first one did love me back, but I was uninterested, so love stinks and you can't win.

The next target was just some random person who was standing there. He wasn't attacking, and he wasn't really running away. He was dead before he even had a chance to be seen. Maybe that's how he felt about himself, like he was dead before he even had a chance to be born. I have read his lj posts, and they are depressing as fuck.

The next one is a guy chilling on a park bench, shot through the chest. Jeff thought of himself as that way too. He (the author's picture) looked overweight, so he probably thought that he was a worthless, useless, lazy, perferted, waste, like that guy who was sitting on the park bench, doing nothing. So that was another part of himself that he wanted to erase. Not fix, not, not help, but erase.

He blew up the cop car because didn't want anyone else's help. He didn't want any outside influences to tell him what to do, or how to be, because all of those other influences turned out to be nothing but trouble for him. Everyone who tried to help him turned into one huge clusterfuck of counterproductivity, so he wasn't going to have any of that.

He killed the KKK guy because he was too tired of not being accepted by the Nazi's for being not of the Aryan descent himself. The kid had a lot of hate inside of him, and he needed some kind of support group to tag along with, but the only people who he could really associate with were probably very harshly against him. He had to do it. Also, he was probably aware that most of us on Newgrounds hate racists, so it was probably a way to raise some points on the score.

(Dehydrated Mexicans was NOT racist. It was just taken the wrong way. Everyone missed the point of that cartoon by a good five hundred miles. Besides, I made it like five years ago, so get over it.)

Finally, the shooter kills himself because he realizes that the odds impossible to overcome. When you kill off one problem, several more inevitably crop up in their place, so the only way to rid himself of the scum of the Earth for once and for all was to kill himself, ending the world that existed in the five inch world between his ears.
