Island-Gorilla's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[YAAFM 11: Scientology]

Good, not great.

I agree that Scientology needs to come under greater scrutiny, but I felt the humour that you derived from this was childish.
Really? Actors are gay? By Lucifer!
You're not really making ripples there.
I would've liked to see more discussion about the brainwashing techniques used by Scientologists, like when you touched on Cruise's attempted mindjob on Johanssen.
I feel that would've been more in touch with the essence of the series than 'OMG TRAVOLTA'S GAY LOL'.

Aside from that, good job, and I can't wait for your next target.

The-WalrusZ responds:

By Lucifer!

---I'm gonna use that!

[Just Childs Play]

XDDDDDDDD

I was wondering when you would release something onto Newgrounds.
This was a pretty sweet concept for a music video. I especially liked the Alice in Wonderland and ballerina parts.
I'd more or less given up on TATU having heard their take on How Soon Is Now, so thanks for bringing this nifty little number to my attention.
Congratulations on a well-conceived NG debut.

[Code Veronica: Flash Edn]

Worth the wait.

Definitely a leap from your previous work, graphically at least.
I might be wrong, but it seems like you're refining your comedic writing style as well; the script is more streamlined and linear than previous offerings-- not necessarily a bad thing, either.

Voice acting was all excellent, although you seem be pulling out all the stops to make Alfred's voice the single most irritating sound on the face of the planet. It is starting to become a parody of itself.

Some nice little extras and zoom-ins included...the alternate costumes are something I've not seen before in Flash.

Very much looking forward to part 2, not least because there should be more Wesker. Congratulations on a Flash that will, if there's any justice, silence the naysayers for a few months, at least.

[Harry Potter/DBZ 3]

Definitely much better...

...Than the first two.
There's clear improvement on all fronts.
And you had Beetlejuice, Grease *and* Thundercats in the same Flash.
It would be some sort of crime against awesomeosity not to commend your efforts.
The bloke doing Potter's voice cracks me up, I've never ever thought of him as having that accent before.
Nice job.

[July the Seventh]

Forgive me if I seem a little slow...

But I don't think I got the message.
You're saying Britain is wrong for 'defending itself', and then 'stop terrorism'.
Clarification would help; it just seems like you're trying to appeal to everyone's political sensibilities at once.
I can't really comment on technical prowess in this presentation, seeing as there was none displayed beyond the capacity to import sound and pictures. (Which puts you ahead of half the portal, granted.)
Nice effort, would've benefitted from more thought.

(And to the buttmunch who was whining about London not shedding a tear for the U.S, grow the fuck up and get yourself an education.)

[Little Less Conversation]

Holy awesome collab, Batman!

This was awesome. You could tell from the presentation and the enthusiasm that a lot of blood, sweat and tears have gone into this.
One minor quibble, the 'Suitable for All Audiences' may be a little misleading *cough* Pikanjo *cough*. Not that I'm complaining...
Not really a lot more to say. It would take me forever to list all the parts I liked, so I'll just close by saying congratulations to all who took part, you did real good; and especially to Wonchop for having the balls and the tenacity to pull something like this off.
You all win the Internet.

Wonchop responds:

yay internet for me

[Steve The Tree]

I LOL'D.

In terms of full length Flash debuts, this is pretty damn good.
My only gripe is that some of the comedic timing was a little slow, but other than that, this is top hole stuff.
Hope to see it on the front page real soon.

[Tom Cruise Gets Wet!]

Hmm, not bad...

But not great either.
Maybe trying to twist a Flash movie out of it was a bad idea. It probably would've worked better as a comic.
Animation was fairly good, although the sound wasn't much cop. Probably would've been better to have someone doing a decent impression of him rather than take the recording from the incident itself.
And to the previous reviewer, Tom Cruise *is* a Scientologist. He's famous for it. He's also managed to indoctrinate his fiancee.
*world's slowest clap*
Class act, that he is.

[We Hate It When...]

Nerdtopia.

Cool idea for a collab.
If I had to pick favourites, I'd say Jo's and Zonzo's, because they were both pretty funny.
Excellent job by everyone though. You guys gets a fifen.

[Star Wars:Expendable Sith]

*fzzap*

Hah, it's funny 'cos it's true.

Voices weren't right on the button, but they were good 'n' characterful anyway. Acting was sound.
I like your style, it sort of reminds me of Cycon's, but more caricatured.
Good pace and delivery on the humour.
Shame it wasn't longer is all I've got against it, really.
Nice work.
