chris-the-stick's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zero Hour]

wow! once again, you've created a great movie, pop-tart!

i really liked how you were joking about the ''making a movie about not making a movie'' thing, its so funny and cool! (and in some of my flashes, true).

i also liked the fact that you've added corpsegrinderclock in your movie; he was always a great artist and a good friend, so seeing him again on a new clockcrew movie is a really pleasant thing to witness.

now, about the story:
oh man, that was a great story! i loved that it started as a ''normal'' flash movie, and then pop-tart unfolded the mystery behind the CC's death, and told to c-grinder-clock that:
after god-clock's death(in a previous colllab, great reference joke+continuity!), demons have invaded the CC, and the clockbusters had to close the demon gate (namely, BB10 had to close the said gate), and to crush any remaining demons with the ion-beam guns!

naturally, i was excited about all this, and i was hoping to see such an epic battle...
however, despite the fact that the story changed into a different setting+scenario, it was still very interesting.
it was talking about the death of flash, the death of creativity, and the new age of the internet that doesnt allow creativity and humour to survive on this realm...
and as we grow older, the CC suffers greatly by this.
indeed, time will kill the CC. ironic.

with that being said, your movie was beautiful, with nicely drawn characters, with a very fluid animation, with nice punchlines and good humour, while it also had good speed, a nice story, and a very good meaning behind its initial, ''sarcastic'' exterior.
it had humour, philosophy, action and cool promises.

in short: it was a great movie.

i love your movies: they make me think, and they give me infinite joy.
never change, my friend!

happy clockday!

Pop-Tart responds:

I can always count on you to get sll the "in-jokes!"

Maybe I'll make that movie for real some time... where we get God back. It could be a fun idea.

Happy Clockday, old friend.

[Strawberry's IceCream]

nice movie, man!

i really liked how you've drawn the characters of strawberry-clock, apple, steak and bb10, while i also liked the whole animation's style, the design of the backgrounds, the movie's good animation speed, and the funny story!

i liked how SBC was trying to get his ice cream back from steak-clock, and when SBC dueled steak-clock, something epic happened! (nice plot twist!)
the whole movie was well-animated, with good music, with lots of humour, cool action scenes and nicely drawn characters.

my only suggestions for your movie would be:

-you could add a preloader, or a play/replay button, instead of having it loop.
loops are not very popular in here.
other than that, you did good.

also:
-you could add some subtitles, if you want: because at some parts, the voices of the clocks were a bit quiet/low.

with that being said though, this was a good movie, and i really enjoyed it.
this was a cool CC flash, so keep up the good work!

RealRedbookClock responds:

Lol, Thanks for the positive comment!

[Brendan Barnes 2nd try against Raiders]

great work in drawing+animating realistic people, with a VERY realistic movement in this flash animation, along with the already good animation speed of this film, AKA=its FPS speed...

i also like the ''flowing lines'' effect, and the vivid colours that you've used in the movie.

you always draw++animate realistic humans+human movements in a great way, so its needless to say that i admire your work alot.
you are one of the most skilled artists out there, and i love how realistic are the movements+appearance of your (movie) characters.

keep up the good work!

matilus responds:

Thanks mate for the positive feedback.

[Careless Episode 1]

wow!
this is a really nice animation, with a cute story, its a nicely orchestrated film with a good FPS speed, fluid animation, nice linework, and good character designs, despite their (seeming) simplicity.

also, i love how nicely the character's face expressions and movements are drawn, while the cockroaches+the humanoid creature that tries to help them are really nice, cute and cool characters to observe!
question: did you used mostly FBF, or tweens?
and what was your FPS speed?

all in all, this was a really nice, innocent, and cute movie, with beautiful, fluid animation, with good speed and a nice setting in general, while its design+style remained unique and charming.
great work my friend!
i see lots of potential in you, so keep practising and you will become (even) better!
keep up the great work!

Demetrios responds:

Thank you for your kind words! I really enjoyed making this animation and plan on making several to follow up with. Keep on the look out! ^_^

Even though I do not respond immediately due to work and school, I read every single one of your replies. :)

As to answer your questions: I have used FBF this entire episode with 12FPS.

Thank you again! To hear how much you enjoy viewing is great motivation for me to make more animations!

Always continue to be an amazing person! :)

[Agent Kill in dhe hood!]

good movie: it had an (almost) immortal, interesting protagonist, it justified his resistance to bullets thanks to the ''armour'' counter next to his health bar, then it had MANY scenes of good, solid action, good animation speed, nice FBF sequences, and flawless battle choreography.
plus, both the characters, the guns,, AND the backgrounds were all nicely drawn, with good details, and everything was nicely combined, into one cool, action-filled animation.
good movie, nice animation skills...

this was a quality stick-movie.
keep it up, and make more cool stuff like this!

Xefcoolerz responds:

LOL thanks "sticky" if you know what i mean! haha!

[Mom, Mommy, Mama, Mom... DJ Khaled Remix]

hehehe... clever use of DJ khaled's joke on his wife, with the (now)classic family guy scene of stevie annoying his mom in the same way.

good use of the snap-vid soundfile, and good editing on the (already existing) family guy scene+characters.
did you draw DJ khaled's face on your own?
if yes, congrats! its a good drawing of his face.
if not, its OK... your movie is still good, and i will assume that this was a sprite design of his face.
either way, your movie was funny, and it delivered a good pun.

good work.

PointBlankAnimations responds:

Thank you for your review! And to answer your question, we did draw DJ Khaled's face.

[The Clock And The Lock]

like i've said before, this was a great movie, with nice drawings of bluestone-clock and of his enemy, strawberry-lock, having a wild chase scene on horseback and then an epic gun-fight, which results in the final scene, and with bluestone-clock's triumph.

you've drawn all the characters nicely, with some good face/clock/lock expressions, with good characteristics, nicely drawn guns, hats, and with a decent background.

my only objections are that:
-you should add a preloader, or a play/replay button.
but dont worry, because this can be easily fixed in your next movies...

-you should add some shooting sounds, and a western music in your movie.
it would make this already good movie 10 times better!

-the horses should be more detailed/better drawn, for they were quite minimalistic, to say the least.

all in all, this was a good movie, full of action+epic gun fights, but it could be better, if you would add some more things.
keep up the good work, and make more clock-themed movies!
you rock!

SunSmog responds:

i already added shooting sounds and western music, in the mp4 version.

[PORTAL SPAWNED]

such sorcery! how?! XD

really nice effects dude, i liked it alot.
my only suggestion: you should've added a blue portal somewhere else as well...
it would be more ''complete'', in terms of portal-lore, at least.

i wonder, did you used green screen for this?
good work, i found it cool.

JustineHrishi responds:

Thank you sir! I appreciate your support will make a new one with blue portal soon.
I didn't used any green screen sir .
