andrew-w-p's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Merry Melony: Book 1 (pg]

God damn, a real blast from the past right here! So many of us have been waiting since 2005 for you to return Meony to the grounds! I didnt believe it was true when this showed up on my NG home page. My disappointment that this is only a teaser in comic book format is palpable, but over ridden by my absolute exuberance that this came back from the dead, even if the story is going to be different. Cant say as I like that idea, but it's not my place to make that call, its yours as the artist/creator.

Lets see if this takes off, or falls flatter than my hopes in 05 when MM first died of neglect. I have to ask though, why a new story? The first was never finished and so many of us loved what was there in the original animation! Why not work with that instead of a total reboot? Format/style I can understand, but I cant fathom why the new direction in the story....

Waiting with bated breath, just wont hold my breath

Duhreetoh responds:

I'm starting over because I learned a whole world of information about storytelling, art and animation since I first started. You'll find that many of the things that happened in the original will happen in the comic, but in different places. I'm a different person now and want to tell a deeper story while still being true to what people liked. A dozen pages in, tell me if you're still disappointed, and if so, thats on me :)

I like it, your style is really neat. Super god damned creepy too. Its a real 180 from your usual style, but still similar enough to tell its you. Full on 5 stars for going outside your norm and maybe even comfort zone *?* and experimenting.

Looking forward to seeing more from you

Gerkinman responds:

Thanks mate, im glad you enjoyed the short. Sometimes I worry that my work can be a little too different and people cant tell its me from project to project, but im glad you found it still noticeably me.

I look forward to seeing whats next from me too! Ha ha.

[Funny or Die]

"If you dont find this funny you will die" If thats the case.....

Well you just killed more people than Genghis Khan and Hitler combined, nobody over the age of 12 would find your talentless and pointless piss and shit jokes funny.

Crude can be funny if its done right, this was just lazy. Not even classifiable as low brow, or even low hanging fruit. This is below even plain old playground level juvenile. You should be ashamed for even posting this on Newgrounds, and THAT'S saying something. Zero stars

DJFyatChoonZ responds:

Great Success!

Also someone's a little mad, lel.

[Strange World]

Looks like you drew this on an etch-a-sketch. If your goal was to make it look like you didn't care about quality and just made this as fast as possible, you succeeded. The "story" if you could even call it that was just awful. Unfunny as hell and the timing was so bad, it makes CSPAN look upbeat and hilarious in comparison.

Zero stars. You should donate your animation software to someone who gives a damn about animating instead of uploading junk to Newgrounds. At least the just as bad curry animation had slightly more effort given to it. This was lazy all around. Why even bother?

[Croaky Dokey]

Great animation, and cool story. Would have been 5 stars if not for the creepy, breathy, whispering and dead pan voice over. It sounds like you are a serial killer talking under a blanket while trying not to wake up your latest victim!

Speak up, especially for kid focused material. You need to sound bright and less murdery.

Good work otherwise though.
