JoeMDesign's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[My US of Whateva!]

Ooh! Another triumph!

I thought you said there would be no updates until the PK game was released? Oh well! My mistake!

This is awesome as ever. You have made me happy once again. The newspaper at the start is great too. :D

[Toothpaste]

Major Excellence!

Just wanted to say "Well Done" on a fantastic animation.

I loved the characters and the timing was spot on. The use of the live-cam while you moved the characters out of frame lent it a very nice touch and the whole plot followed a well-balanced three-act structure.

The characters were also well observed. The dumb one being like the brother from My Name Is Earl while the main character was more like your typical antihero, pissed off at the world type. His behaviour was also very consistant. A lot of times people will revert to type for only major plot points but I really believed the transitions from arrogant jackass to helpless victim and back were totally justified.

I was beginning to wonder at how you were able to submit a file THIS big, but when the quality is as good as this, it's completely warranted.

[The HATTA's Rant]

No "disclaimer" can save you!

I agree with a recent comment made that The Hatta is too steriotypical black and bland. The content of this piece is presumptuous, out-dated and has already been contextualised better.

The very fact that you have placed a disclaimer at the beginning would indicate to me that you ARE out to offend people with your rants and you put the blame on anyone who doesn't agree with your cartoons as having no sense of humour. That's insulting.

Hatta? More like "Hater". And the only thing "hat" about him is that this argument is "old-hat".

PLEASE take a break from just animating these rants as I love the aniimation style. But you're trying to speak from a black person's oppinion where, I assume, you're not black. It's the first ever rant that I haven't found funny and I'm a big Foamy fan. Please don't say that it's "ironic" because the use of irony can only be applied to prove a point and I don't see any point in this.

I suggest your next cartoon is set in the 21st century.

To be brutally honest...

I think the script needed a lot more work. The animation looks stiff but clean and there weren't any real laughs at all!

I liked some of the designs but the jokes were unbelievably stale. First of all the setting is a rip-off of Seinfeld (the pig looks like George and sheep like Jerry), the spoofing of animal cartoon characters based on superheros isn't really clever OR funny and lastly the last joke about saying something while unaware that the person you're mocking is standing right behind you has to be the most lame and predictable finish you could possibly imagine!

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but the script needs a MAJOR overhaul. The voices sound kinda annoying after a minute or so as well. Perhaps you've tried too hard to make them sound like "cartoon" voices.

I hope you make another soon, but please try and think it through a little better next time.

[Halo 3 2:Halo 4 The Movie]

Best Movie EVER!

HOMERUN!!!!!!

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you! ^_^

Don't skip the credits, people. There's still more fun to be had!

Thanks again.

More, please!

[A Midnight Snack]

John and Richie...

...you rule!

Everything about it smelled of tasty, rich, creamy goodness! The sound has had a lot of attention paid to it and there seems to be no end to the amount of effort put into the backgrounds, props and animation.

This makes even the best NG submissions appear "half-assed" in comparison.

[Full Metal Sonic]

Nice one!

An excellent intro for a Sonic series and some really cool graphics.

Sonic runs a little slow compared to usual though... Maybe he's taken up jogging?

Anyway, glad to see SOMEONE remembers "Mighty the Armadillo" (why he was left out of Sonic Heroes...?).

Great stuff! Looking forward to seeing more. :)

[Tech SUpport II]

Nice... although...

I love the Foamy series and I know the little guy has an opinion on everything, but he should be more outraged that big American business DO out-sourcing like this in the first place.

I mean, it's all about profit. If some people in a poorer country can be cheaply trained to operate a service, then by God let's have them do all the crap jobs no-one else wants! Who cares? They're not REAL people anyway. Not like us Americans!

Making FUN of these poor bastards just because they get the short end of the stick all the time is NOT a thing Foamy would do. I know Foamy does a lot of things to be "ironic" and there's always a hint of tongue-in-cheek to every short, but I think on this occasion the point was missed.

Keep up the good work and congratulations on your 1 million and fifth episode...

Seriously... Are YOU on a technical support team schedule?

[Foamy: Hurricane Special]

Needed to be said.

Living in the UK, I can say that our coverage of the disaster has been much more reserved and considerate than the kinds of reports Foamy is talking about.

Occasionaly, BBC News 24 will run an ABC News report from the States and then is becomes all too clear.

This type of journalism is not acceptable behaviour. I'm not trying to say that this type of thing shouldn't be reported in the most accurate way, but sticking a camera in someone's face as she's actually ON the phone with a member of her family and is trying to tell them that she is alright, is horrifyingly opportunistic and disrespectful.

"I love you so much..."

"Are you on the phone to her right now?"

"Yes."

"Are you talking to her right now?"

--

Well done, Foamy. I agree whole-heartedly.

[Chavs]

OMFG!!!! I saw this!

I really liked it. Well done for making the front page.

I saw this last year when you posted it on Paramount Comedy's website (if memory serves me correctly).

Anyway, all the best.

Now all we have to expose are "neds"... FAR WORSE! :(
