Psychopath's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nicolas Cage Wants Cake]

Awesome..

At first the animation reminded me alot of Adam Sandlers 8 Crazy Nights, then it reminded my of the way Hayk "Sykohyko" Manukyan used to animate his movies what with the Neenja series and his mini-series "Liar".

Sonichu bit was equally awesome.

[Incident:001A]

That was awesome

I WANT A GIANT BLENDER!!!

[LARRY episode 1.5]

Old, easy, recycled bad jokes and lame characters.

All the jokes are just recycled, repackaged jokes from.. everywhere else.

Animals shitting on people.

stereotypicaly gay people chatting about clothes with stereotypical accents.

The priest is a pedophile.

Everyone hates the french.

Misinterpretive hippies.

Drugs.

I liked the jokes you made in Larry 2 way better. The jokes were original and hilarious at that. Stick to the slapstick.

The animation was decent but nothing to get excited about. Nothing really happens in the story. What did they accomplish? What did they do? All they did was walk around town and get rejected by everybody they requested help from. The only real funny thing that happened was that the short one lost it and roflstomped an asshole.

[Waiting for Tom]

I know exactly what you mean.

I just figured out how to put flash ads into my submissions a few days ago and they're still pending for approval.

Can't stand the wait.

[Batman vs Ducky]

Funny as hell

I take it that the duck is the Jokers split personality he interacts with which represents his real, repressed emotions?

The animation isn't anything to really get excited about, only that it's so none existant that it's just classic. The style kinda reminds me of Todd McFarlanes artwork for Spiderman comics.

[Titanomachina]

Alot of problems

If it weren't for the summarization you categorized underneath "History", I wouldn't know about either Ultima Speranza or Nohta-Mutuay and only that the humans are after the remaining water in the cave.

It's a bad example of "show, don't tell" in story telling. Showing me the story would have been better than simply typing it out in text and then showing me the climax between Ultima Speranza and Nohta-Mutuay.

If someone doesn't read the synopsis, which most people do not when they're already watching the movie; then they'll have no idea what the story even is and assume that there isn't one at all and the content you animated is all there is to it.

Also the animation, although beautifully cinematic, is really confusing. When they initially tied the rope around Speranza and started pulling on it, I didn't know they were actually pulling him to align with the caves entrance; it just seemed as though it was keeping him in place.

And how did he smack the motors out of the air without blowing up his hands? I'd really like to know.

I'm also not at all a fan of using motion tweening for character animation; it just comes off as being cheap and lazy. It's like I'm expecting a gourmet only to get fast food; It's not authentic.

You also abuse the fading out to white effect way too much. It almost gave me a headache.

Although the music was great, it was really fucking quiet, I could barely hear it and I have my speakers set to their highest volume. It also doesn't work very well with the fight scene. I like the brooding, subtle theme it gives to the fight scene, but it just seems really out of place and anti climatic, especially considering the sort of build up you gave to these two in your text plot.

I also have trouble believing that you put this together over a period of years. I understand that everyone has a schedule to keep, but this just seems like something someone could and would do in one or two months time.

I generally love your work Sakupen but overall, it was okay, it could have been spectacular but unfortunately it has it's short comings.

[Leo & Satan II]

Hilarious

But incredibly stupid; cocaine doesn't cause halucinations.

[Abo Loves Lakers]

Great

Hey Hayk, it's me PsychopathUltimate from YT:

Originally, I detested Abo and Karo, mainly on the grounds that you always remove the outline work.

Now that you left them in, I can finally stop stressing about that and enjoy it.

I have just one complaint though; the dimensions of the content and the stage [A.K.A. that white square on top of a grey background in flash that's always 550x400 by default] are disproportionate with each other; you either typed in the wrong width level in the uploading page or it's really disproportionate in the FLA file; I'm unsure because most of the time the content fills the screen but at other times I see white [the stage] on the sides, like at the loading page, the narration text and when Abo is yelling at the TV screen before Karo informs him that he's watching a replay from the 1970's. You either need to extend the backdrops to fill the empty space on the stage or go to the 'edit this submission' page and type in the actual width level.

One way or another, you need to fix this.

Sykohyko responds:

fixed :)

[Pico Mart]

lulz

By the end of it they all reminded me of characters from Doug =]

[Bbqbeefburgerman Rocks]

The one true god of Newgrounds finally returns!

OMFG I can't believe you're back! It's been far too long since you've struted your stuff across my 19" TFT LCD flat panel, EzMenu, 1280 x 1024 max res, .294 mm pot pitch, dual analog and DVI imput, VESA mount compatible, Energy Star compliant, Gateway PC screen.

Where have you been!? Wait, it doesn't matter now, you're singularly the last classic NG animator untouched, untainted and unbiased by time my lord.

Welcome back with open arms.
