AerialNinja's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic: Nazo Unleashed Pt2]

Sonic with DBZ and a little Naruto thrown in too.

Nice! I watched the first part and I wasn't that impressed but this one was much better. Excellent use of the audio clips and some really nice animation. I really enjoyed that, I found it particuarly funny when they got the A rank, and the extra life sound effect when Sonic, Tails and Knuckles reunited. Since when has Knuckles had healing powers? Did I miss something? Anyway good job, keep it up.

Chakra-X responds:

Well all characters could 'heal' in Sonic Battle, and the ring sounds implied that he was giving rings to Tails.

[Naruto Mix]

Needs work

It's clearly drawn inspiration from the Ultimate Naruto Fan Flashes, if this was done out of respect then that's fine, but you should have credited the author because it appears like you're just trying to steal the idea.
A few of the drawings were very good, but for the most part they needed work, for example Naruto's shoulders are blue and it looked very wrong without it.
I didn't think the music was very well chosen, the relevance to the characters was minimal.
I would recomend coming up with your own ideas next time, you'd have a difficult time improving on the UNFF.

Thanks for the input

[Yugi!...oh...]

meh...

Although the movie had a few good laughs, most of it wasn't funny.
I don't think this can be classed as a Yu-Gi-Oh! parody anyway, as it has so little to do with the actual show. The jokes aren't based around actual events, characters or themes from the show, just taking the name and image of Yugi. I don't really think it's fair to say that the characters in Yu-Gi-Oh! are obsessed with dueling as well, of course 99% of the show is them deuling or talking about dueling, but then that's what the show is about isn't it. It wouldn't have been the success it was if they spent half the episodes going off and doing other things.
The graphics and sound quality are not good, this is forgivable if the content of a movie is good, but this wasn't good enough.

RogerregoRRoger responds:

well the fact it's about carding shouldnt mean the character are really unable to come up with alternative solutions.

[Sonic Hedgehog Nutshell]

Not funny

There wasn't a single decent joke in this that I can recall, and other than humour there wasn't anything else it had going for it. Besides, Sonic already has a back story, which explains why he is blue, and why Robotnik is the way he is. If you're going to make fun of it at least stick to the actual storyline.

Vaztor responds:

Care to enlighten me on this backstory please?

[Hyuuga Neji vs Rock Lee]

Boring and unoriginal

Firstly, I don't care what other people say, spelling and grammer IS important, when it's incorect the viewer is forced to concentrate harder than they should have to, and I'm sorry but this movie does not merit that much concentration.
The fighting didn't even slightly excite me, I'm a huge Naruto fan and Neji and Lee are two of my favorite characters, but I really didn't care who would win in the slightest.
If you're going to make these 'sprite character VS another sprite character' movies they need to offer something more than just the two sprites bashing at each other, it's just boring.

Mini-Speed1 responds:

O....K.....so,I should take more time on grammer...

[The Mushroom War]

Not so much a war, but a skirmish...

Not bad, I really liked the concept and there were some very nice parts, the music was very well chosen too.
My problem was I felt it was all leading to something bigger that never happened. When you start talking about the koopas as an army, the viewer is going to want to see it. I was just waiting to see an army of 50+ koopas storm the castle or come into confrontation with 50+ toads. Seeing Mario and Luigi play DBZ with the hammer bros isn't enough to satisfy the expectation that had been created.
All in all good job though. Keep it up.

Trunks responds:

Yes, Sorry about that. Now I have to clarify this: This was a skirmish to SPARk a war.. it isn't the war itself. Bowser send a couple troops to antaginize the forces. Guess that wasn't as clear as I thought it was.. sorry :)
