Dizimz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Menai Chronicles: Reclaimation Teaser]

Well shit dude if you needed proof reading you could always send me a transcript.
I might not have time to play through a whole game but i can def do a proof read.

If i could give some unsolicited advice too, when it comes to trailers. Less is more in the future try to reach that 1:30 mark. Best of Luck

Blackan responds:

Thanks Diz, I could use a proof reader/ spell checker
I'll try and keep it shorter next time XD

[The Artist]

Understanding the industry, I really like this animation.

The thing about a career in art is that it takes more than just a boat load of talent and skill.
It is a very difficult field. It is sickening to how often people will expect you to work with little to no pay. Just go to freelance.com if you want a good example.

It is bad enough that many artist have to start out pro bono just to build a portfolio.

With that said, freelancers also need to learn to stop lowering their price just to get the job. I understand full well that in tough times, the almighty dollar will overtake self respect, but hear me out.

Quality artists and designers need to stop altogether accepting low paying jobs, that is the first step to gaining respect. After all, why should a business or company pay you top dollar when someone of comparable skill is willing to accept peanuts.

There is a real good message here, light hearted, but very genuine.

Unfortunately I see no indication that the industry intends on changing.

[Star Wars: Han Shot First]

A nice little short, the only thing that irritated me was that the ad was longer than the clip lol

good work other than that trivial annoyance that is in no one a stab at the quality.

Artwork and animation is good, sound is good, etc With that said don't stop improving.

Best of luck and I hope you can top this one in the future

[Global Warming?]

well i agree with the message almost entirely

Yes global warming seems to be happening. or so that prick gore tells us.

i havent noticed it getting hotter.

in fact the hottest year was 1998, 10 years ago huh, so what are we approaching an iceage?

anyhow i like the message and the character.

I will adress the people. Ethenal is a environmental and economic catastrophe.

to make ethanol wed have to plowdown rainforests, forests and wetlands

destroying the animals and environment you ethanol lovers wanna protect.

Its cost is nuts and is a net negative economically.

ethanol is bullshit.

Global Warming Im 50% sure is bullshit

The earth goes through trends. 40 years ago, melting the icecaps were encouraged cause we thought we were in a cooling faze (we were in fact)

but algores ignorant. And his leftist followers are morons. who never heard of the global cooling crisis back in the 70s.

I mean that concert he threw for GW awareness. what a dick. THE LAST THING THE WORLD NEEDS IS ANOTHER CONCERT.

Watch penn and tellers bullshit. check out the internet skeptics site.

these guys dig for facts. find real scientists with real studies. And further more unlike the politics who tell us to either save the world or make more money,

these guys passionately work and study the facts.

Remember politics arent scientists. And A failed polition like Al fucking Gore is certainly not a scientist. Hes just a loser who cant step down from the public eye gracefully.

If i were him id shut up cause hes really getting annoying now. Scaring our naive citizens cause he doesnt want his 15 minutes of fame to end

[Dual Arms: Precipice]

not bad here is some constructive criticism.

first off your choice in music. FFX to zanarken?
well its a cool tune but as of now it is so overused its not funny. that soaks your originality.

on the scene where it zooms out from the train. it is disperportionate to the rest of the environment. nothing big just ruins what could be a good scene.

the japanese kanji. I gotta ask. did you use japanese font and simply type " dual arms" with it. if so that title kanji is more than likely incorrect.

also the obscure text being used. (japanese kanji probably), do you understand it yourself. Probably not right?
So maybe not do the japanese text. It can look cool but in this case it was tacky.

The rest is decent. Nothing i can criticise directly. Just keep practicing.
and maybe change your username. to something other than RPGsROK. just me being picky, take no offense. Keep it as is. Just try to develop a more recognisable name. thats all

good times.

yours truely Dizimz

RPGsrok responds:

Thank you very much for reviewing. Yours was the lowest score, but the most constructive. I'll address your issues one by one.

I wasn't aware that "To Zanarkand" in particular was overused. Where have you heard it (other than in FFX)? I am aware, however, that "Misirlou" isn't the most original tune out there. Still, do you imply I should go for more obscure songs? That's fine actually, (but I have no experience in recording original tracks).

I know exactly what your talking about with the disproportions with the train. I'll fix that (maybe upload a new version later. . .) as best I can.

Okay, I admit to taking the semi-random kanji for the reservoir thing in the end, but I am proud to say the the Dual Arms "katakana" was translated by me personally, into the phonetic "dyuuru aamusu" as it should be. Nonetheless, I'll certainly refrain from writing stuff I really don't know in the future.

Finally, I agree that RPGsROK isn't the greatest name ever but I wasn't aware we could still change our usernames. If you can, please PM me if only to tell me how (could've sworn you couldn't change names since the site upgrade. . .)

Thanks a lot, the review was very helpful. (PS, Fear Unlimited 2 is awesome, keep it up)

[:Blobs 2- pt1 NightBrawl:]

submit to youtube but not here

Im sorry this sites for FLASH animations not movies.

Im sure soem was flash but youre invading our territory. Dont.

faceofdoomness responds:

I already did post them to youtube and knox does this kinda stuff too and he has created a big following. I mean there's even a claymation section in the archives and what not. So as of now claymation is considered a type of flash thanks to Knox and his Blue Klaymen.
