Alter-native's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Entertainment]

This Is A Must See!

This flash talks about entertainment and popular culture as viewed through a cynical lens.

It yammers about how our favorite novels, comics, video games, movies, tv shows, and radio dramas affect our minds in a subtle forms of brainwashing.

Nullifying us from the outside world, and feeding our minds with impracticalities while sensationalizing actions that go against our ethics as "cool". (Hey, who doesn't think it's awesome when Milton shoots up an office building?... Well I guess a minority on that but...). Not to mention that it is all distracting us from the real horrors and problems of the word.

The flash also hits the nail on the head on the subject of taking things seriously. For if you take this message word for word, you're a batshit insane conspiracy theorist on same levels of Timothy McVeigh! D: And thus, further proving that there is no escape but "escapism."

My only problem with this flash though is Jesus &#$%! Look at the file size! Be kind on Newgrounds server, okay? Shrink it down to something reasonable that fits in my screen like maybe just 1 MB or better, 738 KB. Tom Fulp (The MAN!) doesn't like that.

This has been Alter-native, and I never appear on the internet, except on the internet... LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH!

akoRn responds:

believe me, I tried to shrink the size as much as possible. Even lower down the quality of the sound and everything. Sorry tom! hehe
thx for the review/comment

[Old Man & the Sea-Abriged]

I Love That Book.

Ernest Hemingway is the MANliest author ever!

[DOTS -perspective fun-]

A Good Experiment At Least.

I can see you have a deep desire to animate, and show others artistic techniques.
At first it is nothing special, but then the gradient balls come in. It's very abstract then most flashes you'll see here.
The music (which is from Zelda: The Ocarina of Time), fit well with the almost carnival-esque display of dots.

BigTippi responds:

Thank you; I'm glad that you saw my efforts and the progression of the creation as it grew.

[Use Your iMagination!]

A Good Satire on Post-2000 Entertainment Culture.

It's straight and to the point. You don't need to spend over 9000 dollars on the latest, big-screen TV, with surround sound and 3D imaging. Plus, no downloads and no fee! Imagination is free!

"Imagination is more important than knowledge..."

[it'll be okay in the end.]

...And In Addition To That...

...There will always be more fish in the sea.

(This entry was simplistic, but effective nonetheless. Good luck on your next entry.)

[Lucky Day Forever-trailer]

Hot Damn! I Can't Wait!

The animation is just gorgeous. That mega metropolis is really thriving with life and business. Plus, this one looks like it's going to be a real emotional drama as well with developed characters.

So what's this movie about?

[All Aboard the Pain Train]

Heh Heh. CN Real. That IS Hell.

Because when the "Cartoon" Network stops playing 24/7 cartoons, you know it can't get any worse than that!

Good animation, and darkly humorous. Good Job.

[Operation: Graveyard]

Top Notch!

This is martial action at its finest, frame by frame animation and all. The art pretty crisp too, and nice to see Nene become an action girl now and then.

So lemme guess, Darnell's gonna come next and be the one to rescue Nene right?

[Batman Gets Pranked]

Classic Prank, But There's A Gaping Plot Hole...

Why is the Joker in the Wayne Manor? Why is Batman still wearing his mask in the shower? In fact, why is he even parading as his superhero persona in this supposed Wayne Manor? Is this even Wayne Manor? Maybe this is not Wayne Manor, maybe this is some other person's home, like Vicki Vale's or someplace, and Batman is just here for that person's protection, but he needed a shower because he smelled real bad, so he decided to take one for the request of the housemate, but the Joker managed to sneak into the household, and snuck into the bathroom just to pull that prank before causing more trouble like holding the housemate hostage. Or Maybe, the supposed person who Batman is supposed to protect in the house IS the Joker, because the Joker is really good at disguising himself, and The Joker actually arranged this just so he could pull that prank. Or maybe, this is just another random DC "elseworld" where the Joker and Batman are a gay couple.

RobsonStudios responds:

haha i was originaly gunna make it Alfred, but joker is just the best! and he kept his mask on because come on, thats just funny!
