BickerySebastian's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[JAMES!!!]

Oh joy. Another "James Bear" video. This is as original as Major Cloog. Like okay, if you wanna parody James' artstyle, go for it, go for the effort because at least with that, there IS effort for it. I know that for videos that doesn't have actual voice acting, he uses a more standard mouth flaps approach that lots of anime use generally, but here... No, not really, it's more or less a cycle. Visually... it barely looks like anything like the videos mainly because the silhouettes barely match at all. The eyes is a BIG sore thumb, mainly because James NEVER draws the eyes this big and it's extremely inconsistent. Audio wise... well nobody's gonna get anal about it BUT NONETHELESS, I don't like it. A lot of the dialogue "language" is just recycled Isabelle's animalese, which is what the videos USE... but not the same audio because it actually uses animalese.js, a more or less experiment that tries to replicate how animalese works in Animal Crossing.
Chances are be a man of your word, if I expect a parody of a work and you say you put effort into it, the result SHOULD be the result of that at the very least. And reminder, this isn't me defending James like at all. I'm just saying my grievances with THIS video.

FetusAnimation responds:

I’m sorry that the animation didn’t appeal to you in particular but I never copied off of anyone when it comes to the dialogue and also the lip sync is bad yes and I could improve but why are you criticising the fact that the parody wasn’t accurate to the original source material who cares the guy fucked his 12 year old sister and also being a parody doesn’t mean make it super super accurate to the source. Sorry that it sucked for you. Also I never claimed that “effort” was put in it’s obvious I made it in a day. I hope this was helpful and apart from the fake claims it’s a solid review thanks for posting have a nice day mate. EDITED: Also I didn't know about the animal crossing sound thing until I uploaded it so if it REALLY bothers you that much I'll take down the video and add better animal crossing sounds.

[Companies when it turns June]

Oh wow, a riveting animation about how companies pander to the LGBT+ in every June. Just like how this animation's pandering to old hat memes. There's barely any twist or anything substantial added to it that would at least made me think "Okay, you know what? Sure, it's the same meme over and over again, but I kinda like it this take so might as well give it a HIGHER score.".

point taken, but no.

[KyansWorldCartoon Shorts: Draw Me]

Conveniently, it's Asexual day as of writing this review (April 6th.) and this animation made me realize what does it feel like to be an aromantic and watching scenes that are either lewd and/or romantic; absolute discomfort. Aside from that, what more do you want me to say? The animation's very bare and doesn't have anything like lip syncing. Also no animation for totally not CyansWorldCartoon drawing Rule 63 totally not CyansWorldCartoon so that one's a missed opportunity. This isn't a French girl he's drawing, he's drawing like one of his mares for /mlp/.

KyansWorldCartoon responds:

Oh, My Bad.

[GOLDY SHOWTIME TEASER]

Audio mixing is AWFUL, sometimes the audio leans into the left or right for no reason at all. No, I'm not saying this because I have NO idea on how to use stereo, it's that when there's two characters, one left and right, I don't expect both of them to be loud on my LEFT ear.

GOLDYOFFICIAL responds:

Thanks for your opinion, maybe in going to correct this things

[New Discord Logo!]

Stale old Discord jokes from 2 years ago that while you might say it's still relevant, it becomes a old hat.
Am I the only one that thinks a parody of "To Catch a Predator" would at least let me give a WAY higher rating? Because if you know why the show got cancelled, then you know why I would do that.
EDIT: Hiiiii I'm back from July 2024. Man this aged REALLY horribly.

Cloog1 responds:

I thought this was actual criticism until I saw your profile. All you do is rate 0 anything.

[Dhar Mann: Mikey and Jay's Future Life Outside Of Prison...]

Remind me what was this supposed to be?
Because it feels like it IS a Dhar Mann video despite being called a "parody." Like it's straight up some justice porn where the good guys ALWAYS gets the good stuff while the parents are straight up bad and gets consequences from it. If it was a parody, like having the parents ACTUALLY kill their sons rather than getting arrested for attempted murder, then at least it doesn't deserve 0 stars. But it doesn't guarantee a higher rating because it's GoAnimate, do I need to explain why it sucks so much?
Also, no, Newgrounds' copyright policies aren't worse than YouTube. Read the Movie guidelines and just replace the audio that got the original removed in the first place. There's a reason why it boldly recommends you use the Royalty Free Music page because NG doesn't have the same resources as YouTube when it comes to copyrighted works.

[Grand Thaft Auto SanAndreas Animate]

The animation isn't even accurate.
-The phones in the animation doesn't even reflect the time San Andreas takes place in, which is 1992.
-The Ballas are apparently a gang of white people instead of a gang of black people.
The animation is pretty lackluster and the audio isn't AS good because some characters are too quiet.

TheMisterD responds:

yeah, an improvement can be seen over the years
