ZekeySpaceyLizard's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bittersweet Symphony]

game over man. game over.

Wow.

Much like the earlier SPEED OF SOUND collab, this is nothing but eye candy. So much eye candy in fact, that one cant notice it all in one watch. Some of the prettiest flash graphics I've ever seen. Particularly the second-to-last bit with the red-head guy.
The lip sync is way off for me though. I assume on the high quality version it matches up, as opposed to this compressed version.

Either way, this made my day.

[:: A-Gore-Aphobia ::]

sigh.

Well I'm glad you decided not to make pornography this time.

But these cartoons are still poor. Same drawings and art reused for three years now.

Why?

[Animals]

Hmm. Theme.

On the surface it's obvious (to those with an imagination) that the people on the seat ride are heading to the afterlife having been deceased for whatever reason. They are split into groups. Some got to go in the large tower with the elevator inside which the viewer assumes goes to heaven.
The others are stuck in their crates.
At first one assumes that these ones are going to hell, but there is a distinct lack of pain, or regret. Only silence and people whispering amongst themselves. No emotion.
I believe that place the ones in the crates went to to be purgatory.
The reason they are there isn't known, except for the old man. When the lights go on in the room, the flashback shows his death, which one assumes was suicide. People don't just unintentionally fall off bridges after all.
I think the theme has to do with how in many religious scriptures it is said that those who kill themselves are stuck in limbo or purgatory. A quiet place between heaven and hell where there is nothing.
They are stuck there, only with their own thoughts. The old man is left with memories of his life and his death when he gave up.

Am I anywhere near correct on what you were trying to convey here or am an idiot and way way off?

also, good cartoon, very stylized, you always make good stuff etc etc blah.

AtmosGames responds:

You are right in a sense. The old man was a "good guy" yes and preached and junk, but when tested with pain and the death of his child, he "gave up" on Jesus. but the point is Jesus didnt give up on him. he weant to heaven. boo ya end of story. ya and also this: many religous scriptures and idiots talk about suicide leading to hell, but the point is the bible never talks of suicide, which made this movie a bit tricky for some.

[TSM Presents: FUCK you]

mmm

the goatse collab this brought back fond memories of

TheSoulMan responds:

best collab ever really

[Zekeylizard was birthday.]

lmfao

oh man badger.

i laughed very hard.

[Love You]

cute

gotta like these shorts that have a bit of cryptic ending

I can see the colorless characters and grey shades were a design choice.

overall it was cute.

the only thing you might want to remember, is that if you are gonna import a bitmap into flash, make sure it's HUGE so when you zoom in, it doesn't get all pixxely.

Of course for all I know, that might have been intentional.

good day!

Lambinvoker responds:

Thanks a bunch for reviewing, Zekey. Means a lot to me. =)

[Madness: Deus Ex Machina]

wow.

that was gorgeous.

[Kite Plight]

:D...

smooth and wonderful like all your stuff.

also interesting that this seems to be a flash exported as a video as opposed to the raw swf.

but I assume the SWF must be MASSIVE.

[TANKMEN 2]

cute

Probably not the reaction you want, but the wee superdeformed character styles, and the black and white design make everything in this look so huggable.

yep.

and i am out of things to say.

JohnnyUtah responds:

i thought i read "huggable" as "horrible" for a sec

close one

thanks zekey

[RWD: 003]
