olaftheblue's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The hat]

Nice work

I see you're Norwegian... Have you read any of Jason's comics? Something about your style (not your way of drawing, but your way of telling a story) reminds me of him.

(And that's a compliment.)

Stå på!

Olivertwist responds:

Thanks! That -is- a compliment, I love his works! (Hvis du er Norsk; Kanskje du husker en postkortserie hos KortSagt med tre motiver - alle i svart hvitt. Det er min tegnestil.

[Joker North Show 1]

Uhm ...

Team Antonsen are great, but I must confess I prefer movies with a little originality. You just ripped the TV show idea.

Also, I doubt this makes very little sense for people who don't know the concept of the original Joker from Norsk Tipping, so ... If I were you, I wouldn't have posted this on an international site. It's about as funny as joking with Bondevik. It is fun if you know who he is, and everybody in Norway knows who he is, but it's not funny on an international stage. Just my opinion.

Great concept, but as we all know you didn't make the concept. And it's not as funny as the original.

Skybert responds:

I think you need to learn how to read. In the preloader it clearly says: "Thanks To: Team Antonsen for their idea, which we just copied :)" And which means that there is their concept. And we are just making a cheap "add-on" as you might call it. We also do salute the team antonsen team for this. We hardly take any credit for this ourselves.

Saying a things is it not funny is the most stupid and ignorant thing you can ever do. People have different meanings of whats funny and what not. So dont pull that one.

The jokes here are based out of the "Joker Nord" system. Which includes that a lot of weird things happen and you are not supposed to understand much of it (except the host).

And i point out once more. Its not a RIPoff its an ADD-on.

[Xylus and Dexter: Special]

Beautiful

The second I saw the first word get a red line under it, I knew it was a five.

[MAX]

A few questions ...

How did he manage to enter the prison - the door was never unlocked. And how did the big guy know Max' mission? Not my style at all (too much blood and gore), but if this is an early work it's very obvious you will be a GREAT flash artist. You do many things right (although it's not my style, but that's not your problem). Maybe you should have added some credits? OK, you've done a lot yourself, but not the music, assumably not the sounds ...

But heck, it's a good movie for those who likes these kinds of movies, especially if you work on your drawings (it would look better if the characters appeared human).

Lykke til - håper å få se flere filmer fra deg i framtida.

[One Ring to Rule ThemAll3]

Great

As everything from you guys this is superb. A question of curiosity: Will that Tetris-movie ever be made? Awesome idea.

[FF7: About Random Battles]

Fantastic

I have been watching legendaryfrog stuff all day, and I would have expected at least a wee tiny bit of it to be a little bad. But no. Everything is just excellent. I don't have the time to review each and every file right now, but I'm voting five for all of them. Also, you're the first author to make it into my favourites. Great humor, nice art, sweet sounds.

Loved the random attacks bit (although I know nothing about Final Fantasy), but I just had to play that game (brilliant game, by the way) until I had all of the bonus scenes. Man, you're the greatest. The only thing that beats this must be Kerrigan (which I unfortunately only know the cute cartoon version of so far - I will check closer into the real Kerrigan asap. This is great!).

[Nerd]

Funny

Eyh, *I* want to be a nerd! :-) Well, still, I like the cartoon. Good job, especially for an early work. Good humor too.

voodoo-chicken responds:

I saw your "nobody wants to be a nerd" in your little mock tutorial. Could that have possibly come from this? If it did, Im flattered. If not, then Im baffled by the coincidence. Once again, good tutorial. Brilliant. I put it in my favorites.

[A Microsoft Future]

A good movie with a GREAT ending

I have to agree with a previous reviewer: When I've used Microsoft products for so many years, I really should have seen that one coming. But no. :-)

You build up a nice "horror" scenario (though I guess in a _real_ Microsoft commercial the music would have been happier, and the ad would be crammed with happy children hugging virtual Microsoft kittens or things like that to show the GOOD sides of world domination, but I prefer it just the way it is. :-) Good job on finding that music, too.

I would have liked this as a horror scenario too, but the funny twist in the end makes everything just ... I think the word I'm thinking of is "surreal". I love to be surprised like that. What would REALLY have made it better is if I had watched it in fullscreen. :-)

I guess as this is a review I should have given you suggestions for improvements, but I just can't think of any. Except for the kittens, of course. :-) Keep up the good work!

(this is my first review ever, so sorry if I screw anything up)
