zortharg's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[DBZ - Proctology Academy]

And 20 episodes later, he's still got his hand up goku's ass, and it's only 10 seconds later in real time. Oh I just love the look on vegeta's face when he sees who his patient is, and goku's when he sees who his doctor is, the horrified tiny eye face. Though realistically wouldn't bulma want him to work on technology with her, it would make a lot more sense that she'd hire him as an engineer for her own company since it's inevitable that he would know all sorts of things about alien technologies and have scientific knowledge not to be found on Earth, am I right? No wait a minute, did I just use the word realistically in a video about dbz? Silly me.

[Cat Face ep.1]

Well at least it's better than those horrible loop songs this guy made. Just a little FYI, when I saw "Brazil", I had to watch Rebecca Black's "Friday" just to PURGE my brain of it. And then I had to watch it again a year later because I remembered it. And now I'll have to watch it again. You made me watch Rebecca Black's Friday three times, you monster! Bra bra bra bra bra brazil. Oh god no, it's starting again! Then again, episode 21 of cat face is in the "related stuff" bar. That's almost as disturbing, that this got at least 20 sequels....

[Dot Dot Dot - Animated]

So I looked up axman13, http://axman13.newgrounds.com/ and this video is listed first under his "favorites". Apparently, some people you just can't insult, tee hee. Then again, if his comment was DELETED, I can imagine that would piss him off, being censored like that, especially since ignorant as it was, it clearly didn't contain anything it should have been deleted over (except for the fact that it called for the thing he was criticizing to itself be censored, aka blammed, to me, that's far worse than demonstrating near illiteracy or making a complaint which does not voice a popular opinion, and I'm going to bet the fact that it made a complaint which was not popular was why it was deleted), so if it was me, I may very well appreciate my comment which otherwise would have been lost not only being recovered but dipped in bronze and given special importance. Of course, I would never leave such a stupid comment in the first place.

[Calvin & Hobbes Tiger Pounce]

Best video thing ever. Ever. EVER! And that's including Donnie Darko.

[Calvin & Hobbes Dance]

I wish Watterson had been more of a sellout. Or rather, the least BIT a sellout. I'd like to go back in time 25 years, have a little talk with him, and then get back to the future to find the complete and up to date 25 season (because of course it would still be on the air) Calvin and Hobbes animated series deluxe DVD collection on my wall. Hell, that's hardly the same as Calvin and Hobbes endorsing the newest stupid vehicle to come from GM (which shouldn't still exist, the robbers) or atheia forbid Geico. Because if I saw any part of a Geico commercial with Calvin and Hobbes in it, I would have to kill myself within 10 seconds. But an animated series? Hell yeah.

Very fluid and believable. It really looks legit. Like it came from that alternate universe where there really was a C&H cartoon. And it doesn't have any voices - which is good - it's very hard to imagine what would be a good choice, so it's best to not put in anything that might ruin it (but that robot chicken sketch chose the voices pretty well).

[Mastermind 5]

Holy crap! The mastermind is a hulk-buff black man? WTF! I never even knew he was black, I just figured he was lit in dim red light. And of course you never see a black James Bond villain. So mind=blown. Maybe I'm still a little bit racist after all these decades. Nah. I would still think he was just as awesome if I met him in real life as otherwise.

But seriously, I don't like the animation change of the mastermind in general. Not just that his muscles are too big, whereas he was always in the dark before, with his body out of view. But in the first 3, the mastermind was mysterious and powerful and ominous and scary as a result, but now he's just inane and cartoony. And downright shoddy. It kinda totally RUINS the character for me, just seeing him in a well-lit room! But add to that the fact that the actual style changed, and it really hurts it bad. Not so much that it doesn't live up to the first ones, but that you've destroyed the potential fear the character inspires. I narrowly give it 3.5 instead of 3 because the trapdoor that leads to the cafeteria line is pretty funny. Even if it is kinda a ripoff of that robot chicken sketch (I think.... or was it an Eddie Izzard standup routine?) where Darth Vader's henchmen secretly play along with Vader thinking he has the power to strangle them with his mind so that he never actually kills anyone even though he thinks he has been all along, they just stand there pretending to be strangled when he holds his arm out.
