BlueHippo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[HEADACHE: Mind's Eye]

He certainly reached that cosmic amoebic state. To become an entire puddle of goo only to have to reform orientation, just to be hurled back into the same cycle.. ah beautiful. Your blurple galaxy and little twinkling stars are a delight on top of the eye candy that was the main feature. Absolutely delectable.

BoyPorcelain responds:

Thank you!! Glad you liked it and I'm glad I changed the galaxy to that colour, it used to be red/pink but id say this works way better!

[The Normal Pill]

What a rollercoaster. The sound work was also a great part of all of this. The guitar reminded me of some breaking animal collective stuff as the pill started to crumble my mind. The frame by frame was stellar and loved the granulation effects as it all came together. Really well done. Oh yeah and the grey people vacuuming reminded me of when the police officer eats the chips in 2 in the am/pm, a personal favorite of mine. A TON of potential for whatever you decide to accomplish next!

[Musk to Mars]

Ay there ol boy, wonderful toon ya got here. Take the route 66 straight to interstellar highway. Looks like team Tesla's blasting off again!

Also hi I miss you, it was good to hear your voice ;)

[Strawberry Clock's Here For You]

Thanks a lot for the inspiration I will need to make it through all of this. What better candidate to help me take a look at the times than my old talking clock friend?

Bhave.

[YOLO 2]

This was incredible. I thoroughly enjoyed watching every slap happy overly excited DRUNKEN FUN TIME party second of it. After watching this I dove into some of your other works.. after watching YOLO the original, the gaps were filled in. However, the initial confusion and watching these two videos in backwards order almost made it even better.

Absolutely splendid. I hope you make it big, sir.

[My Screen Name]

*slams hands on keyboard and writes review*

A lovely little short mister muffin! I love the 11 year old version of you... Were the talking smileys even popular back then? I remember things like Comet Cursor but not the talking smileys... but oh the Neopets, I remember getting wrangled up into that mess at one point, heh. I love your facial expressions as you visit the various sites... as always, your character designs are great, with nice FBF. Your style is simple, but very clean and... oh noes, meatspin'd... poor lil fella. So... you got your interest in muffins from muffin films, and was your flash inspiration? Very nice, I had an interest in muffins already when I came across that website... good stuff. Homestar was my inspiration for flash... but that has nothing to do with BlueHippo... hmm, my story probably would have been rather dull and boring.. did you have to lie a little bit about where your name came from to make the story more interesting? I loved your version of the muffin cartoon; the muffins with mustaches fills me with great glee! Oh yeah, your current chappy self looks very educated and proper, I can see that flash has turned you into a REAL man... I wish I had a monocle :( Great short, hope it does well on ABS.. you've gotten me interested in this TOFA, I'll have to look it up! Keep up the good work as always :)

[The Food Collab]

Mmmm, foooood!

Nice work from everybody! Boogley, you have some nice FBF work, nice and colorful, and very happy! BornToByte, your style was cute, the muffin wearing the makeup makes me giggle ;P I also like your movie-trailer voice acting ;D BudGP, your part was rather short, and pretty random... your stawberry's grin almost makes him look deranged, haha. FrameSlinger, your two entries were nice... but a little dark, heh. That poor tomato, I could feel his pain as the blade sliced through him! And those bananas, oh my! I like how they were bandaged up at the end, heh, pretty cute ;3 *BlueHippo has a flashback to giant banana peeling him when he was a wee hippo* AAAG! Never again, honest! Gatling, I honestly couldn't tell that he was in the ground at first, until he was pulled up... but I suppose drawing dirt all over him would have looked bad, loved the carrot's big ol eyes! Kweaks, didn't really like the gradient on the banana, some hand shading would have probably looked better.. looks like you're gonna make some soup, mmm! Lard Lad, very random, almost like an intermission *taps toes* MarcyVF I loved the tomatoes's facial expression, the joke was a little old, but he just looked so damn cool while saying it ;P Markylyne, think you could work on your shading a bit, never really liked that zigzag shading style.. it reminds me of someone specific but I can't recall who it is. I suggest watching a lot of flash, and trying to imitate some of your favorite authors' shading styles, and you'll pick up on how it's done. One of my shading role models is Stamper... he does his shades and highlights so damn good, arg! There's always room to grow :) Moro(?), your tomato started off looking very strange, almost like a butt (teehee) with eyes all the way down at the bottom. The transformation was pretty random, but had some nice fbf transition. Poor lil fella, looks like it hurt! NicholasDeary, oh hey buddy.. interesting sprite style here, the wink which appeared to be just a tween on his eye looked a little weak... I think a FBF in the same style would have worked better. Revels, think your trees in the BG could use some work... shouldn't have copy+pasted them, either, heh. I'd still eat that apple even after it threw up.. Satan112, your style almost looked bitmap traced, but was much smoother.. interesting. Slodd, Each of your entries had a different style, all were colorful and pleasing to examine with my little eyes ;3 SteelSoldier, two interesting parts... was that second one from like, DBZ or something? I got that impression. Tommy, I liked your style. Simple, yet some nice animation, and I also enjoyed your character designs, nice lip syncing as well :) Rung, need to work on your shading... also, slightly racist? heh. UberCream, pretty silly, interesting line art style... not a fan of the bitmap traces though. xHeavyMetalx, I suppose your part WAS kinda metal. Scchpoik (that's the sound of a tomato exploding). Once again, nice work guys, turned out to be a nice collab :)

TheBoogley responds:

Dear god... :U

[RWD: 016 PUSSY]

Mrrow

A nice little short, Hans. Too lazy to fix the fuckup in the lip syncing? Oh well, an arrow explaining MISTAKE is good enough I guess ;P I liked the weaved-ish layer you had on top of your flash, gave it a nice interesting feel. I felt like poking that red cat in the eyes... They were just bulging and asking for it! I liked the body he had at the beginning... why wasn't his pink pants under the filter layer? I guess his nose wasn't either.. I liked the blue demonic looking cat who singing by flapping his head, with a neck that looks like intensities... lovely. Glad I got to see the real you on Stickam at the mod meat... I can tell that it's just you being you when you have the cats on your hands, haha. Damn yousa crazy mofukka. I've been a fan of the RWD since they came out, and the group only continues to grow and be awesome. Great work, PS seek mental help ^_^

AlmightyHans responds:

I'm glad you reviewed. I used to live in Dallas. Fuck you. As for that "Mistake" thing, it technically isn't a mistake, i had worked so hard on that lip synch that when the time came to stop it, i was like... AWWW let's have the viewer see that again. So i just made it keep going to show it's beautiful-ness. Yeah, those cat eyes remind me of putting those sugar pellets on cupcake frosting, you know how they make those wrinkley things around them when you press them on. as for the texture on the pants, i over-laidthe texture so with some colors it just doesn't appear. I was glad to see you on the cam as well, you provided much inspiration for drawing "teh peoplez". And thanks for actually talking to people on the cameras so that it didn't become a sort of survailence camera on you guys over there. ;)

Finally, i'm glad to be a part of the RWD. So far it seems real coolies.

[Blockhead: Quick Shot 2]

Swell stuff Swain.

What? Aw man, your gf didn't come tear you away from the computer? That's how it happened when we were your blockheads, preventing you from ever finishing that game. Glad to see you got something done while working on that massive game... must have felt nice to be animating instead of coding furiously ;P I like your cartoon version of yourself... was expecting it to kinda look more like your "staff style" pic... you look so beaten and worn out, as I'm sure you really are. As always, top notch animation, some great FBF and facial expressions... and now, just to be a dick I will point out some things I noticed. For one, I notice that you don't really have fingers while typing (the blurred MC), if they were down just a tiiiiny bit more, you'd only be able to see his knuckles, which I assume was your intention. Also I notice some missing fills, but I'm OCD and always fix those... even though it's just pissing away time. I liked that you censored yourself as you got angry. Now, stop reading this review and get back to work on your game!

[NG Turns 13]

Oh that zany beta carotene clock

I wasn't aware that the NG tank was a schizophrenic but it all makes sense to me now. Well, the animation was basically the same symbol used over and over again, however, the outstanding voice acting made up for it. I see you're also a day late.. did you need that big smelly oaf Tom to remind you that yesterday was NG's birthday? Any good NGer would have known that yesterday was NG's birthday. C'mon Carrot, get with the times.
