Ashenfist's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mastermind 5]

Wait...

Micheal Swaim? As in... Cracked's own Micheal Swaim? This... this cannot be possible. It's too awesome to be true... someone fonfirm or deny this for me, please! I MUST KNOW!!!

Also, the flash was awesome.

The-Swain responds:

His name ends with an M, mine with an N. Only my name is a real word <3

[I Am Dateowulf]

Well done!

The audio for Beowulf is understandably bad... most people seem to have completely ignored that the only way to access that audio for most people right now is to record it in a theater.

Besides that, it was quite entertaining, so keep doing flashes. They don't have to go anywhere, they just have to be funny... and that was funny.

AllenWAwesome responds:

Well, at least some people understand about the audio. Glad you liked it!

[God's Message]

Finally!

I'd just like to say: I love you! Seriously, do you have any idea how long I've waited to see anyone submit a flash that has a joke that actually makes one think? Great style, graphics, and good choice of theme. At first it seemed so serious that it only added to the suprise at the end when the punchline finally hit. The voice acting could use some work... but I've heard a lot worse, and I can't expect something as home-made as flash to have Bruce Willis's voice as the main character. Anyway, great job and keep submitting. I'm not a religious person, but everyone can appreciate a good joke once in a while, regardless of its base.

Godlimations responds:

woah! dude calm down heheh, well I am grateful that you have been patient for a cartoon like this :) I thank you for the feedback. Dude I like your positivity, and your constructive critisism, you are not only patient, but grateful for what has been given! well done! are you sure your not a Christian? :)

[Hiroshima.]

Very well done...

I can tell that you did your research, which is pleasing to see in any informative flash, and that you throught the whole idea through.The reason the US dropped the bomb is a sort of mix of 2. One is the massive amounts of casualties that the US suffered taking the islands... simply because the Japanese commanders orered their soldiers AND civilian to literally fight to the death. I bilieve the exact order was for every Japanese to kill 10 Americans or something similar. If the US had invaded Japan... every Japanese citizen would have died trying to kill as many American soldiers as possible... or at least most of the citizens (honor/duty was more valuable than life to them). The US didn't want the war to drag out like that... they couldn't afford for it to. Russia was advancing on the Japanese as a sort of US ally... on the condition that any land they took from Japan would become Russian land. Also, US secret services caught wind of new kinds of fighters and bombers in the works in Japan. It was confirmed several years later that Japan had been building a fleet of rocket fighters and bombers that would have destroyed any US carriers and ships coming in (flying too fast and igh to be hit by the time's ati-aircraft weaponry). In essense, the US would have been beaten back and the Japanese never would have surrendered. The US decided to instead strike fast and viciously with a weapon that they were sure would end the war without any of the above dfficulties (it's a hell of a lot faster to get a single bomber t Japan than several carrier groups). And BTW, no on in the US (not evn the makers of the bomb) had any idea how devastating it would be sice so far it had only been tested in deserts or oceans...

PauLH responds:

Wow, you say I did my research but you my friend, have mastered the situation! Alot of information that you said I never knew, wow, that is awesome. Russia was, like you said, sort of an ally (We all know the Cold War) and the US needed to end the war soon becuase if not more lives would die and more damage would happen. The atomic bomb did what it was intended to do, end the war. The cost was never imagined, you probably know the famous lines after the bomb was dropped, "What have we done?" which was said by crew member on the plane, i think.. Anyway, thank you for sharing so much information. I would look forward to you reviewing my future movies. Thank you for watching. ^_^

Well Done...

I don't care what everyone else says about everything on this flash being said to death, it was still quite profound and well put together. The speech itself was very impressive and would likely do well in a competition if you ever consider it. Anyway, everything there is to say about anything (if you think about) has already been "said to death". Even that little speech about this being said to death has been... well... said to death. Repetition is constant, so don't rant at other people for putting together a bunch of thoughts and ideas and putting their own opinion into it. After all, that's really all we are... a collection of thoughts and ideas. As for the rights to use Gir, this is a flash movie, not a published book or a TV cartoon. Copywrited characters are constantly used in other flashes all over newgrounds with or without the maker's permission. Get over it. I will say, though, that the end was pretty funny (if out of place). All in all, good job on the flash. And for all those ranters out there: try constructive critisism for once in your lives. It can't hurt.

PS: Any abusive responses as towards my spelling or grammar can go shove it where the sun don't shine! I don't feel like using spellcheck.

Da-Dinictus responds:

Appearantly, you won't need it. I don't believe I've seen such a well set up text in quite some time for now.
Actually, I used Gir Clock, a Crew member, so I merely used his character's image. Yes, it's been said to death, repetition always will remain. Can't stand it? Bring change in life as best you can.
