ShadenLines's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Fuck the Artists]

First off, this is the most brutally realistic & honest statement about Adobe (& the software/app industry in general) I've ever seen.

Secondly, the Adobe avatar guy is creepy as f**k...especially his head. It fits, yeah...but it's probably nightmare fuel for anyone under 16.

Lastly - if I ever had any qualms about using a not-at-all-ghetto copy of PSP or CS (I don't remember any offhand), those qualms disintegrated.

[BF and GF's Ice Cream Commercial!]

*lol* Um, okay...

It's a bit surreal, but still funny. I dig the pseudo-medical warning at the end. Clearly you've watched quite a few commercials for the latest lab junk medication of the month, put out by Pfizer/Eli Lilly/etc.

[Collab animations]

Hmm...interesting. Also somewhat surreal. If you were going for that, you succeeded.

All because of idle curiosity about what you were doing with Carl these days... Anyway, it's good.

If I ever paint Carl again, I'll have to remember she has green teeth & eyes.

Katsfire responds:

Nah she doesn't lmao, it was a colour palette animation but the project got cancelled. But thanks for checking out my other stuff :)

[The Keister Bunny Featuring Punk n' Gunk]

Let me guess: you're sick of the annual orgy of holiday commercialism too?...only difference is for you, the worst one is Easter whereas for me it's Christmas. Or did you just reel this off the top of your head.

The textures & character modeling could use a bit of improvement but overall, it's weirdly interesting.

Also - yes. If that creature showed up in my house I wouldn't tolerate it, either.

jthrash responds:

It's really not that deep. I just thought it would be funny if the Easter Bunny had some free-loader relative called the Keister Bunny that would be a burden to whatever household it decided to raid.

This was a classic example of "doing a low-poly N64-esque art style as an excuse to poop out a 3D animation much faster than if I had, at the very least, took the time to properly work around such limitations and at least made some cool-looking angular character designs and pixel textures like the best artists of the N64/PS1 era." I have since learned that I really need to take my time in the pre-production phase for 3D animation, low-res or otherwise, not rush the modeling and texturing phases just so I can get to the animation ASAP. Though that does kind of mean I won't have any more animations to show until at least 2025, I'm only one person working on this stuff, you know.

Still, glad you found it an interesting fever dream of an amateur cartoon!

[Clay Fight (old)]

I think it's kinda cool.

Have you watched any claymation or foamation films?...like any of Will Vinton's work?

SillyElixir responds:

I've seen Mark Twain movie

[mmm... beeEEeeRrrr]

Not sure what the joke is here... The animation is pretty smooth. I can say that much in this clip's favor.

[Jigglypuff biden speech]

*lol* Cute. You got the hesitated, halting speech pattern down. What would make it better is more of an "old man" voice with a pause of several seconds at least once, in the middle of a sentence.

[Animal Fact: Lobsters]

In the sequel, they should all pile on the coffin & eat Steamo. (Another animal fact: lobsters eat just about anything!)

[RIP General]

Re 2:09.68 - I didn't know you had that going on. That sucks, dear...but yeah, Yoko Ono does that to people.

riot100233 responds:

yeah

[Sketch Collab Shitpost 2023]

For a piece consisting entirely of crude sketches, it's awesome. Thank you for putting my (ahem) work into it.

I learned something from watching: shitposting is a legit skill. It's almost a kind of performance art. It looks like animation works better than still images, at least in this context.

Also, the beat fucking _slaps_. Kudos to @kidasper.

you haven't seen shitposting as an art form 'till you've seen ZabuJard's catalog
