Stanpai's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pirate Scouts - (Sailor Moon Parody) - Toonami Collab - Zaaztoons]

I kept thinking Harry Partridge made this.
Great part. Well produced in every facet.

ZaazNG responds:

Thank you so much Stanpai, getting compared to the legend Harry tingles the heck outta me <3

[MARIO WORLD made of CARDBOARD]

Very cool, very creative.
Wasn't sold on the narration initially because I prefer show vs tell, but it grew on me.

GAMESMADEOFCARDBOARD responds:

Thank you!

[Spicy Ramen! - Slow Night (Official Music Video)]

While I'm not the biggest fan of the particular aesthetic stylistically, I think this has a lot of soul to it. Production value is there, and I feel the overall Gorillaz effort going on. Mixed mode transition to 3D in the end bumped it up to 5/5 and offset the negatives.

I'd say make sure everyone records on the same mic in the same space for future dialogue and keep doing what you're doing.

[EOFS - Pilot Demo (2020)]

This is a strange video. The problem is that it just drags on way too long. I could barely get through the attendance segment.

Artistically it was like a strange anime salad fingers or something. I don't hate it.

The overall review is that this is just bizarre. I can't really sit through all of it. The many students with fat tits are... Well ok? I guess that's funny? I don't know. It's hard to understand what all this is really about or trying to achieve. I give 3 stars because of the commitment to the bit.

[Toonami Collab]

This Collab... Wow.
Watching this Collab, I felt that it was without a doubt one of the best overall Newgrounds "Collabs" ever made. The animation and art really stood out significantly, some bits being funny segments, others being beautifully animated tributes.

The biggest criticism I have is the choice to slap a pop team epic reanimated Collab on the end of this. They should have been two totally separate projects, as the PTE extends this project to the one hour mark while not offering much new to the viewer that all the other parts contributed.

I also think that it would be worthwhile to exclude the inclusion of parts specifically about IPs that already received their own Collabs in the past unless they were more crossovers.

The best part in this Collab by far was the Armstrong gym. It captures so many unique characters and their personalities while also beautifully portraying them faithfully to their original designs. Lupin part as well. Wow. Gorgeous.

I feel there was a lot of great stuff here. Honorable mention also goes to the humor of the Outlaw Star and Home Movies Gurren parts for being beautiful homages that made me laugh, everything about that Johnny Quest segment, and the Megas XLR transformation. I know I'm leaving some golden ones out but that's how many pieces were fantastic. I think this also is why PTE needed to be separated into its own Collab.

Also, please please please use more actors than just the same usual folks in everything. There are a LOT of people in the NG community that do VO- literally Corey has a whole server of them. It would be nice to hear more of them. Chris Pratt does not need to be Mario. Hopefully we will see more diverse casting in the future. This has been a problem on Newgrounds ever since the mid-2000s. Seeing the credits, there is nice enough swathe of VO credits but hopefully you understand what I mean. People like Corey and myself are booking real world VO jobs outside of Newgrounds, let's give some newbies a shot at the mic.

LuckyDee responds:

Speaking as part of said VA collab as well as VA forum mod, I'll gladly sit down with you at some point and go through your plans and ideas on how to let the spotlight shine over new faces more often. Thanks for your response!

[Video Game Bullsh!t Episode 1: Mario vs Sonic]

I have a real appreciation for the amount of effort that went into this. You really clearly put heart into making it all. I think this is something I would have tried making when I was younger if I had the tools. I really think you should keep making videos. Mario vs Sonic was the main event in the early and mid-2000s. I really am glad to see this in 2022.

If this is what you can do now, I can't wait to see what waits in 5 years or more.

Favorited and voted 4/5! Very proud to be your first "fan" on Newgrounds!

Swag-boss9k responds:

Thanks alot I'm glad that you like my content and now that I think about it it really does hearken back to 2000s flash animations,I have way more planned in the future this is just the beginning.

[The Engineer: Tiny Robot Santa]

It's Christmas in July!

It's nice to see you taking a step into fully original material and your own projects rather than collaborations. I think it was quite decently animated and sets up an interesting story. Bonus points for originality instead of being a parody/tribute.

[ORCHID PORN - Rehearsal at Hellven High]

Beautiful as ever. I loved the occasional frame breaks.
