gridsleep's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Very Jojo Christmas]

This is why fiction is supposed to be something that deviates from reality. Using "AI" to criticize "AI". I didn't know whether to score high for the ironic metaphor or low for the derivative hypocrisy, so I split the difference.

Reply: AI fictosis! Fake fake implosion is more than my widdle mind can handle.

JojoBeanus responds:

lol, I appreciate the critique bro but no ai is used in this video. all the characters are hand drawn by me and the backgrounds I either did digitally or I got friends to paint them irl. my mom did the backgrounds at the beginning too.

[Sewerskate]

Psychedelic. Arresting animation. I just wonder if their choice of clothing means anything. He's in all goth black and she's in a bikini. Is there any video where the girl is in all black and the guy is in speedos? Just wondering. I wouldn't skate in a swimsuit any more than I'd ride a motorcycle in a swimsuit, frankly.

MP32 responds:

not sure if their design actually represents something more that "change" as a concept, but i like the interpretaton of skiping over sexual inmaturity maybe, tho, keep in mind, theyre the same person, but the pink hair one is from the past

[Prank Calling Chel (El Dorado collab scene 242)]

Why does anyone even like Europeans? Pushy, arrogant... conquistadores. Schoolyard bullies. Europe just spread around the world like a plague of schoolyard bullies. Humans are such a disappointment. No wonder all the gods abandoned this planet. It's a cultural cesspit.

The point is in modern fiction (the original film) Europeans mastery and indigenous servitude is the only cultural metaphor. White people look at the past and just stick with their guns, saying that's the way it was and that's the way it was meant to be, it has to be the right way. And it just gets glossed over. We have to say no, that history is pure corruption and will lead to destruction. See how empires fall. Yet we only continue to build empires. It is madness.

IsometricPixel responds:

Thank you very much for your response, but let's keep it related to the video next time lol.

[Chainsaw Man Dinner]

Must I watch the series to get this?

SebastianAriza responds:

Yeah probably.

Explanation below, avoid if you don't wanna know.

"Red eye girl with a scar" is a devil possessing "brown eye girl"'s body. They can switch who's in control of the body. Whoever is not in control is represented as a sort of ghost that only the reader can see.

[Bigs Perfect Cast (Sonic Shorts)]

WTF? I thought it was Eek the Cat for a second.

sodacloud responds:

I forgot that existed lol

[treats for peckii]

I don't think sugar can expire. It's like salt. It just exists. Maybe it was a weird flavor. Or maybe it was ghost candy, like Dia de Muertos candy that's made of cardboard or wood that only ghosts can taste. Like that scene in The Last Unicorn with the skull drinking from a dusty old empty bottle but being refreshed because a ghost would only drink the ghost of a drink. Who knows?

MAESTROCELESTE responds:

Or they may not really be candy, who knows.

[Paradise Takes a Bite]

Um. Enthusiastic, isn't she?

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

In all ways :D

[A Den for Sick Moths]

Lovely. It's a continuing series. I am enthused.

AntonM responds:

thank u

[Trick or Treat 💀]

Difficult to cut off a head with a kitchen knife in one swipe. Not impossible but a sword is preferable and easier on the joints. Got to avoid that tennis elbow if you want to enjoy upcoming kills. Don't wear yourself out before the big night.

Luis responds:

This was very informative. I based my animation on testimonials but its good to see real data.

[Sublo and Tangy Mustard - Casual Friday (S3E1)]

Not bad. If something seems like it needs a laugh track, it needs work.

Aaron-Long responds:

the awkward pauses are on purpose... but if they don't work for you, fair enough!
