CaptinChu's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hansel & Gretel]

A Masterpiece at best

Very excellent! I enjoyed it thoroughly! I can't wait for the next installment of the series!

P.S. It's Spanish

[TCASP Part 4 Super Mario]

Quite Funny!

@cascadorulx: They don't call him the man of steel for nothing!

[Awesome Video Games Ep22]

Highly appreciated.

In this very modern era of computer technology, it's important to understand how to use such complex and advanced devices as the Nintendo Entertainment System. I'm very thankful to have you as guides through the awesome world of televisual games.

[Really Short Cartoon ep.1]

Kinda boring.

The animation is quite sleek and sexy. I just don't find it funny. :/

That being said, though, I'm looking forward to some more really short cartoons.

[End Bear Dead Bear]

Gadol Ivrit?

Hah, I'm not even going to try. I love the Ivrit, as well as the STWPT. Shalom, brother. V'Erev Tov.

[Metal Gear Awesome 2]

Truly your Magnum Opus

With this, you have established your rank among the greatest flash animators that have existed.

[Still Alive - Portal]

Not great.

This is not a great flash. It lags at some points very badly, but I won't take off from it because of that. (It might just be my computer.

However, half the film is a computer making faces and lipsynching to a song. Certainly, that must've taken some effort. But it's not that good.

The actual animation was semi-funny. Not funny enough to get a five. Funny enough to get a four.

This is not a great flash film. However, it's comparably better than most. Good job, and best wishes in your future of flash.

[Walter Joyce]

This is very good.

Whether it was all a dream or not, and a subconscious scenario was presented based on a person he had seen on the bus before on another day, that idea is a bit odd to me. I'm not sure exactly whether what happened was a dream or not; could you please clarify that for me?

Auditory input is not the best way to control a person. Assuming that the situation did happen, was a more neurological, deeper thing going on? Was this done on purpose? If so, what purpose did it prove? Ironically, your choice of music is absolutely brilliant. I love it.

Your definition of perfect is a bit off to me. Rather than use the commonly accepted term of "perfect," you decided to use it as "average." I assume that you are talking about the experiment done on Walter Joyce, (again, making the assumption that this was not a dream.) and that "average" is "perfect" for their purposes. For that reason, you do not get "perfect" on your review. :P

Overall, to me, this movie is about the interaction of one person towards community, and how external forces have a huge impact to change that interaction. If you could, please, tell me what this project was made for; what this movie's purpose is for.

Thank you for making this most excellent movie.

Masquatto responds:

It's intentionally ambiguous. There is no definite answer given. ;]

The idea was that the auditory input was different from usual sounds in that it wasn't something consciously comprehensible, but somehow had an effect on the subconscious. If the subconscious can deduce and decide things that the conscious is unaware of, who's to say that there doesn't exist a possibility that such could be taken to the more primal levels of perception and emotion?
Glad ya liked the music.

Perfect means many things to many people. By describing the individual as "perfect," I give him enough relative connotations for the viewer to effectively build him on their own. I didn't have much time to describe Walter, and by using such a powerful word, I give the viewer an image of him they can think about and relate to without having to describe him in detail.
Indeed, the word also has meaning within the context of the movie in that Walter is the perfect candidate for the operation.
Aww.

The movie is meant to question perception and power on the most fundamental level. If your perception and subconscious reactions affect your decisions, to what extent could manipulation of your senses manipulate your choices? If you don't control your emotions, intelligence, or desires, what are you in control of? Just your tolerance of them? If someone could control those aspects in you, to what extent could they control you as a whole? How abstract is the idea? Is it really abstract at all?
In short, it's supposed to make you think. :P

Thanks. :]

[Shiftlimits:Portal Collab]

I'm GLaD

This was a triumph.

[Promenade the Puzzle]

Awfully repetitive.

This probably took loads of time and effort, and for that, kudos. My assumption is that your talking about smoking and how it's rather nasty awful. Yah.

I didn't quite understand alot of the symbolism. The medallion, for instance, threw me off. Was it a symbol of the addiction holding on to him? Some other symbolism, such as the room, also got me. Was he entrapped by some force or some troubles inside of him?

Very confusing, and after a while, repetitive. But overall, it's good.
