jthrash's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Joe Pesci is Mario!]

Didn’t expect to see Samus here! That reveal was hilarious!

[Zug: Adventure in Heat Exhaustion]

Newgrounds was down right when I tried to play this, so I watched it on YouTube instead. It’s still a fantastic and strangely de-stressing little story with funny animation either way!

[Identity (Labels 2) : Foamy The Squirrel]

Well, now I see why Newgrounds is pretty much the only place on the entire Internet that is even remotely comfortable with Foamy on their platform. I’ll…have to ruminate on this one a bit, but at least it makes me even more smug than usual about registering as an “Independent” at the DMV and thus people are more likely to listen to my opinions since it’s not clear where my biases are—at least so long as they as they don’t have the legal authority to look at my recent voting patterns…

Still, labeling myself as an “Independent” is very much the definition of labeling myself, and when you think about it, isn’t calling ourselves “humans” or even “mortals” divisive labeling, too, implying that we’re somehow better than other animals despite technically being instinct-driven animals ourselves? Sounds like getting rid of divisive labeling is going to take some work, even from Foamy. Let’s start by no longer calling every remotely-challenging, pattern-based video game a “Soulslike.”

[The Darly Boxman Show]

I remember seeing this on TV! This was a STRANGE episode of Serial Experiments Blue’s Clues Evangelion the Tank Engine…

[Spooky Spaghetty]

This had me in stitches, especially when all the random townspeople joined in at the end.

SuperPhil64 responds:

Glad it made you laugh! Carmen came up with that last scene, it was such a great idea!

[My part for FLCL Reanimated]

No seriously, how on EARTH do I watch FLCL legally? I want to watch it, but I don't know where I can easily watch it!

[Princess Daisy eating daisies]

“It’s a FREE COUNTRY!!” Since when was the Mushroom Kingdom a US State? And how could it be “free” but also a monarchy, unless it’s a “private” business in Texas or Florida? Cartoon make me think, make it stop!

[Evangelion Pixel Art Collaboration!]

I'm sure there was an attempt in a Japan-only licensed Evangelion game for Game Boy Color or WonderSwan Color or something to recreate this intro in 8-bit, and it wasn't nearly as good as this (hardware limitations aside). Great job to everyone who worked on this!

Simon404 responds:

Thanks. I hope in Japan they will also see our animation and appreciate it.

[Super Deltarune Ball]

I know this was made in GMod after looking at the software, but considering Banana Mania was made in Unity, you could have fooled me and said this was made in Unity. The lighting looks nearly identical!

[xetis and the other alien]

If the teacher had known you already do stop-motion-inspired animations for Newgrounds, they would have already given you an A+ before you even started!
