AaronScottThomas's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Waiting For The Bus]

This is so impressive that I'm still trying to decide if it is truly claymation or if it's CGI made to look like claymation. The quality expressions on the giraffe's face, and the smoothness of animation are both incredibly rare to see in claymation. Either way well done.

[RETRO ARCADE ANIME: R-TYPE]

Really well animated and designed. An impressive piece from start to finish.
My only complaint would be the voice acting. The main character's rant at the video game made him instantly unlikable, and the dialogue in general was read with no enthusiasm. It seems a shame because everything else is constructed with such love and care. If you can get a better read of the script, the whole thing would be perfect.

[Be Better Than Equal]

George Orwell would be proud. I mean, I don't know for certain that he would, but really this is a brilliant sort of miniature sequel to the original Animal Farm. You've done a brilliant job capturing and modernizing the style of the original novel. I want this to be shown in schools after students read the book.

AlstonJones responds:

Wow! Thank you so much for your praise and I hope you're right about Orwell's reaction. As a side note, I have a friend who teaches high school English and he has shown this to his students after reading Animal Farm. Your wish has come true, at least for a few kids!

[The Panther Kids!]

Was funny, but trying to figure out why it was a Black Panther parody, since it didn't really have anything to do with Black Panther at all, except that one of the characters looked like Black Panther. That distracted me a little from fully enjoying the cartoon. Like you could have replaced Black Panther with an overly aggressive camp counselor, rather than try to shoehorn a topical subject onto your animation.

[Harry Potter and the Portrait of what Looked Like a Large Pile of Ash]

Not bad, but ProZD did a much better reading of it.

[Insane McCain]

Being anti-fascist is actually everything the US stands for, and everything soldiers like McCain fought for.

[TRUMP BUILDS A WALL]

We can only hope this is the most he gets done...

[If No Man's Sky Was Multiplayer]

Man that game would have been at least twenty percent more fun with this...

[Battleship Cathy]

This was awesome and very cleverly written.
