In March it's not usually warm but this year it is

This is a classic, as masterpiece, I can't find words !
You really kick absurdity's butt with this gem.

Hopes rides ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE !!!!!!!

I watched it then went hit the hay. But I felt wrong, there was a guilt inside of me, some sort of fairy creature twisting the intestines of mine. I had to review this, I had to ! Thus I cometh back, and here I stand.

I will make a long review like in the good ole yores.

First of all, before even talking about the movie etc. I saw the little icon, depicting a robot, and immediately, in the deep of me, I was dissapointed. Robots story for Paranoid Android ? That's not raking an ounce of risk about the interpretation and stay close-minded to the title. It's a lack of originality ; even if your interpretation were wrong, but the movie containing other things than bots I'd be giving props.

Time to watch, and my first surprise is the high-fi sound of the song. Goob job for that, we needed a high quality version of this incredible song. But I'm not talking about the flick, am I ?
I took some time reading the lyrics, and I am not quite sure your ideas fit with their contents. In fact, you took a rather cliché plot. Some unloveable robot lost faith into love and life and shall beat the shit outta these effin' lovebirds ! I say "rather" because the android's madness is a good point, still not the most original. And oh, he found love and die afterwards. This bugged me, this is so melodramatic it's embarrassing.

The animation is poor. Okay, I know these are machines, they don't have articulations thus fluid movements, yet it seemed stiff, even for robots. Just moving stuff, rotating, shrinking and unshrinking. When he destroys the people on the street, I didn't feel like he was smashing them hard enough to break them apart, whilst the music was playing loud. That's a grand dissapointment and unfitting achievment. The ending was swell though.

Minn besti vinur hverju sem dynur
Illum látum, í faðmi grátum
Ég kyngi tári og anda hári
Þegar að við hittumst
Þegar að við kyssumst
Varirnar brenndu, höldumst í hendur
Ég sé þig vakinn
Ég sé þig nakinn
Inní mér syngur vitleysingur

As Sigur Ros sang. (Just some lyrics illustrating my remarks)

But I saw what you did there. Complex texture, cringy-inspiring design, metaphor of society, this is great and most of all redeems the whole. Plus, you are not pretentious and it comes from a good intention.

Keep up the good work. And don't forget : Inní mér syngur vitleysingur

Pekey responds:

You know what, you have some really good points. About the kind of clichè plot, how I never ventured away from the concept of robots, etc. But I think a lot of it comes from the fact that it started as a really, really simple idea about this lonely robot, and from there I just started adding to it. (I just listened to the song, and i started daydreaming. and this was the result)
This is a movie for the mainstream if nothing else. But you're right, I'll do something more adventurous next time. Thanks!

I'm Batman

You are re-using "This is Jerry" with interesting twists, such as a story carried over the "unrepetitive" actions than the aforementioned flash, or at least less. It's hella funny I must admit, but there is a skimped aspect, in my opinion, to this, maybe that was too easy to re-use the concept.

I still enjoy it though.

There were exactly 2 funny parts in this whole. It gets you two points. The rest was poorly animated, drawn, voice-acted and most of all, not an ounce of humour.
I'd give you 2.5 because of the guy with a smile upon his belly, but I can't. And I hate mathematics thus I lowen the score to 2 :D

When buttersnatches appear, peaches no longer

Interest me. (Damn characters limit)

Sir, this is for sure the most refreshing piece of animation I've seen in awhile. The graphics you used are as pleasant as icelandic music playing upon a banana split. Mmh. MMMMMMH >:(
Ok, it's also because this is the first movie I've watched in 2 weeks on newgrounds. I don't care, Mcbeth, I don't care, send me your armies, there is no man or robot who can stop me.

The voice acting was not perfect though, can't give you this creamy 10. I'll give you a juicy 5, because juice is tastier than cream when it's fresh.

Remind me to never try to improvise a script late at night.

Oh man I shouldn't be reviewing this...I'll get bashed again BUT nevermind let's go for honesty.

I won't bother reviewing each author's part because I am lazy and that's it. A collab is meant to be a whole. And blah

And Blah

And Blah.

This time, the animation was overall greater, especially Jeinu's top-notch icing and Theo-art's flicks. But the bits are not well put-together. While in Bliss I couldn't tell when you switched from one author to another, here, this is scarce deliberated.

The music is good, and, no offense, is more emotional than the move itself. Talking about the emotions, it was hard to feel anything. I was not amused the least ounce. Maybe that's me, but Bliss in comparison was a masterpiece and still is.

Plus, you guys only make collab about love. Love here, love there, love hither, love thither, love strudel, love Mengele. Have you ever heard about diversity ? I was about to give you 6/10 but then I appreciated the conceptual sepia and this sentence from the movie "Please tell me visions". Great phrase.

And last but not least, what is up with the last song ? I mean, this is life in technicolor, but the background is sepia :3 Oh anyway you don't care about my opinion.

Shut Me Up

Oh boy what a dissapointment. But champagne for you >:)

What kind of cartilage disease do your hands have ?
The animation and the graphism are poor but I love the colors.

It's hard to be content

And where's the apple juice man ? WHERE'S THE APPLE JUICE D:<

The cute faces and the last vomit made it all, I mean, the flick is only worth the viewing for that. Which is not a lot indeeeeeaslkdflkasO_Od.

Battosai810 responds:

Apple juice doesn't fit into the equation. It would be like putting soy milk in. Just wouldn't work.
And that vomit is called the "punchline". It's usually how you end a joke like this one.

Frankestein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy

I can only regret one can't find the other episodes anywhere. The graphics, the animation, the originality, the story (what happened to this world eh) and the rough side of it make this flash outstand. And I am too lazy to type more.
