GnomeZome's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kangelio]

Eye like what you did here.
At first I thought the onlookers might be a reference to omnipotence or the interesting reference to the seraphim, but in the end I was very impressed with how you used certain elements of the devil/angel dichotomy to explore social anxiety.
I also deeply appreciated the simple, but perhaps earnest feel of the watercolor style, and I appreciate you being willing to share an older work, because I like it to.
Thank you for making this.

[Chaotic Heart: First Encounter]

A master hand/chainchomp baddie!
It's nice to see the blue wonder in motion after having commented on her design earlier.
I think you as visual story teller have a great sense of scale, and pacing, and the only thing I could really ask is a drop or two of more detail because you draw a beutiful world.
I would have also loved to have seen more from such an interesting monster design, but I am very satisfied with what we got.
Thank you for making this.

9Hammer responds:

Thank you Putney! I can definitely enhance the details a bit more to help the background environments, and I appreciate the comment too!

[LSDeath (Animation Short)]

Oh dear.
I really like the orbital mask it's a nice touch that immediately conveys supernatural presence.
It's really fun watching chaos brought to it's extreme in such pumped music video kinda way.
I also enjoyed your color pallet choices, and how minimalist the visuals where in comparison to the actions.
Thanks for making this.

[Gold Fever]

Nice.
I kinda wish the Old Man's name was Ferris, if only to be able to lead to some fun Fool's Gold jokes, but your the strong emotive tones of your animation really negate the need for a pun.
I liked the character designs, especially the Owl Shape of Death's Visage, and just how expressive you got that old man to be.
Thank you for making this.

[Bobby: Enter the Datasphere | King of the Hill]

Sail forth on the winds of chaos.
It's interesting how odd a cultural touch stone King of the Hill has become.
Did you know in Japan, supposedly, there are arguments about where it is more valid to watching as Sub or Dub?
Thank you for making this,

[Gee Wiz]

Fantastic.
I think you both did quite well with this.
There is definitely interesting sens of story arch and growth in here.
It almost felt like I was flipping to random page in a Choose your own adventure book, and watch the chaos of familiar character drift in their own possibilities.
Honestly it rare to see some thing who's pacing I would call indulgent, but also fervent.
Thank you for making this.

[Newt - The Invincible Ball Boy]

Some interesting classic Kablam vibes.
Your style is an interesting fusion of traditional rubberhouse, and classic flash, and is very enjoyable.
I think a little bit of work on pacing might help but the story arch was v. reasonable, and I can see you put a lot of work in general.
Thank you for making this.

[Hello Universe (헬로 유니버스) (2018)]

Getting some solid David Bowie/The Who vibes.
The music is extremely warm, but the lyrics are a bit sad.
It's a nice introduction piece to the characters, and really hit me with some nostalgic vibes.
Thank you for making this.

Hi, Putney.
Since we have influenced by our hero, dear David, it is not weird that you could notice his influence on our music. We are really greatful for your kind words~

[Hunting (2019)]

This is quite nice.
I like your style I have seen so far.
It's a little chibi, handles some very emotionally potent ideas, that catches me of gaurd in an interesting way.
I feel you might be a person who would appreciate Yoshitoshi ABe, who was lead on some of my favorite anime, like Serial Experiments Laine, and Haibane Renmeim which have some low pace but trully bitter sweet vibes.
I hope to see more from you.
Thank you for making this,

hellouni5 responds:

Hello again!
I really appreciate your kind words for our works.
We will be updating some previous works on NG, so if you're interested please keep your eyes on our channel!
Sincerely, hello universe.

[Anyhow (어떻게든)]

Cool.
It's interesting hearing a such a deep tone from the tiny figure, but the angle wings and a nice sense of timelessness.
I am impressed by your lip syncing with the lyrics, and over all I really like your simple color design for the character and background.
It certainly allows the pure white of the wings to stand out and contrast themselves.
Thank you for making this.

hellouni5 responds:

Hello, Putney.
We really appreciate your kind words!
We are truly glad that you have pointed out all the things that we have put effort in~
