Reviews for "Fist of the Nether Region"
Fist of the northstar pwns!
This is a great parody on fist of the northstar. I love the way the main hero kicks the shit outta of his enemy's nuts.
If you make another fist of the nether region let me know.
hey....
it shouldnt be called FIST of the nether region of all he does is kick the shit outa peoples balls
Nice work. Why? It ENTERTAINED me.
Sure, this was no brilliant visual or audio effort. But it was funny and I know enough about FOTNS to get the exploding nuts (instead of head) thing.
Simple, amatuerish cartoons like this is why I check out Newgrounds. It's fun.
Good work.
Parody?
Alright, I'm going to just say in advance that I did like this for the most part, but I'm well aware of the fact that when I get a bit critical of something, it sounds FAR more harsh than I intend it to. Except for my reviews for Hellboy 2 and that 'Kill Osama' game, which really were as horrible as I made them sound. But this just had a minor flaw or two.
The main thing is 'parody'. I mean, if you're going to make a parody of something, then you have to completely exaggerate everything that's odd about it, best if you can completely compose a plot built on NOTHING but the weirdness of the thing, drawing attention to how funny the whole concept of it is. For the most part, you did a fantastic job with that - the only thing that really detracted from it was the one-dimensional voice acting. Lemme explain what I mean, and what that really did mess with it.
Original show: Over-the-top violence for arbitrary reasons.
Yours: Over-the-top violence for no reason at all. (Good!)
Original show: Melodramatic levels of tension over the tiniest things.
Yours: Huge reactions to completely insignificant things. (Good!)
Original show: Voice acting that was completely 'anime' in its style.
Yours: A lot of bad guys with . . . I think they were Southern accents. (???)
I haven't seen the original series in FOREVER, so maybe they did that, too, in which case I'm wrong, but I don't remember it being that way. Perhaps for variety, you could get a couple of friends over for different voices next time? Just a suggestion. As I said, though, otherwise really good!
