Very good, but please fix the buttons!
I couldn't access the section or Tom's Bio on the loading screen. Please fix this.

Reviews for "Birth of Newgrounds"
I come away feeling
+ Great font at the start.
+++ Dramatic music creating suspense and intrigue.
+++ Lovely colours. Specially for the eye and also for the video footage.
+++ The watch is specially nice.
-- Is the kid beating the dude up/the guy jumping the camera meant to be one and the same? If so, the hair looks kinda different...
-- Abd if it's meant to be Tom, whilst it's like him when he's jumping the camera, the bit when he's beating the guy up isn't.

Basically, despite watching this 4 times, I'm totally confused. Are these people meant to represent folk? Who's the guy at the end? Is that meant to be someone uploading to NG or some archivist?
And what's with the NG 'paper' at the start? Is that representing some dude tearing up the NG magazine that Tom made?
The fact is though that your great gfx and colours did encourage me to spend a few minutes thinking about it all... so well done I guess.
Another fact though, is that I come away feeling unfulfilled, not any happier and not 'moved' in any way really.

Read the Author comments before you watch... Its my interpretation of how Newgrounds.com was developed... It is meant to be a wierd Eerie stylistic approach to the formation of Newgrounds.com! It was supposed to make you think, so i did my job! :)
To be able to understand you really need to know about Tom Fulps past life... I might add a link to the lit page in the movie!
? Confused...
Well, at first I was confused, then I was like: "Holy Shit!" and then like "Qu'est-ce que c'est?" :D Well, nice drawings, hard too animate I guess but you did a good job...
The violent truth about Newgrounds!
