Reviews for ""The Waterman Movie""
good.. but
I like it overall but it needs something else.
don't know that waterman deserves a movie.
I am really split in how i want this project to go, because waterman used to be a great NG animated series that i truly enjoyed. However, the people who enjoyed that series are starting to grow up, and that kind of comedy just isn't good enough anymore.
The Positive
- The animation itself was amazing, and is in fact feature length theater quality.
- You got a famous person to do voice work, awesome. (well...sort of)
The Negative
- You got one of the worst voices you could find to play a role in your film. Sure, he is famous and is pretty funny when he tries, but his voice work in this is less than flattering.
- Waterman fans have moved on, we don't really feel nostalgia for it, either.
overall you should just consider doing something new.
Maybe
It has potential... Funny, good graphics... Maybe yes, maybe not.
yeowza
fucking hell what program did you use for the opening scenes? that was some beautiful shit far above what you used to animate on here. i was cynical of this because i was always kinda passive about waterman even back in 2006 and thought the film would look the exact same as the flash series. but now i can see why you need the money. the backgrounds in this were stunning.
there's a few gripes though. to say you got LESLIE FUCKING NIELSEN he's not really putting much energy into his lines, we know next to nothing about the plot, and obviously as a standalone flash this is just two minutes of ridiculously pretty visuals. and as pretty as this may turn out, its still gonna have to be entertaining and interesting for it to work.
i wish you luck but it'd be nice if we knew just that bit more about it rather than just some old dude in a jungle muttering to himself. i'm also guessing you've dropped the more 'internet cartoon' aspects of the flash series like the family guy style cutaway gags. that'd be much better
PS - chameleon was the best part
