Reviews for "Santa's Grotto."

Maybe If You Actually Tried.

I've always thought that if your flash wasn't good and you knew it, why put it up on Newgrounds. I have yet to get the answer to that, but the question still comes to mind. The animation was poorly done and had no color to it. This flash had one of the worst storylines I had ever seen on here, and was too long just to have no point at the end. If a project gets stressful take some time off to think about it and how you want to approach it. Then go back to it with a clear mind. That's the only advice I can offer you, other than that good luck.

Nah, with me, when I say work's stressful, it meas I'm no longer motivated to work on it. I do badly made animations out of boredom, usually, so don't think of them as something completely serious. I'm glad you took the time out to write a decent review, though; thanks for that

Not my kinda thing.

I can see why people WOULD like it, with the complete randomness and all that jazz, but I just didn't.

I felt the animation was lazy and poor quality, the dialog was incomprehensible, the story left a lot to be desired, and the excessive swearing gave it a childish and cheap quality to it.

How could it be better?
- More effort into the animation
- Understandable words
- Tone down on the swearing.

Mechabloby responds:

haha, nice review: all the reviews I've been given that are negative have been shit. I give kudos to you for not being tempted to write such a shitty review, thanks man. Glad you took the time to review it properly.

I admit that the movie is in bad taste, really, but that's because my original idea I had in mind just got a bit too stressful for me, so, in the end, I just made up this pile of juice in half an hour or so.

O HSHI

Truly intriguing drama there Oliver. I especially liked how you portrayed the betrayal of the main character by his son - the plot devices to build tension in this scene were particularly effective.

Tally ho old boy.

MCFLY SUCK

Also Hot Fuzz may best a great Christmas movie choice.

Love it, you have a good way with storylines and scripting. You're actually better at that than the flash to be honest, but that isn't a bad thing, it's awesome that you're so creative.

Mechabloby responds:

stop taking the piss - the idea has been used over and over, man

thumbs up

Just foking brilliant. It doesnt matter how its animated or synced it just needs to be funny, and if you cant understand it, go to speech therapy. Or watch some fucking Monty python or something. This flash has shown me that I should get mah mum a new gift besides middle fingers. Thanks for the tip.

Mechabloby responds:

Thanks for that review - I really wonder why and how people don't understand what I'm saying, usually: me and a bunch of my mates can understand it clearly. Sure, there is parts that may need clearing up, but not all of it, surely. Glad you liked it, man. :)
