AceTriad's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Defend the Diamond!]

One of the best stick animations I have ever seen. It is so smooth and flawless, that it looks like it was made by one person. And to top it all off, every single action was synchronised with the music's bpm- that is, every punch, kick, slice and stab matched to the beat of the song! Jeezus!

Shuriken255 responds:

Thanks! Going to make sequel to this one.

[Viva La Vida Mario]

Amazing! Actually brings a true message to the song, and the protagonist finally gets his justice after all. This may surpass the Minecraft "Fallen Kingdom" video. I hope you bring your masterpieces to Youtube and Facebook.

jackbliss responds:

Thank you so much! I hope it will reach more people to bring about real changes. We have to remember we still have the power! It has been uploaded to YouTube and Facebook. Thanks again for your review :)

[Rebooting the Madness 2]

2 years ago, the original instalment of the series was released by you. It was a smashing hit, with excellent soundtracks, creativity, and unique styles of violence. This... Well, for one thing, it is around the length of the original, but feels super short. We see more Prof. Dordum, and new enemy types(not to mention Edgar's true power: laser vision). Though it has less kills than the original, it has the feel of the original. I must address the following topics:

Was the agent with the teal glasses Plantman?

When Newton was cloned, was his DNA imprinted on the Irish club, isolated from those of his enemies?

Why would Boomer from the first movie manipulate Edgar? Was he exploiting Newton's absence?

Alpha-Nuva responds:

In order:

1. Yes
2. Yes.
3. He was trying to exploit Newton's absence. But to analyze it more in depth, he was a level 2 agent (black glasses) and still had a level 1 service (monitoring the jail cells from a control panel). After he got the yellow glasses, he fell in love with the absolute power he had over other agents.

[When they want you dead]

When I saw this flick, I thought, "Oh my God, how is it that good?" There are plenty of kills, a unique 3D action system mixed with 2d fight scenes, and a nice, neat little story about ideologies of human beings. It's great, especially for one that runs for 22 minutes. :) On the note of future projects, will Mad-n be one of them? Because I would love to see that degree of high quality work from you.

Coft responds:

I've still got the Mad-n storyline in my head, it just needs a rework. I can't really make sequels to the flashes I've submitted, but creating a similiar series(maybe not madness) is on the list of things I'd like to do one day. Yes, on this or probably far better quality :D

[Madness Tribulation III]

Well, after 4 years of work, Deimaus has given us a satisfying experience. The only problem that I have with it is that it's short; the General dies rather quickly, and some characters, like Gomen Takahashi, do not appear at all. The ending had a few problems, but most of them are understandable, save for the disappearance of Gomen himself.

Indeimaus responds:

It wasn't 4 years of work, just by the way ;)

Also Gomen was in the first version of TIII, he just doesn't fit in any more sadly, but thanks for the feedback!

[Rapheus goes to Hell]

"I swear I'm never going to take another life." -Rapheus.
10 minutes later, he is a hypocrite. Haha, I must say, this is a brilliant piece of comedy, because this is funny as shit. Nice acting, especially with Satan.

Rapheus responds:

Thanks a lot! JGV was stoked about being Satan, since it's completely against his nature. I might have to let Satan have more cameos in the future.

[Xionic Madness 4 Part-3]

What can I say? Brilliant ending to a brilliant series. The action was amazing, the story brillian tand cliche free, and it lead to a solid ending. I first thought that Kary might die by Xero and Omega, but I guess, the Infected Omega was a nice wild card... I wondered, what the hell happened, but then I quickly realized that it had something to do with XV. Even though Kary did all these evil things, she took a little sacrfice, and died somewhat of a true hero. THAT was very heart wrenching. And that's the thing. The characters aren't black and white, they had a shitload of gray poured onto them. And that's what made the story so amazing. Xero fought the good fight, and it must hurt that he was robbed of a happy ending due to the fact that he was forced to kill Omega, and to hide from the corporation as he slowly rots thanks to the virus. At least, he will die in a glorious battle, just like he said. Enid finally makes an appearance here, and she doesn't disappoint. It looks like there will be more of this, due to some hidden questions, like the mysterious puppeteer. Hopefully, if you manage to start a new series in this continuity, we'll see that it has a standard to look up to as this series, in its 5 years, has stood as a testament to the creativity of you , who took the simplicity of Madness Combat to a whole new level. If this was a movie, I'd give you a plethora of Oscars, because that's what you deserve.

cries a single manly tear*

Thanks for the review! and glad you enjoyed it :D!

[Ryder revenge Part10.Prev]

I like your videos, and your animation and sprites constantly improve. Here's a tip: Your characters always seem to fire automatic weapons in a semautomatic manner. Perhaps you should improve it by making the characters fire in an automatic manner. What I mean is that after each single shot, the gun constantly shakes up and down. Try shaking the gun to make recoil after a burst of 4-5 bullets.

Djjaner responds:

Thanks.. :)
