Reviews for Tom Fulp Speaks!

[Taereth]

I'm not one of your 'foamheads'

but I do watch illwill's movies and rate them fairly. Anyone who says that 'this is the same thing but the foamheads hate it because its creator isn't illwillpress' should pay more attention to their screen. First off, this parodies ONE of illwill's toons, that WAS concieved in an incredibly short period of time - because it was a rapid response to hurricane Katrina. The remainder of illwill's toons contain *shock* animation! albeit limited animation, but massive 3D flashes don't get huge scores, do they? illwill's flashes get good scores from many viewers because;

a) the artwork is good (note: good does not entail realism - look at the comic section of a newspaper some time)
b) his flash contains humor that is either relatable to everyday life (this is a thing called sattire, and is a time-honored form of media) or bizzarre without being outright stupid or pointlessly hateful.

This is NOT to say, of course, that there aren't people who take their appreciation of illwill's work too far. I do not believe that any of his flash works are worthy of a five, however, they are not the products of a 'talentless hack'.

Wadezilla responds:

I used to watch his movies and review him fairly, but every single fucking time it's the same damn thing. Foamy is a motion tweened squirrel with 3 frames of animation for the arms. Germaine is the same exact thing, minus the motion tweening, she just sits there.

Actually, this parodies 2 of illwill's toons. The one that was just released a couple hours ago maybe? Illwill's submissions get good scores because:

a) There is a half naked chick
b) They enjoy uneducated racial biases spoken and then sped up to 20x the normal speed that a persons brain can comprehend
c) Half naked goth chick

His artwork is decent, but it's only been drawn a couple of times. For the most part, he uses the SAME images over and over again.

Oh yeah, this was a rapid response to illwill's latest movie, so my time to make this was limited.

Thank you.

2.5

I really do not get the purpose of this movie. Tom Fulp does not talk like this, if you feel the need to use this voice, at least say it's "Tom Fulp Clock" or something, but don't just leave it like it is. I thinik the background map looked pretty nice - some more animation could really do something for the movie itself. Good luck in your future work.

Wadezilla responds:

Sorry, I was rushed and decided not to spend much time on this movie. Kinda like Illwillpress.

This is a tribute, right? >_>

Lol don't blame me because I give this a low score, but I think you're right about that "I made this shit in less than half an hour" thing. 'Takes no talent whatsoever, but doesn't mean IWP has NO talent at ALL; he's just being a lazy, lazy, lazy animator (lazy).

"[...]shoot them on sight[...]" ---> lol

Wadezilla responds:

He's a lazy animator and he makes money off of it. There are hundreds of Flash authors on this site who put their heart and soul into Flash movies for no money at all. He keeps rolling out new episodes to keep himself on the scene, lure new people in, and then sell them useless novelty shit that they will throw away or loose after a year. If you agree with that, then keep supporting it.

I agree, he can draw, but he's doesn't do more than 3 frames of animation in each episode. He would be talented if he actually listened to his fans and critics to create something worthwhile, but he doesn't. He complains about people not checking suggestion boxes, yet he doesn't check his. Hypocricy?

Another one!!!

This is like the fourth one of these I saw today, I don't know who was the first to do this idea, but even they lacked orginallity. Don't insult someone and then do a flash in the exact same style. And no don't tell me that your just doing what he does. When he did it it was funny, when you guys do it its the same stuff over and over. If your going to try to insult someone, please please please, out do them first, just a suggestion.
Oh by the way I laugh when you guys insult foamy fans, they aren't fanboys, you just belong to a massive group of haters, if all the people who like foamy cartoons vote 10 its just to restore the balance to the bs 0's your people dish out.

Wadezilla responds:

This is the second one. The first one got blammed.

Same stuff over and over? Funny, isn't it? That's exactly what he does!!!

Foamy lovers vote 5 because they're idiots, just like yourself. I find it funny how none of you can come up with a GOOD argument as to why illwill shouldn't be bashed.

Ok point, but went too far

I think everyone would agree that when it comes to illwillpress's flash animations they are quite basic when it comes to backgrounds, characters and so on but his animations arent actually about graphics, the only reason he is creating them is to share his point to people in a slightly less than fassionable way.

He uses his own voice and modifies it so people like you wont recognise his voice out in public and try to bash the shit out of him ;P plus, have you heard a squirrel actually make sounds? theyre kind of like that... his original animation was just playing around with a squirrel character and he followed through with it

If you didnt notice illwillpress doesnt give two shits about newgrounds, its just another way to exploit his animations to his common audience. He doesnt give a shit about animation, and i think he said something along those lines in one of his fanmail episodes.

The animation that you ripped of he made as a spur of the moment thing because of the events that happened at that particular point in time, he wanted to get his point accross quick so it might make the slightest of differences in what might happen in that area.

Your animation on the otherhand is complete shit all because you want to get your invalid point accross that gets you nowhere, your animating skills are most likely 50 times worse than his so fuck off you dumb shit, go chew on your own ass or something

Its most likely more productive than the shit that you just made.

This review blows.
