Reviews for "Turd of the Week"

[Makaveli]

^Dropped the two lowest scores ^

I am really surprised that nobody had IP banned these people yet. It is only a matter of time until someone gets hurt because of these movies, and the 12 year old creators family, and Newgrounds get sued. These movies need too be stopped, now they are not just spamming, but actually risking lives. This probabaly will not make front page, but if you keep trying and making better and better movies too fit your messages, it eventually will. Then you can get more people too see your message, and then maybe something will finnaly change about this on newgrounds.

Wow, thank you! This has become a ridiclous problem, the last 3 turds of the week that I know of, have been "false hentai" movies commiting Flash Fraud.

Also to everyone else, keep supporting this movie by voting scores on it (we've dipped below 3.5, not good!), and also take some time to read Wartys_Neryon's review, he's got a very large contribution to this controversy!

No, go away.

Seriously, the last thing people need right now is giving those TOTW people exactly what they crave - ATTENTION. And this is the worst way to do it, with a poorly made Flash animation, not really (and lets be honest here) much better than those movies you portray themselves. OK, you have a semi-valid point, I'll give you that. But you wanna discuss something? Take it to the BBS.

Satire. YAY!

About this animation: Very true, very true. This happens to deserve a nine here on Newgrounds, because of the satire in this thing. The rating really makes sense here on NG, but I'm not sure what to say anywhere else, unless the site is, somehow, affiliated, because there are so many on Newgrounds that love to hastily throw stuff together and call it "HENTAI". Anyway, I don't watch the stuff, but people just LOVE to fool around with other NG users.

And this stealing thing the other peoples brought up, this could not have been stolen, because you made parody to a typical "Turd of the Week" animation. And on another thought, a sophisticated member of Newgrounds wouldn't browse lesser-known peoples' cartoons like a crank call prankster randomly points at a "name-of-a-relatively- completely-unknown-person-to-the-prankster" at the phonebook. On the plus thought, you (referring to KKyuubi) opposed the stealing of another work, and yes, many works have been stolen from relatively well-known persons with cult followings. A sophisticated internet user knows it very unwise to steal from authors like Misteroo, TmsT, Trapezoid, LegendaryFrog, and so forth, and has the heart NOT to steal a low-viewed flash from a nearly unknown person.

Darned good satire, and this kind of thing which takes a bite from the "Wild Bunch" here in Newgrounds. I myself am not interesting in joining of founding a clan, keeping talent and sophisticated going-arounds over *ahem ahem* "being part of a gang." Also, in my preference, do not join clans if given the option.

Graphics: 7 (needs some filler; blank (white) backgrounds are boring)
Style: 10 (satire; I love it)
Sound: 10 (derned good music; I love music, PERIOD)
Violence: 0 (unless you count criticisms as violent)
Interactivity: 4 (well, there's a control bar)
Humor: 10* (you threw in Colin Mochrie, and pretty much told the procedure of making crap in a funny way)
Overall: 9* (the graphics shadowed this)

* - More understandable in Newgrounds over anywhere else (because of a party/affiliation, being TotWdoers)

KKyuubi responds:

Thank you! Thank you! Finally, a long review that is actually positive!

Also originally, I wasn't going to throw in Colin, but since I noticed that the "Pokemon Hentai Example" scene was animutational, I just threw in Colin Mochrie to at least make this an offical Animutation of sorts under "Cicierega's First Law of Animutation" (If the author says it's an Animutation, it is, unless the author is clearly pulling his leg)

Grossly overrated.

This flash doesn't deserve anywhere NEAR the score it got. See, Newgrounds is a site where people can showcase animations. This is NOT a proper animation, but a collection of some text, some screenshots, some tweens, a very small amount of drawings (also tweened), and a little bit of the same stuff you were criticising. If anything, this 'flash' is much the same as the kind of material you're condemning content-wise.

Yet it has a much higher score, showing that a lot of people will vote high just because of a message they agree with, not because of a flash's actual quality, which is frankly pretty fucking lame. And you're hardly being mature about this, bragging about how your 'flash' deserves Daily Feature, Review Crew Pick and front page.

Not to mention you can't take any valid criticism, choosing instead to ignore it. Decent animators who make REAL flashes that are worthy of such merit aren't anywhere near as arrogant as you. Try to make something that's actually worthy of a bit of credit, THEN you can go and massage your ego.

Go on, give me some valid reasons why this flash, which is very similar to some that got Turd of the Week, deserves a whole 2 points or so better, honestly.

KKyuubi responds:

I understand what you are saying, I'm just mad at all those Star Syndicate guys who have broken my huge streak of great reviews on this movie by dissing it!

hm

not very good at all, your ideas are all wrong.

the "pokemon hentai" series is only done by a group of weeners whose antics are not tolerated by the real ringleaders of operations on this website. i hope you might figure out who i am talking about.

also you failed to mention a critical part in submitting any movie: the icon. an icon can make or break an attempt at any sort of score.

also you claim that people are tricked into watching movies that fail to deliver "content of this calibur"??? hentai is not what you would call quality content. it's almost always made simply for exposure of the submitter, the exploits of people gunning for low scores is to take advantage of this to reveal to the public the idiocy of people who only go to this site for hentai. if you would read the reviews on these movies a bit more closely you'd find there are more angry people wishing to find hentai than those uspset about what exactly was in the movie itself.

i sure hope you aren't searching the depths of this website for hentai because you appear to be siding with those who do. the people who scrounge this site for hentai are some of the worst users in terms of any intelligence, yes even worse than those who constantly troll the bbs and post giant FAIL pictures or tons of candy stealing jokes.

a while back, happyleetgost submitted a public service announcement like this, except for a different reason. he was fed up with the competition that would ensue between two parties with similar intentions who i will not name but i would hope you'd be able to figure out. his didn't have the flashy music or flashy graphics but his message was almost the same and received a much lower score than this for reasons unknown.

back on the topic of turds of the week, NOBODY can go and make a turd of the week flash. a critical essence to the formula is reputation. the simple fact that someone already has a lot of movies on the portal will greatly aid any venture into getting a low score.

some people do play dirty and change the name of the movie while it is under judgement, now my two turds from a year ago were not won in this way which makes me feel good about what was done when i see people pulling these cheap tricks today.

the earliest pioneers of this idea created incredibly different movies than what you see today. if one of the movie's title or comments had anything to do with hentai, the movie itself was sure to not. seem familiar? well in a way yes but the movies themselves were a lot more refined than these "pokemon hentai" movies you seem to despise so much.

when the hentai craze was popularized, there was little contention for the turd award. however a group of people who are notorious on this website for constantly churning out massive series of low quality, decided to dip their feet in the water as well and create very similar but also obviously worse movies than the starters of the craze, the result is pokemon hentai, an unfunny ball of dog doo that DOESN'T DESERVE THE ATTENTION THAT WINNING THE AWARD BRINGS.

so this brings me to this: the pokemon hentai series does not even deserve turd, it's obviously not going to be blammed due to the sheer will of the artists' reputations, but winning turd is too much of a blessing for that series, they deserve to fall into the depths of the portal with 90 percent of the movies that are on this site.

now that brings me to this: there are some great turds of the week, granted some are in desperation to prevent losers from taking the spotlight, but even some of the frequent winners of turds have some incredibly hilarious "award winning" movies that grace the portal page every once in a while. it is those jealous of the frequent winners who try to get some of their own exposure that are ruining the integrity of the turd.

the prime intention of winning turd of the week on purpose is to amass abusive reviews to show to people that there are TONS of idiots who are here for horrible reasons, but the movies themselves are unjustified when they lack any form of satire or humor.
