Basseths's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Past Madness]

It's great to relive some old classics. Will never forget this little animation, one of my favourites even to this day. where ever you are erixs, hope you are doing fine.

[Project: MERC]

pretty good to be your first, I would point out areas and things to improve but I don't want to be annoying so I'll just say the most important one, the walking is too slow. Anyways, I'm sure you'll get better. Happy md : )

[Madness Celebration]

Really nice! I love the choice in sfx and music really makes this feel like a throwback to old madness cartoons

[Madness - Retribution]

Great job! I can only nitpick some details like the grenade launcher's grenade just disappearing into nothingness and the abrupt ending. But that's nothing really. Happy md : )

[An Experiment]

Only Krinkels can make any dumb question into an awesome short

[REALM 5: Revelation]

I may get some hate but I have to express my opinion. This is by far the best Realm apart from the first one, good art, good sfx, very good combat and animation which lacked in the previous installements, the only thing that’s decent at best is the music. Just like the previous one, the background track is not interesting and this being madness combat it should feel like an adrenaline rush or at the very least be exiting and give a sense of epicness. Although the animator didn’t compose the music I have to point it out because it’s Cheshyre who made it and he is a fenomenal composer so I find it extremely odd that his music sounds so bland, maybe is lack of effort or not a good direction or something else I’m unaware. For comparison you can see MC11 which has a very similar story to this one but a key difference is that the track really makes you understand the madness the characters are going through, it’s also energetic and epic.
Moving on, the story of the series is pretty generic and mostly a copy paste of krinkels past cartoons. But I have to admit that at least in this installment Kelzad is finally doing something original with the auditor realm and yeelons invasion. Still, there are elements of Krinkels recent animations in the purple realm scenes that are a blatant rip off from mc11 and Deimos adventures. Besides all that I’m happy that the story is taking a turn and doing something new, although heavily relying on madness combat canon.
The art in this one is really good, previous Realms had pretty decent to bad art but this one really shows how much time Kelzad put into it. I like all the new characters and their designs, especially the monster versions of the auditors that look way better that yeloons black tricky design.
Overall, this series took a turn for the best and like I said before, I’m glad it’s trying to do something more original. If I had to recommend something is that the music needs to be improve by any means and that the story needs to stop plagiarizing madness combat and become it's own thing completely. I’m hopeful that the next Realm will be good and I wish that however is reading this doesn’t take it as an insult but just an opinion/critic.
