Glix's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Birthday 30]

I appreciate you a lot. Thanks for everything you do.

[Monster Lab - The Immortal Man (Episode 1)]

Absolutely slayin' it. Really sick work, love to see ya kickin' it up to the next level time and time again. Mad props!

[The Great Reptar Adventure]

I'm a big fan of your work!; this one didn't quite live up to my expectations, but I get that you're doing a lot of branching out with it.

Mainly, I'd say that the script felt a little cheesy; once you get the joke, it doesn't super go anywhere, conceptually. Usually you'd have more cuts and stuff, and obviously the conceit of this one prevented that, but I think it made it a bit "one note".

Usually, your work has me really laughing; but I have to say this one didn't make me laugh. I found it amusing, but it felt predictable, ultimately. Often you take things in directions that I don't expect, and while I wouldn't say one needs to stick to form they've proven, I've found that to feel funnier on a deeper level, or whatever!

Still, obviously, excellent. You've been making consistently superb stuff, and it's inspiring how dedicated you are. Always looking forward to see more from ya. Thanks for all that you do! Hopefully this is of some help!

This was very well thought out and and an excellend critique. I couldnt agree more. I think i made the script far to long, and I think i shouldve had more actions with the toddlers. Thank you for the feedback. I hope to improve on the next one!

[SS - The Flower of Life]

Are you kidding me?

I'm not sure if I'm more horrified by your mockery of science or by the positive reviews you're getting for this ludicrous and trite amalgamation.

Positive points: The animation was decent, the sound was good, the aesthetic presentation was well done.

However, the content of this submission is inexcusable. And even more horrible is the influence it is apparently having on people. You are passing off non-professional judgments, random unrelated truths, and random unrelated /mis/truths as evidence.

I question how you can even in sound mind call this science unless you honestly have no idea what science is. Thus, a brief explanation is in order. Science is a method of observation and testing by which we increase our knowledge of the universe. Its basis is in the application of statistical reasoning about our universe. It is essentially a rigorous system of skepticism. None of your points are testable, or even really meaningful. Many, in the series as a whole, are just wrong. For example, being 'right' or 'left' brained is not a thing. Even just a quick look on Wikipedia for lateralization of brain function would have told you that. You cite no studies. You cite no experimental verification. You lack the ability to assert your statement in a scientific way, and what you are saying is not science, you just want to call it that.

A lot of the points in this video are just interesting facts about geometry, but then there's no proof for spiritual involvement, just verification of geometric principles. Further, everything is most certainly not geometric in nature. A basic understanding of our current conception of quantum interaction indicates a probabilistic universe. But really that is not even necessary to refute your point, as you claim thoughts too are bound geometrically. However, abstract objects do not exist in reality, and thus do not have geometric properties. If you want to make a metaphysical claim that they do, you have a lot more philosophical work to do, and that is a highly contentious point.

Your claims also fall short of the usual primary problems with religion, which this "spirit science" is most assuredly, by the way. You have no proof for abstract casual objects, yet assert their existence. However, it seems a fact of this universe that abstract casual objects cannot exist. If they do, I have seen no verifiable studies motivating their existence, so for you to assert one, you would first have to motivate your claims with research, rather than baseless whimsy.

The point of this review isn't really for your edification, as you seem, based on your responses to other reviews, unwilling to actually think. However, I hope that people will actually post truthfully about this garbage rather than let positive reviews mount up. Honestly, its really depressing for me to see, not only these stupid assertions be made, and I will maintain they are stupid unless you can actually motivate them with real scientific work rather than what you feel is pretty and nice in your fake mental construct of what you'd like reality to be, but people swallow them without question.

Use your brains, people.

I'm honestly not sure if the positive reviews are trolls, but even if they are, even a fake validation of your pseudoscientific mental vomit should not be done.

RiverJordan responds:

Hey, what's so bad about sharing and discussing ideas that haven't really been heard before? In fact, modern science is beginning to discover exactly this in quantum physics and beyond. This is where unified field theory and e8 come from.

[The Ultimate Showdown]

It was good, but...

Its not the "best thing ever." There are plenty of cartoons I believe are better, not to say this is bad or anything. I didn't really find it that funny, either. It made me chuckle, but not roflmao or anything. Good job, and above average, but I don't believe its the best thing on negrounds, no disrespect.

altffour responds:

I agree there are better things on newgrounds if I could I would move littlefoot ahead of this one just to get everyone to shut the fuck up about the flash's position in the portal
