Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[252525]

Thriling and gripping!

This is one of the finest Clock Crew submissions I have seen in a long time made by someone not that popular. I loved the references to the WRYYYYYY meme, which was just funny. You really had no idea what was going on anywhere. That really kept me entertained as I just learned to soak in the zaniness in the submission. The best part was probably the beginning when he was seeing all those clocks around him. Of course, him turning green and pooping everywhere was good too.

[Tom Selleck's Sea Quest 6]

Best yet!

Well, this definitley made up for the last entry in this series. I would definitley be satisfied if this was the last in the entire thing, because it is easily the best. It helps that you really know your Clock audience and threw in that funny little thing at the end. This also had the best animation as well as the most comprehensible dialogue with subtitles of course. Call me old fashioned, but I think it is funny to insert cartoon images on viral videos like that. Dang, those are some short shorts you have.

[Clock Trek]

That's Star Trek

I thought the animation and overall premise was very interesting, but it could have been executed a little better. I would have loved to see some more action or some jokes about "Star Trek" itself. The voices (?) are still done really well and fit the characters well. I think my favorite part would be when he was going past the clock/lock/digital lock. There were certainly some things going on around, so I will give you guys credit on detail. It just could have had some more things relevant to the franchise.

[Tom Selleck's Sea Quest 5]

Very bad

This is easily the worst in the entire series. Yeah, I was not expecting something brilliant to come out of this, but it really seemed like you guys got lazy with this. In fact, why didn't it blur out to the "5" at the beginning of the cartoon like before? The noise at the end went on forever and it was just really annoying. I could also not understand what Tom Selleck was trying to say and he just had a single square head. The previous installments treated him better by fleshing out his body frame and legs.

[Did You Hear That? vol 2]

Great stuff!

It is amazing to find out how many things you can do with just the same audio file. It is especially interesting to note that the source audio is pretty random and silly in itself. I think my favorite would have to be turtleco. It was also great to see work by some people I recognized, such as LazyMuffin who is as absurd as ever. Every cartoon was different and stylistic in its own right. I am just so glad you guys still managed to mix the styles together in such common ground as a clip without even any dialogue (though it probably would have been less creative if you had included dialogue).

Graeme responds:

I love reading reviews like this. From someone who truely appreciated the collab, and what we were trying to accomplish with it! Thanks for that!
Also, I asked everyone to not use any dialouge because that directs the storyline far too much

[Grand Theft Awesome]

Awesome (of course)!

A work like the Awesome series is really good if imitations can be just as good as the source material. It really helps that two of the site's greatest contributors are part of it. Another thing I liked was the animation which actually worked better in not being that similar to Egoraptor's stuff. I loved the fast paced jokes, especially in the beginning. The fact that it has an explosion and a groin attack and still does not end shows how great it is. It was good as an imitation and something in its own right.

[Sonic Shorts: Volume 3]

So funny!

I just go on all day about how every individual sketch was great in its own right. I could have sworn that it was Wonchop who made that one scene with Chaos. I think the best animation might have been the one that featured Silver trying to go up the ramp thing. You had no idea what was going on in the rest of the sketch. My favorite would probably be the one where Tails says that Eggman got fatter and he basically turned into a giant. The ending was a bit creepy, but at least that ended well.

[Dragon Ball Z Parody Ep.2]

Getting better

This one was funnier because you really learned to make fun of yourself on this. While the animation was still not that great, this series is starting to make fun of DBZ and itself. The onlly really annoying thing was how the credits music just kept going on. I was wondering as to what happened to Black Trunks. The funniest part was probably when the narrator just heaved over from the heavy voice as that was actually something that annoyed me. It seems to be getting more into the traditional DBZ feel, even if it is still disorganized.

[Spares]

Holy reused joke on a web toon!

It was amazing how you were able to keep up with so many jokes in such a lengthy cartoon. The animation was as good as ever, and I really like how the characters just move and everything. Everything is just a joke in itself like all the hands that reach over into the refridgerator. There are just so many random things going on, like the machine being powered by monkeys. I also like how dumb everyone is, even the director. The action scenes were good as there are no more worthy opponents for the characters to slay than themselves.

[Chuck's New Tux!]

It all works

I am perplexed at how this did not get a spot in the Weekly Top 5 or a Review Crew Pick. It is one of the most popular submissions to be released this year! Anyway, this was really great first of all because the animation is so good. The main strong point is that there is simply no way to expect that punchline. You see ironic thing after ironic thing going on and you just wonder when it will all end. In the end of course, it does not matter as he managed to get that tux dirty after all and then some.
