Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Scarecrows]

Wonderful animation!

This really looks like something that should be at a film festival as a short film as it is good. My only complaint is that it was weird how the crow was not flying away from the monster. This was still a very cute story because you could just notice how adorable it was. I like the great range of detail that was shown with the background and everything. I almost thought that weird monster at the beginning was supposed to be a scarecrow. BTW, the title onscreen in "Scarecrow", not "Scarecrows".

Kaloian responds:

scarecrow was take I think when this was put up and scarecrow makes more sense. You were right the first time as they are both scarecrows but it doesn't matter to me really as long as he reads as a scary monster threat thing and the crow doesn't fly away because he was the one hurt in the beginning, which is also why he lands there in the first place. I realize this is a bit vague and that is my failing in this film. Aw well, bigger and better things.

[Press Start: Lament]

Good as always

While not much action, this was a great episode of the series because there was just so much effort put into it. I love the way all of the villians are put together, and how I recognize them as being parodies of video game villians. It's especially funny to see how they interact and play off of each other. It is fantastic you were able to get celebrities who actually did voices on the video games to do this. I guess Egoraptor is now a voicing celebrity with his video game work. The funniest part was the Sagat parody.

[[2010] REBOOT 12]

Rina-chan again!

This was one of the strangest things I have ever seen on Newgrounds, at least in terms of a flash with a story! I guess I would understand it more if I saw all the previous parts. There were just so many things going on, it was hard to keep track! I had no idea who was supposed to be the good guy or the bad guy as everyone seemed corrupt or scared of someone else! However, this was great because the animation was absolutely flawless. Given its insanity, it's also great for a psychological study.

[Prostitute Mickey 3]

Great addition

It was great to see Donald Duck appearing and for that matter, Daffy Duck. These are some of my favorite things on Newgrounds, although I did think the cartoon was a bit too low. I love how pitiful Mickey sounds and how stupid Goofy sounds. Donald just looks hilarious with a voice box in a wheelchair missing his legs. When these characters swear, it's just funny in itself because really how the voices are funny. I laughed at the part where Mickey said that "Weekend At Bernie's II" was a bad movie.

[The Post-it Knight]

Very creative!

I thoroughly enjoyed this because it used a completely different kind of stop-motion. It took a little bit to get used to, but it was fantastic overall. I like how it was also a really standard fairy tale story, and it reminds me of that movie "Tangled "I saw last night. You obviously put a ton of effort into this and I am very glad. One highlight was how you made the knight smaller and smaller in the pictures to show him going off into the cave. It is a submission that gives you a true sense of wonder and awe.

[Oh, Mr. Woofykins]

Could have been better

I can't quite put my finger on it, but the quality of this animation looks very different than what you have done before. It is rare I see this kind of style in any Newgrounds cartoon. Additionally, I thought this was pretty good, but it didn't seem to build up to any great punchline. The entire thing seems to be imitating classic Tex Avery cartoons. I too have called some people a "silly goose", but not my pet. The funniest part is probably how stupid Mr. Woofykins looks and how he moves.

[W.A.R]

Great again!

I think this was a really new style for you, at least with the animation. While not as good as some of your other stuff, it was still really fun to watch. I thought he was going to take a dump or fart on that guy's head or something! Geez, maybe I have been around on the Internet too long. I recognized the artwork style, but it was still a different form of animation, and the highlight is how good the shading is. It had a fair amount of stuff going on for a short, with all the guns and blood going everywhere.

[A Christmas For Magus]

Good flash

I guess with how it is nearing Christmas this year, I just had to enjoy this little Christmas submission. Congradulations on your award and score as it does deserve it. It works that it uses that great music at the end. The sprite work was really well done, and I liked the idea of Santa fighting off all those demons and stuff. It was a bit...random to have a cat be that guy's weakness, but whatever. The end also gave me a good heartwarming feeling even if I could not fully understand it.
