Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Child Planet & Monkey p.1]

Quite good

The main problem with this is that the voices are just not that easy to understand. I do not know why, as I have never had that problem before. Still, I have to praise this for having really good animation and a great sense of atmosphere. It is fun to watch these simply because I will be introduced to new clocks all the time. This time around it was ArcticClock and FluxCapacitorClock (yeah, I'm a "Back To The Future" fan too). Despite having these voices, these characters still bring out emotion.

How sweet

This was a very interesting experiment from you, especially for such a serious tone. The best one was by far the "9/11/01" one, a very moving and deep song. Yeah, you threw in some visual jokes and word jokes but I still got a high feeling of art due to this. It is great people try to put real emotion into their work even if the presentation is a little goofy. An impossible object as an icon is however sophisticated by nature. It was also neat to be able to select the parts, and it was not scene select like.

[HAMBURGARS CLOK DAE MOVAY]

Okay

It is interesting to know that mind f?ck phrase was around this early. It is also interesting to know that Clock Day was celebrated all the way from 2002 and stuff. The thing with this cartoon is that you, Hamburger-Clock just look so darn delicious. You even have the best clock face design of anybody here. I like the recursive theme in this, although I was wondering how long it would go on. While the animation was not good, it was alright for a Clock Day flash, and for some reason my thing says "unchanged" for the first time.

[Phoenix Wright: Rock on!!]

Pretty good use

The weak point of this is that there should have been some more sketches or whatever it is you call those segments. The strong point was that the graphics were really good. Of course, for a 2-D game, "Phoenix Wright" already has some of the best kind to offer. I am not that big of a fan of the songs that were played. I can, however, recognize the basic appeal of this genre and the images were quite appropriate for the song material. I think my favorite would be the first one as it is the most visually pleasing.

[Ng Voicemail #973]

Weird ending

I think the main reason this is so popular is because the scene at the end is just so good. Is that supposed to be you or Tom Fulp having sex with April Fulp? Anyway, it was a little hard to make out what liljim was saying. It is still good fun to watch, if only because the animation is so good. It is even hard to consider this a stick flash as the characters and their bodies just have so much depth to them. It is especially funny to note that this is apparently a real audio or maybe it is not real or something.

[Not-The-Final Fantasy XII]

Everyone hates you, the way it should be

I do not know that much about "Final Fantasy XII" but this was still great. I have never really played games like "Runescape" but I would probably be too addicted if I did try. What really works here is that there are just so many things in the background and things to stop it. The animation and voicework are also great and authentic. It is seriously hard to tell whether or not any of the in game characters are male or female. Here is the description for the wolf with a mustache.

"Ok, so I liked this drawing enough to want to use it twice, what of it. All I had to do was switch colors around and add a mustache. I'm damn proud of how I drew that mustache too. If they added this one and the top hate one, they'd have to make an ultimate crossbred version that has both the mustache AND the hat. And make it a boss. And its special attack would be to dance around to the Charleston".

[Charlie the Unicorn 2]

That Charlie

Here is another great entry into this series because it does a good job of amping up the ridiculousness. I am surprised he does not ask them what happened to his kidney. Then again, he does eventually find out in the next cartoon (ooh, spoiler!). The animation is getting better, especially with how the unicorns look and they great bananas. It is cool how he eventually gives in to the madness but then goes back to his monotone rantings. I guess all unicorns are supposed to be silly by their nature.

[Revival of the Menace]

Quite long

I think this may in fact be the longest Clock Crew submission that I have ever reviewed! Although I could be wrong, I think the official time was about 16 minutes. It was interesting how CeleryClock and TampaxClock had much better designs than the other characters. The fight scenes were not that great and it did drag on a little. I still have to admit that it did a pretty good job of creating tension. It is interesting to see the story structure of things in the early days of the Clock Crew.
