Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Press Start: Endgame 2]

Can't wait

Wow, it is great to see the series come full circle or at least have it all lead up to the movie. I originally had no idea that was what this was based on, as I was so used to simply seeing the animated shorts. It was also fun to see that live-action bit at the end. The battle scenes in this were great, especially with the whole big attack. It was cool to see a lot of in-jokes in there, like Alien Hominid briefly appearing. I am glad you guys finished this movie and all of you smart nerds came together for something!

[the gathering storm]

I don't get it

You have a very admirable description of this as pretty much any review can be summed up that way. It was even stranger than your "Eskimo Bob" series. I guess the animation that was there was pretty good, especially with how the faces moved around. It was kind of creative, but something that makes so little sense could be a bit more flashy. I was especially confused by the prescence of the yellow muscular man. He was presented as an antagonist, but did not do anything malovalent.

[Press Start: Strategy]

One of the first!

It was really interesting to find out what Egoraptor's first episode was like. It is really cool to see this for the first time because you really get to see how much the series has organization. It really would have helped if I had seen an introductory episode like this before really getting into the series. The animation is pretty cheasy, but it actually does manage to have good designs. I could not talk about all the writing on the newspaper that Count Vile is on, even though I sometimes do that in my reviews. I think the funniest guy here is Buzz.

[High School (bocodamondo)]

Fairly mediocre

I was hoping for some more action but it was also lacking in quality. I think the best part might be at the very beginning with the nightmare and the appropriate music. I thought it was strange how that one guy was wearing the coat of many colors from the Bible. It did manage to have somewhat of a plot, but the animation really weighed it down. The voices and music were fine, but that was pretty much it. If you were referring to bugs as in defects in the animation, then I did see plenty of that.

[Koopa Assault]

Now that's great!

I can not really compare it to the "Super Mario Bros. Z" series, as it is so good in its own right! I was just impressed by how good the animation was and the constant stream of action! My only complaint is that it existed in an infinite loop which seems crass for something of such high quality. It seems like a sequel to something, but no number is in the title. The sprites used were very original and fun to just look at. My favorite scene is probably the fight with the awesome blue laser guns.

[Diplomacy]

Pretty neat

Yep, I probably felt the same way after the September 11th attacks. This is just hilarious because it is done on such a large scale. While some people might expect this idea to be subverted, what matters is that so much preparing is put into it. And can you believe it has been nine years and we STILL can not find this guy? It also helps that the animation is really good, especially the change in facial expressions. Apparently, you might not have made any audio except for Osama's swearing.

[DBZ in a Nutshell]

Started it all

I simply can not believe that Egoraptor was doing stuff on the Internet this long ago, yet he did not even make stuff until 2006! While I did not find it as good as most people do, it is still very funny. It is especially cool to see Freiza and Cell fight in those forms. The funniest part was probably when they were talking about the big place that could not exist in real life. It never gets old in making fun of Krillin's uselessness. Some of the jokes seemed to go on a bit too long, but I am surprised more people have not regarded this as a meme.

[9 cOrOnAs]

Groovy, pal!

This was great to listen to, although I am not sure if it was made by Weird Al Yankovic, as he is not credited here. Pretty much any comedic song is going to be attributed to him nowadays. While the animation was not much, I had to just love how funny the lyrics were. It was the first place (and maybe the only place) where I heard this hilarious song. It was nice to include the lyrics and the song has such a continuing beat. I have yet to take a single alcoholic drink in my life, but I will be aware when I do.

[I am a cow]

It takes forever to load!

The best part of this is probably the animation which really has no flaws. The weird thing is that I had trouble keeping up with this, as I was not sure if this was really happening or just the cow's imagination. The cow's udders looks like bits of hair in some shots. I was pretty turned off by the old guy in his BDSM gear and all. It kind of seemed like the joke went on a bit too long, but I guess someone could get like that after grabbing nipples all day. The voicework was done nice enough, too.
