Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chupacabra Hunting]

Not too bad

I have gotten more familiar with your stuff and this was a decent job. I really like the atmosphere that you create with the really dark setting. It does make it seem like something is going to happen like in "The Blair Witch Project" but it proves to just be extremely ordinary. I like how the chupacabra looks like an alien and how you manage to keep the whisper throughout the whole time. I would have liked it better if there had been some more jokes or action, but a lack of them was more of the point. The animation could be a bit better, too.

[DBZ: Vegeta's Attire! 0.0]

Fan made?

Oh yeah, I was wondering why I did not recognize that one other character, although I assumed it was just Goku or someone. Anyway, this was a decent flash but not one of your best. I think it is at least interesting because that is a point that I never really thought of before. The voices also did a good job, but this was pretty short. You obviously have some good stuff out there with how it is so high rated. I would suggest next time make it longer and have it be more than just a single punchline.

[Attracted]

Quite nice

It is always fun to go around and unearth the high rated flashes that did not win any awards. This just goes to show that stick flashes will simply never die and this is proof of originality. I really liked this guy's power, particularly with how he had all those floating objects around. The villian at the end was also quite creative and I simply love that spider design. Now, I did have to have lower quality to view this, but it's so good you do not really care. I also like the close-up shots that show more detail.

[Tankmen:Dual trailer]

Looks great!

I was quite impressed by how impressive this turned out to be, especially since it was a departure from the usual Tankmen stuff. It is known for being goofy, but this has taken a completely different path! Not only is it ironic to watch, but the animation and style is great in its own right. I could only imagine having a military leader as hot as her. Anyway, I simply can not wait for this to come out and hope it gets the most recognition it can get. We even do not even get to see that much of the actual tankmen in this trailer.

[Ultrasound]

Awesome!!

I remember how I kept hearing about you with how you worked closely with Weebl. I think this is in fact the first time I saw you do something on your own and it turned out great! You have truly showed that you have an animation style of your own. I love how this was a far more serious flash than the others, and in no way silly. I had no idea what was going on, but it did seem somehow more comprehensible than most of Weebl's stuff. You are obviously talented and it's great to have you here!

[Taco-Man hates the RIAA]

One of your best

It is too bad this is no longer that highly rated with the time it was put on. I still think this is great, because it has some of the best social commentary as shown in these Taco-man cartoons. There's a laugh every second, like with the girl becoming pregnant because of downloading music. It was also really funny when the music was changed at the end and when Taco-man was trying to say what his name was. It's great that you poke fun at yourself for not doing a lot of updates. I like the little twitching the old looking animations.

[Girlchan in Paradise Ep3]

Still good

It is hard to say what is my favorite part of this, as there are a lot of it. I like how Girlchan has really no appearances in this despite being the title character. I think that this is a step up from the animation used in the "Awesome" series as it has a little more story structure, not that it makes a lot more sense. The funniest part was probably when the owner of the restaurant was shot again, or, well, shot the first time. While not as good as your other stuff, there are still plenty of good references.

[Once More (With Feeling)]

Pretty nice

I was thinking this was going to make a turn for the darker, with like the character committing suicide or something, but it did not. I guess the animation was as good as ever. Some of the wide shots reminded me of stuff by Daniel Sun. The music was not too bad, and I think it is the first time I heard it. It's good because it works as a nice slice of life story simply because there's nothing unrealistic about it. This is how a lot of people feel in fact as many depressed people can associate with it fairly easily.

[Aderan Wars MMORPG]

Needs work

This came off as okay to me, and I think it needs a lot of stuff. First of all, there is the background, which is just a green (or whatever colored) screen which is not creative. It was also just strange to show a link to it and not the actual game. The designs for the characters is not terrible as it is simple but does have good designs. The symbol for this was pretty nice, and perhaps the best animated part of the whole thing. Next time, you should probably make it a demo of the game itself.

[This is My House!!!]

Not bad

I was surprised that this was made in 2003, as it is actually pretty good by today's standards. I liked how Link and the old man were designed differently; that made them unique. At first, I was thinking this was going to be just an infinite loop, but it did have an ending, but no "Replay" button. The negative parts of this is that it was pretty short and it did not seem to have a lot of humor to it. The funniest part was probably when he was being stabbed. With more punchlines, this could be really better.
