Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zelda Files: Chapter 2]

Not bad

This was a pretty fun thing to watch, even if it did not have a lot of action sequences or anything. It's just a strange format when you let your viewer watch the next part of it without dialogue, so they sort of know what's coming next. The funniest line was the one about them running into his sword. It's just so strange to see Link playing the "Legend Of Zelda" game. When the other guy was talking about Zelda, I could not tell if he was talking about the game or the game...they're in?! It's a decent series.

[Vete a la Versh 13]

One of your best

Seeing as how every single entry in your series has gotten a score of at least 4.30, I knew I had to check this out. The animation is very fluid in this one, which works just as great as any of the other entries. The only downside was that it was pretty short, and I would have liked a full song. Still, you do know how to make learning Spanish pretty fun. I took two years and I still can't remember much, but will probably be more encouraged to learn from your stuff. You can never be unfunny while mentioning diarrhea.

[LoZ: The Show Must Go On]

Quite impressive

I am looking forward to the Four Swords Misadventures thing, but this was a great thing to wait with! I was impressed by how well the lips synched with the song. The use of all the different kinds of games and Links was very creative as well. Despite being sprite characters, these guys manage to have a lot of depth to them, especially as they sing. I'm a huge Queen fan, but this is one song I do not think I had heard of. I am glad that you introduced me to a new song by my favorite band.

[I want a rock!]

I guess there have been worse

The animation was not the worst I had ever seen, but you really need to work on a joke. The trouble with this is that it is just way too short. If you are making something like this, the animation has to be a lot better and not just mediocre. I suggest making it longer, although at least you put that preloader in the beginning, which is something I could not do. Do you need to have flash to use that preloader? Anyway, work on better delivery and more tension built up.

[Megaman X7 Preloader Test]

Testing?

I think there may be a rule stating that you can not release flashes if they are simply tests. Of course, as you have excelled at nearly every category in Newgrounds, you were probably the exception. I believe this was used in your other Megaman submission. I tried submitting something, but it did not work with downloading the beginning. I think you have to buy Flash Player, which costs hundreds of dollars anyway. This was probably one of your lesser spam submissions.

[Waiting for the Bus 2]

Bummer

"Waiting For The Bus" is one of my favorite Newgrounds submissions of all time and I had no idea there would be a sequel. I thought this one might address why that bus kept running for twenty years and who put the bomb on. Probably gets a 9 simply because the credits were so awesome and probably longer than the actual flash. True, I was expecting a lot more, but this is irony that I am talking about. Oh yeah, the animation was good and it was the only time I stayed through the whole credits. It kept the style up well.

[Madness Desintegration 2]

It just never ends

It amazes me that of all the things this series has gone through, it will never run out to do! This is one of the longest Madness tributes I have ever seen and one of the best! The huge number of things that go on in this makes way for more and more creativity. It was great to see the different designs and there was so much variety that I could not even remember the name of a single one. I think my favorites might be the ones with the faces on the characters, so I can see their impression. It is obvious a lot of people put a lot of work into this and I am glad!

[Abnormality SideStory 1]

Good style

It has been awhile since I have seen your animation style. I am almost starting to think that it is similar to Daniel Sun or even Sirkowski. Anyway, this was cool if only because of the impressive animation. I could barely understand a thing, but I think the use of audio was very impressive and I especially loved how the green blocks moved and looked so CGI. I did not even think it was that short, as I have seen ones that were a lot shorter. It was cool to use so many audio submissions.

[Popeye's Adventure]

This was good

I liked how funny it was when you yourself mentioned that it was too hard to animate something. I could tell this was an animesque take on Popeye, but the biggest problem was that Bluto and Olive Oyl weren't in it that much. I mean, I loved the designs of the monsters, but it did not seem like it was living up to the original Popeye much. Still, it was at least nice of you to include them at the end. As for the animation, it was a little rough but still good probably because I appreciate the unique designs of the monsters. It seems like people should make more Popeye cartoons here.

[Hi res drinks: Fanta]

Really needs work

I admit that the music to this was pretty good, but the problem was that it just did not have much else for it. I like Fanta as much as the next guy, but this does not have much else for me. I guess it's an original idea but it is just not that good for me. I am impressed this managed to get passed and I hope you continue to get fans, I guess. Next time look for more of a story and some dialogue. I would love to do some work for you if you wanted me to.
