Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Men's Room Monologue]

Deserves its success

I have always enjoyed watching (or in this case listening) to stand up comedy so putting it in animation is always a great idea. I love this because it is a completely normal thing that anyone can associate themselves with. We have all had to go to urinals at one point in our lives. I can just go on all day about my philosophy on this. I think the funniest part might have been the little girl who said, "Daddy, look, he made a potty too!". The animation was not great, but is so entertaining you simply do not care.

Love the action and comedy

This was one of the best ways there was both action and comedy in pretty equal parts. As I am a big fan of both, you could really appeal to all tastes, not to mention the animation was great. I think the big football guy reminds me of Strong Mad from Homestarrunner. Of course, the funniest part was the black guy who kept saying, "IgottashitIgottashit"! It is a pity this came to an end, but it was great while it lasted. It is also great how the seemingly unrelated scenes still seem to blend well.

[SS Time Trials 5]

Some of the best guys

I can understand why this won the "Review Crew Pick" award and it is about time I gave a 10 to one of these submissions. It is pretty sad how TheStarSyndicate name is not even on this submission. Highlights were hearing the "Numa Numa Dance" song sped up with the Pope one. However, the best one was the one by AubergineLock. I think it may in fact have been the first time I ever heard that gay bar song. It was also great that you satirized current events, which is actually kind of rare for the Star Syndicate.

[Megaman Zero- The Last Cataclysm]

Very deep

I do not know much about these characters themselves, but it is easy to so why this is popular. It has some of the most creative and fascinating sprite work in a Mega Man flash. It is something which is truly not action motivated, but character motivated. I love these voices and am glad you only got the top notch actors for these. I love the little things going on in the background and the designs and everything. If anybody was going to make a great movie based on a video game, it would be like this.

[Sloppy Fight 2]

It will never end!

This was an awesome cartoon to watch because it shows that the action genre will never stop being cool. "Dragonball Z" style fighting and "Matrix" music will simply never go out of our roots. It also helps that the animation is great and the sticks are so cool to use. The best part is near the end with that big machine. All of the little things make this good, like the tank swirling in the vortex. This is a demonstration of what Newgrounds and other action cartoons are all about and how this site will never die!

[Madness Depredation]

One of the best

This is one of my favorite entries in the series and definitley the best before, say, 2006. You really even manage to keep me up by learning vocabulary as I had no clue what "depredation" even meant. I think this really sets up the mythos of the series well. It shows Hank, Jebus, and Tricky in their best environments that shows who they are and what they do. The music is some of the best giving out a real twisted and haunting tone. Hank's design in this may be the best he has had in the series.

[We Are Robots - Gothbot]

No, a dead cat

This is where the robots interacting with each other seems to really meet full circle. I loved this cartoon because it was a great representation of the stereotypical goth. Kegomatic's cameo make it for me, but she should have met Sadbot. I find it funny how Gothbot complains about her sister always getting more attention, but later she says she annoyed at her mother giving her affection. You really get the sense that she has only herself to blame for her woes. The voices and animation were great and appropriate as usual.

[Hell On Earth- Episode 1]

The real Dane Cook!

It must have been so awesome to get an actual celebrity to do a voice in your cartoon. You would think that you would become a more noted animator because of that. I think this is one of the lesser things you have submitted, but still funny. It is a bit sad how this never got more than one episode as you apparently planned for more. I like the old man in this and how annoyed he gets at Dane and the demon baby. It does kind of make you wonder how that portal to Hell got there in the first place.
