Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[New Recruit]

Generation X indeed

This was one of the funniest cartoons that were released in the year 2002. What is truly fascinating is that the animation is this is just as good as it would be as it is in your stuff today. I love how you use your voice so well in this, especially with the Toyman and Solomon Grundy. Osama bin Laden is so funny seeing as how he gets so angrier than anybody. It is among the best satirical pieces about the war on terror. The ending is also really cool in that it shows another nostalgic cartoon, even if I did not watch it.

[Ask Raptor Jesus]

I am finally here

I knew that is was only a matter of time before you submitted something that I would give a "5" to. I loved how this is the first time I have ever seen Raptor Jesus in a Newgrounds flash or really any Internet video. The guy was such a popular meme I knew he had to show up somewhere. I liked seeing everybody and especially it was funny to see Captain Planet back. It's funny how the watermelon demands he answer the question when coming up with different replies was what they were just doing. Oh, and crossdressing is still funny.

thanks ericho!

[Puppets in the Park VIII]

This was decent

As the last one in the series, I think this was one of the weaker entries. It was nice of you to show some blood, like the blood that was splattered at the end. I think this is the first time you used a Waterman puppet that had those eyes. I recall that episode where his eyes are changed. Anyway, I think this probably has the best animation of all the episodes, even though the jokes were not that great. It was at least interesting to see you experiment with something while you work on the movie.

[Puppets in the Park VII]

I have no drunk uncles

This was another better entry into the series, probably because the jokes made more sense to me. It was funny how you used the Humpty Dumpty and alligator puppets that you used earlier. I also like how this shows more of the background. Like, you can see Waterman's head in this one as well as the ends of the orange and red striped piece of paper. If that was made of candy, I do not know of any candy that could be such an unattractive gray. It was cool to see all those guys run at the end.

[Birrus]

I love the pink color

It was funny how you made up your own name for an animal by combining two words. This did not have much action and it was pretty short, but it is still a great cartoon. What is cool is that all of the ideas (and designs obviously) are all of your own. The funniest part is when the birrus turns into Pedobear. You are a credit to all of the people who work at the Shiftlimits website or whomever you work for. The animation is extremely fluid, and everyone moves in a realistic way, or as realistic as a birrus could move.

[Puppets in the Park VI]

Don't take candy from strangers, either

This was better than the previous entry probably because I was able to understand that it was Waterman doing the puppeteering. I really like how deadpan he sounds in this. It was also funny to see all of those babies just run around in circles and crying. There could have been some more jokes, but overall, it was enjoyable. I was actually going to say something about this myself somewhere along the line of that moral at the end. The animation is as good as anything that you have submitted.

[Puppets in the Park V]

Not bad

I remember seeing all of yours on your website a long time ago. It is not as good as your "Waterman" series, but it definitley has all the good animation and jokes you need. It reminds me of the "Potter Puppet Pals", even though I enjoy those better. In case anybody is wondering, the note on the plant says, "Mom, needed plant for beanstalk. I'll bring it back later. - Waterman". I can not wait until your movie is finally released. It was nice to let us watch these while we are waiting.
