Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Solid Sticks 2]

First after the first?

You still manage to keep up by making great cartoon after great cartoon. It may have been a little confusing, but I did like it how it just seemed to take a completely different turn halfway through the cartoon. I just loved seeing those guys as the best part was the lines around them. What I mean is, the lines that represented air or them moving through air. You had no clue what was going on, like the white black headed guy getting a long arm. That ending animation twice is twice as good as normal.

[Solid Sticks]

Always good

Looking back, I realize that you always had great animation and effects in everything you did. Even the "Replay" button at the end was really cool, with how it faded in and out like that. The sounds were really cool and authentic. I understand why you use the phrase "Solid Sticks" as they do seem to be like sticks but have a real solid body. While not as flashy as your latter submissions, it was still very cool to watch. There were lots of things going on, like when they were flying and gaining energy and stuff.

[Leo & Satan II]

Shatan!

Well, this has got to be one of the best submissions I have seen on Newgrounds in a long time. What is so cool is how you had that awesome action-y intro. It was also great to see those really cool pictures and icons, and I can understand why you thanked the guy who did the icon. What amazes me is just how silly and stupid this whole thing is. It was cool to see Leo next to the cat and everything turn out in the end. I love these voices, particularly with how stupid and childish they sound and how it fits Leo and Satan's personalities so well, as I would be willing to do voice work on this too.

[A Sticky Night of Love]

Animutations forever!

This is among the most creative animutations I have ever watched, or really any other kind of thing I have ever watched. I think watching this may in fact have been the first time I ever heard of "Neon Genesis Evangelion". I now realize that I love these animations for being truly unique and I could just spend the entire day reading stuff on the submilinal advertisements. Some at the beginning said, "You Love This" in large letters and "Tuesdays Not Withstanding" on the lower left hand screen. The ones that fill the whole page at first say, "Next Time on 'The Cheese Grater and You'": Hobo maintenance that you can perform in your own room". Pause the screen to find out the other ones.

[Leek Clock Spin]

What can I say?

This is a fairly entertaining submission, due to the fact that it has most of what you would want in something like this. With all the clock names around, there was bound to be a Leek Clock. As the Clock Crew is known for messing with memes, it is a good way to capitalize on that. I have never heard of a ToothbrushClock before or whatever clock was on the preloader. It was also pretty cool to hear the whole song. It still is not that much to look at, but it seems to be appropriate given the material.

StonesOfAnarchy responds:

i'm toothbrush clock
that "weird" clock on the preloader was my old clock. Il change it on later flash

[The Urkle Collection]

Not the worst

I think this was not one of the worst series in the "Collection" series. I was kind of disappointed to find out that Coolboyman (AKA StrawberryClock) did not work on this. The biggest thing this needs is work on audio, as I have no clue what is wrong with the speakers, but it is very unclear. There were actually only three shorts here, as the one in the lower right hand corner is not clickable. At least some of them stopped after a certain time. It was pretty funny to have that theme song on the menu.

[Ashura The Hedgehog Intro]

Great tribute!

I do hope that this gets made into a flash anime series, as it is a great intro. I had never heard of Ashura before I went to this website and played that one game with medals. The music is great (although obviously you did not make it). I love how creative you managed to be with all the characters and how you showed their role in the animation. You also made a great decision to have that higher resolution background. It looks to be a great series that will be good in its own right and not regarded as just an imitator of something more popular.

[Hail Macbeth! Teaser]

MacBeth?

I would have hoped this was a little longer, but it was still a pretty good cartoon to watch. With all of our modern popular culture, it is great to see people go back to Shakespearan roots. I hope you did well in your British literature class. It woud have been nicer if you intended to make this into a full movie, but perhaps you are not. I think this is a good retelling of the story as it gets the spirit of it quite well done. I know all about the play "Macbeth" as I am a big fan of classic literature myself.

[[2010] REBOOT 11]

First one I saw

I have no clue what is going on at all as I have not seen the other entries. It is still great to watch this, as it is simply a very impressive cartoon to watch at all. It has some of the most innovative animation I have seen in a long time and I love the block style. I wish I had any idea why Link was there, and why that green girl was shot and then not shot? As always, Kira Buckland was flawless as the voice of the fairy. I was very impressed by the deep mood this created and it is obvious that you have talent.
