Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Metamorphosis...]

Needs more love

I really enjoyed watching this cartoon even if it did not have the most action or anything. I loved it because the animation was just fantastic and it is obvious you put tons of effort into this with all of the programs you used. You have no clue what is going to happen next. I have always been a fan of drawing spider legs for some reason and this seems just like something that I would draw. I recognize the music, but not the name of the band who plays it. With more action and a story, this could be more popular.

[Ben Spurgin Demo Reel 04]

Rest in peace

This is becoming better all the time, simply because you will not be able to do this anymore. I guess it might sound kind of silly to say "you" when creator Ben Spurgin is dead. This guy left beyond a legacy that is shown off in this great showcase. I like how it is not just a random tune, but actually an interesting song that has relevance as to what is going on in the demo reel. Seeing all of these together makes it easier for me to recognize Ben's art style. This was among Ben's best work and I am proud to be the first to review it after his death.

[Pico's Time Tank]

Truly great

You have been an hour or so late from making the date of 4/30, but at least you made something terrific. I did not even notice until now that you could press the "Smash" button at the beginning and hit that Uber-kid with the shovel. Well, Pico hits the Uber-kid. This is a fantastic cartoon from start to finish. Of all the things people have done with time travel, this is the first time a tank was used. It seemed as though Pico was not even traveling through time, but to different settings fighting off an array of different enemies, which makes it all the more creative.

[Mr.Otto in Olympics!]

Your best!

This is my favorite submission from you, because it is by far the funniest. While your other stuff was funny because it was more subtle in its humor, this is funny for being just the opposite. There is straight up hilarity, like in a Wile E. Coyote cartoon or something. I only wish that I could find out where your other submissions like "Yes & No" are under another name. It was a great idea to have this be the intro to your website. The Olympics give you a lot of room to show different funny things.

[KKM3]

Underrated

I think that this is one of the greatest underrated flashes that you or anyone else has submitted. I simply love the way these characters move as well as the music. It seems almost similar to "Madness Combat" but it has so much originality, it is truly in a league of its own. I guess it reminds me of MC because I like how the red blood contrasts with the black and white surroundings. This has the best action in the series as it is one guy fighting many people. There is no dialogue, just straight up cool action you need in an NG flash.

[ILoveEgg Special-EggSong]

It's the best!

I love this cartoon because it is one of the cutest things I have ever seen in my life! This series was just so adorable it was just irrestible to have a showcase of its greatest stuff. I can see why this is the most voted on and viewed in the "I Love Egg" series. There are just so many things that you can do with these fantastic designs. Some are more action-like (I especially love the Gundam transformation) and others are just fun to look at. The voice is also a great cheery one and the animation is of course flawless.

[All Your Bass]

One of the first

This was one of the first "All Your Base" parodies that I ever saw on Newgrounds. I was thinking it sounded like something from a video game and I was of course completely right. I just love how Bass moves in this and how he seems so fluidly everywhere. I also love the huge variety of different Mega Man stuff used in this. As "Megaman Goes To Hell" is my favorite submission from you, it was also great to see it featured. I love the sprite work and how you showed the extended version of the song.

[Peanut Butter Jelly 2004]

Cool ideas!

I love this flash cartoon because I think that it has some of the best examples of the song I have ever heard. I love how Banana Man (that is his name, right?) is animated in this one, particularly with how you omitted the dark lines around his body. Of course, the background is black so I would not be able to tell. There is just always something going on, with the baseball bat giving off a different animation impression. Even the credits are written in a cool style. That sandwich at the beginning looks like it has cheese instead of peanut butter or jelly.

[Pokemon All Your Base]

You're a credit to pokemon

While you may have changed your name, what matters is that you are a loyal fan of "Pokemon". While it was just a bunch of images over and over, what matters is that this is the same as any All Your Base entry. The artwork at the beginning with the superimposed characters is really nice too. I just love seeing all of the variety that the pokemon characters have to them. It makes me proud to be a fan of the pokemon franchise and I am glad it made the "All Your Base" collection. Thank you for being courageous.
