Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[BomberMan vs Altair]

Much better!

I like this a ton better than your previously done Zelda series, as the animation is much better. It was great of you to use actual voices, even though it was only for one character. I really enjoyed just seeing the bombs flying around everywhere. It looks a little old, but it still manages to be great in that sense! I was able to get into these character's heads more and think about what they were doing. As I know little about Bomberman, it was interesting to see lots of new twists being put in the story.

[Zelda Eclipso Episode 4]

Too long

I think that this just seemed to go on too long mostly because it felt like there could have been more music. I loved the music and the fight scenes but there needed to be more of them. The artwork just looks old fashioned and not that recent. I have to comment that Marina has some of the biggest breasts I have seen in a flash cartoon. Still, I have not seen the other entries in the series, so I can not judge it. The battle scenes that were there were really well done and the characterization is decent.

[DBZ: Hope of the Universe]

That was strange

You are more known for your goofier animations that are parodies, but I did not see how this was a parody. I think that this would have worked better if it was an actual action flash and not comedy. Besides the bloopers, I could not see much comedy in it at all. It does, however, show off what I think is the best animation you make in these cartoons. All of the characters have real depth and fighting power to them. The bloopers were pretty cheesy, but that was probably the point.

Not English?

It does not matter what nationality you are, as long as you worked to create something decent. I think the funniest part of this was when Link found out he needed that rupee. I like how it just seems to end on a completley different note. I think this is a better format than when the images gradually come in (or at least the speech bubbles). As I can view this now, I think it may have worked better as a webcomic. Of course, this has such an ongoing story it probably is best to present it in this form.

this one i made before i worked with greatwh1teshark
then i just liked to make a page whenever i was bored and let them show to some of my friends. i think i worked on it for a year... but i made a page every 2 weeks so i didnt do much about it. it ended on a difrend note because i watch a lot of animation and from that i get my ideas so everytime i was working on it, it became a little bit difrent every time. and at some point i decided to put it all together and put it on newgrounds :P

Nice enough

Being a long time reviewer, I have learned that stick flashes are extremley popular on this website. I liked how this seemed to have a style of its own, with the way the characters moved. I will say it would have been better if there was more detail put in. The stick figures and backgrounds in their raw forms look kind of bland. It is still sweet to hear that really great music as the never ending action goes on. It has no more point than any other stick flash, so it fits in fairly nicely on this website with the other ones.

You are welcome

Call me nostalgic, but it is interesting to watch the show back when it had four cast members. I like how you showed your knowledge of history by mentioning that the real Santa Claus died centuries ago. While the animation may seem simplistic, it is still a great way to show off your pure creativity. The funniest part was probably when he was a murderer because he stepped on a bug. I also like the milkman's voice and how much badness that caused. That is one long Coca-Cola bus.

I was born a metaphor!

As this is your first flash submission, let me say that you are definitley a flash artist, my good friend! This has some of the most innovative animation I have seen in a long time. It is a cartoon that really makes you stop and think about what is going on. Little Red Riding Hood is awesome and this may in fact be my favorite Little Red Riding Hood I have ever seen! The dialogue is perfect, and I do wonder why that guy is supposed to look part man in the first place. There's no granny in this one, just straight up intelligence and no crap from you or anyone in the cartoon!

[FF6 Terra's Theme Piano]

How beautiful

I was not really able to understand this, as I have not played any of the Final Fantasy games. I did really like how this had such a great melody to it is was a tune of hope and remorse. I guess we were supposed to believe that this character had killed people. I find it hard to believe, seeing as how gentle she seems, but that makes it all the better. You have truly made your characters believable, even if they are only on screen for a short time. I would love to see this made into a series, and not just a short music video.

[The Old Man and the Sea]

Quite clever

I am not going to lie to you, this is a very interesting cartoon to watch. What is so cool is the animation and especially when you reference "The Old Man And The Sea". I do not want this to become a political forum, but it was nice how this made fun of atheists. I have no idea if this thing ever ends, but I realize that it does now. It actually seems to be like something I myself would say in a YouTube video as I have done videos like this even with the bad sound quality. MarlinClock is also cute.
