Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Clawk dai oh shleven]

Reason for reviewing

I am reviewing this because it got a really high score on the portal, so I figured it could not be half bad. I know what it is like to have a flash submitted on Clock Day that most people hate. I was not even fortunate enough to get one that had such a high rating. At least you are honest about your intentions and are not looking for something great. Oh, and it is also my 21st birthday in case you wanted to know. I guess the color was pretty bad and there was little action in the whole thing at all, really.

iateamexican responds:

Happy birthday.

[Death's Dayjob]

Cute

I guess I never thought that a literal dead baby comedy would ever come off as cute, but this was nice. I guess the delivery of jokes was not the best, but the punchline was well worth it. This flash's strongest point is how good the animation is. I really like how the characters and the backgrounds are drawn. It is among the most unique styles that I have ever seen in a cartoon, and I wish I knew how you did the animation on this. This is my 21st birthday and it was great to see this on this very special day.

eat-at-joes-guy responds:

Glad you thought so highly of it, and happy 21st.

[Jet Animals Chirstmas]

TV?

I am glad that you are actually planning on making a TV show set for 2012, but this needs a lot of work. The weakest point is probably the animation. While not the worst I have seen, you should work harder to make things like line structure or shading effects. I admit that the animals eating the human was pretty unexpected. Then again, those are dinosaurs (right?) that are eating the turkey (right?). I could not get a lot of the jokes in this, so I guess you should just try to have more original material.

[A Jorb Well Done]

What a nice birthday present!

I had been a loyal fan of Homestar Runner for years now and I was also a fan of Newgrounds. I find it amazing that you finally decided to submit perhaps the most famous flash cartoon of all time to Newgrounds! I love watching this because it is great to see how far Homestar Runner has gotten. The animation and humor are still very impressive even by modern standards. I hope that this is the real Matt Chapman finally coming here to Newgrounds! How can Coach Z make a sound if he doesn't even have a mouth?

[All UR Gays Belong to Ass]

Very good

I think this was the best All Your Base tribute that hit the website when it first came on the screen. I have nothing against gay people or anything, but I just found this really funny. What is so funny is that you just have no idea what is going to show up next. George W. Bush dancing in his underwear was really funny. It is so funny to see him being made of before the infamous September 11th attacks. All the Photoshopped images are funny and they are original and have not even been re-used today!

[EEnE Z Episode 9]

That was something

This is one of the craziest submissions I have seen in a long time! I was amazed at how ridiculous the designs seemed to be and how everyone just seemed to have different android names. Granted, that is because I have not seen the other entries in the series. While the dialogue needed some work, it was definitley worth seeing for how creative it was. I am not a fan of "Ed, Edd 'n Eddy" but I think this really did the characters justice. The designs came off as weird at first, but I got used to them quickly.

SSJ5G responds:

Lol, with a crossover between EEnE and DBZ, it's really hard to keep everyone in-character, but the fact I managed it is proof enough any crossover can be attempted with the right situation, and the right story. As for the sprites themselves, I had to edit about 80% of the sprites you see. There is only one that qualifies as a shameless recolor in this submission, but, oh well. The rest of them had to be edited to fit the characters.

[Living With OCD]

YES!!

I love this cartoon simply because I have a brother who has bad OCD and I know just what you are going through (or what the guy in the movie is going through). My brother is always closing doors over and over and can never get anything done. He is so bad he is afraid to even brush his teeth or take a shower in fear of his OCD. It is a truly horrible tragedy that has begotten our family for nearly a decade now!! The good news is that he is on medication as he should be, but we are not finding the right kind for him. I love you for just raising awareness of this serious issue.

As for the flash itself, it was good and the music was good and everything, although it could have used color. Gosh, I was just thinking about my brother with his OCD right before I watched this!

albiokay responds:

im sorry to hear about your brother :[
i wish you and your family the best of luck
as for the flash, i was going for a simple, minimalist, black and white style, so i didn't want to use any color.
that, and i only had a week to make this :P
thanks for the kind words though :]
