Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

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.

[Cyberangel 888: Act 1/3]

Huh, emos

It is interesting to be introduced to a new series on this website. I can say that it seems to be starting off fairly well, even if it is a little hard to understand. Apparently this is supposed to take place in 2910, but I don't see any technological advancements. Of course, given how dishonest movies are about predicting the future, it's probably more realistic. Some of the characters did not have dialogue, but they all seem to be likeable. It seems like a pretty original idea that has many things in development.

[Tiny Japanese Girl]

Fantastic!!

You have made some truly fantastic stuff on Newgrounds, but this is among your best! It is easily the most mature thing that you have ever made. I loved every second of this, and thought that it had the best animation I had ever seen in one of your flashes. It is a huge departure from your regular stuff, but it manages to work as well, if not better than your other stuff! I loved the voices, especially the tiny Japanese girl. This shows off that you truly have an appreciation for flash as an art form!

[Tibetan Fox]

It was pretty funny

I really like how you use an actual photograph of a tibetan fox to emphasize how bored the character is. This reminds me of Egoraptor, although it does seem like it was made on a, well, lower budget than Egoraptor. What I mean is, if there was more color and moving, I would have liked this more. It is still fun to watch, simply because the premise is so funny. I love how this poor guy is being driven insane by the fox making that noise. That seriously looks like it could be the next Internet meme, like Serious Cat.

[Rebel T.M.N.T.]

It is early

I can tell that this is one of your earlier contributions because of how primitive it appears to be. It at least looks like that when compared to modern standards. It is interesting to see how this was a forerunner for the later cartoons which are much better. I do not like the animation in this as much due to the fact that it is simply less silly. It did have unexpected turns and I was not expecting for all the turtles to die. I would guess that this is not something really concerned about continuity.

[The Secret Speech]

Let freedom ring

Yep, it reminds me of when George W. Bush launched that first attack on Iraq. I distinctly remember seeing a video version of this, but I loved this cartoon version. The animation is really good in this one and I love how stupid George W. Bush looks with his Pikachu. I also love the large number of famous villians that appear in the crowds. It was also funny to see the Chipmunks and the Teletubbies there too. While we do not have this to worry about anymore, it's still funny to look back.
