Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Barbershop Quartet...]

Oh shiiiiiiiii*

This was a fairly short cartoon, but simply a great one. What matters is that you really know how to take a single punchline and build up to it with not just one, but two major factors. I think this may have some of the best animation in terms of how the cars and the lights were drawn. I also liked it how you did not just end on the guy ruining it, but with the car crashing. Then you go and make the car crashing not even that big a deal in the first place when it happens. The character design is as great as ever.

[1.5 Flopsy Chlorine]

This was okay

I swear those long breasts are some of the most disturbing things I've seen in a cartoon. The people with them don't even look like women at all! It was particularly scary when the old lady was walking on them and they acted like arms! With that out of the way, I felt this had some good jokes but was not something that I would recommend. My biggest complaint is that this just goes on a little too long and could use some music or something. The fries gag was just too monotonous.

[Larkmart - Emergency]

Simply awesome

I wasn't able to use my computer so that's probably why I missed out on this awesome cartoon. The animaton is simply fantastic and it is something that is truly in a league of its own. It kind of reminded me of the latest "Professor Layton" entry, but I think this was more well done. The funniest part was the end when he thought the wife did phone sex. The fact that the dynamite phone exploded was all this needed to get a 5. I'm glad to be introduced to a new style of work and new characters.

[Autism - Inside a Bubble]

Very cute

I just had to see this if for no other reason than it was great to learn about autism. I think awareness for this is being raised because of that Temple Gradin movie. I loved that movie, and I would now as I am on the autism spectrum with Asberger's. While the animation was not the best, you put forth a message that I could associate with. It is wonderful you are teaching more awareness of something that is so common. I hope that we will be able to learn from this and it was adorable to use your boys for this.

PapaQ responds:

Thank you, I haven't seen the Temple Movie yet, although we do want too.
We've both worked closely with all levels of autism and never cease to be amazed by the great characters and amazing people we meet.

[Apples and Tangerines]

I just loved this

I am simply amazed this did not win a single award of any kind (positive, at least). You have worked hard to show us the beauty in the world around us, but also the ugliness. It seems like something a younger kid would draw, so that it truly reflects childhood innocence. I believe that was what the main kid character was trying to represent. It also helps that this is some of the most beautiful music I have heard, even if it wasn't from the audio portal. You get to see so much of what our world is about.

[Little Drawings]

It was sweet

While you don't seem to be that experienced in flash, this was pretty good simply because of how cute it was. I was thinking it would be a Valentine's Day centered thing, as that's what I have been watching lately. You showed nice little things that go on in everyday life. The things in the cartoon moved well and flowed with each other. The choice of music was nice as well. If you put in some more variety (meaning putting more things in it) it could be much better.

[Generic Sprite Flash: 2]

Funniest part is the title

While I can't remember what happened in the first one (if I even saw it) this was pretty enjoyable to watch. I don't like these Zelda sprites much, but seeing as how this was obviously a parody it did not matter. I also like when Link was wondering what he was doing on that journey in the first place. Everything seems to be pretty authentic to the feel. I'm glad I know where that village scene comes from, as I had seen it in "Domo-Kun's Angry Smashfest". Keep up the decent work.

Fro responds:

:P

The village scene comes from an older game named Golden Axe.

Thanks for the review!

[Stick Killage]

Very okay

I can tell that this is something you are making in the early stages of your work. I can not quite find a lot of things that unique, but it does have a good amount of style. You made a stick flash that was as good as a standard one at least. I thought it was cool how you used different colors and did not just focus on one guy. Next time, I would suggest using more detail in the surroundings and maybe some music as well. You may want to watch "Stick Killing Arena" for a good example.
