Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[BIGGER B]

It is bigger

Hmm, it's a pity you didn't submit this exactly on August 15th, but it is pretty close. It does really give off the impression that it took, little effort to make. It looks kind of sloppy; I mean, at least StrawberryClock had a "B" in his movie that used actual text. It's nice that you are trying to pay tribute to all of the things the Clock Crew has done. I hope you had a very happy Clock Day this year. Next time, I would suggest butting more letters other than "B" and making some moving around a bit.

[Counter-Strike vs Pokemon]

They work great together

I knew I was going to see something good when I would see "Counter Strike" and "Pokemon" in the same cartoon! It's cool how this was a dark take on "Pokemon", but not one that was about how it was horrible. The best animation was probably when Charizard was eating the guy. I loved how the 2D animation of the characters contrasted with the 3D animation of the background. It could've used a bit more action, but the idea is so awesome it's worth watching. All in all, it's a good idea that was executed well.

[Rise of the brotherhood 1]

A great start!

This is quite an impressive start to this interesting flash series. I have to appreciate the animation, if only sprite work, everything is done very well. Apart from having good action scenes, it's great that you try to attach some real deep meaning to this. The voice actors all did a great job in this and it's not often you see something that has so many people working on voices! Rina-chan and everyone else were very appropriate to their characters. I would love to do voice work for this series myself, as it has a lot of good emotion in it.

I loved the tone

I really like this one, if only because of the philosophy that it preached. The animation was very nice, especially how the blue clouds were made. It really hits you hard when you realize the person in this movie died at the age of 21. The flashback scenes were very nice, and it seemed like something from an old painting. You have taught us that we should always appreciate the people who come into our loves, as we won't have them forever. Thank you for spreading this warm and important message.

Jessismith responds:

Thanks man. That means a lot to me. Yeah, it's sad to think about. It's too bad we only get one chance at life, but at least there's still good that come after life. Well, I didn't mean for those to be flashbacks but shots of the afterlife. I should have made that clear, but I was animating directly to the song, so I guess the meaning could only be interpreted through the lyrics. Thank you so much for the insightful comment. I wanted to say just that. You never know how much you truly need someone until they're gone...for sure.

[Muffin Mix]

Muffins!

This was a pretty good cartoon, even if it wasn't one of my favorites. I kind of think the whole "muffin/cookie" whatever thing about getting eaten has been done many times before. Still, it's still an interesting idea to use, and it helps the animation is so good. It doesn't really try to be goofy, but is inacted as a realistic representation on what it would be like if muffins could talk. It was cool how the blueberry (the muffin's eye) popped out. This works fine as being a short story that has some nice color effects.

[Albatross -- Sbc Style]

Nice text

I have to admit I don't like it when people submit one frame stuff to Newgrounds, especially on Clock Day. I hope you had a very happy Clock Day even though you are not a Clock yourself. I was impressed by the kind of text that was used. It looked like some ancient Roman or Greek thing or something and I haven't seen anything like that. At least you were able to be original and send something not everyone is familiar with. Speaking of which, I haven't seen the albatross skit, so I couldn't understand this thing at all.

SilentCobra responds:

Actually, the font is the Iron Maiden font. And yes, while I am not a clock crew member myself, I did have a rather nice clock day. I really did enjoy the "Life In The Portal: Clock Day" and the "Ruled By Clocks" submissions. Those are damn funny. Thanks for the review.

[The One True King]

A great clock crew flash!

I wasn't expecting that much, but this cartoon really did have a lot of depth to it! The animation was really nice and it was cool to see that block that had the label of the flash submissions on it! I was surprised CorpseGrinderClock did not appear in this, but it was great to see everyone. The action scene with the Portal Bot was nice, if brief. It was also funny to see StrawberryClock casually reject his position. They should make an archive or something of the week's King Of The Portal.

CorpseGrinderClock responds:

There's really no point to making such an archive, because it would be just a long list that would say "strawberryclock is the king of the portal

And that would be redundant, wouldn't it? Maybe not the worst idea though...kind of has a ring to it now that I think of it...
