Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Madness combat claynation 3]

I have to admit I was a tad disappointed by this. It looked well in terms of claymation, but still not quite that unique. I liked the plastic bottles held over the zombies. The music was alright. It was still something different for Madness Day. Their heads looked like marshmallows.

Marshmallows, that is what the original Madness cartoon was. I know it was all clay. Claynation's a word I've never heard before. A nation of clay people? That's like something Knox would make! It's a pity he retired.

duffosaur responds:

kind of want to make a stop motion with marshmellows now

[Wish you were here]

Technically, it's the 20th year anniversary of Madness Combat. I thought Madness Day first came out in 2008? Anyway, this was still great. I'm reminded of those other short cartoons. This actually did have a fair amount of action. You got to see Tricky bite that one guy.

It's more action than a lot of those short cartoons! I would not want to be there. Well, this world seems a lot violent than most Madness flashes. It's nice to see the original characters here. I haven't seen guys like Tricky here that often.

[FRIDAY NIGHT MADNESS TRAILER]

I have to admit I wasn't that impressed by this trailer. Maybe it's because I'm not that much into FNF. This is still the first Madness Day 2022 submission I've seen related to it. Trailers can be longer. Well, this is still longer than some really short submissions. I'm glad you submitted it on the right day.

The characters sure look excellent. I'm sure it will be great. September 22nd wasn't a Friday, in case anyone's wondering. The chances are already 1 in 7! The animation still looks nice.

[Madness 4:20]

I think there were 56 deaths in this. Well, not really, seeing as how this guy was just high the whole time. This seemed more like LSD than weed. Then again, I've never been on either. I liked how he kept coming back to life. That showed he wasn't unkillable.

Well, if he comes back to life, he is in fact technically unkillable. You get the idea. Aww, you submitted this at 3:01 pm. If only it was 4:20! Still, this was wonderfully creative.

[MADNESS DEATHWISH 3]

I always try to count the number of deaths. I believe there were 98 deaths in this one. I just think in numbers! I'm starting to realize how much damage those poor buildings must take. They should collapse from all those bullet holes! Hell if I could keep up with the stories in all of these cartoons.

Maybe not the most unique Madness flash, but still wonderful. I liked how he wasn't that invincible. It was cool seeing guns and knives being used. At 3:15, people were actually crucified by being impaled through their palms, not their wrists. Then again, these guys have no palms.

[Krinkels.mp4]

Wait...Krinkels really looks like that? Dude, I've never even seen a picture of him! I loved the destruction and chaos as always. It seems like he had an interesting story arc. Here I was thinking the strongest guy at the end was who he was after. It was just the animator.

We all know how disgusting porn can be. Was the porn "Tricky bangbangooberblat"? Yeah, I've seen that one. I loved the grenades exploding at the end. What an inventive way to kill the strongest enemy.

thece responds:

I made the sprites based on his old sprites look in "Madness: project nexus classic" so I couldn't really say that he looks like that. You can check his pictures on his twitter though!

[Madness: Ghostification]

I believe there was a kill count of 56. I just had no idea what was going on. Where was this ghost power coming from? I guess it makes as much sense as anything else in Madness. This is easily the best I've seen all day! There were voice actors in this?

I couldn't hear any. This was bizarre and creative, very suiting for Madness Day. I thought having this head smashed would do him in for good. Damn, here I was thinking the flashes had low scores this year. They got better!

Gary responds:

The idea behind the ghost power was that his grunt buddies were sacrificing parts of themselves in the afterlife to keep him going. Anything else was pretty much just, "this is kinda cool and ghosts possess shit so why not" lmao.

And yea, there were a few voice actors. They just lent their voices to make some death sounds but I kept them quiet so they wouldn't be horribly out of place. Just a fun little thing.

[Grime Alley]

Sorry, but I wasn't that impressed by this. The animation was quite good. I will give you credit for submitting it at this time. Everything was Madness around here. Once again, you get higher ratings here. It was just too short to be great.

At least it was different than most flashes seen here recently. It does seem like it was based on a single webcomic. This was fine for something short. We need to see more animation like this.

[Kilroy Madness 5]

I got a body count of 8. I have to admit that was pretty low for a Madness cartoon. There were still things I really liked about this. I was impressed at these designs again. I was glad to see a woman actually kill someone for once! Well, women barely appear at all here.

Kilroy reminds me of World War II. I don't think this takes place during it. It's more like the Cold War era. It just took too long to get to the action. I guess it was at least unique.

[Boys' Night out in Nevada]

I thought this would be one of those "What Is Love?" memes. I'm glad it wasn't. That belongs on YTMND. The voices were great. I'm glad the guy still got his ice cream. I'm also glad there was some action.

A face being ripped off is enough action. At least it wasn't that Silky place. Ice cream's always awesome. That's awesome you haven't tried all the flavors. Most of us can't keep track of that anyway.
