Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Where was Daisy in the Mario Strikers Battle League Trailer?]

This was a pretty good cartoon. It just doesn't rank among your best. Dang, I'm starting to lose track of the Mario games. Well, they're too many to count now anyway. I'm at least glad to be aware of them. I was just hoping for more action.

The thumbnail seemed to promise that! It's still a cute little cartoon. That's what you're most known for, anyway. I'm now starting to realize the impact of the Mario mythos. It really has developed over time.

[ToeJam and Earl - Third Leg]

Not one of your best, but still good. My favorite part was the animation. I mean, it was really fell set up here with good movements. I knew where that leg joke was going. I have in fact heard of ToeJam and Earl. They had platformers with everyone and everything in the 90s.

This was definitely funky. It was quite authentic to the original game. Well, from what I know of it. The animation, while fluid, did look a bit dated. I'm still happy to have seen it.

Bobert-Rob responds:

Well thanks! I mostly enjoyed the script because of the censorship line, to be honest. But the flow of the whole thing was good enough that i figured it'd be fun for a quick animation. Not cream of the crop by any means, but still fun.

Also, not sure what you mean by 'dated' in regards to the animation style. I'm trying new things all the time, not sure how it can look dated. I mean, I don't do that uber anime inspired everything-has-to-be-dynamic-camera-angles-and-action-movie-visual-porn that seems to be the trend, but I see that as a good thing. That crap gets old quick. Also I'm just one animator?

[Ballfrog shows of his diving]

Yeah, this didn't do much for me. It was mostly because so little happened. I guess the animation wasn't bad. It was still nice to see normal looking frogs. I'm sorry that I'm not into the original game. At least the concept was original.

This needed some sound. I'm glad it wasn't just a blank background. I often get those on downvoted flashes here. Well, I wouldn't know the first thing about how to make it. I'd like to see more gameplay.

[Apple Friend]

That was surprisingly dark. He seemed like a pretty friendly seed. That's what he was, right? I'm glad it wasn't a worm or anything. He wasn't much of a friend back. This had nice animation for me.

It just wasn't great. You use green well. I'm still glad to have come by it. Well, the rating's high. At least he's having fun.

[Jesus' Betrayal : What Really Went Down]

Well, that didn't offend me. Dude, I'm seen standup by Doug Stanhope and Jim Jefferies. I didn't know where this was even going. I love the inclusion of modern day stuff. I just didn't like the animation. You're usually better.

That was probably part of the charm. Why does Judas have a Fu Manchu? Well, I guess it makes as much sense as anything else here. The leprosy joke started out wonderfully. I'm glad Jesus wasn't killed.

[framily freud]

I loved this, especially the end. Seth looks like a tomato. The Shadow Realm? There's no way that can't be a Yu-Gi-Oh reference. The animation was great too. I just had no idea where this cartoon would go.

I feel like we got to learn about these characters. You achieved your goal of making a great cartoon. The orange shades worked great too. Maybe it's just because orange is my favorite color. I guess none of them were right.

[Doe and Queen: Improper Lab Attire]

This was a very funny cartoon. I was just expecting more of a punchline. Then again, that might have just led to something more vulgar. I can still appreciate how beautiful the animation is. Don't worry, I'm not turned on by her. Um, should I be?

The voicework was amazing! I would love to see longer cartoons like this! Deer are cute. Well, not the one in "Grown Ups 2". I wish Louis CK could comment on that one.

[Psycho Essence #8 The Boltzmann Brain Hotspot]

Wow, I had no idea it would be this good! It looked like something out of "Warhammer 40K". I've never even played any of those things! I just know they're really dark and gritty. This had absolutely gorgeous animation. The best part was how well the 2D and 3D worked together.

You could create a wonderful new world out of that! Well, wonderful as it well done. This is anything but wonderful as in nice. It's simply very creative. I'm glad to have come across it. It's even part of a bigger series.

[AMERICAN BALLFROG]

I loved this because of its animation. I'm not really into the whole Ballfrog game. Could this be the next FNF? No, certainly not. I knew the punchline would be something hop related. I've come to expect that from frogs.

They really do bounce around well. I haven't seen "American Psycho". I like the idea of this ballfrog being secretly psychotic. The game was indeed very hard for me. I can understand his frustration.

[Harut Dance Animation]

The title made me think of "Haruhi Dance". You know "Hare Hare Yukai"? I love your artwork. There really was a lot of animation in this. I just loved seeing him move so nicely. I remember almost all your other submissions.

Well, this was a step down, at least in terms of length. It's still great for a short cartoon. The backgrounds were certainly colorful as well. I liked seeing those sketches. If only there was color of his other clothes.
