Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[AIRBORNE - Episode 4 - Jenn's Chance]

Aww, so this is basically "Pokemon" with dragonflies. Well, Pokemon already has dragonflies. I will admit there could have been more action. It's a very creative world. It was cool to see those flying eyes at the end. Hey, Bill Cipher uses those!

I want to see what develops. It probably needs to move faster. It helps the animation is great. Controlling flying creatures is a great ability. You could use some more development.

[Jumpcut! Episode 1 - Off Script]

Wow, that was unexpected. I seriously thought this was going to be like a cowboy cartoon. Instead, it was about making a movie. It was funny how they mentioned shooting. That could mean both given the cowboy setting. I think the original animation used was the best.

I love how stuff just happens here, like there's just a fire. It was weird how there seemed to be a theme song at the end. Then again, that would have ruined the opening! It's clever the more I think about it. This series seems like it's going places.

[Can I get a raise master?]

Hard to review something so short. Then again, I've reviewed pictures. Those are just single frames! I'm not familiar with "Mob Psycho 100". I didn't know whether it was something you made up. We have anime for practically everything nowadays.

This is indeed a funny bit. The animation is pretty good, but not great. I liked that little green air thing. The weird characters make things better. It was certainly unique.

[Rematch ⚔]

Wow, it was great to hear some actual dialogue! It didn't even seem like a "Pebbles Quest" cartoon. I appreciate how well the animation flows. It's just great to see so many things going on. It was weird to have the prince appear at the end. It still works out wonderfully.

I don't recall these characters. It's becoming hard to keep up with them all! It's always nice to see the Patreons dancing at the end. That title is very nice too. I don't want to have to keep up with a story.

[The Local Freak - Brick & Murder]

I thought it was going to end halfway through. The second half wasn't quite as good as the first one. Anyway, this was still freaking awesome. I've probably had dreams of going into old video stores. I didn't realize she was a vampire at first. The details are so good.

I noticed how the video store kept changing titles. That's a pretty good little detail. I really do like seeing these characters just having fun. I'm glad to be introduced to them. It kind of reminds me of "Spooky Month".

['Chaos Croak']

Frog January? That sounds like something from "Amphibia". It really works great as an infinite loop. I have no idea why anything is happening here. It's just nice to see this great animation. The sound effects add a lot too.

I just keep noticing the smaller stuff. I like the worm that goes up with everything. The colors work so well here. It's pretty chaotic. Strangely, it does so in a serene manner.

Butzbo responds:

Hey thanks for the review! I like what you pointed out on the more serene way it all happens, didn't inteded it as much but makes me think of how the audio and perhaps the timing give it a more contemplative perspective on the chaos going on.

[64 Bits - Avatar The Last Airbender Demake for SNES]

Derpixon funded this? Anyway, this was pretty amazing. While I wouldn't call it the day for Pixel Day, it's still wonderful. It summarizes the story quite well. It's great because it does ask us a what a what if scenario. What if "Avatar: The Last Airbender" came out in the 90s?

The colors were gorgeous. So funny to see Sokka in the desert. You put everything together so well. It's great to see a lot of people credited for something with no voice actors. I don't think it's quite 64 bits. Happy Pixel Day indeed!

[Pixel Day 2025: Mermaid's Call]

I have to admit that I was expecting a story. Instead, it was just not much happening at all. A thing did show up. I'm sorry to give this such a low rating. Well okay, it's not that low. The music could have been better.

That is a big part of this. I appreciate how it does have good animation. It just doesn't amount to much. There was some kind of monster at least. It might not have quite worked as an art submission. Good thing it wasn't too long.

Roskiart responds:

You know? That's fair. It was effectively a short teaser either way, but still.

[2A03 NIGHTMARES VIZUALISER]

Well, this is the lowest rated submission for Pixel Day 2025 Movies and it's not very hard to see why. I mean, the animation is very nice. I was waiting for something to happen, but it never did. At least it looked great. I'm glad there was some sense of a battle about to happen. I love those huge claws.

They showed real tension. This may have been an art submission. Anyway, it was still okay for what it was. Just show things happening. It didn't need to be that long either.

[Sewerskate]

I love this animation style. Now there's a movie section for Pixel Day! What's going on here?! This is probably our biggest one ever. I love how it's showing something as mundane as going on a skateboard. There actually is a nice relationship between these characters.

I love the environment. They look like they're flying over a river. A star must make that easy. I just saw a Kirby cartoon. It reminded me of that.
