Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Adventures of the Ani-Mation]

Yeah, too short to really like. I did like how it was an imitation of "Animator Vs. Animation". Wait, I didn't understand the Roadrunner parody at first. I mean, I didn't get that vibe from it at all. It's weird how this jam has a generic picture as a thumbnail. Well, this at least made it.

It's still nice how you had the VHS filter. I'll never let go of "A Charlie Brown Christmas"! Saturday morning cartoons are ones we'll always remember. This just didn't deliver the spirit well. It could have been more cartoonish.

[Salad Fingers the Macabre Boy Show]

That's odd. According to the current score, this is lower than "Pico And The Masters Of The Universe", but not in the Saturday Morning section. Whatever, this is great. It helps that I love "Courage The Cowardly Dog". I understood the "Salad Fingers" parts too. The animation was great too.

I was sad that CTCD never got as popular as something like "The Powerpuff Girls". I mean, it still has the highest rating of any of those early Cartoon Network shows. Why wasn't it the most popular?! While minimalistic, still very entertaining. Did Courage air on Saturday mornings?

[Pico & The Masters of Newgrounds]

Very funny! I'm glad to see this new jam. I'm reminded of other submissions that have a VHS-like quality. I especially loved seeing the roles being filled up well. Oh, I get the Burnt Face Man joke. He's called gay in his own cartoons.

That joke seemed to be more for Pico as He-Man. I personally am annoyed by constant jokes about characters being gay. Maybe it would have been nice to see the fight. It still delivers its jokes personally. I never cared about He-Man but acknowledge that it's fairly popular.

JCaluger responds:

Thank you. I really appreciate this critique.

[Newgrounds Animation Jam Bumper]

Oh, this was for another jam. As far as bumps go, this was great! It's always nice to see these characters together. This jam doesn't have its own section. It probably will eventually. The animation was of course amazing.

You can show a lot in something so short. A music video? It's really too short for one. Well, I have heard of shorter music videos. No, I am not kidding.

[Transforming Tank]

What is it with everything being short on this website nowadays? Still, this was one of the better of them. It's mostly because you create a great setup. That transforming tank is awesome! I just wish there was more of it. This website's getting higher rated cartoons than ever!

Tankmen can be celebrated at any time. Well, really anything can be celebrated here any time. Except you know, actual holidays. It seems like it's been awhile since I've seen a cartoon from you, MindChamber. You've been here a very long time.

MindChamber responds:

there's a lot of bumpers being uploaded for the collab, but I promise once I get my life in order more lengthy cartoons will be worked on

[Funkin Forward Bumpers]

I admitted to being confused by this at first. I thought it was going to be like a collab. Instead, it was just two short things. I mean, they're fine for what they are. There's just so little going on. It would have worked better as a preloader.

Well, this has an absurdly high score, so why am I to judge? I have grown fond of this series. Pretty much everyone has anyway. Funkin always sound funny. You know, with how it sounds like another f-word.

[Rotten Apples]

Wow, that was quite odd. I mean, I thought it was a game at first. Okay, that was dumb because it outright says it's a cartoon. My favorite part was probably the animation. This seemed like something out of "Homestuck"! Yeah, I've read that webcomic.

It was pretty hard to follow. Then again, it is experimental. It certainly succeeded at that. I recognize some of your other cartoons. You seem to have a pretty distinct style.

[Toys: The Story]

Wait, so does that mean Buzz really was on another planet after all? Woody really is an alien! He wasn't delusional after all! I was expecting him to just do the same thing to the next Buzz. Well, that might have been redundant. Even the title was cool!

The animation made it. "Toy Story" is such a great movie it deserves to be referenced more. It was short, but hilarious. Most of your cartoons are this. They are pretty unique.

[Doctors Visit]

The best part was talking about how he would in an Internet cartoon. Don't worry. I doubt he'll ever see this. Then again, you could just show it to him for kicks, hee hee. Anyway, I've never had something like this happen to me before. Kevin MacLeod is omnipotent! I don't go to the doctor much either.

I probably should. I think it's supposed to be colon cancer. Then again, anal cancer is a real thing. It's spelled "melanoma". Yeah, I didn't know how it was spelled either.
