Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[NECRO-NANCY 64: Spooky House]

Wow, this was one epic cartoon! I was surprised at how long it was! Anyway, it was cool to see everything look so authentic. The best part was easily the cup challenge. I was confused as to why she declined at first. I'm not used to N64 games being told from first person perspective.

Everyone thinks of "Super Mario 64" or platformers in general. This provided a pretty unique experience. Halloween in January? Here I was thinking we celebrated Christmas early! Well, late is more technical.

Happy Pixel Day indeed! I was impressed by how unique this was. I mean, we've seen everything with Madness. I've never seen it as an RPG before. I recognize that "Heavy Machine Gun" audio clip. I believe that was from "Metal Slug".

I just always think of "Final Fantasy" with RPGs. I'm glad one bite didn't zombify him. This did play out a lot like a Madness cartoon. I guess you don't need to make such a great Madness cartoon for only Madness Day! The sprite work was great too.

MP32 responds:

omg thx dude
i wanted to make the sound design realy crispy and mixed, overcensorial if you want

and the rpg thing was mainly inspired by mario rpg, that tbh, its kinda of a parody to most jrpg's

[Tekken 8 - Reina's Rampage]

I guess my only complaint was that it needed more action at the end. This was still awesome. It has some of the most action I've ever seen from you! I'm not that familiar with the "Tekken" series. I'm glad to see this great animation. The opening bits might be the best with these amazing fights.

It's great to see a straight up action cartoon from you. I know to never underestimate bears. I'm so glad it didn't get too vulgar or anything. Even in action, you have relatively clean stuff. Congratulations on this amazing score!

[Miku Finds A Snail]

Short, but kinda cute. Maybe the shortest to ever win Daily Feature. This is pretty good for what it is. I don't know what Miku has to do with snails, but whatever.

KOLANI responds:

Yeah I'm ngl I'm also surprised it won a daily, especially since I released it right on Pixel Day. I'm glad it got in tho!!

[Virtua Fighter 2: Punching Technique]

This was great as a quick joke, as always. The scores for these just keep getting higher! I guess he had met his match. This seems to make sense to me. The animation was pretty good. I couldn't tell if this was a sequel or a reference to the first game.

I'm going to say the latter. It does make you think about blocking. I mean, you can still get a hit in if you punch someone like that. It's still aiming. I rarely use that in fighting games.

SuperJeffoMan responds:

Spam that punch homie! VF has got those ring outs; nudge those blockers out. Lol nah this strategy wouldn't work a lot of the time, but it's funny when it did work.

Yeah you got it right, it's referencing the second game (background and music), but the joke could be interchangeable with the first. Anyways, thanks for the review :)

[Dotty's animation reel 2023]

Wow, that was so nicely cartoonish! She looked just like Mickey Mouse! I guess we're just thinking about him since "Steamboat Willie" came into public domain. Don't remind me of Doug Walker's show with "Demo Reel". I thought this would have different characters. My grandfather used to call my grandmother "Dotty".

Her real name was Dorothy. It's just so wonderfully cartoonish. I'm glad it was all released at once. These would have been too short on their own. They work best as a compilation.

[Get That Cheddar]

This was beautifully done. I didn't think it was great, just good. It reminded me of "Ratatouille". Well, that movie's so popular, it's probably just that I compare any story about mice and food to that film. I really like that image of him touching the cheese. What a holy image.

He looks so funny with his big eyes. Wait, this says Weekly 3rd Place. According to the e-mail I got, this is the Weekly User's Choice! Tell someone about this! Even if I personally don't love it, other people do!

[Cats on the roof at 2 AM be like (Cats fight animation)]

It was great to see a cat cartoon! I mean, we see cat videos everywhere on YouTube, but not so much here. You'd think they'd be more common. I loved seeing these cats duke it out! I had no idea you'd do so much in under a minute! The ending was a bit weird, though.

It's still great for any cat lover! This is like Longcat vs. Tacgnol, only they're not long. Well, black and white are easy contrasts. I bet that's a hot tin roof! See the reference I made?

[Victory Dance ✌🕺]

I have to admit that this was one of your lesser entries. It was just him punching a pink guy and him dancing. That was well, it. The animation was still as good as ever. The title's still good, though. The hand looks like a waffle from a distance.

That dancing guy looks like Donald Trump. Well, I guess I just see Donald Trump everywhere. Him getting in the polls is getting me down. Forget that, this seemed to take place in space. Well, he did look like an alien.

[bird]

I have to admit that I found this to be pretty bad. You look like the ninja from "Ask A Ninja"! Anyway, this was just a snake getting electrocuted. It wasn't much else. I guess it is funny to see a snake in the air like that. Oh yeah "Snakes On A Plane".

That's probably how the snake got up there! It didn't even focus on the bird that much. The title was misleading! You have gone much better stuff that's wonderfully detailed. Maybe you could come up with a better title.
