Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[XIN Session 15]

I admit that this started off well, but it just kept getting dumber and dumber. What's with all the supernatural stuff? Suddenly, these people can control fire and heal themselves! It was nice to see the parts where they explain where corporal punishment came from. A lot of it is just too unbalanced. I appreciate the music, I suppose.

It was just too long. You tried to put in too many weird things. Woah, the website was founded around July 4th! I never knew the exact date. I am sorry, but this just wasn't for me.

[Steve The Tree]

I was able to understand it after awhile. It's still pretty confusing. The dial switches the seasons, okay? I just thought this was a bit too long. It didn't really do anywhere that much. I do appreciate the animation.

The way the characters move around is pretty nice. I rarely see stuff featuring talking trees. He looked more like a mushroom at first. The voices seem appropriate. It is kind of boring.

[Birdthingy]

That was good, but not great. I think my main complaint was that it was a bit too short. You could have done more with this. It still works out quite well. I have never heard of this idea before. I don't even know why someone would hunt mechanical birds

For the sport of it? I mean, you can't eat them. Everything was really nice and bright in this. The music was great too. It was a nice short little cartoon.

[Naruto - Go !!!]

Looking back, I think this may have been one of the first Naruto related things I ever saw. Nah, they're older than that. Anyway, the sprite work is really nice. It's great to hear this theme song again. I admit that it's making me miss the series. I'm so glad it ended on such a high note!

It's simply hard to go wrong with this style. I like all the little things going on. Naruto's Sexy Jutsu was pretty funny. In that same scene, a hot Tsunade is in the background! It's quite elaborate.

[Fragile Machine: Oread]

Dang it, this is just so beautiful! I admit that it sometimes goes in the Uncanny Valley, but it's still great! I just love how everything comes together. I wish it was longer! Well, the second part is even better. You really do know how to do great narration.

The characters sincerely come to life here. It's nice to have everything move so fast. At the same time, it's still pretty soft. It's just such a nice cartoon. The music is wonderful as well.

[I've Shit Myself]

I admit this wasn't one of your best works. I think you've already done stuff on shit before. Then again, it was kind of different with the baby. Maybe I SHOULD never have kids. It was at least nice to hear that song. I'm glad it wasn't too long.

Dang, I accidently rhymed. It was just nothing that unique. You draw babies well, though. The animation probably could have been better. I just don't think it's that good.

[Wall Lunch]

I feel bad for not liking this! I'm sorry, but I know everyone else loves it! I just thought it didn't have much to it. I guess it was meant to be a Dr. Seuss parody. It just didn't seem like it went far enough with anything. The voice wasn't bad.

The music was fine. It just didn't seem to have any point. I was searching for some deeper meaning. It did kind of work as a loop. Don't worry, I won't eat my lunch like this.

[Surface]

Wow, that was probably the most thought provoking thing you've ever done. I was fairly certain that it was just going to be a trailer at first. I am glad there was more. The mood is wonderfully set. The music is great. It's nice to have such surrealism.

At the same time, it isn't too strange. You really are wondering what will happen next. It maybe moves a bit slow at times. It's still lots of fun. It can be hard for us to determine what's real or not.

[War of the Worlds Pt2]

I was kind of bored by this. There wasn't much going on. It just seemed like the same stuff from last time. The animation was still fairly good. I do like the technique with the black and white stuff. It's still pretty elaborate.

I just found it to be too short. I like the "Pt2" title. The music is fairly nice. It's nothing to write home about. You can certainly make better things.

Gerkinman responds:

This series certainly had a lot of balance issues when it came to pacing and episode lengths, so the critique is more than fair.
