Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Santa Crows' Gift]

Woah, this was a great cartoon. The best thing about it was how it was so unpredictable. The most haunting part was when the cat was resurrected. Well, I guess it never really died per se. It looked like some skinned animal. The kid seemed to like it after awhile!

I admit that it's weird to see this after Christmas. Oh, what the heck? It's just a wonderfully unique idea. I love the dark tone. It's weird how this won awards on two different days?

[Mystery Gift]

Wow, I had no idea what was going on in this movie. It was just so insane it was hard to really understand it at all! At first, I thought it would just be a brief music video. It was anything but! You showed off so much wonder in this! I am quite glad that you put all this effort into it.

The animation is just gorgeous. Was it sending some message about consumerism? Maybe how technology dominates society? Eh, I'm probably looking too much into this. It's just great to look at.

[Weed - Harmless? P2]

I'm sorry to say that I did not understand this. Yeah, maybe I do have to be stoned for it. I have just seen much better parodies of drug commercials. It wasn't quite relevant to the first one either. I like how you show the explosion. That actually was kind of clever.

I don't think I've seen that commercial before. It sounds too dumb to really show anymore. The animation wasn't good at all. Nobody really moved fluidly. Well, enough people liked it to give it a Daily 3rd place.

[Penny For A Thought]

When I first came upon this, I thought it would be about actual pennies. Penny for your thoughts is a common thing my mom said. I'm glad that the images are so cool. I liked how you mentioned "South Park" in something that was made in the style of it. I have never heard this song before.

It's hard to catch all these references. It's great to see all this going on. It makes no sense, but that's never stopped something from being good before. I'm surprised that this isn't more popular. It really is quite unique.

[Hot Buzz: Bee Police [NATA]]

This was a very entertaining cartoon. I will admit that some of it seemed forced. It was great to see how many bee puns you could put in. It was interesting to show the bee almost dying. A lot of people forget they die when they sting. Well, I guess they didn't technically sting anyone, just removed the stinger.

The animation is quite good. This was really random for the theme. I guess there's so many things you can do with surviving. At least they killed the villain. The voices were quite nice.

[How I Survived]

Alright, THIS was the best in the NATA series. I guess the animation could be a little better. It still doesn't matter, because this told a wonderful story. You really show such strong emotions. The voicework is great too. You just have no idea what's going to happen next. I guess he did kill those people in real life.

Could he really turn into a monster too? Well, it was all a dream. This came off as so real to me. I imagine this is a nightmare someone in this situation would have. Again, it's quite ambigious.

I'm glad someone found this to be so great :3 I worked really hard on getting the story right so I'm glad it payed off.

[Revolution]

This is probably the best I have seen so far. It's mostly because it's such an ambitious cartoon. I am so glad there's a lot going on in this. I want there to be stuff like giant robots! It shows great grace. I guess I also love her arm.

The music tells so much. Everything was left pretty open handed. There was no dialogue! It's great that we can make a story ourselves. I think this deserves to be the highest rated in the series.

[Only the Happy Thoughts]

It was great to see a new NATA thing. I will admit that this seemed a bit too long. It was still very creative. I'm glad that you created something we can all associate with. Well, just those who take meds. Then again, that probably is most of us.

These guys looked like deformed Muppets. I'm not sure what the intention was. The bits with the spider was quite good. The voices seem quite realistic. It's sort of experimental.

[NWAR: Con Games]

I'm so glad that you made this. It's great to see this story continue. I admit that there hasn't been much in previous episodes. I'm glad that this has continuity. It's amazing how many board game puns you can put in. On top of that, the story's quite good.

The animation is really nice too. I just noticed that it's always the same voice. I really don't care. It just fits the tone so perfectly. Even the title's nice. This is just a satisfying cartoon.

[[Early Work] Wet Willy]

I liked this, but probably only because of the music. In the old days, this was the closest we had to music videos. It reminds me of myself. The animation itself is alright. You showed some cool stuff with the Earth spinning around. I wish you'd show the song at the end, though.

I'm pretty sure that would be the ABC song. Well, one of them at least. I guess I can associate with it at least. Well, most of us were like that, right? The guy wasn't animated that well, though.
