Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cocket the Fish]

You mean like the Forest Gump character? This was really nice and cartoonish. I didn't love it, though. The best part was probably the diarrhea joke. I'm glad you didn't show the actual fluids with that. It was great fun to just look at this animation.

Why were there two intros? It seemed kind of pointless. The voice work was fairly good. This guy seems a lot like a 90s video game character. There were a lot of talking animal ones back then.

Yes, like the Forest Gump character! Thanks for your feedback. It's been years since I first published Cocket the Fish. I'm glad he seemed like a 90's video game character. I like making characters in that style. Check out my trailer for Hellevator, an iOS game I just released that has more of that 90's video game feel! Cheers!

[-=Stick Wars Episode I=-]

This was good, but I didn't find it great. I thought it was a little too long. Why was this called Episode I? This obviously wasn't a parody of the Phantom Menace. It was a little slow moving. Maybe you did that as a way of mocking the actual movie? Jar-Jar Binks hasn't looked worse.

I thought the voices were quite well done. I couldn't tell when a guy named Kevin replaced her. Stick figures don't have much for gender anyway. I loved the music at the end. I guess you never got around to a Spider-Man parody.

[Ten Facts]

This seems like a great contest! I am glad to have come by something so good here. I really am a person interested with trivia. I appreciate how good the animation is. It was of course interesting to learn about those things. I knew some of them already.

I liked how they were relevant to what was going on. Well, it didn't lead to much of a punchline. Okay, the final one was pretty good. The voices were pretty good. I'm glad to get started with something so nice in this.

[The Soy]

Wow, everything in this just came out of left field. I have no idea what's really going on at first. The animation was just fantastic. I would think Ukinojoe would be the one who did the animation. I guess I'm just not familiar with your work. I loved the "Dinosaurs" theme at the end.

Or is the "Dinosaurs" theme older than I think? I had no idea Sasha Obama was lactose intolerant. Or did you make that up? Either way, it's actually good political satire. I wonder how expensive weed will be.

[Støv - «Rives»]

I am surprised that this doesn't have a higher rating! I love it just because of how surreal it is. I guess some people will be turned off by how scary it is. It was weird to use this as a music video. I'm thinking it would have worked better if it was just a random video. Was it trying to be serious?

There was no Comedy tag with this. Maybe some people were turned off by the foreign language. Hey, that never stopped "There She Is!" from being immensely popular. It did get pretty ugly at times. Of course, that seemed to be the point.

[The date]

Wow, this is certainly a very strange cartoon. I had no idea what was happening at the end at all. It did seem like it would be something scary. How was this a comedy? This was scary! Anyway, the animation is absolutely amazing.

Even if it was disturbing, it was certainly great! These were all wonderful colors to just look at. I guess there was some foreshadowing in this. Who knew dates could be this bad? Now, if it had been a MAN who did that, you'd have all sorts of complaints, lol.

[claymation- Monarchy]

I guess this again, wasn't bad. It just seems to have no point. Well, I'm sure it had some significance to you. If you genuinely enjoyed working on this, good. You just really shouldn't have everything be a loop. That's generally frowned upon on this website.

The animation isn't bad. You're still suffering from low resolution. You can just put the cartoon in a smaller size. I think that isn't very hard to do. It's too random.

[the SLAP!]

I believe you are getting better. I still didn't quite care for this. It was just a clay man slapping another one. I thought maybe it was a buildup to some punchline, but it never came. Then again, it wasn't labeled as "Comedy". I guess this works as a test.

Most people don't really care for tests on this website. The effects were actually pretty good. It was just too short. The sounds aren't bad either. You just need to have more of a story.

[claymation -Really Real]

Sorry, but I could not get into this. It seemed like the image resolution was pretty low. These guys kind of looked like klansmen. Well, the one on the right with his pointy head. The voices weren't bad. This just had no purpose. I guess it was a little unpredictable.

It's easy to tell that this is your first try. It's too short. I'm sure you got better as time went on. The voices were kind of scary. Was it supposed to be philosophical?
