Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

['Dimensional Flakes']

I can see why this is the highest ranked submission for this round. Damn, are there a lot of these. At first, I didn't understand how this fit with the theme of finding a way back home. I had no idea he was going to go to that weird dimension. I love how he continues to eat the cereal. Hey, nothing bad happened to him after that!

I think the animation is wonderful is this. The transition effects are great. I really have no idea what's going to happen next. The music and sounds were great too. It was a pretty unique take on this premise.

Butzbo responds:

It took me a while to find a way to finish it; at the end I thought the most ironic way was to have the character continue with his breakfast after all, heheh.
Thanks a lot for the review!

[Breakfast with Mancubus]

I was amazed that something this short has so high a rating. While I personally don't think it's one of the best, it's still a great cartoon. The best part is probably the end. While not a "Doom" fan, I still recognize the characters. Well, I guess that guy's just a generic demon. Who's trying to enjoy his coffee.

Wait, he is a demon named Mancubus. I appreciate how good the animation is. You really don't know where this is headed for next. Everything move quite fluidly. I wonder why they're living together.

[Trash Talk]

Okay, that was impossible. We saw him the green stuff and we know you're not supposed to. He didn't see Herman take it, so he couldn't have been purposely faking it. I still have to appreciate how good the animation is in this. While not as good as the pencilmation, still quite watchable. The voices are nice too.

I guess it is overall pretty funny. I was not expecting that at the end. I wasn't expecting it, because it didn't seem possible. Well, I guess it's just a cartoon. The title's kind of funny in a cheesy way.

[Glarfieldiator]

This was truly a great cartoon. I think the best part is that it makes fun of Garfield. Seriously, does anyone take that comic as something funny anymore? I thought the voices were spot on. It seems just like the unfunny thing that would be in a Garfield comic. Dang, I miss "Peanuts".

It was worth the wait to see Odie at the end. I haven't seen the movie, so I'm not that familiar with it. I still know funny things when I see them. Even the title fits. It's funny to see Garfield walking around so stupidly like that.

[Buncha Guys - Episode 2]

I ended up enjoying this cartoon. I think it could have been a bit funnier, but it was at least decent. The best thing about was probably the animation. RWappin and DonkeysBazooka are two of my favorite animators. I appreciate all the hard work put into that. I was wondering what would happen in this.

Omahdon is really becoming the voice actor nowadays. I like how fluidly everything moved. I thought the guy had a beard at first and not a trunk. It was fun to see him eat his cheese treats with it. I like the "buncha" name.

WeirdoGoon responds:

Thanks! Rwappin and I both worked on the animation part. I did the keyframes, the videogame scene, and some other parts and he did the bulk of the in betweens and lip sync; He really does a great job! There were also lots of specialfx n' stuff added afterwards using After Effects etc...

[David Moore Speed BG 1]

Honestly, I wasn't that impressed by this. It looks like there are some people who like it a lot. That's fine for them, I suppose. I don't even think the final product is that good looking. It was also too short. I know time lapses by their very nature aren't supposed to be long, but it could have been better.

It's nice that you appreciate your own work. This was just not enough for a submission. The music wasn't bad. This wasn't that special. The colors could have more shading, too.

ToonCastleTV responds:

Heh, yea that may have to do with the video quality and the fact that this isnt even really a speedun, just a fun project i decided to try.

[DeadlySpaceAction Mini#10]

I think this may be the longest one of these shorts. I like the idea of only Ashley being able to kill LeMarion. Yeah, that happens. It does kind of make me wonder why she didn't just go after LeMarion when she was on the ship. Yeah, it was pointed out she didn't think this through. It really need have somewhat of a story.

I appreciate the voice work and animation. I also love the joke where she shows her the contract. The way her eyes just change in that scene is so freaking well done. I'm glad to have come by this. You just consistently make funny stuff.

[My Mario Parody]

I actually did like this. It seemed like you were spoofing spoofiness or you were just making something intentionally bad. Either way, it worked pretty well. I do kind of wish it was a bit longer. I guess it would make more sense for Mario to fix the pipes. I don't know that much about Spyro.

I just love how you present yourself in this. It shows how silly you're willing to depict yourself as. The voice was quite funny too. I guess mushrooms do go well with spaghetti. It was pretty stylistic on how bad it was.

[Kid Across The Street]

Well, I certainly was a kid who didn't swear. That was probably the thing here I could associate with. Seriously, kids really did swear when they were young, remember? I guess the animation could be better, but it's still wonderful. We at least know what it's like to grow up around odd people. A pity I had problems making friends.

Seriously, this isn't about me, it's about you, I think. It's easy to at least imagine people like that. I didn't collect pokemon cards, though. I think there's even fewer fans of that then there are fans of the anime nowadays. The voice work was great too

[Belial Chapter 3: Ars Arc]

I am sorry, but I did not like this. I think you should probably just stick to games. Well, this is a trailer, but it still isn't a game. I couldn't quite understand the point of it. It seemed like it was just a brief demo. It didn't show any particularly interesting parts or anything.

I think I vaguely recollect the other games in the series. You should have shown the player doing cool things. He just stayed in the same place the whole time. At least you gave us some backstory. I hope the game will be better.

keybol responds:

thank you for your comment, definitely this was just a demo of the controls and the setting. We will definitely have more for demo soon.
