Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Free to Play]

Well, I don't think it's as good as everyone claims, but this is still pretty freaking awesome. The best part about it is probably the animation. Dang, it looks gorgeous! It's nice to have such a good satire about male gamer games, if that's what you want to call them. The voicework was fantastic as well. People are just obsessed with hot women in games, you know.

I just appreciate all the exaggerated body movements this has. Everything is just put out of proportion. I think that's what makes a good commentary on something. I am fortunate enough to have never spent any money on something like this. I doubt I ever will.

[Green Knight]

I was pretty amused by this. While not a favorite, it still worked quite well for its humor. I knew SOMEONE was going to be dead by the end of this. I'm glad it was him. It's really interesting to see how you manage to show facial expressions through helmets. I assume that's not their actual faces.

My only complaint was that there seemed to be a bit of a problem with the audio. I think it went a bit too fast for me. I should have known that this was inspired by Monty Python. It works well for its length. It's certainly worth checking out.

[Slush Invaders Duel]

Dude, this is seriously one of the best cartoons I have ever seen in my entire life! I think the main reason it's so awesome is because of how fast paced it is. You have done something that no other stick artist has been able to do. I have never seen stick figures that had so much personality! While they did not speak, you really were able to make great and likeable personalities for them. Apart from all this, it's just a wonderfully pleasant cartoon.

Seeing the early version was like too cartoons in one! I loved how it went beyond anything you've ever seen before with how they rebel but get caught in the end. You still don't get the sense it was pointless because you see the defeated enemies. It's simply a fantastic use of camera angles. I am so glad to be introduced to someone as amazing as you. May this cartoon live on forever!

[Moolt - Armenian Parents]

When I first looked at this, I thought it said, "American Parents". I imagine they can be like this too. I don't think this is one of your best cartoons. It still manages to be decent. I think the main reason is because the animation is as good as ever. The name reminds me of Moot. Not much of a 4chan guy.

Really, most people can relate to something like this. While it was a bit off with the subtitles (you usually don't use them) it was still watchable. I hope you make more good cartoons. The voices are fine too.

[Star Trek Joke]

Wow, I was in no way expecting this at all. I thought it would just go on longer. I guess a single joke doesn't have to do that. What really made it was Future Spock appearing at the end. That pose he's in looks very dirty. I love the "Star Trek" movies.

It figures we'd have some parodies here and there. The animation is as gorgeous as ever. It really helps that it harder to portray live-action characters than animated ones in drawings. I am still glad you aren't making more of these. Great stuff.

[Snow Hare]

Wow, this is the first thing you have submitted and possibly even ever made! I can not believe how much of a fantastic job you did with your first try! This is just so gorgeously animated. I appreciate all of the hard work put into everything. It was a bit hard for me to understand the symbolism. I'm glad the hare didn't turn into a crow at the end.

It represented his acceptance. I am amazed you managed to make such a wonderful piece in memory of a friend. That's probably the first time I've seen a cartoon here like that. This is one that has true heart. This is probably the best tribute you could make to your friend. God bless you for the grace you have shown us.

Thank you! Yes this is my first, but far from my last.

[Deadly Space Action #19]

This is probably my favorite in the series. I hope this wins an award of some kind, but it might be too late. I am so glad to say that I remember most of the characters' names. It helps that you list them in the author's comments. I hope to see more of this series. The animation is really good in this, especially with the rescue scene. It's hard to explain what makes that so good.

My favorite bits were the shipping chart and how he kept falling down. Yes, variants always make something funny. You're a better voice actor than you think. I just love to see the zany adventures these characters go on. There are always jokes going on, it's hard to think of specific ones. I love this!

[Deadly Space Action #20]

I thought this was great. It's only not quite as good as the first one. I am glad to be around to at least to watch both of these. The best part is probably LeMarion dancing at the beginning. It seems like all of your cartoons are in three part story arcs. The designs are really good, especially the skull girl at the end.

No, I don't know HER name, but I know most of the others. I appreciate you keeping up the funny nature of this series. Everything is just wonderful. You really are a better animator than you think. Of course, I don't know what you really think of yourself.

[ZTV News Episode 5]

Dang, I wish I could more into this porn thing, but I really can't. I do appreciate how good this was. I think this is probably my favorite episode. Since it was the longest, I was afraid it might just go on forever. It really did have a lot going on. I'm surprised HappyHarry was listed under Credits & Info.

I'm not going to make any recommendations, especially with BennettTheSage as the writer. You really are into porn more than Cinema Snob. But I digress, this is another well animated cartoon. Yeah, I'm not into this porn stuff and would probably never favorite it. You guys know your demographic.
