Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Versus.059]

I'm glad to finally be able to review one of these. I love the fact that you're posting them on this website. They may not be very popular, but are still good in their own rights. I haven't seen many of the NOES films, so I don't know how accurate this is. It's a very well done cartoon. I was thinking that if you were going to be involved in something gay, might as well have the guy be attractive!

Wait, what did I just say? It's nice to see how well the artwork moves. I imagine Freddy goes into some pervy dreams every now and then. He should be able to use his glove in real life, I think. Again, not all that familiar with the mythology.

[Scribblenauts General]

This was really neat, probably because it uses Scribblenauts. I have never played the game, but know a lot about it. It's great to see your creativity being put to the test. I am not just referring to the game, but this cartoon. The animation is very well done. I can tell you did the "Earthbound" part on NinDoh!

Or was that Kirbopher? You just have so little idea as to what's going to happen next. I appreciate the good animation used everywhere. He should have been a blue owl. Maxwell reminds me of someone from a chicken cartoon.

ScottFalco responds:

No that was kirbopher, but thanks! I had a lot of fun with this script, some of my best writing in my opinion cause it was jut kind of quick humor instead of "lawl you died dark souls" or trying hard to be one of the other famous animators out there. I felt like this was like "my style"

[Voyeur School]

I, for one, thought this was great! I guess it helps that I've been reading a lot of scary stories lately and this just fits the mood so well. I could tell that there was meant to be some big purpose thrown in at the end. While I still don't understand most of it, that didn't stop me from loving it. While it wasn't as colorful as some of your other stuff, it was still very well animated. I especially love how everybody moves in this.

You just have so little idea what is going to happen next. I'm not the kind of person really creeped out by these kinds of things, but they're still well done. It's just very imaginative. It even has a nice sinister title to it. I imagine the main characters were supposed to be rabbits or something.

[Dan The Man Stage 4]

At first, I thought this was a part in a series. At the end, I couldn't help but think it wasn't, as it seemed to be part of the joke. Turns out my first assumption was right. I was quite impressed at how unique this was. I thought it was going to end in a really dirty way, but it didn't! I guess I appreciate you being bold like that.

The other entries in the series do look a little more appealing. I liked how fast paced everything was. It was very funny to see these guys figure out how to have sex. Apparently, he did get it in the end. It's strange, but wonderfully done.

[GARFIELD FALSH COLLAB 2!!]

Wow, I just could not stop smiling at this. My favorite part was easily the first one, with how Garfield was dying of mercury poisioning. It's great to see such a stupid character humilitaed like this. I was amazed at the sheer number of styles used in this. Everything was just drawn so fantastically. It makes me realize how much I've outgrown that stupid comic.

Yeah, I don't associate with it at all anymore. On the Internet, who does? I love how the animation styles are so distinct. You have no idea what's going to happen next and it will be done in the most inane ways. I even loved the credits with all the drawings. The title is funny too!

[Holiday]

I thought this was going to be a joke thing at first. I noticed that the main character seemed to be yelling at someone. I thought the joke was that he was yelling at whoever was playing the music. It actually turned out to be something far more sophisicated than that. In that sense, I still thought it was a bit too vague. Of course, it's nice to let the audience to decide for themselves what's going on.

Someone here must be British. What kind of holiday do you have where you go to work? I think the main character looked like a Sesame Street muppet. It's just the thing with the nose. While not that good in my opinion, this is still worth checking out.

[Lazy Writing 8.5]

I think the main reason this works is because it reveals he's a rapist at the end. I wouldn't be surprised if he was entirely innocent. What kind of person would be raped by a blind guy? I appreciate the animation as always. While it wasn't that well detailed, it's still great to see the movements. The voices are nice too.

I like these Lazy Writings more than Yotam and Fantastia because there is more variety. I just love most of your stuff, dude. I liked how the blind guy couldn't find his way around the courtroom. I have no clue how that would even work in real life, but it's funny. It's short, but nice.

[Flower Girl]

Okay...I have no idea what's going on here. I was expecting something to be destroyed somewhere along the way. Dang, I'm morbid. I was pretty confused at how short it was. I still have to give you credit for having great animation. I just wished that it was used for something better.

You could have also put color on this. I know you're not known for flashes that make sense, but they need to be more elaborate. This seems more like something that would be part of a collab. I imagine I view most short submissions like that. It's easy to tell with the timer.

[Mechanical Woodpecker]

I'm surprised that this does not have a higher rating. I think its biggest strength is probably how strong the animation is. You really get the sense that you're off in this strange, scary world. I don't know if there was any deeper meaning, but it's a good submission all the same. My only complaint is that it should have been longer. It lived up to its name pretty well.

I especially think the way we tunnel through everything is cool. It gives you a good sense of being right up there in the action. It doesn't make sense, but none of your cartoons do. It's good to see you making more things. The music is of course fantastic.
