Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[YOU are a PIRATE!]

Well, it's in the Top 50 now. I hope you don't delete it, as it is a very good cartoon at least IMHO. Trust me, I have seen a lot more crappier things submitted that have gotten on the Top 50. I appreciate you showing they lyrics to the song. I sincerely did not know all of them until now. That "Captain Planet" is a pretty cool song too.

I'm not really a fan, I just think that's cool music. Good thing you managed to win an award of some kind. I like to make jokes about pirates in that sense as well. I was afraid it was going to be an infinite loop at first. It actually doesn't even show the whole song.

[We live in the sea]

I was very impressed by this. It's the first cartoon you've made all year that didn't involve bodily fluids of some kind. Well, there was this squid that bursted out ink at the end. Anyway, it's just nice to have a really pleasant cartoon like this. All of the animals look like they're having so much fun. I thought the submarine might come and kill everything, but I was gladly wrong!

I don't think I have seen the original "Nature" song. I didn't need to in order to truly enjoy this. I live near the beach, so this appeals to me. It's nice to have such an upbeat cartoon. I hope to see more positive cartoons like this from you.

:) Oh yes - thing is, I have to pander to my audience for the most part. But occasionally I like to reset the filth-ometer.

Ah go and see the Nature Song, it's equally as cute I think.

[The Monster is Me]

I thought this was a very well made cartoon. It mostly works because of how great the music is. I can understand why entries in this series do not use dialogue. You truly don't need it. I think the main reason it appeals to me is because of the use of piano. I am now looking at a drawing I drew with piano keys to represent my old talent for them.

Anyway, the colors are absolutely gorgeous in this. I love how you don't just pick one theme for them. It's interesting to understand the psychological tests of this. You get the sense of the inner conflict in this person. It's just nicely done.

[The Adventurer]

I thought this was a really cool animation. I admit that some of it wasn't that unique, but it's still nice to look at. It's interesting to see the themes of yet another one of these contests. Are they only made once a year? It certainly seems a lot more frequent than that. The animation just moved so smoothly in this.

I just think it's cute how this guy has this animal friends with him. I was just watching "Adventure Time" and this made me think of it. The music is also quite nice. Didn't have dialogue, but it didn't need it. It might be too generic a title.

[Megatron Orders a Soda]

I thought this was okay. The best part about it is probably how good the voices are. It seems to be a lot like the original characters from the cartoons! It just seemed a bit too predictable. I mean, I knew the kid was going to get blown up at the end. I'm guessing he was Sam or Spike, I don't know, I haven't watched much of the original cartoon.

Yeah, it's easy to make jokes about Starscream annoying Megatron. It's mostly just standard stuff here. I don't know that would be enough soda to fill those guys up. Not that it really mattered anyway. I could tell this wasn't going to be too long.

[Wonders: Stardate]

I really liked this episode, but I do think it was missing something. I guess it's mostly how there wasn't a lot going on here. In the other ones, you got to see the ship and the action it took on. That being said, it's still an awesome cartoon. LegendaryFrog needs to draw good looking women more often. I especially freaking love Lindsay's voice.

It's this stereotypical pretty girl airhead one. Everything just comes off as so strong here. I should have known things wouldn't go perfectly in the end. The animation was as gorgeous as ever. I am glad to be part of this website.

[Please Send Tell: 0.1]

A teaser? This seemed a lot more like an entire episode. This is often the length of a lot of episode like things on this website. I couldn't understand what the preview image of the girl meant. I was hoping to see something like that. I didn't understand how this was supposed to be that funny.

People are gay because of Chick-fil-a? It just didn't come across as clever. There's a scene at the end where the characters just stand around and do nothing. I will say that the animation was good. The main problems are that the pacing is off and it is not funny.

[Portal Turret AMV]

Okay (I've been starting most of my reviews like that, huh?), this was a weird experiment for you. It was weird to even understand that this was from you. It doesn't even seem like a Madness flash. I do think it's nice that you really tried something different this time. I think that for the most part, it worked. My favorite part was when the dark penguin got sliced up.

Rainbow blood is awesome! You really have no true idea what's going on here. It does sound like you would be familiar with this kind of music. I was expecting more bullets instead of an ax. It's very well animated too.

[Shadow Hunter Trailer]

Well, normally you can't tell much from a trailer, but I can tell this will be awesome! I do hope it becomes an actual cartoon. Honestly, you have gotten such good response, I think most people would be satisfied if you never did make a real one. There seem to be a lot of different animation styles here. It reminds me of "Sin City". The name even has a nice ring to it.

It's easy to tell if something is going to be popular. I really have no idea what the story in this is. You certainly have a series that has a lot to lift up to. Some of it's a tad cliched, but overall very well done. It might even have a Batmanish ring to it.
