Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Game of The Year Edition]

I thought this was really cool, because everything was so vibrant in this! I just loved seeing so many great colors and stuff all moving around. It just seemed like there was so much movement and stuff going on. I can't believe Egoraptor didn't work on this! It's great to see such good satire, even though I do not buy video games, so I don't really understand a lot of the jokes that are being used.

I love how everything is so spot-on. The funniest bit was probably when the Japanese creator of the game appeared and acted racist towards Americans. Everything just sticks out so wonderfully everywhere and I love it! I can see why this has such a high score. This is probably going to be the next #1 ranked submission!

[Grow Your Balls!]

Woah, that was great to watch, it was just very deranged. Of course, I've heard it's some Japanese legend that raccoons have giant scrotums or something. If I saw something like that, I would simply kill myself before that monstrosity did ANYTHING to me. It was great to see something of such high quality. It reminds me of the stuff people put out for film festivals. You might want to enter this, if no one is grossed out by it.

I love the dinosaur monster depicted here. It's cool how you can clearly see all of the parts that make up its body with the green jello or whatever it is around you. The animation is beautiful, even though the content is dead on disturbing. Everything is just so nicely detailed. I appreciate the colors, too.

[Stainville Episode 2]

Wow, this is one of the most bizarre submissions I've seen in awhile! Of course, it's also probably the best one I've seen all day! I was confused as to whether or not this would just be a music video or something. I guess I'm pretty glad it wasn't, because it turned out to be something truly great! My only criticism is that it does kind of drag on in the beginning. It takes awhile to really get the action going.

I just love how everything is so random in this and you have no clue whatsoever what's going to happen next. First, there's a guy who's turning into an egg and other guys who get shot and stabbed and stuff. I guess I should have seen the first one to understand this better. Given how insane it is, I doubt it could help much. Definitley worth checking out!

[Psychadelic Sludge Tunnel]

You simply will not stop making awesome cartoons like this. What's really cool is how you're able to steadily keep up the movements of these guys. I love how each and every one has a different kind of movement. The blue skeleton is the only figure who stays in the same place, I think. The blue dog (or wolf, whatever that thing is) seems to go backwards. The red snake goes forward as does the red piranha or whatever that thing is.

It could have probably had more than just the same thing over and over, but it's still a well done thing. You could have had more colors to make it more psychadelic. The music was pretty good too. It kind of reminds me of the stuff done by Weebl, only better animated. I'm not belittling Weebl, just saying your artwork is better than his.

TheBoogley responds:

after making this I'm considering making some sort of series of these with different shots and connecting them together into a massive psychadelic freakout. Kind of like Vince Collins Bincentennial animation (called "200") from the 70's.

[Dr Whooves and Assistant]

I don't think I had heard any of the audio stuff regarding Doctor Whooves and Derpy, but this is just great to watch! Everything is just drawn wonderfully, exactly like it would be in the show. I honestly think that if a real Doctor Who/MLP crossover took place, it would become like this. Everything about this is so freaking adorable. You wouldn't expect this from a guy who had previously worked on a "Cupcakes" remake! The voices are perfect and nearly spot on.

The funniest part was probably when he was trying to pick up the pen. It's funny, because the person behind MLPFIM also worked on "The Powerpuff Girls". That also featured characters that didn't have fingers. It's weird how he's called Doctor Whooves in the title, when his name is actually the doctor. Then again, the show does the same thing. This is stuff that's so awesome it deserves to be here!

[Sergio and Bear 3]

I liked this one a lot mostly because of how unpredictable it is. I actually was not expecting Bear to stand up for himself. It was pretty satsifying to see him do that after he was being treated so poorly by the guy. The cartoon itself seemed to take a different turn when it got out of the bank. I honestly thought that might just be the end of the cartoon right there! The voices are nicely done, and it's always great to have people like Egoraptor.

TomaMoto was in this, but he actually didn't do any voice acting! I like how each of the characters seems to have a different design. It's funny to see a bear with yellow fur like that. I don't think I've seen the other entries, but I have seen so many I would have forgotten anyway. Congradulations on your high score!

[Spider Powers 8]

Wow, this is another cartoon that works well because of how utterly nutty it is. The funny thing is how there's a lot of things going on, but there's still a story. When I saw the original cartoons, it just seemed like a one shot thing. I was pleasantly surprised to find a lot more character development in this. It seems that, while the series itself is silly, it doesn't use gags that often. Most of the jokes appear relevant to the story.

The voice acting is also nicely done. I love how the voices seem so calm at times, especially with the characters who are the most functional. The spider powered guy should just give one of his arms to the other guy. Even better, make them both have the same number of arms! Not that I know anything about amputation.

[Lazy Writing 5]

If, by "lost it", you mean gone insane, that is what happened. What I didn't like about this was that the first segment didn't seem that good. You did, however, really make up for it for the next cartoon. It was unbelievable because I had absolutely had idea what was going to happen next. I was thinking it was going to be some kind on stage or something. Even when he came out, I had no idea he would kill a baby. Maybe that baby has something to do with tying shoes?

This is just such a demented cartoon I have no choice but to recommend it. The animation is as good as ever. I really love how these cartoons are so good with putting their expressions on screen. The voices are perfectly suited as well. It's a good thing the second segment was longer, you should have just not put in that first segment at all.

[Pinchy Paddies]

Okay, well that was the very definition of short, but sweet. I didn't seem to understand why you would be concerned with Saint Patrick's Day because you live in the UK. Then again, Ireland is certainly much closer (and has a longer history associated with it) to the UK than the USA does. It kind of makes you wonder why it's such a big holiday in the United States. Well, at least you're celebrating it in a location where it's more suited. The animation is as good as ever.

I thought it was Labor Day that you got pinched if you didn't wear something. Then again, a giant crab appearing makes as much sense. I couldn't even hear what he was saying because there was so much screaming. This is the first St. Patrick's Day flash I've seen in a long time. Hope you had a great one!
