Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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!

[Still Alive - Portal]

At first, I was disappointed because I thought it was going to be a computer's statement. I'm glad to know I'm on this website where that rarely happens! The coolest thing is how the computer interacts with the environment. It shows a good transition when you go outside the range of the computer. Yep, I knew that cake was a lie. I like how this computer manages to have such a good attitude even though she has a cybernatic voice.

I guess this means I won't have to play, much less, beat the game! There's a lot of funny random moments like the blood that goes everywhere. Geez, that really is a delicious cake. While the song talks about death and stuff, it still has a pretty positive tone to it. Or maybe I'm just listening to it the wrong way.

[Megaman General Bubbleman]

I kind of felt this was one of your lesser entries, because it was so short. Still, something that's frame by frame has to take a long time to make. I can't bash you for that, because I know nothing about using flash myself. Gee, if only the bosses in the actual games were that easy to kill. I haven't played the original games per se, but have played imitations. It's so hard to get past some of those guys!

The animation is as good as ever. It's still a cool image to see that saw thing slicing into his body. Next time, you could probably have more going on. It's still not bad for what it is. I didn't know Mega Man turned brown like that.

[Mythtory: The Olympics]

I'm not sure if actual Greek mythology could count as history. Then again, I guess you could say the same thing about most religions. What's funny is how you're able to only intervene a few times and let the characters do the rest. I think this is one of your better submissions, if only because it's great to see how these characters play off each other. I was in no way expecting the little guy to win! Of course, something bad does happen to him at the end.

Then again, that same thing happens to everyone else. It took me awhile to get the joke, the guy wore glasses because he was blind and thus immune to Medusa. That's why he was using the signs wrong. It's great because you have no idea what's going to happen next. I imagine the next will be the Roman Empire, perhaps?

captainmcross responds:

Roman Empire coming soon...but next I am doing ancient China and the Silk trade!

[Goldeen Loves Guitar]

Dude, this is the best animated Pokemon piece I have ever seen on this site! It's amazing how you managed to get everything so perfect in this! Apart from the fact that it's drop dead hilarious, it's so worth seeing. You so much expect this to turn out violent as gore is a way a lot of people on this website go. The emotions and everything else are absolutely perfect in this! You should become a professional animator on the show!

Hey, if Kirbopher could be a voice actor, you could do something. The colors are freaking gorgeous, too. I like how you get to see the silly faces on the Team Rocket members' faces. You don't know what's going to come next in this masterpiece. Ash's voice was pretty much spot on too. Glad it didn't turn out to be pornographic.

[TOME Episode 03]

Wow, it's weird how you (Kirbopher) were not actually in this. This is one of the better episodes and one of the most flawless out there. It's unbelievable you and other people have managed to get so many professional voice actors in this! I think the coolest thing is probably how good the animation is. My gosh, you sure know how to draw women well. I will gladly wait an eternity for the episodes and movie to come out with Lacksine and Dustbunny, the two hotties of this series.

I thought that Ravenfreak was supposed to be a girl. The other characters call him "he", so I guess he isn't. I also found it funny how I didn't even think he was a girl at first, because he seemed more like a transvestite, which I guess he was. Everyone was fantastic in this. It's rare you see a flash cartoon with so many different voices in it. Everyone knows everyone else here on the Internet, I guess.
