Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Odd Todd Halloween 5]

This is another really good Halloween entry. It was freaking cool to see where he was going to end up next in terms of his dreams. I didn't even know if it was a dream at first or if he was just insane or something. I guess it takes a lot of failures before getting something right. The cheesy animation is as satisfying as ever. I do wish it could have had some better jokes. At least it was freaking unpredictable.

I appreciate you submitting your stuff here even if you never got a lot of recognition for it. It's interesting to see all different kinds of stuff here. I really like the voice and think it fits him so well. It's cool to see orange spiders, my favorite color. This must have been some Halloween for you.

[Odd Todd Halloween 2]

This is a great cartoon and I have no idea why this has so few views. From what I've heard, you're one of the most popular animators on the Internet! I guess some websites aren't for all people. I appreciate how you keep up the cheesy animation. Whenever there's color in it, it always stands out. I love how you touch on so many cliches with him talking about the house being on Indian burial ground and stuff. My only complaint is that it seems to go on a bit too long.

Of course, I didn't start with these cartoons on your website or anything. I guess the numbered parts represent numerous years. I loved how the guy with the job offer was the scariest of all to Todd. While the animation isn't that good, it actually does have some fine details. I love all the audio bits from horror movies.

[Megaman - Rockin in paper]

I was very impressed by this submission! It's not often you see a lot of stop motion stuff here. It makes me glad that there are always people who are going to experiment with different kinds of styles. The best part was probably how you used different everyday objects to tell the story. It's just nice when there's a lot going on in a way that everyone can associate themselves with. The music is great too.

I never had the chance to play the Mega Man games when I was younger, so I'm glad to be introduced to it. I liked how Mega Man himself was a piece of paper and the obstacles were more solid. I can't say anything about improving on colors because it was just using real life objects. It's been awhile since I've heard him being referred to as "Rockman". Congradulations on maintaining this high score.

[Hank Hanky: Your Cat]

It's interesting to see all kinds of stuff you can work on. This was weird, because it had a lot of dialogue. I don't know if that's actual audio you used, but it probably is. Anyway, I actually used to have somewhat of a problem myself only now he just bites me, so I highly doubt he's trying to give me a high five. We had him declawed. I really just love cats too much to replace him with a dog.

The animation was really good too. I liked how everything seemed to be moving so fast and how there were rarely repeating movements. The live-action clips were also pretty cool. It's a weird little submission, but it's nice. I appreciate how it made more sense than some other weird stuff I've seen.

Yep, it's real people calling in and asking questions.

[TIMELESS (NATA '12)]

This was a really great cartoon and it worked because it was so emotional. The animation is still pretty high in terms of quality. I am glad you included a synopsis in the author comments. It certainly didn't make a lot of sense to me at first, but that's never stopped me from liking something before. I like how you really try to appeal to our place in the Universe and not just how science works. I think the stuff the scientist draws on the chalkboard are actual scientific equations.

Of course, I doubt they're about time travel. The music was just gorgeous in this. It's something like this that makes you realize you don't need to have dialogue because the music gives you all you need. It's an interesting and profound cartoon and it's great you're getting recognized for it. Hard to believe it took only a week to make!

[Stickman Can't Fight 2]

I thought this was good, but not good to the point where it has this high rating. What's good about this is how there are so many art styles. I wish there could have been more! This is a pretty nicely done cartoon, because you did little snippets of art shift here and there. The music was pretty good too. I must have gotten into some glitch because I kept hearing this commercial the first time I played it.

It worked fine when I refreshed it, of course. I like how everyone's a good sport in this. It probably doesn't make it any less painful for the players, though. I could see the fist on your face joke coming from a mile away. Good enough to recommend to stick fans.

thanks for the review. if you think that this one is good, check out the other ones! and please do recommend to stick fans ;)

[How Drugs Help]

I like how you creep us out by mentioning the mysterious stranger in the author comments. What I really liked about this was the animation as usual. You will simply never stop making amazing flashes like this. I felt this could have been wackier, though. I had no idea that drugs could make you literally travel back in time. Wouldn't your dad realize you have a son that looked just like the guy who raped you?

You'd probably be so confused you wouldn't figure it out. I believe that some kinds of drugs can help you. When you take them with other drugs, you never know what's going to happen. It's too bad you're a bit late for 420, as I noticed the clock. Good ol' marijuana.

[Game Facts: Battlefield 3]

This was another good entry in this series. It took me two refreshes to get it to work properly. I think there's some new kind of layout that this website is using that I'm having trouble getting used to. Anyway, the animation is great as always. I love how utterly stupid these guys are. I knew that they were going to like what they heard, even if it was a fart.

That has to be some kind of weird fetish to get off to that. The voicework is as good as ever. I appreciate you always coming up with new ways to mock the industry. I haven't played those games, so I'm not familiar with it. That does sound like a sound effect from a game like that.
