Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MLP: Rarity bath time]

Great!

I am generally not a person who is for simple moving pictures, but this is an exception! I think this may in fact be the best piece of MLP fanart I've ever seen! Of course, by "best", I mean the kind that comes to the closest to looking like the TV show looks. I love how some of the other pony characters appear in this. This is just what makes the show so awesome with its animation! I do kind of think this should go more in the Art Portal.

I love how you have a really soft melody to soothe the viewer as they are watching this great piece. A full fledged cartoon would be perfect. It's even great to see the drops of water on the ground! It's great to be introduced to someone so talented. This is pretty much everything that made MLPFIM so popular.

I didn't know we had an art portal, thanks!

[Villainy - The Tape]

Go away!

This was a really cool cartoon because it was so funny. I was actually thinking that it might take a turn for a scarier side but eventually not at the end. I probably didn't like this as much as most people because I could predict the ending. I don't think anyone has a laserdisc player anymore either. In fact, I don't even recall a time where I saw a laserdisc player! What's also great is that you consistently keep up your great style of animation.

I was hoping it would be another music video like "Gone Too Far Too". While it did have the same character in it (albeit not the star), it wasn't related to it much. I love how the guy is so fearless when he yells at the ghost. Seems like you'd be cursed either way in that scenario. You won the Daily Feature for Halloween, happy Halloween!

[Jack's Halloween Treats]

Very nice!

I think this might be my favorite Halloween submission so far this year. I have little doubt you shall win Daily Feature. I guess it's true that black cats are satanic. I would have to say that the best and scariest part of this was when you saw the pumpkin guy's silhouette at the end. You wondered what he looked like under that head, but it revealed it WAS his head! The artwork is fantastic and it seems like a nice standard Halloween story.

The way the guy doesn't talk makes him even scarier. I guess that's why so many horror movies feature villians who are like that, huh? I sincerely thought at least the girl was going to get out of there and wasn't expecting there to be the law of mirrors or whatever at the end. I hope you have a Happy Halloween! I think we all know people who act like this in our teenage years.

What?

One of the biggest flaws of this is that it goes on way too long. It would have been a lot more enjoyable if there had been some actual sound in it too. This seems way too much like a test, which is something generally frowned upon again. The only thing I liked was how you could pause it. It was just unpleasant to see all those black lines everywhere. This would have worked a lot better if it was a tutorial or something. Mostly everything is white space with some poorly done colors.

I'm sorry I didn't like this, but at least it is your first flash. I suggest having a background and having a lot more movement going on. It seems like it's just a bunch of still frames over and over. It needs to be of much higher quality for something that goes on this long. At least you seem to have knowledge of "Dragonball Z".

WHAT?!

In case anyone is wondering, this clocks in at roughly fourteen minutes. Wow, this is one of the biggest and most awesome things I've seen EVER!! I have heard of "Homestuck" before, but never read the webcomic. This is just among the most fantastic things I have ever seen on the entire Internet! I have no idea in the least what is going on in this, all I know is that it's completely flawless! Every character design is fantastic and completely original!

I had no idea when it was going to end, it was hard to tell if it was starting over. Every single frame and color was drop dead gorgeous and gave off a wonderful sense of emotion. You are going places, my friend! I hope to become a full fledged fan of the webcomic if only because of this flawless masterpiece! I love how there's so much going on and all these wonderful flashy colors just flying around everywhere! You make me proud to be a prolific reviewer!

[Mystery Meats]

Should have a higher score

I think this is one of the better cartoons you have made. It's funny how Phil still has the marks from when he took his nipples off. Yes, "Chest Pimples" was one of the most noteworthy episodes. What I thought was cool was how you guys consistently keep up your awesome animation. With block characters, you'd think it would be pretty low in quality. Of course, you simply work with whatever you have like in "South Park". It was certainly creepy enough to be a Halloween cartoon.

I think the funniest parts was when he mentioned how he was gay and/or adopted. I knew that hair came from his pubes. I hope you guys keep up this awesome work with these great cartoons! It's great that you have so many people working with you for voices and animation. I am glad Joey told the girl everything that was going on for me to understand it.

[Eyes Up]

Mostly good

The main thing I didn't like about this was the end. It just seemed a bit pointless and didn't lead to a funny final punchline. I still enjoyed this for the most part, because this is something that simply everyone can associate with. Well, all the male people at least. I have no clue if women in the bathrooms have this problem. From the title, I thought it was going to be about a guy looking at a woman's breasts.

The voices are decent and they fit the scenarios well. If I was going to the bathroom that quickly, I would wonder what it was I drank too. The artwork wasn't bad, it could just use a bit more detail. It seems like it's been awhile since I've seen a flash from you, KupaMan. It was nice to have a lot of music in for something mundane.

[Halloween Treat]

Pretty funny

I am certainly ready for Halloween coming up! This was a funny cartoon because of the different ways he insulted the kids. At least the other kids managed to get a big candy bar to go along with their insults! The funniest part was probably when he called the girl dressed as a princess a whore. I guess any Halloween costume for girls would come off as liking like that. I especially love how ridiculous these characters looked.

Hey, that kid was a cloud, he was just a fat cloud! It could have been a bit longer, but it still got the jokes across well. I guess I was just expecting some more jokes, but this certainly worked for what it had. The voices are nice and they seem suit the characters well. I guess this was not just a treat for the kids, but a treat for us with this flash.

Next year I'll submit something waaaay better. :D

[Power Rangers! Pink]

Looks great!

The only downside of this cartoon is that it's so short. Of course, it still manages to deliver the goods well with some really spectacular animation. It's hard to say what the best part is, because the whole thing is really the best part! I am not a fan of "Power Rangers" myself, but every fan should appreciate this. The monsters had a really cool design. They kind of almost looked like the kinds of ghosts you'd see in "Ghostbusters".

If you intend on making this into a series, then by all means do it! You've already received tons of positive feedback for this entry! Wait, maybe the best part is how the pink blasts turn into pterodactyls. The music is nice and really sets an awesome mood for the cartoon. It works well as a loop, because you can watch it over and over.
