Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chips.]

How strange...

This was an extremely strange cartoon to look at. At first, I was thinking it was just going to be a spam flash or a joke kind with nothing going on. I admit, I was pleasantly surprised to find out this actually was pretty creative. The coolest thing about it was the animation which just went everywhere. You were right to put this under the "Experimental" genre. It's really quite artsy overall, even if it makes no sense.

I am glad it did not end after the first set of credits. I thought this was going to be all about potato chips or edible chips in some way. If I had a pet chip, I think I would name him "Chip". The music was nicely done as well. While extremely incoherent, it had enough style for me to recommend it and you have made a style of your own.

[Cold Hill Horror]

You monster!

At first, I thought this was goig to be something interesting, but you put Justin Bieber at the end! That's the worst thing you could possibly do! Seriously, this was at least a lot better than a lot of other goofy stuff I've seen here. Good thing you warned us it was going to be stupid. The best thing about this was that the animation used wasn't half bad. I must have a dirty mind, I thought the cup at the beginning had poop in it.

I don't think I've ever heard this song before. In fact, I don't even think I've ever heard of Miss A before. What matters is that you tried to make something that was a bit entertaining until they end. Another good factor is how you didn't make the song go on forever as it stopped after awhile. At least it wasn't that "Jeans" song.

[Stoner Mario Bros 1-1]

Can't hate it

Wow, I really had no idea where this is going. For something about the Mario brothers being stoned, this was actually more intelligent than I thought it would be. The thing that helps is that the sprite work is quite good in this. I don't know why the brothers have their colors reversed, but that's the least weird thing about this. I wasn't sure what was going to happen because of the intro. At least now I know what movie that "Excellent" sound comes from.

Everything was pretty well paced, even if it didn't make much sense. Due to the weed factor, it was hard to follow through. I suggest you put in some more action next time, but this was certainly not bad. It helps that you also use that great music throughout the whole cartoon. You really seemed to create a unique Mario level for this.

[Straw Berry Clock]

Kind of an obvious joke

It's nice that people are always giving their Clock Day flashes credit. While the animation wasn't good, at least this submission had an original concept to it. You would think that with all the thousands of Strawberry Clock flashes out there, someone would have made that joke. It still would have been nice to put in a background or music. I know it's not meant to be that good, but it would make it more enjoyable. I'm seeing illuminate on everything I review now!

Some of the moving text was a bit creative, but not enough to save it. It doesn't even look that much like a straw. It looks more like it's trying to look like a lawnmower moving on the grass or something. At least you had a nice Clock Day with a lot of 5s and stuff. It even looks more like a raspberry than a strawberry.

[Zombie of Nazi Persuasion]

How random

I think it might be the first submission I ever saw where the only person credited was the "actor". While I don't think these kinds of submissions belong here, this was still pretty good. At first, I thought it was going to be a parody of "Tik Tok". It was mostly because you started the song with "Wake up in the morning". The coolest part was probably when you showed the gameplay with the zombies being killed. I was actually expecting it to be more outrageous with the title.

At least it looks like everyone had fun with this. I suggest you maybe make the rhyming a little faster as you don't seem to emote that well. Now, I'm not familiar with this game, so I can not complain about if it was authentic to its style. You consistently keep up a good sense of fun. I hope you continue to kill Nazis and zombies!

[Screwdriver's Clockday 09]

Same to you

This was a bit entertaining to watch because the animation was good. You also seemed to acknowledge the fact that there was nothing special planned for this. You even managed to get a higher number of views than most Clock Day flashes. I hate to say that the thing I did not like was the music used. This seemed to be different than the usual song. I guess it might be because I haven't heard it in a long time.

Everything does look quite lush with the animation. If you're going to make something brief, at least you decided to make it really cool looking. I hope you had a great Clock Day in 2009 as I am sure you did with this high score. There could have been more action music. I am surprised this did not depict anyone getting shot.
