Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Friday by Bob Dylan]

Lots of fun

Ah, I wish that was Black in the corner. I guess it could be worse, it could be that annoying "My Jeans" video that's been getting popular. I wonder how long most people watched it before knowing it was an infinite loop? The artwork is really good in this. The best work of course is the voice work which really does sound just like Bob Dylan. It's amazing how a talented singer can make even the dumbest songs enjoyable.

Of course, it also helps that the tune used on the guitar is way better than the kind in the original. It seems just like what Bob Dylan would be like if he sang this song. It makes a person appreciate looking forward to the weekend. Hey, I just realized that I'm writing this review on Friday itself! The tongue movements were weird.

[Madness Dance Party 2]

How odd

This has got to be one of the most pleasant Madness entries I've ever seen. It is quite different than anything else as it doesn't have any violence. I was expecting some of it to suddenly break out and have people die. To my surprise, it actually kept this happy tune the entire time. It helps that the song is pretty sweet and it's something you can dance to. It just goes to show that you can do virtually anything with the Madness characters.

It's also great how the one guy's face is so adorable! It's the first time I've ever seen a Madness guy with a face like that and it is so cute! I had no idea that anything related to Madness could ever be that cute. The environment is nicely set up, particularly with how it just rotates everywhere. Dance parties are so awesome!

I smell a Daily Feature!

I have to admit it really made it for me when Newgrounds appeared at the end. It seemed like such an obvious thing. I also loved the whole thing around, because it was great to see the personifications interacting with each other. I have seen other examples of this and it's simply a great idea. Poor MySpace. The funniest part was easily at the end when YouTube pulled out the Rebecca Black video and then he was brutally beaten by Facebook and Google+.

It reminds me of how I don't go on Facebook that often, more to Google (+?). I'm not even quite sure the difference between regular Google and Google+. It gives you a sense that the website are in their own world because of the blank background. Of course if you wore a hat, you could also be wearing a hat or something. I don't know, this is funny.

[Milk of the Manwhore]

This is f*cked up

I guess I was thinking this would be a music video. At least I am more familiar with the main character to the point where I recognize the ridiculous tone. The weirdest part of this would have to be how the man has elastic nipples. I can't understand what's going on, but it's still extremely funny and very nicely done. The animation is great, especially with how the eyes are purple. It's a shade I rarely see.

I was thinking the yogurt was going to be made from his own milk. It seemed like that was the only line that wasn't crossed in this video. The voice acting is great as always, with a perfect sense of emotion put to everything. Everybody just moves around in such a funny and silly way. It's great that you keep making this great stuff!

thanks ericho!

[The Noob Adventures Episode 4]

Best yet!

It's great to see this series take off, as this is the best one you have released. The funniest part was easily when the guy got slapped for asking if girls played Minecraft. Hey, I was wondering the same thing. It's amazing how much dimension you manage to have in your works when it's not that well detailed. With nothing but blocks, I imagine it would be hard to move around. While not as high quality as Cuboy probably, it still works well.

I am eager to see if they succeed in killing Gaylord. It's interesting how the one character was making a Sonic replica just like a sprite because everything is blocks. It was pretty shocking to see that girl die. A score of 4.50 and there are two submissions today that are even higher?! You got unlucky, but you should still the proper recognition.

Falconer02 responds:

Thanks! And it's a good day for NG! Lots of awesome stuff coming out. I really don't care much about the trophies and whatnot-- I just like to hear what people have to say :)

[IAMW, Charlie Brown]

Seems familiar

As a giant "Peanuts" fan, I admired how precise everything was to its detail. I have always been a fan of the artwork of the "Peanuts" characters, even if it wasn't that well done. I was thinking this would be a collab like that other Mad World flash. It wasn't really that much about the song, anyway. I know there's another cartoon here featuring Charlie Brown killing Lucy with a katana or something. I can't remember the name, but she deserves it either way.

The voices were pretty well made out. I did kind of feel like Charlie Brown sounded like an Englishman or something at one point. I liked how you included Schulz's nickname "Sparky" in this. It was a cool idea to have a prequel comic, especially considering it was in the format of the regular comic strip. Oh wait, that katana cartoon was made by you, great stuff anyway.

[Goetia - intro]

An intro?

This had so many bizarre things going on, it was hard to tell if it was good or bad. For the most part, I have to say it is in fact really good because it's so darn cool! I really appreciated the random arrangement of cut out images everywhere. It reminds me of animutation, even though this was not one itself. My favorite part is probably the three skulled Uncle Sam. There's no rhyme or reason to what's going on, which I love!

It kind of sounds like you were trying to make out the "Doodoocaca" song. Whatever the tune was, it fit the bizarre tone. I guess the only thing I didn't like was how it was in black and white and I like to see colors. I like how there's so many things going on, like the soldiers on the side of the screen. You are demented and creative!

[Paper Wars]

Very nice

I guess it's too obvious to compare this to the "Pencilmation" series. In many ways, this is actually better than that because the characters seem to have more emphasis. What's interesting is how you don't know what's going to happen next. When he pulled the second gun out, I thought he was just going to shoot him, but instead he fired some glue thing at him. It's great to see how the emotions do the talking for these characters. There's a lot of depth to their appearances, too.

It's also great how the pencil style is completely different than that of the real world. The sound effects are good and cartoonish. I can understand why this won every single main positive award because it's so creative. We all have daydreams where we sketch silly things in school. Heck, I probably have entire books I can make just from those sketches.
