Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Edd Egg - Duke]

Ain't it the truth?

I am surprised you did not make any jokes about how long the game took to make. It is pretty sad seeing as how the response for this game has generally been negative. In fact, people would probably only buy it because of how long it took to make. The animation and voicework were as great as ever. I knew I had to review something about the game that took the longest to make (it has to be, right?). The funniest part was probably when he was attacking Amy.

I was seriously not expecting female violence in this, but it's funnier this way. The jokes about his penis were good too. Dang, that dude has one scary bulging crotch. I would want to play that game only because of how long it took to make. It's kind of like "Snakes On A Plane" where people only watched it because of how popular it was on the Internet and its name.

[Hammer & Fail 2]

What ridiculous wait?

I guess I've been watching so many things I don't even find this to be that bad in terms of wait. It was amazing how you got so many celebrities to do voices! I think it's easily the biggest cast of anything you guys have worked on. The thing I did not like was how there wasn't much about building in this, as it made the first installment funny. There were just so many funny moments in this. I think my favorite would be when the ghost was possessing Matt and it argued with him.

You should see more jokes like that. I should have the joke coming with the rapid ferret attacking Todd. It reminds me of how the Harry Potter movie was split into two parts and even then, how those parts were different. The animation was top-notch as always. I knew we were off to a good start with the joke in the very beginning of the cartoon.

[Astromiau EP 01]

NCH85 worked on this?!

It is great that you are starting a new series. The weird thing is that this is really unlike anything you have submitted before. In the beginning, I thought it was just going to be a music video, like most of your stuff. It's great that you experimented with a brand new set of characters. The one thing I didn't like was the interactive part of the movie where you controlled Astromiau. It just seemed kind of silly and pointless.

The animation is as great as ever, especially with how he cries. It's probably also the funniest thing you ever submitted. I lol'd at the part where they took the mushrooms and they started looking realistically. He should know (as a cat) not to trust dogs. Cats in space is an idea that can simply never go wrong in adorableness.

[Clock Day '09 retro]

Foiled again!

I personally find that picture of the cat to be pretty good. The hat doesn't seem to add much to it, and it just makes it look silly. Anyway, this was an alright submission for Clock Day. I guess the animation style just looks too old and it has little that makes it stand out from other Clock Day submissions. Did PineappleClock (or whatever his real name is) actually die? May that man/clock rest in peace.

Looking at your profiles makes me realize how prolific you guys are! I guess it would only make sense you would come together for a project. Next time, try to put in more detail to the animation. The music at the end is pretty good and I would have liked to hear more during the cartoon. The artwork does make it a bit retroactive.

[klik say happy clock day]

Nothing

Well, I think there may have been a mistake in this, because this appears to be a blank screen. It's too bad this got such a low rating on Clock Day. You could have at least made this Clock themed by putting some Clocks in it. I find it amazing that so many people managed to contribute to this. I didn't hear any voices or music, nor did I see anything at all. It seems a bit impossible for numerous people to work on a blank screen.

I suggest next time you try to submit something. I'm guessing it might have a loading error, but I think this is in fact what it's supposed to do, with just the blank screen. Hopefully, you guys can all work together to make something better next year. There are so many better things out there. I think this might even be my least favorite thing I ever reviewed.

Ouch!

[--Orange--]

That's my favorite color!

I thought this was a really cute cartoon because it taught a great lesson. It's all about allowing yourself to show who you really are. With this message, you can spread it to other people and have everyone show off their creativity. Orange also happens to be my favorite color. I just always thought that it was the most vibrant of colors and it seemed to stand out well. It makes you realize how big a role color plays in our lives.

While a bit too cutesy, it definitley works. The main character looks like a Muppet (I guess it's the nose). In fact, this whole thing looks like something that would be on an animated segment from "Sesame Street". Hopefully, we can take a message from this and learn to express ourselves. I'm so glad it worked out well for him.

[goggles are sexy luis]

And that's why I'm wearing a hat

As a frequent poster on the BBS, it is great when you reference it and show threads. I don't think I saw this one thread, but I can certainly believe it exists. People make crazy stuff all the time. I think this is probably the most detailed drawing of yourself that you have ever made. The other animation like with the disturbing naked Luis was great too. I hope you show up at the London meeting on August 6th as I know I won't.

It's also cool how you managed to get so many songs for a fairly short submission. I love how you seemed so deadpan in this as you are in most of your cartoons. From the title, I thought this was going to be a spam submission. Never judge a book by its cover, but you can do the same with posts like that. It could have been longer, but was zany enough to be awesome.

[Somnolence]

Pretty well done

I think this kind of went beyond being a "furry" movie. I didn't regard it as such, because the characters seemed to be more animal-like than furry, which worked for me. It was great how everything was presented in such a big screen. The main flaw is that it is rather short, and you don't get much of a sense of a story. Still, you did provide a nice description in the author comments. I would like to see this expanded on further, as the story could be expressed more.

The colors in this were really quite lush, particulary with how the colors looked so good. The lines could have maybe been done a bit better. The sound and music were also good, and they helped set a mood for the story. These creatures are just really well designed. Put in more of a story seen in the flash and it could be better.

[C. Crashing a Wedding]

That was weird

Hey, I just came back from the toilet too! Anyway, this was a really weird flash because I just had no idea what was going on. What does matter is that the animation for this is fantastic and it moves so fluidly. I never thought I would say this, but it seems like it's been awhile since I have heard Rina-chan's voice in a flash. She just seemed to be perfectly emoted in frustration at what was going on. Maybe my questions will be answered in the next installment.

Gee, you would think I would know all about Castle Crashers given how it startd on this website. I guess you have to really play the game yourself to fully understand it. I'm surprised the green knight survived being hit by the lasers. It does make me anticipate what will happen in the next entry. It's great how the body movements are so exagerrated, as usual.

[Thinking]

It's been so long!

I think it's sad you seemed to have faded into obscuruity in recent times. This was great because of how amazingly adorable it was. You appear as this little angel telling exactly what is on your mind. Everyone can associate thinking with themselves, especially me. The animation is fantastic, and you just look so adorable. While I would probably rather see your cartoon self as hotter, you looked great in your cuteness.

Everything about this cartoon was just so real. It seems like you were speaking entirely from your heart, and in no way showed anything artificial. It's great that a cartoon from 2004 manages to get this high a rating in today's age. I will be thinking of you and how sincere you are in your creations. May you live a wonderful life.
