Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ZF - Halloween Special]

Not bad

While I am not the biggest fan of your work, this was pretty fun to watch. A pity I had to catch it after Halloween, but maybe you can make an earlier Thanksgiving one. The end was pretty weird, as I do not think a skeleton can rape anyone as it has no penis? The strongest point of this was the sprite work as everything was as authentic as most other Zelda flashes. I thought it was funny for him to dress as Zelda because Zelda is the title character after all. The music was pretty good in this too.

thx for the detailed explanation and for the compliments

[-[KK] Eric Clapton Sucks]

No, he doesn't

I think this is one of the Kitty Krew's most enjoyable submissions, if only because it was pretty creative. I guess I am not a fan of Eric Clapton either way, but you should not be so negative. I was impressed by the sheer number of songs used for this. It is such a breath of fresh air to find out that everyone contributed to this in their own way. That might not be saying much, but better than most of the stuff the Kitty Krew has done. My favorite part was seeing Meowth, as he is such a cool character.

[The Clown Prince Part1]

The animation was good

It was interesting to see how the series started out and it looks like it started out pretty good. At first, I was unable to see anything, so I thought maybe the flash had been removed. Luckily, I reopened it and saw it. The animation is really stylistic but it does look like it could have been made at a smaller picture for better image resolution. The sound did not seem to sync up well for me, so you should probably get that looked at. It was a bit hard to follow with the story, but it did seem like an original concept.

JetLong responds:

cheers, yes i dont know why flash does this to me, the sound is totally in sync on my computer but when i export it onto newgrounds it screws up! happened my other submissions too, wasnt happy.

[Un Millier de Bouteilles]

4.40?

Congradulations on getting such a high score on your first submission here, friend! You obviously have talent as I was very impressed by the style of this cartoon. It seemed like something you would see at a film festival. While a bit too short, it was great you did this for your class and I am sure you got the utmost credit for it! It was hard to tell what message the cartoon was trying to send to me. Was it about isolationism or maybe I should just appreciate it for exploring a person's fantasy.

Suncomes responds:

I'm always so surprised to see new comments on this post. Thanks!

Your right for the message. It's mostly about the fact that we're always a bit isolated, even in a big crowd. It was roughly my own understanding of "Message in a bottle" from The Police.

Also, thanks for the festival thing. This part of your comment touched me, really.
Hope you'll go see Rosie, my other one. Also, don't miss my next flash, wich should be posted during the following month.

Have a good day!

[Chest Pimples]

Great idea!

This was hilarious because it was a truly funny and original idea! Nipples really do in fact look a lot like chest pimples, I mean they have the aclera (whatever you call it) that pimples do. I was not that grossed out by this, even by the image at the end. Hey, men don't really need nipples anyway, except maybe for sexual simulation. I love how the guy is so apathetic over the fact that he's bleeding profusely. Another funny part was how the first guy changed his tone in midsentence.

[[KK] !!(!! !!%! also porn]

I remember!

I was trying to think of whatever song you were doing in the background of the cartoon, but it was the "Hamtaro" theme song. I like that as much as the next guy and it was a cute show. I think this is one of the better things you guys have made at the Clock Crew. It helps that you were not trying to put a bunch of porn in this or anything. I guess there were some parts of it that were creative, but still not that good. I think it is funny how this was labeled as an "informative" submission, as I have no idea why.

[graham the dinosaur]

Can tell it's quickly done

I like dinosaurs as much as the next person did (when I was a kid at least) but this needed improvement. It seemed like you were trying to recall back to a time where we were more innocent and had fantasies like this. I think the coloring is meant to reflect the use of crayons. Of course, with all the cynicalness out there, it was hard to tell if this was a parody or not. My advice is to make the images and sound more clear and try to have more of a story. You should really not try to put an animation together quickly.

[Ransom!]

Hey, daddy!

It is nice of you to win those awards, even though I did not find the cartoon that enjoyable. I guess the problem is that I was expecting everything to come along. The animation seems standard and I like how simplistic everything goes. For a moment there, I thought those guys actually did have the daughter over there, but it was a hoax. I wonder what they would have done if the dad had went along with the plan? If he gave them the five million dollars, wouldn't he then ask for his daughter back which they would not have, but then again they did not think it through.

[Zelda Files: Chapter 5]

It was alright

It was kind of nice to see one of these comic like cartoons with actual movement going on. At the same time, I am not used to seeing that kind of action and it is hard to get used to. Still, you obviously did well with the sprites. I would know a good Link sprite when I see it, as Kirbopher used one for me in the TTA series. There was a nice twist at the end with Kirby swallowing everybody. I just usually look for a fight scene that allows you to see all of the fight as it goes on and not just in panels.
