Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Spot Of Paint]

Fairly weird

I think the worst part about this is that there is little sound. It would have been nice to keep some constant sound effects or maybe even a little song. Another weak point was that the animation was not that good. The strongest point, however, is the fact that it is in fact an original punchline and that is hard to hate. I do find it unlikely that puss that comes out of your acne would be orange, as I would know, uh, yeah. It could have also worked better if it was just a little bit longer.

[Ancient ChineseStorytime5]

What?

I wished there could have been more than a single picture. As smart as I am, I actually know little about Chinese military history. If the stuff you talked about was true, then I have to thank you for giving us all a history lesson. I could of course tell that some of it was made up the funnier the story got. I think that next time you should not use one of those clock voices as using nothing but that voice is not a good idea. It is interesting that you want to educate us, or at least entertain us in something not that known to most people.

[Tom Selleck's Sea Quest 4]

Those comments again?

It was interesting to now notice that none of the entries in this series have much of a plot anyway. This seems to have more as you end on a cliffhanger. It does kind of make me wonder why you guys did not just submit everything altogether. How where you ever able to get more than 2 submissions the same day? I guess you were able to get past this because there were just so many people working on the same submissions. There could have been more backgrounds during the chase.

[Test Movie]

Yep, quite bad

I hate to break this to you, but we do not generally want test movies to be put on Newgrounds. I guess this does work just fine as a test, but it is hard to give those things a good review. I never watched "MacGyver" although I did watch the parody "MacGruber" sketches on SNL as well as the movie. It helps that this is such a good theme song. What does not work is how most of the images appeared to be just Photoshopped images with regular effects. I do hope you get to making better stuff.

[It's StrangeClocks Brthdy]

Hey there, StrangeClock

It is always nice to celebrate people on their birthdays, especially with a flash. I felt it was pretty funny how he mentioned it would be crazy to draw him, as he is an impossible figure. While there was not much action, it was still pretty creative. I especially like the unexpected designs and the extras like those guys from the scream painting. I was thinking of maybe calling myself CatClock, but of course someone already took that name! The way he shifted in and out of the cartoon reflected his personality well.

[Tom Selleck's Sea Quest 2]

A bit weaker

I think was a bit weaker than the last one, probably because it did not really move the story that well. I would have liked to see some more backgrounds or locations. I do like Tom Selleck's voice. It sounds like you were trying to combine a montone Clock voice with that of a regular voice. Of course, I am sure there are people who sound like that. While it does kind of seem as though this entry could have been skipped altogether, it was in no way terrible and it was nice to see that shark.

[The Hard Goodbye - CC]

Overall good

I know little about "Sin City" so it is a bit difficult to understand some of the jokes. Overall, it was enjoyable especially with how it knew how to be silly and serious at times. I knew that was going to happen to StrangeClock after what SteakClock said. While I do not fully understand the thing, I can still appreciate the nice animation. It seems like it was trying to give a really deep message, but maybe it was not. SteakClock seems to be giving a great performance, if that is even possible for a cartoon character.

[Tips On Shaving Pubes]

Pretty neat

I did not know whether to give this a 1 or a 10, so I simply went halfway and gave it a 5. The weakest point is that the sound can just get really annoying, especially with the voices. Its redeeming parts are that it is pretty unexpected overall. I especially like the appearance of the piranha although that could only be because I saw that piranha movie. I have a brother who shaves his butt hair a lot, but not his face. That hair can get a bit annoying for me, because my feces sometimes gets stuck in it.

[Daily2oon07132005]

Ooh, not bad

This is a decent Daily Toon because it had some very interesting things in it. As I could have expected, StrangeClock was by far the best animator in the entire animation. I really liked just all the crazy images that showed up in his part. You other guys did a fine job too and I especially like the one with the pokemon song. The thing is, I love those songs and even if I do not like the flash, I can listen to that song all day. The layout on the main page seemed to better than most layouts on Daily Toons.
