Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Slippy Dippy Shenanigans (StarFox)]

This was good, but I did think it was too short. The best part was probably the animation. It was kind of wonky, but worked well for the tone. It kept sounding like they were saying the f-word at times. I guess "Fox" just sounds a lot like it. The explosion was cool too.

The title is pretty funny too. I guess it could have used more shenanigans. The colors were very nice. Everything counts in a cartoon like this. While not great for me, still rather enjoyable.

Tiltro responds:

When I was animating the audio I thought the same thing as well. Also glad you thought the explosion was cool, I don’t do much effects like that so I’m glad it turned out well. Thanks for the review I appreciate the honesty.

[Anna-Logue: Root Error]

Wow, that was incredible! The best part was probably the animation. It reminded me of "The Amazing Digital Circus". If only we had a cartoon that popular back here. Anna Logue's a pretty funny name. There's more in this series?

It was nice to include their names at the end. With how crazy this is, it's easy to not remember their names! I mean, there's so much insanity going on here! It's just a very fun and creative cartoon. Who knew flowers could make something so hectic?

MachoBoyANIM responds:

Weeds often cause trouble under the surface, you know.
Also thank you so much, TADC is a great show and I got more planned for this series indeed.

[Wipe It Away - Sing-Along Version]

Uh wow, that was weird. I have to admit this was very bizarre. It was just lyrics with a doll going with it. She kind of looked like Amethyst. I didn't know it would be that vulgar. I mean, it was mostly the context.

That's what makes it so unexpected. It's still very bold in its own right. I mean, this is a pretty unique cartoon. It is pretty catchy. It was interesting to watch something that focused on visuals in an odd way.

MelieConieK responds:

Check out the animated short this is from. This is just a sing along video for it. :)

[Uncanny Landings - Intro]

Oh, dang it! I wanted to see a fuller version! Anyway, this was still enjoyable. I thought you were going to rhyme it with "horny" at first. Instead, you just went with "gay". This guy looks like a dinosaur.

This was definitely vivid. It was extremely focused and had great colors. It's a fairly original presentation. Dang, I am just not giving out my highest ratings lately, am I? This is good, it's just not great for me!

StaggerNight responds:

thanks Ericho, you are great to me.

[Klonoa 2: Commercial Break]

Well, the animation was at least good. I appreciate how it's fairly unique. It was just kind of boring. I mean, bumpers here don't do much for me. I can still appreciate this. I still like the colors.

I thought this was going to be a lot more. I know very little about Klonoa. It was fun seeing these characters. I just wanted to see a full fledged cartoon. The score is still quite high.

AntonCorazza responds:

You dock 2.5 stars because it isn't made to your personal preference, even though you know very little about the series? Meaning no disrespect- This is fanart, and it's not our responsibility to make a super ambitious "full fledged cartoon" to anyone, let alone someone who doesn't know who these characters are. That's what the games are for, and I do hope you'll play them and perhaps come back to this piece with the perspective it gives you. Regardless, the point of this piece is the be like an anime bumper. If you dock points off an anime bumper for not being more than exactly what we set out to make it, I can't help but feel like you're missing the point entirely and that the criteria by which you're docking points is not at all fair or reasonable.Peace and love tho.

[Humerus]

It sounds like they were talking about the Wii. I have to admit that this was probably your strangest cartoon ever. I thought it was a reference to "Attack On Titan". I haven't read or watched that actually. It wasn't in the tags, so I assume it wasn't. This was just bizarre.

I liked seeing all those other guys coming along. I don't know why his bones turned into those weird appendages. I enjoyed seeing something so weird from you. You deserve some credit. While by no means great, still pretty good.

Bobert-Rob responds:

Thanks! Yeah, I know, it's a bit out there. But I've been stuck in fish mode on Youtube for quite awhile and really, REALLY wanted to break the mold a bit. This is an idea I've been sitting on for like a year and a half. I'm glad I can finally say I've done it though.

Oh, and I've never seen Attack on Titan either. Though I know from ads that there's a character like this in it, the human anatomy display. It was just a convenient way of me showing what was happening in his body.

[Mortal Kombat Mishaps XXL Aftermath+1]

For some reason, I misread Apr as August. I didn't know it was abbreviated that way. It was great to see this sprite work again. I guess people don't like them anymore. My favorite bit might have been, "That's my purse! I don't know you!".

I'm not even a fan of "King Of The Hill". If this was submitted in like 2000 to 2004, people would love it. I wasn't expecting that second frozen bit. The Noob Saibot bit was probably the coolest. I'm not bothered into going back to look at the segment titles.

VicHD responds:

Sprite movies have died down here. My stuff has more of a cult following on YouTube nowadays for obvious reasons.

[Gwimbly Smash Trailer]

This was a very well animated cartoon. I will admit it was kind of boring. I mean, it was just Gwimbly kicking a can and that was it. He was playing a game! I just expecting something more. That is the way these characters are introduced.

This character has gotten pretty popular lately. He has such an odd name. It sounds like Gumby's cousin. It's very simple. I love the artwork too.

NoodleDood12 responds:

I really appreciate you giving me your honest on this. I agree that its a little boring but my goal was to just make something short to show off the model. Kicking the can of corn was the least I could do while still referencing the character himself. I wanted to keep things short and simple in the end.
I'm happy you enjoyed it though. Thanks for the review :]

[Gwimbly Title Screen (NDS, 2005)]

I'm glad you apologizing for this short cartoon. I can only imagine how hard it can be to come up with characters. It was very nice to see this animation style. We've been having a lot of those things lately. I loved how it fit. Please make it longer, though.

I haven't seen a handheld system that like in a long time, though. It looks like it was based on Tamagotchi. This guy kind of looks like an orange dinosaur. Don't remind me of the orange dinosaur's fate in that Kraft cartoon. That one was still better.

violxiv responds:

Well It's just I would rather put my energy into more substantial projects than spending all day on memes.

and It's a DS, not a tamagotchi?

[Living in Japan (TRAILER)]

I have to admit it was interesting to see something animated from you. Oh, I remember you have done this before. This was still done quite well. I like how you mention on the length in the description. Wait, every submission nowadays tell you how long it is. This was done interestingly.

I thought that "Living In Japan" was the name of the video game. Apparently, it's just about literally living in Japan. The title still doesn't make much sense to me. You are in fact a good artist. A cartoon reviewer could work here.

GAMESMADEOFCARDBOARD responds:

thanks so much for watching!!!
