Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MadSeth 3: Recrudescence]

I didn't think this would be that good, but it definitley got better as it went on! I think my favorite thing was probably how the characters all seemed to have different designs. My only complaint is that some of the animation seemed a tad off. It's still great to see a guy who looks like an elf as the main character. I liked how some characters had their names on, so people could understand them. The sounds were good too.

It could have used some more music, but it really didn't need that much. It was interesting to see the different ways you could kill people. While not as good as the original Madness, still worth checking out. I wish I knew HOW to suggest things into the Madness category. It just doesn't work anymore.

Rapheus responds:

Glad you enjoyed it, this was my pride and joy whenever I made it.
Yeah, the animation was shabby at times, but in my defense, this was only my third animation.
Thanks a lot for the review!

[Adoptio - Mad-n Ia]

I have to admit that I was not very impressed with this. It's just that there have been so many better Madness flashes. I think my favorite part was probably when the bus (or whatever it was) was heading towards the guys. I guess it wouldn't have been fast enough to move out of the way. The music was pretty nice, though. You really seemed to be better at English than you think.

I thought this was going to be something with mad libs. It's just hard to tell. I tried to keep a body count, but there were too many deaths at one time. I really should do that more in Madness flashes. It didn't need to have so much talking.

Coft responds:

good ol' 2008

[Chaos Relay]

Dude, I thought this was freaking hilarious! I think my favorite part is probably when he manages to get hit by the building at the end. If I saw a woman who was in a bikini top THAT revealing, I would have felt the same way. I loved how there were cameos from British people like Eddsworld. I guess it kind of makes you appreciate the contributions Britain has made to this site. I especially love the fact how everything goes insane.

It seems like it was just the bird's fault at the end that the coliseum collapsed. It's too bad you're late for the 2012 Olympics. I still can't help but love this because of the great animation. It's awesome to see all these things going on and how they all add up in the end. Maybe the funniest was the people on fire. Yeah, that's morbid, but funny.

Zeurel responds:

This was originally aired during the Olympics, just uploaded to Newgrounds now.

[Parody Parody Parody]

This is funny, because I was actually thinking about how Pikachu gave children seizures. You didn't realize it, but there's a reason for that! I was really hoping this was going to be one of those infinite loop videos. It still turned out to be awesome. I love how you drew Pikachu and how funny he reacts to everything. The boobs were kind of, um, a turn off. It's really neat when you have a parody of a parody.

The animation all around is absolutely fantastic. Dang, you look like a demon in this cartoon. The lyrics are also very nice. I guess lightning AIDS would be more suitable than regular AIDS on Pikachu. The redundant title is cute too.

Sexual-Lobster responds:

cheers ericho

[Yotam & Fantasia 07]

While it didn't have a lot of weird things in it, it was still very strange. Why did you look like your face lost twenty pounds? Anyway, I was able to pick up some of the stuff that was in the previous episodes. I follow this hopefully as well as anybody else. It helps that you keep up your great animation style. Fantasia has a sister named Fantasia?

Or is that not Fantasia you (if that even is you) are talking to? I guess I just wish for more variety in your submissions. I could tell you were trying to make this realistic. Yeah, I'm not good at conversations. Man, is this series popular.

LazyMuffin responds:

My face has been skinny for the past few episodes! I explained it and all. She has a sister called Funtasia, but not the one introduced in episode 6. I'll trrrrry. thanks.

[Ragemelon]

I knew this was going to be awesome the moment I found out it was from you. While not one of your best cartoons, this is still great. I seriously thought the whole thing was going to stop when he splattered on the ground. You're too good an artist for that! It's great to see such superb animation. I think the police officer looks like a clam.

I kind of think he isn't, because a clam isn't a kind of fruit. Well, it's a kind of food at least. It's really cool to see Ragemelon come back to life like in the second Terminator movie. There's just so much creativity and good humor. Ragemelon sounds like a pokemon.

Sexual-Lobster responds:

thanks, ericho.

[Meet FR-05T]

I really wasn't that impressed by this. It's just a clip of a weird robot thing going out and looking silly. I mean, I will give you credit on how it wasn't particularly offensive or anything like that. I've seen a lot worse. It seems like this actually could be something that would suffice for a digital animation class. It just doesn't seem too appealing for this website.

There doesn't seem to be much of a message or distinction or anything. That is a funny way of spelling that word. Then again, I don't know how you can spell something with numbers in it. I hope you do well in your class. You need to have a lot more going on.

serge1290 responds:

Thanks for the constructive criticism. The idea was given to us from a selected list of planetary conditions and movement styles for a creature we had to make. I chose snowy and jumps. It is my first attempt at Flash animation and was for a class so I hope to improve. I want it here though for more ideas and this is one of the few sites I know you can share your work like this.

Still waiting on a grade for this but I'm taking this concept and using it in an app design for our next project. As for the number thing, I did it to be ironic since it's a robot...kind of like words like 1337="elite" and stuff. I don't know... Hopefully I can expand this animation sometime.

[Transit]

I really had no idea what was going on in this cartoon, but it was still great to watch! I had no idea there were so many of these NATA things that people were still working on. I don't even know what that stands for. It's weird, because you claim this is THE final entry, but there's only two in the collection. I guess this one didn't do as well as the first. I am of course digressing and should go back to how cool this is.

The colors were fantastic and it was great to watch. I couldn't help but think you were trying to put some spiritual twist on this. Was the train supposed to represent how we're losing our focus on our goals? I guess not, but it's still very interesting. No dialogue makes it so that it tells the story on its own.

Emrox responds:

A lot of the motivation behind this was to create something really visually interesting in addition to the whole allegory, so I'm glad you were able to appreciate it even though you weren't 100% sure of what it meant.
