Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The worst she can say is no… (Inugami Korone animated)]

Wow, that was bonkers! I'm glad it won Daily Feature. Many people would forget it around Pico Day. I still remember! I was impressed at how silly it was. I mean, the animation was so goofy!

The worst thing was being killed. I should've seen that coming. I thought she said, "Are you s**tyis? The lines were really silly too. Seems like a demented Valentine's Day submission.

noinimble responds:

IT WON DAILY FEATURE????

[An Inusual Bitrhday (Pico day 2024)]

I can see why it took so long for you to animate. I had little idea as to what was going on. They were going into this place with all these different versions of them! It was hard to tell who was who. I love the title. It definitely was unusual!

Hey, my birthday's coming up too! This really did celebrate all things Pico. My favorite part was probably the knife fight. You have to be good at animating stuff like that. Cake is something we should all fight over.

KiugaVanHollow responds:

I really appreciate your words! Oh! and happy birthday too! Hahaha, I'm aware that my brainstorming may confuse people a lot, however, I really appreciate that you enjoyed it! thank you so much for that!

[Pico in Wildwood, NJ 🛹]

I had to look to see whether it was a game or not. It was still well animated. I think the bird appearing was something different. It needed a lot more variety. It was just Pico skateboarding. It was mostly a gif.

I've never heard of Wildwood before. I thought that was an eggplant in the title. It was just a skateboard. I know what eggplants are used for in testing. So should you.

Luis responds:

It was a gif. Technology hasn’t advanced where you can attach music and sound effects to a gif.

[Newgrounds Sega Saturn Collab]

That Newgrounds joke at the very end was great. It's awesome how it was at the VERY end. I had no idea these characters were even from Sega games. I was expecting Sonic to appear. "Mortal Kombat" is owned by Playstation, not Sega. They're different, right?

This was very bizarre. A little hard to enjoy with how incomprehensible it was, but still quite good. It was still quite a unique collab. I'd think a collab would be bigger. That is quite a good preloader.

Anonymous-Frog responds:

The scene is actually based on "Virtua Fighter 2". Name probably got mixed up.

PS: Mortal Kombat was owned by Midway, later sold to Warner Bros.

[The Matrix Collab | Short Film | Dial-Up Studios]

When I first saw this, I thought it would be the entire movie re-animated! I was then thinking there'd be no way, as that would be too long. It was still great to see everyone together like this. I was expecting everyone to be credited. I lost count of the scenes after 15. You still get so much done.

It was nice to see the live-action bits too. A little bit here is nice every now and then. It's been awhile since we've seen Matrix related stuff here. Maybe we need some references to "The Matrix Resurrections". Yes, that could have been better. It was still better than Revolutions.

WesMakowski responds:

sadly this wasn't the full movie, but there will be a vote on our Patreon in a few months to determine which of our "Short Film" will become our 4th full length collab film. Our previous Mean Girls Short collab will be on the roster as well.

In the mean time, we're working on our 2nd film, El Dorado Redialed (full collab film of "The Road to El Dorado") so watch out for that. Before that, we'll have two more short films coming very soon. The Matrix is an iconic film that only ages better with time. Thanks for your comments :)

[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.
