Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

["The Worst"]

Wow, that is one of the most absolutley insane things I have ever seen in my life! Congradulations on giving Tom Fulp his pick for best cartoon of all time! This was when the cartoon was just at judgement too! I loved how the animation was freaking gorgeous in this. It's too bad the same can't be said about the people in the show. When they said, "worst", I thought they were referring to the quality.

I'm pretty sure that by "worst" you meant the most disgusting and disturbing show on Earth. It seems like you used a whole different Flash program to create this! It looks like one of those mutants was some turtle human hybrid. It's so perplexing it's hard to even describe. I appreciate you truly bringing something new and amazing to this website! You're going to go far kid!

Sherbalex responds:

i figure 90% of the work was done in Flash MX, the other 10% was in Flash CS3, and much of what was done in CS3 wasnt really drawing, just clicking buttons/moving sliders and stuff.

youre the third person to say it was a turtle thing. theres probably something interesting to note here about ones perception of light/shadow/form

[Teenage Mutant Turtles]

The best thing about this is probably how you used clips from the show. It seemed like you did go for a lot of cheap gags. There was this one time where they just mentioned they weren't ninjas and that was pretty much it. At least the animation was nice. Well, it wasn't really nice in the strictest sense, it was enjoyable with how stupid it was. The worst thing is that it would mess up the theme song.

Dang, that is one of the best theme songs I've ever heard. This is causing me more and more to hate Michael Bay. It's pretty amusing to see how stupid these guys look. I don't think the pizza ever got to Sunday. It's not often I see a pizza in seven slices.

Jae responds:

lol

[Kinect Rage]

Woah, that was one bizarre cartoon. For the most part, I guess I'm going to say I enjoyed it. It was just completely insane with how ridiculous it was. You said you couldn't draw and I guess that's technically true, but man, do these cheesy drawings sure make it look good! It still looks like there was a lot of effort put into the animation. The guy with the gray hair looks like Sephiroth.

It's just funny to see how stupid these morons look. It's hard to feel much sympathy when they get beat up, because it's so fun to watch them do that! I know little about the Kinect. I guess I'm glad I'm keeping up with recent video game technology. There could have been some better colors, but that was besides the point. The point is this was insane and good.

rambojoe responds:

Yeah, have always like reading your reviews here on NG.

[Stick War 2 Intro]

It seems like it's been awhile since you submitted something. In fact, it really has been too long. I love this cartoon and think it would be great in its own right even if there was no game to it! The funny thing is that I was a fan of the original Stick War and even wrote online about it. I like how there's so much depth put into the characters. You would think it would be hard to give stick figures that much depth.

We here at Newgrounds have of course shown we can do anything with stick figures. The voice acting was great in this too. I really like how you're getting ready to tell an epic story. I hope the game makes it onto this website. If not, I will probably play it somewhere else eventually.

CRAZY-King-JAY responds:

Thanks - Yes we will deff have an offline version on newgrounds

[Hank Hanky: Your Cat]

It's interesting to see all kinds of stuff you can work on. This was weird, because it had a lot of dialogue. I don't know if that's actual audio you used, but it probably is. Anyway, I actually used to have somewhat of a problem myself only now he just bites me, so I highly doubt he's trying to give me a high five. We had him declawed. I really just love cats too much to replace him with a dog.

The animation was really good too. I liked how everything seemed to be moving so fast and how there were rarely repeating movements. The live-action clips were also pretty cool. It's a weird little submission, but it's nice. I appreciate how it made more sense than some other weird stuff I've seen.

captainmcross responds:

Yep, it's real people calling in and asking questions.

[Stickman Can't Fight 2]

I thought this was good, but not good to the point where it has this high rating. What's good about this is how there are so many art styles. I wish there could have been more! This is a pretty nicely done cartoon, because you did little snippets of art shift here and there. The music was pretty good too. I must have gotten into some glitch because I kept hearing this commercial the first time I played it.

It worked fine when I refreshed it, of course. I like how everyone's a good sport in this. It probably doesn't make it any less painful for the players, though. I could see the fist on your face joke coming from a mile away. Good enough to recommend to stick fans.

guitan11 responds:

thanks for the review. if you think that this one is good, check out the other ones! and please do recommend to stick fans ;)

[Tootsie Roll Dysfunction]

Woah, I had no idea there was such a deranged cartoon as this out there! I freaking fell in love with this cartoon because of how insane it was. The animation is completely flawless, there's always something going on in every single frame. It's simply hilarious that the owl has gone so insane from being asked that so many times. The voice acting is also completely flawless. I especially love how exaggerated everything is.

It's cool to see how these heads and faces just spin around everywhere. In case you're wondering, I have actually myself found out how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop! I did it one morning when I had nothing else to do. I counted 1,376 licks! Of course, I imagine that it varies from person to person depending on what kind of tongue they have. I love how it didn't end with the owl the first time.

FatKidWitAJetPak responds:

Im glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it is indeed very exaggerated. We really wanted to turn the old commercial into a deranged farce against something seemingly innocent. We wanted it to be twisted and unique. I think Sh0t-Down and I made a very good team, since we are both batshit crazy. My friend Alex and I laughed at every idea when crafting this strange world around this strange kid who asks a strange question to strange animals. We were really proud of the outcome. Thanks for your comments!

[Knife Dance]

I can ALWAYS count on you to come up with new and ridiculous cartoons! The best thing about this was at the end when the one guy gave it a perfect "10". I just loved that because I like the notion that this did have a happy ending even though his partner was stabbed. It really makes you care for the characters. Even someone as silly as this should have that. The timing in this cartoon was just great too.

Dang, those are some pink nipples. You really know how to make those stand out in a guy. I was a bit disappointed that this didn't actually have people fighting with knives. It did, however, have a guy being stabbed at the end, so that was good enough. Congradulations on yet another Daily Feature!

Sexual-Lobster responds:

thanks, ericho.
