Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Walking Derp]

Well, here is my first review on this brand new system! I should have known better about what it was parodying since I am a fan of the show. It took me awhile to figure out that he was saying, "Sofia", especially with how he seemed like he was saying "So fat" at first. The funniest part was probably when he ran out of batteries at the end. I look forward to this show coming back this Sunday night. It's nice to watch a parody of something I am familiar with.

I believe that was Sofia at the end near the barn if the show is to be believed. The animation wasn't too good or bad, it was just really goofy. Given the non-sequitor nature of this cartoon, that makes sense. I don't know much else about you, but I am glad you managed to get front page. I'm still getting used to the new design.

DoomedChi responds:

Thanks for the review, I should hire a writer next time I animate something, everything I submit seems kinda random at best.
I really don't know how this one managed to get frontpaged but I'm thankful for it.
About the new design it's gonna take some time until we get used to it (not being able to see the amount of reviews, a numerical score among other things its kind of weird).

[MadSeth X-Mas Special 3]

Just that?

I'm sorry, it's just that I have been so used to seeing Madness stuff with more action in it. I can't hate it, because there's nothing that bad about it. It is certianly not something I would recommend, but at least the animation is good. I think that is how the movie "Silent Night, Deadly Night" started out. In case anyone's wondering, the body count is two. That has to be the lowest body count for any Madness tribute I've ever seen.

I can only suggest that the next part have more action in it. I haven't seen the other entries in this, so it's hard to judge. Why is it called the third in the series if the cartoon itself indicates that it took place before 2010? Well, I hope you had a great Christmas season, I guess. It's great how Madness and Christmas always gets high ratings.

Rapheus responds:

Never seen "Silent Night, Deadly Night".
And I've already broken the 'Lowest Madness Tribute Death Count' record twice: Tale of Lambert with one death and Mother's Day Massacre with zero deaths.

And this is kind of a prequel to the MadSeth Christmas animations. I'd suggest you watch the other two for some grounding. -Plus they have higher death counts.

Regardless, thank you for the lengthy review.

[Rats on Cocaine - Ep # 4]

So awesome

I think the funniest thing about this is probably the joke at the beginning. There's nothing like a character complaining that they're not really in a cartoon. This is something where you really have to appreciate the animation. Everyone just looks so wonderfully designed in this and it seems like something straight out of an abstract art painting. The voices are also fantastic. The male rat especially sounds exactly like what a rat in that situation would look like.

It's great to see a funny cartoon that has so much going on. The jokes are so unpredictable. I guess it's not as good as #10, but still a great episode. I like looking at all the detail in this cartoon, like all the math formulas the rat writes down. It seems like the female rat might have gotten in the fourth wall when the obscure character came.

ApocalypseCartoons responds:

meta thanks!

[Friendship is Magic Bitch]

That was awesome!

This is easily your best submission and it really works well because it's so consistently hilarious. The animation is absolutely flawless. It's probably my favorite MLPFIM parody I've seen on this website! I just love how every frame just seems to be showing these guys exaggerating their body movements and jumping all over the place. Every body part is just going off in the zaniest directions. I thought it would end after the first guy.

I am SO glad it kept going on, because it kept up how funny it is. It's weird how people make fun of Princess Celestia like that, when she's only been mischeivous a few times. It, of course, works wonderfully for this hilarious masterpiece. You just have no idea what's going to happen next. You are a great credit to all bronies and everyone who's a fan of insanity. You never let down, friend!

Skaijo responds:

Thank you very much for all of your kind words!

[ClockDay08:The Chase of B]

Not much going on

It didn't really seem like anything special, because it was just a guy being chased by the "B" over and over. At least it's nice to know that Benny Hill theme never gets old. There could have been a lot more detail like color instead of just the actual red "B". Of course, this was intended as a spam flash. How come the flash I submitted didn't get a high rating like these others do? I guess I should have made it more about Clock Day.

BTW, it's deleted now, so don't bother looking it up. At least the voice was pretty spot on. Well, it wasn't technically a voice, it was just created with that Speakaphone thing. As a short, very silly flash, this truly does succeed in what it sets itself out to do. It's funny how no matter what the quality is, you still have that awesome loading screen.

Haggard responds:

Yeah, if you want your flash to succeed on Clock Day it should at least contain the letter B, haha!

[MadSeth 5: Enervation]

Happy MD to you too!

While it's been awhile since the day, this is still a good video to watch. I especially like how all of the designs were original. It was weird how you said it was thirty seconds earlier, but it seemed longer than that. I guess my only complaint is that there could have been more action. As these stories don't have much plot, it was still nice of you to include a recap. You really didn't know what was going to happen with this.

The rocket itself looked kind of weird and stood out from the other things. I lost count of the, well, body count. I think this may be the first Madness flash I've seen where there was hospital staff. With all the crazy stuff that goes on in these flashes, you'd think there would be more of those guys. You could just have some more action.

Rapheus responds:

Great review!

-Yeah, I timed the 'Ganondork killing Seth' scene and it came out to about 30 seconds.
-I agree with the action, It's kind of slow. I'll chalk that up to laziness on my part. :/
-Even I had no idea what was going to happen this episode. I turned out different that the storyboard.
-Yeah, I Googled a rocket and traced it in flash, I'm not that good artistically.
-Of course they need medics! Who else is gonna clean up the messes? Haha.

Thanks again for the review, man! :D

[Dark Souls General]

Great stuff

I still think the best thing about this is the logo at the beginning. It's wonderfully well done. It's great that you can do so much good experimenting with such a nice set of animation for everything. I didn't quite get most of the jokes because I don't think I've played this game. This reminded me of the Awesome series. While not as good as that, it really worked because it was just so great to see so many jokes going on.

It was fairly long for a parody. It really feels like you put a lot of hard work and effort into it. While it was fairly hard to follow, there was defintley a nice amount of detail put into it. I also really liked how the voices worked so well. It gives you a great sense that there was tons of nice emotion put into this well done parody.

ScottFalco responds:

Hey thanks man! And yes I love my logo, it's one of my favorite pieces I've done. Glad you enjoyed the animation

[Love on the Cliff]

That was weird

Well, first the guy runs his son over the cliff and then they appear on the cliff? I guess I shouldn't try to make sense out of something comical like this. It actually looked like it was going to be something serious at first. I had no idea it was going to be about being gay. You should expect to see that on the Internet, of course. The music really set the mood off with how it was so pleasant while the humor was so dark.

That guy was so insane, I'm glad his pain lived on at the end. It seems like he was beating his son up and then fell off the cliff. This was a weird cartoon because the scenario was so mundane yet it got insane so quickly. I of course love it and the voices really show how funny it is. The animation, while not great, isn't bad.

CooliSushi responds:

Lol my humor is weird but thanks for the review :D
