Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lockday 2K24]

Twenty years? It's been going on that long, huh? I wasn't expecting to see your butt. I didn't even know what an aubergine was! You're my favorite Lock yet I never looked it up. I knew it was like an eggplant or I guess it is an eggplant.

I like how profane this is. It's nice to hear the Locks speak normally. You rarely hear that. This is what pubs are made for. It's more like a Saint Patrick's Day celebration.

AubergineLock responds:

Wetherspoons is the epitome of British culture.

[DEATH BATTLE: Spy vs. Annoying Orange]

Wow, this was hilarious! I am in fact a fan of DEATH BATTLE! I know how divisive this series can get. Seriously, people have gotten really mad at this series. It's great how you mocked it. I knew that Spy would win. Oh yeah, I remember MUGEN.

That makes a lot of sense. It was great how stupid this animation was. It's just a great spoof for how dumb it presents itself as. This is indeed the format. Why wouldn't he just eat an orange?

tysm for watching pls subscribe to my channel

[MISSING HOME]

It seemed more like it was about depression than about being homesick. This was still pretty effective. My favorite part was how you could see right through them. It's a good metaphor. Maybe it was about stress. We can relate to these things.

We can relate to these things. I think any being with long appendages is the Slender Man. Now we're into the Backrooms. I've never seen flashes like those around here. This is still nice.

CybeR responds:

Thank you :) I appreciate the comment! The title was named after the title of the song, not necessarily about the animation content haha. But you're spot on with that!

[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.

CrimsonKero 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.
