Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Frodozers Vs. Clock Day 2]

Happy Clock Day

You get points because it was just great to see those awesome sprites. While I never played that stuff when I was a kid, that has some of the best use of sprites I have ever seen. The main problem was that it was just the same thing over and over. I do not understand why this "Fro" group is popular, because none of the members even have pictures on their icons. I guess you did not refer to this itself as a spam flash, at least not in the author comments. You should have more than just an infinite loop.

[Halo Reach - Clay Trailer]

Why won't you respond to my review?

This was fun to watch because the claymation was good and the idea is pretty original. The blue monster in this looked more like Chaos from "Sonic The Hedgehog" than anything else. The graphics that showed the screen and everything were even better than the actual cartoon! I think you may be the first person in Newgrounds in history to win a Daily 2nd Place and an Underdog of the Week award! Watching this, I can understand how that happened, although it is hard to put in reviews. Hopefully the full flash will be great.

mattuiop responds:

lol thx. blue mosters are colled elites btw.
its nothing to do with sth though.

thanks for pointing it out!

[This girl I like..]

So awesome

This had some of the most impressive animation I have ever seen in a mundane flash like this! It seems like you might have been influenced by "Scott Pilgrim" or something. The song itself is so hilarious so you do not have to apologize for it being too short. I just loved the way these characters moved around and changed their expressions and everything! I am so glad I was able to review this before it left the front page!

JoelOnToast responds:

Ahah, thanks a bunch.

[Super Mario Bros. V.2]

What a surprise!

I was thinking this would feature Marichu (he's better than Sonichu at least) but it did not. From the start, it was still very fun especially with the Koopa cursor icon. I originally thought this was just going to be something short and dumb as it seemed to stop after Mario got his mushroom. You did a great job building up to a tension to an awesome climatic fight! Pointers always make the hardest enemies, particularly with all the guys coming out everywhere. It was a great tribute to the original level in the Super Mario Bros. game and all around great tribute to Mario.

Pienkaito responds:

I can't believe, that anyone would ever put Marichu and Sonichu in one sentence.

Hey, not bad!

It is still funny to see how many people helped you on something so short. The animation was really good in this one and I especially liked the background and the blurry vision and everything. I know you are not trying to be racist, as people on Newgrounds should know by now that is supposed to be funny. The clocks on his left and right look the same to me. This could have been better with some more jokes and a bit more length. The best part was probably when he said "Negrogrounds" in the subtitles.

dx5231 responds:

Well, thank you. Actually, I was the only one who worked on this animation. Both clocks on the sides are the same, yeah. Some people try to take stuff way too seriously on ng, so I had to put that thing up.

I only worked on this for a day, it would have been longer if I worked more on it.

Thanks for the review.

[UMK3 New Fatalities]

Quite good

"Mortal Kombat 3" was one of my favorite games when I was a kid. This was a good tribute, even if I was expecting some more creative things like those made by Randy-Solem. The main point is that all the sprites are done well and the feel is just the same of the original game. My favorite fatality would have to be Ermac. It just shows how many ways you can kill someone and result in them getting blown up. I noticed that the game always seemed to show numerous ribcages and skulls when one guy was dead, but you did well in avoiding that.

MaldivirDragonwitch responds:

Why, thank you. :)
I was either too lazy, or too clear minded when I thought about showing a million heads, feet, ribcages, etc...

[LL - Guardian Hero]

Happy LockDay!

I am glad you at least managed to get into the "Lock Day 2009" collection. Of course, this year's Clock Day did not really have that many flashes with the highest ratings either. Yes, it's me again and I think this was one of your better flashes. The animation was good, especially with how you contrasted with the sprite appearances of the enemies. I am unsure as to why you sometimes call yourself "TailsClock". I can not hold it against you forever about hating my voice as you do make some good stuff.

Tails-Lock responds:

This probably is my best movie, and yet it still sucks. I thought I'd be fine so long as i keep slowly getting better liek this, but my most recent movie was just such a step backwards. Also I call myself Tails Lock and Clock because I am both those people. Full name is Tails Clock Lock. Also sorry I was so mean about your voice, I can't help but be really offensive most of the time. Thanks for the nice review.

[Miss Dynamite 24]

Very funny

I think this has some of the best voicework and best animation as this series goes on. I especially like how Darkie sounds so childlike, yet is also an assassin. There are so many funny moments like Eva getting shocked over the furry exploding. The best part might be when Eva reacted to the drug by Darkie saying nice things to her. Of course, it was another great moment when she got back to normal. I actually went up on Wikipedia and looked up "Miss Dynamite" and I was depressed that your article had apparently been taken down.

Sirkowski responds:

That's why Eva was pissed off.

[Da Jazz Method]

Got a few scars!

I do not think I have heard of you before, but this was truly great! Seeing as how the song was an audio submission here on Newgrounds, I now understand why I did not recognize it. This was just great to watch, because the animation is so great. It completey lacks in plot, as it is a demo reel, but everything just fits together so well. This is seriously something that a professional animator would be working on. It even seems as though you used a different program than Flash Player to make this.

JazLyte responds:

Nope, this is 100% flash :) Thanks for the great review, glad you enjoyed it.
