Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[This is UNMEI]

Those pills

This is the best flash that you have ever submitted and a masterpiece in its own right. I think this is beter than some of your sillier flashes, even though this was still pretty silly by normal standards. In case anybody is wondering, the newspaper says, "Last night, the leading doctors...something". There are just so many crazy images going in the animation. The pills themselves look great superimposed as a monster or coming out of a bigger pill or whatever. It also is flawless as a music video.

Skaijo responds:

Thanks for spending the time to say this on my older, much lesser known about projects. I loved making this one especially and it's a nice thing to come back to and watch myself to psyche myself up for the day. I appreciate the love!

[The FLF Collab]

It appears to be so unrelated

When it starts off, it seems like it is not about anything related at all, as it is quite random. I should have known that this would introduce me to an entirely new song and band. There was just so much great stuff it was hard to keep up with it all. I loved the rocket that was firing down, when the guy's arms were wiggling, etc. Users like YoinK and doomshock have contributed to this site so much it is great they are all working on something so good. It was also funny to see Pac-Man shift through arts, too.

doomshock responds:

THANKSSSSSS< I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Turing Test]

Surprisingly great!

I was not interested by this much as it was just a guy communicating with a robot in a rather mundane way (especially for a robot). It definitley got better as it went on and it helps that the animation is so good. The tone is really creepy and sets the atmosphere well. This reminds me of a Creepypasta, but turned into a flash cartoon. It ends so well, you simply have no idea what is going on and probably never will. A really mysterious factor is a great way to make something scary and few flashes here do scare me.

Jimtopia responds:

It's cool to know I made a flash that actually freaks people out. Thanks for the review.

[Vinnie The Chik Costello]

Recommendable

It has been the longest time since I watched something submitted by flashcartoons.org. Anyway, I thought the best point of this was the voice work. I sincerely thought that you were just using stock sounds from some old cartoon in the beginning! It reminded me a lot of "Looney Tunes" and classic stuff like that. I was kind of disappointed that there was not a lot of real slapstick involved. I still enjoyed this because Vinnie is such a great character as he sets his personality so clearly.

lavallelee responds:

I was hesitant to upload this to NG, most of the users here like perverted stuff which I stopped making. I try to animate for family audiences with clean humor. A good example is the past few winners, cock jokes, boobs, overall rude humor which is made for preteens who laugh at it. I wont go back to that, I've grown up. My overall goal is to animate like they did in the past, all traditional, that is my dream. Thanks for the comment.

[Sombre.]

It's great to be back!

While I have not heard of you before, at least it is nice to hear Gagsy in this. I love this because it is so awesome in its surrealness and it relishes in its surrealness. The only way I could tell a person was a woman was because of the breasts. It was weird how everything in the cartoon just seem to bounce everywhere, including the breasts. The animation is gorgeous and I love the overall dark theme. It is a perfect way to understand the morbidness of the world and the human mind.

Mechabloby responds:

well i'm glad you enjoyed it. thanks for the review :]

[HALOMEN2]

A great combo

It is hard to combine "Half-Life", "Halo", "Portal", and "TANKMEN" all in one cartoon and it was not even a collab! I love how just each of these guys has their own distinct personality. You have really managed to put a story together that has a lot of laughs and great animation in only two entries. I love how every monster species has such unique designs. Every second of this, there is something going on whether it is a joke or a great action scene. I love the music that you used at the end as it is truly epic music.

thanks man!

[Vinegar Tea Party]

Worth it at the end

I admit that I was not that interested in this cartoon at first, but it helps that you had such an awesome punchline. Things like that work really well only if you set it up a lot. Anyway, the animation was as good as always and that is some great program you used. Too bad you were not able to make it on the Fourth of July, but better late than never, I guess. I like it how they are just so many firings going on in the background but the troops just do little at all. I was thinking Hitchens was the only sane guy there, but it turns out he wasn't, as they were all pretty insane.

DestructoBox responds:

Agreed, starts off a bit slow, but how can you not love a violent tea bag?

[Climb the ladder...]

Quite funny

Even if a cartoon has only one punchline, it really helps that the punchline is just so funny. It is also completely original, as I have never heard that one before. The biggest weakness about this was that the animation was just very cheesy. I do not know what kind of Flash program you were using, but I suggest you go with an updated one. At least the colors and everything synced up pretty well. With the word "suck" there are simply so many different ways you can interpret that to mean something sexual.

Well, if it isn't Ericho. My flash programs fine, I just made a shit load of rookie mistakes while animating the damn thing (frame rate and what not). Again, early work, so I don't really care enough to fix it. Thanks for the 8 anyway- a pleasant surprise none the less.
