Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

[Enjoy Your Heaven]

Great as expected

I thought it was strange the guys had halos in the beginning and then of course I remembered the title. This is so good I was kind of hoping it would turn into a full series. I love the animation in this and some of it reminds me of Jhonen Vasquez. I like how it kept flashing back to things "2 X" before. I was almost waiting for it to say "2 Minutes Earlier" and then the cartoon could simply start all over. You do not have to be ashamed by the quality or file size as it is too good of a cartoon to really care about these things.

curtiSmith responds:

Actually I had originally wanted this to be a series, maybe I'll return to it in the future in more detail. Thanks for your vote :D

[Mr Pickles &the Bum Kitty]

Beautiful

It helps that I love cats and I of course love you and all that you have submitted to this website. It was weird how the cat was green and started out as a fart (?). It also seemed to be more like a bear than a cat when it became a giant. I see that you were experimenting with something new, with the obvious sketchy background (well, I think it is the worst time you tried it). I guess it might have some deeper meaning, but I can just appreciate it for beign wonderful. It even seems like a more mature thing than your actual stuff.

TheBoogley responds:

deeper meaning? more mature? ha! XD
I love you Ericho! :D

[Hanks 4rth of July card!!]

It is flashy

I was interested in finding out about a 4th of July flash being submitted today. It seems like, above all the other holidies, the 4th of July has the least number of movies/stuff about it. I have to give you credit on creating a very authentic looking Hank. A firecracker is one of the few weapons that the series has never used. I think what really brings this down is that you mention you were too lazy to do an animation. You should be glad that you are at least celebrating the fourth of July here.

huh... thanks for the tips and compliments

[Shattered Heaven Act 3.3]

Very impressive

I do not know why, but while I can always recognize Rina-chan's voice, I think she is getting better all the time. Anyway, there was really no action in this one, but that was just fine. In addition to Rina-chan, there were a ton of great voices in this and I have to give compliments to the voice actors for it. It is a great way to flesh out the characters and I think this has one of the highest number of voice actors I have ever seen! I would love to be a part of this, but everyone says my voice is bad. The animation is also decent and it all builds up to a good story.

AdamTilford responds:

Yeah, I know, this one is just a passing scene. Though it's all part of the full episode which is done now, btw. I haven't posted scenes 5-8 on NG yet. It's only been done for about a week.

The complete episode, can be found here. http://azure-productions.com/sh_act3_
release.html

I will be posting the rest of them on NG this weekend. But when you watch the full episode, it really doesn't drag. Haha. I realized that by splitting up the scenes and posting them on NG makes the series seem like it's dragging because of the time between each individual scene.

Anyway, yeah the cast of this is pretty ridiculous. But being based loosely off my novel series there is a lot of characters.

Well, pm me or email me. I can always use extras. Since for the moment all the main characters have been casted.

[Tragic Story Of Fatboy]

He is fat

I mind that to be the exact same thing as the other flash that you submitted. I guess I have to at least give this a "1" rating, because it was apparently made in the tribute of a real person who died. I think you should have included Dean's picture and not Ryan's (if you are even truthful on that). The animation is really lazy on this, especially with how he eats the burger. He is still holding the burger up even when he has eaten the side he is holding up. You also should work on the audio as there is little enthuaism in your voice.
