Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Animation is Hard.]

That was quite awesome. He mentioned an evil monster, but I thought he was referring to the animator. Indeed, he was! I liked how the quality went down. They did something similar in "The Amazing World Of Gumball". The second "Phineas And Ferb" movie did that too.

This animation reminded me of Eddsworld. That was quite influential. The animation was uh, good. Dang, have there been some high rated stuff I haven't seen lately. Almost everything here is a short film.

haytendo responds:

thank you so much!

[SquidSacks - Narcissist]

Wow, I loved this! I guess it will just be forgotten, but you still have me around. The best part was probably how morbid it all was. These designs were just so ridiculous. Everyone had their dicks out. It was rather casual.

I guess it was all just a dream. The music is great too. The lack of color worked quite well here. I've never seen your work before, but I'm glad to be introduced to it. The sketchy details worked wonderfully.

SquidSacksArt responds:

Wow, thanks for the glowing review! Whist you're probably right that it'll get lost in the sea of the internet, I'm glad I could at least provide you with a couple minutes of enjoyment for you. Thank you and have a good night!

[Mean Girls Collab | Short Film | Dial-Up Studios]

Oh well, this was rather odd. I thought this would be the whole movie. I mean, the Spongebob Movie Collab came out with no warning! It was amazing to see these different styles. My favorite was probably the giant monster/giant robot one. I know I saw one segment before.

I didn't know there'd be one segment for just a three minute cartoon! Well, I guess there are far shorter collabs. It's just out of the ordinary for a re-animated collab. I'm not a girl, but I can associate with this. I wasn't homeschooled or anything, just awkward.

WesMakowski responds:

Sorry this didn't meet you expectations. The Spongebob Movie Collab had many trailers before the release so not sure if it came out of nowhere...

Regardless, in May 2024 there will be a vote on our Patreon to make one of our following short collabs into a feature length, so if you want a full version of Mean Girls then you voice your choice! :)

[Elder-Rain Cafe // Strawberry Cake]

That was a pretty good cartoon. I didn't think it was great. Still, it was fairly cute. That's all it was really intended to be. Cake is what the Internet was made for. The colors were nice too.

The simplistic art style seemed to work. I liked how the cake looked. Maybe it could have been more detailed. It's still fine the way it was. Kind of looks like a late Valentine's Day submission.

Tyhond responds:

Thank you! ^-^ Yeah, it was my first animation so I was just touching the water. I do it under the format of Sticker Animation where it's animated Sticker and not a full keyframe animation :)

I can see that but it's just a wholesome day for some Strawberry Cake! ^-^

[Resident Evil Toot]

Wow, this was great! It looked like something made by LazyMuffin. You know, with the black bead eyes. Then again, the voices didn't match. I loved the CGI bit at the end. I wasn't expecting a big explosion.

Those work in comedies. Banana guns are hilarious too. It was just very fun and I'm glad it wasn't too short. I loved her going crazy as it went on. Toot's a funny word too.

VikingJam responds:

Thanks! o.O i dont think i've heard of them but i might have seen some of their stuff b4.
oh the bead eyes i stole from Adventure Time :3
hhehe abrupt explosion ending = genz humour.

kid screaming jill lol.

[Pokemon Colosseum: A New Adventure in the Shadows]

This was wonderful! My only complaint was that it was a little too short. Otherwise, it was amazing. It's always great to see such cute little pokemon. They still have that fighting spirit! Aww yes, back in the days when I could remember all of their names.

It gets harder all the time. It seems more like an intro than a music video. Well, music videos can be short, I guess. It's not an AMV. I guess I got those definitions mixed up.

LuckoDaStars responds:

An intro can still be an animated music video. It doesn't discriminate.

[DND Animated - The drow rogue who robbed the party blind (totally happened, guys)]

I love how silly their arms look. I mean, this guy looks like he only has bones and no actual limbs. I know about the gameplay of "Dungeons And Dragons" pretty well. I've just seen so many parodies of it! The animation made it so funny. It just came off as so personal.

I'm glad to have come by this. I noticed it's always DND, not DAD. I guess "Dungeons 'N Dragons" is just a cooler name. It's nice you put all that text up. Still can't beat "8 Bit D&D".

ZedrinBot responds:

For me it's also cause typing an ampersand takes 5% more brain processing power and gives me a head hurty
i gotta look down and remember "wait it's shift + what number?"

[the Perfect Gift - TFPS]

It's nice to see where this series started. I can tell that Ed is based on a Dalek. Well, he's very similar to one. I can now see that this takes place on another planet. I somehow missed this after all these years. It's great to see this animation.

I still find Kyra as a more interesting character. Well, this does technically focus on her. I like the colors a lot too. I see more potential for this series. I'm glad to know the episodes aren't the same.

HOwLiNG-MAdFoxHatter responds:

So glad you liked it : D

There were a lot of challenges with that first episode, like working around the fact Kyra did not have a voice casted yet.

[Cafe Rush - TFPS]

This was a very nice little cartoon. It was relatively mundane. Well, as mundane as a cartoon about talking animals can be. I appreciate the beautiful animation. This is something I bet most people in the cafe industry can associate with. I do work in food service.

I don't actually serve or prepare the food. I just wash dishes. I loved that hypnotizing guy. These characters had such cool designs. Oh, they're aliens!

HOwLiNG-MAdFoxHatter responds:

Glad you enjoyed it~

This episode pretty much was an excuse for me to have some fun and cut loose on alien designs, so had a lot of fun there x3

[Mean Girls Reanimated Collab - My Scene]

Wow, "Mean Girls" is getting a collab now? I loved the animation in this. It's been a long time since I saw that movie. I did see it, right? It was great to see so much movement everywhere. The colors were nice and bright too.

That white joke was great. I don't know if this is the exact audio used. It sounds too cartoonish. Again, it has been awhile since I saw that movie. There was just so much going on.

HisCoconutGun responds:

The audio is all original, it was not that aggressive X3
