Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[An Overlord's Day - Technofeudalism 2040]

Wow, another cartoon like this. Yeah, it's the same as the last one. The loop works great, but I hate this format. It just looks annoying. I like how this guy looks naked. I can't see anything near his crotch, though.

I like those shoes and socks he has on. He seems to have a gold body. We don't see much Cyberpunk stuff here either. I like how he talks. It's goofy and full of energy.

vezanmatics responds:

He's a golden god with socks and crocs and invisible pp!!!

The vibe took a little refining as I was working on him, at first he was a little god-emperor Patrick Bateman until I realized he should come across as way more of a repulsive dork.

[A Serf's Day - Technofeudalism 2040]

Aww, that was quite clever indeed. The best part was how well it works as a loop. I will admit I don't like this format. I want the whole screen to be covered. Anyway, this had some good animation. I really do like the concept.

I think "Futurama" already did the ads in dreams thing too. I love that robotic design. Rather, that robotic spinal cord. It fits the tone of the cartoon. We should have more dystopian stuff here.

vezanmatics responds:

I always like seeing your reviews Ericho, I've never seen a lazy one. The mobile format thing was something I tried on for size bc I wanted to hit people with this right as they're scrolling on whatever app they can't put down. Reach the most amount of people in order to make them uncomfortable, see. It seemed to work too, I got a lot of people commenting that this motivated them to put away their phones for the day. So mission accomplished! I made art!

And yea the dream ads thing was inspired by an old Futurama joke that stuck with me bc it creeped me out, I guess many people haven't seen it.

[DELTARUNE MONSTER CARTOON SPECTACULAR]

I thought this was a part of the collab. I think it didn't make the cut. I would have remembered it! It's hard to remember everything in something so big! Anyway, this was pretty fun. I wouldn't eat that! Well, I'd have to look closer.

Dang, was the cafeteria a long time ago. I once again, know little about Deltarune. I should have known he'd throw up. This was pretty enjoyable. It was dumb, but in a nice way.

bb-panzu responds:

it was but i forgot to submit it in the final submissions and i didn't realize it until they finished editing

[Tyhond’s Cute Doodles]

To be honest, I kind of thought this was a bit too cutesy. I mean, it's sincere, just not great. With that being said, this is still fun. My favorite part was when you showed the fanart. I really am impressed by someone who was able to have so much of it when you worked for a short amount of time. Well, fanart from someone not that well known.

It's not an insult. The music was delightfully cheery. It set its setting up pretty well. That's a funny sentence, "set its setting". I recognize your other cute stuff.

Tyhond responds:

Fair enough. It's pretty much a small short passion project xD Thanks though

[[Castle Crashers OVA] Green Knight ni Aimasho]

That was a pretty cute little cartoon. I admit to being kind of tired of the VHS Castle Crushers thing, but this was nice. It was pretty short, though. Still, it isn't one of those stupid YouTube shorts things. Dang, I hate those so much. The voice is pretty nice.

I don't believe in astrology. Well, Castle Crashers isn't the most realistic thing, anyway. This was a nice little thing to show off. I realize that "Dragonball" was an 80s anime. This didn't quite give off that feel.

KokoroHatsaru responds:

well I have 4 left of them, so stay tuned XD and also working on OVA 5 already

[GACHIAKUTA FAN OPENING || ガチアクタ ファンの開口部]

I had never heard of Gachiakuta before. I was thinking it was just something you made up. Turns out I was half right. It's a real manga, but about to be an anime. No wonder I've never seen an opening for it! Anyway, this is amazing.

It's just nothing but pure action the whole way through. I don't know any characters obviously, but I can get the feel. It does seem like it was inspired by a lot of other anime. Maybe "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann"? That's just used to describe anything awesome.

Zalay responds:

Thank you truly and fun fact! The creator loves Gurren Lagann!! I'm glad you enjoyed it fr and I heavily recommend giving it a read :)

[Jak Off]

Wait, this is going to be NSFW?! You could have submitted the whole thing here. I mean, we have plenty of porn here already. The best part was probably the animation. Everything just kept going on. That's hard for something only a minute long.

Well, maybe not. I don't know much about this series. Whatever it is, it looks awesome! This was just so well animated. I kind of missed Daxter.

Pokilewd responds:

thanks! :> I'll post the whole thing some day, daxter is at the end haha

[House MD's Big Day]

I have in fact seen "House". This is pretty authentic to the show. It reminds me of the last episode. The ending seemed to be a direct reference to that. I loved hearing that "Super Mario World" theme at the end. That's my favorite video game!

I still don't quite remember all the characters. Still a great show to watch. I guess maybe the designs could have been better. You rarely see "House" flashes here or anything non supernatural. That's some bad hat, Harry.

StaggerNight responds:

Thank you! I love your reviews

[Chrono Trigger 30th Anniversary]

Oh yeah, Akira Toriyama died! Everyone was praising "Dragonball Z", but people seemed to have forgotten he worked on "Chrono Trigger" too. It was wonderful to acknowledge him. He defined so many of our childhoods. Well, not as much with "Chrono Trigger". It was very authentic to the series.

I've seen lots of "Chrono Trigger" flash here. It was just a satisfying cartoon. You did a good amount of things in a short time. Yeah, it probably could have been longer. Dang, this was submitted at exactly 12 am!

Roskiart responds:

Well, to be honest I wanted to do something MUCH more elaborate and slightly longer myself, but I had to compromise out of not having enough time to do so. I'm fairly proud of what I managed given I did this in barely more than a week.

[Squidward's Suicide 2]

Well, this was certainly creative. I just had little idea as to what was going on. Spingebill looked like he had testicles under his nose. That must have been intentional. It wasn't really dark as just bizarre. The credits took up too much time.

I remember "Squidward's Suicide". The artwork really was nice. Squids don't have boobs or manboobs, whatever he had. This was certainly decent. It was just hard to get used to.

septicsebi responds:

Can you rate 5 stars?
