Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Going fo a walk]

This was pretty impressive. It's mostly because it's just a walk cycle. The animation is absolutely gorgeous! This really is a unique creature. I also love all the colors. It's hard to go into detail in a review for something so short.

Was the title intentionally meant to say, "fo"? It does seem cooler that way. The music works great too. I can see why it has these awards. Love to see a full fledged cartoon out of it.

A-Patrick responds:

"Was the title intentionally meant to say, "fo"?"
Ahaha I haven't noticed my mistake until I read your comment !
The original title was "Une petite balade", but I translated it(and forgot an "r") for Newgrounds.
And thank you for your review :)

[T.H. T.V.]

I admit I couldn't really understand this. The animation was pretty good. It was at least unique. I can always appreciate that. Maybe it hasn't aged well. I had no idea what this acronym.

I understand it now. This was in fact pretty flashy. Well, it is a flash cartoon! Glad to know you were better than most artists at this time. We all get better later.

MindChamber responds:

Whoooo
this was like.. my second flash.. still didn't know how to export sound properly.. still didn't have a tablet so these were all sketch's with the body parts drawn separately..used a vector program called streamline to get it into flash

haha good times.

[Final Fantasy Sonic X:Ep7 (Intro)]

Aww yes! I certainly remember this series! It's great to have it back! You think ten years is a long time? There's one user named Pandemoniac who hadn't submitted something in 11 years! A lot of people do that.

The website has mostly been forgotten. I loved "Sonic X"! Wait, this probably wasn't about the anime. This intro sure looks awesome! The drawn bits might be the best.

BlackDevilX responds:

Thanks man! I appreciate the support. It does seem like this site has gone down quite a bit, but nostalgia ya know?

[Bob Ross Beats the Devil Out of It 2]

It was weird to see Mr. Rogers. I mean, you just made it seem like he was the Devil. I think that's what the title implied. Of course, you depict him wonderfully. I especially love this animation style. I saw "Won't You Be My Neighbour?" too.

I assume this was made in response to that. Why else? You can of course enjoy someone as wonderful as Mr. Rogers any time. I can see why the score is so high. You can never go wrong with him.

WooleyWorld responds:

No this was planned a month or two before I heard about the documentary. Though that did spark the urge to complete in June. That never happened though because of some life events.

I like the style too. I want to do something like it but a little tighter for NBS3.

I didn't know what else to title it that wouldn't give away Mr. Rogers but also attach it to the first one so I just gave it the generic name and people can think what they like.

[Wheelman trailer]

Those were some long author comments. I think reading it took longer than the actual trailer! This was still great. I just loved the animation. You were really getting better here. My favorite of this time was still the Robocop one.

It really does kind of look CGI. Wheelman's a pretty cool name. Always great to see stuff from 2000 that holds up. It's so stylistic. I forget if this ever became a full series.

MindChamber responds:

Thanks for the love, sadly I never gave it the time it deserved. I had maybe two story outlines in, but never moved forward.. Making flash games caught my attention at the time.

[Change]

Dang, this must be the highest rated submission from the year 2000. I can certainly see why! There weren't that many great cartoons here back than. The music is beautiful. It's hard to find something with this generic a title. It does work here.

Yeah, we can all go through change. I do need to pay rent though. How is this not in some collection? It's probably the highest rated thing of 2000! Glad to know we had great stuff back then too.

Narcissus responds:

Thank you for your kind words. That was quite a hard time for me back then. I'm hoping to get back into amateur animation some day. Fourteen years since my last submission is way too long. :/

[Wheelman(preview)]

How did this not win an award of some kind? This is the best submission I've seen for 2000 so far! I guess most people thought it was too short. It was still enjoyable for me. You were one of the first people here. It's great to see where everyone started.

The animation is great! I wish this had in fact become a series. Wait, did it? It's hard to keep track of everything. Well, a 3.42 is still a fairly high score for 2000.

MindChamber responds:

Haha I love you man,.. but this is very corny and pretty terrible.. though the oulines for the actual series could've been something.. ahh well

[TooF The Line]

I was very impressed by this. It seemed the D stood for dick. I didn't get the joke at first. I guess the animation could be better. I just love how relentless this is. It just gives giving gag after gag.

Most of them are good. This might have been the last in the series. Glad to know it lasted here that long. It's my favorite of the Toof movies. I just realized it's spelled "foot" backwards.

MACception responds:

If there's one episode from this series I can actually stand, it's this one. Probably because, like you said, the pace is up. If one joke falls flat, it's not too long until the next one. Glad you liked it!

[12 Years a Lock]

For something so short, it was pretty funny. I remember watching "12 Years A Slave". This is the first time I've ever seen that directly referenced or at least as far as I know. The animation is quite nice. I love you, AubergineLock! You're my favorite lock!

The voices were funny. Well, they're not really voices. The animation was quite nice. It's always great when great movies are referenced! This was fine for a quick laugh.

AubergineLock responds:

It happum on one ah dem zipadeedoodah days.
