Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sublo & Tangy Mustard #9 - Bad Guys]

I was very impressed by this episode. I admit this still isn't really my thing. I still loved it when they had the dance off. You'd think it would get more violent. The animation was quite good. I'm starting to get used to the characters more.

Okay, it's easy to deduce Sublo is the submarine. Well, the guy in the submarine costume. The voices are very good too. I admit to rooting for the characters a bit. They shouldn't have named their restaurant "Subpar'.

Aaron-Long responds:

Thanks Ericho! Even if it's not quite your taste, it's good to hear there's some aspects you enjoyed about this one.

[Sonic Seconds: Volume 1]

It kind of makes you wonder why you guys didn't just make another "Sonic Shorts". This does in fact allude to them. You know with the Dancing Robotnik. My favorite bit was with Sonic hitting the gold rings. I should have thought of that much earlier. The music was great.

It's too bad the credits were so long. They took up too much of the movie! It's still very fun. Everyone has such a unique style of animation. I love how different we all are.

CelestOrion responds:

We're gonna have the credits cut down in the future episodes due to last minute changes and schedules on this. Shorts is definitely still being made, though! This is just made by other team members who can't tackle longer animations right now! Glad to hear you still enjoyed it!

[Monkeyspank]

At first I thought this would credit Wonchop. Now I realize this is just an insult to him. Well, he's funnier than you anyway! I still really loved this cartoon. It wasn't as focused on sex on your other stuff. The animation was great.

Yeah, those pornos exist. I see porn versions of everything here. I liked Pwnchop being killed. That's what he gets for pooping everywhere! The stealing bit was great too.

Cycon responds:

Backstory: So, at the time, I was spending a lot of time talking with Joanime and other artists that were releasing content. Rumor had gotten around about some kind of conflict over original art between Jo and Ben, something I actually knew NOTHING about. Cliques and informal alliances were also kind of forming at that time and becoming toxic. It was like a high school drama. Basically, I heard one side of the story and created this in response, thinking I was "backing-up" my friend, Jo, while also trying to be cheeky about it. It was a pretty immature move on my part.

I don't know what other content came out that may have contributed to the mounting dramas, but I can tell you that after I put this out, the toxicity intensified and there was a divide in the community. There were petty little arguments in comment sections on artist pages on deviantart, sheezy, and NG. Probably other places. Egos were huge and fragile, myself included.

The whole "great divide" continued and I don't remember it getting better, honestly. Gerkinman was one of the few people that tried to do some good by putting the One Love collaboration together, which was more of a message to the artist community than it was anything else.

I can't remember if I ever directly apologized to Ben for mocking him and stirring up drama, but he proved himself as an artist and kept going.

He's definitely not funnier than me, though. I didn't even know he did comedy. ;)

[Avoiding Blamnation (HNT)]

The first review in four years! I'm surprised as this was so popular. I thought it might be something snarky at first. Instead, it was really relevant. If only I knew how to properly use Flash. This is the most viewed Lock flash ever!

Well, except for "The Fight For Glorton". Then again, that is a game. I guess it's not really a flash. Thank you for being so polite. I know about what stuff to blam.

JujubeLock responds:

Glad you liked this dead format animation

[Rad-ish (Less Than Rad)]

I was confused as to how this wasn't a game. The other thing I reviewed for this Pixel Day was one. Well, I guess there's no rule. I appreciate the good pixel work. It was a pretty random cartoon. I guess that's good!

I'm not into radishes. Have I ever even had one? They don't seem that good. The music was nice. It's good for a quick watch I guess.

gatekid3 responds:

I suppose this concept would work for a small game, perhaps if i ever can get more into coding this is the first thing i will tackle. I myself have never had a radish either...but i love puns more than anything. I'm glad you think the music was at least tolerable enough in short bursts, my fear was that it would be ear grating (I listened to it enough times while making it and the animation to where it sounded decent enough).

Thank you for your words.

[Fernando and the Disk of Chaos]

It's great to see you again! You'll just never run out of ideas. I love the animation as always. I've never heard of psychic dogs before. Points for originality! The giant dildo balloon was pretty amusing.

I feel bad for not paying more attention. I think this might be the longest video in the series. There really is an ongoing story. It's still funny. Rainbows are cool too.

Sexual-Lobster responds:

cheers Ericho.

[Butterfingering]

Okay, that was probably the best cartoon I've seen all month. I'm blown away by how well it's animated. Yes, I'm familiar with those Butterfinger commercials. It seems like there aren't that many Simpsons tributes. At least not good ones.

It's easily the best I've ever seen here. Dang, is that title dirty. I'm glad it didn't actually show that. Call me a fan of yours! That's actually my favorite candy bar! Maybe that's why I like this so much.

IvanAlmighty responds:

YOU! YOU ARE THE DEMOGRAPHIC I WANTED TO HIT!! I'm glad there's people familiar with those old commercials that also enjoyed this! Thank you!

[GMSU Christmas Schmucktacular]

I had missed GMSU. I couldn't find it for the past week. I liked seeing these guys back. It was great how they actually went to a different location. Merry Christmas! I'm glad the alien didn't go on forever with his song.

I liked the montage of the deceased celebrities. I actually couldn't recognize most of them. There were so many! The Me Too hashtag women deserved their Person Of The Year award. This might be your longest episode ever.

threebrain responds:

hahaha tanks! Merry Christmas to you too. Yeah last week I had a cold and lost my voice :-X haha I tried to do a GMSU on Tuesday and my voice was so bad haha. Oh and then I messed up my Newgrounds password on Friday, so I actually did do an episode, but I forgot my dang log in. But luckily it got restored in times for the Christhams times.

[GMSU 12-19-17]

I just noticed the Christmas trees in the background. Also, the snow. It's weird how many episodes I've watched and not noticed them. The poop was disgusting. It shouldn't have been on screen that much. That's one sick alien.

A shark attack? I'm still not into PETA. Great gang signs joke. It reminds me of one in MAD Magazine. It says sharks don't attack unless provoked so don't discuss religion or politics with them.

threebrain responds:

hahahaha do they still make mad magazine? :-O
