Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Teaser: The Last of the Dashkin 2]

I am so glad to see you make something again! I just love to see this character again. Granted, you haven't done nothing in years. You are pretty consistent here. I can't really give a teaser the full score. This will certainly be good.

I just love seeing this animation. Everything is just so nicely paced here. I felt that it was a good running time. It really didn't tell do much or do little. You express yourself well. You are just that good.

chluaid responds:

Thank you :)

[Let's go Clubbing!]

I feel bad that this didn't have a higher rating. I mean, I personally don't find it to be one of your best, but it's still really fun. It's mostly because everything is so unpredictable. People might be turned off by how short it is, but I found it worked well. You did something different. Then again, few of your cartoons are the same.

The animation was as great as ever. I did feel for some of these characters. It made no sense, but was fun. You had no idea what would happen in the next scene. Then again, you had no idea what was going on in the scene you were watching either!

Sexual-Lobster responds:

cheers, Ericho.

[HAPPINESS (Part 3)]

Oh, I was wondering why I didn't recognize the title. You simply had a different one for every single installment! How clever! I guess I should be more familiar with this. I think some of the plot could have been better. I didn't like it how the kid picked the fight in the first place.

Then again, I guess that other kid deserved it. The lack of dialogue makes everything amazing. You just perfectly know how to show characterizations in this. The music is wonderful too. It's great to see how everything develops.

BryanV responds:

Thanks. I actually had to debate a lot on who should start the fight first. I had the beginning middle and end written down but that part took so long for me to finalize. But yeah, I kinda agree with you there.

[War of the Worlds Pt3]

I thought this wasn't bad. I think the series is getting better. It helps that you're more creative. You're using more flash techniques. When you said "10 flashes", I thought you were talking about cartoons here. The voices are quite nice.

I like the different styles. It is a nice tribute to old movies. I just thought it was nice how the menu was like a DVD. Dang, I remember when those things were rare. It is a bit slow moving, though.

Gerkinman responds:

Its a shame that the move to video based content made those old style DVD menus you could make in flash obsolete. They were fun.

[Where do babies come from?]

Wow, I am surprised that this got Daily Feature. It's probably the least of its kind I've ever seen. The animation is quite poor. It is waaay too short. You need to have a lot more of a story. What does this even have to do with babies?

You need to have shadings and more colors. The lines are quite bad. I guess someone must like this. I just don't see what this has to do with anything. It comes off as way too cheap.

Dr-Dinesty responds:

lol

[4 Swords Misadventures 10]

I really did enjoy this and I'm glad you're back! It's sad that you're not in a format that doesn't allow you to have Easter eggs. I'm sure you can still submit something like that. Well, not on other websites. I really like how the story is advancing. It's great to see how far you've come.

I just watched Dragonball Resurrection F so it was nice to see some DBZ parodies. The voice work was great. Rina-chan is as good as ever. I like how there are new things that really do advance the plot. It's just nice to have Zelda finally interact.

VicHD responds:

Sacrifices had to be made when fans pressure you to make things quicker.

I did consider having Cojiro Turn blue to reference Goku's new transformation, but I figured that would be overdoing it.

[War of the Worlds Pt2]

I was kind of bored by this. There wasn't much going on. It just seemed like the same stuff from last time. The animation was still fairly good. I do like the technique with the black and white stuff. It's still pretty elaborate.

I just found it to be too short. I like the "Pt2" title. The music is fairly nice. It's nothing to write home about. You can certainly make better things.

Gerkinman responds:

This series certainly had a lot of balance issues when it came to pacing and episode lengths, so the critique is more than fair.

[NWAR: Bottle Episode]

It's great to see you back! I love it when people name stuff after tropes. It's even better when it's something quite different than what you would expect. I should use that episode joke. I appreciate how good the animation is. You just have so much going on.

You don't know what silly pun will show up next. Everything moves so smoothly. I knew she'd stay dead at the end. It was just enjoyable. It's exactly what I'd expect from you and this series.

danmarkowitz responds:

Thanks a lot!

[Safety At work.]

This was good, but it could have been better. It was rather nice to see this animation. It looks like you really have changed after all this time. I guess if it was bloody people would accuse it of being like "Madness Combat". There's too many imitators of those already. The music is great.

I like to see how things get worse. It was nice to see these little guys going around everywhere. Was this a parody of a PSA? It seemed like one at least. I'm glad I don't work at a construction site.

NCH responds:

This was like a very old work done back then for some inter school safety animation compeition. The animation got me first place lol.
