Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Final Flatus]

Well, it's not your first thing in ten years. You did make the Peter Griffin soundboard in 2006, so it was eight years of anything. I still understand that this is an unbelievable achievement. I think you have set a record here! As for the cartoon itself, it wasn't bad. It actually reminds me of a funny news article I red about.

It said a guy had air pumped into him accidentally and it took him three days to burp and fart it all out. True story! This certainly was something different from you. I'm always loyal to my favorite authors. I'd love to see you do more stick stuff.

Ringfinger responds:

My first "animation" in ten years, the soundboard doesn't really count as a cartoon ;) But still you're right. An achievement, maybe, but I do intend on making more and improved content. Thanks for staying loyal for all these years though!

[Piles]

I have to admit that I have no idea what "piles" are. I can see the word "hemorrhoids", so I'm going to assume that's what they are. It's amazing how many disgusting things you make songs of. Piles is probably some British term. I'm glad I don't have to deal with them. In a weird sense, this was educational.

I keep wondering what disgusting thing will show up next. I really don't want to give you any ideas. I'm glad they eventually go away. Well, at least it seems like they're going away. This was pretty catchy as most of your songs are.

koit responds:

There's a massive repository of filth out there waiting to be mined. :)

[Robbed]

I have to admit that this NATA round has given us some unique stuff. I had no idea what was going to happen next. While a bit too short, still very nicely done. I especially love how it is a pretty feel good movie. I mean, someone's getting some money out of this. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to go so casual.

Well, it didn't quite at the end. The voices were quite good. I like how strong you put these emotions in the characters. I had no idea something for NATA would get such a high score. Good for you, dude!

Brewster responds:

I'm actually really surprised at the score for this one. Thanks for the kind words

['Emergency Breakfast']

As the only one I have seen, I have to say that this is the best in NATA 2014 - Round 2. Hey, it's not 2014 yet! I appreciate how the animation is really good in this. I'm not quite sure what this had to do with desperate measures. Then again, it's a fairly ambiguous term. I like the notion of robots eating breakfast.

Everything moves quite fluidly here. If you made this longer, it could probably be better. I know that was difficult given the time frame. I was surprised by the lack of sound at first. It certainly got better.

Butzbo responds:

Thank you Ericho!
Maybe the take on the theme was a bit subtle this time, but the 'measure' was definitively his "head throw".
And I couldn't agree more!, I really wanted to develop this little "world" a little more, although I couldn't get really far during the 4 days of animation.

[Ultimate Yacht Battle]

I'm thinking this may be the highest rated flash I've ever seen. However, I still can't give it the full treatment. I just think it's a wonderful cartoon. It's just amazing how much you have in this. You really do have a continuing story with these characters. I think it might be the longest in the series too.

It really is more of an action cartoon than a comedy. I thought I'd see the comedy or parody tag under here. It seems like most comedies are also parodies nowadays. The voices and animation were fantastic. I know you work so hard on these.

Sexual-Lobster responds:

cheers ericho.

[Los Simpsons: Mariachi]

I did not care too much for this. I think the worst thing was how there just wasn't much to it. At least I manage to appreciate the animation is kind of good. I used to study Spanish. It doesn't seem like knowing it would be worth it here. There's just nothing too noteworthy.

I guess I could understand how this was related to "The Simpsons". It would be about Homer trying to get Marge back. Besides that, it didn't seem special. I guess it was nice to hear the actual version. I guess there really was an episode like that.

xmorpher responds:

the sound is for the real voice actor that plays homer in spanish but not an episode, just fooling around

[Tannhausser Chronicles pa]

I found this to just be okay. I did kind of like it how there was a backstory with this. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem anything that unique. The animation looks quite dated. I think the animation still probably is the best part. Congrats on getting such a high rating.

I guess most people want this series to continue. I think it could also have some better voice acting. Not to sound critical, but it seemed a bit cliché here. I still think this can be done well. You just need to improve on several things.

cocolongo responds:

Thank you . I am learning more everyday and I appreciate that you took time to comment.
