ericdrebin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cool Court]

Totally Rad!

That may be the greatest thing that I have ever seen. Funny as all hell! I don't know where you come up with this stuff, but keep it up. My sides are aching from all the laughing that I was doing after watching that funny-ass cartoon.
I only hope that one day i might go to Cool Court, hell, I'll even sweep the floor.

[Eres Veneno ++]

Beautiful.

Such a good job. I had forgotten all about this series, and this was a great reminder. The animation was excellent, and the action fit the music perfectly. A wonderful, explosive ride that left me damn near speechless.
Keep it up, this is what I think of when I think of Newgrounds, just good 'ol quality flash.

[Chase 'n' Pac-Man 2]

Most hilarious!

Extremely good! I was laughing so hard that my neighbors had to come over and ask me to be quiet (apartments).
Keep it up!

[Apples and Tangerines]

Very Nice.

I agree with ETERNALLY-HUMAN. It's nice to find things like this on NG, that isn't just blood/death-penis/fart humor. This seemed like it was very well thought out, and I just loved the overall style. Excellent music choice, too.
It made me think...

[- The Nail -]

I liked it.

That was well drawn, and had a real nice style to it, especially with the This Mortal Coil song. It 's the best, most articulated response to the whole Foamy/Neurotically Yours phenomenon that I've seen here on Newgrounds yet. I wonder what illwillpress will make of it.

Oh, and for the people complaining about the other popular flash icons down in the well, mellow out. It was a joke and you don't have to take everything so seriously. It's a flash animation, not the Bible.

Overall, good work. I actually though this was made by illwillpress at first, you got the style down perfectly (not that Foamy is hard to draw). I'm looking forward to more of your work.

[MC Rapper: Freestyle Flow]

Nice.

I thought this was funny and very well drawn. I liked all the little "in-jokes", it was very subtle and just plain funny. Also, the song itself was good, too.
Nice work.

[Dante's Inferno: Canto I]

Absolutley excellent!

Just brilliant. The art was well drawn, the pacing and visual dynamic was engaging, and it felt like an actual animated picture, as opposed to a regular flash caroon.
I highly recommend it.

[Summer Camp: Episode 1]

Fantabulous!

That was the greatest flash I have ever seen. 'Nuff said.

ExcellentFriends responds:

I find it interesting that this show is so polarizing, everyone seems to really hate it or really like it. I guess it's a combination of what they are expecting out of it, and the fact that newgrounders probably exaggerate their opinion a lot in reviews.

Thanks for the Review!

[Old Mario Bros: Prelude]

Pretty good stuff.

I thought this was an interesting take on the Mario Bros. For a subject that has been done far too much on Newgrounds, you still manage to keep this interesting. This pacing was a little slow, but the overall story was engaging, and I eagerly await the next installment. I also like your use of Mario Bros. sound effects as censoring sounds, and i also like that you used music from the audio portal. More people need to make use of the audio portal.

oh, and I agree that the Mario bros. games have turned into crap recently. I take some good old fashioned goomba stomping over cleaning up graffriti any day.

[Sephiroth vs Silent Hill]

I didn't like it.

I didn't care for this film. I found the animation to be stiff and repetitive, the humor wasn't very funny, and I just didn't see the point. You concept seemed to be Sephiroth in Silent Hill, which could make for a great idea, but there wasn't any point to this. You didn't do much, apart from the nice touch of having the HP display above the creatures when they got attacked. Then it just ended with some dumb joke about George W. Bush.

Important:
1. Bashing George W. Bush does not equal funny. It has been done to death and it was done here with no real context.
2. Final Fantasy does not equal cool. Especially FF7, which SqaureEnix has pretty much bled dry at this point. Just because you have Sephiroth in your movie doesn't make it cool, it just makes it a bad movie with Sephiroth in it.
3. Mindless violence is not a plot. Your movie had absolutely no story to it. I thought it was boring. Work out a script before you even start animating. Newgrouinds is a place for you to showcase your talents, not a toilet where you crap out what you and your friends think is cool.

Next time try harder. I have no idea why this was on the front page. Perhaps Newgrounds is slipping.
