Eric-McTrainshit's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cats R Us]

It still has me returning every once in awhile to watch this, so it must have done something right!

Rubbertje responds:

Hi! Thank you very much. I was just watching back some old stuff of mine and I saw your comment. Really awesome to read that you return to this movie once in a while!! : )

[(SNEAK PREVIEW) Pilot Episode - The Life Of Jester]

Hmm…

I really do enjoy the plot and characters and the design of the characters, but some things seem a little…

Well…

The stiff animation, default fonts and gaps between dialogue are just too similar to the "Law For Kids" flash animations or something like that.

I mean, I'll go easy on it, considering that it's a pilot, but it can use a little polish in some areas and more in others, but once that happens and the characters are fully developed and all that jazz, it'd probably be pretty fuckin' baddass. Like, what I imagine this becoming something I'd look forward to keeping up with.

All it really needs is:
-more lively voice acting (Which it's really almost there)
-More animation and smoother movements and maybe a little more detail (Like hand drawn lettering in the background
-More audio. (Music, sound effects, ambiance, whatever)

Well, it basically just needs to be more lively and express the emotions of the characters better than it does in this pre-pilot thingie.

Rating this at 3.5 because of the fuckload of potential.

2dJonnyT responds:

Hey thank you! That was an honest review! Yea it is the pilot and as time goes on the character "data base" for hand movements and the things you listed will grow. I am currently the only animator for this series, so its very much a big work load. As for the fonts, I will take note of that! I created the font for the Show Title (the eyes moving and stuff) but I see what your saying as for the fonts "in the actual show" like on the buildings. However, I did create the Cob Web Bar and Grille font myself. I have been working day and night to get better with my "movements regarding the characters and I have better getting better and better each time I open the software! .... Thank you for your review! I am glad you see this having a ton of potential, the cast thinks so to! We are excited to have this up and running full speed! Thank You!

[The Meatwad Collab]

Oh man. My favorite part had to be censored out?
Fuck!
Now this is absolute garbage.
Oh well.

DylanMann responds:

Eric?

[Yoshi's WoollyWorld]

Poor guy, I have to feel bad for you.

By the way, did you name yourself after the Yoshi game?

WooleyWorld responds:

[Lion & Giraffe]

Very enjoyable!

It didn't have much of a story, but it what did happen was hilarious. The animation was also great, reminds me of older animations from over a decade ago. But it flowed well and everything was very recognizable.

It has to go into my favorites!

Queen0fHearts responds:

Aw thank you! Yes I was going for a 'cute' look, which I think the lion came out especially adorable! lol

[Ducktails Goes Big]

(@.@)

I love the improvements you have made in the series.
One of these days, you're gonna get either Turd of the Week or Daily Feature!

The wait for this was definitely worth every minute. The patience really paid off.

one can only hope

[The Dragon Hunters]

Hmm...

To start, there were a few major things I'd like to point out about this flash.
The thing is that you shouldn't combine music in the preloader, it delays loading times SIGNIFICANTLY!
That is a major annoyance, and if you didn't do that then this flash would be no-where near 5 megs.
(a small loop is more acceptable if you must include music in the loading screen)

Other than that, the was fine and dandy, smooth flowing, but definitely not worth the 5megs.

Megs cost me money to dl, and the bigger the flash longer to dl.
Also, it costs more for NG to host.
Think about compression and removing unnecessary content.

Fureimes responds:

I'll take the music out of my preloader... thanks for the hint

[Timmy goes Sonic!]

I enjoyed this quite a bit.

It was a really entertaining video, I felt that it was a bit of a "cliff hanger" though.
Great work.

Zoltrix115 responds:

Thanks, I agree though, I just didn't know how to give it some life, but I will try it! :3

[Shitscape - Episode 2]

Bring back the good work.

This is actually one of your better animations.
(Isn't spam)

Why don't you put this kind of effort into your other projects, rather then posting something and swapping it for utter trash?
I actually like it.

thehoopz responds:

I only made thid cause people were saying i sucked at flash
