Welp, I don't have cable so not only can't I watch on TV, I can't watch on Disney's website because they require you have a television provider.

m2pt5 posted:Nice! How about the ones at the ends of the credits (before the full-screen things?) Each episode has a key for those. The key for the first is widdle and the key for the second is shifter. There's websites that'll decode it. Edit: There's also this one at the corner of Dipper's cork board. It's a bit hard to make out but the missing letters can be filled in by context. tev fp tbkav pl mbocbzq Xelkelvos fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Aug 2, 2014 |

Edit: For the corkboard one, using the decoder at themysteryofgravityfalls.com, ATBASH, then CAESAR-3, then ATBASH decodes it. Stumbled on that one by luck my first try. m2pt5 fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Aug 2, 2014 |

Man, I was so excited, and these episodes did not disappoint in the slightest. I was only taken aback by the dramatically darker tone, as others have pointed out. Alex Hirsch's interviews focused on Dipper getting more intense with the investigation. It looks like the town is going to get just as intense in return. Random observations (gonna keep doing aggressive spoiler tags until both eps have aired live): - Stan clearly came out of the vending machine in front of the kids during the zombie fight, but Dipper didn't seem to notice; I wonder if that'll be revisited - Holy poo poo those episodes were scary/creepy/dark compared to season 1; the "good luck getting any sleep tonight" line was spot on - Candy and Grenda were perfect, all of the minor characters were great in Scary-oke except possibly the teenagers, who were a little flat - Blowing up a ton of zombies' heads with Top 40 pop music is the most Gravity Falls thing ever - I really enjoyed Grunkle Stan and Wendy's dual admissions to not being as oblivious as Dipper assumed they were ("I can hear what you whisper under your breath, you know!") edit: how did I forget GRUNKLE STAN WRECKING poo poo LEFT AND RIGHT WITH BRASS KNUCKLES And two separate spoilers about two popular theories: - Stan clearly set the portal to scan for something, as shown by the 0.0000001% progress meter and red X's next to the various binary printouts; this seems to back up the "searching for Stanley across all dimensions" theory - The author of the journals. One line of the shapeshifter's dialogue was a dead giveaway: "that six-fingered nerd hasn't been himself for 30 years". Who's the only character we know who is well above 30, is probably "not himself", wears a bandage on his hand at all times, and has a first name that starts with F? Fiddleford H. McGucket. Not to mention an affinity for technology that easily jives with the crazy poo poo in the bunker. Also, I don't really START topics on SA very often, so is there a special restriction on editing OP subject lines? Possibly just in TV IV? pksage fucked around with this message at 06:36 on Aug 2, 2014 |

The new episodes are killing it. I'm really glad they killed the Dipper/Wendy plotline, and in a pretty graceful way. I was worried the show was going to espouse some weird Nice Guy bullshit.

Those were two fun episodes. I quite liked the visual gag at the start of S201 with the 'pinch to zoom' (not real spoilers) Also. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVIdy9_wqQw Mr. F

I mean, it was a monster and the blood was green and all, but it still seems like attacking a (thing that appears to be) human with an axe is something censors would consider a tad too imitatable for a kids' show. I like it. Also, special agent Nick Offerman (  ) reaching for his gun.

I like it. Both episodes were amazing. I'm surprised they got away with, like most everything in both episodes. Slicing into the shape shifter was messy, but the entire zombie sequence was the same way, and against more humanoid monsters too. That shifter reveal was legitimately creepy. And the Mable-Dipper-abomination form too, oh god. Not to mention Wendy's bra and Fully Clothed Woman magazine (Trenchcoat edition!). Maybe it took a year because Hirsch spent 9 months fighting with Disney censors. I also noticed Stan put on a six fingered glove in the cold open of Scary-oke when pulling the lever.

I know it's probably discussed to death but what does moving it to XD mean? I don't have any frame of reference so I don't know if this has done for other popular things too or if it means Disney doesn't feel it belongs with its regular programming

Hirsch had no idea about even the timeline for a S1 release when he was asked at the LA Film Fest event in June. You would think Disney would release a set a week or so before the S2 premiere, but it apparently doesn't need another truckful of cash anytime soon.

I don't know if the "move" to Disney XD really means anything, since I'm pretty sure that the new episode that premiered yesterday was on regular Disney.

So that whole theory on 3 or 4 fingers on a hand isn't really anything is it? Cause it just looks like adults have 4 fingers and kids have 3, but then also sometimes Gideon has 4. New season is pretty great, I've been watching episodes randomly because there appears to be no order or reason to them playing on Disney. Guess I'll go look for a blu-ray collection or something. edit: Dang it, looks like they don't release entire seasons, just specials and digital downloads for like 60 bucks!!!!

This was a very solid and things happened two parter. I think honesty and trust will be a important part of this season, given the resolutions of both episodes, and the journal all the way back in "Tourist Trapped" said to trust no one. Given how the Experiment called the author "That six fingered fool", of course the number of fingers is relevant

Additionally regarding fingers - when Stan put on a glove to flip the switch on the machine in the first episode, it had 6 fingers, the last of which flopped around since Stan only has 5.
