Ballz posted:That's why a lot of us are excited to see them each have their own unique identities in the new show. In fact it seems their sometimes contradictory personalities in the comics will instead be divided up between each of them in the show; Dewey is more confrontational and more likely to butt heads with his uncles while Huey is more resourceful and willing to go by the Junior Woodchuck's Guidebook for example. Previously that could refer to any (or all) of them in any given story. In the new show we now can expect which nephew to behave in which way. A lot of us are very excited that the cartoon ducks have distinct personalities. This was a genuine concern.

I. I don't know what you're trying to say here? I don't care for how they are in the comic. I like when they're distinct better. I'm glad the show did what the old cartoon did, instead of skewing closer to the comic. That's all.

Premiering early in the morning is a drag for liveposting. Nice to see that continuity is here with Webby and Dewey already on the case of Della.

Webby interpreting Louie's hand signal as icing the manager with a spork is easily my favorite moment in this show so far.

Both episodes were definitely enjoyable. It's interesting that they're diving right into the "What the hell happened to Della" plot so quickly, considering how that's been such a taboo topic in the duck comics and shows for so long. I do have to wonder if it's something they plan on resolving by the end of this or next season, or if it's going to be a plot thread right up through the series finale.

Yeah, while the original still has it's charm the new Ducktales just seems to be better in most aspects and I like that there seems to be some kind of running story line this time around. The new Webby is especially great, even if she is basically the Pines twins combined together in duck form. I wasn't sure at first about the triplets being voiced by adult men but it works well enough and I like that they have their own unique personalities this time around (which is one of the few things Quack Pack actually got right).

ConanThe3rd posted:Can't wait to figure out the context there. There really isn't one. As nice as it was to see the Beagle Boys reintroduced, I have to say I preferred "The Great Dime Chase" and the way the kids had to deal with two forms of insanity. I imagine all the "international markets" are references to old DuckTales episodes, but I only recognized El Dorado. And considering the original show it makes sense that in this version Scrooge keeps his lucky dime on him at all times.

IRQ posted:Didn't particularly like the design for the beagle boys but I'm always glad to see character actress Margo Martindale in something. It's a pretty standard design set for a trio: Biggest and the strongest and the dumbest, the middle one (who actually didn't get much characterization), and the short one with a bit of a Napoleon complex. Though as someone who never watched or read any previous Ducktales media, I have no attachment either way. Both eps were pretty good though and it looks like they're taking it a little easy with the overarching plot as of now.

Got to them.

Does anyone else feel like Scrooge's been left out of those two episodes a little, especially in the first one? The second one was basically him arguing with a bunch of accountants who are even bigger miser than he is. Which, by the way, somewhat upsets me. No one should show off to Scrooge in the realm of cheapness!

spiderdreamer-blog posted:Loving the show so far, but I'm curious as what to led to the change in Gyro's personality, given that in the comics and the original show, he was much more genteel and a doormat. It's quite fun, but I have to get used to it, although Jim Rash's mad-scientist routine is a lot of fun. Frank Angones posted:There was a big push overall to make Scrooge seem more dangerous/risky, to make you really wonder whether Scrooge or Donald’s parenting styles were right. It was important that Scrooge still have an adventurous life on the fringes of his business. That was reflected in our versions of Beakley and Webby. Part of that was making Scrooge’s business and his associates a little more out there: the payoff of new Gyro’s inventions could be amazing but it’s also fraught with peril. Also, in service of story, this version of Gyro creates more conflict that we can build stories off of.

This is setting out to be a pretty different and separate thing from the original, for better or worse. So far I like a lot of the aesthetics, but I feel like since they're trying for a much more long form thing with the writing, it'll be a while before I can really make a judgement on that part. I really loved the archivist though. Also Webby getting excited at a dog with a bowtie, while in a bus filled with dogs wearing clothes, reading books, and driving the bus?

Had to look some of them up, but I think they're all Rosa stories.. Dawson - Site of Scrooge's first riches, per the comics. Also where he met Goldie. I believe he also opened his first bank there to loan miners money? Lillehammer - Winter olympics, as mentioned. El Dorado - Obvious treasure location Culebra - The mountain range that was cut through to make the Panama Canal. In the comics, Scrooge owns that mountain and the U.S. has to make a deal with him to put the Canal there. dragon_pamcake posted:Is there anywhere to get screengrabs from these episodes?

Did someone grab a picture of gyros Good-Bad list? I'm pretty sure the time tub was on that. (It gained sentience.) Also it's probably a good thing that Scrooge doesn't fire him. He's like one step away from becoming a manic super villain. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Sep 24, 2017 |
