Pants Donkey posted:As a kid, I preferred the Adventures of Sonic cartoon Same. As an 11 or 12 year old, I really saw it as fourth-wall breaking, surreal nonsense and the show seemed proud of that. Admittedly, its deliberate goofiness invited more than a few Doug Walker types to criticize it for it wasn't trying to be. I haven't rewatched in since the 90s syndication heyday, barring Sonic Sez/Pingas memes, but--it was a silly show that hoped to marry the anarchic Nicktoons style (the R&S-style backgrounds, light gross-out humour, obsession with big ol' butts, sharp/weird character designs) with Roadrunner shorts. I can see the suits thinking Jaleel was the ideal Sonic given that he was an extremely popular family-friendly entertainer of the time (and he might be super into Sonic IRL?), but adding a voice to the character almost never works. Shoulda gone the Roadrunner route except his "beep, beep" would be "NO GOOD!" Edit: Speaking of online critics, I miss Cybershell. Please don't dox him (again). I just wish he'd come back and make vids about my favourite silly blue rat.

Hot take: I like both AoStH and Sonic SatAM. I like them both for different reasons. They are two sides of the same coin. The alpha and omega. The light and dark. I've watched both of them all the way through (and I've read most of the Archie Sonic comic) so I understand media better than most people.

the most important ken penders thing is this video he hid from the world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsdTPUy4sNI it is the trailer for a movie based on a comic he did for image that managed to last one issue before cancellation, but which he had been planning for years--the main character of LOST ONES was given a central role in the sonic/image comics crossover from a few years prior to try and sell people on ken's idea, even though nobody had heard of her and her presence could only detract from what little appeal such a stupid crossover could offer. it is rumored that he used ideas from the comic for his knuckles comic since they weren't getting made, but that's not definite. regardless, in the end ken's dream was not to be, and nobody bought the thing or (shockingly) was interested in funding the lost ones movie either, despite the stunning teaser trailer. i'm sure the finished product will be along any day now, though corn in the bible fucked around with this message at 08:20 on Apr 9, 2019 |

DoubleCakes posted:Hot take: I like both AoStH and Sonic SatAM. I like them both for different reasons. They are two sides of the same coin. The alpha and omega. The light and dark. Same. I understood that each was wildly different from the other and appreciated them both for what they brought to the table. When I was a kid AoStH was on on a daily basis at like 3:30 in the afternoon so it always on right after school when I got home. SatAM, conversely, came on at like 7:00 in the morning on Saturdays, and even as a kid I was the kind of person who loved to stay up late on Friday nights and sleep in on Saturday mornings. Plus it was frequently pre-empted by other programs because ABC didn’t give a poo poo about it so those times I actually got to see it live were rare gifts. I went back and watched all the big important episodes online later on and, ya know, it still holds up rather well. Adventures Of, meanwhile gets a little cringey more often than not from what I’ve been able to stomach rewatching. That said, I do appreciate the irony that Jaleel White for a very brief stretch of the 90s was playing both the coolest and uncool east characters on television at the same time. I think 10 year old me’s brain would have melted if you told me that Sonic the Hedgehog and Steve Urkel were the same person...

Puppy Time posted:I fukken loved Ken Penders's Sonic stuff as a kid so this is like watching my childhood shrivel into a disgusting moldy husk. You are talking about the British Sonic comicbook, just called 'Sonic the Comic', or StC for short. It did get pretty 1984 once it established itself, going heavy into police state stuff. Not all the population were turned into robots, the threat of such being used to control dissidents and as punishment. To my 11 year old mind this was incredible.

When you think about it, Robotnik was pretty hosed up in that he managed to weaponize Sonic's own uncle against him. Like, the concept of turning your loved ones against you like that blew my mind as a child. Beast Machines did the same thing, since Megatron took a fan favorite character in Silverbolt, had him brainwashed and put into a new unrelated robot, and then sent then to defeat his own former friends who knew it was him and had to struggle with whether or not they could fight him. That's dark stuff.

I think a lot of the blame for the weirder elements of Sonic fandom can be blamed squarely on Ken Penders, he’s the one that really dialed the melodrama and shipping up to 11. Not to mention being the purest incarnation of “original character do not steal” with his army of X the Echidnas, all of which he inexplicably now has total legal ownership of because Archie royally hosed up their record-keeping. I love the story of how Sega, while re-evaluating their handling of the Sonic brand after the release of 06, checked in on what was going on with those American comic books and saw this:  And went “what the gently caress.”

Sega also abruptly gave a bunch of character notes (after years of nothing at all) around the time of Sonic Adventure- suddenly, everything had to include game canon, and there were rules that basically said "Yeah, Sonic isn't allowed to have emotions or relationships beyond being Too Cool for School." This was not popular with the fanbase who were here for a soap opera about guerilla war furries. I stopped following around that time, so I'm not sure how the quality was after that, or how the writing seems to have drifted back to its old ways, though I understand it's improved in recent years.

poparena posted:New Nick Knacks for ya' on Mr. Wizard's World, an 80s revival of a 50s childrens science show that inspired both Bill Nye and Beakman's World. I'm really digging your stuff, but one bit of feedback: I'm not sure that big, long quotes (like at 10:30) work generally in the video-essay format. If you're going to do it, I'm confused as to why the entire thing--two really dense paragraphs--has to be on-screen all at once. You have it on-screen for nearly a full minute, and that feels like a really long time. If I have the video up on my side monitor I'll be looking to read the quote and then have to go fumble with skipping forward, but if I don't have it up I'm going to listen to a very long citation that, to me, is interesting but is also really long-winded and interruptive. I would suggest editing your quotes down somewhat to hone in on the point you're trying to make and presenting them more in-line with your own work, rather than dropping them in as these big interruptions. tracecomplete fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Apr 9, 2019 |
