Achewood / Re: I thought April Fools was in April?
« on: March 03, 2013, 12:34:14 am »
More thoughts:
I thought the whiskey sketch was the most poorly translated bit. It was just really flat and awkward, especially the "kiss my ass bitch I'll be at Duane's" part. I cried when I saw this. (not really)
Actually every sketch had kind of flat parts and kind of funny parts. Just inconsistent overall.
I will be fine with Toby Huss, but it seems like he has yet to find a groove with Ray.
This show would do way better with a faster pace. Think Family Guy. MacFarlane knows how to do timing, even if his jokes are played out.
And I really can't get used to the mocap 3d style either. Cheap and minimal flash would suit Achewood so much better. Onstad gotta get him some Koreans/different Russians/Canadians.

You all saw this, right?
http://youtu.be/b_97q16TFxk
I don't know how to video on this forum
Anyway I think that the voices aren't that bad and could grow on me. I think the timing is kind of flat, but maybe that's because I'm so used to all these setups from reading the comic a billion times that my standards are much higher.
Adult Swim would be so perfect for this. Spike or FOX would be awesome too. Back-to back Achewood and AXE COP???
Is so good.
I always imagined Ray and Beef to talk like this though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW-ryo1SnqE
So I actually think Ray's voice is rather close to that. Could be toned down a bit though.
I didn't expect Beef to sound the way he does, but it's also ok with me. It's also Onstad himself so that's just damn fine.
Apparently Ray's VA is Artie the Strongest Man in the World from Pete & Pete. OMG 90s!!!!
I still think the animation is too 'uncanny valley' (like what is up with Tina, girl looks all weird).
I was hoping for more hand drawn flash styles. Anybody ever see the Shmorky animation?
Anyway, I WILL watch the butts out of this show. If it actually becomes a thing. And they change the voices. And the animation. Lol jk brah

Parts of these things here and there do not resemble anything a five year old would say. For example "websites that wait for you to die" and the section about England.
I'm convinced large portions of The Philippe Times are ghostwritten by Beef.

I kind of figured how this would end back in January. Teodor, he of the eternally frustrated libido. T still sounds like T IMO, but it's kind of lame how Mr. Bear has since developed; his dialogue doesn't really convey anything. I can't believe anybody would ever talk that way in any situation. Some of his phrases were familiar, but his dialogue has gone wayyy too purple.
I think it's interesting how the phrase "take no truck" was first used by Nice Pete.

Plus you know, the Portland Mercury thing. You have to be on your fuck*ng GAME if you are writing anything professionally. Writing is arguably an even more obsessive art and more intense in its demands than comics/telling good jokes.
Not to mention his audience for that apparently are even bigger assholes than most of the Achewood fanbase.

I think there was one review of his that really did get quite unnecessarily purple and rambling for a food review. That kind of fueled a backlash of uppity bitchiness that's lasted far longer than it should have, but that's apparently the nature of the comment culture that's developed on that website. A lot of blogs and shit on the web have that "miserable internet ghetto" feel going on where half of the regular commenters will never ever get along with the other half.

I'm sure Todd added that unnecessary apostrophe when he left just to spite Connie.

I've had dreams/daymares like this as a kid when I was in bed sick or something.
Only they didn't end in a sad way, and usually ended in me getting to pet farm animals or something.
