I just finished Puhoy, those kinds of episodes always gently caress me up. Every so often I feel a bit burnt out going through this show and then it throws out a 10/10 episode

Every so often I feel a bit burnt out going through this show and then it throws out a 10/10 episode I think that's one of the best in the whole show. When people ask what episodes to check out to see what the show's like, my go to's are What Was Missing (character and music), Puhoy (art) and BMO Lost (focus on a side character).

I definitely need to start a full rewatch of Adventure Time. At this point it's definitely in my top 10 shows of all time, it's just I'm worried the nostalgia will hit me too hard

That was Golb's first appearance, and it felt like just some random weirdness at the time. I like the Lich's title during one of his monologues to Finn. The theory is Golb was there to devour the pillow world, because it would no longer exist without Finn there.

Hopefully it does well enough for them to invest in a seasons 3 and 4 to knock out SOTN and one of the modern era storylines to wrap everything up. Megillah Gorilla posted:Started watching Scavengers Reign after a big delay. Up to ep 7 and the Professor X Panda is loving terrifying. Yeah I hate that loving esper panda, dude is freaky. I'm only up to episode 7 so I need to catch up but I do wonder if the esper panda absorbed some affinity for violence from Kamen as a result of their initial interactions, and then just rolled with it as Kamen did his typical "be a self-centered fuckup" thing. The rest of them seemed fairly benign, but who knows really.

Scavengers Reign was great but I almost hope it stays as one perfect season. So much great imagery, absolutely off the charts. And I'm guessing even with all that it was still a lot cheaper to make than many series because the designs were great and moved well but weren't super complicated to draw. As I was watching this episode and especially with the bit at the end I kept thinking 'they should make a Locked Tomb series and animate it exactly like this."

I'm not done with Scavenger's Reign yet and I've been getting serious Space Dandy vibes with how alien everything is. I've really been liking that since it allows them to just go nuts with it.

I would have agreed, but the possible next season hook is intriguing. If it does happen though, I hope it mostly follows a new cast of characters. There isn't a need to go back to the planet.

There definitely were some interesting developments in the Scavengers Reign finale, space catholics and baby levis have pretty big implications, along with everything else going on, like Kamen surviving in what is now Demetertown. I could definitely watch another season of this, but I would be content if it was left at what it was. Now to finish up the other surprisingly good adult animation that came out of left field lately with Blue Eye Samurai.

These days I see $150 million movies on Friday that I barely remember by Monday. It's become really really rare that I read/watch something special that sticks with me. Scavenger's Reign is going to stick with me. Sad, beautiful, horrific, lyrical. Just gorgeous. Also holy poo poo I had my fingers crossed so hard for that exact thing happening for Levi, that the symbiotic slime mold would pull her back together to have Vesta adventures and kick that loving frog-slug's rear end e: I didn't expect her to have babies though! they were adorable Clipperton fucked around with this message at 08:27 on Nov 10, 2023 |

I don't know why you think the space cult is linked to the planet. They felt pretty Catholic to me, down to the big stained glass window and golden front of the ship and the incense. What a great show, I'm going to miss it and I would LIKE a second series but it's not a big deal if it doesn't get one.

I'm confused that there's apparently no means of long-range communication (i.e. better than those hand radios) even on the Demeter? They can't signal to anyone to come get them?

Scavengers Reign was drat near perfect. I'm sure they could make more of it and it would probably be pretty cool but I don't know how anything that follows would have as much impact. Everything felt so perfectly crafted, alien, dangerous and yet the human elements are what really matters. Even the questions about this world and universe feel like part of the story. I hope it always stays mysterious.

Do we have any idea how many seasons they've been signed for or are planning? Because there's a whole lotta room for more world-building. Man a show like this does not need more “world building” imo. It shines and is at its most audacious when it’s concerned with the sublime. I’m thinking of the scene with Ursula in the bramble and what she witnesses, something potent with meaning that she can’t quite grasp. When it moves into more standard story beats at the end (while still good) it kinda loses that. It reminds me of Annihilation, or more so, Authority (which had the same issue n Acceptance when it strained to provide some explanation which just came off as impotent). It brings up this line from Pynchon for me: “She looked down a slope, needing to squint for the sunlight, onto a vast sprawl of houses which had grown up all together, like a well-tended crop, from the dull brown earth; and she thought of the time she’d opened a transistor radio to replace a battery and seen her first printed circuit. The ordered swirl of houses and streets, from this high angle, sprang at her now with the same unexpected, astonishing clarity as the circuit card had. Though she knew even less about radios than about Southern Californians, there were to both outward patterns a hieroglyphic sense of concealed meaning, of an intent to communicate. There’d seemed no limit to what the printed circuit could have told her (if she had tried to find out); so in her first minute of San Narciso, a revelation also trembled just past the threshold of her understanding.” That feeling of a concealed meaning, trembling just beyond the edge of your understanding. Something vital is being communicated by the fauna that we are incapable of grasping.

This is addressed in the first episode. It’s not. “Can’t” it’s “won’t”. They’re written off on a ledger somewhere. They’ll get a tax credit for losing the ship maybe.

David Zaslav, now a brain floating in a jar, receives a report regarding a missing mining vessel. "Excellent," he bubbles through the viscous, nutrient-rich brain fluid, "the write-off for the Demeter will easily cover the losses and fund another season of 90-Day Fiancée!"

Surely by then he will have found a way to make taxpayers give him money both for not-releasing something to help fuel the budget to not-release 90 day fiance to make even more money not releasing things.

Caught up on the back half of the season tonight and I would be content not having anything else expanded on or explained about this show. It was great and had a lot of stuff that will stay with me for a while but feels like the narrative was sufficiently tied up. Real "things are going to be okay but they're going to be different" sentiment overall. If they have more story to tell then great but the whole vibe relies on acknowledging and accepting that there is a logic to planet Versa and the universe writ large that we cannot grasp. Trying to unpack that would be a fool's errand.
