Honestly though, it DOES seem really soon for another Magical Realism arc.

Welp, i said i was getting tired of magical realism, but this just keeps getting better. We should all learn to trust Onstad more i think.

Hey, can someone find for me the comic where Teodor has a dream in which he takes his mouth off and his name in the dream isn't Teodor? I can't remember anything useful to search for.

This one?

I think this is a great idea, as i'm one of those people who always preferred the shorter strips to the longer ones.

Am i the only one who finds this entire story arc to just feel really forced and melodramatic? To be honest, i don't think any of the "drama" arcs have been very good, though. But i just don't see how this is so darn depressing.

(disclaimer: i love achewood!! i just dont love the drama)

People actually dislike Citizen Kane? I watched it 6 months or so ago, and i thought it was incredible, both in terms of cinematography and plot.

Of course, no matter what you feel about the film, it's hard to dislike the new strip. :v:

It's not like we don't know where the storyline was going, anyway. Ray and Beef got involved and saved the day and Teodor explored his sexuality. There. :colbert: (Beef depression strips are the best strips, anyway)

I think you're right.

And panels two and three are pretty clearly recycled.

To be fair, "lying on the floor being depressed" is basically Beef's hobby.

I dunno, it does seem like kind of an unclassy move to leave people hanging like that, and then make a post where you basically go "PS: donate, lol".

I actually liked this one! Hopefully we won't be seeing any more Zany Artsy Plotlines for a while, because i can barely remember the last time there was a Funny Thing in the comic.

what kind of man has his priorities so screwed up he can't enjoy a little Laser Sex Math

Laser Sex Math was a weak payoff to an asinine storyline, and it was pretty much bordering on self-parody. :colbert: There, i said it.

This is cool news, but I hope they work on the animation a bit, because it looks kinda bad the way it is.

Also, I just realized that I have never actually considered what their voices would sound like, so I guess I'm the only person who isn't worrying about that!

e: vvv They should really try to get David Lynch to guest-direct any scenes with Cartilage Head.

I'm bad at voices in my head. While reading the what-if voice chat I realized I never actually gave them voices, they just had different patterns of speech. I wonder if this is A Psychological Problem. :smith:

Yeah, this is basically how i am too!

Those are some pretty great voices! It definitely made me realize that what works in a comic format doesn't necessarily work in animation, though. The pacing just ends up feeling weird.

The fact that Onstad doesn't really WANT to voice Beef is what makes him perfect for Beef.

This comic made my eyes glaze over and it wasn't really very entertaining. That is my opinion on this comic strip.

Maybe you'd find other talking animal comics more your speed. I hear there's one about a cat who likes lasagna and doesn't cotton much to Mondays.

I agree, Garfield is genuinely funnier than the last bunch of Achewood strips.

I loving love epic Achewood quotes. It's insanely cool, to me, that people, in this thread, have read Achewood, and prove it by repeatedly quoting it. When people do that, i like to post another quote in response, from the same comic, to prove that i too have read Achewood. It's like a little secret handshake that us Achewooders do, to prove to each other that we read Achewood, in the thread about Achewood.

Alright, switch it up some more. Keep the old man, have him be hetero, and make Teodor female( current age as in the strip. Which is what...late 20s?)
Is it still cool with you guys that some hog is getting tasted

Let's say that the old man is Hitler, and Theodor is an 8-year old Jewish boy, and the van is Auschwitz. STILL OKAY WITH THAT?????? HUH?!?!?!?!??!??!?!?!
