Ghost Leviathan posted:Steven Universe tended to kinda invert the pacing that we're used to; major plot developments would appear quite suddenly and episodes would be devoted to the aftermath, rather than build up to a climax. Hadn't thought about this before. SU really did spend much more time with the fallout of things than it did building up the foreshadowing or ramping up to The Event - even more so than similar "emotions/relationships first" serial shows.

nine-gear crow posted:It was literally some kid bought a website through Geocities in 1998 and threw the nine second remix of Whistle Stop he made online with a bunch of dancing hamster gifs and Disney didn't know what the gently caress to about it or even that it existed because it was the internet of 1998, digital copyright laws thankfully didn't exist yet. When the actual hamster dance song we know and love(?) today was made, Disney was like "nope, you can use the melody, but the clip is our IP, record your own version of it" and the rest is history. Which version is this, because the 1998 one is the only one that I know (and love).

Das Boo posted:Here's a fun thought for (I hope) next season: BES takes place in 1657. If we spend a little time kicking around, Mizu could be in London for the end of the world that is 1666. Lol at the possible narrative of Mizu being responsible for two of the most cataclysmic fires in the history of two separate continents.

Also, they show the example of that one guy who wakes up later and doesn't seem to have the same kind of training or field time.

We actually enjoyed it a lot as a standalone "what if". Plus, it was a nice breath before the pretty bleak last episode.

Open Source Idiom posted:Four episodes into The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy and I've concluded that this show rips. Agreed. The scenarios are legitimately funny, the depiction of anxiety is upsettingly resonant, and there are enough triggers of legitimately alien elements to keep you on your toes.

Haven't watched the new show yet, but maybe it's another callback? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7P4-lgDrHpI

SlothfulCobra posted:Hanna-Barbera did take one last shot at a prime time cartoon in 1982, and it bombed hard. Jokebook. No plots, kind of a sketch show format. This is loving dire...

Macaluso posted:Jon Hamm needs to be studied. There's something just so uniquely funny about him that I find really hard to put my finger on. Something about his handsome leading man look really enhances any kind of comedy he does. I literally must have some kind of voice blindness because I can't hear Jon Hamm... only Will Arnett.
