Wheels on Meals: I'd never heard of this before, saw it was Jackie chan, and then was very confused where all the fights were for the first hour lol. All the goofy stuff was great, but I'm glad it ended with the castle scenes and more action. I liked it, makes me want to rewatch some of the Jackie chan movies I watched as a kid. 3.5/5

Down and dirty duck: The animation, art style, and music was somehow actually good. Individual scenes were somehow actually good too, especially meeting the duck and Martha, the cop, and the inexplicably kind of sweet finale between Willard and the duck. There's a lot of dumb poo poo too but it easily clears the forbidden zone, which I'm going to retroactively drop to a 2/5 so I can give this good duck a 3/5.

Dirty Duck

When I was about 15 years old, I accidentally slammed my fingers in a car door in my parents' garage. My mom had already walked into the house before I even left the car, so nobody saw it happen. My entire hand was trapped in the car door, which was fully closed and locked, and three of my fingers were crushed under the frame. The pain was excruciating. I yelled of course, but because of the soundproofing in the walls, nobody heard me at first. Trying to pull my hand out was pointless and only hurt more, and I had no keys so I couldn't open the door. I started to realize that nobody was going to help me, at least not right away, and that I was probably going to be stuck there for a while. I stood there for what felt like forever, in overwhelming pain the entire time, shouting for help at intervals and probably sounding more and more desperate.

I remember wondering to myself at some point if maybe my nervous system would adapt to the pain after a few minutes, or if my hand might go numb or start to hurt less. But no, the entire time I was stuck, I was in constant agony, and at no point did it let up even a little. In fact as time went on and I got more and more frustrated, the pain intensified. By the time my mom finally heard my shouting and came to help, I felt like I was going to be trapped there forever. When I think back on this I realize that I don't really remember the initial injury or how much it hurt, I just remember how endless the experience felt. The pain was intense, but the exasperation of being confined somewhere with absolutely no way out was the thing that got to me, and that made the brief time I was stuck feel like hours. Dirty Duck (1974) has a runtime of 75 minutes.

Interstella 5555: good poo poo. Began and ended at particularly high points, but good throughout. Great fit between music and animation. 4 out of 5

Good reaction image for watching down and dirty duck lol

I think that's broadly how I felt about it (though less positive), some actually interesting/funny bits mixed in with a lot of poo poo. Also I think the only other gross out animation I've ever really watched is Ren and stimpy so it didn't feel like a played out thing
