After all these years, ‘I Remember You’ is still one of the great highlights of Adventure Time Storytelling. And not just in the basic ‘what???? Silly children’s cartoon does something SAD??? HOLY SHIT MIND BLOWN’ way. But with the execution of that Something Sad. How it manages to pack so many Complex Emotions into just 11-minutes of television. And especially the way it utilizes the basic Adventure Time format for that purpose.

So Adventure Time is a Board-based show. Each episode has an outline pitched and written down by the writer’s room, and then this outline goes to a team of (usually) two Storyboard Artists who develop that simple outline into a full story. And with the show’s art-style deliberately eschewing staying perfectly ‘on-model’ in favor of having the animators take direct reference from how the different storyboarders draw the characters

And the show being generally extremely versatile in terms of themes and tone - AT has allowed a lot of their Storyboarders to really express themselves and their unique artistic vision as part of the Big Collaborative Narrative that is Adventure Time. 

Now, the Boarders who worked on ‘I Remember You’ are Cole Sanchez and Rebecca Sugar. These two were a Storyboarding Duo from the start of S4 and until Sugar left the AT Crew during S5, and they always struck me as a curious combination. I think really from all of the individual boarders working on AT during that time, these two really are the closest to having like… Totally Opposite Artistic Sensibilities as boarders. 

With Sugar favoring a style that is very loose and sketchy and also very rounded. Focusing on expressions and subtle body language and lighting. And being famous for going deep in depth into Big Moments of Emotional Catharsis

And Sanchez having a very clear art style that emphasizes strong silhouettes and clear lines that suggest flatness. Focusing more on major poses and the character’s positions in the space. And having just a really great eye for AT’s brand of silly humor.

Like, I almost kinda suspect these two were paired together so they can each cover for the other’s “weakspots” in writing ‘Adventure Time’. 

And there were a few episodes that did some really interesting stuff with this very contrasting pair - ‘Jake the Dog’ is another example. Giving most of the Farmworld scenes to Sugar and most of the Time Room scenes to Sanchez both plays to their personal strengths as storyboarders and helps to emphasize the strong emotional contrast between these two scenarios. 

And ‘I Remember You’ is actually kinda unique among Adventure Time episodes cause… Most episodes will have the two boarders alternate between working on the episode throughout it. Like you’d have Boarder A draw a bit and then Boarder B and then Boarder A again… But “I Remember You” is divided between Sanchez and Sugar… basically perfectly in the middle.

So the entirety of the first half of the episode was boarded by Sanchez

Until Ice King pushes Marceline and then leaves the room in shame.

And then, Sugar takes over.

And, like, even if you don’t know anything about the Behind the Scenes of Adventure Time or who Cole Sanchez and Rebecca Sugar even are - the Shift is noticeable. The shift in tone, in narrative focus, in the subtleties in which the characters are drawn. 

The entire first half of the episode has this thin veneer of just being a Silly Goofy Ice King Episode. Sanchez’s talent for Adventure Time’s brand of comedy is on full display… but there is also this underlying feeling that Something is Happening just under the surface. And these hints of the Big Emotions of ‘IRY’ expressed via Sanchez’s kinda goofy style really create this balance between putting the audience into a false sense of security that this is just a Very Normal Episode about two characters hanging out and the Tension constantly brewing in the subtext. 

And then it all comes to a blow.

And then the Shift happens. And now we are in Sugar’s court.

And this subtle shift in the artstyle and storytelling also coincide with Marceline finally openly expressing her feelings and the Reveal of Simon and Marcy's shared past. The episode changes focus from Ice King's silly antics to Marceline's feelings. Everything changes, everything in the first part of the episode gets recontextualized and... even on the most basic level, the episode is now Noticeably Different.

I would almost say that Sanchez’s half of the episode has Ice King define the tone, while Sugar’s half of the episode has Marceline define the tone. But more than anything it’s the catharsis. The reveal and release of those emotions that were building up so expertly through the Sanchez half of the episode. All of the Sugar-boarded scenes in this episode are really heartbreaking on their own, just through the tragedy of the story and Sugar’s expert knowledge of howto convey emotion in the visual medium - but it’s so enchanted by what came before it.

“I Remember You” is truly a great testament to how ‘Adventure Time’ could use every aspect of its medium to tell a great story in such a short time.

PEYTON LIST and MICHAEL CIMINO in GIRL HAUNTS BOY

[sammyxmiguelx]

So, I just finished watching Girl Haunts Boy, I thought it was a good movie with a nice soundtrack. DID anyone else clock this little number? I thought it seemed familiar and then I remembered, Tory and Miguel also had a little moment like that.

Boy Haunts Boy:

Cole looks at the ghost boy in front of him. Moving to a new town and house was one thing, but it was another thing completely when you move into the bedroom of a century old ghost boy trapped inside of said house you move into. "So, if you promise not to do any ghost stuff around my mom, then I'll take you wherever you want to go. Deal?"

The ghost boy, Y/N smiles as he shakes Cole's hand. "You've got yourself a deal, pal. Let's paint the town. Make the scene."

"I don't know what you're saying, but we can go out and hangout. Chill."

"What's chill?"

Cole laughed. "To hangout with friends. You know, a get together."

Y/N nods and grins. "Why ain't that the bees knees."

The Over The Garden Wall 10th Anniversary stop motion short by Aardman & Patrick McHale premieres today on Cartoon Network's YouTube channel & social media!!!

HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OVER THE GARDEN WALL!!!

Halloween Cartoon spotlight: Over the Garden Wall (2014)

Somewhere lost in the clouded annals of history lies a place that few have seen—a mysterious place called the Unknown. So when the awkward young teen Wirt and his younger half-brother, the hyperactive and enthusiastic Greg stumble into this mysterious place, a quest find their way back to home starts. One filled with beginnings and ends, meetings and farewells with the quirky, the strange, the melancholic and the threatening.

Created by former storyboard artist for The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack and Adventure Time Patrick McHale, this legendary Cartoon Network miniseries is the quintessential autumn cartoon. The Unknown couldn't be better named; both inviting and cozy while simultaneously having a sinister underbelly, it raises a lot of questions about the nature of the events happening within as well as the nature of its inhabitants... that the show wisely decides to leave unanswered. Why explain the nature of this strangely hypnotic setting of New England inspired beauty, classic witches and singing frogs, when you can just experience a magic sense of nostalgia for somewhere that doesn't even exist? Instead, every small moment and character sticks out for their uniqueness, charisma... or fear.

In true traditional Cartoon Network fashion, it manages to be frightening and thematically challenging in ways that some people might consider boundary pushing, as heavy subject matter like suicidal ideation and depression aren't off the table, yet doing such a great job in the balancing act it shows kids CAN handle these topics. For every laugh and silly visual, it poignantly pulls the heartstrings where it counts, with Wirt's growing relationship with his brother Greg being the heart of the show.

Frankly, there's little I can say about it that hasn't been said already. Now a decade after its release, it has aged like wine and will most likely continue to do so in the following years.

Chelsea player ratings vs Liverpool: Is Robert Sanchez really good enough?! Goalkeeper struggles again while Cole Palmer fails to spark as Blues fall to Anfield defeat

Chelsea suffered their second loss of the Premier League season as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at table-toppers Liverpool on Sunday. The Blues started the brighter of the two sides but fell behind in the 29th minute after Mohamed Salah scored from the spot after Levi Colwill foolishly fouled Curtis Jones. Cody Gakpo then had a goal disallowed before Jones thought he had won his team another…
