one Warmup Gone Wrong later i finally have a full ref for the man, the myth, the legend, the minor annoyance, the thorn in the side of petty criminals and more successful heroes the world over, the one and only GOLDEN BOY (civilian name TBD. it's gotta be something super boring like, Jim or Something)
#anonymous puzzler art#anonymous puzzler originals#villain coded comic#casual outfit was going for more of a 'guy who grew up on a farm' vibe but ended up more in the vicinity of Kurt Russell In Every 80s Film.#which to be honest? is also the correct vibe. so we work with it#i've definitely talked about this elsewhere but golden boy is very much a Superman Type Hero. crash landed from Elsewhere raised humbly#was classic hero Silver Fox's sidekick for many years and became a proper hero in his own right after he retired. very idealistic guy#genuinely believes for good for good's sake and helping people and the ability for bad people to change and all that#very Direct and not a fan of red tape. needless to say he is not the Favorite of the current establishment and is often treated as a joke#he is buck and davey's Most Consistent Heroic Adversary especially pre-Minnie

My desire to support a Biblical sitcom done in a respectful way vs. my hatred of the mockumentary style, FIGHT!
#it's a great thing i queued that post about 'the promised land'#because it did remind me to watch it#as a mashup of exodus and the office it's pretty brilliantly done#starting it in exactly the right place to set up the 'coworkers trying to keep this thing running' format#unfortunately it matched the style so well that it reminded me of all the reasons i hate 'the office'#it managed to overcome my suspension of disbelief in a way this style usually doesn't#because of course the israelites didn't have cameras so the documentary crew sits nicely in the realm of absurdity#but everything else about the office is not my sense of humor at all#the seven seconds of awkward silence after every single joke#the deadened soundscape that sucks the very life out of your soul#the way everyone speaks with the same inflections and tone in a very narrow emotional band#and everything is so understated as to erase almost all personality#no one is clever or witty#there is no banter no frenzy no outsized personalities#just everyone existing in this narrow band of faint absurdity#and the thing is i do like these characters!#joshua is adorable!#zipporah is darling#miriam is...kind of off-putting but i'll go with it#the egyptian is a brilliant concept#the moments of earnestness made me really feel for these people#but the question is if my interest in them can overcome my distate for this style#but great news: if you love the office this will be great for you

Hi there! So, I don't know if you’re in the mood to have your brain chemistry altered by the silly little lego show once more, or if you’ve just already done this, but I have a suggestion. Try watching the S4 special (specifically A Lifetime of Mistakes) for the millionth time, and then take that knowledge, along with the Wukong-Macaque/MK-Mei Hero and Warrior parallels we’ve been getting, and THEN go rewatch S1E6 AKA The Great Wall Race. Specifically through that particular lens.
And just… enjoy watching the decisions they, especially MK, make during a situation where an immortality-granting object is on the line. Have no major thoughts about how this is the first real fight we see Mei and MK have. Experience absolutely zero strong emotions as you watch MK’s pursuit of that object lead to him destroying things that both of them love. Just… have a lovely, peaceful rewatch.
But seriously, if you’re in the mood to let the silly little monkey show do its silly little monkey show thing, try rewatching that episode because it legitimately ruined my night.
Like… it’s not a perfect, one-to-one comparison. There’s a lot of differences, both nuanced and obvious, that differentiate the two situations.
But there’s something there and it’s been driving me insane, so feel free to come join me on the precipice of madness if you want.
*GRABS YOU*
I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR DAYS. ANON, YOU GET ME IN A WAY THAT NO ONE ELSE DOES, WE ARE TOGETHER IN ARMS.
But anyways *puts on sunglasses* I always have zero emotions when it comes to the lego show. Me? Completely calm and collected. I totally didn't have a breakdown while rewatching 1x06 to write this post.
But, just to meander on by the precipice of madness...
Mei: "*gasp* My bike! What is wrong with you! I thought you were my friend!" MK: "Okay! I did bad! I just- I really wanted that peach and I guess I got carried away! You know how much I love stone fruit. *sigh* I was never gonna win though—you're the racer, not me. I'm sorry." Mei: "Yeah I know—just, don't be dumb next time, okay?" MK: "All I can do is try!"
(1x06 The Great Wall Race)
-
Even without the added context of s4, it's easy to put together that the whole reason MK wants the peach to begin with is to become more like Monkey King. Case in point, 1x09:
MK: "I just wanted to be good enough..."
"...like you."
(1x09 Macaque)
-
MK in seasons 1-2 is pushed by his motivation to live up to Monkey King's legacy—to become stronger. He wants to have the power to protect and help his friends, but this often causes more trouble than it fixes (1x01, 1x02, 1x06, 1x09, 2x03, 2x06, 2x10).
And so, MK reaching for immortality and wanting to be "good enough", instead harming the relationships he's trying to help?
Macaque: "No that's YOU! You're the one always running off! Looking for more power, more sources of immortality—you're the one who wouldn't quit while were were ahead! Not the great sage, he's got to drag EVERYONE else into his mess!"
-
MK: "Why didn't he just stop, right here? He was already so much stronger than anyone ever needed to be!" Macaque: "Wukong didn't think so. He always felt he had to be stronger—more immortal."
-
Sun Wukong: "I just wanted to protect the people I cared about—to be strong enough. I lost sight of why I was doing any of it."
-
It's like history is repeating itself.
Which, this all obviously has a strong connection to 1x06, but it also is a strong connection to 2x06:
MK: "It means I need to be stronger! Be so powerful, that it'd be certain defeat to fight me!" Sandy: "Maybe you need a break little man, just kick back for a bit." MK: "Uh, did Monkey King ever take breaks?"
(2x06 Game On)
-
Which,
Sun Wukong: "Daw, don't be like that! Eat some fruit, soak up the sun—that's why I've been training so hard! Macaque: "What, so you can be the strongest?" Sun Wukong: "No! Well...maybe a little bit—but that's not the point! It's so that we don't have to worry about anything or anyone ever again! Just live a lazy life sittin' in the sun and eatin' fruit, and doing whatever we want!"
(4x11 A Lifetime of Mistakes)
-
Did Monkey King ever take breaks?—well, he did. It's here we start to see both the similarities and the differences between SWK and MK. AND IT DRIVES ME INSANE. They both reach after power in paranoia. They both try to protect the people they care about (and sometimes they do that through lying/leaving). They both want things to stay the same. Yet, SWK is arrogant where MK is self conscious. SWK goes off alone where MK tries to do it together. SWK can't plan for shit where MK is the designated plan man.
Sun Wukong VS MK and Monkey King VS Monkey Kid. How are they similar and how are they different?
And then if you throw Wukong-Macaque/MK-Mei Hero and Warrior parallels into all of it?
Peng: "The six-eared Macaque fighting side by side with his own replacements! Is there anything Wukong could do that would break his hold over you?" (4x13 Rip and Tear)
Is there anything MK could do that would turn Mei against him? I feel that it's SO telling that Mei wasn't included in this conversation:
Yellow Tusk: "I know full well what would happen should Azure fail. But- but he is my brother. I owe him my life." Sandy: "We get it! I'd do anything to help my friends. But at the cost of the world?" Pigsy: "I'm sorry pal, but NOTHING worth that price!"
(4x14 Better Than We Found It)
-
And here's why Mei is going to be the one to calm MK down like MK calmed her down during 3x10—
#SURPRISE SAMADHI FIRE PART 3 THEORY. anyways#rewatching 1x06 was terrible but I've also missed watching my little lego guys have actual fun#Instead of you know. The pain that seasons 2-4 are#god this show is so funny#They write jokes around the characters rather than the characters around the jokes and#it makes lmk's humor SO refreshing#I laugh every time MK goes "See you at the finish line ohohohohohohoh!'' after PIF. That joke lands without fail#tumblr deleted my og post and I had to rewrite it! very sad for me#this show makes me ill though so it's okay I had to motivation to do that#lmk meta#lmk#lego monkie kid#monkie kid#lmk MK#lmk SWK#lmk Sun Wukong#lmk Mei#asks#unhinged anon#samadhi fire part 3

the episode of new girl where the whole apartment is convinced a bag of aquarium rocks is crystal meth and they must hide it from both winston and the visiting cop evaluating him is up there for top tv episodes of all time
#every single joke and escalation lands perfectly#it's a legitimate masterclass of comedy#new girl#(it's 4x06 in case anyone wondered)

Ginger and Gingerbread or something, I don't know I didn't grow up with this show
#but the truth is NO ONE GREW UP WITH THIS SHOW!!! I came up with the project!!!#...well I guess that means I did grow up with it lol#anyway#Ginger (right) and Gingerbread (left) is a series about a sister and brother gingerbread cookies that get stuck in Gingerbread land#thanks to -and I'm not joking- a peppermint watch Gingerbread has that can traverse dimensions#It also included their Aunt(?) Cake and their cousins as well as the annoying next-door kid Sugar- I mean Sergeant#(who of course has an incessant crush on Ginger)#(but he does get better I promise)#theres also a human antagonist a cookie version of said antagonist and a “pretty” girl named Pepper who everyone (Ginger) hated#(and likewise Gingerbread had an incessant crush on Pepper but unlike Sergeant it does NOT get better with those two)#(also Pepper is Human Gingerbread Cookie whatever's cousin. So that's fun!)#The cousins were the most generic characters ever but I still love them#They were Cutie (the baby) Hungry (the... self explanatory) Gothy (also self explanatory) Scaredy (need I say more) and Sassy#Sassy was the bratty older teenager with a new boyfriend every week of course.#In the original series Sergeant was adopted by Aunt Cake and he and Sassy had a sibling rivalry#I may just make him an orphan now... lol... but I'll still make the Cake Cousins his found family#why did I not think of the cake cousins as a name sooner#anywho. This show gives me intense 2000s disney channel/CN vibes to me let me know what you think of this 3+ year old idea lol#art#digital art#krita#gingerandgingerbreadseries#gingerbread man#original series#also I gave Gingerbread the hat to improve his silhouette is it dumb or no (/hj)#story idea#original idea#oh I forgot someone! There was a cool girl named Angel(ica) and she was Scaredy's friend who became his girlfriend later in the show#i loved the two#oh hey should I make more of these drawings of the rest of the cast/the cast I want to keep

Said this in a post, but Kross having a dogfight (the airplane kind)
AUGH i keep forgetting to answer this but you’re so so right this is the realest actually
#pilot kross……. aughhh weeping wailing#answering asks#justanidiorartist asks#jaa!!#killer would have one of those small pointed fast jets#cross would have something similar but it’d probably be more heavy or bigger or whatever and not as meant for speed#kind of fucking insane about then having air fights with each other#circling each other and shouting things the other can’t hear#killer’s like some unknown pilot cross and whatever organization he’s under is familiar with#cause he keeps flying into their territory and doing stunts right where they can see him like he’s showing off#and cross volunteers and or is voluntold to go after him cause he’s good in the air#and he and killer fight but cross has to land cause killer fucked his shit that bad#and then cross gets all pissed cause hes never had that happen to him in a fight so he has this personal grudge against killer#and wants to beat him#so every time killer comes back cross immediately says he’ll handle him and goes after him himself#and this keeps happening over and over to the point it’s like. a Thing.#and they both don’t know anything about each other but they keep coming back to each other again and again#and there’s probably jokes among cross’s other crew mates (or whatever they are idk how. that works)#that he has a thing for that mystery pilot#and they probably have some kinda nickname for killer like. hawk or jackdaw or something. y’know it’s gotta be a bird#ANYWAY sorry i’m insane i think#is that anything

i know that watching videos of podcasting is cringe in a true self/false self way but as someone who also over-psychoanalyzes cishet boyfriends who "aren't on social media" this spoke to me
#really admire their commitment to the bit and when they land on that really solid zine joke?#they let the momentum carry them through#also theda hammel hot#this episode was also really fun because they did a great long digression about challengers#sorry for loving straightiolab but i must admit that gay guys have done far better things for podcast listeners than lesbians#forget dearth of lesbian bars what about lesbian podcasts that don't make me want to bite and claw#every lesbian podcast is some ex-youtuber being messy about her ex who's also an influencer#and then they all debate whether cate blanchett could top#it's simply not for me sorry for hating lesbian influencer culture#personal nonsense#Instagram

Does anyone else feel like Deep Breath is such a shitty episode of Doctor Who? That is, up until they go to the restaurant and then it immediately becomes one of the better Doctor Who episodes out there. Before I rewatched it when I got it on DVD, in my memory they were two seperate episodes that were a two parter. Like genuinely I think Deep Breath is so bad in the beginning but as soon as Clara and Twelve meet in the restaurant it's a whole different episode.
#Like I'm for silly goofy. I love renoundly hated Doctor Who stuff. I love the TV movie so so so much. I love Love and Monsters.#I'm here for the silly goofy.#But something about it feels tonally off in a lot of the Moffat era and I don't know why.#I know a lot of times the jokes just don't land for me. But on top of that it just kinda sticks out like a sore thumb.#It feels unnatural. Like the joke didn't fit in with the rest of the scene. It was just there.#And that's pretty much the entire first part of Deep Breath.#Idk. Opinions on Doctor Who very from every single person. No two Doctor Who fans have the same exact opinions.#So I was wondering if anyone else felt this way about Deep Breath.#Twelfth Doctor#12th Doctor#Clara Oswald

Ggrrr I wish disenchantment was better. I binged it all because I'm sick somebody talk to me about this.
#the groening show on netflix#it had so much potential#and i did enjoy it!!! plenty of the characters were awesome#but it tried to be too big. wanted to incorporate too much. i didn't like beans magic. it got really repetitive#it felt like a lot of the movement between “lands” was super unnecessary. and took up a lot of time that could have been used in narrative#development#and you know the most fucked up part is that there was a Canon wlw couple that was end game AND I DIDNT EVEN LIKE THEM TOGETHERRR#and the last seasons egregious hyperfocus on love specifically romantic love like#it was cringe im sorry!!! not great writing#im glad beans relationship w her dad got better but i didnt like how instantanious it felt#also obv. i hate the whole thing with prince derek and his pixie gf. ew. really weird#but there was so much good and it couldve been great#i still enjoyed it but it fell short in so many ways#HOW DO YOU HAVE A QUEER GIRL COUPLE THAT I DONT LIKE!!! ME!!! QUEER GIRL NUMBER 1!!!!!!#i like EVERY WLW SHIP#and mora x bean had potential but like#it seemed a lot of the time liek they didnt even really like eachother. they aggravated tf out of eachother and not in like a hehe gay ppl#who bicker type of way. it was very much lesbian couple written by straight man feeling. idk if thats true but its the vibe i got#to the end im sad elfo never really actionably got over his weird thing about bean. he just said he did#and him and miri/mop girl. ehhhhh#i like her but she should have had a more gradual introduction into the main cast because she really feels like an after thought#glad zog moved to the woods that seemed like the right move#bean kinda handing the kingdom off to the elves kinda felt like a cop out after thought#like she got all weird about this is their kingdom we stole it from them and then only rwally gave it up after she got something that she#wanted more#please let me remake this show!!!!!!!!#also steam land!!! i like the concept but the execution and the travellimg back and forth between the two#the biggest issue this show suffered with though was repetition.#animation was fun. i enjoyed the use of 3d especially in later seasons#a lot of the jokes were funny but a lot just fell short.

#so. the one from 1x00 and 4x10 huh#Originally this started as me cataloguing every time MK is forced to his hands and knees#However in all honesty#I think it's more about him standing up again. Like it happens a lot#They make a joke about it in 2x09#''Why do I always land on my face?'' he really fucking does#But he also stands back up again#And I'm like. We've had several scenes where MK standing was THE climax of the scene.#But we've also had scenes where MK being sent to his knees is the climax. So like#You know.#Standing and Kneeling motif both lovers and enemies I guess#Actually something something MK kneeing motif something something SWK kneeling while Tripitaka puts the circlet on him#lmk#lmk parallels#lego monkie kid#lmk MK#monkie kid
