I'm obsessed with the slasher au, tell us more if you have more? I really like the way Jay is in his dynamics with Tim and Alex
Oh most definitely!
Have a little chart I made aswell. Just for fun.
Tumblr media
And here's some little details about the characters I didn't mention in the original post! Along with more details on the ones that I did.
Tim
•he/they
•rock. Rocks are easy to bash somebody's head in.
•He's actually nonverbal, mostly using sign language to communicate. I like to think Jay saw this one day and decided to learn it on his own, just so he could know what the guy is saying.
•they only put up with Alex when they have to, not straight up being rude for Jay's sake. He feels like Alex overcomplicates everything, taking way too much time with it. It's just cruel to kill somebody slowly, torturing them to death for the sake of entertainment.
Jay
•he\him
•Not a fighter, not by a long shot. Bro has lost every fight he's been in.
•Does not blink. Seriously Jay has a hard-core staring problem. Alex will often point it out because he doesn't even realise he's doing it.
•Whenever he wants to film something and Alex is either too busy or isn't in the mood, he goes out and watches whatever masky is doing. He thinks he's being sneaky by hiding in the bushes or behind a tree in the dark; but masky knows he's there, that blinking red light always gives him away. But does he care? Not really. After a while he just accepted Jay as something he wouldn't get rid of. Kind of like a stray cat that just shows up sometimes.
•if you've seen the series, you know how Jay films people without permission. This one takes that up to the max; stalking them, recording them in their homes, just for his own entertainment. Bro has some weird hobbies.
•tried eating somebody's eye, he's always wanted to know what the texture would be but Alex stopped him; quoting "bloodborn illness" as a reason not to.
Alex
•he/him
•his weapon of choice is a gun, obviously, but he only uses it when he has to.
•Out of the four, Alex takes his 'job' the most seriously. He's a perfectionist at heart so he takes great time and effort into setting up his work; making sure each part of his plan is executed perfectly and efficiently.
•He considers what he does as an art form, not as 'senseless killing' like he perceives tim and Brian to be doing. If he's going to take a life then it's going to be worth it, he's better than those filthy creatures getting off on somebody's head being smashed in with a pickaxe. It's not a snuff film guys! It's just art that you wouldn't understand he swears!
•sees it as his job to keep Jay out of trouble; he swears that guy can't survive on his own, always doing something stupid.
Brian
•He/it
•you can't go wrong with the classic knife. But he also likes a little bit of strangulation, it usually depends on how he's feeling.
•I can see him being like two completely different people. Brian is kind, sweet, and overall a nice guy, where hoodie is a downright narcissistic dickhead. Like jekyll and Hyde but it's just one guy who really likes the scream franchise.
•did I mention he likes scream?
•has a sort of "nuh uh" and "fym nuh uh" relationship with Alex. It loves to mess up his meticulously planned scenes, moving things so slightly out of place that he only notices after filming. He finds the way Alex's face scrunches up in anger funny.
•Jay tried recording them *once* and hoodie immidetly grabbed the camera and smashed it to bits. He doesn't put up with it like masky does, he sees it as evidence that needs to be destroyed. It would have killed Jay after that if it wasn't for masky telling him that it was a normal thing that he did and wasn't any harm.

Thoughts on DM3. Don’t hate me. 😂
DM3 was not a bad film, I have seen a lot worse and I even went to see it at the cinema a few times. I’d rate it a 6/7 out of ten.
The problem was with it, it felt outdated with an 80s obsessed villian. Don’t get me wrong, I think Bratt is a great idea and I get the concept of it but just maybe with his own film, not in DM.
Aswell, I felt they took a lot of things away from us that were just getting started.
- Agnes sold Fluffy the unicorn though in DM2 she would have screamed the house down if anything happened to him and he was such a big part of the merch. But no, gone, sold to some lil blonde.
- We didn’t see much of Grus freeze-ray nor his tank of a car. - not a big deal but these lil things make the film what it is.
-There was no Fred. - again like the point above. I would have also have liked to have seen Jillian, I thought she was a great and (annoying) addition to DM2.
-Gru didn’t really bother with the girls or interact with any of them, well a part from Agnes. He didn’t even put them to bed like he used to and just left Lucy to do it all. He didn’t really seem supportive of her with her trying to be a mum I thought. If that was my husband I would have kicked his arse lol!
- Margo got engaged to some weird kid and Gru was nowhere to be seen but in DM2 he was this overprotective dad that would have broke his nose or something lol! I know Lucy had it in hand but…..ya know. I wanted to see the overprotective dad mode.
- We didn’t see much of the house which we seen a lot of in DM1/2 and I thought that was such a shame. Why couldn’t Dru just come to Grus house or something lol
- I disliked how the writers wrote out Dr Nefario (we won’t mention the actors name and no one would of cared if someone else was voicing him) but what a lazy way to just freeze him in carbinite. Gru didn’t really seem that upset over it though the Dr had been like a dad to him. Like ?????
- Dru wasn’t bad, it was kinda nice seeing Gru have some male company as if he was down the pub with a mate but I also found it odd they had all of a sudden put on him the temptation to go back to villainy when in DM2 he had that temptation but he wasn’t interested in the slightest. He just wanted to be a father, get a job, get his girl and that was it. Every scene was perfect, the actors, writers etc put all there heart and soul into it and you couldn’t have put anymore into it really, even if you tried. Gru was really at his peak in DM2. Maybe I’ve got it wrong. Idkkkk.
- I didn’t mind the Minions and personally I never do, I think they just add to the film and I don’t find them annoying. I actually liked the prison scene, I thought that was a pretty good idea tbh.
It even felt like at times the animated characters didn’t want to even be doing the storyline in DM3. 😂
3 obviously made a lot of money because everyone was still hyped around DM2 but came out of the cinema or wherever they first watched it empty handed.
Yes it’s ok chucking in a scene here and there with a treehouse or an Agnes and Gru moment to put in some heart but it was almost forced. The writers said themselves they struggled and just wrote for themselves which I found really sad as there is so much you can do with this franchise I think.
I’m ngl, I am a bit nervous about DM4 as I think this will be its last chance to survive but the trailer looks amazing and I’m already won over by the baby Gru Jr. I wanted them to have a baby in DM3!!!!! Really DM4 should have been 3.
Should have rhey aged the girls up. Yes and no. Maybe a bit? Tbh personally, I don’t really care. It keeps there innocence but I would like to see Gru bonding with them again.
It wasn’t all bad though, I liked Lucy trying to be a mom and the animation has definitely stepped up a notch to the point that Gru is pale AF now and they all look a bit different. Aswell the actors, Carell, Kristin did a great job as always.
This is all my own opinion so don’t come at me 🤣.

Greetings it is i, Ubb! the one and only. I did indeed try to participate in @donelywell s "Nine-tailed travel guide through the multiverse" art event that was hip happening during the summer. Some months have passed since Part 4 of my submissions and whilst i said and sorta promised quite a few things in that post these promises have remained unfullfilled for a few reasons and will remain so for quite some time.
Quick version: I was not ready and i still am not. If i had to give a proper guess/estimation i would say that it will probably have to be until like, idk 2 years? until i am ready to give a proper submission for the event, better late than never right?
Long version: First the reason for parts 1-4 being so... meh (in my opinion) was ofcourse due to the rough state my mental health was in at the start of the summer, but i have already talked extensivly about that. Secondly the reason for why i do not have anything major to present for Part 5 like what was promised is due to a few factors.
My mental health was still kinda meh
Stuff in my personal life
Stuff in the world
But that which had probably the biggest impact on me was that the three things i just mentioned led to me having some time to think and do a whole lot of introspection. I tried to get to the bottom of alot of my thoughts and feelings on things in the world, one of those subjects being Sonic. "Why do I love the Sonic franchise so much?", "Why do I call myself a Sonic fan?", "What *exactly* do I love about the blue boy & friends?" and such questions were something i contemplated most of all and i did come to a few conclusions.
I am yet to fully find i way to properly summerize my love for the Sonic Franchise in a coherent way that someone else might understand but i do know now that its not Nine or AUs. Dont you DARE misunderstand me: I most certianly still love AUs and Nine but they are not the reason i fell in love with the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise in the first place.
And with my mental state still not having fully recovered reaching these conclusions my desire to work on something for this event evaporated quickly. Last month i also had a quite scary moment where i was confronted with my own mortality, this put alot of things into perspective for me.
I think the best way to properly recover my mental health real good is to not work on things that only make me kinda happy, until i feel real goodly again i only wish to work on that which makes me super happy. With that in mind if you read the quick version you would know that if i had to give a proper guess/estimation i would say that it will probably be like, idk 2 years? until i am ready to give Donelywell's "Nine-tailed travel guide through the multiverse" the proper chance/submission i feel it deserves. I have i vision for a relativly short little story with Nine and this event feels like the perfect place to do such a thing, but i am not ready for it, not right now atleast.
What next? I did say in part 4 that you would not have complete radio silence from me but thats another promise i failed to keep. True i have not been doing nothin, ive been working on my Whisper the Wolf design in fact but thing is she has taken so much time to complete, a few months have passed since i started work on her and im still not 100% done with her just yet, but soon.
So for the immidiete future expect Whisper the Wolf: Ubb Edition! But after that... i am not sure. For Sonic i will probably focus entirely on my take on mainline canon but Sonic is probably not all that i will focus on. The Game Awards is in 2 days and it is confirmed that after 3 months of silence we will FINALLY be getting a new Borderlands 4 trailer, with gameplay this time aswell! And i am a massive, MASSIVE Borderlands fanatic so that might influence me to potentially do some borderlands stuffs aswell, we shall see.
So to recap and summerize: Next is Whisper the Wolf but after that i do not know and cannot say for certain, i promise nothing.
Until then i hope you who reads this has a good time! and i thank you for getting all the way down here. Also i suggest going to bed at a reasonable time and shower regularly, does wonders for your mental health, 10/10 would recomend.

(Was making part 5 here with this song/poem in mind, it is very good and helped promt my big introspection phase)

First I love your art.
Second do you have fav gen od daltons I mean do you most Like daltons from Lucky Luke comics or from Lucky Luke cartoon or from some other media.
Hey there!!
Tysm I'm really glad ppl love my lucky luke and my art in general i really appreciate it ⁠♡♡
oh boy!im going to use this post for photo-dumping my pics for these bois, as i said in one of my previous post this series has a big part in my heart i just adore lucky luke and the Daltons.
And now to your questions itself, yeah i do have couple of fav piece of the lucky luke media that i love more than the others cause i grew up with em the most like
For the comics, Achdé art has always been my favourite, not saying that the others aren't good (like them as well)it's just that the expression of the Daltons in it is PRICELESS just look at em :
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They look like wet cats whenever they're sad and i love, also just look at William going "yippee" and Averell being a mamas boy look at how happy they look!!i love how he captures the anger with joe aswell , the artstyle is just*muah* chefs kiss even luke looks dupe in it my bbg never looked better.
Tumblr media
Moving on to the shows!! Even though not alot of episodes of the new adventure of lucky luke has aired in the channel i was watching on but the Daltons episodes was one of the few that aired , and i just wanted to say that I adore the art style and how it's old comic accurate and how they're face colour change due to their moods:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and ofc how can i talk of the Daltons without mentioning their own spin-off, and yeah i know that the artstyle doesn't look like the original style but I'm thinking that's bc in the 2010s xilam (the studio) had chosen to make the lineart in their works lighter or even remove it.
but tbh i don't care much about it i think it was an amazing show and it has aired all the 2 season in the channel and it's really a funwacth to me to rewacth, love how they gave them more personality especially jack and William they deserved it+ they look so silly in a GOOD way like look at them :
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Stillest men alive (yes i know they are spousesd to be "dangerous" but cmon just look)
And don't get me started on go west! That movie is a 10/10 one of the best things in the lucky luke franchise, the animation is so smooth and the new characters are so loveable and Luke looked so handsome in the style and ofc the Daltons had their roles in it and they never fail to make me laugh like always and their expressions?? Hello
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Joe was a whole rabid dog the entire movie and i live for it and for Averell there are NO thoughts behind his eyes, jack and William were just doing nothing but giving worried looks at their brothers but it was kinda funny in a way to me.
I hope that was the answer you were looking for, and i would love to hear your thoughts as well on it because this fandom is kinda small so it's nice to listen to others opinion.
Well that's about it, have a wonderful day pal!!

What pokemon would Hitori-Gotou a.k.a bocchi choose?
So this idea literally came out of nowhere when i was zoning out at school, and so i though this will be a good topic of what our favorite anime girl with social anxiety will pick as they're pokemon partner.
Now, when I was searching around about this topic for deeper information, I've found this art/edit on reddit by drawricks that got posted on r/BocchiTheRock and it kinda make sense that she will have this exact pokemon.
THE HEARING POKEMON: AUDINO
Tumblr media
If you didn't know who's that pokemon is, it's name is audino, that originally came from the gen 5 of pokemon game that's called "pokemon black and white"
And you might be wondering, why would I think that pokemon is suitable for her? or that'll be the pokemon of her choice? And well, the answer came from its pokedex that says "Using the feelers on its ears, it can tell how someone is feeling or when an egg might hatch."
Now knowing her, she's having a hard time to socialize with others, unless there's someone who actually drag her around. And let's say if nijika or anyone else didn't talk to her and she's feeling lonely or sad, perhaps her pokemon will be the one who make her feel better. Or there will be scenario where she have to talk to someone and audino can feel her feeling, that'll be the time it will help bocchi-girl escape the situation. It is indeed a convenient pokemon for her.
But in the other side, I do feel that it's not really matching for her neither since she might be got scared already to the pokemon when they first met (due to the anxiety, perhaps it's also applied to the pokemon too)
The other pokemon which I think would be fitting for her is...
THE WHISPER POKEMON: WHISMUR
Tumblr media
Whismur are the pokemon that first available on the third generation of pokemon game that's called "pokemon ruby and sapphire" (there's also emerald for the third version)
Now I thought this pokemon would be really suitable for her due to the same liking and personality for the both of them. Both is timid, like to whisper, and very into music. (and also cute aswell)
At some scenario perhaps the both of them can make they're own music with the help of each other because of music liking. And the both of them probably going to get well rather quickly due to they're same personality and liking.
I didn't actually though about this pokemon by myself, I actually find one of the comments in the same post of the reddit art/edit I mentioned earlier, saying that "perhaps whismur fits bocchi more due to the same personality" which I can kind of agree on. Now moving on to the last pokemon and that is..
THE NEW SPECIES POKEMON: MEW
Tumblr media
So the last pokemon that I think would be in the list for her is, mew. Now all of you might be wondering why mew? Well the first reason is that I've found a art about it aswell and the second of all is that it sort of having some of bocchi nature (or whatever it called). Now, mew is a pokemon that exist right from the start of this franchise, the gen 1 a.k.a "pokemon red and blue" (there's yellow version of pokemon aswell or the third version of the game).
Tumblr media
Art by: Canis(?)
Now, based from the pokedex of the gen 1 that says "So rare that it is still said to be a mirage by many experts. Only a few people have seen it worldwide." And do you know how many people have actually realized about bocchi existence? Yep, only a few and that is only her parent and also her friend by now.
And just from that one pokedex i am now manage to connect a dot between this two of a match. And the gen 2 pokemon or pokemon gold pokedex to be specific say something like this "Apparently, it appears only to those people who are pure of heart and have a strong desire to see it." And I could assure you why it's relatable to her aswell.
When you watch the first episode of the anime nobody actually noticed her right? Except for nijika herself, and appearantly she's trying to find another guitarist too. With her strong desire to find another guitarist for the band survival and also her pure heart (atleast for me since she was the most kind also the one who make the most positive changes many time) she manage to find bocchi. Just like how you supposedly find mew.
And one more thing is that, as you can see mew and bocchi just seem like a normal individual with nothing special about them at first glance. But when you get to know them more you'll find out that the both of them is extremely talented. With bocchi that's skilled in playing guitar and mew that's skilled in its own strength (even tho not THAT powerful but still are one of the strongest in gen 1).
But some of the negative thing about it, is the personality of the both of them. In the anime you can tell that mew is actually a pokemon that's energetic and also playful while bocchi is the exact opposite. But despite that I personally think that mew is the best fitting pokemon for her because it resemble her alot (mostly) and also because I think it's cool that bocchi are actually rare human being at some point.
But what do you think? Comment below (or above?) About which Pokemon resemble her the most. Welp I guess that's the end of this first blog, honestly this activity are not that bad at all I have alot of fun (sorta) making this blog and all. I were like finishing this blog after one month and all but who cares? Atleast I still do make it right? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
Anywhoo see ya on the flip side! (Sorry for wrong and broken english)
(also I was about to add a jigglypuff, but because of its personality where it got annoyed when they sing and the listener sleep they'll be drawing on its face making me kinda rethink about it and all)

Each of the Theatre crew’s favorite video game + My sing 2 oc
Buster: Mario party (idk why it just seems his type of game) or board games, any games that require multiple people I guess
Ms Crawly: doesn’t play video games, but does play board games or party games, she’s actually pretty good
Rosita: she definitely plays Cooking Mama, or any games her children play, she has a family game night with her kids, and plays with them in their T.V or just plays party games
Gunter: probably plays Just Dance, or plays wii sports, he would definitely encourage others to join in aswell lol
Clay: ooo he probably plays chess or checkers, or even some card games, and for video games, he would play Guitar hero (because Ash introduced him and showed him the game) he would try to play his songs in the game, and complain “that the game is way harder than playing guitar” or “this is not how you play the song” lol
Now for the young ones
Ash: Guitar hero which is the most obvious, she had been playing it since she was 12, another game she played was Animal Crossing, she just loved how calm and comfy it was (she immediately got New Horizons when it came out and no one had seen her for days until the crew found her at her house farming for miles and bells) and finally she would’ve played Monster Prom in her teenage years, why? She was finding something to play, found it on steam, downloaded it and never looked back. That was probably how she got obsessed on shipping Ryan, Johnny and Zotz. (She was probably a Brian/Damien shipper, and a Scott/Oz shipper cuz why not)
Porsha: liked playing Animal crossing but that’s probably all, she mostly spends time in social media than playing video games but she does join in when the others play it
Meena: Meena would love playing any calm, relaxing and comfy game like Animal crossing, cooking mama, or those organizing games, or just comfy games in general
Nooshy: definitely plays Just Dance, or Mario Cart (she forces others to play it with her, but she usually wins) probably has played Splatoon, and loved the music, Also has played Undertale, had an Undertale phase, and even dressed up as sans for a bit by wearing a blue hoodie, she loved the soundtrack and has it in her playlist
Ryan: Just Dance (I guess every dancer is gonna have just dance) he would force Johnny and Zotz to dance with him as Zotz would do decent while Johnny would fail, due to Johnny only knowing how to breakdancing and simple moves. Ryan would also love playing Pokémon, since it was his childhood game, his first game was Pokémon X, and after that he loved the games and series, (his favorite Pokémon is Blaziken)
Johnny: He definitely has played Pokémon as well but not as long as Ryan. (His favorite Pokémon was Pangoro since it reminded him of his Dad and uncles) He would’ve also played Super Smash Bros Ultimate (he mains Wolf and Lucario) and finally, he would’ve played rhythm games like Beat Saber, or Project Sekai.
Zotz: Zotz would’ve played fantasy type games like, fire emblem, his favorite was Fire Emblem Fates Birthright, or Final Fantasy 7, He also liked playing Monster Hunter games like Monster Hunter 4 ultimate (hehe my first monster hunter game) But in all his favorite video game franchise would have to be. . . . . . . Drumroll plsssss, Kingdom Hearts :D, his favorite game would be Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days and his favorite character would be either Xion or Roxas. He would try to explain the plot of Kingdom Hearts to Ryan and Johnny, in which Ryan sorta got it but got confused at some parts, while Johnny couldn’t understand any of it and that whole time was confused
(I’m so tired imma go to bed now:D)

Tell me abt Stone n Texty friendship. What do they do when hanging out. How many times has Texty rickrolled Stone
I asked my bestie @sinnamonbunannon for help with answering this one since she's at least half of the good content for this dynamic and she gave me just. The best answer. Everything from here on out is what she messaged me, go give her some love and also feel free to ask her about these two aswell!
Stone knows exactly when how and why Texty will rickroll them at all times, but is at peace with this counter, and in fact, looks forward to the next time- Texty most likely knows they know, but it's a cute little ritual of theirs. Besides, Texty gets to devise more and more ingenious ways to do it, and Stone ranks each occurrence in creativity, skill, and surprise. Some are better than others, but they have never gotten a bad score.
I like to imagine the duo like digging into wikipedia rabbitholes a lot. Yes, Stone could summon the information at a mere thought, but it's far more fulfilling of an experience to discover it all with their bestie, and also play "Can you Shrek It", wherein they discover how many jumps you have to make to connect literally any topic to the Shrek franchise.
I also imagine they could just sit in a room and parallel play for hours at a time and have it be the highlight of their day.
All in all, a lot of the things they do together are Deeply Silly, but that also marks just how safe Stone feels to be unrepentantly silly and irresponsible with Texty.

hi! okay so i just finished ahsoka, LOVED it (mostly bc all of it was completely female led which you don’t see often these days). i loved ahsoka, sabine, shin, baylan and thrawn particularly. i’m a major wolfwren shipper lol.
okay but here’s the thing; watching ahsoka has made me want to consume more star wars media. before ahsoka, i only watched the sequels and the other movies before when i was like 12. soo i have no idea where to start.
i believe beginning with star wars the clone wars would make sense, but do i need to rewatch the prequel films in order to understand the clone wars (i basically remember nothing from the prequel movies) or can i jump right into it? and after that there’s all these disney plus shows, like the mandalorian which doesn’t seem connected to the movies as far as i can tell - and then there’s star wars rebels! idk, i guess i’m asking if you could give me any advice on where to start and follow on from there? pretty please???
sure!!! im just going to give you where I, personally, would advice on beginning. so I'd say to look around with some other blogs aswell!
disney+ has a chronological list set up if you want to watch everything as a marathon of some sorts. I'd say now is a good time for a marathon too – the next tv show is only coming out in 01/24/24, so you'll have plenty of time to catch up on everything.
there's also the infamous Machete Order, which takes off tv shows and focuses solely on the movies. I wouldn't personally go this route if you wanna really get into star wars as a whole, but if you just want to be up to date, it's a good place to start too – a bit confusing, maybe. They flip the order quite a bit to make it all flow better as a narrative; the prequels are, actually, just an elongated flashback.
Here's how it goes: a new hope, the empire strikes back, the phantom menace, attack of the clones, revenge of the sith, return of the jedi, the force awakens, the last jedi AND the rise of skywalker.
If you don't want to go Machete but per release, it's just the Original Trilogy, The Prequels, The Clone Wars cartoon and then The Sequels. It's very confusing though. I only do it like this if I'm watching it with someone I know has no knowledge whatsoever of the franchise, Vader's identity… all the nice little retcons disguised as plot twists.
Now, if the person does know about it all, which I think you do by the question, I'd say just go chronological order as it's put into the disney+ list. if you just wanna watch the movies first, it's prequels, original and then sequels. I'm gonna write the list with the tv shows sprinkled into it:
Phantom Menace, Attack of The Clones, The Clone Wars, Revenge of The Sith, The Bad Batch, Solo, Obi Wan Kenobi, Rebels, Andor, Rogue One, A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, The Mandalorian s1-2, The Book of Boba Fett, The Mandalorian s3, Ahsoka, Resistance, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi aaaaaand The Rise of Skywalker.
Oof! big chunk. Adventures of Young Jedis is a fun little cartoon that before everything, but it's very much targeted towards children beneath, say, 11 years old. But still fun to watch if you want to. Visions are independent and non-chronological episodes, so you don't need to include it if you don't want to. I recommend it tho. They're very well done. Tales of the Jedi are also non-chronological, but they follow and study characters such as Ahsoka, Dookan, Qui-Gonn. I highly recommend watching it after the prequels, but again, they are not necessary per se to understand the scope as a whole. Resistance is… Resistance. I didn't enjoy it as much i wished i could (i love the rebels, i love everything about them as a storyline), but they do provide some much needed information that bridges the original trilogy and the sequels.
Now. The Clone Wars. TCW has their fair amount of filler episodes, and it is a seven seasons big chunk. It also was not released with episodes as chronological, so you'd have episodes that released first but were placed before in the timeline. so no judgement if you decide to go Machete on it. Here's a list to the episodes that contains all the most important arcs in it:
https://www.kotaku.com.au/2023/07/the-essential-clone-wars-episodes-every-star-wars-fan-should-watch/
I think. I think that's it!! Hope this helps you anon. I'm always here if you want to!!

I have absolutely no words. OP you're an absolute genius. I've noticed the Scraptrap one before but none of the other ones. Holy shit.
Now this lead me down a rabbit hole of symbolism (that probably wasnt intentional as far as this goes, i think the designs themselves were definitely supposed to represent halloween stuff but the symbolism definitely wasnt intentional im just connecting dots that dont need to be connected) with these designs because after I saw this I couldn't get it out of my head. Believe me when I tell you it was lodged up there.
It's pretty clear what Scraptrap being the zombie resembles. A zombie dies, and comes back, and its very very hard to get rid of them. They always come back and don't leave, but another quality of zombies is their uncontrolled hunger for brains. Obviously William Afton isn't.. quite literally starving for brains, lol, but I feel it could be a good metaphor for how remnant-crazed he is. He even killed a bunch of OTHER kids (the kids from fnaf 2's minigame 'save them'), that he seemingly did absolutely nothing with, considering they never come up again. It's pretty obvious he was trying to extract remnant from these kids despite the fact he already caused the MCI and already had a considerable amount of remnant from those kids. He just got greedy lol. BUT zombies eat brains because it contains protein and fat, and being dead, they are driven to those things, and there's also the considerable amount of serotonin in brains which zombies might also be drawn to. Why do I bring any of this up? BECAUSE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WILLIAM IS DOING THE ENTIRE GAME
He's crazed by his need for remnant because of his fear of hell (the books say that he doesn't want to die because he knows he'll go to hell for his sins) which drives him to great lengths to harbor it all like a zombie would be driven to eat brains. Only difference is that William knew what he was doing and is even shown to brag about it in his AR lines where as a zombie doesn't know what it's doing because its. A zombie. But another thing is that zombies talk really slow, and William is shown to talk quietly and calmly and slow aswell. PJ's inspiration was a snake oil salesman (hence how he overexaggerates his "S"s), so it's absolutely not intentional at all but I still like it and I still wanted to bring it up
Lefty's connection to coffins are. ehh. Yeah exactly what you pointed out. They're a walking coffin for Charlie, carrying her to her rest like a coffin carries people underground to THEIR rest, there's really nothing else much I could point out here regarding coffins so I instead wanted to lean more into vampires. Vampires originate from european folklore and their creation probably signifies people's fears of death.
Tumblr media
Obviously when people create fictional monsters they base it off of common fears, including the animatronics from this very franchise. They're mascots made to bring joy to kids but when we (the player, nightguard, michael afton, whatev) show up we're seeing them in a much different context from their intended one and for some reason we find that creepy. What do fears of death have to say about Lefty? A lot, actually, if we take Charlie into consideration
I mean, cmon, she literally lead the kids to possessing the animatronics just so that they wouldn't really actually "die". Her motivations for doing such is, very under-explained but the Candy Cadet story about five keys being melted into one from Pizzeria Simulator says a little bit about it, if you squint. She wanted to save all five of the kids because she didn't want them to die but while trying to do so she accidentally ended up getting them all stuck
Pumpkin queen scrap baby!! Nothing to say abt that except for the whole theme of trying to be somebody you're not. Circus Baby was a jester, became a clown (ennard), and now she's a.. Scary pumpkin knife-hand lady. Makes me think back to the fourth closet, where Elizabeth gets upset at William for paying more attention to his work than her (when he hit her for trying to show him a kitty drawing she made), So she then puts on make up to look more like, if I remember correctly, Circus Baby I believe? There's also the whole fake Charlie thing. Elizabeth stop trying to be who you're not. You are a little british girl. Embrace it
And then there's Molten Freddy and the jack-o-lantern.. What the fuck!!!!!!!!! I was just going about my day and thinking about this post, I was literally cleaning the dishes, and then it hit me. What do you have to do to make a jack-o-lantern? Hollow a pumpkin out by scooping out its innards and then put a candle in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Michael done got hollowed out like a pumpkin so now it's molten's turn. But it reminds me more of the missing children. In the books there's the whole thing about their memories being skewered because their remnant was split up into different robots which split their memories up as the books explain remnant is more akin to memories rather than actual souls. Their memories were hollowed out. Their innards!! And the candle in the head too!! The fire kind of makes me think of remnant, and the unused image of Molten Freddy from Pizzeria Simulator directly states that it has the most amount of remnant. The books also depict remnant as melted liquid metal that is created by burning down metal!! With fire!! There's also molten liquid dripping down Molten Freddy and around his mouth if you look real closely!! It's remnant!! The pumpkin represents the robots, the hollowed out innards represent the missing children losing their memories, and the candle represents the remnant!! The carving represents. idk scary face bc aahh waaaohh spooky
Tumblr media
People sometimes ponder and debate as to why some of the Scraps look Like That and I propose a much simpler and sillier solution to this question.

Listen, have you ever thought about how the characters from the Moomin of the 70s and 60s might look in your style?
What do you think about these series? (in general terms, of course). Have you seen them?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I know you were probably expecting the MAIN main characters but I just wanted to draw my 3 faves)
For the series themselves I can't exactly give a concrete or well-constructed opinion of them due to the lack of English translation except for 5 like episodes of each series. I really want to give it a fair chance with understanding of what's going on and what they're saying, because as much as it is popular to joke about the violence and relative strangeness of it all I can tell there's some heart and things to think about with these series.
My experience when it comes to interacting with Moomin media has always been to look for characterization or dialog or even situations or concepts to think about and really chew on so that I could possibly create interesting content that could play off of those - aswell as gaining a new way to view the franchise and its characters as a whole.
Every story makes additions or changes that can make the characters feel more interesting if we pile them up and pick whatever grabs our attention. And it really puts into perspective how adaptations come to be and makes me think about what I would've done knowing what others have done before me, what changes needed to be made and what parts of the source material were cut for runtime, how character dialog and actions were affected by a writing team's decision to change a character, and how details to the lore get added to flesh out the world and character as the writers saw necessary.
If more episodes of the shin series ever come to be subtitled I would very happily watch it just to understand the heartfelt insanity that the series present us. But as of now, my opinion on them is that they're pretty wack compared to the initial perceptions of the world I had but I'm glad Inspector x Mr. Hemulen seems to have sailed pretty well.

How RE Village (8) SOLVED almost every problem that I had with RE Series
Okay - a few weeks ago I made a post that was “The ones that suffer the most” where I showed and explained my main problems with Chris and Jill and the RE series in general 
Tumblr media
RE 1 is my fav game of this series and probably one of my all time favs, I player every RE there is to be played except 4 (because I dislike Leon, sry) 
Recently, specially after 4, the franchise had a few problems, specially in writing/map design/lore 
Resident evil 5 for example (I love this game) but it has it flaws, Chris there is only driven by anger and action - Sheva is used as a tool for lore exposition and to be Chris’s new partner 
PLEASE: be aware that game at that generation didn’t have much lore - with some exceptions, like God of War 1 2 3 were a simply game with a simple lore, and the most recent GoW has evolved a little bit in the storytelling
Until we hit rock bottom in RE6 - I know a lot of people like this game, but this is only and action game, bad writing and generic stages. 
Chris there is so mistreated that makes me mad (if you want to read more about this go to my other post “the ones that suffer the most”)
Until RE7 appeared, Capcom had a new engine and they wanted to do a game that was more horror like - since RE is know for being a Survival horror game.
I liked 7 - some people complained about Ethan being without emotion and others complained about the mold, a few didn’t like the FEAR vibes from Eveline. 
I personally enjoyed the game, I thought RE series was going back on track, that game has it’s problems but it was really nice compared to what we had in 6.
After that game I had a conversation with my best friend and I said that I wanted a game that portrayed Umbrella’s fall since the only game that shows this is Umbrellas Chronicles (and that is most a resume of what happened)
And I said: “Bro, I wish that when they made that game, they could tie some mythological lore and human evolution before Umbrella - using Spencer, this would solve LOT OF STUFF and open new ways to handle this series”
and guess what - this happened in RE8 and kudos to the one writer that did that, i have my gratitude. 
RESIDENT EVIL 8 is probably one of the BEST RE games that we had IN YEARS
And I want to address all thing that I loved in this game and do some predictions to what will happen in the next games.
“WELL WELL IF IT ISN’T ETHAN WINTERS” (The Father of the year)
Tumblr media
My father was not a great guy... really, so I want to be the best dad ever, I really want be like Ethan - a guy who is ready to sacrifice and fight every monster in the way to save my family. 
Ethan was a character that in RE7 was used to make us fell like that it was us in the Baker’s house, so that is why he didn’t had that much personality (in my opinion) but they changed that in RE8, here he has nice dialogues AND a diary 
He has one of the best story line in the whole REverse, a guy that did EVERYTHING in his power to save his daughter - and you saw that playing the game, every sentence line that he delivered, he tried to save others too and even tho Chris said to him stay put ... but he couldn’t, he had to go to the altar, he had to help Chris, he had to go forward and keep going, specially after having the tools to face Heisenberg. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The plea from a father, that was his last wish, after he heard that Mia was alive he knew that someone had to stop that monster, he made a promise to his daughter “Daddy won’t let those weird fairy tale monsters get you” so he trusted Chris, to be the one that teaches his kid how to be brave and strong
I will not address Chris and Rose situation here because this is Ethans part and he deserves completely all the spotlight, his sacrifice was 100x times better than Steve (CV)/Piers(6)
My cheers to Ethan Winters - You have my respect !
Revelations -> RE8 
So leaks from earlier times said that RE8 sucked and Revelations 3 was amazing
Revelations FYI is know for using old tales in RE stories 
Revelations 1 - Dante’s Inferno 
Revelations 2 - Frans Kafka 
Revelations 3 - Dracula 
But since RE8 sucked, Capcom said to the REV3 team that they could make REV3 become RE8 and they accepted 
Revelations series is one of the best in the games, they handle Jill in a way that I love, Claire and even Barry - so they deserve all the spotlight for making this awesome game - you CLEARLY can see that they love this series and that they treat all the characters with the love that they deserve. 
Keeping that in mind, they are the same team that made Rev 2 and in REV 2 we have this file here 
Tumblr media
So they had a plan for Jill and we can see that in RE8 - I will address that later but keep that in mind - this team cares for the old characters, they were the ones that brought Barry back to the games :V 
Chris Redfield 
This is a hard one, because he is my fav character and I usually have the most critics regard him, since I’ve expect a lot from Capcom 
In the latest games they made him kind dumb, only muscles type of guy and an alcoholic that let all the people in his surroundings die (RE5,RE6,Vendetta) 
RE6 treats him the WORST
But in RE8 he had an amazing part in the storyline, it was obvious that he wasn’t evil and they FIXED HIS EYE COLOR - FINALLY 
I still don’t like the model face that much but it’s way better than 7 - so I believe Capcom, I still feel that he need more jawline 
But let’s go to the most important thing - here he really feels like a squad leader and a veteran, he has his team but he is the one in the front line, he covers and ask for help when he needs, everything about his line delivery makes you feel like “Woah, this guy is a badass, he is not some stupid guy only driven by emotions”
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FINALLY GETTING THIS RIGHT 
If you remember my post about the ones that suffer the most / Jill is also in that list and I will talk about her a little bit later but if my guess is right RE8 saved her character aswell
Another thing that I enjoyed here is the fact that he is kind of a mercenary / Neo Umbrella kind of guy, even tho he is one of the founders of the BSAA
So I will give you all my score to this game: 
9/10
I won’t give 10/10 because of some technical issues, the cursor lock didn’t work and mouse sensitivity was i dunno, not the best. 
RE8 and the future (PREDICTIONS)  - Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, BSAA, Neo Umbrella, Ada Wong and Rosemary
First let’s look Rose
The first time I saw Rose all grown up - I thought to myself : She has the same problem as Eveline (age a lot faster than normal) 
But she also absorbed Miranda’s power since the metalicite (something like this) thought that she was a better host. - so maybe she will live longer or something because I doubt that they will do a 14 years time skip. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is not the same as Terra Save logo (Claire’s job) but it kind reminds me of it - her shoes appeared at least 3 times in this cut scene so maybe they are trying to show some hints with this 
Tumblr media
She really reminds me of Jodie (Beyond two souls, a game where a girl has a lot of power and the gov uses her in missions and stuff, but she also is learning how to be her own person) 
Another thing here is that they don’t have a logo in this car, it really reminds me the car that Chris as using in RE8 
Tumblr media
This supports the theory that Chris’s organization is dealing with her instead of the BSAA, the she is a hot headed girl and that she had a lot of powers. 
Tumblr media
So here you can say that she is just a kid because she is a teenager, but what if she actually grows older really fast (like Eveline) maybe this is just 1 year later / 2 yrs later. (after RE8)
Tumblr media
So this is the tricky part, this is Chris’s guard/soldier, someone that Chris trust to stand by her side, in my mind I do believe that Chris is kind of a father figure to her, so when this guys says this he is thinking about hot head Chris but she replies “Yeah” thinking about Ethan - (she has the mold memories, so she can actually remember Ethan’s memories) 
Now let’s look at this 
Tumblr media
BSAA 
So in REV1 is hinted that BSAA is not the best organization in the world, but since our heroes work there we think that they are the good guys right ? 
In REV 2 (it’s important to remember that the team that created RE8 is the same from the REVELATIONS and they had this file here in REV2)
Tumblr media
This email is from Jill and what does Jill have ? T-Virus 
Wesker is a different case since he was a project and she had the vaccine but this would make a lot of sense if they had this tests with Jill to get the T-Virus
If that is the case, they explained Jill’s absence in the main games, could even explain why Chris left BSAA and opened a new window to a lot of possibilities 
My Predictions: 
- Chris had trouble dealing with BSAA and Jill’s case, he wanted to get her out of there, maybe he removed her from there but that resulted in him being expelled from the force
-Jill may or may not know what they are doing with her blood, but she will have a huge part in the BOW used by BSAA 
-Chris is married to Jill (sorry- I had to place this here, in a perfect world he has two kids with her and they all love aunt Rose) 
-Chris will hopefully be a father figure to Rose and they will be in a game together since in the end they came to get her
-Rebecca is still involved in BSAA activities (leak from new REV3) if you consider Vendetta canon, she maybe the one that used Jill’s sample of blood to create the virus soldiers
-Barry maybe retired 
-I don’t think Leon will be in this game, but he will get his RE4 Rmk 
- I do believe RE9 will be release after Code veronica rmk and MAYBE they will do a game about Umbrella’s Fall (Chris and Jill in Europe against Red Queen and BOWs) 
But that is it, you can see a lot of elements from old RE games in RE8, they tried to do something really smart and the game felt amazing to play, that was something else and it’s been a while since a player a RE game that made me feel that way <3

Let’s breakdown this possible clickbait spoiler video on YouTube. It has been supposedly leaked that some script info has been leaked that Gru & Lucy have 3 more children.
Obv the first new kid is Gru Jr and we will protect him at all costs.
Secondly, there’s a possibility Gru and Lucy could adopt Poppy. Poppy is a teenager that is a big fan of Gru and wants to be a supervillain like he once was. She adopts the same things as Gru (I.e her initial on her items). They meet Poppy when they move to the safe house in Mayflower and she is their neighbour. Most likely without her parents as what parents would let there kid dance in the kitchen???. Either poppys parents are missing or she’s an orphan like the girls so they could feel sorry for her and adopt her.
Personally. I don’t want them to adopt her but it bothers me slightly that she has blue eyes and the same nose as Gru so has Gru had a fling in his past? Unlikely but funny af. We want the girls to be the centre of attention like they didn’t get in DM3 and that’s that. More of the girlies please.
Personally aswell I think poppy and I can’t think of the word rn but tho she is Grus fan I don’t think she’s is on his side, really???? She could be an insider trying to get the goss sort of thing but is really working for Maxime Le Mal??? That’s my theory personally.
2. According to a site that could be bullshit but leaked information, Gru Jr could already become an older brother but it might not be Grus. A theory or spoiler has suggested that Dru returns to Gru with a baby (Dru Jr obv) he asks Gru to raise the child because of his life as a super villian. Maybe Lucy is pregnant by the end of it again that I long for?🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ the wishful thinking is real.
I personally find this is highly unlikely as Illumination would almost be promoting having kids, here, there and everywhere but it’s entertaining to think I guess.
If a script has been leaked and there is another 2 kids joining the family (ex Gru Jr). It’s highly likely they adopt poppy and they have another one.
By the way these are the words of the video and not me unless I have stated personally otherwise. I have not come across a script leak.
Personally, Im hoping for a daughter from Gru and Lucy one day (one more kid because Grus sperm count is high 🙃😒) because she will look like Gru with dark hair and green eyes and I think this will complete the franchise tho I don’t want it to end.
Just who knows what is going to happen in this movie but it’s exciting to think of all these theories and a bit of clickbait now and again can be exciting, especially when they mention a script leak I a sucker for it. Ngl!! So here we are.
Post your theories!!!!

YOOO thanks for the tag, dude!
Okay let's see...
• Starting off strong with MLP. My mom used to love the ponies back in the 90s so ofc i got introduced to FIM in the 2010's (Friendship is Magic/Generation 4)
• Monster High, because again, my mom introduced me to it. Was obsessed with the movies and characters, even had a heck ton of dolls! Draculaura was (and still is) my favorite MH character.
• Gotta get the indie game fandoms outta the way so, FNAF. Ah yes, a classic. The game i found through a literal Just Dance back in 2017 and what paved the way for discovering-
• BATIM. (Smooth transition, i know) Lil' Bendy darlin' and all his absolutely terrifying inky friends was what made me so interested in 1920-30's rubberhose animation. Alice will forever be my favorite...alongside Sammy Lawrenc-
• Cuphead! The OTHER indie game that came out the exact day BATIM chapter 2 did, that got me really invested in animation and 30s culture. Loved Casino Cups and absolutely FREAKED OUT when i heard the game was getting a show on Netflix. (One time i even spent like a week animating eyelashes and a skirt onto mugman in several clips of the show, lost it tho.)
• Which not-so-smoothly transitions over to BBIEAL! Or uh, Baldi's Basics. This silly little shitpost of a game is my comfort and therapy, i'd die for these characters tbh. Love everything about it and found Kindly Keyin & VOAdam through it! (The comic dubs was a phase in itself honestly.)
• UNDERTALE. God DAMN i love this game, and it's no wonder why- i mean, come on, it's Undertale. Lovable characters, a heartwrenching story, the biggest fandom Sans-astrophe ever, etc. I took this quiz once (or twice) where i found out that my soul trait would be Patience, the cyan soul, and yeah. Makes sense.
• UNDERTALE: YELLOW. okay, okay, i'll keep this short. This is a fangame, i repeat, FANGAME for Undertale that came out a few days ago and i am in love. Check it out PLEASE if you love Undertale, you'll love UTY aswell.
• Aaand moving swiftly away from that, let's talk SONIC THE MOTHERF- HEDGEHOG. I finally caved and got into this 30 yr old franchise back when the 2nd movie had just come out in uhhh 2022? 21? Either way, best decision i've ever made. Was actually really into Sonic.EXE before this, which leads me to-
• My Creepypasta phase! Yes, i still draw the operator symbol on my wrist sometimes DON'T JUDGE ME. But this is actually one of the first fandoms i joined! having found Smile HD and Rainbow Factory at a wayyyy too young age, i got into so many more iconic pastas over time.
So those were the big ones, now's time for a speed-round!
• Tattletail, loved it. Best game ever, there's literally a full analysis video about it on YouTube as to why.
• Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss, found HH back when the pilot got uploaded and just sorta kept up with HB.
• DSMP. Yup. It was popular and i found some really cool youtubers through it. (*cough* TommyInnit *cough*) still have my L'manburg flag hanging on my wall.
• Yandere Simulator. it was genuinely fun and interesting, sucks the creator's such a creep. But on the bright side, i found Kubz Scouts from it! so i'm glad i had this phase.
• Danganronpa. Found it through Kubz Scouts, got a little too into it lol (it was fun though)
• Found the magical world of TikTok aesthetics and got into Weirdcore, oh how i love surreal chaos.
• Just recently got introduced to the mechanics and world of felt puppets, think Sesame Street or The Muppets.
• Also animatronics! Think 70s Chuck-E-Cheese, The Rock-a-Fire Explosion, and so on.
• This ain't a phase but SPACE. God how i love the endless, deadly and terrifying void filled with unexplainable wonders that we're floating around in. Astronomy in general tbh.
• Game Theory, science and researching. Need i say more?
• Roblox. It was a huge part of my childhood (AKA 2017 uptil' now) and i will forever love the website and many memes it has spawned.
Alrighty, that was all i could think of for now! Let's see... who shall i tag... (yeah, i really don't have a lot of friends, do i?- welp, let's see who responds lol)
@louniey @unassumingtherizinosaur @grimnlucky
New tagging game I wanna start
My love phases in my life because of my favorite childhood tv shows/other reasons:
• Dino loving phase because of Dino Dan (I still love dinosaurs. T-Rex’s and raptors are my favorites)
• Apple loving phase because of Applejack from MLP
• Animal loving phase because of Wild Kratts (I still love both of them)
• A spy loving phase because of Kim Possible
• Science loving phase (I don’t know the reason. Maybe because of Twilight Sparkle)
• Magic loving phase (And I still do)
• Ninja loving phase because of TMNT 2012/LEGO Ninjago
• Barbie loving phase (just anything Barbie)
• Vampire loving phase because of Mavis
@dead-dog-dont-eat @drama-glob @corffee @enbydemirainbowbigfoot @thebluebafoon @cjandxenaxenomorph2 @fictionalfish @askgemtale @it-gal888 @sparklijam @gloomycherub-mysterious @tranquil-slaughterhouse

Cormi and Trayco!
In the restaurant they are ment to be a calmer side show, Like a comedy or magic show.
The animatromics themselves are mainly matte black plastic. They aren't really any identifiable species just sort of like modified maniqnes.
I don't know if I'll re-design them, as when I made them it was a bit rushed and a long while ago. But if I ever to it probably won't be super drastic.
Tumblr media
Also here's a goofy animation I did back when I first made them. Not my proudest, but I put a bit of effort into it so might aswell.
Canonically these two where made by a diffrent engineer than the previous ones. That's why they look so much more high tech than the cheetarga in this era.
The engineer that made these two would soon become the main engineer and would pave the way for the Cheetarga franchise. eventually gaining traction and eventually passing ffbp with higher technology.
----
Some extra facts!
They are both the same height around 5'7. They both can only open one of their eyes,(as you can see in the picture) In fact the only real form of facial expression they can do is with their one eyes.
---
That's all for now! ^^
And remember..
Steal my art, and I steal your k n e e c a p s.

HALLOWEEN 3: SEASON OF THE WITCH- 1982 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Tumblr media
When Halloween 3 came out, it was received poorly by critics aswell as diehard Halloween fans who couldnt believe Michael Myers wasnt in it. The first time i saw this i was around 10 years old, having bought the dvd at a car boot sale, and turned it off after a while when i realised it was nothing to do with the other Halloween movies. I assumed it was a ripoff of some kind and not part of the same franchise. The second viewing didnt fair much better. Now in my mid 20s, i was sat in the back of the Grosvenor Cinema on the final film of an All Night Horror Madness. It was around 7am when Halloween 3 started, i was exhausted and kept being abruptly woken by the silver shamrock jingle. The third time was a charm. No longer a child and no longer tired, i watched the movie knowing there was no Michael Myers and this was its own story, and loved it. It tells the story of Dr Daniel Challis, played by horror legend Tom Atkins. He is an alcoholic doctor who gets all the ladies. After witnessing a patient killed in a bizarre murder suicide, he teams up with the patients daughter Linda to find out what happened. There investigation takes them to the creepy town of Santa Mira, which is ran by Conal Cochran, owner of Silver Shamrock mask company. Despite having very basic designs of things like a witch or a pumpkin, these masks are all the rage and we see kids all over America wearing them. Dr challis and Linda look around the town for clues and find evidence at Silver Shamrock that they were involver in her dads killing. The factory is patrolled by creepy suit wearing cyborgs. After capturing Dr Challis and Linda, Conal Cochran explains his masterplan. Demonstrating on a family being held in the factory, when the Silver Shamrock ad plays on tv it send a transmission to the mask which kills the child and releases deadly bugs and snakes. The scene where the family are killed is really well done and quite shocking. With not long to go til the deadly ads play on air, Dr Challis has to try and escape and stop them from being played. We find out before he went to Santa Mira that his own kids own Silver Shamrock masks. In recent years Halloween 3 has developed a definite fanbase and is now seen as a cult movie. Its quite beloved in some circles and i can see why, the atmosphere of the movie is great, has an excellent score done by John Carpenter. Some good links to the previous halloween movies. The trailer for the original Halloween plays on tv at one point. Jamie Lee Curtis does a voice cameo and Dick Warlock returns to play one of the cyborgs. I think if this movie had been released as just Season of the Witch and not a halloween movie it would have faired a lot better. But it all worked out in the end. Very much enjoyed seeing the classic Silver Shamrock masks used in the new David Gordon Green Halloween movies. This is probably in my top 5 Halloween movies. Excellent film directed by Tommy Lee Wallace.
One of my favourite movies.
