Wake me up from this Carnival Night(mare) Zone Some days ago, I made a long awaited return to my in-progress Tails playthrough of Sonic 3 (without the "& Knuckles" lock-on tech). I had already collected all 7 emeralds and the last zone I left myself in was Carnival Night Zone. So I started playing. I was jumping around, running down those candy cane cylinder things, I accidentally performed that one glitch where your gravity becomes altered because you touched a certain object like those rotating wheels or those odd floating platforms that you jump on to have them ascend--all in all, I was havin' a (not 3D) blast, until I made it to Act 2. There was this part with a 10+ Rings monitor, or something, somewhere high in the zone. Above the item was a ceiling that curved, so I jumped at that curve to start running on the ceiling, only to clip into the adjacent wall not too far away.

I found that I was unable to remove myself from that space, no matter how many times I jumped, how much I charged a Spindash--I even attempted that one glitch you can do in Ice Cap and/or Sandopolis when you duck to lower the screen and then quickly jump to perform either a level wrap or a screen wrap, I forgot, but I was just STUCK. I tried for a few minutes before I gave up and waited for a Time Over (the most embarrassing way to die in a Classic Sonic game imo). I don't get Time Over's because I'm bad at the games, I just love to explore these worlds, and I like to be thorough; I wanna find all the secrets and those lovely Giant Rings that net me 50 extra rings (cuz I already have the emeralds at this point so I can no longer warp to the BLUE SPHERE DOILUS ROUND) Nonetheless, I left and returned with a slice of pizza, and finally, the clock eventually hit 9:59 and Tails was freed at the cost of one of his lives...and my pride. Happy to have been released from one of Robotnik's Nefarious Traps (I presumed), I carried out the Act as normal, up to the part where Knuckles comes in and causes a power outage. What a four-headed dick. That's my least favorite part of the whole zone; it's so slow, mostly because the level design is more boxed in and linear and there's WATER in this carnival. For the love of Chaos, who the fUCK put all this water here?!

And you know that one part, with all the bumpers on the walls and ceiling that take you farther into the lower parts of the Act? I was like "hmm what if theres something back there" so I flew through that tight section avoiding the bumpers to be sent back. It turns out there was nothing there for me, so I thought I'd just head back... But unfortunately, Tails' airborne physics, while flying, cause him to descend slower, probably because his gravity is decreased. Due to his decreased gravity, the force exerted by the bumpers is probably doubled, and without any solid ground to stand on, Tails cannot exit flight mode and revert to his normal gravity. The result was me becoming softlocked AGAIN in the same GOT damn Act. Once more, I waited for the time to run out. The following footage is my agony captured on a smartphone camera this time, to share with my friends.

"I'm stuck in the GOT damn building; I can't get out of this... I cAn'T-" Damn it, Tails, is this why some people don't like you? Geez, I have NEVER been in Carnival Night Zone for this long of a time; it was so, very excruciating. I'm still worried this experience will forever change the way I see Tails and this Zone... :( Addendum, Jun. 5, 2024. I forgot to put this addendum in soon after I initially posted the entire text. I was looking at my screen like "what was I supposed to add? oh well" but I remembered today: this post was the first time I put in some .gifs to just fill the spaces between blocks. This is because I had learned that Tumblr has a block limit system of 4,000-something characters. The way I format my posts, I use SHIFT-ENTER to make new lines and not ENTER, and using the former over the ladder continues a block rather than splitting it. Now I also know why I couldn't put all of my Sonic Frontiers thoughts into that one post from a while ago, but hey, now I know I can fix it because I saved the rest elsewhere! but ough, I had always ("always" referring to when I found my footing in making posts which wasn't all that long ago) put a .gif or three in my posts because 1) they're fun to use, and 2) they kept the design of my posts more than stale (not boring). Now I may feel obligated to have them just so I don't reach that limit :C

So Today I'm Gonna be ranking the Chucky Franchise from my least favorite to favorite (even the show)

Alright starting off with my least favorite

11:Cult Of Chucky (2017)

First of all It just makes me angry that they had a cool idea with multiple Chucky's and made cult around that idea it's like wrapping a bar of gold in a pile of shit also the setting is boring I'm sorry it's cool for about five minutes then a mental hospital becomes a pretty boring setting the kills are pretty good I'll give it that on rewatch they are some of the best but the Chucky's designs are fucking awful why do they look like mark Zuckerberg mixed with a cabbage patch doll I can't get over that Andy being there is cool but he's not there very long Oh my god the ending pissed me off for so long until I watched the show and that hate stuck with me because it was just Chucky getting away and waiting for what happens next that's really more of my fault then the Movie's fault but that feeling sticks with me every time I rewatch it also Tiffany is actually really good here and gets like what five minutes of screen time?! What the fuck that's stupid unlike curse I don't even think this one deserved to be plaid in theaters this shit is fit for it's DVD only release

10: Chucky season 3 (2023-2024)

I don't have much to say about this it feels unfair to say since it's not even finished but like I really don't like it so far

9:Curse of Chucky (2013)

I see the reasons why people like this movie but two giant things keep me from liking it at all is that it's so slow paced and boring for most of the movie which really sucks because I have a very small attention span and I want to like this movie so bad but I can't

8:Child's Play (2019)

Unpopular opinion even though I have it this low I actually enjoy this like yeah it's a fun watch when you just watch it as movie and don't think that it's a Chucky movie but it doesn't help that the movie as a movie and especially as a Chucky movie suck ass

7:Bride Of Chucky (1998)

Look I know I'm placing it very low but that doesn't mean I dislike this movie this and far on are the ones I actually like but of the Chucky media I like this is definitely the weakest it just doesn't hit as hard as the others but it does give us a great Chucky design and Tiffany which I will have iffy opinions on later but yeah this definitely a solid movie

6:Seed Of Chucky (2004)

This movie is really fun and Chucky had me giggling in laughter it sucks as a horror movie but that's not what they were going for and Glen is fun I don't really have problems with this movie I just like it less then the others

5: Chucky Season 1 (2021)

Ok it was a hard choice and honestly this season probably is better when you look at it as a writing standpoint but the next one will tell you

4:Chucky Season 2 (2022)

This one is just more fun and it adds my favorite of the new characters in the show Nadine Jesus did I love Nadine

3:Child's Play 2 (1990)

Even though I think this movie is definitely overrated I still really enjoy it yeah it's pretty good I mean people seem to think it's the best which is ludicrous but opinions are free I guess

2:Child's Play 3 (1991)

Ok I'll get hate for this but damnit this movie is enjoyable as shit. I love most of the characters. Teen Andy is fun. The kills are mostly good. Chucky's death is fucking excellent. I like the setting.

1:Child's Play (1988)👑

Oh my god this og still hits so hard and this is the second scariest Chucky has ever been the kills in this movie tho few are really good the plot is really good Chucky is the perfect balance of sinister and wickedly humorus Just wow if you've never watched it go do it now

Have a good day

Edit:I don't feel like editing the list but I think mix around Chucky season 2 more than child's play 2 now
