ReBoot ReWind Anonymous 10/28/2024 (Mon) 17:58:10 No. 41826 [Reply]
Does anyone here remember ReBoot? One of my favorite shows of all time. Lately Shout Factory's Youtube channels have had livestreams of it going 24/7, and I've just been leaving it on in the background whenever I have nothing else to watch. It holds up tremendously. The early episodes do have animation that shows its age a bit, but by the end of Season 1, it's already noticeably better, and I'll go out on a limb and argue that by Season 3, it holds up favorably against modern CGI cartoons. Recently some fans got together and made a very in-depth and professional 8 part documentary series about the making of the show. It is basically all made of interviews with the creators. They got basically all the creators and animators and directors who are still alive (including one of the top guys who tragically passed away before the documentary was released), and get tons of good information out of them. Of interest to /co/ is that one of these people is Dan DiDio, former EiC of DC Comics. He sometimes gets some hate from comics fans, as all EiCs do, but I liked most of his era, and I love his work on ReBoot and other Mainframe series. While making the documentary, the crew also found the original tapes of the series. It apparently took them months to then source the obscure and outdated machines required to run this particular kind of tape, and then they had to repair the machines, and I guess there is more work required to transfer all the material, but they uploaded the first episode in high quality to the Mainframe Youtube channel, and it does look markedly better than the already good DVDs. They even did a theatrical showing of the series and included one of the two IMAX rides from the '90s. There are some recordings of the first ride, but only partial recordings of the second, and of course they aren't in good quality. Some clips in the documentary show that they have access to the uncompressed versions of the cutscenes from the PS1 game. Hopefully they just release both the IMAX rides (and pre-ride material, and the uncompressed PS1 cutscenes, onto Youtube. The documentary also discussses how in Season 1, they were so behind on the animation that they couldn't deliver episodes on time, and instead made a series of commercials that tied together into a little story (called "The Trias Effect") to keep kids watching for a month. Most of these are on Youtube from the original airings, recorded onto home VHS, so not great quality. One seems to be lost, though. But these people seem to have found the tapes, so hopefully that gets released, too. I mean this is a series that is officially uploaded onto Youtube on several official channels, along with official livestreams. Hopefully nobody involved would be opposed to just also uploading higher quality versions of the episodes, along with some otherwise lost-media spinoff bits. Anyway, this documentary is excellent, and if you haven't watched the original series, you should. It starts off as episodic comedy, but the way it transitions into a much more adult continuing storyline is very cool. The animation was groundbreaking, pre-dating Toy Story, and once they got the ball rolling, it really holds up even today. Also, they hilariously go on and on about how they would all like to bring the series back, but they never once directly refer to "The Guardian Code." Such an abomination that they pretend it doesn't exist. Except when most of them do mention that they'd like to come back, they always say "but only if (creators) Gavin (Blair) and Ian (Pearson) were involved." Seems like they were swiping at The Guardian Code. Unfortunately, one episode is dedicated to Ian Pearson, who apparently died after all the interviews they got with him, but Gavin Blair seems to still have all the ideas. Part of me still has hope that he'll get to put those final episodes out there some day. At the very least, I wish he would just be a bit more specific about what the last episodes were supposed to be. He does talk about it a little bit, though, including clearing up the cliffhanger... They don't go into extreme detail, but since it's the main thing fans probably want to know, I'll give a very condensed version of their condensed version. Season 4 was supposed to be three four episode arcs. It then ends on a cliffhanger at the end of the second arc. Creator Gavin Blair mentions, however, that actually that cliffhanger wasn't intended to lead into the third arc. Actually they intended to release extended-edition DVDs, so all the episodes were supposed to be longer. When Cartoon Network reneged on their contract and fucked them over, the third arc and the extended edition DVDs were both cancelled. This then resulted in their merchandising deals getting cancelled, and toy company Irwin going out of business. Mainframe then scrambled just to try to finish what episodes they could get what they had out the door before they completely ran out of money. So the first two arcs of Season 4 are actually very condensed compared to what was originally intended, as they tried to keep certain things from the extended DVDs by cutting and trimming other bits. One bit that got trimmed was the last act of the last episode of the second arc. They figured it would be better to keep more of the rest of the episode/arc, and then hope that maybe the cliffhanger ending would be cool enough to work as an ending, and hopefully let them come back. But actually "The Hunt" that Megabyte refers to in the last line of the series was actually just going to be the final act of the episode. That's only about seven minutes. Then "there would be another double-cross" (referring to the previous time he was defeated) and the episode and arc would end. They don't mention what the third arc of the season would have been, but it wouldn't have been Megabyte hunting down all the protagonists, which is what fans assumed for the last 23 years. It would have been a new story after Megabyte was defeated. They do imply it was still gonna be part of a larger season arc, but they don't say what it would be, just that it wasn't gonna be Megabyte. PS: AndrAIa is best waifu. A Mouse is fine, too. Dot's a fucking cunt, though.

>>41843 >Transformers Wild Animals Do you mean Beast Wars? That isn't forgotten. It's the best Transformers series by far, and largely because it was made by the same people who made ReBoot. It was practically the sequel to ReBoot. I still remember when Beast Wars was coming out, and YTV marketed it as "from the makers of ReBoot" rather than "the sequel to Transformers." And that's what got me to watch. And it's awesome and holds up to this day. Season 1 has its share of one-off episodes that can sometimes be forgettable, but the characters are the best Transformers characters ever, Dinobot is the best individual Transformer character ever, and the story that develops throughout Seasons 2 and 3 is so cool. The sequel series, Beast Machines, gets a bad rep sometimes, but I think it holds up very well. Maybe not quite as well as Beast Wars Seasons 2 and 3, but I actually like the more spiritual angle that Optimus takes on, as it allows both him and Cheetor to develop in very interesting ways. And yes, Beast Wars was called "Beasties" in Canada, which is where it was actually made. For some reason the Canadian censors demanded they censor that title, even though on ReBoot, it was the American network, ABC, which was heavily censoring the entire show, while YTV gave them carte blanche to do whatever they wanted, to the degree that you can identify the specific episode that ABC cancelled the show, since it immediately becomes suddenly dark and edgy. They go from characters not being allowed to break glass, or have boobs (the modellers were forced to give them all strange "monoboobs"), to an X-Files episode (actually guest starring Gillian Anderson) where a monster is running around killing recurring characters. And anyone who knows how ReBoot Season 2 ends knows it gets extremely dark. Insektors is an actually obscure series, even moreso than ReBoot. ReBoot's creators and fans always claim to be the first fully CGI TV series, but according to some sources, Insektors premiered first, at least in France. This results in ReBoot sometimes being referred to as "the first fully CGI half-hour TV series," since Insektors episodes were only 11 minutes. Honestly I do think the animation in that show is still pretty cool, I have a massive soft spot for early CGI, but it's not as good as ReBoot, in animation, and especially not in story. I also loved the Incredible Crash Dummies TV show as a kid, and that technically came out before ReBoot. I had one episode on tape, and was always looking for others. It was only many years later that I learned that it was a standalone "TV special," clearly actually a failed pilot that never got picked up. So I guess that is how ReBoot can still market itself as the first CGI "series," since Crash Dummies was just one episode. It was a cool one, though. Also, when ReBoot came out, YTV would air random CGI shorts during commercials and between shows, packaging them as "Short Circuitz." I loved these so much, but for a long time there was no documentation of the series. Eventually I learned they were all just repackaged older CGI shorts from the '80s, including some very famous ones, like Andre and Wally B.. But now you can find a lot of them on Youtube, though usually mixed with a lot of other similar '80s CGI stuff, sometimes from the same collections that Short Circuitz got a lot of its material from. I swear there are still some I vaguely remember from the mid '90s that I can't find online though. Also, people love Animusic, but nobody talks about the earlier (and therefore more groundbreaking and impressive) similar animation from the same guy, "More Bells and Whistles." That short is awesome. It makes me wonder if there is a regular "Bells and Whistles," but I can't find that one. I love early CGI, but ReBoot is the coolest because it also had awesome story and characters. Beast Wars comes close. Shadow Raiders is cool too. And so was Weird-Os, and Scary Godmother, and that weird MTV Spider-Man series. Mainframe was awesome because they had cool animation and good writers.

For this month, I found a French series of comic translated in English involving a bunch of middle school kids and their teacher dealing with a witch that cursed them, plus some monsters. There's also an animated series. There's no official English translations available, but there is one fan translation (and some notes) that I've found that I'll post in full here. Here's the first story: The Book of the Moon, which was released in 2016.

>>41969 >We're gonna get Alastor's confirmed backstory & the reveal that he's Rosie's slave. Likely that the leaks here >>38016 continue to be true. It would explain why Rosie has so much more power than Alastor & why he's actually working with Charlie as well as getting on her good side. There's not a single competent villain in this show is there? There are ways to make villain's look pathetic in the end while still making them intimidating but so far both Adam and Alastor wounded up being complete nothings that caused no lasting damage with everything being fine in the end. What's the point of having any enemies and why not just turn this show into a slice of life now?
>>41997 The show should have been about the hotel & redeeming shows. Instead of this rushed overarching story right away. Now Vivzie's just shooting herself in the foot after going crazy over the election. Expect some real Trump analogs thrown in last minute. What is funny though is so many fans are rooting for Lute to kill all the sinners now.

Horror Anthologies Story Time Anonymous 10/31/2022 (Mon) 06:19:26 No. 30204 [Reply] [Last]
It's this time of the year. I have been reading old horror anthologies lately and it is crazy how often stories are actually good in ones from EC and from Warren. Even back then anthologies were mostly hit and miss, yet somehow these two publishers built up a stable of good artists and writers who managed to produce good books consistently. Jennifer is one of my favorites so far. It was originally published in Creepy #63. Dark Horse reprint collections have it in volume 12. It was adapted in Masters of Horror series' fourth episode directed by Dario Argento.

It may well have been some guy on /co/. Either way, the Hannukah and Passover specials came out between Seasons 3 and 4. Season 4 is when the show started going downhill.

It's another DreamWorks animated feature that mostly earns its "heartwarming" reception. I enjoyed seeing how a robot gradually gets along with the animals. She's also a motherly figure who raises a lone goose, while a fox ends up having a heart over his cynical nature thanks to her. The animation style and voices weren't wasted for once. My only gripe is through the last act where the robot deals with some other robot that wants to destroy its memory for no good reason besides being corrupt and earlier, she literally says that she is a wild robot but I'm glad that I watched it in a theater, even with a bunch of families and their kids in the way. Maybe I'll check out the original book, too.

The toy angle is fine, they just needed a better justification for it in the specific episode.

>>41664 Mostly I didn't like how the writers obviously didn't plan for it, so it goes pretty much nowhere, and that it messed with her dynamic with the rest of the Mane 6. This is supported by fact that they just plopped a stylistically clashing crystal castle in Ponyville and Twilight says "I guess I'm Princess of Friendship now", and that by season 6 they had a surplus of socially inept unicorns to learn basic friendshit again, because Twilight is all tapped out on that front. I always knew Twi was going to become an alicorn, being the apprentice to the god queen and all, but I had ballparked it as a final season/series finale/epilogue sort of thing, because where else can you go with her after that? >>41672 I agree that the episode itself didn't do enough to justify it. Celestia sings a song about her basically graduating her apprenticeship, and it's only because she figured out a cryptic riddle about a spell with no clear purpose. The premise of swapping Cutie Marks was poorly executed too, it didn't make a lot of sense given what the show already established about Cutie Marks.
