    That Jan Willem Nijman clip from his juice talk where he mentions explosions was really unexpected in this video. 😅Your accent sounds Dutch so I guess that explains it. Do you have a background in game dev? Overall great recap of Skullmonkeys. We had The Neverhood at home when I was a kid, used to play adventure games together with my dad and brothers. But never heard anything about this game. The fellas at Neverhood Inc are legends to me, so much creative expression.

      @@1000_Gibibit Haha, good call. I recall we had just recently watched that video during, you guessed it, game development class and naturally thought it fit here perfectly. I'm actually Danish but I'd say that's close enough to what Dutch also sounds like, even if I try my damnedest to mask any related accent. It's been a while since I've rewatched this video so I forget what I already clarified, but I of course grew up with Skullmonkeys by happenstance and only discovered The Neverhood way later in life. I feel that gave me a very interesting appreciation for the game I probably wouldn't have had if I, like you, had played The Neverhood with my family growing up. If I had, then all the magic of the claymated graphics would probably have been greatly diminished, so I'm very happy I've had the honor of sharing that appreciation for a game that people just aren't really familiar with and deserved better. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video!

    That's honestly why I was so sad about the new show that came out. I was really hoping that they were going to release a frame for frame animated version of the books and give people the digestible version of the books so that we could all enjoy the full story. When I sat down to watch it I was so hype until it 180d into these new stories and it cut me pretty deep. I heard people love the new show and I haven't seen it yet but I'm working my way back. I love the movie cast and I'm pretty sure they won't ever come together to do the actual story in cartoon form which sucks, but at least I got the books.

    I’ve recently read the comic books, it’s not the best in terms of action, but the story and backstory of characters is interesting for sure. I really recommend reading them, you can literally read all of the comics under like 4+ hours maybe if you don’t stop reading and you can read fast

    • @davistoa
      @davistoa 4 месяца назад

      Many years ago I had a friend try and read em and she'd apparently been told it had great fights in it, so then when she read it she was like "wow the action sucks, how disappointing, these books suck" and I got so frustrated trying to explain to her that the action doesn't matter, you're reading it for the characters and their interactions. That's also why I like to interpret the fights in more metaphorical senses, it adds some nicely needed reason for them to exist. And in regards to how short it is, every time I recommend it I hear the same excuse: "bluhh, books, I don't have the time to read. What is it, 6 volumes? That's gonna take several days to get through" and they don't believe me when I say it only takes like a few hours to read through it all, and even then there is barely any text. It's sad how afraid people have become of doing a little reading, even when it's mostly visual.

    From rereading it I realized…(be it, it was in front of our faces) why they even went out in the first place. 1. Scott doesn’t like Ramona, he’s obsessed with her, he’s infatuated by her. And it’s not something Scott can control. Because of the subspace he constantly sees her in his dreams. It’s because of this subspace that they go out. Romona feels sorry that she caused this boy to be obsessed because he sees her in his dreams through the subspace and decides to just see where it goes without trying to complicate things. And he’s just obsessed. It isn’t until later on down the volumes. I feel like it’s after volume 3 with envy that he understands that’s it’s more than obsession now and it’s something more. And when Lisa pops back up he’s face with comfort or confrontation in fighting to be with Romona.

      @@sunnecas I have seen those and I've intentionally chosen to ignore them as I feel they missed my point but I would feel rude to correct them as they are in a sense right, of course. However, as we're already engaged in talk I might as well clarify just to finally get it out there: I'm already well aware the irrational reason Scott falls for Ramona is cuz he appears in his head, but really that's all it is, irrational. It's a rather exaggerated play on 'love at first sight' and I think if someone I just saw in a dream appeared in real life I would definitely be head over heels for them as well, but if you believe that's a reasonable justification for being in love with someone then you have a very superficial concept of love (hope Jet Set Radio started blasting in your head, too). If anything the best reason one could support it with is he finds her attractive, but outside of the irrational I see little reason for his infatuation, though in a way that's partly the point of the story (the whole "I like you cuz you're mysterious" angle falls under that line of thinking as well). But I will admit, I did not explain my reasoning thoroughly enough and it's one of the many things I wish I could change about the video, but too late for that now. A friend even gave the same critique when I test screened it for them, oh why did I not take that as a sign... Either way, that's just my opinion anyways so if you feel it's totally justified then that's totally fine with me! I love to hear what others think either way, so I greatly appreciate everyone sharing their thoughts with me. On a completely unrelated note (but I have nobody else who cares about both FF7 and Scott Pilgrim to talk about it with), am I the only one who feels the flashback with Cloud and Tifa parting as kids bears an uncanny resemblance to the flashback with Scott dumping Kim? I feel along with the unreliable narrator nature of both stories it almost can't be a coincidence

I have yet to watch the new anime, but it's very fascinating to hear what everybody have to say about it without even knowing what happens in it, but Scott being gone is a common thread. Which is, of course, exactly what you would want

    This video perfectly encapsulates "You just had to be there." A lot of people who weren't, don't realize that the movie was being created at the same time as the comics after vol 1. There was no way for the movie to be a 1:1 adaption because both creators (Bryan Lee O'Malley and Edgar Wright) were influencing each other. Which is why I don't fault the movie for not adapting what wasn't even written yet. I look at it as a game of "Telephone" and love it for the stylistic way it blends film and comics as media (like the Spiderverse movies). That being said, I'm just glad all adaptions lead more people to check out my favorite comics, and it was nice to hear a fellow fan's insight.

      That is something I have come to be aware of since, but from what I understand Edgar didn't enter the picture until around when book 5 was being written (which of course is completely skipped by the movie) so it seems it's really only the ending that Edgar and co. gave Bryan ideas back. Either way, selling the rights to adapt a comic series before the whole thing is even anywhere close to being done strikes me as a silly choice. I have come to mellow out on the movie a bit, if other people enjoy it then that's a good enough reason for it to exist (just so long as I don't have to watch it ever again myself, haha). Thanks for watching and sharing your input! Always fascinating to hear from people that were fans before myself

      @@davistoa Nah, Edgar Wright signed on to direct in '04. Then started co-writing the first draft with Michael Bacall in '05. That was right before vol 2 came out. So they'd send script drafts to O'Malley, and he was involved throughout the production (even helping with rewrites). O'Malley even admitted to stealing some things from their drafts. Scott saying "You had a sexy phase?" when learning about Roxy in vol 4 is something he took from their scripts. I'm unclear on the timeline of when exactly, but if that's in vol 4, they influenced each other for at least over half of the series. I also agree that it's not a good idea to adapt something incomplete, but I'm glad it accomplished the Adaption Goal of being good enough to cause fans to want to check out the source material.

    THANK YOU for touching on Kim’s feelings for Scott, nobody ever talks about it since it’s not really implied in the movie, but it’s pretty clear in the books that she still has feelings towards him.

    I am not a good reader, by that I mean it's pretty much impossible for me to sit and focus on the book long enough to actually get through it. but I remember in high school I had a friend let me borrow the book and about three or four weeks later I had gone through the entire series. I don't remember another time in which I fell into a graphic novel so hard. Incredibly charming and kept me turning the page all the way through. I need to bite the bullet and buy myself the box it already. That here and I can't think of a single piece of medium that encapsulates my high school experience more. I would love to read it again
