Saberspark Can you do a review on Bomberman Jetters
Saberspark I was the 2 comment look
We Happy Few is coming out fully August 10th!
So is the Slender Man movie...
Well, I'll be happy for We Happy Few.
Review direct to video Disney sequels.
“I’ll Shower Saber With Coconut Cream Pies.”
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I'll shower him first.
Saberspark himself liked that comment... (insert 'secret fetish' joke) XD
Yaas cream pieeeeeeeeeeee
*Cream me up daddy*
DK, is that you?
Who else would it be?

It’s how life works
I dont even wanna know what the song is about at this point
No introduction

Honestly, I'm not surprised. Not much good comes from there other than poutine lol.

@@selectivepontification8766 very true
5:00 Diddy Kong’s Puples blinking instead of his actual eyes is terrifying.
babybus:
It's actually not super uncommon. Sonic used to do it in the cartoons
"Ever since Candy cut my hair and told me she wanted to make me her little love slave-"
Okay, I have no idea who the hell thought this would be a good line for a kid's show, but I just LOVE how nonchalantly he says it X'D As if 'love slave' is a term that pops up on a regular basis in everyday conversation lmao
I died reading this comment
Wait that doesn't happen for...guys...should I talk to someone?
They forgot it was a kids show
I-it's not...?
...that would be completly swood!....
11:42 I laughed so hard i swear to god
@Astronova /: it's not penis bruh
@Astronova /: dats better
SAME XDD
Peeble Kitty same
Peeble Kitty His singing is lowkey good
The only things good about this
1.the songs are freaking amazing
2.the characters look acurate
3. it matches the style of the games
4. The show is actually a bit funny
Well it’s one of the first 3D animation 2 year after toys story
Indeed the 0:48 part made me laugh somehow
I also like K rool’s voice actor I feel like he fits really well
That sounds like a good show
@@DrBreakNeckK Rool: I’ll be back.
I can't believe Saber actually doubted Jim Carrey as Robotnik.
"I'm nobody's hero" is the saddest song I've ever heard.
He's dead! Chunky's dead! He's dead!
MIRROR MIRROR WHAT'S BEHIND YOU.
Bruh XD
This is the best song that describes me
Lmao

"And then there's chunky! He's dead."
HUH! DK! CHUNKY'S DEAD!

Impossible.

"Writing? Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't that involve knowing something?" That line is gold!
I think he said "rating" but I'm not sure because of his accent...
That part of the video played as I read this comment and I’m sHaKeN
@@kitkatboard no he said writing
"Like the alphabet?!" He goes on.
@@kitkatboard The context is that the character on the right was making a script for a movie, hence the remark in the video, so he does say "writing"
The Sonic Movie turned out alright. Maybe there's hope for Mario.
Hopefully
Illumination makes medeoker moviee
I think it'll be a good video game movie. But if it's going to be a good movie in general is iffy. It's being made by illumination... BUT Nintendo has a huge creative control on the movie, and a huge control in general. The reason why Sonic wasn't a good video game movie was because Sega wasn't watching the project.
@@goatmilk1 sonic was fine imo,it was just the original sonic in the movie that was horrible.
Yeah
Normally I watch this kind of show and hate the music parts, but I watched this one exclusively for the songs. The guy, that voiced Donkey Kong, has a great singing voice
As a kid, I remember loving this cartoon. It was like a young person's The Room.
Agreed.
You're tearing me apart, Candy!
Mathmachine You could call today's The Room RUclips Poop Material: The Movie AKA Norm of the North.
I remember watching this all the time lol
Great taste

11:43 this made me laugh so hard
It also goes well with the dancing
Thank fuck I was starting to think I was the only one who found this bit hysterical 🤣
to the tune of the dk rap (dk's part)
"he's the leader of the bunch
you know him well,
this cartoon looks like
it's straight from hell"
I got a funny idea make a short film using the DK 64 assets Nintendo would shut you down they shut people down for using their assets but I think it be pretty neat
*HUH! DK! CARTOON'S HELL!*

@@sped4937 am I a joke to all of you?
@@roboturtle214 :(
that CGI animation looks pretty damn good for how old it is And as far as adaptations go it’s a lot closer to what donkey Kong is then what the Mario or sonic were to their own shows I personally believe that sonic boom takes place in the same universe it’s the same island
Why did i laugh at the “ive fallen and cant get up” part
0:53 Dixie kong looks high😂😂
Literally have
Dixie on that Pixie

Detective Pikachu Is Awesome, love pretty much every aspect of it.
@Something Studios Sonic is a big deal since he was the one to finally break the "video game movie curse".
Kirby right back at ya: Hold my star rod
I think it's impressive that they use motion capture for the animation.
11:42 best song ever. I laughed my ass off

Hey donkey Kong how’d you get that tutu to fit?

Come on cranky take it to the fridge
Walnuts, peanuts,pineapple smells,grapes,melons oranges and coconut shells walnuts peanuts,pineapple smells,grapes,melons,oranges and coconut shells oh yeah!
Why does the animation remind me of "Sid the science kid", but worse.
_because it is sid the science kid but worse_
How is that possible
Nah at least Sid the science kid taught me a little stuff
I used to watch this every day after school. Its the most perfect example of so bad its good. I still remember one of the character models glitching out and extending the belly button a foot into the air. It just hovers there for a whole scene and nobody fixed it xD
It you want to see an even more perfect example of so bad it’s good, watch the Super Mario Bros Super Show.
*Why is DK voice actor such a good singer?*
Luigi Mui Dk voice actor and singer were different people
Luigi Mui the songs sounded like Panic at the disco
Luigi Mui If I’m right his singing VA (Sterling Jarvis I believe?) also does musicals and was a R&B singer! Dude has a crazy gorgeous voice for being in a Donkey Kong cartoon.
@@AtomicCrowbar it’s Jarvis!
He also sang the Zooboomaphoo theme!
You can thank Richard Yearwood as the voice and Sterling Jarvis for the singing voice of the Ground-Pounding Ape
11:40 - 11:53
We need to make an album for saberspark that just consists of songs like this

Saberspark 2 years ago: "Howabout the Sonic movie? *oh my god...*"
2 years later: *Sonic movie smashes box office records for most successful video game movie of all time*
I don't think that's true. I mean I really like the Sonic the Hedgehog movie and it was very successful but it didn't break any records. Pretty sure it is in the top 10 best box office for video game movies
Friend: Oh man, I got a bad case of a cold.
Saber: *singing voice* You just got a viral disease all over your face, get away from me
The song at 10:40 is literally me when anybody blames even the smallest of things on me

This is the first review I watched that actually mentioned the motion capture. Seriously, this is the most informative review channel I've ever found.
"I'm getting all the blame for things I didn't do"
Why is that surprisingly relatable.
Fun Fact: Ive fallen and I cant get up is trademarked now to the company that made that commercial.

The "FBI! OPEN UP!" part still has me on tears.
tbh, this is definitely one of the “better” animated content he’s reviewed imo
You know, I did shower my eyes with Coconut cream.
I went blind.
"The people making the Castlevania series should also do Metroid as well."
I never knew how much I needed something so badly in my life until I heard that sentence.
100% onboard with this. Where do we sign to make this a thing?
It needs to be graphic I want to see Ridley ripping a scientist and half Sam is fighting for her life in the hospital from the parasite X and her bing hunted down by the SA-X over the course a season with tons and tons of childhood flashbacks
I’m a huge fan of Metroid 4 even though the game sucks its the prettiest the story is straight out of alien
it’s basically easy mode if you can’t beat Metroid 4 then you shouldn’t play Metroid games it’s by far the easiest Metroid with the classic gameplay
_"Never in my life have I needed something so much until I received it."_
@@IsaiahAmos017 The game sucks?
Fusion is literally the best game for me
I have finished It about 5 times
LVBBoi it is the best looking 2d Metroid game it’s one of the best GameBoy advance games Best bosses etc. and I am nostalgic for it it was the first Metroid game I actually played or beat and I still play it but talking to that computer just sucks the life out of you and on your 2nd play through that’s really annoying I didn’t notice it or care when it was the first Metroid game I ever played since I’ve played most of them and fusion is the only one that has this problem keep in mind I understand the game Hass to be linear and that’s not a problem hand holding is the problem
You can bet on one thing from that upcoming Sonic movie: the memes will be spicy delicious.
Jeremy Higgins and then end up in a cringe compilation.

...Explanation is needed. A *big* explanation
I can’t lie. This is actually a guilty pleasure of mine
Now I do see it’s faults and that it’s not necessarily good but it’s a guilty pleasure
Like all the super Mario cartoons. (Except those are actually not that bad(
Also, did DK become a Backstreet Boy all of a sudden?? That's hilarious!
I really enjoyed this video. Great humor, editing, script, and an overall great review! Another great job, Saber!

This cartoon was... Something...
At least we had the Mario and Zelda cartoons. They're watchable.
And Kirby was Amazing.
Bryce Mckenzie I haven’t watched Kirby yet, but I want to.
Square Wave Watch both the Japanese and English versions. They each have something to offer.
Bryce Mckenzie Zelda cartoon watchable? Well EXCUSE ME
Bryce Mckenzie don't forget Sonic SATAM. And Sonic X, if you like the anime. I know I did and it's now difficult for me to see anyone but Dan Green voicing Knuckles anymore because of it
Bryce Mckenzie Again, How exactly the Zelda cartoon was "enjoynable"?
This wasn't the first time DK made his debut on TV. There existed 2 shows based on the arcade games. One for the 1981 arcade, the other for DK Jr. Fun fact: Mario in the 1981 show was voiced by Peter Cullen. That's right. Optimus Prime himself. Frank Welker also voiced Donkey Kong Jr.
Before the pandemic I watched the first half of season 1 with my best friend and it was genuinely one of the funniest things we’ve ever seen. Hell, some of the songs are unironically fire.
"I'd shower you with coconut cream"
no, NOOOOOO
Baron Anoch Oml it sounds so wrong. 😂
Haha, right?! I wish Sabes would bring back the "No! NOOOO!!" Joshua & the Promised Land meme in his videos. Classic. The one somebody made of Saber in 3D CGI Joshua style shown at the end of the Globgoglabkjhskvbkj video was perfect.
No Donkey Kong go away, I don’t want to be showered in your weird coconut cream
It's a special recipe ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
Don't worry once you'll be showered you will feel...
*vErY gOoD*
I definitely want to be showered by his coconut cream.
Everyone please receive christ
Sara K. I can do that *WITH* his coconut cream.
It's kind of funny seeing Saber's reaction to Jim Carrey being cast as Robotnik, when he turned out to be one of the best things about the films. And the Mario movie is looking amazing, too. Just saying, everyone assumed the worst but video game films are actually getting pretty good.
1:18 “He can talk?” “Yeah, it’s gettin him to shut up that’s the trick!”
“Robot you give me a pain in the neck. Wait! Robot no!” *squish noise*
“Well he’s dead.”
That part made me literally burst out in laughter
He really wanted to be someone's "Love Slave"
NANCOK :0
Scp-174 in a nutshell
11:45 Hey, Saber, u sing well
I watched every episode when I was younger back in the late 2000s. I thought the show was good then. Rewatching this show feels like a fever dream. The DK games are fun, but I like to imagine the show is in some alternative universe.
The DKC video games are NOT fun, they are waaayyy too hard, I literally stopped playing the second one after being unable to be Bramble Blast.
What if it was in the Sonic Boom Verse?
@@gijoe820 didn't ever get notified for this response. Anyways - part of the fun for me came from the challenge. I beat all the snes games.
@@superdupermariobrother1146 cool, but probably not since Sonic and Donkey Kong aren't owned by the same company.
This show was my *_FRICKING_* Childhood,
Good to see saber doing a video about it
I still have the DVD somewhere in my home i think
"do you know what DK stands for?"
"Donkey Kong"
"Drift king"

Tokyo kong
KD, KONKY DONG!

11:45 I’m crying
12:00
I repeat it so many times.
Sabersparks songwriting skills are on point. They're the work of a true artist. Give this man an award.
Saber, you mention that this show did a good job of capturing the esthetic of the game. When people have complained about this show, the faithfulness to the game is the last complaint people have about it. Really, what we say is bad about the show is the plots of the episodes. They're so weird and bizarre. Although, I do like this show ironically
11:47 Best song of 2018
Lit AF
Pixel Soldier yes
Three words.
Animal Crossing Movie
l1o2q3u4i5n no Candy crush movie
That movie was great!
Mince Raft Movie
That’s a thing?
Cooper Animates Yes, that actually is a thing. It was never released outside of japan but there is a very good English fan-dub online.
"I'll shower you with coconut cream pies."
We were supposed to do a video project, write it, video it, show it. Simple right? Long story shot I accidentally send this and my teacher didint notice until he opened the video and infront of the whole class saw and heard a terrifying DK singing, long story short I got sent to detention because they thought I did it on purpose or somthing, now my nickname to that class is “DK girl” i still love the video
6:08 You may spank it *once*
Superior Moustache what? Why once you tease!
I shower you with coconut cream pieeees.
No... NOOOO
Darth Vader Nooooooooooo
No, no god no, no. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
God i remember being upset when this stopped airing
I have a VCR collection of this show from my childhood. I do not know why, nor how I got them. I just assume that the managed to manifest themselves while looking for a new host to drain.
“You, you got sexual transmitted diseases
All over your crotch region
Get away from me”
Watched this video 5 times today just because of that.
GOLD!
Lol I know
I just wish they'd make a Smash Bros anime. I'm serious. Anime style, but also gives off their individual vibe. Basically Subspace with voice acting.
JoJo337_ the closest we got to a Smash Bros anime was Palutena's reveal trailer (which was pretty cool)
I would like to see subspace emmisary in anime style though. It would work really well
Liopleurodon 2000 oh that was amazing.
JoJo337_ they have one now
That would be actually pretty fire tbh, can we petition for this?
Chavon James Then again, Subspace Emissary in the amazing style of the trailers for Switch would be brilliant.
“Oh these are some pretty cool bananas... aaAAAA-“

I NEED A MONSTA TO CLOBBA THAT THERE KIRBY!
SUPER MARIO BROS SUPER SHOW.
Poyo
"Suck them Kirby!"
@@rompevuevitos222 why
I think more
...
Pokemon anime
This honestly feels like it's an older version of Sonic Boom (tv show), except with surprisingly good music.
... It feels so wrong to say something Sonic related has bad music.
The Tiger Handhelds.
Sonic Underground.
Try Sonic Chronicles. I wonder if there was even a sound team at all on that game.
Either way, it does kinda feel like Sonic Boom yeah, hadn't thought of that. Huh, cool.
even the worst sonic games have great music. doesnt make the games any better, but His World and Hail Shadow (i think that's the name) are some of the best songs in the worst game ever
The Pokeman 52 hail shadow? Do you "I am all of me? "
Well hey, Detective Pikachu did well. It carried the charm of the series, did better than the game it was based on, stayed true to the source material (I will never stop appreciating that the policemen had Growlithes), and the designs were all really good!
Also, the team behind Castlevania is in fact doing a new VG series, but they have their sights set on Devil May Cry. I know a series based on that already exists, but I don't think it went very far and Bootleg Universe has shown themselves to be very capable. I'm excited. 😀
Saberspark: they weren’t that good
Super Mario Bros. Super Show: *now let me stop you right there*
EDIT: I mean to be honest most of these cartoons weren't horrible. Kind of appealing honestly.
SO THIS IS WHERE THE 'COCONUT CREAM PIE' MEME CAME FROM!
the birth of the expand dong meme,as later done by vinesauce joel
Donkey Kong should definitely have his own album.
0:30 I’m ngl this show was my childhood and I never knew if they found their mom

PEASHOOTER 6023 ha! Jokes on you, my mam is a mango!
This is like the only show that saber is reacting to and he gives it good rating
I used to watch this as a kid. My dad would rent it for me at blockbuster lol.
You may wanna give the Sonic Boom show a shot. It's probably the first instance of a TV show massively overshadowing the game it originated from. Granted, it was a tie-in production, but unlike the game, the Sonic Boom show has some pretty great moments! The characters are all over the place and tend to very conveniently take whichever role fits the episodes' narrative instead of the character traits, but the humor has some surprising cleverness to it - and it looks good, too!
That said, making Metroid a TV show would be an awful idea. 90% of it would be either Samus monologuing or shooting stuff, and the rest would be random aliens. Samus as a charracter has adopted the silence as stoicism and calmness - breaking that can lead to a horrible case of Other M, and the franchise still hasn't recovered from that (all Metroid games since then ranged from godawful to meh).
Kaze Memaryu Metroid Samus Returns was basically an Apology for Other M
I don't see how. Besides the game being painfully mediocre, nothing about it implies that anyone learned their lesson. If anything, Samus Returns shows pretty well how little Nintendo cares about the legacy of Metroid.
I do not think a metroid cartoon would be a definite failure.
Samurai jack packed lots of story with action and minimal dialogue into its show.
But a blaster and a sword are entirely different and their interaction with the world differs greatly.
Insert funny comment about sanic scene
Kaze Memaryu Sonic has the greatest track record when it comes to outside media. I only wish he would be consistingly good,when it comes to his games.
11:45 you should be a musician
that one strange guy lol
My older cousin loved this show as a kid and would watch it like crazy and I went to his house one day and saw he had a vhs of Donkey Kong Country Legend of the Crystal Coconut and he let me have it and it was his childhood copy the only copy he had of the entire show and I went home and watched it over and over again to the point I showed it to my brother who loved too and me and him watched it over and over again and we still have it to this day seriously y’all need to watch this show
I love this fever dream of a show. It manages to hit that sweet spot of surrealism without tipping into the Uncanny Valley
