@@Bagel920 Cause companies nowadays are risk-averse. They want to maximize profits and minimize loss by being as strategic with market penetration as possible as opposed to doing anything and everything in the hopes something sticks. It's good for them, but it sucks on a creative level as all projects, big or small, require capital investment, meaning we likely will never see truly outlandish ideas or projects ever again with an existing intellectual property.
Well back in the era that this show was made, that was the look. It wasn’t truck stop crack addict, it was a crack addict you could take home to ma. You could respectfully bring her to your home where your family did crack as well. So they could be like “Mmm yes a decent fellow crack addict.” Truck stop crack addicts back in this show’s era looked totally different.
Years and years later, I still think it's crazy that an officially licensed Nintendo product took the Biblical Old Testament story of Samson and made it about Donkey Kong. I'm disappointed he didn't beat anyone to death with the jawbone of a donkey, but maybe that would have confused viewers.
I really like that Dunkey is laughing about that being Dixie while she looks like she is about to cry. Like she can hear his mockery. Also, Donkey Kong's sad song is too good for this show.
This should be Donkey kong's final smash in smash switch, where everything just stops and all the kongs sing a musical number about friendship And any foe within earshot instantly trips on a banana peel, ruining their friendship with donkey kong forever
Wait a second...... *flashbacks to Super Smash Bros Brawl* Oh my gosh..... The reason you trip in Brawl is because Donkey Kong put invisible banana peels on the ground.... what a monster.
does anybody know the name??? it was an animated series in this same style of 3D render graphics, I can only remember the main characters were animals that shapeshifted into vehicle forms, kinda like transformers but animal shapes
If I recall correctly, that was actually supposed to be a thing from the beginning, but this cartoon went ahead and took it seriously/confirmed it as canon. Fucking weird shit, I know.
This cartoon almost won an animation award for its animation, but was disqualified because they thought mocap didn't count as animation at the time. Did they retroactively take awards away from everything rotoscoped after that decision? :P
does anybody know the name??? it was an animated series in this same style of 3D render graphics, I can only remember the main characters were animals that shapeshifted into vehicle forms, kinda like transformers but animal shapes
which is weird right after I randomly remembered of Beast Wars there was announcement of a game based on it, that setting gonna be perfect for a videogame
Somebody thought of that. A real person sat down and thought "what if his hair is actually his skull, with hair on it?" He wrote that idea down, and showed it to somebody else, and that other person looked at it and said "yes, yes let's put that into the show." At least one Nintendo lawyer knew about this idea before it was executed. It happened anyway. This idea made it past storyboarding, dialogue recording, and animation. An editor put it together. A LOT of people were involved in making that idea become a reality. I just don't understand the world anymore.
This is like an Anti-Dunkey episode. Usually, in a Dunkey episode, he comedically exaggerates an aspect of a game and makes statements that are so incorrect that you can't help but laugh. In this video, everything Dunkey states is factual and he simply lets the show speak for itself.
The strangest part of this show is that despite how fucking horrible and weird it is..The dude who sings as Donkey Kong is legitimately really talented. That's a great voice.
Honestly though, I adored this show when I was a kid. Or at least the DVD release of a collection of three episodes that I just watched over and over again.
Look up "I'm a metalhead." There is even a vid without diddy kong's horrific voice. The singer for donkey Kong is fantastic, and that aforementioned song is catchy as all get out.
DONKEY KONG DECEMBER, DONKEY KONG DECEMBER, I need to let the universe know this. I attempted to show it to my mother to disturb her as she's beat DKC 1,2, and 3. Her response? "Oh yeah. We had a TON of those on vhs. You used to love it when you were 3 or 4. That explains a hell of a lot of things about myself.
Donkey Kong 64 took years to make. Based on the animation quality, I'm guessing this show was made in about 30 minutes. The DK Rap could have been ready
Daniel Alejadro Pacheco Torres... Exactly, Donkey Kong's singing voice sounds like a black Kevin Gilbert (Kevin Gilbert being a forgotten musician who was inspired by Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins........ he died at age 29 from chocking himself while making "Coconut Cream Pie").
remember folks, if you go bald, you'll lose all of your muscle power and in your hair's place will be a tumorous growth in the exact shape of your hair
In the iconic "I'm Nobody's Hero" scene, we see the prodigious Donkey Kong at his lowest point. Drained of his defining strength, and crushed under waves of self loathing, DK wails his sorrow into the cold unfeeling world in this chilling musical number. Many have speculated that the plane's erratic flight pattern prior to the opening verse is deeply rooted symbolism, for the rise, fall, and redemption of the biblical figure Sampson, which this genre defining story took it's inspiration from. Perhaps the infinite blue void symbolizes God, or a deity of some sort that Donkey Kong laments to. When viewed through this religious lens, the line "Can anybody tell me what I've done wrong? I'm all alone and I'm so confused." can be seen as DK questioning his faith, and for once opening his mind to the prospect of a truly random, and chaotic realm in which he is absolutely alone. While chilling to think of, this scene is iconic because of the several possible interpretations of what lies in Donkey Kong's mind, and beyond. No matter how you view it, it's hard to deny the chills that sink to one's bones when hearing DK accept his grim reality as, as he puts it, "an absolute zero." This effectively canonically chronicles DK's decent into nihilism, which of course forever echoes in the DK mythos. Just as Walter White "died" in the crawlspace, and emerged as something new, The same happen's to DK, as we see the downfall of the Kong family in years to come. Of course, as God allowed Sampson his strength back for one final righteous slaughter, the bulls-eye banana restores strength back to a whole new entity, one that only barely resembles Donkey Kong on the surface. Overall, this scene is timeless, and damn flawless too. I've yet to see another like it with as much thematic relevancy, and raw emotion. Truly, a perfect scene.
I'm not reading that whole thing cuz I just woke up and don't have the mental energy for it, but I love you, and I will love you forever. Happy Birthday.
I mean there's a difference between a reference and straight up stealing a plotline from another media. I pretty much believe that all work is derivative from some other work in some shape or form, but they just copy+pasted that story into Donkey Kong.
I think we should just take a step back and realize the Donkey Kong TV show is making biblical references. This show has transcended creation and has achieved Nirvana. Why question it? Simply bask in its glory.
Panzer Man I mean the plots from Shakespeare's plays are constantly used in modern day media, and even his plays borrowed ideas from mythology and existing stories.
"Years of friendship gone. Negated by a single banana." Very accurate description of mario kart

Why wouldn't it be so?
You ever think that maybe her calling DK a baboon as a insult is like calling him a racial slur for apes?
Can't be a racial slur since a baboon is the correct title for an animal--which means it's just racist to baboons
equivalent of her straight up calling him a jew. maybe they’re in their third reichy kong

meme culture? what? that's like... a normie thing to say
DONKEY KONG DECEMBER BABYYYY! , it’s so cool.
jokes asides, I really liked the sad song that DK sings
So nobody is gonna say anything about the shape of DK’s head
Nathan Craig ikr i thought the curvy part was his hair not his actual head
We don’t speak of that
Omg! Right!?!
its forbidden
Cheaper than changing the model fully.
”This is like a mod for Jimmy Neutron, or something”
*WHY IS THAT SO ACCURATE*
They're both on the uncomfortable side of the uncanny valley, with jerky animation and emotional expressions turned to 500%
@@Dorian-_-Gray Oh no I’m sorry mr comment police
@@trevorperkins4585 Not to mention DK and Jimmy's hair is very similar
Coming to watch this because it's Donkey Kong December!
Dude, I had an orange VHS tape of 2 or 3 of these episodes
The Donkey Kong TV Show really makes you *feel* like Batman.
nothing can make you feel more batman
If this person is a youtuber, then I am batman! Awful editing.
Derick Trinidad hi batman
I remember seeing this at the dollar store on VHS when I was a kid, I was mad because my dad said we couldn't get it...thank god he said that.
Jihyo love we rented it from Hollywood Video once...
And I was never the same again
I made the mistake of buying a vhs of this instead of The Iron Giant. I still regret my decision.
Your dad couldn't afford $1?
I think his dad was being responsible and knew that no kid should watch something this... special.
Actually, I think you'd probably like it if you were a kid.
4:25 are you telling me Donkey Kong's head is actually shaped that way? I always though it was just his hair.
Imagine you got to be the dancer for Our Love Is Stronger Than A Golden Banana.
Think of the honour your bloodline would inherit
In the iconic "I'm Nobody's Hero" scene, we see the prodigious Donkey Kong at his lowest point. Drained of his defining strength, and crushed under waves of self loathing, DK wails his sorrow into the cold unfeeling world in this chilling musical number. Many have speculated that the plane's erratic flight pattern prior to the opening verse is deeply rooted symbolism, for the rise, fall, and redemption of the biblical figure Sampson, which this genre defining story took it's inspiration from. Perhaps the infinite blue void symbolizes God, or a deity of some sort that Donkey Kong laments to. When viewed through this religious lens, the line "Can anybody tell me what I've done wrong? I'm all alone and I'm so confused." can be seen as DK questioning his faith, and for once opening his mind to the prospect of a truly random, and chaotic realm in which he is absolutely alone. While chilling to think of, this scene is iconic because of the several possible interpretations of what lies in Donkey Kong's mind, and beyond. No matter how you view it, it's hard to deny the chills that sink to one's bones when hearing DK accept his grim reality as, as he puts it, "an absolute zero." This effectively canonically chronicles DK's decent into nihilism, which of course forever echoes in the DK mythos. Just as Walter White "died" in the crawlspace, and emerged as something new, The same happen's to DK, as we see the downfall of the Kong family in years to come. Of course, as God allowed Sampson his strength back for one final righteous slaughter, the bulls-eye banana restores strength back to a whole new entity, one that only barely resembles Donkey Kong on the surface. Overall, this scene is timeless, and damn flawless too. I've yet to see another like it with as much thematic relevancy, and raw emotion. Truly, a perfect scene.
So many layers. Like a poem, each stanza builds upon itself. Each scene is so dense.
I'm not reading that whole thing cuz I just woke up and don't have the mental energy for it, but I love you, and I will love you forever. Happy Birthday.
Best analysis I've ever seen in my life

If you cut his hair he loses his strength? We just gonna gloss over the fact that they stole that from Samson in the Bible?
The bible stole the plot line from Donkey Kong.
I believe it's called a reference. A LOT of media borrows from or is inspired by other media, the Bible, etc.
I mean there's a difference between a reference and straight up stealing a plotline from another media. I pretty much believe that all work is derivative from some other work in some shape or form, but they just copy+pasted that story into Donkey Kong.
I think we should just take a step back and realize the Donkey Kong TV show is making biblical references. This show has transcended creation and has achieved Nirvana. Why question it? Simply bask in its glory.
Panzer Man I mean the plots from Shakespeare's plays are constantly used in modern day media, and even his plays borrowed ideas from mythology and existing stories.
Had to be here for DONKEY KONG DECEMBER
Uses every part of the "Our Love Is Stronger Than A Golden Banana" song except the coconut cream pies part. Truly genius.
“I SHOWER YOU IN COCONUT CREAM PIES!”
Yes, this is real
I know
Cursed
Get your head out of the gutter
something makes me think the coconut cream pies is just coconut cream pies but without the coco
