>formulaic
Thats not a sign its bad though.
You have to like the formula to get into it. I know the nature of this type of show is to eventually subvert the formula in different ways, but I didn't care for the formula enough to want to see it subverted.
Sounds like a (you) problem then.
OP LITERALLY JUST SAID THAT.
True but it's also great.
Wrong. Rewatch it and see.
>OP LITERALLY JUST SAID THAT.
Or did they
Both of them got ruined by shipping cringe. AT fell much harder.
Agreed. I dropped both shows the moment they decended into relationship drama.
I will say this - Regular Show's relationship drama felt way more out of place than Adventure Time's drama, but I still feel Finn was overall more embarrassing to watch than Mordecai.
And other hilarious jokes you can tell yourself.
Mordecai simp episodes > Adventure Time post S5
True, Reg Show was so formulaic it hurts.
>goofing off
>gotta work
>simping
>problem arises
>big boss fight
>roll credits
But the anticipation of how they'll go about each plot is the fun part.
everything you just listed can be equally attributed to adventure time.
AT has those elements across the show, but RS has them in them play out in the same order, the same way practically every episode.
I liked AT in the beginning more than RS in the beginning. It's the whole reason I fell off of watching RS while I kept up with AT even when it turned to shit. It was all momentum from my enjoyment of the early seasons. But knowing thoroughly how AT turned out, I imagine RS couldn't be worse. I believe people who say it turned out better. Still probably won't go back and watch it though. I do still remember the cringe.
Only the first 2 seasons. The others don't matter.
The shipping of this show is so horrendous. Finn got robbed of literally everything for no reason. Brutal
I watched some 13 year old PB scenes and she and him were fricking perfect together. She turns 18 and just becomes this unlikable c**t, literally propaganda against dykes. People meme about women writers, but I think they actually are poisonous, and that other dude moniham or something, heard he wrote breezy.
he did and he's a tryhard intellectual to a T along with Alden. Then you have the dykeshippers like Sugar, Muto, Hanna and the one literal troony
Literally the only reason people dislike alden is that tweet. He actually wrote Finn with respect.
>I watched some 13 year old PB scenes and she and him were fricking perfect together
This was why I was obsessed with them as a kid. I used to draw pictures in school of them when they were like that because it had such an impact on me.
lol gay
It's one of the less homosexual things I did as a kid actually
>She turns 18 and just becomes this unlikable c**t
The effects are.. instantaneous
The old PB died that day and got reincarnated as a lesbian tyrant.
iirc they made princess bubblegum 13 as sort of an "emergency ending" in case the show wasn't renewed
Honestly the should have just stuck to Bubblegum being 18 or whatever instead some 1000 year old immortal Dr. Mengele larping bisexual
The keyword is “WAS”, before it turned into a shipping fest after the door singing episode.
You act as if Regular Show didn't also turn into that but somehow even more pathetic with Mordecai being a cringe lord.
Who was a more pathetic simp: Finn or Mordecai?
Mordecai
Mordecai got a girl. Finn has 0 b***hes.
Mordecai. Finn wasn't even a [BUZZWORD], just an easily lovestruck fool
Finn was just a kid and in all honesty kind of got groomed by PB. Also he was crushing on a princess and not some hot coffee shop tramp who gets passed around by older men.
Mordecai was a simp, Finn was a cuck.
Finn was a 2019 guy?
maybe
Mordecai was a bigger simp but not really out of the norm for a dude in his mid-20s; he simply grew out of it. Finn on the other hand objectively peaked in his childhood, as he grew up he just became more and more of a a washed up weirdo.
Finn only became like that because the writers actively hated him, it's literally like halfway through his existance, "God" just decided that his life would become outright misery forever
No. Finn was going thru puberty and made some shitty decisions, he also went thru some traumatic shit. By the end of the show he's learned what he did wrong, grown more mature, and become a better person.
based
Mordecai actually tried to kill his childhood BFF for a chance to sniff Margarets ass so he is the Simp King.
The closest Finn has ever got to that level was accidentally getting Ice King killed to fulfill his weird fetish for teenage girls beating the shit outta old men. But he actually stopped Ice King from getting roasted. Which was his Arch-nemesis back then, even though it ruined his relationship with Flame Princess so I can respect him for that.
Name one thing AT did better than RS aside from coom material
Music
Look Buster! That homosexual says Adventure Time was better than Regular Show.
Oh my god, Donald. He can't actually believe that unless he's a massive autist
>Donald
was
I know why Adventure Time is bad but I don't know why Regular Show is good, or at least better. Enough for this statement to make people want to defend Regular Show.
That's not saying much.
>2022
>still get raging hard-on looking at Marcy feet
Why did the writers hate Finn guts so much? They Made him so fricking pathetic, it's not even funny
Did they? I don't remember him being pathetic
Well that time he rested his head on PBs lap then cried after was pretty pathetic, Then having a coomer dream and hurting his girlfriend was a pretty pathetic character assassination.
>Well that time he rested his head on PBs lap then cried after was pretty pathetic
It makes sense because he didn't really get closure for his dream romance suddenly ending. PB and the writers just said "get over it pussy" which isn't even how it works for adults who are less emotional. In hindsight it's pretty fricked up how they handled that.
It's pretty embarrassing how socially maladaptive the writers are when it comes to the little ends and means like that.
It was only like what, a few weeks? And they weren't even in a proper relationship. Love Finn, but he was being a little b***h.
True, but it was his one and only chance at being with his crush. In hindsight though, Finn could’ve done more to kick Lemongrab out of the Candy Kingdom.
Romance means a lot more when you're a kid because it's new and you're not jaded. I've seen how boys Finns age had similar experiences with girls even my brothers. And we saw before this Finn was simping hard for her. Young love is special and often sticks with you for many years if you've experienced it. It's just really weird how they chose to write that whole situation because they got the reaction right but I don't understand why they bothered doing it in the first place. And this was just the start of a theme throughout the show where Finn isn't allowed to have relationships that are healthy or last. It's like the writers bringing in the worst of real life to seem cool or subvert expectations, possibly even from their own personal issues in life.
He couldn't have relationships that were healthy and lasted because he was still an immature kid. That changed near the end with huntress wizard, and because of those experiences. That's life, my friend.
>He couldn't have relationships that were healthy and lasted because he was still an immature kid
That's cope because he never gets a long lasting healthy relationship even as an adult otherwise it would have been worth noting. He just waits to die and join his brother. His relationships are ruined for outright stupid and nonsensical reasons. His relationship with flame princess, who was a rebound to start with, ended because he suddenly had a fetish for seeing flame princess beat ice kings ass. That's not life that's just moronic. Stop making excuses for what's just blatantly bad writing.
They intentionally didn't fill in the blanks of his adult life.
And that's just more lazy shit writing, a 12 year old could unironically do better and it's embarrassing.
It's not lazy. It would actually be easier to do a spinoff of Finn's adult life than come up with whole new characters/storylines a la distant lands and fionna and cake.
>It's not lazy
It literally is. They're leaving the fans to pick up the slack and make up a story for Finn because they can't be bothered to do so themselves and would probably mess it up again anyway.
>just imagine he finally earned himself a stable romance by finally being "mature" enough
>relationship don't matter that much guys get over it
>meanwhile let me flaunt these lesbians happy ending
Same guy here. Another thing is they're going to be busy with the new Fiona show and adventure time has already been dragging on for a long time now. You choose to have a special where the characters get closure to basically show nothing of Finns adult life and have him and Jake be reincarnated as nobodies, which I still can't get over. It's so fricking lame.
The only person who has a truly decent and healthy relationship is Jake and LR, and he said Huntress wizards justification for not wanting to date was fricking stupid.
After she led him on for who knows how long since they met? Did you even watch the first 2 seasons?
And it was all done to please the woman who later destroyed western animation
What I'm getting from this is that Pen let a bunch of 20 somethings mess with HIS cartoon and change the Archie Betty and Veronica relationship he was going for?
Yes, and after ruining the show's premise she went off to work on her own cartoon where she never confirmed any of the speculated ships the way she forced FP on Finn
The idea first came up when Marceline's voice actress said the two characters used to date at a panel. She then said on Twitter she made it up and people got upset. The fan response at the panel was immensely positive.
Bubblegum hated Marceline because she was the fricking b***h-Ass-Vampire Queen.
I have never heard of the story you just posted. Looks like revisionism.
The sources are right there, find the Olivia panel and we can compare the dates to see which came first
A source would be if it came from Rebecca Sugar rather than someone who wrote an article claiming Rebecca Sugar told them something.
That's not how sources work
>She then said on Twitter she made it up and people got upset
I'll take obviously forced backpedalling for 400 alex.
>that quote from ward
Kinda gross
What's gross about it
It just makes me wonder who else in the cast were sex objects to Ward
>making a character attractive means they can ONLY be a sex object
People like you are what is wrong with the internet these days
Under Ward the princesses were damsels in distress, which is an objectifying trope if ever there was one. Think about Tree Trunks, who was voiced by an old lady Ward knew growing up and how flirty she was with Finn in the beginning. I bet Ward was clapping those granny cheeks for sure
Anyone else see PB as emotionally manipulative and borderline abusive towards Finn? She wants this professional (subservient) relationship with him while also keeping the coals of his romance for her lit, in Burning Low and then again when she pretends to be his dad so he quickly gets over his revenge thing. All to serve her needs and wants (masked by her need to “protect her people”).
Anon your on Cinemaphile, unless your a shipgay, most people here would agree with that sentiment.
Mute came in after Penn left as he see the whole thing sunk really bad
Penn left and subhumans like Sugar took the reins, they hated the idea of the show being about straight white kid going on adventures and saving princesses.
true
Only maybe in the very beginning. Regular Show was more consistently good.
Regular Show wasn't very good, Close Enough and Apple and Onion each do a half of its shtick way better
Enough and Apple and Onion each do a half of its shtick way better
Nah I disagree, both shows are horse shit, Close Enough was average at best, Apple & Onion felt more like Sanjay & Craig minus the gross shit plus some of the character designs are unappealing.
Close Enough has a better large main cast than RS, they're not as one note as Muscle Man, High Five Ghost etc even though some of the plots are eh, and Apple & Onion has the better wacky wagie duo adventures, RS gets way too formulaic and isn't as funny when you get older.
>some of the character designs are unappealing
He says on Cinemaphile which worships EEnE
Both got shitty in different ways at similar times it hurts, but overall Regular show ended on a higher note.
>Apple and Onion
If you liked Regular Show you owe it to yourself to watch A&O, it does the "two wagies" premise much better, it never falls into formulas and never resorts to references or parodies or stoner humor or memes etc
The artstyle is actual garbage snd I feel such joy having never watched it.
Is it worth watching AT again? I stopped watching around the time the plot became somber and focused on romance, and feel like I missed out on a important part of my adolescence.
>Is it worth watching AT again?
I tried it, no.
Ok I guess back to forgetting this show existed
I don't even bother to rewatch because I know like with anything else it won't be anything like the first time. I've tried this with multiple games and shows and have been repeatedly disappointed. Not only do you have to factor in that but like it's been said a thousand times adventure time just keeps getting worse as it goes on in large part because the main people who made it good and iconic left.
>the main people who made it good and iconic left.
This is just cope for people who can't reconcile that people who made stuff they liked also made stuff they hated. Fact is a lot of the "main people" were on the show for ages.
I'd say it is. I definitely felt the magic come back last time I tried rewatching it, just make sure you quit before you watch the Frost & Fire episode.
I watched the entire series start to finish the past few weeks after falling off around Fire and Ice back in the day. It’s worth the re-watch IMHO, it had its dips in quality but altogether it’s still a great series.
>Executive producer Adam Muto told TVLine that the relationship “evolved over time,” pointing to certain individuals on the team who helped the pairing develop — particularly writer/storyboarder Rebecca Sugar, who went on to create Steven Universe. Fans latched onto the relationship, especially after actress Olivia Olsen tweeted that creator Pendleton Ward told her Marceline and Bubblegum were exes. She later rescinded the statement, saying she liked to “make things up at panels,” but it still sparked interest.
Alright this is devolving again so lets speed it up.
From bustiest to flattest, go.
Everyone but Fiona and Susan are flat
Proof?
It was good but not THAT good, come on now!
The worst parts of regular show were some of the relationship episodes that were literally cringe inducing, the one that comes to mind the most is the friendzone.
The worst parts of adventure time were literal fricking seasons of nothing, and constantly humiliating finn, and turning an interesting and fun premise into a melodramatic slog
Regular show holds up better.
Regular show held up better also because that was the point, the show was about "20 something frickups and their misadventures" so that shit made sense.
i find myself wanting more regular show, and never thinking twice about adventure time.
things like regular show, anyway, like simon hanselmanns stuff is thematically similar IMO, just way more adult and comics instead of cartoons
>i find myself wanting more regular show, and never thinking twice about adventure time.
I think the problem might be partially thanks to the fact that unlike Regular Show Adventure Time lost it's path (a show about a kid and his brother going on fun adventures) and became angsty trash. Regular Show was always like that so such issues didn't really change anything since it was always like that.
Also have you tried Close Enough, it's by the same guy who did regular show and is basically just a slightly more down to earth regular show with 30 year old frick ups instead of 20 year old frick ups.
I havent, i saw a few clips and the only one i found funny was JG's self insert showing a doodle of the characters from regular show and it playing the noise from the OP
AT got worse over time and became incomprehensible to a lot of viewers. Regular Show had some lulls but was pretty consistent throughout and ended a high note.
AT had lower lows and lower highs.
Then fricking prove it!
AT had a better world, better pacing, even better characters, but somehow a worse show. Explain.
Because the most vocal portion of its audience were sexually frustrated man children who wanted to frick vicariously through Finn.
Also scheduling fricked up the release of the final seasons. I blame Cartoon Network and Teen Titans Go for that
One had a showrunner that managed it through the end, one had a showrunner displaced by his own incompetent staff
>obnoxiously cut off as an "ending" for half of your episodes so you don't have to write endings so you can just pull unfinished plot threads out of your ass
>anything you don't touch is just "le mystery" for loregays to mentally jerk off about
>better pacing
cope
It’s funny how zoomers remember RS fondly but don’t really care about AT
Probably because Regular Show had a fairly consistent schedule by CN standards, while Adventure Time was all over the place by Season 5.
Sugar left before that all started too for SU. In fact, she came up with Flame Princess. Muto is the one people were assmad about.
I wouldn't say they don't care about AT, just that when they say "I like AT" they mean they like the first 4ish season
Most of them were probably too young to remember it
Imagine still b***hing about Rebecca Sugar
yes
Imagine still simping for her after it was made abundantly clear she murdered the animation industry
Even ignoring all that, simping for a israeliteess that shamelessly drew gay Ed Edd n Eddy pedo porn isn't really what I would consider a good thing. Especially since she is a big figure in the children's cartoon industry.
