Barely.
They make up for it with this bonus short I guess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDBclCLhU-I
That boy ain’t right
Louise literally twerking...
So gifs of this are going to be all over this board within the next hour I assume.

WHERE ARE THEY?
Already saw it in theaters twice, but you bet your ass I'm gonna watch it a third time.
Fricking phenomenal movie. Gorgeous visuals. Touching story. Surprisingly grim stakes. Kickass songs. I feel the main conflict would hit harder for someone who HASN'T already seen the Wonder Wharf S4 two-part finale, but I'm sure even those who are familiar with it will be shocked to see how this movie upped the ante.
I had doubts that the crew wouldn't deliver due to how lackadaisical the show's been feeling lately, but they fricking did it. This was well worth the wait. Hopefully more people will finally get around to seeing it now that it's more conveniently available. I heard it's even streaming on Disney+ in Australia and New Zealand already.
this is why i couldnt stand the movie
everyone was overanimated and the shadows were distracting
How should it have looked?
it shouldnt have been a movie, it should have been a 3 part tv special
The fact that this movie shouldn't exist is what I like, though.
They already didn't something like that with Wonder Horse and the Bleakening.
It's even worse when the idea of the restaurant being shutdown has been used a few times already.
*did something like that
>Surprisingly grim stakes.
Not really besides the buried alive part, that was intense but the rest of the movie is pretty light-hearted
Awesome, might get high and watch it tomorrow
DUDE
the only thing keeping me from watching the show is that I just know it will make me crave burgers every single episode
Hmm good to know
Might watch tonight
Tried. Too much mumble-core humor. Bunch of adibbed stuff here and there. Had to stop.
I take it you've never watched Bob's Burgers before?
>I take it you've never watched Bob's Burgers before?
Here's the thing. A comedy style that works well in a 20 minute time frame, doesn't always transfer to a almost two hour time frame.
>Watching a Loren movie/show
>Surprised there's adlibbing
You'll hate Home Movies, that show was almost entirely adlibbed to the point where nearly all the cast are credited as writers.
Saw it in theaters but I made sure to watch it today
The Louise parts were good.
Everyone knows the show is Louise's Burgers.
FRESH HOT BURGERS
SEXY BURGERS
you wanna buy a burger!
Any chance of getting webms of the dances at the end?
Thanks!
no prob 🙂
It's funny that the main cast already spends the movie singing and dancing, so the credits is all side characters that didn't get a chance to (discounting Grover)
for sure. And wow, that design is awesome, really mixes both of their chaotic energies into one
Boner NO
Damn, dude's got moves.
sick like a school pedophile
Louise is a lucky kid
Don't you mean she's a lucky duck?
This fricking israeliteess’ voice does vile things to my horny monkey brain.
Cute
>literally the only Linda fan service in the entire 102-minute movie
Wasted potential. Even The Simpsons gave us SOMETHING.
I know, lindabros hardly got anything. I do appreciate the different angles and smooth animation we did get
Those were great, sure. Welcoming any other webm requests
Honestly this hit me harder than the flashback. Even knowing they'll make it out in the end, you still really feel for them in this moment.
Mega?
That part when Bob, Linda, and the kids were fricking buried alive with almost no way out of making it out alive
Of the things I was expecting from this movie, I wasn't expecting that. Holy shit
>Ken never showed up
He got a quick shout-out at least
So Ken is completely imaginary right?
Yes
Can you repeat the question?
No
Maybe.
I don't know.
Can you repeat the question?
can someone update this webm with the new rip of the movie from hbo max the quality on the cam rip was garbage
I got you my g
thank you anon
pic very unrelated
I want to shove my face between Linda’s thighs
The movement is creepy. I feel like they’re going to start singing those St. James Infirmary Blues.
I'll wait until it comes on regular TV
Watched in theaters and don't have Hulu or HBO, should be on Disney+ since the mouse bought them.
Anyways the movie is kino.
Disney puts all the things they deem "too edgy" to be seen with on Hulu in Burgerland.
How that applies to Bob's Burgers and they think The Simpsons in fine is fricking beyond me, but whatever.
And we get to pay double, while everyone outside the USA gets to watch everything under one app. The Hulu player is garbage. Disney+'s is better imo.
Wait you guys don't get the Animation Domination shows on Disney+? Here in the Netherlands, we get everything on that "Star" section. Even shows like Bless the Harts and The Great Norf and I'm pretty sure neither of those have even aired here. You guys are getting grifted.
They put it on Hulu for more content on it's service. It was Fox streaming service but now Disney owns it.
I guess so but it still boggles me how Simpsons gets to be on D+ yet Bob and its movie isn't. This film is a small edit away from a PG.
Tooth is a plot point and how she "finds" it is kinda important.
Doesn't make it any less non-edgy amongst most 'adult animated series'.
Fricking boring
Can someone make a webm of him sprint-crawling through the vent?
That was legit unnerving
>Grover spider-crawling
>The corpse scene
Loren directs a 2D animated horror when?
>the original premise of the show was them selling actual human meat
Wonder how that would have turned out
The corpse scene was great because it just kept getting worse
>it slowly slides out as you try to climb up
>it comes loose
>falls on top of you
>teeth fall in your mouth as you scream
>lighting flashes in the distance
>a slight thunderclap is heard
This and Linda's kegals line were probably the biggest laughs in my theater. There was less than 20 people.
This was so creepy, how the frick did they make this beanpole terrifying
I kinda took this the opposite way that the dweebus is trying to be threatening and if it weren't the crossbow he wouldn't be
The pit scene however...
>who's that knocking on my door? Oh, it's Mr. Dancefloor
Everybody is feeling fancy things are about to get dancy
Dammit why does Jordan Peele sound so sexy as a girl. FRICK.

I love when Bob sings
When I heard the movie would be a musical I was worried since their actual singing voices are kind of grating, but this song instantly pulled me in.
https://mega.nz/folder/jdJ2kICK#4XyMXydeA0KaFqX4YyTC9Q
Here's a mega for the soundtrack by the way, I found this on kickasstorrents ages ago when the movie itself wasn't even on there yet. I'm glad I waited until I actually saw the movie to listen to it.
Frick you now I have to go listen to that song again
why is it so catchy
I want to see Linda's reaction to my decently large wiener
Same.
Cute
Do I need to watch the series to understand this
No, srs.
Just let the Louise run through you.
It's neat that they put Grover in the show at least twice in between the time the script was finished since 2018 and when the film premiered, I liked how an established minor character from the series ended up being the main antagonist of the film instead of being some new guest star
I hope Grover continues to show up in the show. I can easily see Mr. Fischoeder bailing him out of jail because he needed something notarized
>spoiler
Absolutely, that's where shit went south with the Simpsons movie (why didn't they just use Hank Scorpio?) and I kind of expected it to be the same with this. I very much appreciate that they made the Fischoeders heavily involved with the plot, they're the most entertaining secondary characters in the show by far.
Also fricking christ
>that scene where Louise discovers a corpse and lets out that bloodcurdling scream before the teeth fall into her mouth
>that scene where Grover goes full sociopath and nonchalantly tries to bury the family alive
Given how kiddy this show has become in its later years, I really didn't expect that shit. Also frick them for not showing hatless Louise.
They actually wanted the EPA guy to be Hank Scorpio, but his actor pushed back against it since he didn't think Hank would be a dick to Homer.
Albert Brooks is stupid if that’s the only reason. They could’ve made that an element that of the plot that Hank was so nice Homer didn’t even realize he was the villain. Also I thought the reason was Fox didn’t think people would remember Hank.
One aspect I'm fascinated by is how the movie casually juxtaposed the serious nature of a poor carnie's fricking murder with such peppy songs and silly visuals. Those carnies performed a goofy musical number whilst literally fearing for their lives. It's something I feel hasn't been appreciated enough.
Not gonna lie, I'd absolutely forgotten all about him and I was kind of bummed out because I actually thought they just used a new character as the villain, being reminded he'd shown up before elevated the movie for me
I just watched it, it was real nice. You know what wasn't nice? My gay-ass, lying, cheating local theaters saying they were going to show this movie at the beginning of the year and then just going into full radio silence mode afterwards, forcing me to stop coming here for two months just to avoid spoilers. It would've been great to see this on the big screen. Shit looked way better than I thought it would.
Damn.
What country? I heard it didn't release in a lot of markets. The animation was really good and benefited a lot with the large screen.
Netherlands. It is coming to Disney+ tomorrow but I just pirated it, much better quality. I guess they must have thought BB wouldn't have an audience here, even though they used to run it on Comedy Central pretty often. That was years ago though, dunno if they still do that.
I had a bad seat when I watched it in theaters, so I'm glad I get to watch it at home now.
I'm halfway through and haven't laughed once
You laugh at cartoons? Cartoons are to be enjoyed certainly, but I don't remember anything but vintage Simpsons and vintage Sponebob being funny.
Yes? Wtf why would you watch cartoons that aren't funny? This movie is just not funny at all it's not even trying
I don't care about the shadows meme. This movie is fricking gorgeous.
Frick normies
Thoughts on the most important character in the movie?
when's download
https://mega.nz/folder/TMBQWCCb#5CHMPw56Sf2SyAYspeYH7g
Uploading here, currently. Upload speed is very slow today, check back in a while
angels are real and they upload shit on Cinemaphile. thanks mate
Alright it's done. Have fun. I could not find a file with subtitles, hope that's not an issue.
Thank you, Looks so much better. HBO max has godawful video quality.
I’m about 20 minutes from finishing but unfortunately I’d have to say
South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut > Beavis and Butthead Do America > The Simpsons Movie > The Bob’s Burgers Movie
It’s not bad just….ehhhhhh
For me it doesn't match up to Bigger, Longer, and Uncut but I would say it's definitely better than the Simpsons Movie.
I’ll admit I’m a MUCH bigger Simpsons fan so it could definitely be biased but I felt Simpsons felt grandiose enough to be a movie with much better pacing. Though it’s super close between the two.
I knew I was forgetting one more. I’d probably put SpongeBob second behind South Park honestly.
I was just tired of our marraige is on the rocks plot #200 and yes bobs movie was kinda a remake of other episodes it hadn't happened as many times
Its better than Simpsons movie at least
No it is not
Yeah it is.
Swap Burgers and Simpsons and you have yourself a list. Hell, I personally didn't care for the simpsons movie.
Also the 2004 Spongebob movie should be there too, imo.
Grover sexy.
There I said it.
>MFW I wasn't able to whip it out and jerk it in the theater when Grover started dancing and shaking his hot ass because there was a family in the row behind me.
was kinda disappointed with the songs. the one they wrote for the My Butt Has a Fever short that was supposed to be theatrical is much catchier than anything is in this
You're wrong but I'm gonna say this.
>it's all one beat
It made me deliriously happy. I wish we got more big 2D animated movies.
This film is a freak of nature and I love it.
>Movie based on a show that isn't Simpsons/Spongebob level popular
>2D animated
>Survives the Disney/Fox buyout
>Survives Covid and multiple delays. It even got pulled off the schedule completely at one point
>Gets a theatrical release while Pixar gets put on Disney plus
>Film turns out to be really good
Every single person involved with this movie deserves the best head. Except for the marketing team. Frick them.
Tiredbobposter was my main advertisement for this movie, I had stopped watching for a while in like mid season 9, planning to pick it up again at some point. His constant posts about how there were no trailers and such got me thinking about the series again and made me continue watching earlier this year and got me much more hyped for the movie than I initially was when it was first announced. They should buy him one of those really fancy steakhouse burgers or something, fricker's earned it.
Everyone told me to give up and that the movie would never happen, but I knew it was coming. I never forgot, and I'm so glad the wait was worth it.
Louise x Logan
It's the sort of thing that the Simpsons movie should have been. A very Bob's Burgers story told on a grander scale.
>No Jimmy Pesto dialog
Still laughing.
The cut from his smile was super abrupt. Ten bucks says he had a line or something that got cut
He had a song
>Soooooome lucky qucks get all the fricks, some go bareback to break a buck
Weirdest part was that it wasn't in the script. Johnston just started singing it.
Isn't that most Bob's Burgers Dialog?
He wasn't even supposed to be there that day, he dove out the window when the FBI showed up
the bad guy's musical part was fun, there were some good fun bits throughout, and the part with bob's mom made me tear up a little bit. overall better than I was expecting but still just felt like a very long couple episodes glued together
oh other stand out thought while watching was the carnie song was really cringe, both the actual song and seeing a shit ton of one off characters just doing weird shimmy dances just felt gratuitous. was the only part of the movie i considered fast forwarding through
Lucky Ducks is top tier
I guess I should also mention I was on shrooms and the carnies dancing made me uncomfortable and was all I could really focus on, not giving much attention to the actual song lyrics
Why would you watch this movie tripping on shrooms? I was addicted to acid for a while and watched Mulholland Drive on a few hits. It kind of bugged me because I couldn't really see the movie, because the scene was distorting like you'd expect... Like watching the movie through water.
And the scary scenes became normal, while normal scenes seemed disturbing.
I felt it kinda ruined the film.
mushrooms aren't acid and i'm no baby back b***h. the dose I took just made me giggly and really into the last song/climax of the movie. Mushrooms go with cartoons as well as weed does
I think Lucky Ducks did a good job setting up that the Fischoeders are barely victims in all this. They're buttholes who have never had a moment's worry in their entire lives and are so unaccustomed to fear that they spend their last minutes gambling on a silly slap game.
It keeps the conflict centered on the family and the restaurant. The only reason Calvin is important is because the Belchers are kinda at his mercy and the two lining up to replace him are worse.
If you've watched the show that should be obvious. Fischoeder barely comprehends human empathy and fear is only a vague concept to him
Lucky ducks has the best lyrics and lines though
the only song i liked.
the quality of louise's singing is a bit shaky but a couple of lines just hit my ears just right
It was fun. I like that it prominently featured Wonder Wharf because that's the best part of the setting. A lot of the side characters got shafted and hell, even the family don't really do much as Louise eats up the whole movie and Bob sort of does a thing at the end. Maybe they could've fleshed it out more because Bob perfectly sums up their dynamic at the end and it's just as boring as it sounds. But I don't blame them - Louise is the breakout character of the show and this is more of a laidback fun movie than a big character drama movie (though Tina's pretty melodramatic the whole way through.) I liked the clam scene as a resolution to Louise's arc better than having to prove herself by performing a crazy wharf-saving stunt since that kind of defeats the purpose IMO but again, that's just me. I also wish Bob and Linda were more proactive about saving the restaurant - much like the show the movie likes focusing on the kids more and Louise basically has to save the restaurant for them. The villain is fine though the pacing drags after the reveal. Calvin and Felix are great as always. Also for how song-centric the show is they really should've written more/better songs. I only remember Sunny Side Up Summer.
Overall I give it a B-.
I ripped the Blu-ray extras. All the ones that have commentary should have it if you switch to audio track 2
https://mega.nz/folder/uaAC2CqT#v3chxWH4_6wzriFmDniU0Q
Whoa, thanks for going out of your way to do that.
I really appreciate Loren Bouchard putting together such a thorough behind-the-scenes mini-documentary. I love the film we got in the end and I'm happy with how focused the story remained, but man did we miss out on tons more cameos and easter eggs for fans.
Oh, and it seems like 'Johnny Jazz Hands' was the film's secretive working title during production. That's kind of a funny detail.
I was goddamn delighted when little king trashmouth got an appearance and namedrop

Damn. I thought it was rigged. Maybe it is for some shots.

MY BURGER BUNS ARE SHAKING FOR YOOOUUUU
So we're all in agreement that this is basically the series finale right?
As close as it'll ever be for the foreseeable future. Bob's Burgers has joined the ranks among other long-running animated sitcoms—South Park included—to the point where I really can't imagine how they'd properly close out the show for good.
I always imagined it ending with the restaurant becoming successful and the Belchers moving to start franchising it or something
I think that's kinda antithetical to the series. Bob did become successful when his rich friend stepped in, but he would rather do his burger vision than make money. And Bob's richness is not monetary but his loving family.
I think it ends with Louise taking over as she said she would, and continuing her dad's vision. Plus some little moneymaking schemes added in, naturally.
>I think that's kinda antithetical to the series
That kind of mindset is exactly why Bob's Burgers has stagnate.
hot spring episode
No because there's already been orders for the 15th season.
Source?
>https://deadline.com/2020/09/family-guy-bobs-burgers-renewed-two-season-fox-seasons-19-20-12-13-1234582825/
Check date.
Check your reasoning. If Bob's Burgers is getting a 14th season then it stands to follow that the movie wasn't the series finale.
The article is a renewal for 12 and 13. 13 is coming in September. Might not be a 14 and 15.
But still if Bob's burgers is getting another sason after the movie then the movie wasn't the series finale.
Right but you got me excited there was gonna be a 14 and 15.
Because there is.
Would it really be that bad if Bob's Burgers ended with its next season? You've seen what happens to FOX shows that go on for too long.
Bob's burgers has already gone on far too long.
Chronologically I wouldn't argue against it, although it would be fun for the opening of the next season to reference the grand re-re-re-re-opening after the hole.
Hey speaking of chronology, is this movie going to mark the end of the outlandishly boring Tina-Jimmy Jr. will-they-won't-they homosexualry or is it just going to continue like nothing happened, as it always does?
>or is it just going to continue like nothing happened, as it always does?
I think you already know that answer.
Man, people in these threads often talk about how a little timeskip couldn't hurt and I have to agree. A change in status quo could really spice up the show just a tiny bit so we could get new plots that aren't the same, endless rehashes of
>Tina like boy
>Gene does something fricking stupid
>Louise does mean thing but then feels bad about it and does good thing
It's more balanced than in the average new episode, but I'd still say it's around 60% kids, 40% Bob and Linda (and Teddy)
>Boy likes Tina?
Let's assume Bob's Burgers did a timeskip. How long would you want it to be? How would the status quo be changed up?
Nothing too drastic, really - I just want to see the kids in a different setting with different mindsets where they have to deal with different problems than they usually do. So let's say 3, maybe 4 years, so Tina will maybe have graduated high school and is now working full-time at the restaurant wondering what to do with her life, maybe Gene is in high school and worries about not having enough time to explore his passion for music anymore as he gets older, maybe Louise could deal with getting older and "hormonal", basically all the stuff she mocked Tina for, and struggling with the changes.
These ideas aren't revolutionary or anything, took me a minute to come up with and they're not well thought out at all, but I think there's definitely some stuff in potential future scenarios that's worth exploring for a final season or something. I'll take anything over these samey plots where you can guess the outcome from the first 5 lines of dialogue.
And show hatless Louise, you fricking bastards.
Even aging them up one year would be enough for me. Tina going to high school, Louise turning the big 1-0 and Gene getting into band or drama would be all that we need.
>Gene getting into band or drama
Honestly don't know why they haven't done anything like this yet, Gene in particular is in desperate need of anything good to define his character. I think that recent episode where he was reluctant to do Courtney's music video because he hated everything about it and it challenged his artistic integrity was the best Gene episode in years. Of course it helps that he was so low-energy the whole episode that he wasn't screaming his lines throughout the whole thing, kind of a nice flashback to season 1 Gene.
Gene is an interesting character to me because when he's NOT the focus, he's unbearable. When he IS the focus, he's kino. The roller rink episode, the musical episode, and the music video one.
3 years
Louise is 12, Gene is 14, Tina is 17
Jimmy Pesto and his family get properly written out (since we’re never seeing Sr again anyway), there’s a new place across the street and the neighborhood as a whole has become even more hip and gentrified.
Bob’s restaurant was featured on a food channel show and is attracting more customers, but he’s having as much trouble in keeping momentum and running the place without additional employees (despite his efforts to hire) as he was when struggling to keep the lights on.
A lot of the focus is on Tina’s coming of age and her getting into more adult situations and clashing with Bob over her responsibilities and direction.
Gene has lost weight and is very hormonal. He lacks confidence but is getting attention and facing a lot more interpersonal relationship issues at school. His new garage band (Zeke on drums of course) is a lot more serious than prior musical projects and he’s trying to balance that ambition with everything else.
Louise is similarly full of (pre)teen angst but now feels left behind as “still a kid” among a family of teenagers. When she’s not out scheming with kids her age she’s more consistently a team with Bob, who have to clean up the messes of the other two. Everyone drifting apart but still loving each other is a big through-line.
Also, Gayle and Teddy are married. Linda has feelings about this.
>Gayle and Teddy
Nah, Gayle and Frond. Teddy should marry that cute theater lady. Gayle marrying Frond gives an excuse for Frond to still be in the show despite the kids aging out of Wagstaff
Tina is 14 in the show now (the only character that’s aged, weirdly) but they haven’t moved her on, at least as far as I’ve noticed.
I just think really funny things could result from Teddy being legally related to the Belchers
I dunno, Teddy is already a Belcher in everything but name, I don't see how making it legal would change much.
I'm getting mixed messages. When did Tina turn 14?
I'm neither of those anons but maybe anon 1 is referring to the latest episode (2 part season finale) where Tina's birthday is mentioned to be coming up. The episodes never actually make it there though, so it may as well have never happened.
Tina canonically aged from 12 to 13 back in Season 1, and the latest season finale was another birthday episode for her. Since this show has used birthday plots pretty sparingly for the Belchers its entire run, fans went ahead and assumed that Tina is canonically 14 now, but there's still a 50/50 chance nothing's really changed and that the show is keeping to its sliding timeline. I wanna hear it from Bouchard himself if Tina's officially 14 now.
>. I wanna hear it from Bouchard himself if Tina's officially 14 now.
I'm sure they'll make her that, but Tina has been 13 for most of the show so for the movie info they just say she's 13
Frond already cheated on Gayle
Mind if I add on to this Anon?
>Pesto Sr. is gone, what happened is mostly unaddressed, but his ex-wife has the kids now.
>Tina is over JPJ. Ironically, now this results in HIM chasing HER.
>Instead, Tina is in a committed relationship with Zeke.
>Zeke starts out seeing the band as a way to just get in good with T's family, but genuinely gets into it as it goes on.
I still prefer Gayle and Frond being married over Gayle and Teddy. Especially if Frond still slips into counsel-mode with the kids despite trading his ignored school authority for ignored familial authority.
I would love if Mort somehow got more involved with the family, but I'm not sure how. Maybe Teddy's apartment burnt down and now he's roomies with Mort in an odd couple situation?
>Jimmy Pesto and his family get properly written out
wasn't this proposed? i swear to frick i saw promotional material for it a while back.
That was fan art, my dude.
>How long would you want it to be?
Long enough for Louise to experience puberty.
I proposed this idea forever ago but I would like it if they made 1 year timeskip every season in an effort to change the show into a more exciting place. Either the show goes on forever and it becomes a completely different series 5 seasons from now, or it gets cancelled and goes out in a blaze of glory.
Personally I would just like to see Tina getting her shit together and both Gene and Louise dealing with older feelings, I feel they both could benefit a lot from it. Especially Gene, poor boy has to grow.
That sounds fine too. It's getting a little awkward that Louise has been through more Halloweens at this point than the amount of years she's been alive.
True. They're reluctant because it would break up the trio of Belcher kids at Wagstaff. But for certain it would be like an adrenaline shot into the show, as Tina would be in high school.
Louise would probably find a way to sneak in there anyway.
There's lots of potential.
Word of God I think is that seasonal episodes aren't canon, except for Bob Actually (says Bouchard).
And yet Louise references Dawn of the Peck in I Bob Your Pardon.
Yes but that's her referencing a seasonal episode inside of a season episode.
Also another good example of Louise being incredibly brave.
>Word of God I think is that seasonal episodes aren't canon, except for Bob Actually (says Bouchard).
What a specific episode to make canon
Well you to got to establish Chloe Barbash beforehand or else the whole movie falls apart!
It's because the Rudy/Louise kiss specifically.
But they are canon. That's how they know Bryce from kingshead island during the go kart episode
Ah but Bryce didn't remember them.
they were in costumes
Telling Gene he left no impression is probably the worse thing you could do to him.
correct
Fun fact: if you go to the wikipedia page for this episode you'll see this sexy pic of Stephanie Beatriz.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Actually
This is still the sexiest pic of her in my eyes.
>those glasses
BAWBY
She could probably pull it off, b***h got range.
I first saw her on Brooklyn 99 and I was fricking shocked when I found out what her "real voice" sounded like. I don't know why it keeps surprising me that actors can act.
A time skip isn't needed just age the kids naturally over time. That's what King of the Hill did with Bobby. At the beggining he was 11 years old by the end of the show he was 13.
30 years. Restaurant failed, Bob killed himself like he said he would. Whole thing is just a depressing, grim meditation on middle age with the kids and Linda mourning
Movie plays like it was written by an AI that complied the average plot of every BB script into one.
>restaurant in trouble
>Finshoeder scandal/scheme
>Tina like Jimmy
>Gene music moron
>Louise insecure
>Bob stuck in B-Plot with Linda and Teddy while kids hog screen time
>Story takes place 2 blocks from the restaurant & warf
For all the excitement I had for this movie, it wound up being largely skippable save for one song. At least for all the Simpsons Movie’s rehashing of ideas they bothered to create a climax worthy of a feature film.
It does feel like the movie was designed to be as accessible as possible to newcomers not familiar with the show. South Park did something similar, their film basically rehashed the plot of a s1 episode.
This.
I don't even watch the series regularly (have maybe seen 10 episodes) but I'm in love with this movie.
True but they expanded on the concept and created higher stakes, and also created lasting changes for certain characters. Sheila stopped being an angry busy body after that, her antagonistic dynamic with Kyle was retired. Meanwhile all the promise of growth in the BB cast is denied to us. Tina still holds a candle for Jimmy Jr, Gene still has delusions of grandeur, and the restaurant is still just scraping by. Louise did have growth by no longer being afraid of losing her hat, but they blue balled us and didn’t show it so it may as well not be a status quo change at all.
Louise's arc is now like a circle.
>Louise did have growth by no longer being afraid of losing her hat, but they blue balled us and didn’t show it so it may as well not be a status quo change at all.
What the frick was up with that anyway? Feels like the entire movie was setting up for a "hoodless Kenny" moment but they off-screened it at the last minute, what a shame man. It's a bit ironic that Louise herself grew past needing her hat as a safety blanket, but the crew is still afraid to show her without it.
God I hope this actually happens at some point. Jimmy himself is axed because his VA had a January 6th moment, Andy and Ollie aren't that funny and Jimmy Jr. has bogged down every Tina plot since they kissed in the first season and it became clear that nothing was ever going to come from it. Bob getting new competition across the street would be a welcome status quo change for me.
This is what Nora Smith said about it.
>To me, it is always going to be more exciting for people to imagine what's under there than to actually see it. If you actually see it, the fun is gone. It’s better what’s in your head.
Which to me sounds like a whole bunch of bullshit. It's not the briefcase from Pulp Fiction, there's no mystery to be teased here.
Well frick, I guess we're never going to see it then, are we.
Maybe if more new blood come into the writing room and make the convincing argument that they should.
Why do people obsess over Louise's hat? There. She looks like every other character because they all look the fricking same.
Same as people obsessing over what Bob's mom looks like. I don't know, maybe like everyone else?
Even in the thumbnail I can see that's just Linda's hair shooped over Louise's head, that's not fun at all
It's not about what she looks like but what the story called for. Like
said, the arc in the movie is about how she doesn't need the hat to be Louise and not showing her without the hat leaves the arc practically unfinished.
She has ponytails, it wouldn’t look exactly like that
>Jimmy himself is axed because his VA had a January 6th moment
wait wait what the frick happened?
Exactly what I said. Jimmy Pesto's voice actor, Jay Johnston, was seen in a photograph of the capitol hill riots and fired from his role. They're either going to have to recast him, or abandon the character altogether. He already had no speaking roles in the movie, who knows if he originally had any that got cut from the final version.
>villain in show become villain in real life
we need more of this
On the moral Orel dvd Jay Johnston was the only one with the balls to give the producer shit for sabotaging the show by airing the season finale as the first episode.
It really felt like the latter, especially when Teddy is in his restaurant
That would have to be awkward getting rid of Pesto. Can't really make Bob's rival disappear without also getting rid of Jimmy Jr, Ollie, and Andy. Their mom likely won't be added.
They already messed up Mickey's voice too.
>movie about a show has elements from the show
Wow what a twist sherlock. Also nobody remembers the simpsons movie, don’t talk shit
Simpsons movie had elements of the show too, plus a higher stakes scenario to justify being a movie. Bobs Burgers is a fundamentally better movie, but it has nothing unique to offer the brand.
anybody got a mega for the movie?
ctrl+F, my friend
my bad friend
didn't see the earlier one, only saw the mega for the extras
thanks
I refuse to watch it because I will not stand for any more of Bouchard butchering musical theater.
Making people with no vocal talent sing sappy half-raps with lyrics that sound like a first pass by a thirteen year old stops being charming after five minutes and he's been doing it for fricking years.
I'm surpised we haven't gotten more fanart.
Or fanfic. Not even sexual, just Louise and Mabel hangin' out. Mabel would show Louise all the cool stuff at the shack and tell her about her fighting monsters etc. Louise would come up with cool adventures and schemes to go on with Mabel.
i drew this like 2 years ago (christ) for the tag team tournament
Adorabs
My biggest criticism is the lack of connective tissue between everything.
The sink hole in front of the restuarant doesn't have anything to do with Tina's romantic problems or Gene's insecurity or Louise's bullying problem. Even if the whole idea is that Louise is looking to solve the murder to prove she's not a baby, it doesn't actually connect to Louise's problem.
Gene and Tina's problems barely matter to anything. It would've been better if they were just supporting characters
They basically were.
This.
The movie could have EASILY shaved a half hour off the run time by dropping the Gene, Tina and bank subplots. The Fischoder murder mystery plot was fun but really it just kind of felt like they really needed to force stuff for the other characters to do.
>Gene's insecurity
Speaking of Gene, I am so glad that they only paid attention to his insecurity thing at the start and at the end of the movie because having a Gene B-plot to add to the Louise B-plot and (much smaller) Tina B-plot would have really dragged this movie down. The kid is just downright obnoxious nowadays and it was a relief to see that he didn't have that much focus in this movie.
I was worried because the writers often seem to think he's the funniest shit ever conceived. You really start to notice when you pay attention to how many times he gets the last joke line before commercial breaks/end credits, and how many times he has no role in episodes other than to butt (HAHA GET IT DUDE) into a conversation, not to contribute but only to spout some dirty non-sequiturs or say "that's what I call [X]'s butt/farts haha lol!"
>Crime Hole!
Louise’s arc is the impetus for finding the corpse. Thematically it’s pretty weak though. You could argue the main characters for a lot of movies are exceptionally brave.
her arc shouldn't even have been about if she's brave in the face of physical danger because that's not what Chloe Barbash meant when she called Louise a baby.
Louise's arc doesn't make nearly as much sense for her character as it would for a real kid her age. But I feel like when she decided she needed to solve the murder in order to save the restaurant, we were getting back to Classic Louise. It's just too bad they had to pepper it with Baby Louise the whole time.
Detective Louise is the theme of her stories in the comics (they're called something similar to Louise's Unsolved Mysteries or some shit).
What? It totally fits. The girl is growing but part of her identity is wearing kiddy bunny ears that nobody else her age wears. Those ears clearly matter to her but she’s mature enough to be self conscious about it. It totally fits for Louise since the show never really went into the bunny ears thing besides the time Logan stole them (which was forever ago) so obviously they would eventually have to reach this point. The whole shtick with Louise is she’s a tough kid that looks like an innocent sweet girl from a distance, so Chloe calling her a baby for her ears makes perfect sense for the character.
Louise being insecure about her ears I can agree with, but being afraid to climb down into the sinkhole or open the secret passageway seems at odds with the little girl who dragged her siblings into an abandoned taffy factory, tried to hunt down a demonic creature that steals Christmas presents, and is (nearly) impossible to scare at haunted houses.
She got freaked when she fell down the pit in that taffy ep. Btw I hate that ep, and the talking toilet one. Who said only the first seasons are good?
>hating Taffy Butt
cringe
Honestly it might just be because of the treasure they miss out on. It reaaaally gets to me that they don't get the treasure lol.
If missing out on something great is enough to make you hate an episode why even watch the series? Like 80% of episodes are Bob missing out on/having to sacrifice a really nice thing he was excited about.
Most of the time there's a happy ending regardless of them losing out on something. I felt he was vindicated on the Fracas ep, even though they didn't get the van (and I love that song btw).
The treasure felt a bridge too far. I don't know. Just annoys me.
She freaked out but she wasn't afraid if that makes sense.
Her reaction was roughly the same I think. I mean this was an actual real corpse that fell on her...
Felix and Franny got redeemed for their attempted murder.
And god knows what critter has done...
Meant for
You're right about Fanny, but Felix felt awful about what he did the second he started doing it and later went back to try to fix shit. After that, Bob still had to be bribed by Calvin with free rent so he wouldn't go to the police and report that Felix tried to kill them both.
Grover, on the other hand, felt absolutely zero remorse about killing an innocent carnival worker to frame his family member for murder, orchestrating the deaths of said family member and his brother, and then also try to bury an entire innocent family including 3 young children alive for knowing his secret. When casually shoving dirt into the hole, the sociopath only looks worried about getting seen by the crowd at Pesto's, but isn't even slightly concerned about the 5 people he's killing.
I gotta hand it to the writers, I didn't think this random guy would end up being the most despicable Fischoeder and also arguably the most immoral character in the series, or that Bob's Burgers would even have a character like this.
Adding to that, I will say that this
would be extremely funny and completely in-character. Fischoeders just not giving a shit about death or murder is very in-character.
Listened to Not That Evil today. It's a bit amazing how they managed to make someone worse than Calvin and Felix by ramoing up the grievance and bitterness.
I'd go so far as to say Grover is the most irredeemable monster in the entire history of the series.
She was only in the sinkhole because she fell in. She was too afraid to even climb the rope down.
In the taffy factory, which she willingly went into knowing it was extremely dangerous, she only got freaked out because she was trapped.
Come on anon, that was Season 2 Louise. Get with the program.
Where does the Louise switch really come in for you guys? I say it's the Nice-capades.
Nice-capades? More like Nonce-capades.
Even in those situations she was a bit freaked out, she’s still just a kid
Chloe calling her a baby just pushes the insecurities she already had so she goes to prove something. I don’t think it outshines the main theme of her being insecure about her ears.
>Chloe calling her a baby just pushes the insecurities she already had so she goes to prove something
Yeah but my point is that what she's trying to prove isn't the thing she's insecure about. The root of the problem isn't that she's a baby because she's afraid of physical danger, she's a baby because the hat is a just a defensive barrier meant to keep people away from the fact of how emotional vulnerable she really is.
Like obviously.
>The root of the problem isn't that she's a baby because she's afraid of physical danger, she's a baby because the hat is a just a defensive barrier meant to keep people away from the fact of how emotional vulnerable she really is.
She's a kid, do you think she can tell the difference? In her mind proving she's not afraid of danger will prove she's not a baby at all.
She was younger then, this is Louise after 12 seasons and starts to realize how kiddy they are. When you are a kid you don't think your toys are dorky but you eventually reach an age where you think they are.
Now granted due to episodic nature Louise doesn't actually age, but she has clearly matured through the years the show has been on.
>Now granted due to episodic nature Louise doesn't actually age, but she has clearly matured through the years the show has been on.
That's trying to have your cake and eat it too. Louise doesn'thave character development, you can't tell me the episodes where her character develops because she's eternallystuck in the present. Writing a softer Louise does not equal a developed Louise.
>She's a kid, do you think she can tell the difference? In her mind proving she's not afraid of danger will prove she's not a baby at all.
And the movie doesn't push back on this childish notion at all which is problem.
Do you simply not get what I'm pointing out here or something? Her saving the day and proving she's brave has nothing to do with the hat. The emotional core pf Louise's hat is still untouched.
Is it really character development when the character becomes less interesting?
I think "Ear-sy Rider" shows what the Ears really mean to Louise and it's not Bravery, she didn't break down crying when they got stolen.
Not what I meant but notice how Louise isn't afraid of going after a physically bigger person?
Because Logan is a pussy.
That parts fits, what didn't fit is how the movie interpret that as Louise needs to prove she's not a chicken. Like Chloe Barbash didn't call Louise a baby because she was afraid of physical danger so why is the storyline about Louise trying to prove she's brave in the face of physical danger? Being brave in the face of physical danger doesn't actually address the issue of Louise being self-conscious about her ears emotionally holding her back.
Every season of Bob's Burgers treats it's last episode as a season finale since they never know how much time they have.
On the fence about watching this, is it 95% Belcher kids, and 5% Bob n Linda like the shows become...?
I skip a lot of episodes lately cuz I'm just frickin tired of the title character/restaurant getting sidelined to focus on the kids.
They used to be funny, but the new writers just suck compared to the dry humor the original team brought to the table...
>new writers
They've had the same writers all this time, anon. Season 12 introduced the first new hire in about a decade, and that was likely only because The Molyneux Sisters left to make The Great North and Kelvin Yu left to showrun Central Park, meaning they'd have to fill up some spots.
Otherwise, it's become an echo chamber for the most part. Seems the writers have all gotten too comfortable writing increasingly safe, lackluster jokes and somehow still believe they're making the same show that earned them critical acclaim all those years back. It's the exact opposite problem Rick and Morty has; that show's writers' room is almost entirely staffed with new faces who can only get so close to capturing the early seasons' magic since there's no clear or consistent identity to aim for anymore. They also keep trying to one-up themselves with how shocking or over-the-top they can get, which leaves the series ranging from Emmy-winning marvels to episodes actively reviled by viewers.
Keeping a writers' room consistent for this long may be impressive, but you still have to allow yourselves to pull up a mirror every now and then and really ask yourselves if the show you're making now even holds a candle to what's considered "the peak seasons." I wish Loren Bouchard would realize his show's been dropping in popularity since ~2015, but I fear that the love for the movie along with the nonstop yearly Emmy nominations will convince him there's nothing to fix.
I really need to draw more Paige.
She really is cute.
Ooh please do!
I went to see it in the theatre on a whim as I had not much else to do, plus I like to support 2D animation where I can (sadly I was alone in the cinema). I have never seen the show before so I had zero expectations going in.
It's not the funniest film ever but it made me chuckle, the characters were all likable and despite having zero familiarity with the show I could understand who they were and where they were coming from without difficulty. Pretty comfy movie overall, only real complaint I had was that I feel that if you're going to have songs in a movie you should have a good singing voice for it, I guess that was part of the comedy but I felt that should come from the lyrics of the song rather than how it is performed, though the song in the end credits was pretty catchy.
After i watched one of the episodes that pissed me off the most out of this show, this movie was the biggest palate cleanser ever, like, yeah, 8t's just the two parter where Baby Fischoder tries to do the same as Cousin Fischoeder, but it's what i'd expect from the Bob's Burgers Movie, and it was really great.
All the songs were great, but my list is:
1.- Intro
2.- Carney's
3.- Ending
4.- Villain song
Who asked for this?: the movie
>who asked for this?
We did? Bob's Burgers isn't some long ago forgotten show, it's a show that's been currently airing for 10 years now
I did.
That's lightyear.
>Bluray has actual extras including animation time lapses
Most based film of 2022.
Someone better rip those suckers
Someone already posted a mega with the bluray extras in the thread
Just a bigger episode of the tv show. Which already has several multi part episodes to begin with.
Honestly don't know why they even bothered with it. Nothing was consequential revelatory shocking fun or well written, it was just the same inane rambling nonsense the show is known for, just with a slightly heightened budget.
Very forgettable sadly. 5/10 for me.
Is tiredbobposter here? What did he think of the movie?
I've always been around. Feels surreal to see this huge project so many believed to be scrapped not only made it out alive, but was a good fricking movie. I loved it. There were stakes, there were solid jokes, the visuals were better than I could've imagined, I still listen to the soundtrack over a month later, and while the film wasn't as massive in scale as, say, Beavis and Butt-Head's or The Simpsons', the story still felt movie-worthy for this franchise. That final act had me on the edge of my seat, and the backstory reveal for the bunny ears was legit beautiful, not only for its narrative context but also for the way the filmmakers executed it; I'm talkin' writers, artists, composers, EVERYONE. They all brought their A-game in making that sequence work, as well as the film as a whole.
They should all be proud.
Good to hear man. And yeah I also really liked the Louise hat backstory, I never expected it to be more meaningful than "just a silly hat". Movie was way better than I thought it was going to be, especially in the visual department. They've already done some nice backgrounds recently in the show, like the episode where they go up a mountain to take a family photo or the Tina Blade Runner episodes. I'm glad they took advantage of their movie budget here.
Watching it now! Seems cute and promising so far
>Lowest hanging gown in existence
>Still no fricking cleavage
Why is this world the way it is...
It's super unnecessary self-censorship, but you learn to live with it. We can always imagine in our minds how their chests would actually look in more revealing attire. And there's always fan art I guess.
>But you learn to live with it
The hell I will
Not bad.
Every time they hit their cleavage quota, we have to wait another three seasons to get the next case of cleavage. Be patient.
Love how Teddy still refers to him as "Bob Burger"
Finally, immortalized forever.
Just finished it! It was fun and I liked it, agree with the consensus that it's basically a long episode. It got a few chuckles out of me, I enjoyed Louise's arc and the third act was genuinely exciting. I streamed it on HBOmax and don't know if I would have paid theater prices for it, but it was better than I expected it to be and I'm glad I watched it.
I totally forgot about it until I saw it on the front page of my Xbox.
I'll eventually get around to watching it.
It was really nice to see a 2D movie for the first time in years.
>no Louise pantyshot
I feel cheated.
Missed it in theaters, but watched it last night, really fun, comfy movie. I'd say it's a lot better than the Simpsons movie, it's much better paced and more consistent (the fact that the Simpsons had like 30 writers and underwent tons and tons of revisions really shows). Didn't really have a ton of big laughs, but it was funny throughout. I'm glad it was a Louise story, though I share the frustration that they didn't show her without the hat. That's what a movie is for!! The flashback with Bob's mom made me tear up, though, as someone who lost his mom a few years ago. Also the stakes were higher than usual; I wasn't expecting the mystery to be a for-real murder, and the part where they're getting buried alive was legit harrowing.
Favorite parts:
>Teddy calling the cart "Bob Burgers"
>Little King Trashmouth appearance
>Calvin casually singing "fleeing the country, fleeing the country..." while he packed
>Calvin
oops, I mean Felix
Watched it a few hours ago. I think it was tamer than the Rugrats Movie.
will we ever see guy in prison for murder he could join the one eyed snakes in a future episode if he lawyers his way out somehow.
I dunno if he'll be redeemed like that, feels like something the Fischoeders would accept but not really anyone else
Franky and felix tried to murder them too. And they ate fine with felix.
I didn't think "weird school kid feels bad about being weird in school" plots could still make me feel something but these episodes were pretty damn good.
This is what Louise should've done to prove to Chloe Barbash that she's not a baby.
Legit.
Then it turns out Chloe Barbash also makes tiktok kino and they do a collab and become best friends.
>late night streaming with Chloe and Louise in their swimsuits
>them doing cute and funny dances
>teasing glimpses of tush
Then Millie joins in and that when it really get lewd...
If I had to rank them in terms of cuteness it would Louise > Chloe > Millie > Harley > Kaylee > Jodi > Abby > Jessica.
Millie? Da frick son.
There's some pieces on Paheal that convinced me that actually Millie is cute.
Dick in crazy?
Never.
I just finished it and didn't laugh once
And?
Must suck to have no taste.
Sucked. The songs sounded the same, the villain was literally the first new character that showed up, and only one funny joke. Also Gene's song that was hyped from the first act was underwhelming. Sticking to the family was fine but Bob and Linda's subplot wasn't funny at all.
>The songs sounded the same
Yeah but it was a catchy song.
>the villain was literally the first new character that showed up
Not to be pedantic but Grover wasn't technically a new character.
>Also Gene's song that was hyped from the first act was underwhelming
>expecting Gene to deliver
Also was it hyped?
>the first new character that showed up
Do you watch the show, anon? Honest question
I hate posts like these. Way to condescend to someone for not watching every episode of a 12-season show and remembering every minor character.
I'm not trying to condescend to anyone man, he is just literally not a new character. But to be fair, he didn't really say or do anything notable in his few appearances, so I suppose I shouldn't blame people for not knowing him.
And I suppose that's just what he wants that sneaky fricker
I've watched every episode several times and didn't recognize him. It's not a very memorable character.
>Also Gene's song that was hyped from the first act was underwhelming
Burger buns was a fricking jam.
the scene where they are stuck in the sinkhole in the burgermobile was incredibly suspenseful and emotional. I only watch animated movies though, so I'm not sure how it measures up to other cinema. Still a really good scene.
some Lucky Duck is going to enjoy it.
>laughing at their murderer because he tripped and dropped his glasses
I love these fricking idiots so much
it would have been out of character if they didn't giggle, or at least if Calvin didn't giggle.
Watching this movie made me realize Jon Benjamin has more range than he lets on. I think he voiced like 5 people in this.
Watched it last night while putting my toddler to bed. I would of rather watched toddler shows. I liked the early seasons but haven't watched any new ones for at least 2 years now. This could of easily been a tv episode or two instead. The songs weren't great and 3 different times I went ":how much longer is this" to only see I had 20+ minutes left.
Also some of the dance moves from the ending credits are stolen from an anime that stole from a dancer 2+ years ago.
it was very reminiscent of the early muppet movies, mostly because of the tone and plot. the last act probably made it feel the most cinematic
Also because the characters are basically human muppets. Loren flat out wanted them to be design wise.
that’s true, i guess the musical numbers make more sense now
"Some Like It bot Part 1: Eighth Grade Runner" just got the show nominated for another Emmy. How we feelin', Burgerbros?
Good to hear they nominated a good episode this time. That 2-parter was really good.
seriously, I don't know WHY the worm episode of all things was nominated last time, it was easily the worst episode of the season.
The scat fetishists on the writing team must have a lot of connections.
Talk about misplaced confidence.
I bet they thought a worm orchestra was absolutely gonna kill.
What's even worse is that it was nominated over the following episode, Copa Bob-bana which was probably one of the best in the season. I have no idea what influences these people's decisions but it can't be healthy.
I only remember the song but I guess the work they put into the Blade Runner parody was worthy of a mention
Good episode, but it's losing to either Arcane or Rick and Morty.
Fricking frick, Rick and Morty is the only show that I've genuinely felt was ruined by the fanbase... Let Bob win something for once in his life.
Not the fanbase, the writing.
This movie has yet to release in theaters over here, but is already on Disney+. What kind of business model is that? Is it worth watching in a theater and waiting a week or should I just watch it at home now?
>people is watching
I hate when artists who are this abysmal at English don't get their dialogue proofread.
He's actually talking about Jim People, the neighborhood voyeur.
That honestly sounds like a character that could show up on the show.
Word on the street is that he's also a bread perv.
Is that you sick fricks get off to?
This makes me like the pairing more. Cute loving couples rock.
Watched it last night. I'm not really into the show, but the film was pretty nice.
Sunny Side Up Summer is going to stay in my head for a while, isn't it.
Looks like she's about to stab him.
Or is witholding his inhaler and laughing at him for it.
So Mickey's never gonna sound like himself again, is he?
I don't know anon...I just don't know.
Darryl didn't sound right either despite still being voiced by Aziz Ansari.
>Darryl didn't sound right either despite still being voiced by Aziz Ansari.
Aziz has never been the same since that chick tried to Metoo him for an awkward date.
Truly is a master of none now.
Did ANYONE watch "Season 3"?
You know who does a great Bill Hader impersonation, and I'm not even kidding about, but Benedict Cumberbatch. Watch him in the new grinch and tell me he doesn't sound like Bill Hader.
Honestly I remember thinking they should’ve just gone with Bill if they didn’t want Benedict so sound British, but you know illumination is all about whose name looks better on the poster.
>you know illumination is all about whose name looks better on the poster.
Say what!?!?
I wonder how it feels for voice actors who have spent almost their entire careers in the business and are among the most popular in their field, but will still never ever get a lead role in an animated film. And when they do, like the Space Jam sequel, their names are left out because only celebrities are important.
Hey speaking of which, pretty fricking sweet that they didn't waste time or budget on celebrity guest stars in this movie.
Didn't need to. The goal was simply to attract fans of the show or anyone with a fleeting interest in seeing a 2D-animated film on the big screen, and the movie did just that.
You can pretty much blame Robin Williams, unfortunately. It was pretty rare until he got cast as the genie in Aladdin. Shame that such a great performance paved the way for decades of soulless cash-grab casting decisions after that.
Didn't he himself also hate being used as advertisement for the movie though? I'm trying to recall a story about how he got pissed about how his voice was used for a Genie toy or something, do you know what I'm talking about?
Yeah, I do recall hearing something to that effect. I don't remember the particulars but yeah I think he wasn't happy about how it was marketed or something like that.
Sunny Side Up Summer is great. Surprised there wasn't more music numbers, thought they would've gone full musical on this. I'm assuming the Coof(tm) got in the way
Yeah I was expecting a full blown musical too. In fact I figured the movie was gonna take advantage of having cast members who can actually sing like Kevin Kline, Stephabie Beatriz, Zach Galifianakis to pick up the slack by having songs for their characters.
And I thought that's what they were doing because of this poster.
>man these are some random ass characters showing up on the movie
>wait that little redhead girl is being voiced by Stephanie Beatriz aka Mirabel from Encanto
>oh I see, these random ass characters are actually gonna be voiced by talented vocalists because why else would they be there?
>nice, this is gonna be a full blown musical
And I definitely thought that Dog mascot was gonna be Lin Manuel Miranda .
Why is it on HBO Max if it's Disney owned?
Because Disney still sees a cut of that.
Pre-existing contracts that Fox made with HBO pre-buyout that’s still active until the end of the year
Does anybody have a screenshot of The Little King Trashmouth? His interactions with Teddy were the highlight of the film for me.
>mfw GOOOOOOO BURGER PEOPLEEEE
Loved it. Bob getting in a groan zone like Tina does and her obliviously asking if he's alright is a great show-to-movie payoff. Things like that made it feel big and important without breaking the scope of their world.
Just finished watching it!
It was nice, just felt like a longer episode basically. Nothing too interesting or world changing, but some cute songs and moments. The mystery aspect tied it all together very well, and the solution did catch me off guard (though I knew it wasn't the obvious suspect simply because it was too early for it to be figured out.)
But props to the animation! I've forgotten how stiff the show is, but seeing the same models move about the way they did in this feature made me realize how it is just time and budget, not skill that's keeping us from seeing actual good motion in animation.
>it is just time and budget, not skill that's keeping us from seeing actual good motion in animation
This. There are moments in the series that shine above the rest (namely saved for end credits dance sequences), but I'm sure the show could look far more impressive and closer to the movie if they weren't contracted to release 22 whole episodes every year. Bernard Derriman has expressed his joy at all the opportunities the movie gave them that were never possible with the show.
Pissed that my bae didn't even make an apperance on the movie
Trips of truth. Bob's Burger went in the exact opposite direction of the simpsons movie where every bit character got a cameo.
Man would love to see her in the credits, dancing her ass off.
That'll be hot for me
In an alternate timeline, Ms. Jacobson became a fan favorite character on the show, so the crew made sure to animate her into the end credits with a dance of her own.
Good taste, but she's not as iconic as other Wagstaff… staff like Frond or LaBonz. I'm more offended we didn't get a cameo from Mr. Ambrose, but he admittedly hasn't been used very much in the show lately. At least Mr. Branca got in a little dancing for the credits.
what episodes are required to enjoy the movie as much as possible
>what episodes are required to enjoy the movie
None at all. The movie was made for anyone to be able to go in blind and still enjoy it on its own.
>as much as possible
Every episode. There are cameos and background easter eggs sprinkled throughout, some of which even I had to refresh myself on.
I'd watch the world wharf two parter, should be the season 4 finale
It was fine. Glad I didn't pay ticket prices to see what was basically just an extra long regular episode, though.
>basically just an extra long regular episode
It wasn't tho
It kinda was tho
Just a longer episode of 'Wharf Horse'
as soon as they started singing, I shut it off.
musicals are the laziest way to fill time.
Weird take anon.
I’ll never understand people who hate musicals this much, especially when they’re lighthearted animated films. The two go together almost TOO perfectly every time.
Some people don't like music.
You and me both anon. I have a friend who always needs to loudly groan and complain whenever there's a musical number in anything we're watching, I really don't get it. I can understand not being a fan of them but actively hating them just seems so odd to me.
Can't stand musicals. I don't find any songs engaging or enjoyable. Not since I was about 12 on Weebls-Stuff.
imagine thinking you can outgrow music and aren't simply a joyless frick.
Misery is a natural part of adulthood, anon.
Steven has the nose of that celeb who did so much coke her nose fell off.
>Misery is a natural part of adulthood, anon.
Doesn't have to be
>I don't find any songs engaging or enjoyable.
ANY songs or just musical songs? I can see the latter happening but the former honestly sounds depressing
Well, I've never listened to music without simultaneously doing something else. I can't sit down still and just enjoy music. It's not just me.
That's fair, I guess just listening to music on its own isn't for everyone.
I hope I'll be half this happy and optimistic when I reach her age.
>I can understand not being a fan of them but actively hating them just seems so odd to me.
This. It's fine if someone's not personally a fan, but to actively hate such a genre meant to elicit strong emotions out of an audience—usually positive emotions—is something I'll never fathom.
No offense, but despite his love of musicals, Loren Bouchard has no musical talent (assuming it's even him shoehorning shitty musical numbers into everything he makes). It's just bad and low-effort and subsists entirely on camp. It's not music because music, it's a musical because musicals and that I can't stand.
>Loren Bouchard has no musical talent
I bet Loren Bouchard knows that but consider it part of the charm. It's why the Belcher kids are creative but not artistic, to capture the rough and simple childlike love of music and art.
It's kinda pretentious.
As someone who was raised on indie/alternative music and find most traditional musical theater to be overwrought and crap-sounding I can confirm it is part of the charm. Bouchard being totally untrained and only able to write using his own innate melodic sense has an authenticity to it. Compare to Rob Cantor’s songs for TGAMM which are usually boring off-brand xeroxes of mainstream songs; Bouchard doesn’t have the musical theory knowledge to even do that and the show is more unique and better off for it
I wouldn't guess that he had no musical training from that catchy opening song in the movie. Who else works on the BB music?
Nora Smith (who is also completely untrained) wrote the movie songs with him. Obviously they had a professional orchestra/arranger/conductor to flesh out the instrumentations but nobody else has songwriting credit.
On the show, Bouchard writes a lot of the music but the Elegant Too (who are professional musicians) contribute a good amount too, largely a lot of the funkier and more genre-pastiche stuff
Nowadays, everybody wanna talk like they got somethin' to say
But nothin' comes out when they move their lips
Just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfrickers act like they forgot about Bob

One of the more iconic post-S5 episodes. I still listen to "Sky Kiss" pretty often: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1y21DLs7OY
She's your mom?
She's YOUR mom! Nah, she's my mom...
Hope people got that reference when they watched it.
y'all know me, still the same OG
serving up these burgers with cheese or no cheese.
Did they constantly make background characters trip on the sidewalk outside the restaurant in the last 2 seasons to foreshadow the events of the movie?
>the soft serve machine still has a dent in it from when the shark bit it
>the bathroom that Felix renovated still has those idiotic modern fixtures
>Bob's tattoo still shows up anytime that part of his back is exposed
The new asphalt patch is gonna be out in front of the restaurant from now on, isn't it?
Not as dark I doubt. It'd look jarring and distract from the scenes. Maybe a faint crackline.
it was pretty good
like a long episode of the series
Stupid Chloe Barbash was right, I am a baby. I was too scared to go in the hole, I was too scared to open the secret nipple door---Tina had to do it for me! And I... wear these frickin' ears. (sobs) I mean, if you're brave, you don't... have to prove you're brave, you just ARE brave.
>What? Louise, you're... you're brave! You're one of the bravest people I know.
It's not true! Also, you don't know that many people.
>Mmm.
Was funny and not full of woke garbage. I liked it
>3 minutes and 30 odd seconds already talking about poop.
The animation is technically good but kind of feels WRONG somehow. Like I'm not how to describe it but it's got that kind of rubbery look you used to see in some shows. It's like they got all the extra frames they wanted and were determined to use them regardless of whether they needed too or not and went absolutely nutbars on the shading and extra depth of field.
Yeah, they should have toned down the shadows. Loren was nutting over it in the behind the scenes video though.
just finished watching it, liked it a lot. For a 'show-to-movie' adaptation it's definitely up there for one of the better ones. Animation and background designs are fantastic, and all the little character moments like Bob knowing what Kuchi Kopi is and all of his Tina-like groaning really ties the whole thing together. first musical number was fantastic, everyone's kind of average singing voices oddly brings out something great but I didn't really much care for the other ones. not really deal-breaking but they're definitely not something I'd listen to on their own. Overall, very enjoyable, and even though it might've been a commercial flop I really hope it doesn't turn people away from making more 2D theatrical films because it was a real treat to see all of this amazing lighting and expressive animation
Who here told me the movie would get a second wind once it hit streaming? It's been over two days now, and I haven't seen anything about it on social media that isn't from the main crew. This shit's on TWO major streaming services in the U.S. and on fricking Disney+ in other countries, so what's the excuse now?
I'm just glad this movie exists at all. Many anons didn't even believe the film was real until the trailer came.
The excuse is the obvious: People have no taste. They're busy watching Love Island and garbage like that.
They're obviously watching real kino like Lightyear and Minions 2
It was trending on Twitter a couple days ago and I have seen multiple people say it’s the first BB thing they’ve seen and they liked it, so it’s having some success in that regard (which I imagine was one of the main reason to do this)
Just don't understand why the Five haven't been in these last two shows. Is it a mandate from high up? Are they being put on hold until a potential KFP4? Missed opportunity. An animated series would be the perfect way to further flesh the Five and all the dynamics out.
Anon, I think you're in the wrong thread.
They've basically pretty much given up on even pretending the show is REMOTELY about Bob didn't they?
Loren realized children watch the show so he made it more kid focused/friendly as a result. That butt has a fever short was even rated PG.
The kids are more exciting. What do Linda and Bob do? Go to quiz nights? Hang w friends at a loft party?
They outshone the kids in the camping episode, but usually Louise is the source of excitement. She's the breakout.
>What do Linda and Bob do? Go to quiz nights? Hang w friends at a loft party?
Help and raise their kids.
Yeah the movie's on Disney+ here and I think it's rated 6 and up. Kind of silly to think about anons speculating pre-release that there would be 1 F-bomb drop lol
Pretty much. The rest of the family members--namely the kids--get just as much star status at this point, and I feel like that's mainly due to Bob & Linda not having too many recurring adult characters to use for future episode plots, while the kids have a constantly growing list of teachers and students at Wagstaff that can always be pulled from.
Just this past season, there were only 4½ Bob-centered episodes out of a total of 22 (I say ½ because "A-Sprout a Boy" was still a Gene episode). And while it was nice of the writers to address Bob's difficulty making new friends in pic related, it's still a bummer that they don't seem very interested in actively changing that or simply going back to their roots, where a brand-new character to butt heads with Bob or Linda would take up the A-plot of an episode. It's just easier to do yet another school episode since the three kids are popular enough characters of their own, plus that's where most of the supporting cast resides. The writers really need to be reminded of the potential Bob has as a protagonist. Should they work to give him more A-plots moving forward, I just hope Bob's more assertive traits return along with that.
even if you just stick to the supporting cast Bob does have like Linda, Teddy and fricking Mort for crying outload, there's still plenty of potential just by having him do basic dad stuff even. More episodes where he bonds with or helps the kids with their problems. Is it really so hard to make a show about parents actually parenting.
>More episodes where he bonds with or helps the kids with their problems. Is it really so hard to make a show about parents actually parenting.
Fricking this. GOD, do they not realize all the wasted story potential sitting right under their noses? It's fine to let the kids have A-plots, but why must they always be separated from the parents entirely? You can be as mundane as you want, but getting to see the entire family bounce off each other will always make for an entertaining or endearing episode. Frick Wagstaff.
What did you expect?
Ratings matter.
Bob should be way nicer to Teddy.
That guy would catch a bullet for him.
They couldn't even let him really have the hero moment of the movie. And I know it being about Louis learning to be brave and shit but having a kid diffuse a bomb still seems a bit much for what should be within her power.
Oh hey thread's about to die. Once more, this movie was just a fricking delight man. I'm still pissed that it didn't come out in theaters where I live so I'll never get to see it on the big screen, but I'm still glad I waited for an HD digital release instead of settling for a hobo quality camrip.
It just makes me happy, the movie being good, the fact that it exists at all and that it still has a relatively small but passionate fanbase online despite not doing very well sales-wise.
Well said. I'm just happy it managed to come out in the end, let alone be well-received by those who watched it. Here's hoping Bob's Burgers keeps that momentum in the following season(s) of the show.
BUT THIS SUMMER I MIGHT SEE
JUST WHO I TURN OUT TO BE
AND IT'S GONNA BE THE SUNNY SIDE UP SUMMER OF OUR LIVES
