I think underwhelming is a bit strong. It was like an a pretty good episode. Maybe underwhelming if you expect the movie to be better than all the episodes.
>Maybe underwhelming if you expect the movie to be better than all the episodes.
Yeah I was. I figured it would've been a no-holds barred emotional beatdown where Bob actually loses the resturant in a parallel storyline of his mom dying but with a happy uptick of Bob getting a big win and get to own his own resturant and house.
Seeing Bob's mom was nice but I was expecting more of the movie was gonna be about her and showing who give Bob a dream to be his own chef making the food he wants to make.
Because I'm an adult who works a job 5 days a week. My days off are for sleep. I'll watch it when it gets a digital release and I can properly pirate it.
Anon please, there's got to be more to life than this for you.
Same, frick this life. I do all this while some openly racist fricks get rich with Youtube videos and webcomics. All I have are weekends where I don't do my hobbies because if I did, the weekend would be fricking over and I have to go to that shit job again.
Even worse is that I work at a complete shithole which makes me so sick, that I keep cleaning up that mess, underpaid, not thanked, and those morons will instantly ruin it again. Boss is the worst, he's mentally a 10 year old but somehow still gets fricking business deals.
It's got pulled from cinema over the weekend that just went, right? Three week run, I wanted to see it more than once but didn't have the time. Loved it, otherwise.
Just remember anon that you shouldn't have fomo because no one is during anything over this summer.
Just have a beer every now and then during one of those hot summer nights and you'll be good.
I fricking haaate that this probably played a big part in the low turnout for the movie. Again, Bob's Burgers is NOT a show that many people watch, especially post-2015. The writers/directors of the film have made it clear time and time again that they intended for the movie to be approachable to both longtime fans and newbies alike; but the problem with that is newbies wouldn't know this since they likely don't care enough to seek out any information on the movie and instead assume it requires a thorough knowledge of the show.
I guess of the few Bob's Burgers novices who DID go out of their way to see the film, not enough of them raised their voices about how enjoyable it can be even to people unfamiliar with the series. Even with some minor callbacks and references, the movie is surprisingly self-contained.
The movie shouldn't have been made in the first place and it doesn't matter that it did poorly, it won't impact whether or not the show continues to get renewed and it's had a excellent run anyway even if it did get cancelled as a result of this.
I've been watching the show with my wife for years, ultimately, whether it did good or bad I got to go to theater and see it with her and had fun. It meant a lot to me and I don't care if it bombed because the future of the franchise isn't riding on it.
I truly could not care less if the movie absolutely bombs at the box office. The people have spoken with their wallets, and if a charming 2D-animated film about a family down in the trenches didn't seem like something worth going to the movies for, then so be it. We all know how irrelevant Bob's Burgers has been the last 5+ years, so we all saw this coming.
All I care about is that the crew did the impossible and managed to finish the movie amid all the crazy company acquisitions, let alone brought the movie to the silver screen, let alone made A GOOD MOVIE. Poor theater ticket sales won't take that away from me, and it sure as hell won't affect the show. We're still going 13 seasons strong, and if anything, this movie probably pulled in MORE new fans to check out the show for the very first time. I love this movie, and that's what matters at the end of the day. As a fan, you don't know how worried I was that all these years of waiting would lead to a disappointing film. I'm glad my fears weren't justified.
. What you just saw was me going through the five stages of grief. I'm still disappointed that a show I love so much had its theatrical feature adaptation ignored by the general public, but I came to realize that as long as I enjoyed the film (which I very much did) and as long as the film flopping won't kill the regular series, I'm perfectly content. I accept the reality that Bob's Burgers just isn't as big as Family Guy or Rick and Morty, and that's okay. I can't wait to watch this movie again when it hits streaming, and you bet your ass I'm gonna buy that Blu-ray for those bonus features.
I love Chloe Barbash. I love everything about her.
I love how they include details like sheen and volume so you can know that she jas that good hair.
I love how she seems to get underneath Louise's skin and suffer zero consequences.
I love how she seems to innately understand that her and Louise have a rivarly now.
I love her smug attitide and how arguably she's not even that mich prettier then Louise.
I especially love how the writers seem to include more often, nothing really big just small appearances where she has a speaking role.
It means they like her and want to use her more often. The movie is proof of that.
>Can't wait for their big showdown
frankly I would almost give it to chloe 7 out of 10 times. For Louise to win she will have to dredge up old instincts and not underestimate Chloe's influence with the other kids.

I have the whole series downloaded, you might just be selectively remembering the standout episodes from the earlier seasons (like the food truck ep).
I have season 9 on right now. Tweentrepreneurs is excellent. The Halloween ep is good (it's the one with Rudy as Paul Rudd). Great Gatsby birthday party and Bob being a getaway driver for Edith...
I can't list every good episode, but the show is still strong. And judging by the comics, the team is very creative, so I don't expect they'll run out of ideas for quite some time.
Not my top ten but I wanted to show some love for later seasons:
>Aquaticism >Into the Mild >The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets >As I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Ramps >Tweentrepreneurs >The Fresh Principal >Poops! I didn't do it again >Copa-Bob-bana >Crystal Mess >Driving Big Dummy
Top Gun was pretty good and kept to the original style of the original

> sings there's nobody in herew, There's nobody in here.
Because the thing that turned me off from the series was the fricking kids, plus the only scene I cared about was about bob's mom and I saw that on youtube
Were they really that bad tho? The kids' efforts to try and save the restaurant made for an engaging A-plot reminiscent of E.T. or The Goonies. Yeah, I would've liked for the parents to have had just as much to do throughout the first half of the movie, but I didn't feel cheated this time since putting Louise at the front of the A-plot was a smart way of maintaining an emotional core present in the story. The scenes at the tree house and the Mole Hill were gorgeously executed, and "Lucky Ducks" is still such an earworm.
God, I love all the bounced lighting in the film's animation.
It seems like such a simple thing but having the colors of building bounce off each other and the characters really does give it a 'cinematic' look
Yes, thats the second thing I thought and then imagined how shitty a non-stiff animated Family Guy movie would look, where everyone makes a fricking B^U face while literally everything is moving like in one of those disgusting ass modern Warner cartoons and Tom & Jerry movies.

You laid it all out better than I ever could. My attraction to Linda goes beyond just her appearance. She just seems like a real fun gal to spend the rest of my days with. Any time the show has a little moment where Bob and Linda act equally aloof or tired is always a joy to see. Those two were made for each other, and I can't help but admire that.

Going back and watching that shot frame by frame, it's animated on 2s, but Bob and Linda are off-set. They're not moving at the same time, and also tweening along the background which is moving on 1s. If the BG was moving on 2s and you synced them up it would look smoother. The actual anim itself is gorgeous.
I was just happy to see the characters smile again. No idea why Bouchard's been so adamant about keeping blank expressions during fricking musical numbers. Musicals BEG for the characters to really emote, especially in animation.

This is one of my favourite little Louise moments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWRUVh83Eqo
Jimmy's a good salesman, but his food is terrible. And he's an even worse father. You mainly saw this in the early seasons back when he was a more prominent character, but Jimmy clearly fails to connect with all three of his sons. Jimmy knows this and uses the relative success of his business to feel better about all his shortcomings compared to Bob.
>Jimmy's a good salesman, but his food is terrible.
Jimmy seems like the kinda guy who just buys frozen food and sells it at a really high markup. There's just not enough Italian places around there for the locals to know better.
Yep, Lighthouse Studios (Ireland) and Mercury Filmworks (Canada) helped out with the animation. And like
The film is Disney veteran Dale Baer's last known works
mentioned, some veteran feature animators from Disney and Blue Sky were also brought on-board. Last but not least, Bernard Derriman got to really let his creative juices flow with the extended production time on this movie compared to the fast-paced production on the regular series. Even as the co-director who oversees the entire project, he still went ahead and animated many different shots himself.
I imagine Bob's Burgers could look as good as the movie does if the crew wasn't having to pump out 22 episodes a year.
Its a cute show with quirky characters and LOTS of singing.
A lot of the best episodes are in the first 4 seasons IMO and after it becomes a lot less edgy and kid-friendly
When I’m not at work im either doing some bullshit or getting myself ready to go back to school so I don’t have to hopefully work bullshit soul-sucking shit jobs anymore.
Louise' burgers of the day were funny, why did they drop them after the second episode when it seemed like it would be a recurring bit? Is Louise' burger humor too weird and offensive for TV? Is that what this scene from season 3 is hinting at. >Bob: What's so funny? >Mickey: The burger of the day, Bob! I just noticed it- The "Beets Me Burger"! Hahaha, that's brilliant! Ohhh, it works on so many levels. >Bob: It's not THAT good. I mean, LOUISE would... Come up with a better one than that. Like, she would write, like, "Dia-beet-es Burger: Comes with insulin!" >Mickey: ...Ohhh. That's in poor taste, huh? >Bob: Sure, but that's what makes it fun, that- >Mickey: That doesn't sound fun, it sounds hurtful. That's a... Really terrible disease. >Bob: Well, I know, that's- >Mickey: My grandmother had that disease. >Bob: Well, I'm sorry- >Mickey: B.B. King has that disease. >Bob: Shut up, Mickey. I'm sorry, but just- Hush.

The show started off trying to edgy as much as it could to stand out, now they toned everything down because they're the burger show now.
That'd be dumb for him if he declined even the tiny cameo he got, since he's not a major character. Mickey isn't that valuable. He could literally phone in his lines and collect money, no need to get greedy.
It's just bad filmography. Louise came to realize it's not a big deal to bee seen without her bunny ears. Without the ears, Louise is still Louise. If it's no longer a big deal for the character to be seen without then, obviously, SHOW IT LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL when they fall off. Just keep her in frame, no fanfare, no crazy close-up, just keep her in frame. Not showing her without the ears defeated the entire point of her arc.
The absolute refusal to show Teddy's mom or Ginger's face in the show proves that these three frickers live off of narrative edging. They're proud to know that they hold the power to keep us from ever seeing Louise without her hat.

suggested.
It would have been so great to see a wide shot of her on the pull-up bar, have her ears fall off, and she just casually bends down and grabs them. No zooms, no cuts, no dramatic sting. It would have been the cherry on top of her arc. Frick
Was the marketing really that bad? Even a regular Joe wouldn't know the movie's playing in theaters until 3+ weeks later? I was in New York for a few days last month, and I swear I saw a billboard and some taxicabs advertising the film.
I truly could not care less if the movie absolutely bombs at the box office. The people have spoken with their wallets, and if a charming 2D-animated film about a family down in the trenches didn't seem like something worth going to the movies for, then so be it. We all know how irrelevant Bob's Burgers has been the last 5+ years, so we all saw this coming.
All I care about is that the crew did the impossible and managed to finish the movie amid all the crazy company acquisitions, let alone brought the movie to the silver screen, let alone made A GOOD MOVIE. Poor theater ticket sales won't take that away from me, and it sure as hell won't affect the show. We're still going 13 seasons strong, and if anything, this movie probably pulled in MORE new fans to check out the show for the very first time. I love this movie, and that's what matters at the end of the day. As a fan, you don't know how worried I was that all these years of waiting would lead to a disappointing film. I'm glad my fears weren't justified.
This. Many reviewers who loved the movie said they had never watched Bob's Burgers before... If this is the last time any 2D animation appears in cinemas, I will be glad that it ended with king Bob.

It had not guys , do a timeskip at the end of the movie, kill off a side character or idk SHOW LOUISE"S HAIR. The simpsons movie had guts. I live bob's burgers and just found this a episode with good production value. I wanted more for sure. Big dissappointment.
There's just something about the attitude they have that not showing Louise without a Hat is a brave and bold writing choice that comes off as condescending and arrogant.
As a Teddychad, I disagree. He was along for the ride during Bob & Linda's stressful B-plot for the first half of the film, he got a funny overly dramatic moment in the alley, and he was even there to help save the day. The olive tray becoming more useful than initially believed was *Chef's kiss*
For a promotional poster meant to give a quick rundown on each character, all this really did was make both Gene and Tina sound like cringy dead weight.
The movie was definitely more of a Louise story, but Tina wasn't dead weight. As for Gene, you could've pulled him out of the film entirely and not much would've changed.

Alright, "cringy dead weight" is pretty harsh. The movie was definitely one of the daring exploits of Louise, but Tina and Gene were better Louise support than ever in the movie. I'd even go so far as to say Gene wasn't even obnoxious, he even got a few chuckles out of me.

Tina did Louise's bidding when she wasn't brave enough.
Gene is along for the ride.
Not likely. And even if the positive response to the movie's animation influences the crew's approach to the series moving forward, we wouldn't see the effects of that until a potential 14th or even 15th season.
It's not even so much about the stiffness but lack of details. Characters nowaday just sit or stand and just talk. They don't really move around or look for things to do, they just face the camera so to speak and say the line.
The show needs more dynamism, both in visual and storytelling.
Why? It only sped up the decline of the show and allowed major cracks to form in its characterizations and formula. Matt & Trey didn't do that for South Park and the show is far better off for it.
>I literally said it was because it was popular with kids and families.
But that's not a valid reason to change it, other adult shows like South Park or The Simpsons didn't change just for that.
Because speaking of South Park, Bob's Burgers might want to look into serialized storytelling. Just a season long overarching plot, actions feed into one another and create consequences.
Do the writers and artists even notice how dull the show's been getting? I miss the ukulele transition cues, I miss seeing characters smile, and I miss Bob putting his foot down every once in a while. Where did all of that go?
>Do the writers and artists even notice how dull the show's been getting?
Possibly but I'm sure they rationalize as a necessary evil to create a "family friendly" show that the kids could watch.
Which really sounds incredibly patronizing coming from a guy like Loren Bouchard because really he should know better.
Has the staff changed that much or not enough? Like I wonder how many people left for Central Park, maybe that brain drain could account for some of the decline.

The writing staff nowadays is near identical to how it was in Season 1. The Molyneux Sisters are making The Great North and Kelvin Yu left to go showrun Central Park, so Jameel Saleem's been the first new Bob's writer in YEARS. He wrote the loft bed and spider episodes last season.
Bob's Burgers has become an echo chamber that embraces the dull, safe writing coming out in recent years. This is the exact opposite problem Rick and Morty faced. Just two different extremes that are equally effective in fricking with a show's identity.
Sometimes you need a little new blood in the writers' room, but not so much that the initial vision gets lost in the process. Then again, the vision for Bob's still managed to get lost after enough time. The show's more about the kids now, and Bob himself feels like a shell of his former self, just a fricking pathetic pushover you can barely root for because of how pitiful his character has become.

Yeah, they've introduced so many characters over the show's run, yet the writers insist on keeping the world feeling so small as of late. Outside of the occasional Nat appearance, it's just been Tina begging for Tammy/Jimmy Jr.'s approval, Louise mayyybe getting up to some interesting stuff with her fellow 4th graders, and Bob having no friends for whatever reason. There's room for growth here even within static sitcom timeline, but it just feels like the writers keep spinning their wheels.

Season 11 ended with Tina actually realizing she has outgrown the group of kids she usually hang out with. Why not bring back Josh or the semi-goth girl from the hotel episode? Why not put Gene in theater again?

Logan had what it took to be a long lasting reoccurring character like Nelson from the simpsons. first episode he showed up and he did something memorable by stealing Louise's ears. he made an impression on both Louise and that episode is memorable because of that. seeing him in the mother daughter laser tag episode only reinforces the idea that this is gonna be a character we're gonna see more of.

The third episode Logan showed up is where things got weird. A solid premise of Logan working at the restaurant and getting into a prank war with Louise is soured by Louise attacking her father and presenting Logan's presence as a moral failing of Bob.
Which is a weird escalation. It goes from Louise and Logan pranking each other to Bob being a bad dad for not considering how Louise would feel about working with Logan.
It ruined the entire mood for Logan episodes for the writers because it shifts the entire dynamic of the first two episodes. It went from Louise being an near equal to Louise being a helpless 9 year old girl being picked on.

Andbthe sledding episode serves almost as the end of Logan episodes. Written by the same writer who wrote the ear-sy rider episode. Logan goes from an average punk teen to a unpopular bully hated by every girl in his school while St.Louise has matured from siccing grown ass men on Logan to showing him mercy from high school girls with snowballs. What could have been a dependable reoccuring character to show up when Louise needs it is now a character who only shows up in five episodes.
It's almost like they dropped the whole "half kid, half Bugs Bunny, idolizes movie villains" aspect Louise had going for her and settled on making her more lighthearted, vulnerable, and innocent instead. It seems like they didn't really understand what they had with the Logan character either.

It's the constant decison to cutoff potential avenue for the show
Bob can't keep his community garden because then Bob would have to interact with more people outside the family.
Linda and Cynthia can't fimd share common ground with having a troublemaking kid that they both love dearly because then they might hang out more often.
And Louise couldn't just start enjoying her prank war with Logan in earnest. No she has to turn this inward and make it about her and her dad so we have Bob giving Louise the power to permanently ban Logan from the restuarant just to ensure Logan never shows up as a regular in the restuarant.

Remember Josh? An attractive boy who genuinely likes Tina and doesn't treat her like trash? Remember how they just decided that the mutal attraction he and Tina had doesn't exist anymore? It wasn't enough that he and Tina go to a different school and ran in different circles which could explain why we don'tsee him a lot, they had to get rid of the potential of Josh ever showing up again.

That's the joke; He is a bully to a 9 year old. He is 16 and his nemesis is a 9 year old girl. The joke is that he is immature, petty and can't get over his one unfought battle.
Louise tattled on him. He lied and said he'd thrown her ears away. She escalated and got white-supremacist meth-heads to threaten his life, within reason. His mother then started to rouse rabble at Louise's family's restaurant and Mudflap having her baby in that moment took all the piss and vinegar out of the room.
Logan's animosity towards Louise is an itch he did not scratch. A pimple he did not pop. A nit he did not pick.
She's 9. He's 7 years her senior and he can't get over it.

No Louise is a bully. Sometimes she's a bully for good but most of the other time she's just making fun of people and forcing them to do what she wants to do. That's why Louigan works, it's a bully meeting another bully and getting into a bully-off.

Bruh, she's friends with Andy and Ollie, who may well be genuinely moronic. She's never pointed out their disability, or Jimmy Jr's lisp... She mistreats people occasionally, but definitely no bullying.
It's more like sociopathic type behavior (Andy and Ollie forced to count money in the freezer). She mistreats people to gain some sort of result, not for the sheer pleasure of hurting their feelings etc.
If she took over a parking lot, she wouldn't attack people just for walking across. She might set up barricades and charge money to walk through.

Sometimes she's a bully, sometimes she's not. Sometimes her target is a fool that deserves it, sometimes it isn't. She's got a humongous heart, but she's also tiny, self-interested, and overly-ambitious so she's prone to using underhanded tactics not limited to bullying.

Like season 11 has a great Tina episode where she realizes she outgrew her circle of so called friends. It had a lovely message about how Tina will find a group of people who truly appreciates her for her. And what did Tina do in season 12? she tried to hang out with her so called friends even though what they were doing turned out to be dumb and uninteresting to her. WHY? Tina is better then Tammy amd Jimmy Jr. She's more charismatic then Jimmy Jr and Tammy and if anything they should be the one ls trying to impress her.

Quit whining!
THANK YOU for bringing up the Season 11 finale. What was the point of introducing Tina's realization that she'd outgrown her "friends" if you're just gonna keep doing the same stories revolving around her trying to fit in with them? "FOMO You Didn't" pissed me off because you could literally use Susmita in more episodes (isn't she a regular on The Great North anyway?).
But my biggest pet peeve is how Bob "has no friends." What made the writers completely drop the fellow restaurateurs around Wonder Wharf? Sure, guys like Reggie aren't FRIENDS in the same sense that Teddy or even Mort are, but Seymour's Bay has a whole untapped community of characters that the writers keep omitting.
My biggest movie gripe is Tina going after Jimmy Jr. Frick that mfer. I thought they'd hint at Zeke... TIna's friends are ass.
Bob having no friends makes a lot of sense... Linda is the one to have friends. Bob has always claimed to not like people or talking.

I'm not even a big fan of season 1 except a few moments like the child molester scene. But yeah, honestly there's a smattering of good eps in seasons 8 and up.
If they have the right writing prompt, they could definitely make a season 2 type episode again. I don't think they're AGAINST Bob on drugs or Louise burning shit, it just has to be the right circumstance.
You gotta remember, with Jimmy Pesto gone Bob doesn't have a rival to get mad at, he needs a good replacement rival ASAP. Like Mrs. Pesto... But Louise, well, I expect some Carrie-esque humiliation of Chloe Barbash if Chloe doesn't learn to fear the crazy oddball weeb girl.

It's pretty heartless and silly to ban Pesto's VA just for going to a protest, even if it's for something they don't agree with. It's not like he did anything violent, illegal, or unconstitutional. I wouldn't ban a VA just for attending a gay pride or abortion protest.

Nobody cared that much. Even if they did, you shouldn't give in to that sort of thing. That's a really flimsy excuse for immoral, political virtue signallikng and it sets a bad precedent.
I guess some people were expecting it to have Bob as the center-piece arc and for him to go on a huge journey and for them to put a dome over the town and for Bob to climb the dome.
Why? It only sped up the decline of the show and allowed major cracks to form in its characterizations and formula. Matt & Trey didn't do that for South Park and the show is far better off for it.
>Why?
I literally said it was because it was popular with kids and families. > It only sped up the decline of the show
They started changing things like around season 3 and considering how long it's lasted and all the knockoffs it's spawned I'd say it had the opposite effect. If they just stuck to being a Family Guy ripoff they probably would've gotten cancelled.
>I literally said it was because it was popular with kids and families.
But that's not a valid reason to change it, other adult shows like South Park or The Simpsons didn't change just for that.
I sort of hate how every Bob's Burgers thread turns into Louise simping? I mean... It's fine. It's okay, but... Maybe... It should stop happening like that?

I love it when schools only have like 5 kids in an entire grade.
I like when Louise gets to act like a villain. I love her dynamic with Andy & Ollie in The Belchies and The Kids Run the Restaurant. Anyone compile a list of episodes like that?
Ayo hold up. "Bed Bob & Beyond" is the one where the kids try to fix Bob & Linda's argument on the drive home from a failed movie theater outing by coming up with the rest of the movie they missed out on and thematically tying it into the parents' argument while also hiding the fact they broke Gene's bed just earlier.
My sister is also got me into Bob's Burgers, but I saw it... though without her because she has mental health issues and that day was particularly bad.
Hard to say. Louise still overheard Bob stressing over possibly losing the restaurant for good, and she's usually pretty headstrong when on a mission to help out a fellow Belcher (Bad Tina, Tina Tailor Soldier Spy, Drumforgiven). But that mounting insecurity caused by Chloe's comment definitely ramped up Louise's drive.
Hmm, this thread has convinced me to give the series another go. I watched like the first few episodes of the first season ages ago, but at the time i didn't care for it. Maybe I'll like it now. good excuse to draw some louise
Been watching all the episodes I missed and it's been fun. It's not making me laugh a lot but it's consistently putting a smile on my face. That and the strong family dynamic is what carries this show by a lot.
Have you actually sat down and watched a full episode? You're missing out. The show looks great, and the movie looks even better. The voice acting's also top-notch, but it's understandable if the teenage daughter's voice takes some getting used to.
I had an episode idea. >Bob and Jimmy Pesto open their stores in the morning >they silently stare each other down >the kids make fun of Bob's rivalry with Jimmy >Linda comments on how quiet Pesto has been lately >cut to a montage of flashbacks of Bob and his family humiliating themselves with Jimmy Pesto around >they look at him expecting a cutting remark, but he just glares silently and walks away in every flashback >Bob happens to be outside for Jimmy Jr screaming at his dad for ignoring him lately >Jimmy has a thousand yard stare and avoid's eye contact with his son >Bob finds this really strange >the family convinces Bob to go talk to him about how he's been acting >Bob goes to Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria right as it's closing >tries to ask Trev about how differently Jimmy's been acting >Trev tries to deny it, Bob pushes the subject, Trev chokes back tears and admit that Jimmy hasn't said a word to anyone in weeks, he just seems fed up and despondent all the time >Bob goes back home and talks with his family about what Trev said >Tina mentions it's been deeply upsetting for Jimmy Jr >Bob decides to go talk with Jimmy about it the next day >maybe Louise schemes to she take over the Pizzaria and use mopey mute Jimmy Pesto as a figurehead or something >Bob goes to Jimmy's apartment >Jimmy buzzes Bob in immediately, surprising Bob >Bob tries to talk to Jimmy >no response >Bob starts to explain how Jimmy's recent behavior is hurting the people he cares about >no response >Bob grabs Jimmy by the shoulders and demands he talks to him >Jimmy looks at Bob pleadingly, but doesn't say a word >Jimmy swallows his pride and, defeated, gestures to his throat >Jimmy mouths something to Bob while he grasps his own throat >Bob backs away and realizes something's very wrong >Jimmy Pesto can't speak, he's mute
1/2
In the second part it turns out he was rendered mute when he was throat punched and beaten by the members of the yacht club. That's after he learned about some of the shady dealings the members were getting into, then Jimmy threated to go public with them (if they didn't let him join). After beating him and unintentionally rendering him mute, they threatened his family in the event Jimmy blabs.
Jimmy and Bob resolving this, exposing the yacht club for their crimes, and learning where to go from there is the B-plot to Louise running Jimmy's pizzeria in his stead.
2/2
See, this chart (of unspecified origin) clearly shows that the movie's screentime was primarily split between Louise and Linda, with Bob, Tina and Gene pulling up the rear.
I'm actually shocked Teddy was as contained as he was.
But I did, even though I was hoping it would be her dad's movie.
Whoa are you me?
I did, I enjoyed myself even if I think the movie was underwhelming.
I think underwhelming is a bit strong. It was like an a pretty good episode. Maybe underwhelming if you expect the movie to be better than all the episodes.
>Maybe underwhelming if you expect the movie to be better than all the episodes.
Yeah I was. I figured it would've been a no-holds barred emotional beatdown where Bob actually loses the resturant in a parallel storyline of his mom dying but with a happy uptick of Bob getting a big win and get to own his own resturant and house.
Seeing Bob's mom was nice but I was expecting more of the movie was gonna be about her and showing who give Bob a dream to be his own chef making the food he wants to make.

I work 6 days and it's pissing me off.
I've never seen the show.
you can watch the movie never seeing the show before and have the entire series explained to you by the intro song.
They make borgars.
I fricking haaate that this probably played a big part in the low turnout for the movie. Again, Bob's Burgers is NOT a show that many people watch, especially post-2015. The writers/directors of the film have made it clear time and time again that they intended for the movie to be approachable to both longtime fans and newbies alike; but the problem with that is newbies wouldn't know this since they likely don't care enough to seek out any information on the movie and instead assume it requires a thorough knowledge of the show.
I guess of the few Bob's Burgers novices who DID go out of their way to see the film, not enough of them raised their voices about how enjoyable it can be even to people unfamiliar with the series. Even with some minor callbacks and references, the movie is surprisingly self-contained.
The movie shouldn't have been made in the first place and it doesn't matter that it did poorly, it won't impact whether or not the show continues to get renewed and it's had a excellent run anyway even if it did get cancelled as a result of this.
I've been watching the show with my wife for years, ultimately, whether it did good or bad I got to go to theater and see it with her and had fun. It meant a lot to me and I don't care if it bombed because the future of the franchise isn't riding on it.
I'm the same anon as
. What you just saw was me going through the five stages of grief. I'm still disappointed that a show I love so much had its theatrical feature adaptation ignored by the general public, but I came to realize that as long as I enjoyed the film (which I very much did) and as long as the film flopping won't kill the regular series, I'm perfectly content. I accept the reality that Bob's Burgers just isn't as big as Family Guy or Rick and Morty, and that's okay. I can't wait to watch this movie again when it hits streaming, and you bet your ass I'm gonna buy that Blu-ray for those bonus features.
I watched it purely to see Chloe Barbash make fun of Louise and to see if they really did make her thighs that thick.
She did and they did.
I love Chloe Barbash. I love everything about her.
I love how they include details like sheen and volume so you can know that she jas that good hair.
I love how she seems to get underneath Louise's skin and suffer zero consequences.
I love how she seems to innately understand that her and Louise have a rivarly now.
I love her smug attitide and how arguably she's not even that mich prettier then Louise.
I especially love how the writers seem to include more often, nothing really big just small appearances where she has a speaking role.
It means they like her and want to use her more often. The movie is proof of that.
I feel somehow honored that someone saved a photo of my television. Thank you.
It's because I'm too lazy to find actual screencaps of the later episodes.
And you're welcome.
Yeah, it actually seems like Louise is about as pretty as Chloe (and puts in zero effort). She's just a weirdo.
Can't wait for their big showdown.
>Can't wait for their big showdown
frankly I would almost give it to chloe 7 out of 10 times. For Louise to win she will have to dredge up old instincts and not underestimate Chloe's influence with the other kids.
Louise takes it eeeeezy. She'd do something super elaborate that destroys her reputation forever. Chloe should be scared.
>Chloe laughing because she knows Louise has gone soft and won't do anything.
But truthfully what I really want is for Chloe and Louise to team up against a common enemy, maybe like a ppain looking girl who is actually a raging b***h.
>Chloe and Louise to team up against a common enemy
Yeah, my dick.
I love how she's wearing leggings instead of tights here.
Either she's copying Louise or she just feels it's perfect weather for going without socks.
It's her summer outfit.
bobs burgers hasn’t been good in at least 5 years
Then the movie happened and now it's good again.
I have the whole series downloaded, you might just be selectively remembering the standout episodes from the earlier seasons (like the food truck ep).
I have season 9 on right now. Tweentrepreneurs is excellent. The Halloween ep is good (it's the one with Rudy as Paul Rudd). Great Gatsby birthday party and Bob being a getaway driver for Edith...
I can't list every good episode, but the show is still strong. And judging by the comics, the team is very creative, so I don't expect they'll run out of ideas for quite some time.
It doesn't run in my country.
Best Episodes:
>Human Flesh
>Weekend at Mort's
>Lobsterfest
>The Belchies
>Ear-sy Rider
>An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal
>Tina Tailor Soldier Spy
>The Millie-churian Candidate
>Glued, Where's My Bob?

Not my top ten but I wanted to show some love for later seasons:
>Aquaticism
>Into the Mild
>The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets
>As I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Ramps
>Tweentrepreneurs
>The Fresh Principal
>Poops! I didn't do it again
>Copa-Bob-bana
>Crystal Mess
>Driving Big Dummy
same reason I don't watch the show anymore, they fired Jay Johnston
I did and I throughly enjoyed it and genuinly still have Lucky Ducks stuck in my head
The theatre I saw it in was so shit, that when it comes out on streaming it will be like watching it brand new.
I'm too lazy to walk to my local theater and this movie hasn't motivated me
Top Gun was pretty good and kept to the original style of the original
The highest ranking person there was even white and old so it seems like we might see more flight based movies
Did planes do good? Never watched it
Ok dude, now that's really hurtful.
"Too bad its Sunday. Those cinemas would be filled tomorrow."
watched it twice and those times there was only my group and 2 other families there. It was a good movie
>good movie
>seen in an empty theater
Every time. Thanks for doing your part, anon. I loved the movie, too.
That's my favoutite!!
Nobody to slurp or munch through the movie.
No one who yaks through it!
Pick your own seat.
> sings there's nobody in herew, There's nobody in here.
I honestly love watching movies by myself but Bob's was kind of the one I wanted to see with a big crowd laughing along at all the jokes ; _ ;
Because the thing that turned me off from the series was the fricking kids, plus the only scene I cared about was about bob's mom and I saw that on youtube
Were they really that bad tho? The kids' efforts to try and save the restaurant made for an engaging A-plot reminiscent of E.T. or The Goonies. Yeah, I would've liked for the parents to have had just as much to do throughout the first half of the movie, but I didn't feel cheated this time since putting Louise at the front of the A-plot was a smart way of maintaining an emotional core present in the story. The scenes at the tree house and the Mole Hill were gorgeously executed, and "Lucky Ducks" is still such an earworm.
God, I love all the bounced lighting in the film's animation.
It seems like such a simple thing but having the colors of building bounce off each other and the characters really does give it a 'cinematic' look
If you don't like the kids you can't like the show. They're the best characters, bruh. Bob can't carry it all alone.
KINO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGqRffMMaLM
>The animation is uploaded
omgomgomg
because it's coming out on HBO Max in a few weeks and I'm fine with waiting
Nice. There are some very WebM-worthy scenes that need to be immortalized on here.
time to clip literally every Louise scene
Man I'm digging the fancy footwork(non-sexually).
Its so weird seeing that art direction move so much.
It's kinda well suited for it to.
Yes, thats the second thing I thought and then imagined how shitty a non-stiff animated Family Guy movie would look, where everyone makes a fricking B^U face while literally everything is moving like in one of those disgusting ass modern Warner cartoons and Tom & Jerry movies.
>non-stiff animated Family Guy movie would look
it'd probably look weird as hell a lot of the time
I'd imagine they'd try out more ambitious angles and it'd be kind odd considering how used to seeing them from the 3/4th angle
Meanwhile, Bob's characters are kinda designed like puppets and I'm not talking about like from a technical animation side, like actual muppets, especially with the no visible teeth
>they'd try out more ambitious angles
I'm glad that they AREN'T ambitious so it will never happen anyway
True
Seth and the writers don't seem to really give a shit about making a movie
Hasn't even mentioned it since 2019
Yeah, people really underestimate how appealing the Bob's art style turned out to be. I hope the movie made that a little more apparent to everyone.
There've been the odd moments throughout Bob's Burgers where you get some really expressive animation. Some during end credits sequences, others in the middle of an episode.
Reminds me of the Highwayman in Over the Garden Wall. Also reminds me of how they animated the shit out of Nutales season 3 while still aesthetically looking like lazy Flash animation. So weird.
Its like the fake 2D shit we saw in rescue rangers but still actually 2D so it looks much better
god, RWBY-tier cel-shading
every time a "2D" character closed their hands the finger rigging was shit
it made me so happy seeing them move like this on the big screen
theres just something about films based on TV shows that makes me smile, seeing characters from this little box up on a wide format display
Protect that bob smile at any cost
agreed
Man everyone was just fun at dancing.
I can see how Loren thought this was gonna be a musical, those steps are light.
>Loren thought this was gonna be a musical
Would've preferred wall-to-wall songs like the South Park movie but it had a nice balance
Though, there had to have been episodes of the show that had more songs than the film did, right?
I can only list Just One of the Boyz 4 Now for Now off the top of my head. I don't remember liking many of the songs tho
The bleakening though that's kinda cheating as it's a 2-parter. Same for Wharf Horse or Bob destroys then saves the town.
I get why Linda tries so hard to protect Bob's smile. When he's positive and optimistic, he's a strong force of good. Louise really does take after him, without the "forced to do nothing but work and constantly criticized as a child, beaten down by life, nearly dead inside" parts that make Bob Bob.
every day i envy Bob more and more and wish I had his life
I wish I could wake up to this every morning
I love how bouncy everyone's hair was in this movie
Yeah, a little hair definition is always appreciated
you know, the more i try to analyze it the more i can understand why people feel attraction to linda. linda is not a model, she's not perfect and has flaws but she's the sunshine of every morning, she's a supportive wife who will never leave bob despite his risky job, social class and his hairy out of shape body, she always finds the good side of all and see the positive aspects of bob, she'll stick with him no matter what. she's also a mother of three and is a supportive mom who does her best to be patient over each one of them, she loves her children and always cheer them up everyday, she is a fullfilled woman, a loyal supportive wife and a loving and caring mother and if you think of it for a moment, she's the woman every man wishes to have and those traits of her is what makes her not only likeable but also attractive.
You laid it all out better than I ever could. My attraction to Linda goes beyond just her appearance. She just seems like a real fun gal to spend the rest of my days with. Any time the show has a little moment where Bob and Linda act equally aloof or tired is always a joy to see. Those two were made for each other, and I can't help but admire that.
i mean, she isn't like those muh empowering women and ironically she's already fulfilled by having what many women nowadays can't and wish to have which is a family.
This silly cartoon about an unlucky burger chef made me want to find my own ride-or-die.
i don't like it. looks like rotoscoping. Jerky and fluid at the same time.
That definitely isn't rotoscope.
You sure Bob? I think it might be.
You know i never noticed that they sell beer at the restaurant, someone should do a greentext of the kids stealing it and seeing what happens
>Gene is a happy drunk who is everyone's friend but Bob's
>Tina is a hopeless romantic drunk that wants to kiss everyone
>Louise can drink everyone under the table for some odd reason.
Those might be too obvious. I'd kinda enjoy Louise being a HUGE lightweight, because wasted Louise would be hilarious.
>Gene starts off a happy drunk but he gets more sensitive and self-conscious
>Tina gets way too confident and flirty
>Louise gets super carefree, nice, and bubbly
Going back and watching that shot frame by frame, it's animated on 2s, but Bob and Linda are off-set. They're not moving at the same time, and also tweening along the background which is moving on 1s. If the BG was moving on 2s and you synced them up it would look smoother. The actual anim itself is gorgeous.
>this little box
Little? In 2022?!
But yeah I had that feeling with the Simpsons movie. Until the show after it killed my love for the Simpsons movie.
I was just happy to see the characters smile again. No idea why Bouchard's been so adamant about keeping blank expressions during fricking musical numbers. Musicals BEG for the characters to really emote, especially in animation.
I am mesmerized by Linda's chest
Naturally.
The show could stand to use some more creative shot choices like these.
>boob jiggle
UNF
I love Linda's breasts, don't get me wrong, but those are NOT jiggle physics.
Those background kids needed to be dancing.
would've been nice
One of many reasons why Tina's section was my favourite
>Bunnyhopping.webm
>that dance when Grover sings "And I'll get the best mar-ket-ers to do the best maaarketing
I LOVED the animation on Grover, even outside of his goofy song
It really is some Monkey Paw shit that I want to see Grover's song and dance without going to the theater again but also the film getting dumped to streaming so fast makes me sad
HBOMAX? That's a surprise. Hope it's 4K. Some HBOMAX movie uploads aren't 4K and UHD.
That's odd. Why wouldn't it be on Disney+? Don't they own Fox now?
It'll probably will be on Disney+ but just not a Disney+ exclusive, this happens because despite being in competition with one another streaming services need all the content they can handle.
There’s a contract pre-Disney that all Fox movies go first to HBO Max and later to DisneyPlus,
I bet VS tried to watch it but since he's paywalling everything he probably can't effort going to watch a movie.
I did, I liked it
is that family guy
lets be honest
this is the perfect woman
I envy Bob so fricking much. I'm sure Jimmy Pesto does, too.
>ywn hear Louise call you dady
Ugh frick
Unless you carefully clip her calling Bob "daddy" in Carpe Museum. That would be devilish indeed.
I love early Louise.
>Bob has a mental breakdown over a bad review
>starts pointing and screaming "OVERDONE AND DRY" from the sidewalk at random passersby
>Louise joins in too for no reason
This is one of my favourite little Louise moments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWRUVh83Eqo
Did they ever explain what Jimmys fricking problem is? Bob's not even competition.
Jimmy's a good salesman, but his food is terrible. And he's an even worse father. You mainly saw this in the early seasons back when he was a more prominent character, but Jimmy clearly fails to connect with all three of his sons. Jimmy knows this and uses the relative success of his business to feel better about all his shortcomings compared to Bob.
>Jimmy's a good salesman, but his food is terrible.
Jimmy seems like the kinda guy who just buys frozen food and sells it at a really high markup. There's just not enough Italian places around there for the locals to know better.
Was actually shocked at how good the animation was. Nice to see them putting that Disney animators to good use
I don't think is Disney house animators.
The film is Disney veteran Dale Baer's last known works
I can't believe Loren Bouchard actually killed him to appease the dark gods of animation but sacrifices have to be made I guess.
RIP Dan Baer.
I think I read a lot of this was animated by the same people who animated the cuphead show + Mercury film works
Yep, Lighthouse Studios (Ireland) and Mercury Filmworks (Canada) helped out with the animation. And like
mentioned, some veteran feature animators from Disney and Blue Sky were also brought on-board. Last but not least, Bernard Derriman got to really let his creative juices flow with the extended production time on this movie compared to the fast-paced production on the regular series. Even as the co-director who oversees the entire project, he still went ahead and animated many different shots himself.
I imagine Bob's Burgers could look as good as the movie does if the crew wasn't having to pump out 22 episodes a year.
The animation actually looked better than The Simpsons Movie
Though, they probably weren't constantly re-animating this film due to test screenings
It was literally the first movie I went to see in theaters in like 2 years
My first in about 8 years.
Now this is the energy I'm here for
Kristen Schaal's voice coming out of a bratty animated girl!!
Sell this show to me, the only cartoon I watch currently is American dad.
Its a cute show with quirky characters and LOTS of singing.
A lot of the best episodes are in the first 4 seasons IMO and after it becomes a lot less edgy and kid-friendly
It's got a lot of episodes and it makes for good noise on a lazy sunday.
When I’m not at work im either doing some bullshit or getting myself ready to go back to school so I don’t have to hopefully work bullshit soul-sucking shit jobs anymore.
cool blog anon but were talking about bob burders
Louise' burgers of the day were funny, why did they drop them after the second episode when it seemed like it would be a recurring bit? Is Louise' burger humor too weird and offensive for TV? Is that what this scene from season 3 is hinting at.
>Bob: What's so funny?
>Mickey: The burger of the day, Bob! I just noticed it- The "Beets Me Burger"! Hahaha, that's brilliant! Ohhh, it works on so many levels.
>Bob: It's not THAT good. I mean, LOUISE would... Come up with a better one than that. Like, she would write, like, "Dia-beet-es Burger: Comes with insulin!"
>Mickey: ...Ohhh. That's in poor taste, huh?
>Bob: Sure, but that's what makes it fun, that-
>Mickey: That doesn't sound fun, it sounds hurtful. That's a... Really terrible disease.
>Bob: Well, I know, that's-
>Mickey: My grandmother had that disease.
>Bob: Well, I'm sorry-
>Mickey: B.B. King has that disease.
>Bob: Shut up, Mickey. I'm sorry, but just- Hush.
Whoa is there a complete scan of the cook book?
I don't know, I pieced it together from a promotional faceberg post that had scans of the Poblano Picasso Burger, the Foot Feta-ish Burger, and the Sweaty Palms Burger.
Could you post those then? I love seeing promo art of these characters. It's always so charming.
I thought "My Daddy Beets Me Burger"
That seems like something Louise would write.
Mr. Frond walking into the restaurant with that on the chalkboard and shitting himself
That gave me a genuine chuckle.
>Louise with socks
No nooo, I don't think that's riiight.
You're right, socks are only gonna slow us down.
Where's your deviantart now?
It got shut down. Don't know why, just said I violated their community guidelines.
>adding shorts to Louise's swimsuit to prevent her from being sexualized.
Nice try bob's burgers.
For me it's Jocelyn's fat ass.
I wish it was only Jocelyn and not Jocelyn and Tammy...
It's more likely a character choice, to show that Louise doesn't like to feel too girly.
Now personally I find this direction to be needless. Few people in the world of the show pressures Louise to act girly in the pursuit of fulfilling gender roles. More people just ask for her to not be so creepy and unsettling.
Doesn't matter if nobody else says anything, if you feel like an outsider or weird, like you don't fit in, it could make you feel that way.
Of course, Louise definitively likes boys. Yassss.
Well obviously Bob's Burgers has a huge let your freak flag fly message to it but as often the show like to allude to Louise's insecurities I wonder what insecurities does she actually have?
>let your freak flag fly
WATCH ME BACKFLIP, WATCH ME BACKFLIP
So this is what turns you on, you sicko?"
It would be "The Beet-ing Your Meat Burger"
>Is Louise' burger humor too weird and offensive for TV?
yes and no
The show started off trying to edgy as much as it could to stand out, now they toned everything down because they're the burger show now.
Bob's Burgers stopped being good like 8 years ago.
I did
In theaters
This show must've been eating up Bill Hader's time cause I'm shocked they were able to get Paul Rudd back but not him.
Doubt it. I don't get how recording maybe 5 minutes of voice-over every season would take away THAT much time from Hader's schedule.
Btw, Barry is the fricking best. I almost forgive Hader for putting all his time into this show instead.
>only place to discuss it without censorship is Cinemaphile
Just frick my shit up Familia
Currently making my way through Season 3. How are we already going 100 mph on just the second episode? I can't wait to see where this heads
God and there's gonna be a season 4? What the frick is gonna happen then?
Rudd will play in literally anything even after Ant-Man
I suspect what actually happened is that his agent wanted too much money for him to be in a theatrical film right now while he's at his most popular
That'd be dumb for him if he declined even the tiny cameo he got, since he's not a major character. Mickey isn't that valuable. He could literally phone in his lines and collect money, no need to get greedy.
My audience actually booed when they copped out on showing Louise earless, and I joined in.
As you and they rightly should.
It's just bad filmography. Louise came to realize it's not a big deal to bee seen without her bunny ears. Without the ears, Louise is still Louise. If it's no longer a big deal for the character to be seen without then, obviously, SHOW IT LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL when they fall off. Just keep her in frame, no fanfare, no crazy close-up, just keep her in frame. Not showing her without the ears defeated the entire point of her arc.
The absolute refusal to show Teddy's mom or Ginger's face in the show proves that these three frickers live off of narrative edging. They're proud to know that they hold the power to keep us from ever seeing Louise without her hat.
>filmography
cinematography*
I was relieved.
I don't care if she'd look like a Tiny Linda, I wanna see it!
You don't, Mr. Simpson. Nobody does.
cute
I really don’t understand why they don’t just show her without it every once in awhile he’ll even that weird bear kid in great north goes without the bear suit every now and then
Same reason we never see Indiana Jones without his hat.
That is such a terrible analogy, have you never seen an Indians Jones movie before?
Maybe make a better joke
Not even that anon. Don't be a little b***h just because you didn't get the joke or recognize it as such.
It's the idea that subverting expectations and being anti-climactic is supposed to be poignant.
RUINED.
Goddamn, now I'm really pissed they didn't do what
suggested.
It would have been so great to see a wide shot of her on the pull-up bar, have her ears fall off, and she just casually bends down and grabs them. No zooms, no cuts, no dramatic sting. It would have been the cherry on top of her arc. Frick
That's effectively what she'd look like but I think the film's implication is that she actually looks like Bob's mom.
Completely forgot this came out until this thread
bait, you knew this came out already
I don't come here often
Was the marketing really that bad? Even a regular Joe wouldn't know the movie's playing in theaters until 3+ weeks later? I was in New York for a few days last month, and I swear I saw a billboard and some taxicabs advertising the film.

Put some respect on Bernard Derriman's name. He is THE DIRECTOR.
I like the way that line art looks.
Louise as an empty outline shell is somewhat depressing to see. THEY'RE STILL REAL TO ME DAMNIT!
I saw it on opening day
I thought it was okay
So is gene gay?
No, just a sperg. Gene had a thing for that big busty latina cook, and he has that girlfriend with the congenital heart problem.
Dang the only gays in the show are those raccoons because linda is a furry fujo
I truly could not care less if the movie absolutely bombs at the box office. The people have spoken with their wallets, and if a charming 2D-animated film about a family down in the trenches didn't seem like something worth going to the movies for, then so be it. We all know how irrelevant Bob's Burgers has been the last 5+ years, so we all saw this coming.
All I care about is that the crew did the impossible and managed to finish the movie amid all the crazy company acquisitions, let alone brought the movie to the silver screen, let alone made A GOOD MOVIE. Poor theater ticket sales won't take that away from me, and it sure as hell won't affect the show. We're still going 13 seasons strong, and if anything, this movie probably pulled in MORE new fans to check out the show for the very first time. I love this movie, and that's what matters at the end of the day. As a fan, you don't know how worried I was that all these years of waiting would lead to a disappointing film. I'm glad my fears weren't justified.
This. Many reviewers who loved the movie said they had never watched Bob's Burgers before... If this is the last time any 2D animation appears in cinemas, I will be glad that it ended with king Bob.

Read this in Bob's voice.

You mean in McGuirk's voice
I once dreamt Adult Swim greenlit an hour long Home Movies special instead of the Metalocalypse movie coming out.
>spaghetti time
This,
They cant unmake the film now
That's the spirit
I cycled to the cinema.
BICYCLE WANKER
You're just jealous of my Schwinn.
I haven't been to a theater in a while. Also, it will be streaming pretty soon anyways.
>leaving my house is already not a great idea because of the likelihood of peaceful protestors breaking in for their just-deserved reparations.
Where the frick do you live?
It had not guys , do a timeskip at the end of the movie, kill off a side character or idk SHOW LOUISE"S HAIR. The simpsons movie had guts. I live bob's burgers and just found this a episode with good production value. I wanted more for sure. Big dissappointment.
There's just something about the attitude they have that not showing Louise without a Hat is a brave and bold writing choice that comes off as condescending and arrogant.
I finally took my fiance to see it yesterday only to show up to a closed theater and the realization that my tickets were for the previous day
You goof.
>"we've got Mabel at home"
>the Mabel at home
Louise isn't as much of a c**t as Mabel though.
Strangely quite true.
Louise is better in some ways. They're both really great characters... Mabel is more cute and ditzy, Louise is deeper and more devious.
they're friends, stfu!
So cute!
Those thighhighs really work for Mabel.
Not enough Teddy.
As a Teddychad, I disagree. He was along for the ride during Bob & Linda's stressful B-plot for the first half of the film, he got a funny overly dramatic moment in the alley, and he was even there to help save the day. The olive tray becoming more useful than initially believed was *Chef's kiss*
The whole deal with the olive tray was just an excellent piece of writing, so satisfying.
Because I hate the Comedy Central audience and I refuse to endure a movie with those morons. One day I will surely see it.
>Bob's Burgers
>Comedy Central
In Germany it is.
>Germany
Yeah thats my face whenever I have to endure the average kraut.
I just KNOW the folks at Comedy Central have their tails tucked between their legs now that Futurama's coming back as a Hulu exclusive
My theater was mostly empty, with me and a few dads with their wives and kids. God I felt lonely.
That's cute
good 'ol light bulb head
the songs really grow on you
Yeah. A lot of anons in the very first talkback thread kept shitting on Sunny Side Up, but it's a really solid song. Very catchy, too.
It set the tone nicely and it was pretty catchy. The only flaw was too much Tina..
I'll fight you. Tina's section was so cute. If anything, I'd say there wasn't enough Gene.
Tina's section was fine, besides being too long.
Well, sounds like Tina in the show alright.
>secret soft side
>secret
For a promotional poster meant to give a quick rundown on each character, all this really did was make both Gene and Tina sound like cringy dead weight.
At least it's honest.
The movie was definitely more of a Louise story, but Tina wasn't dead weight. As for Gene, you could've pulled him out of the film entirely and not much would've changed.
Alright, "cringy dead weight" is pretty harsh. The movie was definitely one of the daring exploits of Louise, but Tina and Gene were better Louise support than ever in the movie. I'd even go so far as to say Gene wasn't even obnoxious, he even got a few chuckles out of me.
Tina did Louise's bidding when she wasn't brave enough.
Gene is along for the ride.
SUNNY SIDE UP SUMMER
tina was great, and of course louise and bob/linda
the best thing they did was to have gene as short as possible
Gene dances just like his dad it’s funny
it never really struck me how much they look like muppets until i saw the movie
yeah, i noticed that a lot more too with the movie. i'm not sure if it's from the more dynamic animation or from different character viewing angles
i cut out the fat
>i cut out the fat
His name is Gene!
Same here, which helps explains why they decided to stop trying to animate expressions in the later seasons.
what are the chances loren increases the animation in newer seasons so the characters aren't too stiff?
I feel like its ultimately up to the TV budget and them having to churn out 22 episodes a year.
Not likely. And even if the positive response to the movie's animation influences the crew's approach to the series moving forward, we wouldn't see the effects of that until a potential 14th or even 15th season.
It's not even so much about the stiffness but lack of details. Characters nowaday just sit or stand and just talk. They don't really move around or look for things to do, they just face the camera so to speak and say the line.
The show needs more dynamism, both in visual and storytelling.
Because speaking of South Park, Bob's Burgers might want to look into serialized storytelling. Just a season long overarching plot, actions feed into one another and create consequences.
Do the writers and artists even notice how dull the show's been getting? I miss the ukulele transition cues, I miss seeing characters smile, and I miss Bob putting his foot down every once in a while. Where did all of that go?
Tina really IS stacked isn't she
Like her mom and her grandmom before her.
>Do the writers and artists even notice how dull the show's been getting?
Possibly but I'm sure they rationalize as a necessary evil to create a "family friendly" show that the kids could watch.
Which really sounds incredibly patronizing coming from a guy like Loren Bouchard because really he should know better.
Has the staff changed that much or not enough? Like I wonder how many people left for Central Park, maybe that brain drain could account for some of the decline.
The writing staff nowadays is near identical to how it was in Season 1. The Molyneux Sisters are making The Great North and Kelvin Yu left to go showrun Central Park, so Jameel Saleem's been the first new Bob's writer in YEARS. He wrote the loft bed and spider episodes last season.
Bob's Burgers has become an echo chamber that embraces the dull, safe writing coming out in recent years. This is the exact opposite problem Rick and Morty faced. Just two different extremes that are equally effective in fricking with a show's identity.
Sometimes you need a little new blood in the writers' room, but not so much that the initial vision gets lost in the process. Then again, the vision for Bob's still managed to get lost after enough time. The show's more about the kids now, and Bob himself feels like a shell of his former self, just a fricking pathetic pushover you can barely root for because of how pitiful his character has become.
Oh the loft bed episode was nice... Always fun to see Louise wielding power tools or fire.
>Bob's Burgers has become an echo chamber that embraces the dull, safe writing coming out in recent years
It's almost incestuous really, the circle around the belchers is so tight that they're perfectly ok with never venturing out to do something different.
Yeah, they've introduced so many characters over the show's run, yet the writers insist on keeping the world feeling so small as of late. Outside of the occasional Nat appearance, it's just been Tina begging for Tammy/Jimmy Jr.'s approval, Louise mayyybe getting up to some interesting stuff with her fellow 4th graders, and Bob having no friends for whatever reason. There's room for growth here even within static sitcom timeline, but it just feels like the writers keep spinning their wheels.
>the writers insist on keeping the world feeling so small as of late
It's going from cozy to claustrophobic. Like what about all those local chefs from high end restaurant? Skip Maroosh?
Bob being in a culinary magazine?
Season 11 ended with Tina actually realizing she has outgrown the group of kids she usually hang out with. Why not bring back Josh or the semi-goth girl from the hotel episode? Why not put Gene in theater again?
That's why it is kinda surprising to see Chloe Barbash popping up in the movie, to pick that up and cement her as like a nemesis to a general audience.
THANK YOU for bringing up the Season 11 finale. What was the point of introducing Tina's realization that she'd outgrown her "friends" if you're just gonna keep doing the same stories revolving around her trying to fit in with them? "FOMO You Didn't" pissed me off because you could literally use Susmita in more episodes (isn't she a regular on The Great North anyway?).
But my biggest pet peeve is how Bob "has no friends." What made the writers completely drop the fellow restaurateurs around Wonder Wharf? Sure, guys like Reggie aren't FRIENDS in the same sense that Teddy or even Mort are, but Seymour's Bay has a whole untapped community of characters that the writers keep omitting.
>What made the writers completely drop the fellow restaurateurs around Wonder Wharf?
Maybe they're insecure about writing convincing restauranteurs? I don't know, they learn so hard on Bob being an awkward introvert but that humor can't be exploited if Bob never leave his home and interact with weird people in weird social situations.
Tina is just no longer awkward weirdo and instead is a witty and charming girl who could pick up any guy at her school.
to piggyback on this; consider Logan Bush.
Logan had what it took to be a long lasting reoccurring character like Nelson from the simpsons. first episode he showed up and he did something memorable by stealing Louise's ears. he made an impression on both Louise and that episode is memorable because of that. seeing him in the mother daughter laser tag episode only reinforces the idea that this is gonna be a character we're gonna see more of.
The third episode Logan showed up is where things got weird. A solid premise of Logan working at the restaurant and getting into a prank war with Louise is soured by Louise attacking her father and presenting Logan's presence as a moral failing of Bob.
Which is a weird escalation. It goes from Louise and Logan pranking each other to Bob being a bad dad for not considering how Louise would feel about working with Logan.
It ruined the entire mood for Logan episodes for the writers because it shifts the entire dynamic of the first two episodes. It went from Louise being an near equal to Louise being a helpless 9 year old girl being picked on.
It's almost like they dropped the whole "half kid, half Bugs Bunny, idolizes movie villains" aspect Louise had going for her and settled on making her more lighthearted, vulnerable, and innocent instead. It seems like they didn't really understand what they had with the Logan character either.
It's the constant decison to cutoff potential avenue for the show
Bob can't keep his community garden because then Bob would have to interact with more people outside the family.
Linda and Cynthia can't fimd share common ground with having a troublemaking kid that they both love dearly because then they might hang out more often.
And Louise couldn't just start enjoying her prank war with Logan in earnest. No she has to turn this inward and make it about her and her dad so we have Bob giving Louise the power to permanently ban Logan from the restuarant just to ensure Logan never shows up as a regular in the restuarant.
Remember Josh? An attractive boy who genuinely likes Tina and doesn't treat her like trash? Remember how they just decided that the mutal attraction he and Tina had doesn't exist anymore? It wasn't enough that he and Tina go to a different school and ran in different circles which could explain why we don'tsee him a lot, they had to get rid of the potential of Josh ever showing up again.
Neither character served that much anyways, I don't think they're big losses. Also I feel at least one of these anons is a Logan/Louise shipper who is way too biased.
They can't get over an asthmatic dweeb stealing their waifu (from their older guy self insert).
I self-insert as Louise.
Not a shipper. I like evil-ish Louise and her dynamic with Logan in Ear-sy Rider, but I still think it's really adorable how much she cares about Rudy.
That single scene when it happened seemed so out of character, I was convinced she liked him.
The kiss didn't convince me, the slap did.
Tfw you will never get slapped by Louise.
Off the top of my head, I think she's slapped Linda, Tina, Rudy, Boo-Boo, and Mickey on-screen.
She also slapped a random high scool/college kid in the Chinchilla ep.
She's a Slap-bawd.
HOW CAN SHE SLAP???
Logan was cool, Louise is fun when she has a nemesis that forces her to go all-out evil genius mode.
This. I ship Louigan for funsies but that's only because it was fun to see a 16 year old boy pick a fight with a 9 year old girl and thinking unironically about how finally that little girl met her match.
The chemistry between them was real, a chemistry the show squandered.
Louigan is hot af.
Louwheeze is probably more realistic, especially for a long term thing post-show.
LouiGan is about them having chemistry and meeting their match, not about them fricking.
Louise is FAR from the helpless little girl they made her, and Logan ISN"T the big, bad male bully they made him.
>Logan ISN"T the big, bad male bully they made him.
But he is. Lol. He bullies children who dare walk across a public parking lot.
That's the joke; He is a bully to a 9 year old. He is 16 and his nemesis is a 9 year old girl. The joke is that he is immature, petty and can't get over his one unfought battle.
Louise tattled on him. He lied and said he'd thrown her ears away. She escalated and got white-supremacist meth-heads to threaten his life, within reason. His mother then started to rouse rabble at Louise's family's restaurant and Mudflap having her baby in that moment took all the piss and vinegar out of the room.
Logan's animosity towards Louise is an itch he did not scratch. A pimple he did not pop. A nit he did not pick.
She's 9. He's 7 years her senior and he can't get over it.
Why am I explaining a joke to you, chowder-head? Get bent.
What's wrong with you lmao. Are you Cynthia?
She's the opposite of a bully. She attacks bullies. She protected pocket sized Rudy (not Regular Rudy) and she doesn't even like that dude.
No Louise is a bully. Sometimes she's a bully for good but most of the other time she's just making fun of people and forcing them to do what she wants to do. That's why Louigan works, it's a bully meeting another bully and getting into a bully-off.
Bruh, she's friends with Andy and Ollie, who may well be genuinely moronic. She's never pointed out their disability, or Jimmy Jr's lisp... She mistreats people occasionally, but definitely no bullying.
It's more like sociopathic type behavior (Andy and Ollie forced to count money in the freezer). She mistreats people to gain some sort of result, not for the sheer pleasure of hurting their feelings etc.
If she took over a parking lot, she wouldn't attack people just for walking across. She might set up barricades and charge money to walk through.
>she's friends with Andy and Ollie,
Who she bullies all the fricking time.
>She mistreats people to gain some sort of result,
I like how you think that makes it ok.
IMO, her inconsiderate behavior is sociopathic, not malicious. I think to classify someone as a bully, there has to be INTENT to specifically cause the person suffering.
/ourgirl/ is gonna reach bump limit anyway. Celebrate this monumental victory.
>IMO, her inconsiderate behavior is sociopathic, not malicious. I think to classify someone as a bully, there has to be INTENT to specifically cause the person suffering.
No, you just need to bully them into doing what you want them to do.
A picture of Louise alone is enough to hit 500 posts. What a time to be alive. But unironically, because she's fricking based.
Should've made her bigger on the movie poster if that's the case
>She's the opposite of a bully. She attacks bullies.
>bully: [verb] to treat (someone) in a cruel, insulting, threatening, or aggressive fashion
Sometimes she's a bully, sometimes she's not. Sometimes her target is a fool that deserves it, sometimes it isn't. She's got a humongous heart, but she's also tiny, self-interested, and overly-ambitious so she's prone to using underhanded tactics not limited to bullying.
Love it when she switches to Goblin mode.
Logan is a bully but so is Louise.
I think it's more that they tried to make him more unlikable from being a rude teenager to a teenager that other teemagers hate.
I think people were more okay with it because Louise doesn't seem 9. 9 is ridiculous if you see what grade that is. I'm English and saw it was Year 4 (Rudy is 8 initially, so it's Year 4), and was like "wtf?" because there's no chance they're acting that age.
That's cartoons, farn. Louise is the same age and grade as Lisa Simpson.
Gene is as Bart, too.
What if there was a Simpsons/Bob's Burgers crossover special?
There is. Srs.
>LouiGan is about them having chemistry and meeting their match, not about them fricking.
>not about them fricking
Be a lot cooler if it was
>Neither character served that much anyways
These were characters that could've branch out Bob's burgers. It's a question of Why Not?
Why not have Josh be Tina's boyfriend? Because her chasing Jimmy Jr is comedy gold that will never get old? Why not have Helen start showing up in Teddy's life more often? Because the show is too aftaid of changing the status quo?
Like season 11 has a great Tina episode where she realizes she outgrew her circle of so called friends. It had a lovely message about how Tina will find a group of people who truly appreciates her for her. And what did Tina do in season 12? she tried to hang out with her so called friends even though what they were doing turned out to be dumb and uninteresting to her. WHY? Tina is better then Tammy amd Jimmy Jr. She's more charismatic then Jimmy Jr and Tammy and if anything they should be the one ls trying to impress her.
Andbthe sledding episode serves almost as the end of Logan episodes. Written by the same writer who wrote the ear-sy rider episode. Logan goes from an average punk teen to a unpopular bully hated by every girl in his school while St.Louise has matured from siccing grown ass men on Logan to showing him mercy from high school girls with snowballs. What could have been a dependable reoccuring character to show up when Louise needs it is now a character who only shows up in five episodes.
Or another less noticable instance of Bob's burger driving what could've been a fun character into the ground is Helen. Being a secret maybe murder who treats her non-victim with a graciousness and charm was thrown away to prop up with a scottish woman whose only noticable trait was being scottish.
I'm surprised Skip hasn't made another appearance
I guess they don't have that Kumail Nanjiani money. They got that Paul Rudd money but not that Kumail Nanjiani money.
Ant-man? NBD. Kingo? No no no we got to get a schedule worked out here now.
Nanjiani and Hader just can't make it.
Quit whining!
My biggest movie gripe is Tina going after Jimmy Jr. Frick that mfer. I thought they'd hint at Zeke... TIna's friends are ass.
Bob having no friends makes a lot of sense... Linda is the one to have friends. Bob has always claimed to not like people or talking.
>quit whining
SOMEBODY HAS TO ANON. Somebody has to because it's clear the writers just got too complacent.
No amount of whining from our end will reach the writers' room. They must think they're writing some of the best comedy on television, and they still have a decent-sized following of diehards who'll eat up every new episode and deem it a 10/10 every time. There's no getting to them.
Well it just wouldn't be Cinemaphile if someone isn't whining about a cartoon.
Season 2 had the best episodes. After that, you could pick many episodes from each season which are just as good as each other.
Nah, the general consensus is that the show lost its fire around Season 6 or 7. I still find plenty of the newest episode premises to be creative, but the jokes and timing are a far cry from back when Bob's Burgers was in its heyday.
I know the consensus, but I don't agree with it. I'd say s2 Burgerboss represents what I would like to come back for Bob's persona... And Food Truckin' general edge.
But straight away s8, ceramics room ep, gaga pit, soccer ep, burobu card ep, crazy lady who crushes Louises tricycle ep......
I'm not gonna be a total twat and list every good episode after season 7. But there is a lot I think. I prefer some s8+ eps to some in season 5.
I'm actually rewatching it and currently on season 9, a lot of overall blander and tamer episodes but not as bad as I remember the first time watching it. I think it's better when you know the writers aren't trying to make the show like S1 anymore
>Linda in pigtails
MUH
>twice the class!
I'm not even a big fan of season 1 except a few moments like the child molester scene. But yeah, honestly there's a smattering of good eps in seasons 8 and up.
If they have the right writing prompt, they could definitely make a season 2 type episode again. I don't think they're AGAINST Bob on drugs or Louise burning shit, it just has to be the right circumstance.
You gotta remember, with Jimmy Pesto gone Bob doesn't have a rival to get mad at, he needs a good replacement rival ASAP. Like Mrs. Pesto... But Louise, well, I expect some Carrie-esque humiliation of Chloe Barbash if Chloe doesn't learn to fear the crazy oddball weeb girl.
>Bob and Jimmy Pesto meet each other on vacation and try to rescue Louise, Andy, and Ollie from an erupting volcano
>while Linda, Tina, Gene, and Jimmy Jr take a spa day
Jimmy Pesto's VA is permabanned... They need to get a sound-alike... But to inject new ideas into the series for a season... Pesto's ex wife takes over the restaurant operation and Linda has the exact same relationship with her that Bob had with Jimmy. Little bit of role reversal.
Then the season after, new Pesto VA, once the old voice is a bit more forgotten... I win. ZOOM!
It's pretty heartless and silly to ban Pesto's VA just for going to a protest, even if it's for something they don't agree with. It's not like he did anything violent, illegal, or unconstitutional. I wouldn't ban a VA just for attending a gay pride or abortion protest.
Gotta keep the viewers happy, or your entire show is going in the can. You don't want to let one dude take your entire show and career down with him.
You make it sound like they have absolutely no morals.
Maybe that's why Bob became a shell of his former self. They felt guilty writing a truly moral man that stuck to his principles.
"Morals" has its place in your personal life. A lot of people's careers are currently with this show. To stick to some LL Fool Jay for moral reasons and cause tonnes of people to lose their career (not just yourself), then that's some shit...
>the show definitely would have been canceled because a voice actor for a side character was adjacent to a protest.
Nobody cared that much. Even if they did, you shouldn't give in to that sort of thing. That's a really flimsy excuse for immoral, political virtue signallikng and it sets a bad precedent.
>Not doing a webm of all three of them headbobbing in sync
stop cheating me out of my dopamine
Remember when Tina took over the show for a couple of seasons? Seems like forever ago.
Yep. Tinamania feels like forever ago.
Louise was the obvious intended fan favourite character but it was interesting to see Tina take off completely unexpectedly.
>affectionate Louise
>height difference
God yes that's the stuff.
VS choice of Hairstyle will always be my Hatless Louise design.
This is so wholesome but you also know there's loke several different pornographic versions of this.
Somewhere VS sees that and shouts BUILD THAT PAYWALL!!! and immediately writes the mods to get all that deleted.
Anything but that!
Because I could tell just from the trailer it was going to be Louise the movie, and not about Bob or his burgers.
But it IS about Bob and his burgers.
I guess some people were expecting it to have Bob as the center-piece arc and for him to go on a huge journey and for them to put a dome over the town and for Bob to climb the dome.
DON'T MOCK MY DASHED HOPES
I just went to see it today, pretty fun ride and honestly the songs were nice.
I wish they'd try to get back to the edgy humour of the first few seasons, but I don't know if that's the type of thing you can reverse.
They chose to drop the edgy stuff when they found out the show was popular with kids
Why? It only sped up the decline of the show and allowed major cracks to form in its characterizations and formula. Matt & Trey didn't do that for South Park and the show is far better off for it.
>Why?
I literally said it was because it was popular with kids and families.
> It only sped up the decline of the show
They started changing things like around season 3 and considering how long it's lasted and all the knockoffs it's spawned I'd say it had the opposite effect. If they just stuck to being a Family Guy ripoff they probably would've gotten cancelled.
>I literally said it was because it was popular with kids and families.
But that's not a valid reason to change it, other adult shows like South Park or The Simpsons didn't change just for that.
Didn't the show drop off in popularity after they started changing things around in season 3?
I sort of hate how every Bob's Burgers thread turns into Louise simping? I mean... It's fine. It's okay, but... Maybe... It should stop happening like that?
But she's so adorable 🙂
Hey shit, that's my drawinfrom like sevean ylears ago ya posted. Thanks man. Louis is fufn to draw fat, and also I'm drjnkk. Drunk.
What a crazy ride these last couple years have been amirite Ultrahand?
Well ya know my ego took a hit, I admit it. I was tryin to make a comic for Cinemaphile, for Cinemaphile, right? This palce been my stomipin ground sfor almost eighteen years. But then to see people not eeven ask u tjust mak shit up, yeha I admit it .It hurt. And ir Cinemaphile ain't my audience I don't know ho the frick is.
So I'm kina kinda lost at the moment. Just drawin for me. Canceled all my comission and payin a coupla guys back and shit.
Sorry to hear that UH but always keep on the sunny side of life.
Well ya knwo I thought I had a bea ton what Cinemaphile liked. They like cute girls and shit. And I had one fat but frick comon one there weighg EIGHT, on eof em had to be fat, so what if she's got a huge gut. dealw ith it homosexuals.
I agevi you frickers eveyrthing, ghtose girls coverd the smoargasboard. Fat, thin, fit, endowe. I was pissed. cause I thought I knew, but I guess OI did.t There was a correction that nedec to be made. And only then I wrealized how far outta line I was with ya guys. Felt likehypcorcisy, frickers are jakcin off to acutal porn a anime girls but then you're gonna come at me cause Goldie's 400 lb? frick off, man. So what?
Sorry, lemme kieep tit Bob's Burgers. Louise. She's fun to draw, tha' sall. Sorry.
Funny enough I was always waiting for the movie to provide us deeper cuts about Bob and the rest of the family to talk about.
Shit I don't even think we got a name for Bob's mom.
Did we need to? What we got was plenty.
>What we got was plenty.
No we literally got fricking nothing from the movie like Bob's mom didn't even have a line of dialogue. For a show that is going into it's 13th season with a 14th season already ordered and a 15th season probably guaranteed there's a question of why the frick are you holding back? Why not include more about Bob's mom and his early childhood?
>Why not include more about Bob's mom and his early childhood?
Because Tina's longing for her peers' approval and a barrage of poop jokes are more entertaining.
>Because Tina's longing for her peers' approval
I love it when schools only have like 5 kids in an entire grade.
Looks like Louise's preschool flashback might've originally been more stylized.
Oh that's adorable. Did you guys notice she was reading a manga in the movie too?
What a frickin weeb
I would frick each and every one of those Lindas.
>Shin-chan Bob & Linda
haha cute
That upper right Bob is just hilarious to me for some reason.
I like when Louise gets to act like a villain. I love her dynamic with Andy & Ollie in The Belchies and The Kids Run the Restaurant. Anyone compile a list of episodes like that?
The B&B episode is what you want. Bed Bob and Beyond is it called? That's vengeful Louise at her BEST.
Enjoy.
Thanks anon.
Ayo hold up. "Bed Bob & Beyond" is the one where the kids try to fix Bob & Linda's argument on the drive home from a failed movie theater outing by coming up with the rest of the movie they missed out on and thematically tying it into the parents' argument while also hiding the fact they broke Gene's bed just earlier.
What you're looking for is "Bed & Breakfast."
Ear-sy Rider because even if she was in the right she still went to extremes to get it.
Topsy
Tina Tailor Soldier spy
Flu-ouise
Central Park is kinda boring. I hardly even remember what happened in the Season 2 finale because I'd mentally checked out by that point.
It was not launched iin my country, still wanna piracy the full thing
my sister got me into bobs burgers.
I am no longer on good terms with my sister, so I didn't see it.
My sister is also got me into Bob's Burgers, but I saw it... though without her because she has mental health issues and that day was particularly bad.
>that's what I love about you, all your sad stories.
EACH AND EVERY DAY
I WANT TO FEED, I WANT TO SEED
Hahaha, but seriously. I love the animation during Gene's part. That moment where his head quickly turns to the napkin thingy? Gorgeous.
He needs to just frick Courtney.
What would have happened if Chloe didn't call Louise a b*by? Would Grover's master plan have worked?
Chloe is the real hero of the film.
>Would Grover's master plan have worked?
Yes which means Chloe helped Louise save her family restaurant.
Hard to say. Louise still overheard Bob stressing over possibly losing the restaurant for good, and she's usually pretty headstrong when on a mission to help out a fellow Belcher (Bad Tina, Tina Tailor Soldier Spy, Drumforgiven). But that mounting insecurity caused by Chloe's comment definitely ramped up Louise's drive.
Lol basically yeah
Being a Tina coomer sure isn't easy.
Because adults who watch cartoons do it on the internet.
>no louise solo or even duet in the movie
It sucks. Schaal could pull it off even being a amateurs vocalist.
I haven't really watched this show since the start of S2. So, yeah.
Hmm, this thread has convinced me to give the series another go. I watched like the first few episodes of the first season ages ago, but at the time i didn't care for it. Maybe I'll like it now. good excuse to draw some louise
i kinda wish there is a place to watch it nonstop or a mega of at least the seasons worth a watch
i was probably just gonna use kimcartoon or whatever, doubt id pirate it
>good excuse to draw some louise
are you taking requests?
Been watching all the episodes I missed and it's been fun. It's not making me laugh a lot but it's consistently putting a smile on my face. That and the strong family dynamic is what carries this show by a lot.
Bob's Burgers is like what you'd get if you took King of the Hill and made it boring for adults, not just children.
I did. I went with my girlfriend since we both love Bob's Burgers. We had a great time.
She dumped me 2 weeks later. 🙁
I'm sorry anon. Did she say why?
I bet she had the hots for Bob.
Whose phone is Louise even using? She doesn’t own a phone
I think it's a landline phone.
Because I have a toddler and streaming exists. The cycle from box office to hime means no FOMO
the artstyle and voices of this show do not appeal to me.
Have you actually sat down and watched a full episode? You're missing out. The show looks great, and the movie looks even better. The voice acting's also top-notch, but it's understandable if the teenage daughter's voice takes some getting used to.
she had a movie?
Yes and she's going to 500 posts where she belongs.
Alpha.
crime hole
>Gene...
this thread is still up?
come on, were tired
shes been wearing the hat for how long?
and never takes it off?
imagine the smell
Wasn't it even mentioned in the show exactly like that? Could have sworn Logan talked about that.
Homer said it best himself in his movie, why would I pay for a movie for something I could get for free at home.
I had an episode idea.

1/2
In the second part it turns out he was rendered mute when he was throat punched and beaten by the members of the yacht club. That's after he learned about some of the shady dealings the members were getting into, then Jimmy threated to go public with them (if they didn't let him join). After beating him and unintentionally rendering him mute, they threatened his family in the event Jimmy blabs.
Jimmy and Bob resolving this, exposing the yacht club for their crimes, and learning where to go from there is the B-plot to Louise running Jimmy's pizzeria in his stead.
2/2
Yes and then he gets a new VA with a similar voice. Excellent episode idea.
No, he stays a mute for the rest of the series.
See, this chart (of unspecified origin) clearly shows that the movie's screentime was primarily split between Louise and Linda, with Bob, Tina and Gene pulling up the rear.
I'm actually shocked Teddy was as contained as he was.

FATALITY.
(Mabel is also best girl).
This list is fricking disgusting. Louise is a cute, charming character, but why are r34 artists like this?
Because lewding cute and charming characters is fun.
Cute and funny bunny
This list is fricking based. Louise is a cute, charming character, why is she so sexy?
Good taste.

Theaters are dead, anon.
I've subverted their expectation of me giving them money and pirated the movie instead
Why not both? They deserve my money IMO, they actually care about their show, and I've had lots of entertainment from them.
I'd pay specifically because most other long running cartoons on TV right now are soulless money grabs.
