Update Blog - 7/6/19 (Patreon)

I'm sure it was quite a week for North Americans (like me). We got our national holidays done and we're completely filled with BBQs and fireworks and whatever patriotism of where we're form. Now we can just get that out of our system and enjoy the rest of summer. But first, let me get my week out of my system.  

- Released my review of Office Space: If you have seen this one, then you know this wasn't just a regular review. I decided to take the extra mile to make a complete satire on modern reviews you find on YouTube that try more than be just a review. As many have noticed, they were primarily poking fun at the recent episodes of the Nostalgia Critic. In fact, my main inspiration for this idea was his disastrous Mary Poppins Returns review and how his sketches, his storylines, his addition of actors and "special effects" make the quality much worse than if it were simple and straightforward. On my part, I really am happy with the way I incorporated all the AniMats and at the end when they're all together and simultaneously say, "WE'RE PREPARING FOR THE REVIEW!" It was definitely a fun one to create and I'm happy to see that it got great reception from viewers...Oh, and the movie was good too :P

- Released my review of The Point!: This was another review that I just went completely blind going in. It was my first time hearing about this and I am unfamiliar with Harry Nilsson's works outside of that Lime in the Coconut song. What I ended up with is a movie that's kind of like a mix of Yellow Submarine and Alice in Wonderland. Of course, not necessarily the best and it's obvious how it was VERY budgeted, but I will admit that it did have a bit of charm and some substance with the imagination put in along with the musical numbers that can also function as their own music video for the album it's based on. Personally, I prefer Yellow Submarine, but I will give it that it's not a bad attempt of an animated film. But now that I got that done, the next one will be something that we are all familiar with and that is, of course, The Lion King, and just in time for the remake to come out (which this review should be released the week after the review of the remake).

- Recorded & Edited the upcoming Top 10: Throughout the week, after finishing up the script, I went to work putting everything together for the next Top 10. As this one isn't all that complicated, I recorded all my lines and the hardest part was finding all the right clips for this. As it is one of the less-serious kind of Top 10s, it allowed me to be a lot more loose and have more fun with it. No need to worry about what people might thing if I put this here or there because the idea of this list is dumb, so why not make the most of it and go wild with everything. I will say that I was super lucky that I ordered something for this list and it came at the perfect time for me to finish everything up and now it's all set to have this be not a Top 10 list, but an enjoyable ride.

- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $50+/MONTH: This month's Discord Chat will be happening on Thursday the 11th, and Sunday the 14th and both at 2pm EST. Let me know if you're not available for either so I'll organize a quick chat. Also, I'll be prepared to have it so that the webcams can function during the chats as well. I'm sure there is a way!

And that's all I have to say for this week. Now that the summer heat is on and we don't have to go crazy on any parties, I'm gonna have my sun time and take a swim to cool down afterwards, so until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
