Update Blog - 4/11/20 (Patreon)

Looks like Easter came a little early for me :P Got an egg and it hatched a digital movie for me to review. I wasn't expecting to do it this week...but I can't say no to an opportunity like that! Admittedly, it was a pretty unexpected Easter week for me, but at least the surprises that came in are good.

- Created & Released my review of Trolls World Tour: So before I get into this, allow me to answer the big question: How did I even manage to have enough time to watch it and make a complete review before it was even released in the first place? Well that's because, before getting started on another project, a friend of mine contacted me that they got it early (since there were places like the UK that got the digital version on Monday instead of Friday). Since he had it on a sharable file, he asked me if I wanted it? Thinking about the opportunity it can have to release my review earlier than planned, I jumped into the opportunity and said yes (I forgot to ask him if this was pirated or not, but I trust him he got it the legit way). Anyways, as for this movie itself, I'll give it that it's a slight improvement from before. Not much because it is a rather forgettable movie, but I'd take this over the original. That and I can't deny the animation is fantastic. I might sound crazy, but it's near Spider-Verse level in terms of the creativity and the variety of styles that were used. As a digital rental, I think $20 is a bit much. Like, if it were only $5 just for that 48-hour rent, then I think this is something animation fans should look to see the animation alone. It ain't DreamWorks best, but I've definitely sat through worse.

- Starting a new Editorial: Okay, so THIS was what I originally wanted to do this week before I got that early pass for that world tour. It's one of those videos like with the Top 5 recently that it's been quite a while since I've made one and after my rounds of making ALWDAS+ parts, it's time I get to do an idea I've wanted to try out for a looooong time! At this point though, since a lot of my time this week was swiped from Trolls, the only things I've done was develop the opening (which I have big plans to start off with a bang) and did the research since I know there's a lot of material to go around to tell this wild story. Don't worry, there won't be other weird surprises like Trolls happening anytime soon, so it's safe to say that I can finally get into this project and learn about what the fridge happened to something that was quite infamous.

- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $25+/MONTH: I will have my first episode of the Super Secret Patreon Exclusive Q&A Show ready and released for Monday the 20th. If you have a question you'd like me to answer for the show, message me and mention that it's for the Secret Q&A Show.

- REMINDER FOR PATRONS $50+/MONTH: This month's Discord Chat will be happening on Thursday the 16th, and Sunday the 19th and both at 2pm EST. Let me know if you're not available for either so I'll organize a quick chat.

There is also the Hop review that I just put out as a preview on Patreon, but since I'm releasing it on YouTuber on Easter Sunday, I'll save that piece for next week. Anyways, hope you all have a happy Easter, a happy Passover and remember to wash your hands. So until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
