Oh Hey Nick Offerman, sup?

So that Wendy transitioning from a love interest to a boon companion, hope she finds a nice one after RobbieIts a pleasant development .

Strange, my DVR only recorded the first episode and says the second isn't until Friday--except on Disney XD, where it premieres Monday.

>>229029

Kind of okay with them just focusing on just having fun or adventuring, rather than getting all anxious over who is paired with who. Like what they've done over in Korra after all the tiresome relationship drama from the first two seasons has ended.

>>229033
Though they did have that twist there that Dipper being there means a lot to her that he's something closer than she has with the others.I mean I expected her to shrug it off a bit but not to real talk with some deep feelings that go into another type of love Disney has been playing with those a lot lately in their media.

>>229036
Hey she is the one who said it, so which mystery fluids fill that mouth?

Yeah, but with Korra I think it was just a mess, Gravity Falls on the other hand I think has been trying to show little boys what a healthy relationship with women means.

The Wendy that winks all sexy at you isn't real, the one that you can trust is.

It's one thing to destroy an unhealthy relationship out of a desire to protect someone you love, it's another to destroy it so you can have the unhealthy relationship.

I think Avatar was just trying to emulate Buffy/Whedon style friends where everyone is with everyone before they realized it was awful and gave up and I think Adventure Time has been TRYING to go the road of showing how you treat girls but the results have been nothing more than TERRIBLE whereas Gravity Falls has been one of the few shows to stick the landing so to speak

>>229038
Just like life, takes a few tries to get it right.

But yea I know where all this is coming from. She feels strongly for Dipper as someone she can depend on and be herself around. Will that change when they are older, who knows since its part of growing up. I like that seems to be a good message there. Similar to Fosters, makes sense given what Frankie and Wendy represent, though second is mostly just rumor, I think.

Solid first two episodes. I didn't find Scare-oke that funny, but then the zombies happened and jesus christ. Into the Bunker was golden from start to finish, though. That pre-title gag.

I like this Disney is supportive and constructive. While Nick is like EA distant and unattached to anything that doesn't survive on its own. Hence this show working here when it likely would have just died on Nick.

>>229095

Christ, imagine if Disney had gotten its hands on Avatar.

>>229096
They would have made it work probably seen the potential and oversaw that things were done to the fullest, not just left it to its own devices, or at least this current Disney would have.

>>229097

Probably would have gotten them a comic series printed by Marvel as well, and a section at their themeparks. Not that the Dark Horse comics aren't great (they're getting increasingly better), it's just that if they were printed by Marvel they'd get a wee bit more exposure.

>>229037
>which mystery fluids fill that mouth?

I'm guessing, and this is just a guess here, but if I had to guess, my guess would be saliva.

>>229103

Toothpaste can make teeth do that too. Certain brands of it anyways.

>>229119

The evils of Fluoride, be funny that old piece of paranoia made it in.

Considering the theme of the season seems to be "nothing is the same anymore", what with the Stan reveal and the Wendy thing getting gently put a stop to, who else thinks that the next ep will have Mabel and Pacifica actually ending up on somewhat good terms?

What with Alec Hirsch saying that she was going to get more development in this season (and her dad's being played by Nathan Fillon for some reason).

Oh, and Jon Stewart gave the show a shout out on the Daily Show a couple of days ago, which was pretty neat. Hm, I wonder if he was turned onto the show by John Oliver, who similarly had a shout-out when the voice actress who plays Wendy was a guest last summer...

>>229177
John Oliver was ON the show, he was wax Sherlock Holmes.

>>229177
Uh, Kristen Schall is a recurring contributor to the Daily Show. Also, Jon Stewart has cartoon watching kids, and is a nerd.

>>229179
>Also, Jon Stewart has cartoon watching kids, and is a nerd.
Yeah, he's also made references to Phineas and Ferb and before. I'm sure having Kristen Schall on regularly helps, but I'll bet he would've known about it either way.

>>229629
At first I was :)

Then I was >:(

>>229629
This wasn't your best idea Jumpman. I'm sure /pco/ would like it though.

>>229652
Didn't make it. Just found and shared.

>>229728
Get out.

>>229728
Wow.
I would not call that short!

>>229659
I meant is was a bad idea to post it here instead of /pco/.

>>229728
Simon's fine and all, but I hate grimdark comics like this.

>>229728

Very cool, thanks for sharing it. I'm not into the whole romantic shipping with GF, but the creepy stuff was really great.

>>229730
>>229755

Look at these fuckin' babies.

Well, Sock Opera was great. It does seem that they're trying to "correct" common complaints with the first season.

Like, Stan not knowing about the paranormal stuff in the first episode, the whole Wendy/Dipper thing in the second, Pacifica getting some characte development in the third etc.

>>229963
Well Disney likes the show and wants it to be a success so they sat down with Production and discussed what plot lines didn't work and where things should be going.

>>229965
Glad they decided to drop the generic plot lines using trope reversion.
Wendy and Pacifica now have opportunity to be characters with more relevance and depth.

>>229968
I like Wendy and the direction that last bit went with her. That was a surprisingly real conversation she had about how much it means that Dipper is her friend.

Remarkable episode.

This episode was incredible.

Each episode seems to be great so far!

They are doing a good job at getting back to what Disney asked and dispensing with what they didn't like. Though I think the way Wendy was handled made it more important than if would have been continuing with the crush.

Also I wonder if Fear of Animatronic Pizzeria animals is a common thing. I knew I had that back in the day peaking under the curtains when they were inactive.

>>230117
I always hated them. I hated how dumb they looked. I hated the voices they had. And I hated how they moved and blinked their enormous lash drenched eyes.

The stuff they're getting away with is facinating. Having a kids pizzaria named "Hoo-Ha's" (euphemism for a woman's breasts, and parody on Hooter's restaurants), and the levels of intermittent violence shown throughout this season surprised me considering it's coming from Disney. I'm half expecting a menstruation joke to pop up somewhere in a similar vein to the throwaway line about Dipper's 'creepy' internet history...

>>230139
>>230140
Or the "her dad is an octopus man" line.

>>230139
The "no, he is not there" line from Soos' grandma floored me.

>>230149

what if that referred to the fact that he's still alive, and is Stan?

>>230161
Seems like a bit of a stretch.
I think I prefer it as a subtle dark joke.

>>230161

If we're doing that then Wendy's a werewolf. No, no hear me out. They build up the 'Rob Zombie' angle with Robbie, only to flip the script (as Soos would say) and do a Wendy werewolf reveal. It'd be the perfect opportunity to put the menstruation joke in... I can see it now: an Dipper tells an uncharacteristically subdued Mabel that it's finally that time of the month, prompting Mabel to muse that the bond between twins is downright uncanny. Dipper looks puzzled and explains he's been reading up on werewolves and tonight's a full moon. Then again, juxtaposing one girl's monthly cycle with another's bout with lycanthropy might be a whole new level of tastelessness.

Okay, yeah. That storyline might be the worst idea ever.

//youtube.com/watch?v=qdbCNXMRHmo

That is a pretty good anime style right there.

>>230510
Ugh, why is English dubbing always such shit? Original seiyuus were so much better.

>>230514
Better than the sub, Mine scene made no sense with that.

//youtube.com/watch?v=N2-g5Cc_0KE

Approved by Alex himself.

>>230910
Someone's going to shoop that as her holding a pregnancy test showing positive in approximately 3.. 2...

>>230952

I...I'm pretty sure that the pic is actually a parody of that meme.

>>230953
That's exactly what it is.

>>230953
I.. Um, actually wasn't aware there was a meme...

Gravity Falls is now linked to Rick & Morty.

LET THE CROSSOVER FANART COMMENCE

>>231078
Do you have proof of it?

So that's one more recurring symbol explained

>>231081
I didn't believe this so I went and checked the Rick and Morty episode.

It's real.

I really have no idea what to think about this.

>>231124
>I really have no idea what to think about this.
I would say to think of it less as "SHARED MULTIVERSE CONFIRMED" and more as "Someone at Gravity Falls, perhaps Alex Hirsch himself, likes Rick and Morty and wanted to do a shout out to it."

>>231124

All you need to think about is this: somewhere in the Gravity Falls universe, there is a Rick and Morty.

>>231125

Justin Roiland does a voice on GF, too, if I recall.

Aw, well that was both incredibly bittersweet. A lot of story for 22 minutes too.

Wow, they are really burning their bridges with Dipper's Wendy crush. I'm impressed.

>>231125
A fair idea, but then you have to question why a "?" mug, a notebook, and a pen just randomly popped out of a portal in Rick and Morty.
I think it was planned between them. Maybe not to link the series exactly, but more like a fun Easter Egg, and at the very most a hint that Stan is working on a multiverse portal

>>231431

Ah, but they're doing it in a way that shows kids not to be jerks when it comes to relationships when they're older. Like, just because you like a person, doesn't mean that if you pursue them constantly that they'll change their minds, when really all you're doing is making them uncomfortable.

Sound advice, like the season one episode where Dipper breaks up Wendy and Robbie's relationship... which he was doing less because he's potentially mindcontrolling her, and more because he wants her to himself without taking her feelings into consideration.

>>231662
>God is punishing us for having terrible taste in everything!

>fingerless gloves look cool.
>no they don't.

>>231662
Oh sweet, the site got the episode early. If you've got a player, you can even watch on the TV in HD!

>The approval of youth is overrated. Being feared by them is much better.
Words to live by, Stan.

...I know that the show's got a thing with sometimes not giving a clear message... but Mabel's actions were kind of messed up this episode.

I mean, the episode was still great, but still kinda messed up there.

>>231704
Mabel is ambitious to the point of being unhinged. I think that is going to cause some major problem later.

>>231705

She also doesn't seem to remember previous episodes very well. Since when was she responsible for getting Melody and Soos together?

>>231712
To her mind by advising Soos to get Giffany she caused them to meet, which isn't exactly wrong.

>>231713

I feel Mabel seeing herself in the wrong at some point will lead her to being used by certain forces.

>The Love God censorship

Well that's depressing, really shows Alex is cool though.

>>232069
What was clipped?

>>232071
The little old interracial couple was originally going to be the little old lesbian couple.

>>232074
Dammit Disney, one step forward and then a stumble and crash down the stairs backward, this from the company that has been on the religious shit list for decades with Gay Day. And now CN is in the lead on this. They'll crush it if they revisit their most popular ship and actually allow it to get finalized.

But that does make more sense now seeing those dolls Mabel was pairing. There is some Irony in that the Interracial Couple is now accepted and the Gay Rep is still mainly taboo.

>>232074
I could see the joke also going with Blubs and Durland getting dosed and nothing really happening. That is a real shame as they indeed are adorable.

The worst part is that apparently the executives are now alright for gay couples for American audiences, but the problem is Russia and China. Including on-screen explicit homosexuality, no matter how tame, means not only giving up those foreign markets altogether for the show, but actually risking getting the whole channel pulled.

Social progress and media representation is being held back by backwards-ass countries all the way on the other side of the planet and there's basically nothing anyone can do about it.

>>232097

Make sense, wasn't there an Adventure Time episode that was censored in Australia due to their similarly stupid rules regarding that kinda thing? It was the episode with the Door Lord, though I've heard but that it was censored and that it was merely delayed. Not sure which is true.

>>232097
Guess Anime must be slim pickings in those areas.

Disney is the only one that I think has a Network presence in other countries with Cartoon Network, Nick and Hasbro programs being internationally syndicated (part of why Hub wasn't that much a loss for them) So I guess in the long run Disney could fall behind if things due pick up with the other networks in that department.

>>232111
Wait Marcie's song that kicked off the whole P.B. Marcie thing?

I remember some retail chain in Australia featuring a same sex couple. Some group threw a fit and the chain responded with more same sex pairing in their next catalog.

Considering the same episode implied the Love God, Tyler, and some random woman had a three-way and smoked pot in the back of a van, this is kind of ridiculous.

>>232121
>the tie-in video that was posted online actually got a guy fired from Federator for "inappropriately" implying they used to date.

That dude probably deserved to get fired. He took subtext and basically went "LESBIANS! LOOK, LESBIANS! EVERYONE, GET YOUR DICKS OUT, WE HAVE LESBIANS TO WATCH WHILE MASTURBATING!"

OH, that thing.
I remember how a lot of fans when ballistic about it, and people like the webcomic artist Yamino where pretty vocal about it. I think she's still mad about this and the SIMS-like episode.

>>232097
Russia really is turning into the new Germany, what with their economy and the ensuing state-supported hardcore nationalism, authoritarianism, and imperialistic aspirations. Hopefully we're better prepared this time around.

>>232130
Well Putin is apparently in trouble due to the economy beginning to tank in the past couple of days, so we'll just have to see.

>>232226
It's not like most other shows are getting knew episodes more than a week into December.

It's been mostly two episodes a month so far, so we'll probably get the next episode a week or two into January.

So, Northwest Mansion Noir on february 16. Is Pacifica going to have to sing a song this time?

we're back babe
