I’m enjoying the SSBU sequel thread, but at the same time it’s reminding me how glad I am that real games have directors and aren’t democratic affairs.

Would you rather watch Ratatouille 2 times in a row, or 4 hours worth of Ratatouille video essays?
One time someone got grey-ish blue paint all over my Sunday best.
I was livid.
World of Light All Cutscenes HD
This cheesy 80s Yorkshire accented puppet bird’s song is genuinely the most emotionally devastating thing I’ve heard, I’m legit crying.
Omegas are an extremely cool concept on paper, but TBH Legacy TE did it better.
40s cartoons: “It sure would be funny if ANIMAL loved FOOD SAID ANIMAL DOESN’T EAT, wouldn’t it?
81 years of reruns later
“What do you mean ANIMAL doesn’t eat FOOD SAID ANIMAL DOESN’T EAT?”
Early Pac-Man merchandise has a chaotic, unsettling energy. I am not exaggerating as a joke, I am serious. This stuff looks like the work of a malicious god.
YOOOO KIRBY ATE MARG
Bri’ish people be like adverTISments
MatPat has only ever made two good theories: the Kingdom Hearts 3 Frozen theory, and the Chuck E, Cheese pizza... uh, not really a theory, more just a known fact people are too stupid to look up or trust. Still good on the basis of making said information more easily accessible.
Notice how both of those are out-universe speculation. Maybe Patrick should change his focus?
Vigilante moderators are so annoying.
When you hire Scooby Doo to name your cartoon-disguised-as-an-anime
Headcanon: the Fire Emblem characters are a medieval mafia who bribe and threaten their way into getting more Smash reps.
They are also the reason the iteration of Link gets “swapped out” every two instalments. Don’t use camera mods on the second phase of Castle Siege.
Do you ever see someone post a really bad take that would only hold any weight on a school playground- then check their account, find out they’re older than you and just feel super second-hand embarrassed for them?
Why does almost every adult cartoon have an alcoholic father as a protagonist?
I see game accuracy as a bonus when it comes to Smash movesets, not a requirement. The main focus should be playing well as a fighting game character, otherwise you end up with Belmonts.
Remember when you could just show everyone a random image, demoscene song or cartoon clip, say “hey guys, new meme!” and it’d take off?
I think the stupidest video game fan concept I’ve ever heard is “open world Sonic”.
I’m watching this SpongeBob theory about how the show is supposedly a nature show in-universe, and pretty much every point they make can be countered with “it’s a comedy and that’s the joke.”
Sonic fans: “please, for the love of god, stop appealing to nostalgia! We’ll do anything!”
Angry Birds fans: “please, for the love of god, start appealing to nostalgia! We’ll do anything!”
Why would I want to watch Funee Monkee vs. The Jesus Lizard when I could just watch the true greatest battle movie of all time: SANS and PAPYRUS vs SHREK and DONKEY! Cartoon Fight Club Episode 38
Despite being by the same director, The Iron Giant and The Incredibles have basically the exact opposite message. I’d say I align more with the prior though.
Either way, both are fantastic movies so who cares? There’s plenty of movies I enjoy but disagree with the message of, at the end of the day good filmmaking is most important.
I posted about this a while back and I’m still trying to figure it out

Are they the Animal Crossing equivalent to a Fred Flintstone plushie? Is this SpongeBob Movie rules where the anthro characters turn into a stuffed version of the real thing when they die? Is this a Goofy-Pluto scenario?
I’m watching Caddicarus’ PlayStation magazines video and it’s kinda funny (but also a little miraculous) how the idea of “nerd” and “cool” have swapped over the past 2 decades and 1 year. An obsession with “hot babes” meant you were a real “bloke” in the ‘00s, but now it just means you’re gross. Liking media with cute characters meant you were a “nerd who still wets their pants” in the 00s, now you’re considered a nerd for only liking things with blood, guts and angry eyebrows.
I don’t get why people’s hypothetical Crash Smash stages tend to involve crates so much, I feel they’re a better fit for items.
Oh yes autocorrect, I absolutely meant “Bourse” when I spelled “Hourse”
I had a weird dream where I went to a shopping centre and saw the following:
A shop for Grubhub. Yes, a physical shop for a company that only delivers other companies’ food.
Grubhub had changed their advert in the dream verse, now it was this horrific Ren and Stimpy esque animation of sperm cells with rat heads.
I went to Poundland and saw woollen novelty masks (like those rubber Trump or horse masks you get, but made of wool) of three characters: Cranky Kong, Vivian (from Paper Mario) and Penta Penguin. The Cranky mask was particularly horrifying.
The shopping centre was rethemed to promote Wreck-It Ralph 3, there was a contest to find a secret Pac-Man cameo in the non existent film, I didn’t win the contest because I assumed pretty much any circle or curve with a dent to be Pac-Man.
I’ve been reading up on this “Vegan Teacher” person and... wow. If PETA was the real life version of a parody from the Simpsons, she’s the real life version of a parody from South Park. Willing to risk human lives for the sake of animals... Don’t even get me started on her poor dog.
I’m not one for gritty or older-skewering reboots, but a proper Blue’s Clues detective movie would be a ton of fun. It’d still be aimed at kids, albeit slightly older kids. (like the Dora movie beforehand) So many of the staples of Blue’s Clues would adapt well to a silly whodunnit story - Blue’s non-verbal communication, the skidoo, anonymous letters, so on.
The Virgin RPG silent protagonist vs. the Chad cartoon silent protagonist
I have to wonder why when they made Avatar the Last Airbender, they thought of Nickelodeon as a channel to pitch it to, like even in passing. I get this was before Adventure Time and the popularity boom of serialised animation but surely Disney or CN would be a better fit, right?
The retributive prison system confuses me. “It was so terrible that he kidnapped and tortured all those people - he should be locked up for 20 years, isolated from his friends and family, and forced to work in the hot sun!”
Now I think about it, does Infinity War even qualify as a crossover? They’re all from the same franchise and universe as is.
People in the 90s could get like 3000 hours out of Diddy Kong Racing and I can barely get 3 hours out of a full £50 AAA release.
Can’t wait for Growing Around to come out and have the same legacy as CatDog before it: as “that show where they didn’t think about the logistic implications of the premise”
Everyone’s favourite Pac-Man side character: RAT

Subscription services are OK, VC is better, but ultimately I think the best option for rereleasing classic games is compilations - Mostly because they encourage players to try lesser known games by design.
The idea of a second Namco arcade rep in Smash is slept on I feel. Pac-Man only really uses elements from his own games; Mappy and Galaga, there’s plenty of other games in the Namco Museum that could be taken from, be it for a non-clone Ms. Pac-Man/Ghost Gang or a specific rep like Taizo, Valkyrie or Mappy.
If Shadow Mario was a Mario echo his alts should have the colours of the Koopalings -
