This series never dissapoints
Whenever an idiot breaks into song in a cartoon, it's really hit or miss. This was pretty damn good. I always love the conversations between Blockhead and the Conscience and I was laughing most of the way through. Nice touch with the alien joke at the very end. Ten out of ten and my continuing devotion to this series.
The biggest problem I had with writing the song was that I had to keep Blockhead from sounding too intelligent. It's not just about basing it on an inane concept, but using a limited vocabulary for a character that can "barely form a coherent sentence". I can't rhyme for crap, so this was especially difficult!
And I'm thankful for your undying loyalty :D
Disturbing, yet hilarious
And a Merry Ghostmas to you as well, Michael!
This is a great animation, I never knew you had such a good singing voice. I'm almost tempted to go out and throw pumpkins at people's houses / cars / property myself, but since it's getting late, I won't bother... Next year, however...
The animation is awesome (I personally loved the death of the conscience again) and the concept is completely off the wall and once again, I'm running out of superlatives to describe how good this series really is.
I love the way that he gets around problems with life by simply being too dense to grasp the concept - something I occasionally wish I had
The one problem with this episode must be that by the sound of it, you have merged Halowe'en and Xmas, so does this leave us bereft of a Blockhead Xmas bonanza?
I am pretty certain that Blockhead will be back for Christmas, and I've got a decent direction to go with the episode if he does. I just hope that when I read this review in January, I can look back and see that I was right!
The Conscience "death" was just a little flavor I threw in there for the heck of it; it didn't seem forced this time because I wasn't using it to resolve a problem. At least that's how I see it.
Also, I don't know about my singing voice, but I'll tell Blockhead you thought his was swell :D Though it's much easier to sing to a song you've written yourself, since I had my own vocals in mind when I wrote the sucker.
Excellent as always.
Brilliant expansion on the series, the animation is a lot smoother than your previous one, keep up the good work, Michael. =D
WOOT!!!
MERRY GHOSTMAS!!!!!Your best yet,Mr.Swain!
This had everything!
An outstanding effort for halloween; especially given the time you did it in. Power animating indeed! And the song was quite clever too, but the highlight had to be the face he pulled on the family.
Merry Ghostmas!
