Not even bad in a good way
Am I Missing Something?
A Disappointing Continuation
.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
View MoreThe sad thing is, this still isn't the absolute worst show I've ever seen. This is still repulsive, though. This is EASILY among the worst garbage Cartoon Network ever pumped out. (Before you say anything, Adult Swim IS a programming block on Cartoon Network, making it's original shows Cartoon Network shows as well.)First, THE ANIMATION. Good god, why? I think they used Microsoft Paint for it, it's THAT horrendous. And the voice acting... had even less effort put into it, if that is even possible. I mean, it sounds like the people are drunk off their a$$! (Wait, they probably are).However, I also will look underneath that surface and at the story. Still crud. The humor.... is anti-humor at BEST. Like the office scene in the pilot. The joke was the ticking clock, which made no sense.And the big issue besides the animation... why does it exist? It's humor fails to be... anything, really. From the voice to the animation to the "humor" (there are big awkward silences too, like they expect this awkward dialogue to bring any reaction from fans), I don't understand WHY this bile is good in the slightest.In the end, I appreciate the story, but EVERYTHING else in the show is trash.It's sad. If this garbage was made on the internet, people would pan it. Since it's official, though, people claim it's deep... why....EDIT:Increased rating from 2 stars to 3.5 stars.
View MoreYou want to understand it, the random things happening around you, compelling you to search for the meaning, but you don't get to. There was the job, and the cheese. What happened to all those music notes? Lorenzini? Why does that clock not tick sometimes? Has time been stopped? It has? 2:22? The shark was just a pawn? Who is the square? Are they in a lab? Mouse is attached to a machine? Does the cop just let all of this happen because he is high? Or is that a cigarette? Is the television fuzz gibberish guy going to come back to life? Why is the eye tired of the time? The time gas? Were the meat wars in space? Who fought in the meat wars? Why are there so many questions and not any answers? It's over now and there's not going to be any more. My suggestion is that you just take a walk. There are lots of things outside, and you could look at any of them, or all of them, a - l - l.
View MoreI've looked around the internet and this show has been bashed too many times to count. Most people find it unfunny, confusing and poorly drawn but they are wrong. The reason for it to be poorly drawn is because you're seeing it through Fitz's prospective. The reason everyone talks in half sentences that seem to make no sense (but in often case do if you've seen all the 12 Oz Mouse episodes because one thing connects to another) is because everyone on the show is wasted. This show is only funny for people who can see its big picture and understand the type of world that Fitz lives in. So buy the ticket and take the ride, and let the weirdness fulfill you.
View MoreI know it's long, but i swear at the end it will all make more sense.The show at first gives you an impression that it is useless shite the creators of adult swim would pump out just to show you they they can make people watch anything.. its poorly drawn and animated, and the scripts seem so random and unplanned that it isn't even worth being on TV.... but the more that I see the more I think that the insane rambling in the early episodes were important clues to the shows TRUE plot. the show seems like the mouse simply does odd jobs for beer. As the show progresses he meets new people like a pink cube with glasses that talks as if he's superior to everyone, a cop who sounds and acts like he is constantly stoned, a man with crazy nightmarish waving blond hair along with his giant spider comrade (his character grows giant corn-dogs) , mouse has always gotten in giant gunfights at random, but just recently we discovered that the annoying loud feminist is actually a robot, in another episode the pink cube and the shark "prez" dude talk about the "forms" they chose, the cube spouting about his 4 great points, and the shark about one of his own traits(i cant remember), the man growing the corn-dogs talked about "Arachnid Xenomorphication" with mouse(as if they were old comrades) to which the corn dog growing man replied "and thats where the dog went" this brought to my mind that his spider companion had behaviors similar to that of a dog, the blond man went on to talk about how he grows his corn-dogs, and how they were able to "send through" some kind of "fibers" they may hint towards their purpose but i cant remember the specifics, the mouse then said something about how "that" was the reason we built that robots , then the mouse went to look for a golden locket shaped just like his squirrily screeching friend which was stolen in an earlier episode, then it showed the man who stole it trading it with a freakish demon thing for gold, the demon ate it and began destroying the city, mouse asked what it was the shop owner replied by stating "thats what kills us.. thats what kills us all" the mouse then says something along the lines of: "then lets go kill it back".. All of this information leads me to believe that the people in the cardboard village weren't originally in the forms they now have, the blond creepy man is somehow related in mouses return to "normal" whatever that is. I believe the screeching mouse has a larger role later and I'm pretty sure the ending to the series will blow my mind, this show is insane but thats why i love it, and if the show really IS linking together in a significant way then it could very well land itself up as one of my favorite series.
