Unikitty Premier Episode? Review


Well then guys when The Lego Movie came out i quickly became a fan and when The Lego Batman Movie came out i was even more of a fan and now Cartoon Network has made a TV series out of the character Unikitty and i'm going to let you all know right now my thoughts will be based on the premier episode alone so here we go.


The plot of this episode finds Unikitty , her brother Puppycorn , Hawkodile and Dr. Fox who are all friends getting trapped in a game and they have to complete the game in order to escape. That little character introduction i gave you is way more then what the episode gave us which makes me wonder if this was intended to air later in the series run but in terms of story it actually reminded me of the Jumanji cartoon.


This episode and the series stars Tara Strong who's replacing Alison Brie from The Lego Movie , Grey Griffin , Roger Craig Smith and the girl who's everywhere right now Kate Micucci. In all honesty the voice acting isn't that bad in this episode altho i think that Tara Strong modeled her voice after the voice of Pinkie Pie just because there are scenes where she sounds so much like Pinkie Pie. I can't really judge the acting until i've seen a handful of episodes but based of this episode and who's acting in it i'm going to say the acting will be the best thing in the show.

I'll admit that the jump from CGI to what i think is Flash animation is quite jarring at first but for me personally it took me maybe three maybe even four minuets to move past that but i have to say the animation in this episode only was just ok it's not anything to write home about but at the same time it's not as bad as say Teen Titans Go!. You can tell the animators and the show makers are trying to put out the best show they can.


However one of the things that i didn't like about this episode was the fact i laughed maybe two or three times which for this character isn't that good if anything the jokes they were trying to do felt like jokes that a five year old would find funny like for example a character falls over twice in slow motion and that's the joke to me that's not funny that's just showing that you can use slow motion and that's it.

The other thing that i hated about this episode was the fact that it goes against the continuity of The Lego Movie there's no mention of Unikitty being a master builder nore do they even reference that fact. In The Lego movie she doesn't mention having a brother or friends and yet here they both are in this episode.


Overall this episode was just ok and if i were to just base my opinions just of this episode and this episode alone i'd say that this show needs alot of work but you all know me i'm willing to give anything a chance and with that in mind i;m giving this episode a 5 out of 10.



  




Micheal Jackson's Halloween Review


Cartoon fans i'm here today to bring you a review of something i never knew was a thing until i went online this morning and yeah it's pretty bad so here is my review of Micheal Jackson's Halloween enjoy.


What is the plot of this CBS special i here well Vincent (Lucas Till) and Victoria (Kiersey Clemons) meet "accidentally" on Halloween night and find themselves along with Ichabod the dog at a mysterious hotel located at 777 Jackson Street called This Place Hotel. Once inside Vincent and Victoria are sent on an unexpected magical adventure of personal discovery culminating in a spectacular dance finale featuring an animated Michael Jackson.Yes this is really the plot of this special even reading it of IMDB and it still makes no sense the movie doesn't explain why Micheal is even there he just shows up the whole plot makes no sense at all.


The special features the voice talents of Micheal Jackson , Brad Garrett , Lucas Till , Kiersey Clemons , Lucy Liu , Jim Parsons , Alan Cumming and Diedrich Bader. The cast in this film do the best they can with what they have and that's truly the best thing i can say about the cast which is a shame because alot of these actors we all know can turn in a good performance.

For some reason this special thinks that because it's animated Bubbles the chimp can now talk i have nothing to say on the subject i just wanted to let you all know that Micheal's beloved chimp in real life can now talk thanks to this special make of it what you will.


I will give the film this however the animation for a TV special is pretty good i can't imagine the budget was that big to begin with so given the budget they had i'm shocked that the animation wasn't awful i was expecting it to be almost as bad as a certain Sony Pictures movie which came out this year which i shall never ever speak the name of.

All is not that good tho in the animation field tho since there are times where the main characters just look like plastic dolls and the same goes for Micheal himself which is a real shame because his name is in the title but i do have to say that Lucy Liu's character looks hot as hell.


I would very much like to comment on the music except all of the music was Micheal Jackson songs and not all of them make sense for some reason they use Smooth Criminal in the opening for no reason what so ever and for some reason reason the finale features our heroes dancing and singing to Thriller again for no reason what so ever.


Overall i'd say that if you really like Micheal Jackson then chances are you've already seen this special but for me this special gets a 5 out of 10.
