The Amazing Digital Circus - Western Isekai that probably will become Hazbin Hotel killer

[Waifu Days]

So I have one issue with the dropped potential of the ending. I'm talking the last 10 minutes or so. I'll put it under a spoiler guard, which is dumb but I am trying not to ruin things for the fans.

Spoiler: What?

So, the characters in the Amazing Circus are not humans trapped, digiatlly implimented there while their bodies lie lifeless in the real wolrd. They are copy/paste jpeg brain scans of people that are still functioning in the real world, totally unaware that these digital copies even exist. This is very close to Alan Moore's twist to his run on Swamp Thing.

This is not a good final reveal, in is more suited as a mid-story reveal. It does not resolve, it recontexrualizes. There is no escape for the characters, they are in their native setting, but with the psyches barrowed from humans. Pomni is Pomni, she might be based on brain scans of Abigail, but she is not directly Abigail. Abigail is living life separately from Pomni. This redefining of goal and character has a lot of potential, just not at the end of a story. It opens up new directions and explorations. This could have been very clever, and queer coded, but I don't think anyone on the production team understood how to use this.

The horror would be more like Frankenstein, the creator created for the sake of the task, totally unaware of a purpose of the creatures continued existance. Purpose, in other world, beyond the initial creatation. Caine has hints of this, but he is also underdeveloped. He strikes me as the sort of "father" that wants to be fun, replacing excitement and pleasure for good parenting.

There is a lot to talk about, sadly, it is mostly ideas not in the final project.

I just had the horrible realization that the entire reason jax is a delivery driver IRL is literally due to the fucking brief bit in episode 2 where he wanted to drive the delivery truck because he thought it was cool till he wasn't satisfied with the horn and decided to give it to his lame friend gangle

I think it's supposed to be symbolism.

It was implied that the big fight Jax had with his mom happened while he was in the passenger seat of her car. IE, she's running his life and he doesn't like the direction they're going and not being in control. In the circus he constantly wants to drive cars or be in the front seat, but something ends up getting in the way. (Silly horn, too miserable after work, etc.) In other words, he wants to "take the wheel" but can't bring himself too. Him becoming a delivery driver IRL symbolizes that he's finally moved past his turbulent relationship with his mother and gained agency in his own life.

Maybe. I might be doing work than Goose did on that one.

 

[Soycast II]

If you go to Goose' thread, his tastes are displayed on the first page. He gets off to balloon animals and characters being mashed together, for example. My perspective on this show is completely tainted now. That motherfucker made kids see his fetishes on the big screen.

How vile. I guess I don’t have a good eye for fetishes other than the obvious.

 

[Sergeant Major Buzzkill]

Atp, since I’m invested in the drama, may as well finish the actual trainwreck as it is. I have ideas.

It's sad that RedLetterMedia will never review TADC, because we'll never get to hear Mike tell us what Star Trek episode it reminds him of.

Because they're in an anime?

 

[Puck Clown]

The movie's been out for 5 days and Glitch has reposted 5 different journalist posts praising the movie on their Twitter (None of which are even worth a screenshot because its the same "DIGITAL CIRCUS MOVIE EARNED LOTS OF MONEY" sentiment repeatedly)

I get being proud of your achievements or whatever, but after a certain point, it starts to come off as a bit arrogant

 

[Tom Arnold Schwarzenigger]

Well, no shit. That's hardly a revelation, the vast majority of cross-dressers are closeted gay or bi-sexual.

However it's still a far cry from being transsexual, which the gay community learned to it's sorrow after allowing trannys into their space only for them to hijack and completely absorb all the tolerance that gays had been working for for decades resulting in the fucked up in-tolerant to all but degenerates world we live in today.

You say this as though Gays, even if being better than troons, are deserving of good treatment, which is false.

Oh my FUCKING GOD COOPER

queer coded,

Pedo nigger detected. Go back

Nigga, didn't he literally say she fell down stairs?

Why are people this stupid, like for real

 

[DrearyDoomguy]

Finally Gangle can... I guess draw diagrams and maybe use her ribbon body as a rope to climb up to hot air balloon.

Gangle would actually be a good "I don't know about this guys..." kind of character who's job it is to highlight the group's intrapersonal conflicts and unspoken sentiments.
The problem is the entire cast spends the latter half of the series endlessly sitting on their asses talking about their feelings. I don't even dislike the character stuff in principle; I actually think it worked pretty well in Episode 4, primarily because something else was happening in parallel. The experience of being a downtrodden service industry worker is highly relatable to anyone who isn't a trust fund kiddie and the character stuff was largely shown, not told. Same with the haunted house episode, which gave Kinger a few character moments that also established his aversion to light as an important story point.

Compare and contrast with episode 8-9 where the therapy sessions are their own dedicated scenes that just pad out sections of the show where the plot isn't moving forward in any real sense. Apparently Gooseworx at some point just forgot how to accomplish two things at once with a character scene.

 

[Smithfield Ham]

Nigga, didn't he literally say she gell down stairs?

Fuck, I don't remember.

If he did, maybe

 

[The Un-Clit]

You say this as though Gays, even if being better than troons, are deserving of good treatment, which is false.

You are reading a lot more into it then I say. I say gays fucked up by letting troons into their 'turf' that they carved out and the troons betrayed them and more or less took over their 'shield' of tolerance they built up and used it for their own ideological protection, leaving no benefit to the gays who let them in in the first place. No more then that, though frankly I have a lot less issue with gays who generally just want to be left alone to suck dick and fuck ass (or eat pussy) and don't really bother anyone.

Troons are ideologues who poison and distort the narrative and try to force everyone either love them and believe their bullshit or else you a transphobic hate-monger who deserves death, and try to ruin your life. They especially target the children and try to get them to drink the kool-aid at as young an age as possible.

I know which ones I'll ignore and which ones I'll do anything to oppose.

They're both disgusting. I agree troons are worse, but I refuse to back down on this.

 

[Milkmaid Man]

The more I sit on this tranny labotomy porn of a non-ending, the angrier I get.
Murder Drones' ending looks like a fucking masterpiece compared to this. At least it actually had SOMETHING happen, and there was a straight romance.

Anyway, enjoy some trannies posting their familial murder fantasies because Jax's mom is a heckin' bigot.

It honest to God bewilders me how these fucks don't realize how demonic this makes their cult sound. Actually criminal line of thought.

I'm not sure where you got the fight was in a car. It seems to be more like in a kitchen? It would be hard for his mom to stop and hug him during their argument if she was driving.

It also didn't look like she was pushed down stairs or out of a car. It just looked like she was pushed onto the floor, then Leeroy ran out of the suburban house took... I guess his car and decided to go be homeless to avoid murder charges.

I still think Ribbit was probably right, Jax's mom probably didn't die or the first person they would have hunted for would be her dumb teenage at the time son who conveniently disappeared. It would have made the background check to be a delivery driver difficult when the wanted on suspicion of murder warrant showed up.

 

[Mystery Spy]

I don't think Jax's Big secret is that he pushed his mom as many assume. I mean sure he was terrified of the consequences of that, but it's not like they are gonna arrest him in the digital world.

He doesn't even seem that scared or worried about her well being just on wheter they were gonna do something to him. He ran away for days without checking on her for before he got digitized.

I think his big secret is actually what he confessed to his mom. The" deeply personal thing" she laughed about and they never told us. Though we all can guess what it was. Most likely a queer/ trans confession.

you can do good therapy talk too i.e the sopranos but the problem is that tony soprano is a deeply intresting character and clussy and friends arent

A list of deeply personal things other than being trans/a crossdresser that Jax told his mom, which a mother would laugh at her son over:

[Judge Dredd]

sunday we had another 'teen attempt a failraid. A little less energy and seemingly in an empty theatre but right when zach hadel talks as a fish is a based ass move

I don't think it's real. It's completely empty for one. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was a voice over.

No energy, but also no reaction.
