Awesome DuckTales News AND Animatic (by irestuff)!



Well, it's been a while since I last posted. Close to a month, actually. Kind of embarrassing. But today, I have TWO things for you. Hopefully that'll make up for such a long break. This is Clara Murphy, Queen of Fandoms, and today we're going to talk about DuckTales! WOO-OO!

First, as you can deduce from the title of the post, I have a bit of news for you all. And it is rather exciting news indeed.

This very day, the final episode of Season 1 of DuckTales aired.

THE FINAL EPISODE.

*fangirl squeal*

I will say, I haven't seen the episode myself, or several of the episodes preceding it, but I CANNOT WAIT to catch up. Especially after seeing the clips pop up on my YouTube Recommended "Hey You Should Watch This" section.

This is going to be epic. It is going to be SO EPIC.

Second, in commemoration of the events of the day, I've decided to show you all a video I found. It's by a person on YouTube called irestuff, who did another animatic combining DuckTales and the theme song of Gravity Falls. But this one is, I think, way cooler. Take a look.




That is kind of scary.

I mean, this kind of thing in general is scary. The kind of thing where you have this character who you really like, but then he is taken over by the main villain of the entire story and is turned against his friends, and then the remaining heroes have to go fight him... yeah, THAT is scary, in an 'oh my gosh no this cannot be happening please NO' kind of way.

I'm beginning to think maybe 'scary' isn't quite the right word. But 'dramatic' doesn't have quite the weight needed to describe how it feels when that kind of thing happens in a story.

It makes for a dramatic story, of course, but it also makes me want to just about strangle them... as soon as they tell me what happens to these characters... though that might save them, depending on how things end up.

Sorry, that went off on a bit of a tangent. Anyway, about the video itself.

The song I think was from some TV spinoff of the Tangled movie. I've never seen the show, but I've seen this, and also one or possibly two other videos with the same song. Yeah, two, including a video of just the song from the original episode. This one's the first one I saw, and the best one. REALLY AWESOME!  :D

This was pretty well made too, visually. It actually looks like the characters from the show, which makes it just a bit more dramatic. One of the other videos I saw was done in this anime style, and didn't really look like the original show it was from. It was okay, but it wasn't as... well, scary, I guess.

This sort of thing was actually what I was afraid was going to happen in the finale of Gravity Falls. And maybe it did. Or maybe it didn't. But that was what I initially expected.

I don't THINK this is what will happen in the season finale of DuckTales. But you never know. I mean, MAGICA. *shudders at the creepiness/evilness* 
BUT ANYWAY, that is my post! Go watch the season finale of DuckTales! I know I'M ready to watch it--ready as I'll ever be.  ;)
