ducktales live watch archive

ducktales is SO good. i wish i could watch it for the first time all over again. like with my rise thread, it's a lot of screenshots and me saying "SO CUTE RAAAAH", bc i'm not very eloquent when i really like a show or its characters.

as you might predict (and you'll see this), my favorites are the triplets, who i've loved since i was a child watching house of mouse. it's incredibly hard to pick a favorite – which is wild to me, because i've had lots of practice picking a fave...

this is even more screenshot heavy than rise, and that's AFTER i went through and cut out 90% of the "so cute!!!!" tweets and frames i just saved as reference. when i first assembled it (partway through s3) i had 750+ screenshots.

i've not hidden any spoilers, so if you haven't seen the show, go watch it first!!! i promise it's good!

della begging for shelter at ithaquack and not even pretending she's not trying to protect the ducklings instead of letting them take part in the battle :( and even sharpest of the sharpies louie not picking up on it... ohh they are just kids....

huey and webby sharing a locker!!! i know it's because they're both organized + most likely to share but ohhh... still makes me happy

glomgold having these hand drawn slideshows is a funny recurring thing Because it's

  1. in character, and
  2. a thing only he does.

this is important to me because it's a Major pet peeve of mine in hazbin hotel and helluva boss

April 30, 2024

addendum to the #2 point: louie shows drawings too, but in pitch packets, so it's a different medium and feels different. it also still feels right/in character because of course a child's pitch packet comes with hand colored drawings.

glomgold's slideshows and louie's drawings r silly "character-made" visual gags done right, imo! again, one is a character you're not meant to take seriously, and the other is a child, so their silly drawings make SENSE.

April 30, 2024 (i'm just talking about hazbin hotel at this point)

compare that to this drawing that alastor supposedly made for the in-universe hotel commercial he filmed.

alastor? alastor. prohibition era radio host people eating fearsome overlord alastor? writing "ship! i guess" and "haha i named it"....... Girl

i know that whole show relies on low hanging fruit for humor, and gee maybe i'm underestimating alastor's sense of whimsy, but it bothers me that the doodles and notes feel so samey. it is disappointing to see a piece of media not even take its own characters' personalities and backgrounds seriously.

i know it appeals to fans who are like "hehe even alastor is stupid" but it's the same! fucking! joke! whenever we see characters showing their work!

and yeah, for blitzø and adam it makes sense they do that, but vox and charlie? man. did you all go to the same shitty school? do you all have a passion for doodling and unfunny, immature side comments? my god

ohhh louie's little speech is really sweet and touching... he truly was the star of this season!

April 30, 2024

lol + AUGH........

April 30, 2024

AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

+i sure as fuck hope huey gets a little Smoothing Her Hands Over The Sides Of His Head moment in season 3 to complete this collection. because tf...

April 30, 2024

also. louie is the one who gets drawn with darker eyebrows sometimes (rarely the other two, if at all), so i am inclined to assume that in della's drawing: L = dewey, R = louie, B = huey

(i know i just did a big rant about shitty silly drawings as visual gags in hazbin. but della's shitty drawings are still distinct from the others and in character to Me)

April 30, 2024
