Did it live up to the hype?

My hype was that fans would be disappointed, and it looks like I'm right. Now I just wait for them to realize how shit it always was and why...

No.

I anticipate a whole cycle of disappointment surrounding Glitch's shows. If I were a betting person, I'd wager Gameoverse will have the worst finale of them all. Not that it was ever good to begin with.

I think it'll be a mostly unresolved ending ala. Reboot, they're basically lifting parts of Matrix's arc wholesale.

It was only alright. They didn't nail the landing but they didn't crash the plane. Some parts of the finale felt very pointless given how it resolved (conjuring in the circus, trying to un-abstract Jax, etc.), and some of the most important stuff was told to us instead of shown (Jax's backstory, Caine's redemption, etc.). Gooseworx seems to rely on people talking and telling their feelings a lot in order to resolve character dilemmas. But that's not why the show got off the ground: it's the elements that were shown which made it work. I get that has a place with Jax, since sincerity is the antidote to irony, but I don't feel like the idea of resisting irony is present anywhere else in the finale. As such I'm somewhat confused as to what the primary narrative throughline is.

6/10, it was an okay ending

The pilot has something off. It's the only episode I watched and after finding out the creator is a tranny it now makes sense. I refuse to watch the rest of the show because I'm guessing it's just a bunch of characters that are basically gay or the guy's self inserts like Pomni.

This poster pisses me off because it gave me the impression Jax was going to do so much more creating of things, that he'd have a bit of trying to treat the place as his own plaything before abstracting. Instead it's just the poster artists hard carrying

Genuine question. Is there ANYTHING that could have actually turned this fanbase? They are way too committed.

Define the fanbase. There's a very, very vocal subsection that now vehemently hate the show. Best you could say is the fanbase is bipolar.

Why the fuck did Goose choose to center the finale around Jax?
He really isn't that goddamn interesting

I would beat Jax to death with my bare hands for wasting the hottest piece of frog ass in the digiverse. We would find out how much pain his cartoon body could take before forcibly abstracting.

Huh, then I dipped at the right time LMAO. Looked to be some hyperactive Zamination stuff that would've never appealed to me.

>>154049715
The main issue is that so much is set up in the pilot that is basically never expanded upon until episode 8 and even then, it's not sufficiently explained because we have to focus on Jax.

Whenever Jax is not in the room, everyone should ask where is Jax, am I right?
>>
>>154049788
So what I'm getting at is the show does a complete 180 on the protagonist focus? Porn artists gave me the impression that it was the Pomni show, not the Jax show.

>>154048689
I'm just back from the theater and it got two standing ovations (pre and post credits), hate isn't how I would describe it

That audience AND critic score are both insane. I loved this movie as a kid and thought it was a great follow-up to the original film.

>>154049850
Pomni is mostly a viewer avatar.
>>
>>154049850
Nah, it's still the Pomni movie, they make a point of the fact she's the one holding everyone together, the one who understood that abstractions aren't unsalvageable, the one who could instinctively conjure stuff beside Kinger, who had already made peace with staying in the circus forever. A lot of Jax's situation is there so Pomni can be the one to get him out of his shell and unite everyone to rebuild the circus
>>
>>154049919
Ah, that explains why her personality felt so paper-thin compared to literally everyone else. (I suppose the excuse is that she's a "newbie", but if the show really did just focus on Jax later on, then my red flags were raised at the correct time.)
>>
>>154049992
>A lot of Jax's situation is there so Pomni can be the one to get him out of his shell and unite everyone to rebuild the circus
From what you just described so far, I'm guessing the whole Jax thing was a subplot? Fair, you kinda need one to fill over an hour.
>>
>>154050020
No, it's one of the main focuses, just that it's all within the context of Pomni's attempt to save him when everyone else is just having regrets and leaving him for dead (until her efforts inpire them).
>>
>>154048689
So Circus Shit fans are lemmings, good to know.

Pomni turned to him in the theater because she was afraid he had abstracted. She opened the door when he was on the verge of abstracting and asked if he was okay. Even after his button-smashing moment, she could see he was at his breaking point. Yes, he doubled down, and she was probably disappointed, but when he almost reached out to her, how the hell did she just let him go?

Come on, Goose, at least for the sake of the fucking drama, have her try to stop him like in that scene from the Haruhi movie. The show is supposed to be about empathy and care, yet we ended up with that 'I regret not reaching out to him' shit. They should have shown the audience that no matter what she tries, he still won't listen, and then abstract him. That would have at least made her look like an actual hero everyone strives to be.
>>
>>154050731
>The show is supposed to be about empathy and care
And Cooper is a ghoul, so naturally, he only knows enough about those things to make society rape itself to please him and the rest of the castration cult.

You haven't been on twitter, the superfandom-types were looking for something to eat and dogpiled Kovatch and Goose hard for being "racist" and swearing up and down that they would never forgive the anyone working on the show or Glitch.

No, they just capitulate to the cult because they work under one of its members. He could've turned in chicken-scratch on used toilet paper and they would've treated it like a masterpiece; that's basically wat they were already doing for three years.
>>
>>154047907
A big reason for Amazing Digital Circus becoming so popular is being FREE on youtube. Same to other shit like Helluva Boss. If you request money strictly to be allowed to watch the episodes everyone would be cruel to this show's shoddy writing. Same to other examples like Murder Drones. You can't demand money for trite or people will review it harshly. Few things can get away with this treatment like retarded The Minions and Paw Patrol Movies.

Hope that people start to turn away from shitty animated media be it indie or not.
>>
>>154047852
I've said this on another thread, and I'll say it again. Screw this thing where writers just try and do a super innovative ending.
If you don't have an idea for an actually great ending, just make a standard good ending. Put some action scenes, some drama, some comedy, but ultimately make everyone escape, the end. Everyone is happy, no one will hate you for the ending, life goes on, etc.
>>
>>154051311
It is a standard good ending. Plenty of deus ex machina, the abstracted or Kane aren't really dead, they can continue having wacky circus shenanigans only they enjoy it, and their human selves weren't trapped in the first place and live fulfilling lives in the real world.
>>
>>154051307
>A big reason for [Circus Shit] becoming so popular is being FREE
So they spent their time, willingly, after getting past the abysmal pilot. No standards, in other words. That or naked capitulation, by fan and crew alike, to the castration cult.

IKR? The most baffling decision IMO was having Arin be the sound mixer, which was the worst choice Ross could've possibly made. Being a friend of Ross is one thing, but having this much involvement? It's a terrible sign of things to come.

Did the leak have the Zach Hadel bit at the beginning?

Exactly, the original Gameoverse was a Charlie the Unicorn-type show where goofier voices would've made sense. Nu-Gameoverse tries to be as serious as ReBoot, yet Arin's voices largely remained unchanged. Out of all the voices in the entire thing, Snappers was the one with the most effort put into it.

There’s no reason that Jax dominated 40 minutes and Caine dominated 10 minutes of the finale, both characters were already dead.
I think in a longer show, all the Jax flashbacks would have been welcome as a separate episode but as is, it’s unsatisfying.
It’s not even like the actual ending part of the ending is bad, but how they got there was just completely lacklustre which a shame because the flashback scenes in there are good but don’t work as a finale

I genuinely hate glitch and vivziepop. It's like you stabbed western animation with a ritual dagger so all the festering internet faggotry can infect the body to finally kill off anything not made by anxiety riddled nerds who should have had their heads swirled in a toilet more in high school. Or maybe more like gaping it's anus open so furfags and trannies can fistfuck it into incoherent OC compilations with extremely tenuous premises. And with TADC pushing it forward, everything attached to it gets to win for free. I hate cheap victories and Glitch hands them out like STDs at a Phish concert now.

I want trendy internet animation to END.
I want character designs based on premises where anything and everything including incoherent mishmashes of quirky bullshit to END.
I want obvious furry waifubait to END.
I want the object heads to END.
I want it's shit amatuer sense of "humor" and drama to END.

Glitch and Goodwin probably weren't even aware of it; Google just boosted the pilot in the algorithm as an act of capitulation to the castration cult, thanks in no small part to the West's "muh representation" psychosis over the last 250 years and the progressive illness it promoted for the same length of time.

It was something Pomni is able to do because she's stubborn enough to not give up and caring enough to break through the personas people put up. She learned Jax's backstory and what happened to Ribbit and Kaufmo and tried to comfort him as his mind died before everyone else pulled her out of it using a huge chain of Zooble arms.

He's a guy and he's a dick, and because Cooper is a castration cultist, he wanted to put him in a dress as many times as possible, judging by the merch and other promotional material.

As a casual TADC fan, I thought the ending was alright, although Caine's return felt like an asspull. I'm sure there's some convenient lines in the terminal at the end of episode 8 that makes it make sense but idc. I was hoping for more on Scratch than what we got. The editing was also a bit wonky at points. Aside from that, everything else about the ending made sense and I was entertained throughout it so 7 out of 10 for the first viewing.

There's a notable implication in one of his memories of having a conversation with Ribbit. Jax tells her some big secret (we don't learn what it *specifically* was, though the more clear assumption it was the memory shown earlier where he severely injured his mom in an argument). Jax begins to freak out after opening up like this, but then Ribbit says that "[his] secret is safe with me", and puts her ribbon on his head, which causes him to be surprised and blush.

Thats fucking it? Jesus the 4chan brain worm of always seeing trannies in everything has warped most of the opinion pool on here didnt it? The writing in this show isnt fucking avant-garde here if Goose wanted to say the fuck is trans it be just as obvious as fucking Zooble. Its just a cute girl doing some gay ass gesture of affection.
And going by your comment specifically Jax's fucking hang up is that hes a self destructive fuckwit who cant help but hurt the people he gets attatched too(consistent with the rest of the show). By god the rest of you fucks need to get laid

Abstraction is a really poorly done concept in the show. And mega confusing since it implies that abstracted people are in a creepy hive mind. It would’ve been better if Jax had a b-plot into exploring the abstracted world and then getting out of it akin to a near death experience.
But Goose said “gotta troon!”

>>154056658
No, I don't think escaping abstraction would've necessarily made it better. It's an analog to death, because death itself isn't possible here. Esoteric mind files permanently corrupted beyond repair makes for eerie and confusing setpieces, which I enjoyed. Though I think Jax's mind is actually fully fragmented, leaving only his corrupted avatar behind, so Pomni can't dive into his mind again to say hi or anything. Dude's gone, even moreso than the others.

It's part of that tragedy. Jax's insecurity caused Ribbit and Kaufmo to meet permanent ends, and then he his own. They can't be saved anymore, they're gone. But it gives some resolution and answers to the others still alive.
>>
>>154056497
Bro you weren't holding in those farts as well as you think you were that's probably why.
>>
>>154056755
I don’t give a shit. I know how my world, the world Jesus created, and know it very well. Kaufmo’s abstraction was implied to be the data the circus annd Caine absorbed to make more capable NPCs. And there was creepy paranormal activity in in episode 7 that implied the abstracted are operating on a totally different lense.

And instead, it’s just pure directionless nonsense with a creator that doesn’t want to be consistent about it.

The thing is. How I am describing it to you is death. And in that circumstance, Jax has the choice to stay abstracted or go back to Pomni and co. And when he does it, he’ll never see Ribbit and Kaufmo again as the corruptions in the code will be prevented by a fixed Caine.

I wanted an adventure that is consistent and fills me with wonders I can’t truly solve. Episode 7 give me a taste of it. Episode 8 felt like it was building to it. And instead, I was fucked and learned what the shit is another stupid trooning story.
>>
>>154056945
Anon I think you are too drunk on your headcanons to consider that it's not your show and how the abstractions work is not up to you, it's up to Gooseworx. If she emphasizes it's a permanent end that the players cannot come back from, then it's an analog for death.

This was only relevant when talking about Scratch. Caine makes it clear that Scratch's abstraction was his fault, and why he kept any further changes to temporary mid-adventure modifiers. What it introduces is that if a person's mind becomes too corrupted from any reason or source, they will abstract. Despair and grief are other sources that introduce that corruption too.

Yeah I guess that's a valid interpretation, but we have so little information on Scratch and all that that I think you can make the argument that Caine made a mistake then, and he's making a mistake now and that the temporary modifiers eventually add up to corrupting their minds.
Literally doesn't matter though so oh well, who cares who's right.

>How did each of them find the computer/circus?
Well Kinger's is obvious, the rest of them seemed to have stumbled into it after abandoning someone or something excluding Pomni who was an urban explorer. As for why they try on the headset, innate curiousity.

>How did they meet IRL?
Coincidence and it's ambiguous whether they know each other like that.

>Can abstractions be fixed?
No, if it were that simple then Caine would've done it but it seems abstraction is akin to data corruption and without backups there's no getting around it

>Will more people continue to come into the circus?
Maybe, the building is still there, the headset is still there. As for abstractions, seeing as everyone is on the same page now including Caine I don't think things would get dire enough for someone else to break down.

>Did Caine cause or force Scratch to abstract?
He caused it by accident due to screwing with his scan data too much.

I'm not sure why you needed exposition of every minute detail, some things are better left up to interpretation and not all stories need to last forever.
>>
So did Jax hit the "no" button because he didn't want to go back to his real life and have to face what happened to his mother, or because he knew they were just brainscans and "leaving" would essentially be dying? He says he always knew or something when it's revealed that they're just data files

>>154058133
He didn't want to go back. The circus, its inexplicable partial amnesia, and the comic state of things are easy escapes from the life he wanted to forget. If he reveals too much he feels too exposed and pivots to protect his fragile ego, hard rejecting whatever it is that caused him to feel that vulnerable, even if it was in a safe place.

Like, he had it all with his friends before. He was good buddies with Ragatha, Kaufmo, and Ribbit, and Ribbit both knew about his sordid past and still accepted him despite it. But it made him feel way too vulnerable and insecure, and he threw all that away. Him learning that Kinger was a real C&A employee was a shock to his worldview, that this wasn't some stupid cartoon, and him learning they were all brainscan AIs and nobody blaming Kinger for killing Caine just convinced him that nothing ever mattered, and he could let go.
>>

but I'm glad everyone else is having fun. This might be the last major movie theater event I ever go to
>>
>>154054961
It’s really about villifying his pre-transition self because being a successful cartoon creator makes him wonder why he bent the knee so damn hard (even if only subconsciously)
At the same time emphasizing Jax hard because he wants to create positivity for this symbolic figure, the chaotic trans mind

I really think it's just a "I'm a crossdressing sissy femboy faggot" kind of thing, if it's even any kind of sexual or identity thing to begin with.

>>154058824
>it's because you let them live rent free in your head for some reason
The creator is literally a tranny and called Jax his "self insert".
Anyway I think there's some weight to the theory because of the chained up door in his mind that Pomni never gets to see behind that also has the Jax sign on it scratched out. It implies that there's a secret that Pomni never finds out about, and that it's a different kind of Jax on the door

I thought it was easily the best non-Japan ese animated series finale, like ever. Insanely good, emotionally complex, doesn't hold your hand for every choice made, especially with the Jax and Caine stuff. Was very very impressed. Rewatching the show made me realize all the episodes work better with the full context of Gooseworx's vision as well.

I think people are judging it for what they thought it should be instead of what the show is, which is a character study and ideation on depression, suicide, and miscommunication. I found the show's ending to be incredibly poignant and melancholic and I can't think of a better cartoon that represents the current time period more than this one.

From what Kinger says the brain files didn't even work in the first place and the whole thing happened because said files were left long enough with a creative AI for it to start figuring them out (and the implication is it was Scratch's gambit in the first place)to the level were he could make them circus characters, so there's the implication he might be able to fix them in the long run as he understands more and more about human minds

If Jax is a ftm tranny then it sounds like his mother was trying to get him to become more masculine as support, but he hated her for that

That's all it fucking was, just half an hour of going into Jax's backstory and 10 minutes of Caine going on a monologue of "Hmm, maybe I was wrong" and then climbing up some stairs.
I was actually hoping that we'd have to watch these characters come to terms with the fact that they're "fake", or dealing with the fact that they've doomed themselves to a trapped world without Caine, but instead we just ignore the majority of the cast, you get 5 minutes of them being sad about Jax being dead and that's the end of their emotional journey.

A better episode wouldve been if jax got triggered after caines death somehow but instead of abstracting he becomes the new ringmaster, being even worse than Caine was. Then Caine escapes the recycle bin and helps them stop jax using stuff they learned about him from the real world (honestly id cut that irl shit out completely and skip that). In any case they defeat jax / make him chill out and get used to the circus. Maybe caines blue ai and/or bubble are the new antagonist, boom, setup for more tadc. Could have bubble unleash hell upon the circus and try to ruin it and the cast members too or use the abstracted people against them. Maybe caine makes up for his bad stuff by working with jax to defeat bubble. And then jax gets redemption from the group after helping caine defeat bubble.

Caine couldve also sacrificed himself to save the others somehow with some tech jargon bs explanation where he could save the abstracted characters but at risk/cost, himself.


Its probably generic in some ways if you pick through it but at least it has a meaningful loss. As it is, literally ANYONE besides those already abstracted wouldve been an improvement if they died, just because itll make it no longer a hugbox where nothing happens.

Stories where nothing bad happens (at least not permanently) have no stakes or consequences at all and they make the whole series of events prior ring hollow.

A hallmark of a shit writer in this era is authors who cant help killing every character off for the fuck of it or never kill any of them because they dont wanna hurt anyones feelings. No tasteful choices about which survive and which dont and why.

Goose is a shit writer

The funny thing is that he then immediately got an actual heartfelt moment with the moon afterwards that was then completely glossed over. It would've been so easy to just have one of his creations evolving beyond his control and having a dialogue with him act as the trigger for him having a change of heart.
Instead he just does exactly what he did at the start of episode 8, but this time it has the opposite effect because whatever. Could've pinned it on Bubble who's the blue AI, but that's either a dropped plot point or was never true in the first place.

because the first time it got him killed so he took some time off to see how they'd fare without him, which led them throguh a path where they learned and organized to create their own stuff, and kept an abstraction under control when he'd been throwing them away as lost causes. He's a learning AI, of course after that he was gonna come to a different conclusion than the one that didn't work.

Jax is not responsible for Kaufmo. Dude was going to abstract searching for Exit anyway, maybe would've brought Jax with him.
>>
>>154063000
no but at the same time he alienated Kaufmo almost as badly as he alienated Ribbit

its somewhat similar to how Pomni said that, if she had tried to get closer to Jax the last time they spoke, he wouldnt have abstracted

im thinking Kaufmo figured out the truth on his own, the brain scans thing, and he sunk into total despair knowing exitting the circus was absolutely impossible

Is easy to do so. Remember that Christian conservatives expect trans individuals like Gooseworx to accept how they were created by God. It’s trans who think Jax is evil, not normal people who pick on each other all the time.


Jax’s general story is inspired by how young millennial males were abused on Tumblr and other early social media for being masculine. Since the creator is trans, he wants to believe he made the right choice by committing identity suicide, but the story of Jax contains an abundance of evidence that he’s wrong.

Furthermore, women find his ‘creepy male behavior’ hot, which also shows how broken the narrative is

>>154063256
>Jax’s general story is inspired by how young millennial males were abused on Tumblr and other early social media for being masculine
Jax was explicitly (to him) tormented for not living up to an imagined masculine ideal, not for being masculine
His outward personality for most of the series is an insecure cope very straightforwardly based on him assuming that perceived mockery would continue to be the case if he let people in
>>
>>154055275
This would make sense if Leroy at the end wasn't still referred to as he/him, implying that even after he got brainscanned he didn't transition. I think it's likely that Jax has some fruit in his salad but I don't think he was closeted trans.
>>
>>154063000
Jax isnt even responsible for ribbit abstracting but the show frames it that way contrary to its core message. All of them are equally responsible but if anyone is to blame its caine.
>>
>>154047907
>>154048213
But the ending was fitting and besides a couple weird cuts, decent really. A rarity these days. It was good.
>>154048762
The show actually doesn't go very heavy handed on those things. Goose left it mostly to implication, which can realistically be more multi-faceted and nuanced than what weirdo online (like many here) assume. Very based.
>>
>>154063349
The refusal to be more direct with what it was compared to a character like zooble being pretty up front is a themes thing, but he could very easily just have been anything from a classical crossdresser to some variant of femboy to a new age transfuck creature and it wouldn't change the story much
Realistically I don't think someone like that would ever end up being out publicly regardless of what it is
>>
Don't know about you guys, but I loved the ending. Maybe it's because I'm a huge sucker for its themes and I didn't go with any expectations about the story

I'm actually surprised that the ending is apparently divisive, since I can see what Gooseworx was going for and I thought the fans would see the vision, but guess I'm a casual (watched the series after the movie was announced)
>>

Caine is ultimately responsible as the host of the circus and their care taker along with accidentally gaslighting and tormenting them.
In a show about the connections and the collective responsibility these characters have for one another those connections seemingly dont exist in any tangible way. Were was anyone else? No one else stepped in no one else noticed or mediate.
The enitre show is like this and its a mess.
>>
>>154063871
Caine trying to occupy the humans minds even if done perfectly would still only be a last resort failsafe, and could never be the main thing holding anyone together
If he had simply left them alone they would have only degraded faster
Additionally, as much as corporate HR reps would have you believe, people are not interchangeable cogs in a machine, any relationship is not equivalent to any other, you are still responsible for how you personally hurt people who care about you and vice versa

I liked it a lot too. It seemed like a very earnest story with a genuine message to tell based off someone's lived experiences, which is rare in a lot of stories these days.

I think it's kind of sad though that this blows a lot of other animated show endings out of the water. Because ultimately it had a lot of weird flaws still. But getting a real story instead of some derivative NuPixar or formulaic industry writer sloppa is so rare that watching something like TADC feels like drinking water in the middle of a dessert.
>>
>>154063427
I think Goose actually did a good job with making things implication, showing restraint by not making everything onsidedly gay or trans dysphoria.
Zooble is clearly body dysphoric due to her body being based on brainscans, but dysphoria != trans. Dysphoria can be felt by men and women for different reasons, it's up to the individual to cope or work through that mental health issue how they see fit, and truth is, it's not always chopping yer dick or tits off. By leaving it at just implied dysphoria, it allows zooble more than being boiled down to terms and ideologies. Based on goose's characterization.
Same with Jax or any other character. I think goose did a good job about making it about feelings rather than absolutes. She didn't take sides, and made a very human story.

What's to stop them from tricking IRL Jax into putting the headset on again, looking at the new Jax brainscans, and use that to recompile OG Jax? The Abstractions are basically just them corrupting, right? You could literally just fix OG Jax or extract enough of his memories to put into a new Jax scan to have him back.
>>
>>154063997
Caines effect on their well being is fundamentally a mixed bag as established in the first episode when he accidentally killed kaufmo. Whether or not his justification for his adventures and maintaining the circus when the other characters are shown able to create things themselves is another matter entirely.
The point i was making completely went over your head. No, another cast member couldnt replace jax or suddenly make things better, but as kinger said "The worst thing you can do is make someone feel unloved." and what we know about abstraction is it almost always happens when characters feel completely isolated. The fact we do not see a hint of their social dynamic it along with what we know heavily implies that the rest of the cast stood by and let her abstract. And we have instances of characters justifying them isolating others like when zooble puts the blame on kaufmo for abstracting, or no one figuring out the darkness thing with kinger, or ragathas entire character ect ect.
Its a disappointment that aspect of the show doesnt go anywhere and instead we get the easy way out of it was all jax's fault. Even the sociopathic ai that accidentally murders them on occasion gets closure.

>>
>>154064318
That's why you halt the process of turning the brainscans into an avatar, go in, and use it to recompile OG Jax. They have the same basic memories up to a point.

By the time you recompile all of that, you can fix the rest of OG Jax, maybe do a little creative editting to keep him from abstracting again (maybe edit his memories of episode 7 and 8 to be about them forcing Caine to tell them the truth), and he's good as new again.

When you're a digital being, nothing is static and everything is fixable. Hell, that can be Kinger and Caine's project for a few months.

>>154062956
What resolution did we get? He becomes abstracted, then he remains abstracted

MY initial thought is he would send their brainscans, or upload them onto the WWW, now that he managed to breach the hard boundaries of his digital prison by finding a wifi access to the rest of human digital space, they could exist on a wider network... or even *he* could... for better and worse.

Maybe coping over ribbit too. You could take the gay angle as well but I think the thematics fit better with pomni

pedantic programmer here, thats not how it works, the files grant them conscience within the context of the circus, because i assume Caine's program can read the files en interpret them

uploading their brains to dropbox or whatever would do nothing if theres not a program on the other side to read those files and handle them as human consciences

it would be like pulling your brain out of your body and moving it somewhere else, you didnt move your conscience, you just killed yourself

Eeeh, it was okay?
Jax abstracting off screen was mid. Teasing being able to save him from abstraction, only to never confirm if its possible was mid.
Caine coming back completely out of nowhere was mid, as was how quickly everyone forgave him.

I think if you're actually going to go the SOMA route, they really needed to actually dedicate some time into exploring what it means to be a digital copy of a real person, forced to live in a world with no real consequences or stakes. They just glossed over all of it.

It definitely felt like it either needed more time in the film, or that Goose just wrote it without as much passion, because she wanted to be over and done with the fuckin thing.

>>154053215
If they are just data and brainscans. Going abstract is probably similar to the file corrupting. The file is still there, you can still interact with it. But it's just a remnant of what it once was.

When pomni went inside, she found all of jax's character traits she was flanderized down to. Sort of like properties a file would store.

In theory it's possible to uncorrupt a file, but most people would rather delete it and not deal with the hassle.

Ends up being better than TADC on account of things actually amounting and being built up in the story, instead of TADC's wet fart because Gooseworx doesn't know what they were building to and just throws their personal issues in there by making things just happen and turning it into the Jax Show.
Ridiculously fast pacing can be alleviated by the fact that Glitch's shows are free Youtube cartoons that you can watch and digest at your own pace. The end-half of TADC being an omnishambles of shit can't be.

Saw a lot of chubby white girls with merch (some wearing shirts and jackets, some dressed up entirely, some holding giant Pomni plushies) and I saw a couple obvious trans girls which honestly I kinda half expected. Overall 9/10 theatre experience, everyone was reacting to stuff and laughing but not in a rude or annoying way.

Everyone who isn't a late Gen Xer or Millennial has no idea how cmd line instructions work, let alone any of the terminology. To the Gen Z audience, just a bunch of dire computer stuff is going on and they'll wait for the loresmiths to point out Easter Eggs they can understand.

Kinger pressed Y because whatever code he was trying to run got interrupted with a prompt to delete Caine instead of running whatever it was suppose to do. He tries to essential roll the command back but whatever the WACKYTIME LOCKOUT is finishes running before the terminal accepts his instructions, so it still follows the Y command.

But for the benefit of the Zoomers, they show Kinger hitting Delete on the keyboard, as if they would actually delete Caine entirely instead of just... clearing a line (if that).

You're absolutely right, because in these threads (maybe even this exact thread) I've seen people defending Caine being alive as "Well, when you delete something it goes to the Recycle Bin you idiots!", because they're just totally unaware of how any of this works.

>That's why you halt the process of turning the brainscans into an avatar, go in, and use it to recompile OG Jax. They have the same basic memories up to a point.
That sounds incredibly difficult and it was already established that these brainscans were made up by Scratch who was a genius programmer with a specific way of programming that was so abstract that others practically couldn't even understand his code. That and the brainscan files are incredibly small, which for some reason makes them incredibly difficult to edit in anyway even for Caine which is the most powerful of programmers there.

I guess they do have infinite time to try. Or atleast until someone shuts off the computer or some shit.
>>
>>154068270
Its just a show. Jax dies (abstracts) because thats what the script says happens.

People debating realism are wasting their time because there are already multiple imconsistencies and improbabilities including dates when technology wasnt availible namely a.i., a 90s computer having wifi and the capability to browse the modern internet, impossible file sizes, etc.

jax literally can't be trans because caine made a program to give them bodies based their minds and jax got put in a male body.

which makes me wonder if it would have been a better reveal if it turned out someone from the circus was the opposite gender in real life...
>>
>>154069542
If that happens i will accept it. They certainly did leave the possibility open since abstraction isnt outright death.

But that is a mighty big "IF". They could always just make episodes about what happened between the time skip.

>>154056505
Kinger and caine are directly responsible for everyone being trapped tortured for most the series, caine gets a whole episode torturing them worse than jax ever could, yet caine replaced jax and no one gives the slightest fuck while having fun with him kek.

Anyway Caine's a different situation, what happened with him was shit still but first of all there was significantly less time spent on "redeeming" him so it didn't stick out as much. The fact that he's supposed to be "good" now is also different. Jax is someone who never changed, never got better, just dragged other people down when they tried to help him, and we're supposed to pity him, it feels worse to me than someone who's shit but changes.
In a just world they'd both be deleted though, I'm sorry for not spending enough time bitching about Caine too.

Goose made a fun setting and a colorful cast of characters that drew in everyone then ended the story in the most narrow and selfish way possible.
I can respect it but if you're not a part of that extremely liberal small circle of people who absolutely obsess over mental health and gender identity it'll most likely fall flat, as it did for me.

Some people are just retarded and will read leaks and be mad that the leaks were real. I went out of my way to filter basically everything so none of the sites I visit could even mention the series to avoid spoilers, and the only thing that slipped through only did so because it was loaded with typos, likely just to bypass filters.

The only spoiler I saw was "Jax abstracts" but my only reaction to that was "duh".

We don't know exactly what Jax said to his mom, but it could be that he's gay or that he's trans. The most annoying part is that it's ambiguous what he said that you can take it for either, but since Goose is a troon you just automatically assume the latter.

Why would I eat popcorn that Caine already has in his mouth?
>>
I live in Missouri near the Saint Louis region. Near. Not in. I promise it makes a huge difference.
The entire audience had a joint reaction where everyone just kinda looked at each other and started whispering once Caine revealed the personal lives of the cast.

Felt weird realizing that the grocery chain that Pomni worked at was more than likely Schnucks. Also strange realizing that Jax was from Wildwood, which is actually a really nice area.
>>
>>154068739
>I mean he's the antagonist so that kind of makes him more important in the other characters doesn't it
The way the first four episodes were written, he was just one of six characters in the main cast. His dynamic was different from everyone, sure, but he didn’t feel all that much more important until episode 6, arguably 5.

Kinger was shown to have more importance than him by episode 3, and it still felt like he was just one of six different characters, not the second protagonist.
>>
>>154070090
5 is the worst by far though.
>>
>>154072464
NTA but Jax always stood out to me because he was pushing the plot forward.
He is pretty regularly involved in both the A and B plots of most episodes, probably with the exception of 3 where he was literally bound and gagged to prevent him from interfering.

also 3 episodes is only a third of the whole series, like assholes have no idea how to enjoy a story

It's kinda bad but I didn't have any expectations so I wasn't disappointed
>>
>>154072529
Fair, but I still think that if Goose really wanted Jax to be the second main character, it wasn’t written clearly enough. When he’s with a group, it’s told from the group’s POV, not Jax’s.

For a comparison, in Arcane (season 1 at least), the character hierarchy of importance is much clearer.
>Vi is the main protagonist, with Caitlyn coming in to serve as deuteragonist in her story
>Jayce is a deuteragonist in the show, but the protagonist of the HexTech storyline, with Viktor having deuteragonist duties
>Jinx functions as both a deuteragonist and antagonist due to her familial connection with Vi, and serves as a window to the main antagonist of the season Silco
IDK how else to explain it, TADC’s “hierarchy” just feels less clear because it was written more as an ensemble.
>>

I think there's also a good story writing in keeping a heirarchy ambiguous.
The emphasis and degree to which you focus on characters isn't something that should be set in stone and can be something that you withhold a character's relevance until the very end, especially when you're trying to hide a character's motivations and intentions.

What's the point of this screen cap? The Mario movie doesn't have good writing either. It's better but just okay, and it feels less bad because it's not presenting itself as deep or edgy. But the writing is also mid lmao

>>154070236
Kinger was involved in making caine, he dragged himself into this.
>>
>>154073814
Fixing abstractions most likely involves them choosing to come back since they're at the point of giving up. Something like caine would only convince them to stay in their pseudo animal state as a cope. With the way the darkness works to calm them Kinger seems to have been like a halfway abstraction for who knows how long. He didn't give up fully probably out of guilt and wanting to help.
>>
>>154073993
Caine was just supposed to be a generative AI, the brainscan stuff was all Scratch and unrelated to the main goal of the company.
Now if you say that Kinger deserves it because he was making generative AI, then based, but saying that it's his fault is a bit much.
>>
>>154074095
He still made the ai that tortured them while power tripping. If your kid turns into some freak that kills people over nothing despite you not raising them for that you're still going to be responsible for making him and feel responsible for the killings.
