>>151012784
its more of a modern re-telling
since beatrice is their guide rather than vergil
and even though the imagery is from inferno, the unknown functions more like purgatory
>>
It's such a comfy little miniseries but at this point it's better off experiences as a film. Apparently someone made a movie edit of it but I haven't been able to find it myself so I'm thinking of taking a crack at it. I wish there was more of it than what we got but I wouldn't trust a remake or any new content even if the comics are good. There's no good way to have Wirt and Greg return to the Unknown that would feel satisfying and I'm not sure it would be the same with a new cast. Watching it for the first time the twist reveal was wonderful and recontextualized the previous events in a really clever way and you just can't do that more than once.
>>
>>151013355
i wouldnt watch it back to back without pause, each episode has its own arc and its own setting
so when watched as a seamless movie, you get several episodic vignettetes with lots of time skips
>>
>>151013371
It's a different format than we are used to for films but not inherently a bad one IMO. Most people binge the show now anyway.

I've seen a lot of comments in past /co/ threads where anons admitted to this making them tear up. I don't know what it is about it specifically that can invoke those feelings in people because I can attest the same, I do think it speaks to it's quality that it can incite such strong reactions. The last time I saw it was fresh after a breakup; I don't really recommend watching this after a breakup because it hits hard but I don't hold that against it. Since then I've held more affection for the series and I don't think that will change, but it really bums me out that we aren't ever going to get more of it outside of the graphic novels. I know it would probably be a bad idea and we should move on but if you had any ideas for how the story could be continued or how the setting could be revisited how would you do it?

You don't deserve Over the Garden Wall if you feel this way about Greg. A show this morbid and played this straight needs a comic relief character, and Greg delivers just the right amount of whimsy to make it all feel whole.

any idea what it is about?

>>151007061
I watched it this year for the first time and I can't stop thinking about it. There are so many genius things hidden in it, like I don't think anyone has made this connection yet, but in Hippocrates' On the Nature of Man, he describes the four biles in the human body whose imbalances cause disease, and further associates elements and seasons to them. Guess what black bile represents? Its imbalance leads to depression. It's associated with Autumn. Its element is earth.

>Adult Swim’s The Elephant is an animated special where one team is responsible for one of three acts without any knowledge of what the others are making. With Sugar and Jones-Quartey working as a duo and McHale and Ward overseeing their own separate parts, The Elephant is guided by “game masters” Jack Pendarvis and Kent Osborne for a storytelling experiment that unfolds as a collaborative surprise, ultimately merging into a single, unexpected narrative.

It would be a shame if this where the reason why. Long Live the Royals was actually decent; it was at least a big improvement over the pilot. But I remember those talkback threads having only like a dozen people in them. There was absolutely zero hype for it, people weren't even tuning in

No. I watched it once years ago and that was enough. I don't think it's a show worth rewatching. The world and creatures were interesting but I didn't like Greg. Didn't like Writ either much but he wasn't anywhere near as bad. A trek through this world but with any other leads would have been preferable.

There's no doubt lots of that in books and comics but you'll have to go looking for them (I also don't recommend just googling "if you like Over the Garden Wall" because you'll just be given a list of things like Gravity Falls, Stranger Things and for some reason Ghibli films) and decide for yourself.

I don’t think there’s much more of a story to tell unless you go anthology like infinity train

You don’t need to be young,
You just need to be retarded.
You’ll have all the ups and downs and the heartbreak and the highs and the disappointment and you will feel like a cuck and then you feel like a chad and in the end it will have consumed one or more years of your life of constantly thinking about that one girl.
Will it work out?

or the inferno part. the unknown acts like an inbetween realm of life and death. I'd like to think that it's a place where ghosts roam until their tasks that tie them to ths earth are completed.
