The fact that Chuckie went through heavier shit as a toddler than a preteen will always bemuse me
>>152778794He should’ve stayed without a mom. It would’ve made him less of a spaz as a preteen.
I think I liked Chucky in the Mother’s Day episode, where he’s more blissfully ignorant and confused than anything else. In the Paris movie he moves into full blown grieving mode, which is usually normal for somebody in this situation, but he’s a baby. The tv episode does a better job at acknowledging he’s a baby, I think.
>>152779815By the time the second movie came out they didn't sct as babies that much.
>>152779874Yeah, and that was a big sign the show ran for too long.
'Here Comes Chuckie Chan' was a fucking banger. That All Grown Up never used it as imagination spots was a fucking crime.
that's why all grown up makes no sense unless they forgot everything
>>152780910They did. They have an episode where they dig up Reptar and vaguely recall some things, but it’s mostly about how they forgot most of the stuff they did as babies. Like most people do.Chuckie knows the story about his first word because his parents have told him about it a million times, though. Interestingly, I’m not sure they know or remember they were lost in the woods for a couple days right after Dill was born. Probably the parents aren’t as excited to tell that story.
>>152780947>Probably the parents aren’t as excited to tell that story.It'd be funny in hindsight.
>>152780947Chuckie did remember having an imaginary friend, funnily enough. So does my little sister, so maybe that's typical?>Chuckie knows the story about his first word because his parents have told him about it a million timesI think that would happen if your first word was something other than "ma-ma" or "da-da," or anything typical like that. My first word was "ball," and I only know that because the story was so amusing that my parents loved telling it to me all the time.
>>152778794It happens sometimes.
>>152780947Depressing desu
>biggest problem as a babyhis mom is fucking dead>biggest problem as a teenagerhe's unreasonably jealous of his best friend banging his sister (or unreasoably jealous of his sister banging his best friend)
>>152783140There was also the dumbass christmas episode where he thought God was going to kill him for accidentally stealing a Christmas tree
>>152780947>Make Teen Tommy's gimmick be that he wants to make movies>Lol, let's have him completely forget his favorite movie character that in all likelihood would have inspired that dream career.
>>152783764God I hate how late seasons rugrats was frantically planting the seeds for a new status quo for All Grown Up. I think its cool that the characters grew and changed and looked very different from their early seasons counterparts. I think its weird that they apparently were also stuck in a weird status quo limbo for ten years straight. I didnt need episodes of baby tommy suddenly getting really interested in cameras. That would be a fine thing to leave implied as happening gradually during the timeskip.
>>152783816Everything about all grown up just feels slightly 'off'I still kinda like it though. Definitely a product of its time.
>>152783764That’s another thing. They weren’t even teens. Tommy was eleven. Easy mistake to make though, because some of the time it felt like the writers really wanted to be writing a show about teenagers.Other cartoons about kids in this age group suffer from this problem a little bit, but usually they make a point in some episodes to contrast the middle school characters with actual highschoolers that are clearly in a whole different league.
>>152778794His mom got turned into a chicken and died.
>>152784290I always thought it was cancer.
>>152784374You clearly have not read the Rugrats Lost Episode creepypasta.
>>152784388why would i
>>152783764Tommy did have many imagination-spot moments as a baby that do feature iconic movie scenes so maybe its deeper than specifically a monster movie he was into when he was a baby. Hell the first movie starts off with an Indiana Jones scenario.
>>152784277>They weren’t even teensThe writers either wanted to do high school and didn't let a mandate the characters be younger stop them, or didn't know how to do stories about pre-teens and just did high school soap opera instead.
>>152785216Yeah, and both of those are dumb.
They should have had Chuckie regress and go back in diapers.It's cruel to potty train a two-year-oldhttps://files.catbox.moe/7c6r6c.jpeg
>>152783764>let's have him completely forget his favorite movie character that in all likelihood would have inspired that dream career.After Emmerich's Reptar movie he was a dead IP
>>152782703Why'd you have to remind me of the Rugrats reboot literally NOBODY asked for...
>>152785618I ain't clickin dat shit
>>152786796It's an AI image of (this is extra space so you're less likely to accidentally hover over the second part, in case you REALLY don't want to know) Chuckie laying on the floor in a diaper
>>152779815Chucky had a living mother in an earlier season.
>>152783700When I was a kid I called buddha fat at a booth where some Asian guy was selling tiny buddhas and thought he cursed me when he gave me a dirty look.
>>152780910Why wouldn't they forget? It's the norm for people to forget things from when they were babies/toddlers.

>>152786342Even normies complained about Suzie being one of the babies.
>>152786815It's trueHe should still be in diapers. https://files.catbox.moe/am7n24.jpg
Reminder that this is CANON!Rugrats S04 E08 The smell of success
>>152793550>>152793711They're baaaaaaack!
>>152778794That’s usually how it is in real life. Parents are a separate species that are highly capable of vicious child abuse and, honestly, will usually start invoking negative teen stereotypes at their children long before their children reach their teens.
>>152784277>>152785216iirc in the original pitch they were teens, angelica turning 13 was supposed to be her 16th birthday instead.
>>15279401216?With THOSE "breasts"?What is she?Candace Flynn?Stacy Hirano?
>>152795225I honestly can't believe this is canon!!How DID they get away with this?
>>152780947>Have an episode where Tommy is afraid of water because of a traumatic event >Traumatic even is something that happened slightly after Rugrats (He has a full head of hair in the flashback) and not the various episodes and movies he nearly died cuz of something water related
>>152795225where is his penis
