Is it bad that I now want to hear a Bosco auto-tune song?

Actually, it sort of occurred to me how badass that would be a while after I typed that.

why are you attacking me, i'm not the one who posted naked fan art of you on 4chan

Why is Jimmy's voice high pitched? It's not high-pitched in the game.

And I hate to say it, but I could do better voices than that, and I suuuuuuuuuck.

You know, abridged series tend to veer from it's original counterpart, making it parody...

But I think that this has potential. I watched it twice and found it to be pretty funny.

Is true, Weevil and Rex don't really sound like Beavis and Butthead.

I want Bosco to sing the Bed Intruder Song

Katana · 01/05/2011, 03:40 pm

I dunno. Doesn't quite work to me...I don't quite think the writing or voice is to blame especially, it's just that trying to take a funny series and redubbing it to be funnier is putting a lot of expectations on yourself. I generally think it works better when you do it to something meant to be taken seriously.

Player_2 · 01/09/2011, 06:30 am

It was funnier the third time I watched it. The first time, I had to stop because the voices were driving me nuts. The second time, I watched the full thing, but the voices were still hard to listen to, so I was left mostly feeling annoyed by it. The third time, though, I was used to the voices and could appreciate the jokes.

I didn't like jabs at the quality of the Telltale Games, because I LIKE the Telltale Games. Still, there were bits that managed to make me laugh.

TOP THREE FUNNY MOMENTS:

1) "DRIVING!"

2) "Aw, HELL naw. First the KKK, and now this?!"

3) "I have got to stop taking drugs." (Only really because I love the totally flat way it's said.)

HONORABLE MENTION:
"We'll probably be able to snap them out of it by reasoning with them."
(*bonk* *bop* *bonk*)
"... Or we can do that."

I think I'd like to see more episodes, mostly because I'd like to see an abridged version of the Devil's Playhouse. Also, since I've only recently played through Donkey Kong Country Returns, I'm still in that state of mind where any outside references to the game makes me slightly giddy, so I liked the use of the hypnosis music.

(So basically, I mostly liked it. It was ok.)

Oh my no.

I physically had to turn it off after the first line. It's bad enough wanting to be like LittleKuriboh but when the very first thing you do is a stolen line it just will not work.

Also Max's voice... ugh. LK works because he can make his characters sound almost like what they did in the cartoon. I'm sorry but your Max voice was just... grating. It physically hurt me hearing it.

On the plus side this thread has been most entertaining. It reads like a 4chan spin off series: OP gives self promoting link, is quickly found out. Hilarity ensues.

Apart from that people seem to have taken to it. You've been given a lot of advice here OP and you should definitely use it because although I couldn't bring myself to watch it, it sounds like it did have potential. A bit of spit and polish and you could be on to something.

Well, good news, Zonino. What happened in episode 2 of the actual series will happen here, because I found a new voice actor for Max!

In future episodes, you'll soon be hearing Gohaku2 breathe life into the lagomorph!

i liked it, are you going to do any more?

Oy, I missed this comment didn't I?
*big blush* Heheh, well I did my best for the first time around! I tried to focus more on 'getting the spirit' of Max rather than the voice itself. I will continue to work at it though! I really like the concept of abridged series.

Also, I do believe it's possible to abridge almost anything. Bo-bo-bo Bo-bo Bo-bo-bo is pushing it but it can be done!

Also, lattsam lied about doing all of the female voices in the following episodes... *cough*

That's right. I'm sticking to just Sybil, thanks.

Progress on episode 2 is coming along really smoothly now. I think I've got the episode halfway done already, and I expect to post a complete version before the week is over.

I'll give you a hint: the episode has something to do with abridged series in general...

Watch this space for updates!

LOL! I didn't know he's still doing Sybil's voice! This is going to be interesting, and I'm really excited to see the new episode.
