We've had the same Gravity Falls hate circlejerks too many times, let's try something different

What went RIGHT with the series?

Dipper existing.

the buildup

>comedic timing
lots of the jokes are on the money when it comes to timing
>atmosphere
a lot of the backgrounds and setpieces are really good to look at, and convey the feel of the scene really well

checked

Fanfic potential

Why would anyone hate Gravity falls?

I didn't mean that kind of hate circlejerk

I meant the "Mabel is shit" and "Alex is a hack" circlejerking seen in previous threads

This. And then it all went to shit.

Jesus how can people say with a stright face "Mabel was a good character"
What an absolute selfish piece of shit

So the discussion and eventual consensus of objective facts?

Something something cute and quirky

Bill.

Pretty much everything except Mabel's character arc.

She was a joke that got old. She was great until she wasn't.

She was pretty much comic relief, and attempts to make her more than that usually failed.

Nah, just winning of feel faggots.

>Neurotic Nerdboy MC is a good thing

>Winning
Yes, I agree.

...

Oh shit, someone actually screencapped that post I made?

Everything. Except the ending.

Not really

Sup Forums's like an American history textbook when it comes to the narrative on those topics. Facts that would contradict the preferred narrative are conveniently omited.

Incidentally, here's a fan story idea I had

Dipper and Wendy are hanging out together. Dipper accidentally turns Wendy into a zombie, possibly by her accidentally jabbing her hand with a zombie tooth left lying on the floor from the first zombie incident. As a zombie, Wendy would still be casual and laid-back, while also wanting very much to eat Dipper's brain. Dipper has to frantically search for the ingredients to the zombie cure himself. Eventually he does, and gets Wendy to drink it. Wendy turns back to normal, though feeling pretty nauseous from the cure. Dipper profusely apologizes, but Wendy just shrugs the whole incident off as an accident and says that he doesn't need to apologize. Wendy then sheepishly apologizes for trying to eat Dipper's brain and the two laugh it off.

Would you rather have comics that are..

-A continuation of where the show left off with Dipper and Mabel in Piedmont and Stanley and Stanford at sea

-More adventures in Gravity Falls, maybe pre-Weirdmageddon or Dipper and Mabel returning to Gravity Falls the following summer

Those first 12 episodes where it played a lot like an animated update of Eerie Indiana but with its own strong and very distinct identity.

Outside of Over The Garden Wall, I think this is the closest a cartoon has ever gotten to exactly what I want out a show.

It's true though

The "Twin Peaks for kids" idea is pretty neat.

Maybe one day I'll get to see it done right.

>-A continuation of where the show left off with Dipper and Mabel in Piedmont and Stanley and Stanford at sea
Also make it more edgy

Do you guys remember that Disney XD poll where you had to choose between Mabel and Dipper, and Mabel ended up losing by 1%?

We were choosing pic related, right? Bill attempting to kill Mabel first.

Yeah, that's the one he was going to pick.

Quite a lot of fanfic explores the possibility of him going through with it

Why?

Better than Mabel

You know, if they were never going to bring up who broke the rift or how it broke again after it happened, what was the point of having it be Mabel?

Didn't he kinda suck at the end?

Pacifica's massive breasts.

Don't forget this one

Grunkle stans arc i liked

jokes were good

It's time

Next summer!

Pilot animation blew me away.

c'mon man, you can't just dump straight up pinecest like that...

you gotta ease into it. start with a little ambiguous jealousy like pic related.

let the chemistry work itself up.

>thinking you can actually stop Sup Forums from unironically hating mabel even for one second

Doesn't hurt to try
Dipper probably has more reasons to hate her than we know about, but still loves her

bump from a masked user
a bit overkill isn't it?

The art style is cute and the animation top-quality.

mabel a cute
Stanford is genuinely compelling.
The jokes are funny.

Some wendip would be nice as well

>mfw I was a huge AT fan and always told to myself I won't watch GF because of the hate we got from the fanbase
>still followed the Weirdmageddon threads because they were pretty cool
>catched up this week and bingewatched the series
>realize I missed probably one of the best hypes ever
I want to cry tbqh

GF was overhyped m8, you missed nothing at all. Also kill yourself for being a pussy

So, it's basically confirmed that a comic is on the way, right? I mean, what else could Alex want with fan artists? Why would it be a bonus if they make comics? It pretty much has to be a comic.

Also, I hope it's basically Gravity Falls: The Lost Episodes. Basically a comic of dropped plotlines and things they didn't have time to include in the show. Also, maybe some stuff to give Wendy some character development.

Nah, contrarian retards like you are the ones who need to commit suicide

Fuck off m8

I'm still pretty new to all this, can you give me a quick recap on those supposed comics/fan artists? It seems like half of the fanbase heard one thing and the other half another.

Don't tell Hirsch.

...

YES!

...

How much porn did he get?

He liked a post that said something to the tune of
> Stop sending him artists that do porn. You're recommending him people who produce child pornography.
So I assume he got some

The post said

>Stop sending him LITERAL child pornography.

They said "literal".

oh yeah, I forgot about that
But yeah, it was completely stupid. I mean, I definitely understand him not want fan artist who do that stuff considering it's a Disney Cartoon, but calling it literal child pornography is absolutely absurd.

Time to post em if you gottem

He should have hired Limey.

...

Does she plan to fuck the pig?

he probably would have, had Doublepines not existed

Oh, no don't get me wrong. I don't hate mabel either. All I'm saying is, let's be real here. We're at Sup Forums and people here hate mabel. To the point of actually wanting to see her die horribly. Possibly slow AND horribly. Sometimes it's just shitposting or circlejerking but most of them genuinely hate her, and for how she was written as infallible. And try as we might, nothing's really gonna change that. Ever.

Unless of course they make a 3rd season where she has a redemption arc and maybe continue all the lore, feed more inspiration for new pinecest art to be drawn, more Wendip, more Padipica, more pineswest even. Hell maybe even an explanation as for what that giant head was doing at the lake and all the other strangeness in GF. But that's never gonna happen.

Dipper and Mabel's "happy fun time summer" has to end eventually.

You take that back! DP was a gift. A gift too good for this world.

...

>circlejerks
fuck off to reddit

Wow that was fast. First post best post.

Wait for real? Is there a link to that or something because her getting picked to be obliterated by Bill because the people voted for it just sounds hilarious and too good to be true.

Knowing that she was almost killed in some spectacularly gruesome way, and would've likely been Weirdmageddon's sole casualty, makes me feel a bit better.

What arc?

It was right after Wendy's arc.

A reboot series where Alex does what he couldn't do on the show
And maybe not have Alex involved with it

I've never been a big fan of GF so I avoided the generals. Why do people actually hate her, because she's random or something? I actually liked her for having the positive mind of a child, even though she was really selfish at some times.

She never learned any lessons that stuck. She's kind of a shitty sister. She caused the apocalypse at not only did she get away with it, she was actually rewarded for it in a roundabout way.

I see, pretty valid points.

>The main characters
>the title track
>the mystery
>the humor
>The McGucket red hering

>limited edition journal 3 supposed to be made with REAL parchment
is this some kind of meme? who the fuck believes this?

Has anyone a pdf of the journal?

I have a physical copy of the Journal, currently reading it. Going to scan it most likely in the future. Debating on whether I should use my Rebel t2i camera or just use the canon scanner I have. Using the scanner might be difficult since I don't want to destroy the binding. Taking pictures of each page will be difficult as well because they don't want to stay flat, plus I gotta get the lighting right (and I don't have lighting equipment)

There will never be another shota as good as Dipper in our lifetime. One so great only comes along but once in a millennia. Oh well, at least Alex did something right.

Except that way more than one character was at fault for the apocalypse.

>She never learned any lessons that stuck.

It's almost like she's 12 years old or something.

>It's the same post again

Dipper learned lessons that stuck.

Plus cartoon 12 year olds almost never act like actual 12 year olds

...

I think exploring the various weirdness of the town was fun, one episode would be a generic monster inna woods and the next would be cursed statues coming to life. I don't like the word "comfy" to describe shows because it kinda seems like a non-answer, but the atmosphere of GF was pretty chill. Made you want to go to that abandoned mill at the edge of town and see if you could uncover any cults or mysterious creatures you know?

Plus Bill as an antagonist worked well for the most part. He was always a threat, and had enough charisma that you looked forward to Bill episodes.

I just said that the points are valid, not that they're more or less true relative to how the other characters acted. Nor did I say that I agree with all of them.

Dipper is very mature for his age though.

Same could be said for I'm sure Mabel learns the important lessons later in life, and GF just happens to cover a time when she didn't. We don't need to see everything.

Yeah, the difference is that comes up and is always defended while the detractors fall back on the same tired shit that gets refuted only to be brushed off or unreplied to.

You're literally saying that off screen speculation excuses it. Holy shit just stop, you got to be baiting.

>gets refuted

This literally never happens. Goalpost moving =/= refuting an argument. Most of Sup Forums literally forgot or conveniently ignore details that go against the "everything is Mabel's fault" narrative.

It literally always does happen. Which is why people are so sick of these threads. It's not even an argument anymore and just exists for people to pretend to be retarded or be actual retards.

not him, but you must be autistic to expect everyone to evolve exactly at the same time/age. I know this is a cartoon but still.

Nice try, but most people just moved on with their lives along with whatever feelings they had on the finale.

This

Dipper might be mature for his age, but if you think that's how every 12 year old behaves, top kek

0/10

Nice Quads!
