Yeah it was pretty gud also the ending was surprising. Is this the first time they showed their mom?

I heard there was a gooftroop and darkwing duck reference in the first episode, but I missed it.

What was it?

It's a great kid's show. I hope it has a long run. However I personally won't be watching it. There are no substantial waifus or progressive themes to justify endless internet autism.

Goof troop
Tail spin
Darkwing duck

I was quite pleased they mentioned other shows even if they only named the cities

There are a few references on here.

Mentions of St. Canard of Darkwing Duck and Spoonerville of Gooftroop.

So I think my only question is why did they question that all the things Scrooge did were fake? I get thinking Donald was his sidekick would be weird for them, but the only thing that prompted Dewey's "it's fake" attitude was because Scrooge dissed his family, which seemed like a leapl.

Officially in an animated work? Yes.

Because he didn't come off as a badass globe-trotting adventurer like they were expecting.

How does one pirate the sky?

Donald was such an uncool and no-risk dude, no way that can be true.

Probably by threatening to shoot down aeroplanes with missiles if there's no ransom money being paid.

Magnificenanimously.

A few noticable problems off the bat:
>the triplets are annoying as fuck. Probably the worst incarnation of HDL since Quack Pack. Always yelling, never listening to anyone, and shown to be grossly incompetent. I was cheering for Dewey to die in that scene where Donald has to keep saving his skin.
>Webby is similarity bad, instead this time she's OVERLY competent (except in social situations for some reason because women "comedy" XD) Basically Mabel 2.0 except with Wendy's physical skills, making the ultimate bland female character
>Donald's voice sounds super off and can make his scenes hard to sit through (and this us coming from a guy who loves classic Donald shorts)
>pacing is really fucking bad. They're trying to jam in too much content into 22 minutes. It just feels bloated and the opposite of a good adventure.
>animation quality is subpar. Character design is really bad in everyone except Scrooge, Donald and Launchpad. Fell for the 'silhouettes" meme and made characters like Glomgold fat for no reason. Ugly ass angular designs that spit in the face of Barks' work.
>terrible soundtrack. Please try humming a memorable tune that isn't the butchured theme song
>going with a hacky adventure setting like Atlantis for your first episode wasn't a good idea

Of course people will defend it in the name of "fun" but these people are retards who defend Rick and Morty season 3.

They went in expecting a badass adventure hero and got a crotchety old man. When they saw the painting depicting Donald as a badass too, they naturally came to the conclusion that all of the Scrooge legends were fabricated bullshit.

>Look ma, I posted it again!

In animated form yeah.

Calling it now, Della got possessed by the spirit of/got turned into Magica De Spell. This being the reason why Donald had to raise his nephew by himself and the reason why Donald and Scrooge are on bad terms with each other.

Pretty much the same plot twist as Shovel Knight.

I think theirs a torrent for it somewhere.

Donaldsd is such a sellout.

Disney Animated Universe when, we know we be getting Darkwing Duck, but what if a more modern version of Baloo and the other tailspin cast appear. Also Goofy and Max show up in a special crossover as one of Donald's old friends that bonded due to them being single parents/guardians.

Who is the DIrty Dingus?

A a stream or use the mega file.

It took me almost 20+ years to realize he was a red wolf from Cuba. His accent and animal species was just so ambiguous.

The new MLP movie will answer that. It has anthro parrot sky pirates

He's acting like how Donald Duck acted with Scrooge on their second meeting in Don Rosa's story.

That said, I like this timeline better, where Donald had adventures with Scrooge before he got the nephews.

Dirty Dingus McDuck.

This.

I really wanted to like it but didn't. Won't be following it.

Got the mega link?

>red wolf from Cuba

What? I always thought he was a fox of some sort and the accent was just because he was the silly villain and was a pirate

But hey.. If the new duckverse has a tie-in with Talespin.. I am all for it

Does he ever wash his Dingus?

webby is cute

>22+1400=87?
Is she trying to figure out his age?

>Duck/Goose crossbreeding is canon
What about DuckxDog mixing?

would she rather with Donald or with Russian wolves?

Here a giant 1080p file.

Porn fucking WHEN??

No just regular girl math.

jk

I miss the butler

All of this is wrong

Man, I don't remember Donald being this hard to understand. I mean, I just finished going through Kingdom Hearts last year, but I swear he's way more legible there than here.

Probably some kind of silly inside joke where one of the comic writers fucked up and referenced Scrooge being around during some event in the 1400s, not realizing what year it actually happened in.

This is my only real criticism of the show. I genuinely can't understand a fucking word of what he says. Did he get a new voice actor or something?

Use the subs.

But most of what he siad is the opposite of the truth.

Especially his stupid rant about Webby being competent, she is literally on the same level as the triplet.

Why is the mom of the three fucks almost never in any comics (atleast when i was reading them like 5-6 years ago)? I always thought she was dead or something lol. Also where is the dad?

Here's some actual criticism.

They crammed too much in that special and revealed the super natural stuff too quick, sapping out all the mystery and wonder.

Starting with Atlantis is a fucking bad idea. In the original comics, discovering a lost city was a huge fucking deal, even for Scrooge.

Same guy who's been playing him since 1985, and only the second voice actor to play him ever.

I could understand him for the most part, a few words here and there were hard to make out. But It didn't ruin the watching experiance for me.

Because I don't think anyone other than the European comics really give a shit about them beyond being an explanation for where the triplets came from.

Thats good because if they start with heavy shit that means the rest will be even bigger, Can't wait for Scrooge and Donald to conquer another galaxy

That actually and hopefully means that there's even more awesome adventures and stuff to be seen.

I wonder why the fuck can't I understand him then.

For me, every time Donald spoke, it was like, [unintelligible screeching].

there will be no race mixing in duck tales. duck and goose is like british and german

They probably did Atlantis first because people have heard of it.

I think it only works if both are from the same taxonomical Class. Duck/goose is fine because both are birds, cow/dog is fine because both are mammals, snake/alligator is fine because both are reptiles, etc.

I actually think its okay. See, Scrooge and Donald had already their share of adventures, and we dont need the same old ones we had in the first series. We can go to other places now.

>/fowl/

Can they still fugg?

But the writers shot themselves in the foot with this.

These big adventure stories need their time to develop. I just hate how everything happened so quickly.

Donald having his adventures with Scrooge without the nephews is kinda a new thing they added to DuckTales. I'm not sure if that was really needed.

That's because whenever we hear Donald talk in other media, it's only in short simple phrases.
Ducktales 2017 is where he starts talking in longer more complex phrases.
Then again, we live in an age where we can watch everything with subtitles, and set them on or off, so it's not really that much of a problem, I guess.

Oh, for sure, there just won't be any offspring.

Is this a reboot, a soft-reboot or a straight up sequel?

We shall see how the writers handle it with the new storylines. I don't want a simple retread of Ducktales 1986, so I'm eager to see what stories the writers can pull off.

Reboot. Both this and the old series start with the first time the triplets meet Scrooge.

Somewhere in between reboot and sequel. Looks like they're going for an angle where some of the old adventures happened but with Donald Scrooge and the boys' mom, which led to Scrooge getting fantastically rich. Now they are going to go on new adventures with donald and the nephews.

Since the first two episodes production-wise were aired as one hour-long episode ("Woo-oo!"), why the fuck was the premiere edited so that the theme song randomly shows up halfway through? Why not either use the theme song at the very beginning or just save it for the next episode (the first standalone one airing in September)?

It's a reboot.

Sure, but I'm just hoping for a better cinematic experience. If they're going in Atlantis, I wished they spent more time actually exploring the city.

I think DuckTales could have worked better as a series of movies as opposed to being a tv series. If they're going to resolve every big adventure within 1 episode, it's kind of a bummer. I want adventure arcs to be at least 2 episode long.

I barely watched DuckTales so I don't know. I'm interested in this version because it seems closer to the Bark comics on the surface.

This goes in contradiction with Carl Barks and Don Rosa though, where Donald never had any scrooge adventures without his nephews.

I couldn't understand a word he was saying at all either.

I mean, as said, he's perfectly legible in Kingdom Hearts, with all the illegible nonsense going on there. I'd say it's Anselmo's age getting to him, but he sounds fine even in the more recent KH games.

I think they chose to up the quacking for some reason.

>Kingdom Hearts

>Webby becomes Mabel 2.0

How do you react?

It's a modern thing, like in Japanese cartoon shows. The theme song is played at the start of the first episode. And since the theme song is about showing the whole gang being together to solve mysteries and rewriting histories and whatever, and the second half is the meaty adventure-mystery heavy part, I guess it can make sense to put it there.

By dropping the show.

I don't know about comics, but in cartoons the story is she sent them to Donald's to visit, and then they just kind of never left and she was never mentioned again.

Every adventure story kinda needs its own background and context. I'm hoping that the next episodes slow down the pace a bit, and take their time to develop.

By being glad that "2.0" doesn't mean "copy" but an improved version of the prior.

>I'd say it's Anselmo's age getting to him, but he sounds fine even in the more recent KH games.
The guy's only 57, so even age probably wouldn't be much of an issue. I agree though, I was surprised I couldn't understand him very well.

So, Darkwing Duck reboot when?

Eventually I'm sure. Everything must be rebooted in this age.

>St Canard mentioned
>Darkwing will be making an appearance on Ducktales this season
Very soon, I'll bet.

>Directed by Hideo Kojima

He's confirmed to appear in this show at least. I could conceivably see this happening:

>Della returns from whatever happened to her in season 2 and becomes the new Ducktales pilot.
>Launchpad goes to St. Canard.

You also have to be reminded that these are kids comics. Don Rosa thought about tackling the subject but he knew it would be a depressing story, so in the end he didn't.

Well, a European comic did attempt to solve this mystery by sending her to space, but due to time dilation, she won't be back for the next 10 years in duck universe, but I don't like this explanation.

Simple answer, kids played a prank on their dad which sent him to the hospital, their mom disowned them and sent them to his brother.

tailspin

I heard that the writers can use pretty much all the anthro Disney Afternoon shows except for Rescue Rangers. Is there a source for that?

Cool, stay out of the thread then and find something you enjoy.

I'm not sure that Della needs to be in this show other than being in flashbacks. I mean, should we trot out Donald's parents too?

The heart of these stories have always been about the uncle - nephew dynamic. You don't need the parents.

I just wish we were getting Howard the Duck in this as well. He can easily be HDL's dad who has crippling depression and resorts to drinking after the loss of his wife. He blames it on both Scrooge and Donald, but his mental state is not the best and is the reason Donald is raising the boys. Of course this will never happen on Disney XD.

new copy and pasta?

>I barely watched DuckTales so I don't know. I'm interested in this version because it seems closer to the Bark comics on the surface.

The only reason to ever remake anything is to take the elements you enjoyed from the original and then do things in your own way, not just retread something that already exists.

The Barks comics are already good as they are and I'm glad they aren't just doing a frame for frame recreation of them. Leaves room to actually be surprised and have things that are unexpected happen since the characters, their relationships and even the world itself has been taken in a new direction.

>This goes in contradiction with Carl Barks and Don Rosa though, where Donald never had any scrooge adventures without his nephews.
There would be no point in doing 1:1 the comics. If you want that just read the comics.

>obsessed with mysteries
>socially awkward
>looks up to grizzled older adventurer as mentor

Webby is Dipper.

If she were Mabel she'd be doing traditionally girly things in a craaaazy way, and this is coming from someone who enjoyed all of Gravity Falls and liked Mabel as the comic relief character she was meant to be.

Donald's parents have been mentioned in the very first episode.

They weren't really mentioned or even focused on. Webby just had pictures of them on her board.

They want to take this in a new direction, cool, but you know, you can still do that while still being an adaptation and without breaking Carl's continuity. I'm just not that into changing the timeline to introduce Della as a past adventurer.

It can be an adaptation and has enough original content on its own.

I meant only as references rather than actually appearing. It's rumoured that Hortense and Quackmore passed away a long time ago. I don't think they need to appear other than in potential flashbacks.

I think it's more important to look at it as not just seeing the Nephew's mother, but also exploring Donald's twin/Scrooge's niece. Keeping her to flashbacks is probably the best way for her impact to last, but if they build her up right it could still keep with the tone of the show.

Barks never even featured Della in his stories at all.
