I have terrible news: Sweet Pete had a bottle of dip next to his eraser among his torture devices
Let's start with the basics, Roger Rabbit we see him at the beginning of the film when Dale tells his story, we don't see him again but that simple cameo is enough to spark some questions
1.- Is this the same universe as the 1988 film? 2.- Did the events of the film played out in the same way? 3.- Is the movie a movie in this new movie?
If we asume that both movies take place in the same universe we run into a problem, in Roger Rabbit it is said that toons cannot die, this being the reason why they make such dangerous stunts that would kill any human that tried it, however, in the new movie we see both titular characters afraid for their lives, if this was indeed the exact same universe, there would be no worries
Another alternative is that the events of who framed Roger Rabbit happened but in a slightly different way, in this new universe for example we wouldn't have the plot point of acid that can kill toons since you wouldn't need acid to do that
We could theorize that the movie is a movie inside a movie, intentionally confusing wording aside, what i'm saying is that in the new Chip and Dale movie universe, who framed Roger Rabbit would be just a regular crime movie.
Now if they are not in the same universe that doesn't mean that WFRB is a movie inside of a movie, it could simply be that Roger's career mentioned in his movie happened, just not the events of the movie, this could also be the case in alternatives 1 and 2, in the sense that Roger is known for his acting outside of the movie.
Now let's talk about everyone's favorite hedgehog, Ugly Sonic! when Chip and Dale ask for his help specifying that they need it fast Ugly Sonic says that going fast is Sonic's job, and that he's slow, this of course implies the existence of good looking Sonic, but exactly which Sonic?
There have been many Sonic shows, the adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog (Series and Ova of the same name) Sonic Underground, Sonic X, Sonic Boom, in a near future Sonic Prime, and, of course, the Sonic Movie.
We know that the Sonic movieSonic surely exist since ugly Sonic does, but what about the others? if they all exist this brings a lot of interesting possibilities, for example, both Sonic SatAM (Saturday-AM) and the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog aired at the same time, both starting in 1993 with AoStH ending 2 years after SatAM in 1996, the same year the Sonic OVA came out, the Sonics in the series are very similar so they could be the same cartoon in universe, but Sonic from the OVA looks different, with a design similar to Japanese Sonic art while the series use the Americanized design, having this 2 Sonics which would likely have very different personalities and stories considering how much Sega of America changed.
Regional difference aside, we are still left with at the very least 7 Sonics, and i say at the very list because this transitions into my next talking point: video game animation
What about video game Sonics? or video game cutscenes? are those also recorded the same way as cartoons?
Most video game cutscenes are animated with the game engine, and the animations are recreated in game, have you wondered why some of the cutscenes in your games look way nicer than the rest? because those were pre-animated and are played as a video, while the rest are made in game
Alternative 1: In game cutscenes don't exists as cartoons, pre made cutscenes do, under this, for example, we would get some extra Sonics from CD and Unleashes' intros for example, maybe some from the promotional Origins, Mania and Team Sonic Racing animations, and all other cutscenes
Alternative 2: Every character in a cutscene exists, not very likely in my eyes since this implies that the video game character themselves are alive, why am i even writing this it doesn't make sense?
Alternative 3: None of them do
This image from LA Noire is the best transition i have
The Uncanny Valley, feeling disturbed from seeing something that looks human, but something's off
In case you forgot we are talking about the Chip and Dale movie, halfway through the film we see the titular characters enter the uncanny valley, a place were every uncanny character from the early 2000's lives, but, they specifically mention they being sent there
Sent, very interesting wording, it implies that someone wanted to get rid of them, so they sent them to this isolated place, is this cartoon segregation? are other types of cartoons segregated? were 3D cartoons the victims of cartoon racism back in the day? could an uncanny civil rights movement happen? Why is racism giving me less material to talk about than Sonic? is my sleep depravation finally getting through?
The posible inequality of people and cartoons in the years before who framed roger rabbit and this movie could make for a great plot of Disney has the balls to do it
My word machine isn't working so no good written ending ok bye!
MORE ALICE ART, also a preview of the revamping I am working on for emerald's design.
Emerald is Alice's primary weapon that I have designed prior, and it has three specific forms it can freely morph between as Alice needs to: Wand, Scythe, and Blaster Mode. Blaster mode is the one pictured here.
I will add that Emerald's blade is meant to almost glow a virescent (ha, crescent) green, a little uranium looking.
My favorite magical girl, if y'all couldn't tell.
That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science
Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?
your la-nb.

universe can i maybe have a thunder storm please
Rose Thorns Cookie.
yes those are rose buds in her hair
My boy insisted I post him, so here is the full sprite edit. Some extra behind the scenes stuff under the cut!
design credit to @fishymom-art
Would you believe I had to completely recreate the sprite for this?
I made him with the "paper cut out" method I use sometimes IRL, so not everything is complete, sodjishphf
so everything is individual parts, including parts I felt I had to finish like his neck ruffle

The library was by far the quietest place in the whole manor, nobody came around here except when scrambling for extra research material they couldn't just find on the internet. This was quite rare nowadays, aside from old manuscripts or books with singular copies that were miraculously preserved in this place. It was peaceful, the only sounds being the turning pages and the soft crackling of the fireplace.
After long days of looking into rather morbid or occult subjects, I liked to hide away in there, on the couch by the fireplace, reading whatever book caught my eye. Sometimes the books would bore me to sleep, other times I'd be so absorbed that I'd read until the book was over. A small slice of home to me.
There was only ever a slight hiccup, a certain annoyingly curious eldritch man. He visited when he came to inform me of someone else requesting my presence, or just to spout some asinine nonsense about immortality. I respected him in concept, but frankly, I could do without his presence.
So there I was, reading through a book all about oceanic life in the depths of the deepest trenches, while the outside world was only illuminated by the full moon. The only thing to interrupt that comfortable silence was the library door creaking open and a looming presence approaching.
"Why exactly have you come to pester my relaxation today, Alu?" I could practically hear his smirk as he approached without even glancing back at him.
"Miss Alice, do you know what day of the year it is? I think this should be the one day you don't coop yourself up in here." I glanced back at him, raising a tentative eyebrow.
"Its October 31st…surely you don't celebrate halloween" he merely chuckled at my statement.
"I quite like walking through the streets, barely worth a glance to celebrating youths" I could only scoff at him.
"Of course, everyone knows you always look like a halloween horror monster." He stepped closer to me, sitting himself down on the other end of the couch.
"I'll take that as a compliment, coming from someone like you."
"Whats that supposed to mean?" I said as I set into a glare in his direction.
"Means what ever you want it to mean, Little Miss."
"Don't call me that."
"Right Right, I'll try my hardest to refrain" he waved his hand in the air as he spoke "hows that new book?"
"Pretty boring and technical…I likely won't finish it."
"Oh well, Seras insisted on pumpkins for carving, if you want to take out some frustration on a helpless gourd."
I set my book down and stood "sure, i'll disembowel a pumpkin."
He stood as well, and I followed him out of the library and down the hall to the kitchen, where Seras was already eagerly dumping out the guts of a pumpkin into a bowl.
I barely spoke to him as i carefully removed the top of my own pumpkin, and dug out every bit of guts within.
"What kind of carving are you planning on?" Seras asked inquisitively, ever the chipper one of us.
"Just some 'spooky' stuff, bats, a cat, a moon…nothing particularly difficult"
I looked over at alucards pumpkin, watching him stab a face into its front without removing a single bit of the insides, orange guts spilling out of its 'mouth' on to the table.
"I don't think that's how it's supposed to be done…" was all I could muster while staring at the sight.
"Doesn't it look far more interesting?"
"Yeah, its about as interesting as a crime scene" that made both vampires in the room give a small snicker.
"Yes, that seems to be true" was all he said, before we continued our tasks without another word.
Eventually, we all had completed our masterpieces, taking them out to sit on the front porch. Seras, a relatively standard spooky pumpkin, smiling with a row of roundish fangs. Mine, a scene straight out of a classic halloween poster, with bats flying over a forest with a single cat at center stage. Then there was Alucards, a pumpkin with a twisted sharp fanged smile, its guts still spilling out of the cuts, and a noticeable gun carving on the side.
I stared at his creation "its…missing something" I looked up at him, snapping my fingers in realization.
"Need something li-" i swiped his hat, plopping it down on the pumpkin.
"There, now it's perfect." He let out an amused chuckle, ruffling my hair with his hand.
"I'll let it go, just this once." With how his voice darkened a bit, I could assume he wasn't kidding.
I looked up at him, flashing a smile and a scoff, with no apology in sight.
"Well, I’ll be going on my walk now…do you want to accompany me Miss?"
I glanced back, Seras seemingly already left to relay tonight's humorous events to Sir Intega.
"Fine, more interesting than deep sea fish."
With that, we set off into that lively dark night, as I rushed to follow his longer strides.
