Scene Review: Fight Scene from "The Pebble and the Penguin"

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

I was watching The Pebble and the Penguin on my mom's DVD player a few weeks ago, and I come across the movie's fight scene.

What would make it better than to talk about the fight scene.
Luckily, I got many requests to do something called a scene review, where you can talk about a scene, and say whether you liked it or not.
Looking back now, I may not have gone in depth with this particular scene in my review of The Pebble and the Penguin. So, today I'm here to bring you two things: an analysis of this fight scene, and then my Top 5 interesting things I found in this scene (by "interesting," I mean awkward and/or worth mentioning).
-And sorry if the DVD Player itself is in some of these pics. I was trying my hardest to get some good quality here.

So first, let's dive into my analysis!

Analysis:

So the scene starts with three kid birds flying to Drake's lair,

because they heard that the villain Drake has kidnapped Marina to be his bride.

Once the young birds get there, they see that Drake is hauling Marina deeper into his lair.

Just then, Hubie (the movie's protagonist) arrives on the scene and challenges Drake to a duel, of which Drake immediately accepts.
So the face-off begins with... Drake picking up his pecs...?
-What guy in their right mind would do that before fighting somebody?

So the two are running towards each other.
-See how Drake is leaning forward while running.

He's trying to Sonic-the-Hedgehog his way into battle.
-Also see how Hubie already has his fists up and towards his opponent. Not the best idea...

-Then we see Drake point his left elbow towards his opponent. He grabs his left wrist to pull his arm back to where the elbow is pointing forward; thus creating a 90-degree angle while he's running. Uh... I have a bad feeling about that...
As you can imagine,

Drake sends Hubie into a pillar,

knocking him out temporarily. For some reason, it takes Hubie a good while to recover from the blow.

After recovering though, Hubie steps up and goes after Drake.
Now here's where the real action happens: if you study the fighting strategies of both characters, you'll definitely know what to expect in this fight. (Now mind you, I'm no martial arts expert, but I've seen this fight scene so many times already, and I've studied many of the moves.)

-Notice that Drake- his choice of attack- uses his fists to attack his opponent and to disintegrate parts of his stairway.

-Notice that Hubie waits until after Drake makes his attack, and then he kicks Drake in the face.
The first kick to the face sends Drake to the foot of the stairs where Marina is standing. Marina tries to flee, but Drake grabs her by her ankle and tries to pull her to him.
Hubie steps in and bites Drake's foot.

-LOL. Drake's reaction to Hubie biting his foot... Hey! I can do that too!

You see?
So the fight continues. Drake is having more misses, while Hubie always meets his target. Drake, at one point, lunges at Hubie,

but Hubie delivers a powerful punch

and sends his opponent falling from the stairs with a final kick to the chest.

After that, we see Hubie and Marina reunite with each other, and then Hubie and Rocko reuniting with each other, and then...
-Somebody must have said "Deus ex machina" or something...

...because Drake ends up returning, even though he looks banged up, and his cape is all ripped to shreds. He throws a giant boulder at our heroes, causing the entire lair to collapse. And Drake dies. How?

Death by rocks crushing him... even though they don't show blood- that's a really hard way to go.

Now for my analysis...
This fight scene was very brief. However, it still provided some good action.

Now, as promised, I will give you my Top 5 interesting things in this fight scene. Before we start, I want to say that unlike my other Top 10 (or other number) lists, this one will be brief, because we've already covered some stuff. So let's get started.

5. How did Hubie get way up there on top of the tower?!

4. Drake's brute strength

3. The fight scene doesn't exceed one minute. (at least 43 seconds- I timed)

2. Marina doesn't run away when she needs to!

1. Like I said before, what guy in their right mind would pick up their pecs before a fight?

Well, I hoped you enjoyed this first-ever scene review. Stay tuned for a scene review for a certain scene in LarryBoy and the Rumor Weed... COMING SOON!
-Yeah! Watch me do a scene review on LarryBoy and the Rumor Weed! This one on this fight scene was hard, because it was awkward!

"Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 2- TIME" Youtube Video Review

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

Ever since I did my review on the Youtube video Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, I decided to do a review on its sequel, which came out more than a year ago- Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 2- TIME.

Opening Scene:

So after the title card, we see our three characters from last time sitting in front of a TV, which is having a spaz-out attack with the black-and-white screen.

Hairy Red Guy: "Come on, guys. Stop monkeying around. We only have five minutes until our show's on."
-The TV is spazzing out because their TV program isn't on? Guys, there's this thing called a remote. Why not use your remote to surf other channels while waiting for your program to start?
Crow: "It's not enough time!"

-What do you mean that's not enough time? Five minutes sure beats five hours!
Now, as if waiting for a TV show to start, even for five minutes, isn't awkward enough...
Clock: "There's always time for a song."
-A talking clock? Well, I guess we can expect that, even after the last time with the talking writing pad. And to be fair, at least this clock doesn't move around or dance or...
(the clock dances to the beat of a clock)

-F***!
Clock: (singing) "Time is a tool you can put on the wall, or wear it on your wrist..."

So the clock starts singing about time...

-Oh look! A family picture!

-Look! The Yellow Guy's painting of a clown... that was painted all over with that black paint/sludge from the original video.

-Oh look! A picture that says nothing... No really!
Yellow Guy: "What's the time?"
Clock: (singing) "It's a quarter 'til nine..."

-Actually, a quarter 'til nine is 8:45, not 9:15. Well, to be fair, this video was made by Brits, so I won't dwell in that too deeply.
Clock: (singing) "Time to have a bath!"
-Um... that was random.

On with the next scene!

Clock: (singing) "Time is a ruler to measure the day. It doesn't go backwards, but only one way..."
Then, out of nowhere, the clock just takes our three characters into a space-or-time-continuum type thing...
Clock: (singing loudly) "Let's go on a journey, a journey through all time!"

-(giggling) Boy, that clock is taking this whole lesson on time very seriously!
Clock: "Don't be stupid, friends!"

-Whoa! There's no need to get cocky!

Anyway, through awkward changes from live-action to animation and back, the clock tells the threesome about different ways to view time,

from dying trees

to rotting apples to "having fun" with a house of cards.
(the clock purposefully knocks down the house of cards)

Clock: (singing) "There's a time and a place for monkeying around!"
-Man, this clock is not only rude, but also sketch! He's just as sketch as that talking writing pad from the last video!
Okay, what is this? We're now being introduced to staring creepy people?

(the creepy guy staring into the camera, while the background behind him changes color)

-Line?
Hairy Red Guy: "And then what happened after the olden days?"
-Thanks for tearing us away from that awkward moment there.

Clock: (singing) "Time went new, got old like history..."
-This all isn't too bad. However, if you saw the original video, you'll probably that weird shit is about to happen soon. It hasn't happened yet.
Yellow Guy: "An old man died..."

-Uh, thanks for pointing that out... not that it's anything important, except that it comes from this video series' long line of randomness.
Clock: (singing) "Time is now, the future anew!"

-There's mind-control in the future?
Yellow Guy: "My dad is a com-com-computer..."

-And there's Internet porn in the computer? By the way, this guy's dad is not only creepy, but also a pervert.
Clock: "Look at the time!"
And then we get a few moments of characters being near raw fish.

Hairy Red Guy: "There's fish everywhere."

-Yeah, we see.
So just when we think that things may not get any more sketch, the characters ask the questions that would definitely seal their fate. Take a listen to these questions.
Crow: "But when did it start?"
Yellow Guy: "And when will it stop?"
-Uh, guys. You don't need to know that right now. Just pretend y'all didn't ask...
Hairy Red Guy: "If we run out of time, where does it go?"
Yellow Guy: "Is time even real? Does anyone know?"

-Shut up! Y'all don't need to know!
Crow: "Maybe time is just a conscious of human perception..."

-Now another philosophical lesson...
(the clock making an alarm sound that increases in volume)

-WTF?
(Yellow Guy's ear bleeds)

-Who does this clock guy think he is? He's rude and sketch!
The clock goes on to explain that time goes on every day.

With that said, the three characters start to age rapidly... and not the way we like it.
(Hairy Red Guy's hair growing)

-Okay.
(Crow's flesh peeling off his bones)

-Wait a minute. What?!
(Yellow Guy turning into an ugly old guy)

-Okay this is getting stupid now!
Yellow Guy: "Make it stop!"
-What stop? Time or y'all's aging?

-By the way, we knew this was coming. It's the dreaded erratic atmosphere coming to scare us with its malicious shock value. We've waited 3 minutes for this, you guys.
Clock: (singing) "It's out of my hands. I'm only a clock."

-Yeah, it's "out of your hands," because you caused all this. Who would do that? And who would say that?
Clock: (singing) "Don't worry. I'm sure you'll be fine, but eventually everyone runs out of time."
-(sarcasm) How encouraging, especially for someone who is dying! Geez! This guy is so not moral!!!

And then we realize that this was all just a TV show that the three characters were watching on their television.
-(pause) Was that the program that they were waiting five minutes for? If so, then they're so messed up and not right in their heads! Then again, this ending felt like bullshit. Maybe the video decided to throw in a deus ex machina, so that we wouldn't be too disappointed to learn that time is valuable to where we'll eventually run out of it someday... Now I'm starting to sound like that damn clock!

End Credits:

We finally get to the credits where... there's larva wiggling through blue fur?

-IDK. I'm far too shocked by this video to comment.

And that was the sequel to Don't Hug Me I'm Scared.
Well, to be fair, the weird, creepy moment took longer to appear in this video than it did in the first video. Nonetheless, just like in the first video, the "teacher" figure was sketch and rude. You can definitely tell that more work was put into this video than the first, because the characters got to go somewhere (at the very least), instead of just being at home for the whole video.
For what it is, it's creepy, yet it has a stand-out message... which people are still theorizing about, and we have our speculations.

"Five Nights at Freddy's 3" (iOS version) Is FINALLY Here!

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

FINALLY!

I woke up this morning and saw on the App Store (iTunes) that Five Nights at Freddy's 3 is already out for iOS. As soon as I saw it, I immediately took action and ended up finally playing it for myself.

-FINALLY!

For me, this game wasn't that bad. Here's what happened...

Night 1:

The first night allowed me to be familiar with my surroundings, which was okay, because I need to know where rooms and vents are at and everything.

One thing that struck me as awkward was the new phone guy (knowing that the old phone guy died in FNaF 1)...

-Spoiler alert if you haven't played the first two games yet.

...It was odd to get a new voice here.

-I wonder who Scott Cawthon hired to be the voice actor for this new phone guy. Or is this still Scott Cawthon, except he had to alter his voice some? IDK.

Minigame #1:

After Night 1 is over, I was taken to a minigame.

-I don't know if it does the same on the PC or Android versions or not.

I had to put Mangle together in that minigame.

Night 2:

This was where the so-called Springtrap bunny comes out and messes with you.

Before that though, the new phone guy plays audio from the previous phone guy, which was nice to hear again, even though he died in the first FNaF.

Now, for Springtrap, I learned that if you play audio of children laughing and talking in another room adjacent to the room that he's in, he'll go towards the noise. There were a couple of moments where I caught him in the vents. There were other times when I had to reboot some of the equipment.

-I gotta admit: the rebooting process can be a bitch, because it takes a while for the systems to reboot.

As for jumpscares, I experienced that when the hallucination of Balloon Boy happened. Afterwards, I could hear my character breathing hard, which was pretty new to me, because the security guard character in the first two games didn't do that.

Minigame #2

After Night 2, I got another minigame, but this time, it featured Toy Chica.

-Yeah, imagine! The slutty chicken from the second game manages to make an appearance in this game... Uh. I don't know any better. Anyway...

The goal for this minigame is to collect cupcakes and then serve them to the kids.

Night 3:

In this night, instead of the new phone guy you hear, you get to hear the original phone guy's audio recordings.

This time, Springtrap is a little harder to track down. And this time around, my cameras dysfunctioned sooner, and the system reboot thing bothered me more so. And of course, Balloon Boy's hallucination got me again, and I was scrambling to reboot my systems.

However, the creepiest part was when I saw Springtrap lurking outside my office... and I made the stupid mistake of turning to my reboot systems, and he got me.

So, seeing that I only made it to Night 3 in this game, what do I think about this game?

For me, this was a big improvement of all three games. The premise; the greenish scenery (it reminds you of the novel Asylum by Madeleine Roux); and the pace. However, I didn't see Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, or the toy versions.

-Unless they come in later nights? Who knows?

Overall, it was really fun to play. Right now, I'm tempted to play some more, but for now, I can finally watch Let's Play videos of this game. I wonder how WatchGirlsPlay, BlastphamousHD, Smosh Games, and Smike reacted to this game...
