00:00Knuckles Show Episode 2
00:01After wasting my time
00:04Eventually the bad guys
00:06Leave the car Knuckles was in
00:07And one of them says they're an ice cap
00:09Ski resort
00:10I feel like that was corny
00:13I think it's just out of place
00:15To do sonic location references
00:17In a live action place
00:19Because we all know it's not that
00:21World
00:23So that's where they want to do the exchange
00:26And then Wade
00:27Drives here and eventually
00:29Says that normally you'd call for
00:31Backup here but this is Montana
00:34This was a nice explanation
00:35For why him being a cop doesn't come
00:37In handy enough
00:39It would be pretty disappointing
00:41If him being a cop
00:42Which is normally a pretty interesting
00:45Idea which would have a lot of story
00:47Potential never comes
00:49Into play in the entire show
00:52When Wade
00:53First showed up in the car
00:56Let's just say I really
00:57Wished that he had a distinct
00:59Memorable design
01:00He's just a brown haired guy
01:03Eventually after some padding
01:06During which they try to be funny
01:08Because Knuckles wonders if he's in a
01:10Deep pit
01:11But he's not
01:12And Knuckles uncharacteristically
01:14Laughs maniacally
01:16Before threatening to tear someone's arms off
01:18Well at least it's good
01:20That the writer's aware of how evil
01:22He made him last episode
01:24As much as this show
01:26Doesn't deserve holding out for a hero
01:28I can't help but sort of like it
01:30Because it sounds good
01:32But this is too early in the show
01:34To have something that justifies the song
01:38I was surprised to see him do something
01:40That sent a whole bunch of fire at that lady's hair
01:43In a kids show
01:44And it just missed her skin
01:47I was also surprised when Knuckles said he wanted to give him a hug
01:51Then it turns out Wade was just daydreaming the whole time
01:55So that explains the out of character moments
01:57And how it made him successful the whole time
02:00Despite the fact that he'd have no experience with disabling the security system
02:05And it seems to me like the only thing creative about it
02:09Was the fire part
02:11So this was all a waste of time
02:13And they wasted holding out for a hero on an imagined sequence
02:19That's an impressive level of incompetence
02:23Why is that lady talking to Knuckles
02:25Even though she told someone not to talk to him earlier
02:29Then she shouldn't have been willing to complain about him doing that
02:33Especially since he was taunting Knuckles
02:36She says when this is over he'll learn everything about her
02:40But I thought she was just going to send him to someone else
02:44Why does she think only she has the right to taunt him
02:48The script sucks here
02:50Cause while I know everything about you
02:53When this is all over
02:54You will
02:55You will
02:56Know everything about you
03:00If Wade's going to be sneaking into a building
03:03Why is he going to play a song that anybody can hear?
03:07Wouldn't that just draw attention to him?
03:11I like that because he couldn't really reach the button on his phone
03:15And he didn't turn on the music before putting on the glove
03:18He had to use his nose against it
03:22Because I guess he was too lazy to take the glove off first
03:25And he settled for a sad song out of impatience
03:30Normally Sonic isn't meant to be funny
03:32Since there were barely any jokes in the classic era
03:35But since the show was doomed to suck
03:38It's good that there's a ton of comedy
03:41Because it does comedy better than the other shows anyway
03:45Wade fires from the gloves and gets sent back
03:48And then motor oil falls on the car
03:51And the spray lands in just the right way on the ground
03:54And the match gets lit
03:56Because it hits the ground after opening itself
03:58So this sets the car on fire
04:02Unlikely things happen in real life
04:04But this wouldn't have happened anyway
04:07Because why did he have the motor oil so close to him in the first place?
04:12He should have known the thing he sent out of the gloves would push him backwards
04:16Because that's basic high school physics
04:20The glove on his hand makes him start flying in a direction he doesn't want to
04:25Which I sort of like
04:27I can't imagine someone laughing at that because of his silly screaming about it
04:32And because there's something a lot funnier about physical slapstick
04:36When it's happening to a live-action character like Kramer
04:40Then he flies into the window with his glove head first
04:44Why did Wade leave one of the gloves on the floor?
04:48It succeeds to try and make the bad guy menacing
04:51Because Wade tries to crawl away from him
04:54But he throws him
04:55Although Wade telling him
04:57We just met
04:58Is dissonant with the tone
04:59We didn't need to see Knuckles get told that the rescue isn't going well
05:04We already knew she was mean
05:07And of course they'd be able to hear this
05:10After some more padding
05:12During which there's even more tone whiplash
05:15Because the bad guy's mom calls him and says she loves him
05:19And I wonder how Wade could possibly think they're really friends
05:23When he's being held by the throat
05:25Eventually Wade sprays him in the eyes with something spicy
05:29Which I think didn't happen in the Sonic series before
05:34And ends up casually going into the room with Knuckles
05:37Why does he bother talking to him after that?
05:41Eventually
05:42Finally ends up lampshading that the bad guys don't look menacing at all
05:46He's asked what he wants with Knuckles
05:49And he says they're going to win a bowling tournament
05:52Which I guess is another thing people found funny
05:55Because it sounded a lot cooler in his head
05:58But it's in character for him to be like that
06:01And it's supposed to be a comedy
06:03I'm surprised Wade's planning on having an alien be his partner in the bowling tournament
06:08I thought he kind of wanted to hide him
06:11To avoid freaking people out
06:14If only Wade bowls later
06:17Weir isn't going to make any sense
06:19And he sends the glove flying at the box Knuckleson
06:23And it causes an explosion
06:25But conveniently that doesn't even hurt Wade
06:29And it frees him
06:30Wade must have had rings
06:33Wade loves riding on his back while he's sliding
06:36And he wonders why he didn't tell him he could do that
06:40He had no incentive to
06:41And that wasn't the main source of his pride
06:44Since when can Knuckles only glide for very short distances?
06:49This was a downgrade just to force Wade to get thrown into a dumpster
06:54That already happened to Sonic
06:56In Sonic Prime
06:58And I had this criticism before the show
07:01What's the point of Slapstick with no consequences?
07:06His magic car starting power makes as much sense as his glide
07:11But still feels dumb
07:13So it wasn't worth it
07:15Knuckles would have just run carrying Wade
07:18It's so obvious Knuckles punching something
07:22Would have just noticeably damaged the car
07:25And make it even more undriveable
07:27When he's able to smash a boulder
07:30Eventually
07:32Surprisingly
07:32Surprisingly Knuckles says they won nothing tonight
07:35Even though he freed him
07:36And just whines that he got lucky
07:38So he should be acting grateful for the rescue
07:42I know what his excuse is for it
07:45And that doesn't make me feel any better
07:47Wade reasons with him
07:49And somehow that caused them to do a 180
07:53Immediately
07:54I really find it annoying that people have a problem
07:57With seeing real life brands in works of fiction
08:01That doesn't negatively impact the plot or characters
08:05It'd be great if we found out what the favorite shows and games of the Sonic characters were
08:10Because they feel more real and relatable
08:13And doing that requires product placement
08:16But nobody got mad about learning that Shadow's favorite anime is a real one in a Twitter takeover
08:23So taking issue with Lay's chips here is hypocrisy
08:27People just whine about it ruining their immersion
08:30Even if the characters are supposed to be portrayed as living in a world like ours anyways
08:36I find it immersion breaking when the writers use obvious knockoff names
08:40To reference what they really wanted to use
08:43But that just reminds me that copyright law exists
08:46Because it forced the writer not to make his artistic vision the way he wanted
08:52When you make me think about why a story turned out how it did
08:55The immersion gets broken
08:56And that's how I feel after plot holes
08:59People that don't have any standards for writing
09:02Talk like criticizing stuff that isn't major makes you a bad person
09:06But product placement isn't even a minor problem
09:09It isn't a problem
09:12At least not as long as it isn't done a massive amount of times in a row I guess
09:17There would still be just an opinion
09:19And that wouldn't make you a bad person
09:21If everyone has a right to their opinions that's not an exception
09:25So they still have a right to mention it in their videos
09:28I just find it annoying because they can't relate
09:31And it's not like everyone specifies that's not actually a problem before complaining
09:37It's just something people whine about
09:39Because they personally don't like it for no good reason
09:42And that's what the word nitpicking should be used for
09:46Not minor problems that still hurt the story
09:50Either way it's obvious what the meta logic is behind the decision
09:53Whether it's a real product in there or a fake one
09:56And this is less immersion breaking than calling them
09:58Slay's chips
10:00My point is I'd rather it be called McDonald's than SchmickDonald's
10:04I wouldn't have even talked about the product placement if I didn't hear people whining about it
10:09Like it was a really big deal
10:11Good thing there wasn't a big outcry about the swears
10:15Because they were humans I didn't think anything of it
10:19So this has to be why
10:20There wasn't a big enough moral outcry from this that I
10:24Heard about it
10:25Despite the bitching about the swears in Chao the Hedgehog
10:30After some padding
10:33During which I'm somehow supposed to believe that one of the bad guys
10:36Thought he would be able to give up on kidnapping Knuckles
10:39For the evil leader of a criminal organization
10:42And Knuckles pointlessly says he's been betrayed a lot
10:46Which makes it even more forced that he trusted Eggman
10:51And that would make a better story than everything that's going on in the show
10:55I at least finally get to see Knuckles enjoy some music
11:01Wade not only enjoying the song but also smacking his wheel
11:05Makes him look like a dork in a way that's actually a little endearing
11:09I'm still bothered the whole time about the fact that I shouldn't be looking at
11:13Real life humans in a Sonic story
11:16But surprisingly I don't hate Wade
11:20Maybe I've seen other characters like him in the cartoons I grew up with
11:23So I'm already used to him
11:25One of the main characters of Nets Declassified
11:28Was a dork
11:30So maybe I'm being reminded of him
11:32Wade finds out he's a fugitive with a bounty on his head
11:36It's a little tiring because Tom already went through that
11:40And it's always something you feel pretty sorry for the main character for
11:45And that causes Knuckles to smash the only source of music that could cause him to lighten up
11:51So it went from trying to make me sympathize with Knuckles
11:54Because he felt bad for Wade for getting betrayed
11:57To make him a completely unlikable moron again
12:01Knuckles can't pay him for the radio
12:03He can't make it up to him
12:06He says it's time for him to visit someone he hasn't seen in a long time
12:10And he talks to his mom
12:13Why does she faint?
12:15Everyone already knows about aliens by now
12:19That would have been worldwide news
12:23There are too many witnesses for everyone to doubt
12:26All of the eyewitness testimony about Sonic
12:30I guess she doesn't watch the news or pay any attention to social media
12:34Never mind
12:35I guess this makes sense then
12:37This episode by John Whittington
12:40Was about Wade rescuing Knuckles by spraying someone in the eyes
12:44And sending a flying glove
12:46That never would have been left behind to free him from his cage
12:50With a lot of worthless padding in between everything
12:54But there were a couple of impressively charming moments in the episode to be fair
12:58But they're just minor
13:00Not major things about how the plot is
13:04What's good about the episode that really matters
13:07Is that it was less boring than last time
13:09And didn't have a ridiculously forced beginning
13:12And having Wade need to improvise a plan because his initial idea failed
13:16Puts more creativity in the story
13:19Still, it's not like it's the first time Knuckles ever got kidnapped and needed rescuing
13:24So this video
13:24Is that it?
13:25Oh
13:25If you have a guess
13:25I agree
13:25Am I agree
