Guys, I'm going to receive the DVD next month with all the Animaniacs episodes and I want to start doing my covers, does anyone know how to make an instrumental with effects

I'm considering a fanfic that crosses over Animaniacs and Spongebob but I have... little clue how Spongebob and those two characters would take to each other. I have everyone else established but I'm unsure about them. I don't just want to go with "oh spongebob would annoy scratchansniff bc hes easy to annoy", I don't think that's really accurate, it's more the Warners are a special case to Scratchansniff than Scratchansniff is irritable in general like Squidward

Need creative input to adapt. Anyone here who's a mutual fan of both can give their takes?

I've gone through a while of introspecting, and it left me wondering if Animaniacs is actually doomed to remain in limbo for another something years until it gets renewed again. Is that really the most that can be done? Are there no chances for a movement that petitions a continuation in some form? I know WB might not care much for the brand anymore after a certain executive joined, but that shouldn't discourage us from spreading the word regardless. Animaniacs wouldn't even need a full animated series revival at this point, fans would be satisfied with 5 minute shorts like the Mickey Mouse Show or a comic lineup

It would be a true shame if it ended for good until another generation passes with nothing but maybe cameos and low marketed merchandise representing the Warners. The reboot performed well (and I will happily debate anyone it did), but not well enough to appease WB's new standards. It was more of a 7/10 good by all metrics. With Warner's looser views on cartoons, it seems anything short of a banger 9 or 10 won't qualify for them to keep greenlighting episodes

Just felt compelled for a specific crossover I thought about. I'd love rps of the Warners and Spongebob meeting. Me as Spongebob you as a Warner or all three if you're ambitious. Does anyone want to be writing partners? I can do paragraph for more immersion but I'm pretty easygoing and go for 1-3 sentences, they're fun banter rps

Just what title says. Yeah I was almost positive the Warners would acknowledge Spongebob in the reboot (there's a blink-and-you-miss-it shot of the Thanksgiving parade in the first episode), but that never happened. It was a missed opportunity for something cool because, we've been given indications of how the trio feel about Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse. Spongebob is a third mascot that came along during their absence, the only other one, so you would think the trio commenting on him is a given seeing they reference pop culture yet didn't. The reboot missed a number of opportunities when it comes to references

So I wonder what would happen if the trio did meet Spongebob characters. Don't say "they would annoy Squidward" bc I think that one's super obvious, I want specific character interactions. How would Yakko, Wakko, and Dot respectively feel about him?

Personally, and your viewpoint can differ, I always felt Spongebob and Yakko wouldn't get along? Mutual joking around aside, I think Spongebob is surefire to get slightly annoyed by Yakko's inappropriate sarcasm/taking the wrong things not seriously. He's never dealt with a wiseguy before and he cares a lot about his dignity, like Yakko, so I feel their similarities yet different coping mechanisms for their insecurity would clash. I'm sure Yakko would appreciate Spongebob's optimism but I feel like he would also consider him pretentious

I think Dot would find Spongebob cute but maybe also childish? Sometimes in an endearing way other times in a distracting way? I'm unsure which more so. And he would respect her strength but sometimes thinks she overdoes it

Wakko is simple enough to where Spongebob wouldn't have a problem with him unless maybe he raids his fridge or something

But one thing I feel they'd all be turned off by is his laugh

I'm curious how anti reboot fans interpret Spongebob's character post-writers update (season 9 up to today) compared to the OG team. I've seen them criticize the reboot for not writing the Warners correctly but then they'll turn around and praise Modern Spongebob?

I'm VERY interested how Animaniacs fans (specifically anti reboot ones) view Spongebob's transition into modern time and whether they consider him flanderized as well as the Warners

Because honestly this isn't by any stretch close Spongebob got WAAAAAAAAAY more assassinated than any of the siblings and my case is as follows.

We can sit and dissect the "odd" new directions they took them in, but Spongebob was removed of ALL DIRECTION. It feels like the writers don't understand what he's supposed to be and just saw him from the meme culture perspective. Literally everything Spongebob is used for now is a joke. Even down to just his mannerisms between the eras, he's too energetic now and has almost zero of the down-to-earth qualities that humanized him (rhetorically speaking)

He consistently breaks down into a useless coward while his friends are on the line (so much for all those courage arcs like in "I Had An Accident") because "lulz", he's sometimes too absentminded to realize the most obvious like "playing" a multiplayer video game even tho his controller is unplugged, and I find they're overdoing the "hes more feminine than he lets on" joke. Now he doesn't hide it and acts WAY TOO MUCH like a girl, which is so weird when you remember the original writers said on record that's not how he is and he just acts like an innocent kid which might "seem" girly. I don't care if there's a political angle under that but at least handle it right and make it a "denial projection" thing like it would be before. Would that not be "funnier" anyway? This just plays into him being too energetic

His competence is rejected for jokes as well. There are similar situations from the earlier seasons where he ends up doing the opposite action. In one modern ep (idc enough to look just ask and I'll find it) he destroys Mr. Krabs' house after being instructed to watch it, and Spongebob's reliability apparently dove so hard Mr. Krabs has to routinely check on him?? What?? Nevermind he managed just fine in "Wet painters" (excluding Patrick's bumbling) and in a comic. Spongebob is SUPPOSED TO BE ORGANIZED??? A key element of him is he's good with manual work and has advanced hand-eye-coordination. But that doesn't matter because "memes"

In summary Spongebob from seasons 1-8 (there's a shift in seasons 2-3 from season 1 and seasons 4-8 from seasons 2-3 but not to the extent season 9 on made) was varying degrees of the straight-man backed by technical intelligence and loyal commitment, he would get INTO trouble after extensive prodding from someone else. The rebooted show missed that and just makes him a typical problem child gag character fully drenched in his weirdness

IRONICALLY the opposite of what people claim happened to the Warners

3640356. It is an Animaniacs Trivia

I know the reboot's ending leaves a sour taste (for me as well) despite it being just a comedic gag, so I made this post to hopefully alleviate the idea they're "dead". Sometime after season 3 ended people took to the co producer's social media asking for details

Don't have a screenshot but he explained production had to be rushed as Hulu dropped Animaniacs was ending on them last minute. The meteor crashing was intended to symbolize the creative team's abrupt dismissal. I still believe they should have done a more genuine sendoff, but we got what we got

The good part is, he revealed the Warners survived that meteor! They aren't dead. He also confirmed what type of immortal they are by answering. The type that's immune to physical harm

I felt they changed Yakko’s character too much in the reboot, he’s my favorite in both versions but his siblings teased him a lot compared to the original. He was also given a fear of not making people laugh.

I remember a musical segment of Animaniacs parodying the musical Oklahoma except it was all about anvils, including the line "Anvilahoma where the anvils fall from the sky!", but when I search for it, it's like it never existed. Does anyone else remeber this and can tell me where I can watch it?

When I was in 5th grade (so 1997), I had the CD Yakko's World and decided to perform "The Ballad of Magellan" for the spring talent show. If you haven't heard it, it's a great song! I made a whole performance of it, dressing up in a cap and gown and telling the audience they needed to study their history if they've never heard of Magellan. Then: "chef's kiss Maestro!"

I actually managed to get third place, even though I had a cold and couldn't sing at my best. That song had always held a special place in my heart.

(P.S. John Oliver is awesome!)
