The Paloni Show! Halloween Special!

Good movie!

source: The Paloni Show! Halloween Special!

It's an anthology halloween special. There were some really good segments. I'm a big fan of Joel Haver and David Firth, and seeing them in something this mainstream is neat for sure. A lot of the segments unfortunately fall into pretty cliche slasher tropes. Seeing the different animation styles is cool and all, but at least 3 of the segments, and the overarching narrative of the Paloni Show are all the same plot wise. Justin Roiland, as always, plays the same character as he always does. He has like 2 voices that he chooses from. Same with Zach Hadel, although in my opinion his voice is a little more tolerable. But the standout segments were great. Some very creative uses of animation throughout. Joel Haver and David Firth, of couse, were my favourites. I love Joel Haver's sense of humor, and David Firth continues his creepy satirical sensibilities. There was also Rafillo, who created a crazy animation called Killer Bathtub. He seems to be most famous on TikTok but he's mostly Spanish language so I haven't heard of him before. Lee Hardcastle also did a great claymation segment, really showing off his talent. And Jaime Rodriguez also made a horrifically well animated short. Overall I say it's worth watching, if only to see some exclusive animation from some of the best indie animators working today.

Absolute garbage excuse for entertainment. Not a single sketch was funny or interesting and the main "storyline" seems like it was just thrown together. If you like interdimensional cable then you will hate this. Getting to show off a verity of animation and writing styles is a super awesome thing, but for it to turn out like this is disappointing. Please don't waste your time on this and if you're reading this while watching and hoping for it to get better, it doesn't. Sit in the dark quietly for an hour instead of watching this. It's also just sad that this will be Gilbert Godfried's last performance.

If you like Rick and Morty, then you will like this! There are hits and misses, but of course, so was the interdimensional cable access shows that they had. Some shows were funny, some gross, and some were disturbing. I liked a lot of the nods to the iconic horror movies. I think there was at least 3 maybe 4 big movies that I can count. I also liked the different animation styles that were featured in the clips. There was one that was live action too. I hope they have a Christmas special too! It would be fun to see what kind of twisted things they will do with that! I hope it's an annual tradition.

I love Rick and Morty 10/10. I enjoy Solar Opposites 7.2/10. What I just spent wasting my time watching for over an hour, was an absolute cash grab. HULU probably just said "make something, these idiots will watch anything." I was pretty amped up about it at first when I seen the creators name. I find myself overly bored, disgusted and annoyed. It's dull. Seemed to myself like it was an over glorified, way of stepping back to the 60's-80's if you were busy on an acid trip. The main story was okay, and slightly gripped you in because he uses Mortys voice for it. Overall, don't waste you're time on this I'll-Fated movie. 100% Disappointing.

It really is just old YouTube, you can really see Zach's influence. It honestly doesn't work that well with the Rick and Morty writers that well. It would have better if it was just Zach. Them together gives off like an odd David Lynch esque slapstick comedy. I wouldn't watch it if you're over 30, most of the jokes are anti humor and are carried by the obscure dialogue on top of the obscene situations. This review does require me to type more. I feel like I typed enough. I don't really have anything else to say. I said what I needed to say. I haven't had a character constraint since highschool.

I'm not sure what I was expecting. I like rick and morty, and it uses a lot of the same voice actors, but this wasn't that good. Only a few of the shorts were any good and the rest were just boring. The main story, with the hosts, I wish they would have just focused on that. I'd say which shorts I liked but having just watched it a few hours ago I can not for the life of me really remember any of them. They were also really short, all of them ended leaving me thinking 'wait, that is it?' I wish there was only like 3 shorts, like the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror format, but they crammed way too much in this special. If a Paloni show came out I'd give it a shot though, like I said the story of the hosts was alright. I don't think it exists though, I looked it up on Hulu and tried to find a wiki and nothing. Either this is a one off joke or the introduction to a new show.

The only reason I heard about this was from following Joel Haver and I made an account to tell you about it. You'll see a lot of familiar art styles and might recognize a lot of the people who put work into this collection of mostly animated shorts. It's pure fun. IDK what the haters are jabbering about. This is the type of media where you probably know what you're getting into, and it delivers. A legend from beyond the grave even voices a character. In the age of awful pandering BS, Hulu delivered a collection of talented people who just wanted to make something you can grab a bowl of teeth rotting candy and sit down to enjoy. Anybody complaining about this needs to eat a Snickers.

So the main part of this programme is from the same people who brought us "Rick and Morty" and "Solar Opposites" which is generally a good sign. It's a series of shorts so I was hoping for something like "Love, Death & Robots" or maybe like the old BBC programme "Monkey Dust". Well I'm writing this while I'm still watching it and all I can say is I was wrong. The Inbetween sections are not upto the same standard as either of the programmes that have come before. None of the shorts are well made. They are at best a poor excuse for entertainment. It seems that very little effort was put into this at all. Yet another waste of time that pretending to be edgy because it's animation with swearing. Not remotely amusing. Nothing funny. Nothing of quality. I can only assume that it's aimed at people who eat Tide Pods. Dismissed.
