Animation Abomination/Gallery

Announcer: "Now back to Kingdom of Lore!"

"You'll never get away..."

"...with this, Ghost!"

"You think you can defeat me?"

POOF! Her wand is gone!

"Oh, snap!"

"Looks like this ghost..."

"...is gonna make us toast!"

Announcer: "Don't miss the exciting next episode of Kingdom of Lore!"

"Wow..."

"This show is awesome!"

"I know!"

Tilly, the fangirl: "I've seen all the episodes,"

"...read all the books,"

"...and they make my favorite cereal!"

Cricket, the newbie: "This is the first episode I've seen."

"It makes no sense,"

"...and I LOVE IT!"

"How do you think the season will end?"

"I have a theory..."

"...that the evil ghost..."

"...is actually the king."

"That's cool."

"But I think the main girl lady..."

"Princess Tarina."

"Princess Tortilla? I think it'd be cool if she..."

"...BLOWS EVERYTHING UP..."
(Um, Cricket? Spilling and dropping salt is bad luck.)

"...BECAUSE SHE'S EVIL NOW!!!"

(mimick explosion)

"Brother,"

"...that would never happen."

"As someone who has seen every episode of Kingdom of Lore,"

"...leave the creative ideas to me.""

"I have good ideas!...Sometimes!"

"Excuse me, but..."

" ...have YOU written 1200 pages of Kingdom of Lore fanfiction?"

"Well, just 'cause I HAVEN'T..."

"...doesn't mean I COULDN'T."

"Oh hey, Kingdom of Lore."

"I just got a job working on that show."

"You work on Kingdom of Lore?!"

"Technically I'm an intern, so I'm not getting paid."

"In fact, I had to enroll at a community college to even qualify,"

"...so I'm actually paying to work there."

"Please, please, please take us! Take us, Gloria!!! Please!"

"Yeah, okay."

Hmmm.... That animation studios looks kinda familiar.

"Wow, Gloria!"

"I can't believe you help make cartoons!"

"You must have nonstop fun!"

"Okay, just remember that the creators of Kingdom of Lore are my bosses, so don't do anything stupid.

"We woooooon't..."

(blow raspberries)

"Hey, Topher? Blaine?"

"I see you're wearing your sibling shirt, again."

"Of course! Brothers who work together,"
Of course, that must be the cartoon version of Chris and Shane.

"...wear a big shirt together!"

"Say, why don't you introduce us to your guests?"

"We're Gloria's best friends!"

"No, no, they're --"

"...Oh, crud, they are."

"I'm Topher!"
"And I'm Blaine!"

"And we're the showrunners!"

(Cricket and Tilly applaud)

"Wow, a team of creative siblings!"

"Can't relate."

"Me?!"

"Are you saying I'm not cre-a-tive???"

"Topher and I bicker a lot, too."

"But the rewards of a creative partnership make it all worth it!"

"We don't bicker!"

"Yes, we doooooo!"

"That's it! Sibling shirt is coming off!!!"

Chris about to take...

...their sibling shirt off.

And success.

Chris and Shane still hate each other in their cartoon world.
(but not in real life tho)

"But hey, would you kids like a tour of the studio?"

"Yeah!"

"Follow me!"

"There's a lot of steps in making a cartoon, but it all starts in the writer's room!"

"WE HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK!"

"We can't come up with anything for our big season finale!"

"Uh-oh, problem!"

"We need to come up with an ending!"

"And fast!"

"Well, I have an idea!"

"What if the evil Ghost was..."

"...the King from Season One?"

"And Princess Tarina must fight him..."

"...to reclaim her kingdom,"

"...therefore payin' off seasons' worth of buildup..."

"...in a dramatic and emotionally satisfyin' way!"

"That...is..."

"BRILLIANT!"

"But, what if it turns out Princess Tostada was..."

"...EVIL THE WHOLE TIME!??!?!"

"And everything--"

(imitating explosion again)

"That...is..."

"Easy!"

"How long 'til lunch?"

"Five minutes"

"We go with the easy idea."

"Yay!"
Cricket's cut theory is now approved!

"Get..."

"WRITING!!!!!!!!!!"

The writers cheers as Cricket cut is now in progress.

"Good show writing, Blaine."

"You too, Topher."

"But what about my ending?"

Then she realize that her cut didn't make it.

"Cricket, could we talk in the kitchen?"

"Okay"

"A toast, to my brilliant ideas!"

"Cricket, your ending is hot garbage."

And so it's begin.

"Well, it's true!"

"Nah, it's this weird French soda."

"It's got no flavor."

"What the -- ?"

"Weird."

"But I was also reacting to what you said!"

"How could you say it's no good?!"

"This show means a lot to me,"

"...and your version ruins Tarina's whole character!"

"You can't sacrifice five seasons of growth for cheap spectacle!"

"You've gotta help me convince them to change it back!"

He's not buying it.

"Huh."

"Sounds to me like..."

"...SOMEONE is upset that their brother is a creative visionary."

"Looks like I DO have..."

"...great and awesome ideas..."

"...after all."

"Oh, look! Is that a screenin' room?"

"Wow,"

"...cool!"

"Hey,"

"...why are you so far away?"

"I'm gonna grab us some popcorn and I'll be right in."

"I do like popcorn..."

"If I wanna save Kingdom of Lore, I gotta act fast."

"DON'T WRITE THAT ENDING!!!"

"The... end!"

"And... print!"

"No... Cricket's version doesn't make any sense!!!"

"Oh, that doesn't matter. This is animation."

"We can make it as stupid as we want."

"Dang printer."

"And..."

"...there!

"The finished script, hot off the presses."

"Very hot."

"Out of the way!"

"Gotta deliver the script to the storyboard artists so they can turn it into a cartoon!"

"Not without a little help."

The storyboard artists look kinda familiar.

"New script,"

"...comin' in hot!

They somehow grab the script with their mouth. Weird.

And back to work with them.

"Oh, this battle scene...

"...has a thousand horses!"

"I have to draw a thousand horses!"

"Great!!!!"

The castle exploding...

And the castle left intact.

A bad knight...

And a good knight.

The evil Princess Tarina...

And the good Princess Tarina.

"Huh?"

"Hey! Did you change all my drawings?"

(Alarm sounds)

"Never mind!!!"

"Just hit the deadline!!!!!"

"How's the board lookin'?"

(shrug)

"Good enough."

Success!

Unfortunately, Cricket saw everything...

...and he doesn't seem to like where this is all going.

"Cricket?! BACK OFF!!!"

"YOU back off!!!"

"My! Version!"
Cricket starts removing all the Tilly boards.

"Is! Better!!!"

"QUIT BEING SO STUBBORN!!!"

"I AIN'T GIVING UP ON THIS, CRICKET!!!"

They flinch off the storyboad.

Process to upload storyboard and...

Upload complete.
Success!

"There, my version is permanent,"

"...now quit trying to interfere!!!"

"It's about doing what makes sense for the show!"

"My version makes sense! You're just jealous!!!"

Blaine: "Hey, kids!"

"Sorry to interrupt your squabble."

"Blaine and I resolved our squabble from earlier,"

"...so now we're..."

"...back in the big shirt!"

"We're about to record the actors for the episode, and thought you might wanna sit in!"

"Yay!"

"Hmmph!"
Back to sibling rivalry again.

"This is our recording studio."

"These talented folks can make any sound with their voice."

I get the feeling that the voice actors look kinda familiar. And they start making stock sound effects.

"Wait, what happened to your sister?"

Here she is!

"So sorry I'm late."

"Hey, something's weird here."
The voice actress who sound vaguely familiar to Gramma.

"It looks like someone scribbled over the script..."
And the voice actor who sound vaguely familiar to Bill.

"...with purple crayon?"

"HHHMMMMM!!!!!"

"What the --"

"You did a rewrite?!!"

"Now how're we supposed to record the script?!"

PLEASE DON'T RUIN YOUR SIBLING SHIRT!

And they did it anyway.

They hear Cricket clear his throat...

"My big brain actually..."

"...THOUGHT this might happen."

"So I went ahead and printed some spare copies!!"

"The good version..."

"...may proceed!"

"Cricket..."

"...wins again!"

"Guess that's it, then."

"The Cricket ending is gettin' made,"

"...and I'll watch reruns of it for the rest of my life."

"No."

"There's gotta be a way I can stop this."

"Gloria!"

"What else needs to be done before the episode of animation is completed?"

"Well, I've gotta collect art from every department on this list, so..."

"Yoink!"

"Or you could do it."

"I just gotta steal the art from each of these people."

"The designers are the ones who decide how attractive the characters are."

"Wow,"

"...looking good, you two."

"We know."

"The painters choose the colors of every scene!"

"Huh, looks weird..."

"I'm not done yet!"

"The editor and timer. They make sure everything in the episode moves at precisely the right time."

"Keep up the good work!"

"Thank...you."

"Goodbye, Cricket ending!"

But Gloria takes them! "Hey, thanks for grabbing this for me!"

"Dang it!"

"Next, we ship all our materials to our overseas animation studio!"

"Overseas? That sounds pretty normal."

"Well..."

Gloria in the hoodie bring out Cricket's cut...

...and put it in some sort of catapult. And really...

...this is obviously NOT how production is delivered in real life.

"MAKE IT MOVE! MAKE IT MOVE!"

"Making cartoons is way weirder than I though it'd be."

"You know it!"

"I will now send this story and all its artwork overseas,"

"...where they will be combined into a cartoon."

Tilly blows out the flame.

"AAAHHH!! PRODUCTION DELAY!!"

"Dang it, Tilly! WE'RE MAKING THAT EPISODE!!!"

Tilly tried to stop Cricket from sending his cut to oversea studios...

...but fail.

Cricket finally success process his cut.

The catapult...

...launch his cut to...

Yep, you guess it.

Wait a second, that Korean animation studios look kinda familiar.

And his cut finally land here.

Korean guard sound the alarm with a trumpet.

Korean animation crew are getting the signal.

So that Korean animation director tell the animators to get to work in Korean.

Animators cheers and the work begin.

"You just won't give up, will you?"

"Not until you see the erroneous nature of your misdeeds!!!"

"How DARE you!?! And could you repeat that? 'Cause I didn't understand!"

Gloria: "Okay, guys, break it up."

"And Tilly, you can relax."

"Nothing's set in stone until we get the final approval of the head studio executive.

"Oh no!!! I forgot to set the net!!!!"

"Everyone SCATTER!!!!!!

The crew flee from finish production and...

...wow, that was fast.

Cricket: "Whoa, the episode's already done?"

"That was lightning fast!"

"That's animation for ya."

"When's the execs supposed to arrive?"

Another boulder crashing in.

"Hi. I'm Ed Zecutive,"

"...and I'm here to watch a cartoon."

"Ed Zecutive, sir!"

"Very excited to show you the new episode, sir!"

"It's a real zinger."

"I'll be the judge of that."

Let see how Cricket's cut works.

"Uh oh! Looks like things are getting boomy!"

BOOM!! And it's turned out...

"Yes!"
Yep, the princess is an antagonist in Cricket's cut.

"I'm a bad guy now!"
Causing havoc around the kingdom...

...including the castle...

...which ended up explode.

And the end.

"I LOVE IT!"
I guess the executive like Cricket's cut after all... except Tilly.

"So, it's approved?"

"It will be once I finish..."

"...this..."

"... senten --"

"WAAAAAIT!!!!"

"This CAN'T be the ending!"

"Tarina would never turn evil for nothin'!"

"It doesn't make sense for her character!"

"So I'm asking you once again to..."

"...PLEASE reconsider my ending!!!"

Change the plan, he like Tilly's cut better. But Cricket's not happy...

"Yes, yes!"

"Now that's what I call passion."

"I need more of that,"

"...and less "Yes" men."

"Sir, yes, sir!"

"Topher, Blaine, scrap this and get to work on changing that ending."

"Yes, sir! Right away, sir!"

"Yes? Work, work. Work, work, work, yes."

"Well, guess we got an ending to rewrite."

"At the end of the day, all that matters..."

"...is that I get to have fun working..."

"...with my brother."

"Sibling shirt?"

"Mend it!"

"Don't end it!"

Cricket, upset his ending was lost.

"A team of creative siblings..."

That was when she realized that she and Cricket shouldn’t fight over creative differences.

"Mr. Zecutive?"

"I don't think this ending is a complete loss. Maybe we can keep a couple of --"

(micking explosions like Cricket does)

"...for good measure?"

Cricket is in surprise that he will have a part in shaping the ending!

"Yes, yes!"

"You're full of great ideas."

"Well actually, those suggestions are from my creative partner,"

"...Cricket Green."

(Cricket squeals of excitement that both their idea combine...)

(and he fall)

"Creative partner?"

"We have some ideas that we'd like to pitch you."

"Together."

"I'm intrigued. Let's talk it out over lunch."

"I'm starved..."

What?! Ed was a robot the whole time?!

It looks like Cricket and Tilly can now wear the big shirt together!

"Foolish mortal! Don't you realize..."

"...I'm not just an evil ghost?"

"I am the King!"

"Your father!"

"You may be my father,"

"...but I'm about to become an ORPHAN!!!!"

And the king has been defeated by the explosing.

The end.

"That's our ending! On TV!!!"

"And because we put..."

"...our big brains together and collaborated,"

"...we were able to come up with an ending that has somethin' for everyone!"

"Now let's see what the fans on the internet think."

And it didn't end well for the fandom across the social media tho.
