GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Steineded How sad is this?
DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
alexmpw I know that pilots are often unpolished and not quite what the series may be like on average, but could this get any more infuriating? I mean, I don't hate Bubsy by a long stretch, and this pilot does genuinely have some good things going for it. For what I've seen, it looks like it could have been a mixture of Heathcliff and The Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat, both really surreal yet entertaining shows.But this. This. THIS. Gah. Rob Paulsen and the cast give it their all, but the plotting's atrocious, the animation's just plain ugly (look at Bubsy on the thumbnail, just look at him!!) and the humour is just not there (outside of idiotic and unfunny jokes). What really grinds my gears is that they had the opportunity to give the disliked character a personality overhaul that might have made him more marketable, but they chose to make him even more unlikable.If someone were to remake this into a serviceable pilot, I wouldn't complain, provided that they fix these problems and mix some originality into it.
gugsybear this pilot IS ABHORENT so we start with a theme song probably written by someone with ADHD who drank to much coffee spat it all over the reel and spilled sugar on it yes that bad it makes fanboy and chum chum look like meditation also the what could possibly go wrong counters on 2 times oh and the title of the episode is that stupid saying that adds 1 more what could possibly go wrong so inside his house which is drawn like the theme by the way oh and he has a sidekick Arnold armadillo who is afraid of trucks and gets tortured by bubsy woo boy this is a looooooooooong day you know that also bubsy has an ego a big big ego so more Arnold torture and some more bubsy ego and the two single most annoying twins come along and make me go bonkers so bubsy rats out Arnold and the twins grab him from under the couch and torture home some more and bubsy watches TV which tortures Arnold even more as it plays to his fear of trucks and the twins use Arnold as a ball filler filler this filler filler that and we finally get the plot in gear so some guys invented an imagination helmet and is very annoying also I think they predicted VR also more Arnold torture 4 what could possibly go wrongs so stereotypical villain with two dumb henchmen make the scene so we get bubsy doing dumb crap with helmet what could possibly go wrong has been said 5 times the truck returns and Arnold gets tortured and the annoying kids steal the helmet also they stole this from the adventures of sonic the hedgehog the sound mixing is awful I want rip my ears off also what could possibly go right so the annoying twins mess with the henchmen so at this point oop six what could possibly go wrongs they have turned the lab into a coaster and ran over Arnold so more stupid black and white gags seven what could possibly go wrongs so they hit bubsy which is so satisfying so they make more roller coaster things and drive us nuts so they act like brats so 8 more what could possibly go wrongs sigh I give up I am done
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Bubsy" is a 25-minute small-screen cartoon from 1993, so this one will have its 25th anniversary next year. The director is Tom (not Tim) Burton and he is also one of the writers who created this pilot episode. There was the possibility that this could be turned into a series of several episodes, maybe even several seasons, but eventually it did not get picked up and Bubsy became a more known character in the world of video games. It is a little bobcat (red lynx) who has to save the world when a powerful helmet that grants any wish you have gets in the hands of an evil lady. Luckily, he has his friends (and nephews) there to help him cope with the situation. Not that he needed them because what could possibly go wrong? I personally must say this was an interesting little movie. Yes the title character is a bit annoying and I guess that's why this film has such a low rating here on IMDb. But the supporting characters are funny, especially the bad guys. The ideas are absurd, but in animation that's often a good and not a bad thing and here I#d say so as well. There were more than just a few quotes that worked out nicely in my opinion and references to Elvis or so make this also a solid watch for grown-ups. The moments with the live action inclusions were a bit random though, but not all bad either. I am not sure if they could have kept this level up for an entire series, especially in terms of the entertainingly awkward spirit, but it should have been worth a try and maybe I'd even have watched it. The very experienced and prolific voice actors did a good job as well for the most part. Overall, I recommend Bubsy and I found it a positive surprise.
SynthHarmony69 Words cannot describe how atrocious is Bubsy. His cartoon failed so hard that it got cancelled after one episode. The series was so bad that JonTron did a review of the game. Bubsy 3D was so bad that the AVGN reviewed it and the Bubsy series completely ended because of this. There is no single good thing about Bubsy, everything about his series and himself sucks.Bubsy is a stupid preteen bobcat who goes on stupid adventures.There wasn't any good thing about this show and its only episode. It was terrible from beginning to end.Bubsy's voice is so annoying that it can kill your brain cells.Bubsy's cartoon is one heck of an awful show, without any single redeeming value.0/10
