Red vs Blue

>>93161004
I stopped watching this ages ago. After the first few seasons and the story ended...they kept it going and now it's this weird as shit action series more focused on lore than entertainment.
Whatever happened to Church since season 5?

Same deal as fp - stopped watching after the whole Church is Alpha thing or whatever that was.

Did the show ever get good again?

>>93161050
>>93161093
As stated above in my rankings, seasons 11-13(The Chorus arc) is RvB's absolute peak.

The stuff after one season of alpha Church (season 6 onwards) are indeed garbage, but the Chorus arc is a return to form.

>>93161142
Good to know, something to do this week.

>>93161212
Make a thread about it after if possible. Reactions to RvB are always interesting as there's so many different opinions about different parts of the series, it's just a mess of contradictions.

>>93161004
I marathoned them all together so honestly I don't know where they begin or end.

Was season 7 the one where they introduced The Meta and the rest of the project freelancer biz? Cause that was a great one.

>>93161050
>Whatever happened to Church since season 5?

Died in season 6.

>>93161335

6-10 are the seasons that focused on freelancer.

>kill a dozen people by locking up their armor in various states of pose and having them slowly starve to death, restricting all movement but keeping them fully conscious

That's fucked up

Seasons 7 and 11 are my current favorites

Mostly because because they're flat out comedy seasons like the original idea instead of full on action oriented.

9 and 10 were awful. I REALLY don't care about the Freelancers.

>>93161004
I don't think I watched all of Blood Gulch Chronicles but I do remember watching a bunch of episodes of it. I think I watched Reconstruction. I definitely watched all of Revelation. I also remember watching a few episodes of the first season of the Project Freelancer saga when it was being released but I guess I lost interest and fell off.

Out of all the RvB that I watched, I preferred Blood Gulch Chronicles the most. I probably liked Revelation the least. It felt too serious and honestly a bit depressing, particularly with what was done with Church and Tex.

Do you enjoy Burnie Burns shoving his cock down your throat that much?

>>93161372
>Died in season 6.

But he was in season 7 and 8.

>>93162740
That was his memories

>>93162740
That's Epsilon, a "backup" of Church who was mostly considered a separate character and died in season 13.

>>93162774
>>93162776
Was Church was a real person then or was he just an AI like Epsilon-Church?

>>93162811
There was a real person that Church was based on but Church himself was always an AI.

>>93162834
Was Tex an AI too?

>>93162931
Yes

>>93162931
Yes, Beta. Since all the Freelancer AI are born of Alpha/Director Church, Beta is his memory of a woman named Allison(?) he loved who died.

How do you think temple should die?
I'm thinking a full BR mag to the gut, then crush his windpipe with the butt of the rifle.
>>93161004
Carolina a qt. Four-Seven-Niner is best girl, though.

>>93161387
So then 7 would be the one where they put Church's mind in an ancient artifact?

>>93161460
>>93163283
I'm not sure if they would die of starvation first or dehydration

>>93163665
dehydration.

Objectively:

I doubt anything will dethrone reconstruction, everything below season 1 is bad, everything above is good.

>>93162604
Okay I realized I meant to say that I think I watched Recreation not Reconstruction. Though I may have actually watched Reconstruction too now that I think about it. Was Reconstruction the one where its revealed that Church is an AI and ended with an EMP attack or something?

I can't be the only one who didn't like Church and Tex being revealed as AI's, right?

So the last RvB season I watched was Revelations. What ended up happening with Church and Tex was pretty depressing IMO. Did it get worse for them in the seasons after?

>>93166283
Yes, but the closure was good

>>93165557
Nah it explains a lot

True. I never thought of that. In that case, I'd pick CT, or pic related.

You just know she has bright blue eyes

>>93166751
Well I guess AI's are a more plausible explanation than being able to be ghosts. Though I don't think Church and Tex being AI's is the only problem for me. It's also that things got so super serious and depressing for Church and Tex. And as a person who really liked Church and Tex's characters in Blood Gulch Chronicles, it hurts.

I do admit that I haven't watched RvB since Revelations. I may have watched the first few episodes of Project Freelancer but I don't really remember anything so that doesn't count. Maybe if I tried to get caught up my opinion on this stuff would change.

The series picks up again in season 11.

So remember that animated short meant as a preview for a planned Red vs Blue animated series from years ago?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0ba8G4jbqk

Well, I found out today that Rooster Teeth made an extended version of it and released it on youtube last year.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sE8JcqaXSIg

I guess that it's cool that they added to it after all these years. Though it's also kinda weird. Because, if I'm correct, the added stuff utilizes canon that was created after the original short.

>>93167355
I'm trying to think of any other examples of fan work that've had this much of a counter-impact on the original IP.

>>93167460
Counter-impact? Did you mean to say cultural-impact?

>>93167001
I miss Monty

>>93167625
Having an impact on the original source.

RvB really went a long ways towards establishing machinima as a viable story-telling medium, and some of the features that Bungie added to later sequels were a response to that (it wasn't the only thing they had in mind, obviously, but making it easier for players to do that kind of stuff was definitely a consideration).


The only other example I can think of is something like Garry's Mod, which did a lot to influence Valve's release of the Source Filmmaker tool.

>>93167709
Weird to think machinima isnt a thing anymore.

>>93167769
People don't bother making them when they can crank out shitty lets plays to greater success and at a fraction of the effort

>>93161004
The chorus trilogy is the best shit rooster teeth has every created

Fight me faggot

>>93169315
The what?

>>93167143
I watched everything up to when they just began the Freelancer flashbacks, and there was this weird Matrix Reloaded-esque scene with Tex (I think) being all super-agile kung fu and I dropped the series.

Are any of the later seasons actually all that good? It seems like they really should have ended it when Church's copy was put into the memory-box.

>>93169315
Fuck off Miles, your edgy Donut Steel was shit and no one cared about the 80 unnecessary characters you forced in

>>93169413
Grey was OK

>>93169445
She was actually the worst. The personification of 'le smart but random quirky psychopath!!!' that deviantartfags like to pretend they are

>>93169508
Eh. I didn't hate her that much but the fact that Doc was very conspicuously written out of the show so that Miles could replace him with his girlfriend's character was quite irritating. The payoff for Doc's return wasn't even that great

>>93163144
>beta was Tex
Wow, how did I never pick that up.

I never knew everyone hated Miles that much.

I mean I never even noticed he was the new writer

>>93161460
I knew there was something wrong with Temple, but damn if I ever saw that coming

Remember the ending to rwby volume 2. And in Volume 4 why didn't they just take a train? Oscar did

Anyone else think Temple is actually Captain Flowers?

>>93161004
Pretty good taste.
Only things i'd consider changing are moving 14 one notch up and 13 one notch down.

Despite 13 having an amazing third act and ending which may or may not have made me cry, the middle was a little all over the place.

>>93170514
First, volume 2 ending wasn't that bad.
It was bad! But it wasn't "I'm dropping this show now" bad.

Second, Kerry wrote Volume 4.
Kerry is in fact not a decent writer
Though he's alright in supporting writer. IE. If he has someone to guide him.

>>93170381
Freeman's mind just started up again.

>>93170522
I think it's probably Illinois

>>93170637
They both wrote volume 4 m8. Miles even wrote the whole stupid '2 brothers' backstory himself, one of the shittiest pieces of writing in an entire show of shitty writing, and considers it one of his proudest achievements as a writer

Once the show changed to focus on the "plot" at the expense of the comedy, I stopped caring. The early stuff with the Meta was okay, but I hated Monty Oum's janky animations and terrible models, and the Halo 4 material was dull as shit.

>>93170683

Autistic write up time? Autistic write up time.

>7
If taken individually, this season wasn't bad, but coming right on the heels of one of the greatest RvB seasons meant that there were unrealistic expectations set for it. Viewers were expecting to see more plot heavy and dramatic stuff, but got jerked back to the same old Blood Gulch antics, back to square one, which was way too jarring for anyone watching the series in sequence.

Also, Washington was way out of character for this one. Suddenly going psycho, killing Donut and pairing up with the Meta of all people? 2edgyforme

>11
Similar problems as 7, but with the added fact that since we've already had 10 seasons of full on Red and Blue antics, the formulas getting really stale by now and there's really no way to carry the season anymore except through plot or character progression, and this season had almost none of that. Not to mention Church and Carolina, two of the best characters, being absent for the entire thing.

>>93172586
Chaos Theosis best villains

6 best season

>>93161050
Honestly, the RE saga gave it a better ending than 1-5 because it felt more like they wrapped everything up while 5 still had a ton of unanswered questions.

I dropped it after the REs when they were all of a sudden fighting with some rebel group to liberate a planet or whatever.

6 > 1-5 > 8 > 7 > early PSA's > 10 > 9 > 11 >>>>>>> Lazer Team >>> 12-15

Fuck Miles. At least 6-10 had an interesting enough plot to make up for the decline in humor as Geoff/Gus/Matt/Burnie started to step away from creative control of the show, and even 11 was sorta watchable as a return to simpler story, but everything else is literal fan fiction and shit characters/forced stakes. Not to mention the giant wasted potential that was season 14.

>>93172586
>Pre-game Lobby
Season 1: 10/10
Season 2: One of the biggest dumpster fires I've ever seen. Really, they tried to pump out WEEKLY episodes and the writing is unbelievably bad.

>Arby and Cheif
Yeah, it's become a tad artsy, but that's what finishing film school does to you. Still, you got to give the man credit for coming back YEARS later to do one last season.

Honestly, I always found Phil to be my favorite out of the Halo 3 machinimas. Chad "The Sex Machine" Waldorf was a wonderful villain.

>>93172690
Scott and Xanthar are the best villains, fuck off

>>93161004
>14
Wow. I have the first 5 on dvd, but the season 5 finale seemed so much like THE END that I didn't expect it to keep going. I thought they moved on to The Strangerhood which I didn't find funny at all and I just stopped paying attention to Rooster Teeth. I knew they had RWBY or whatever it is but I didn't get into that either.

>>93162834
>>93162776
Wait a minute...
Didn't Church die in the first few seasons? He was a ghost and everything, and Sarge saw him during his out-of-body experience when they were giving him CPR for a bullet wound to the head. He even possessed Lopez.

>>93173242
Retconned so that his body was a robot shell, the ghost form was his AI projection.

>>93173305

What about Sarge? He was out-of-body and saw Church's ghost.

>>93173242
>>93173305
Well actually season 14 even further willed the plot holes that he was actually implanted in a human body.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PKHfBFMDF8

>>93173343
IIRC Burnie said that Sarge's suit went into a emergency-recovery mode of sorts.

>>93173343
Trust me, if you think that's a stretch, just wait till I tell you that them setting off Andy and getting blasted forward in time was retconned to be one of the UNSC's many "training simulations."

>>93173499
god these episodes were so boring

>>93173499
If Church is an AI implanted in a human body does that Tex, being an AI also, was implanted in a human body too? Apologies if I'm wrong and come off dumb. This AI stuff feels confusing to me.

>>93174054
Nope, because they come across a freelancer base later with tons of Tex robots in it so they could have a fight scene. All you need to remember is none of this shit was thought through in the first place.

Is there a point to clarifying that Church was implanted in a human body? Because I'm struggling to see one. Why not have him be in a robot body from the beginning like Tex? Then again I thought having Church and Tex be AI's in the first place was stupid and unnecessary.

>>93174765
Because IIRC there was something in Seasons 1 and 2 that referenced him having a human body.I may be full of shit, though, as I haven't watched 1 or 2 in a long-ass time.

>>93161004
The series was only good when it was a comedy, it got retarded when they started added things like the Meta and freelancers.

>>93172632

>9
Remember how hyped we were that the series was gonna be full CGI action Freelancer action? Turns out that it's a lot more boring that it sounds. CGI fights were good but that was the only high point. Everything else was retreaded to there and back in the most cliched manner possible. South's an asshole, York's a bro, we knew that already, it's terribly boring and predictable.

On the flipside the Blood gulch storyline was refreshing alongside all the edgy nonsense. The Tex-Church relationship, an ongoing arc for 8 seasons, finally came to a close rather neatly.

>8
This season suffered from an amalgation of problems that afflicted the other bottom three. It tried upping the serious action tone in season 6, but forgot to include actual plot progression. Everything was filler fight and filler comedy which really turned out meh.

But then again, who could forgot the moment when Sarge's warthog crashed through the wall and the production values hit the fan? That was awesome, to be sure.

what the fuck am I reading?

Really? 10, 12, and 13 over the BGC? Also, S14, the only anthology season, over S8 and S7?

>>93162604
Well, Chorus Trilogy is much less serious than the Freelancer stuff, and definitely focuses on the Reds and Blues a lot more, especially S11, which is basically a condensed BGC until 14-15 episodes in.

>>93169218
Wyoming over both Felix and Locus? Sure he was a pretty good antagonist, but I'd say he ultimately doesn't have that much depth.

>>93175026
>The Tex-Church relationship, an ongoing arc for 8 seasons, finally came to a close rather neatly.

Ah so I guess I won't be seeing Tex after I watch that season when catching up on RvB. That's a bummer.

To be honest I was never that fond of Church and Tex being retconned to be AI's. It felt unnecessary and caused the relationship between the two as well as Tex herself to become too serious and grim for me.

>>93175435
>he doesn't like Church

What is this shit taste?

>>93172632
When you consider what's been done to Wash by Project Freelancer, I feel like S7 makes sense, and arguably S6 depicts him nicer than he possibly should be, but maybe that's him letting his guard down around the Reds and Blues, which makes sense.

6 is best season
Sister is best girl
BGC is great but you're a faggot if you dropped it there

>>93174254
What happened to her? Did she die? Or just disappear like Tucker's kid?
I miss those guys, and Andy. Andy was great.

>>93175026
>14
A lot of people despise this season calling it fanfiction tier, but I actually sorta liked it better than I thought. Sure, sometimes there was utter garbage like the lego shit and the episode entirely in greyscale that i forgot the name of, but on the other hand you have gems like the triplet storyline. At the very least, the anthological and episodic nature kept it refreshing and unpredictable - which is more than what could be said for the seasons below.

>1-5
Here we go. The original saga that captured our hearts. The production values was literally a pre built game engine with a fucking crosshair in the center, but we kept with it due to the factors that have long buoyed the series past fourteen seasons - it's sharp, witty dialogue, colorful cast of characters and incredible voice acting. Whatever direction RvB took in the future, there is no denying this is the style that it keeps coming back to - the blood gulch chronicles forever remain the heart of the entire series.

>>93170710
My bad, I got it mixed up.
Kerry was lead director, not writer for volume 4.

>>93174765
>>93174833
They made a bunch of jokes about Church being a fatass like Burnie was back then who ate all their food.
That's why.

>>93176072
I find it a bit depressing that aside from voice roles, none of the founding members of Rooster Teeth do shit for RvB anymore.

But a lot's happened. Burnie divorced, Gus married, Geoff has a daughter and is getting more conservative, Kathleen and Nathan got kicked out, Joel gave up his acting career, etc etc

>>93176243
Why did burnie divorce

>>93161004
The recollections were good. Problem was it laid out the foundation for drama / action > comedy which went way too far in seasons 9 and 10. Same thing happened with season 13 compared to the first two chorus seasons. I do think its interesting that season 15 is pretty much saying they're getting stale. We should just watch those monster-fighting sexy teenagers

>>93176269
He met Ashley and cheated on his wife, with who he has two sons, then they divorced.

>>93176243
Kathleen got kicked out? Why? That fucking sucks, as someone who really liked Tex. When did she kicked out?

>>93170810
It's someone Carolina knows apparently. Someone in the Freelancer project.

>>93175615
In s6 he was still a Freelancer. Honestly, his attitude is justifiable in s7 given the shit he's gone through with the Project and Hargrove.

>>93175872
Lopez claimed to have killed her.
Grif claimed that was impossible because of how lucky his sister was.
Then it was shown in season 13 that both she and Junior were alive

>>93176389
Nobody's talking about it, but Kathleen made a post saying she was done with Rooster Teeth.

But that was before her brief return in season 14, so who knows.

>>93174253
They play with this and it was hilarious

>>93176269
Don't listen to >>93176309
Him and Ashley happened WAY after they divorced. Although until Ashley, Bernie never really talked about or even mentioned the fact that he got divorced. To the point where when he did start dating again, people started tweeting at his wife that he was cheating on her despite them having been divorced for like 2 years at that point.

>>93174765
In season 14 some of the shorts were back stories to how the Blood Gulch simulation was set up.

Remember that kid? Pvt. Jimmy? He became Church.

>>93176389
>>93176506
She got into a shit-fest with Barbara shortly after Barbara was hired, and she left RT but still did voice work for them.

But just recently she started even more shit on twitter basically saying Ashley wouldn't have been hired if she wasn't dating Bernie.

As much as I'm curious, things like this are why the RT cast doesn't talk much about their personal lives anymore, I would think.

>>93176243
At least Joel has his gold.

>>93176621
They got too big. They're no longer the close-knit jackasses who made their content with passion.

>>93176577
IIRC, apparently she said that most of the women in Rooster Teeth got hired because of stuff like and there's a culture of it.

Which to be fair, Meg, Lindsay, and Elyse (not sure she really counts though) also sort of fit this pattern, but screaming about it on twitter was super dumb.

>>93176669
I think that's just people taking the whole culture of it too seriously. I watch AH and RvB like I always have for years and that's about it. It only changed if you decide to explore all the new shit.

Granted there was a slump for like a year after Ray left, but they've recovered pretty well from that.

Meg maybe, but Lindsay got hired cause she knew Miles from College and was in the same group of friends along with Kyle and some others.
Her and Michael didn't even meet as far as I know until after she was hired full time.

So Wash and Carolina are totally gonna fuck now right?

They've been through so much, they deserve some sort of happiness dammit

Well that sucks. Sucks for the people who liked Tex and Kathleen's voicework for her and sucks that she felt the need to act like such a bitch and burn bridges with Rooster Teeth as a result. I guess this means we'll never see Tex ever again in RvB. Well at least she was given closure in such a way that she doesn't need to be brought back any time soon (and bringing her back may be too much effort writing-wise too). Still wouldn't have minded seeing her again though.

Also maybe people are right. Maybe we should get rid of Twitter.

>>93176946
>I guess this means we'll never see Tex ever again in RvB.

Good.

I wish they'd get away from Project Freelancer, but every time they try they end up going right back to it.

>>93176506
>But that was before her brief return in season 14, so who knows.

Season 14 was the anthology season, right? Which episode did Tex return in?

>>93177044
Episode 16

She gave two lines.

>>93175961
The follow up to the freelancer arc, this season was actually an improvement from the past, with plot threads finally coming together and character beats holding more weight as the series hurtled towards a conclusion. Many said this could be the finale of the series, and it's true, the entire freelancer storyline managed to reach a satisfying end. Although much of this season still was pretty meh(same general problems as its
predecessor), props go to the final episode, which was genuinely chilling to a tier never experienced before, and recent events beyond the screen(Burnie's divorce) probably augmented that. This last season of his is an excellent swan song.

>13
...And Miles Luna aint so bad either. The Chorus arc holds close the themes RvB has explored since day one, while at the same time providing enough action and tragedy to satisfy the other side of the tragedy. This concluding season would have been ranked higher, if not for small nitpicks such as wasted villains and predictable cliches, but all in all one of RvB's most solid entries.

>>93177353
The first para is season 10.

>>93177353
>>93177361
It always felt like the quality control of season 10 really plummeted towards the end. You can see it in the poser animation, which is just plain unfinished in a lot of spots.

>>93177416
Doesnt change the fact 10 had better writing though.

>>93177353

This is it. You all know this one. You all knew this would near the top of any RvB list. The season that changed the series forever and ensured that it would go on for many more seasons to come. The perfect mix of comedy, action, character development and mystery that wowed us all when it came out. It was the very first time RvB showed us it could be something more, introducing the Freelancers and all the lore that we know well today.

Also, Washington is RvB's best character period.

>>93161004
does anyone else feel this series died the moment they tried to take themselves seriously and have a plot?

the moment I saw the first Monty Oum fight scene, I knew it was time to check out

>>93178102
I really liked the Alpha twist, though you could see it coming. Mostly because of Church's reaction to it where he considers it bullshit and then sacrifices himself at the end of the season anyway because he's a noble asshole like that.

>>93178793
Church should never have been brought back. His entertainment value skyrocketed when he became 'Epsilon' and, since he was given way too much focus, the show severely diminished from it

>>93178770
When the Arbiter became a dropped plot point, I thought it was worth dropping until the Washington shorts. Then after Church was revealed to be the fractured Alpha, I thought it was time to drop it because of the EMP. Then when the Freelancer bullshit started up and it involved the Meta, I stuck with it. Then when the CGI fight scene happened, I wanted to quit, but Washington once again took control of the show. Then the CGI fights suddenly became interesting when Texas was dominating all of the games and ended up fucking everyone up. Then the Dakotas (or Carolinas?) fighting each other, the reveal that Flowers was Florida, and finally the ending of the Freelancer Arc made me feel like the series should have come to a close.

I couldn't get into it after that.

>>93178793
I thought the whole freelancer thing in seasons 9-13 was a slog but season 15 is going so well so far and I'm really enjoying it.

When will Grif and Simmons finally get together? They totally banged.

>>93179193
Same here. Season 15 certainly isn't perfect but I haven't felt this attached to the show in years

>>93178102
>>93178102
>12
The alpha, the omega, the absolute pinnacle of perfection of RvB. It's basically like season 6 and also like 13 but not as messy, once again managing a perfect balance of all of RvB's best aspects. Although there were many characters each and every one of them was fresh and exciting, in particular Locus, and especially Felix who came into his own when he revealed him to be an asshole and one of RvB's greatest and most enjoyable villain so far. But old characters had their share as well, with the Reds and Blues getting put through a new and interesting situation, especially Tucker, who's mini arc really elevated him to be god-tier character status along with Church and Wash. Combine that with a tightly, well structured season and there's really nothing you can fault with this season. Here's to hoping season 15 can pack the same kind of punch.

Get caught up to season 13.
Like season 10, 8, etc. it's a season that could easily work as a stopping point for the series.

>>93176813
>Implying they didn't fuck on Chorus when Tucker activated the temple
But still, as someone who's holding out naive hope that York will return someday, I'm kinda hoping Wash and Carolina get together.

I don't really care about Project Freelancer. I just care about Tex. I really liked her character and her dynamic with the cast.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJ3rg_qn8vY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxy2enCwvpY

So if she did come back that would be cool. However at the same time I understand that bringing back a character just because some people want her back isn't always the the best idea. Appealing to some fans and nostalgia for the older days can lead to bad things. Just look at what Marvel is doing with Venom right now to see what I mean.

>>93176991
>I wish they'd get away from Project Freelancer, but every time they try they end up going right back to it.

Wash and Carolina are part of the main cast right now, aren't they? I would imagine it would be hard to get completely away from Project Freelancer when you literally have Freelancers as part of the cast.

>>93181066
This. Tex was always best girl and, no matter how hard they try, Carolina can't even come lose to replacing her

>Tfw you'd kill for the chance to write for RvB but the only thing you can think of is very literally garbage-tier fanfiction that would have to be set in an alternate universe, and yet you still like the idea

>>93181340
Didn't stop Monty. Or Miles. Or Joe

>>93181405
Oh their stuff looks tame compared to the ideas I get.
>Season 12 episode 10, except Before Carolina uses the teleportation grenade,
Four-Seven-Niner blasts out of fucking nowhere with York and North, and a whole bullshit recreation of season 9 episode 4 later, The Mother of Invention shows up with all the freelancers on board, plus one or two donut steel-tier OC's that make Felix look tame.

If that ain't autistic, I don't know what is.

I was expecting Grif leaving to be followed by other team members leaving as the episodes went by, a sign of "this has been going on for too long and we want to end the series now"

or maybe Geoff finally can't handle Rooster Teeth anymore, who knows.

Id like to say yes, but not really, everytime I take a glance at how theyre doing they always seem to be pushing deadlines and swamped in other shit. So comics may have to wait, unless ones already out that I havent seen yet

>>93184602
Because you pirating for no reason.

It's the equivalent of breaking into the library to borrow some books because you don't want to wait till it's open. Man, kids these days are getting dumber and dumber.

>>93176728
I always liked watching their shorts and RvB, but that's about it. I haven't been very involved with their community in a moment, but I'm glad they're doing well enough for themselves. It kind of feels like being part of their experience from when they were filming RvB in an apartment, to their dinky little office with 15 employees max, and now they have their own filming warehouses with over 300 employees.

Well they started working on that a few years ago. This was a common complaint so they ever since then they've made it more into an action comedy series instead of straight comedy or straight action. They're all actual soldiers now (who still fuck up a lot) bu their attitudes haven't changed and even most of those around them can tell how incompetent they are. Like stated a few times that is the Chorus stuff.

>>93184851
Sorta but not really. I remember they were also gonna go animated and I think it was supposed to be an entirely separate show to air on tv but that got canned as well.

>>93161004
Why do I see RWBY threads on this board all the time yet never any RvB threads? The mods haven't taken down this thread so obviously RvB is considered /co/.

That's bullshit.
Violets are VIOLET.
That's why we named the color "VIOLET". You even have to go through Indigo to get from Blue to Violet.

>>93188841
Probably because of the Luke Mckay drawings, which had her with red hair. Pretty sure those same drawings are a big reason why Tucker is portrayed as Black.

>Although the pilot obtained very positive reception, Red vs. Blue: Animated didn't air on television and was seemingly canceled. Burnie Burns said that they had no current plans to continue the pilot, due to a lot of mitigating factors. The new series Burnie has mentioned in his journals on their website are not to be of the hand drawn cartoon variety, but yet more machinima.

>Geoff Ramsey stated that they have no current plans to continue Animated anytime soon, but instead incorporate ideas from it into the Poser animations that they now use. At PAX East 2010, it was strongly implied by the staff that production on Red vs. Blue: Animated has come to a halt, for reasons of time constraints and money issues. Geoff Ramsey commented, "We're just too lazy to work on it—we like our own schedule; we just can't work with someone else's timeframe." According to the Rooster Teeth Panel at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, the project is dead and a lot of the ideas and aspects within Red vs. Blue: Animated have been assimilated into the original machinima-based Red vs. Blue series through the use of Poser. The preview was later included on the Reconstruction DVD.

Reminder that Halo has made a good portion of RvB cannon.

>>93184930
To clarify, I'm not saying they should make and publish the comics themselves. I thinking they could allow a publisher like say Boom! for example the rights to RvB and have them make and publish the comic.

>>93190175

Pretty sure he's black. Also he's now a deadbeat black dad making child support payments. It's come full circle.

>>93192811
We don't know, but it's just generally assumed that he is. I'm pretty sure it's also hinted at a few times throughout the series, I.E. Sarge saying: "Huh, she knocked the Black right off ya"(referring to the black gunk from the teleporter), and him immediately replying with "That's Racist."
