I've had some weird thoughts about what an Animutation by The Brothers Chaps would be like...here are some of my thoughts...

It would have a higher framerate (like Teen Girl Squad #10), of course so they could hide sublimital messages better, and it would have controls hidden in a simliar way to the old pop-up menu. Also, the only bitmaps would be the regulation animutation characters and stuff, everything else would be animated in the current style they use for regular movies.

Also, it would have Homestar characters in it of course, I'd love to see Strong Bad, Homestar, or even The Cheat lip-sync to a non-english song with fake lyrics!

Think that would be an interesting thing to see happen? If it were to happen, it would either be filed under Shorts, or it could be badged as a "Powered by The Cheat" cartoon...that would be interesting to see!
:cheat: Meh!

What else do you think would be unique about an Animutation if TBC were to do one?

For those of you at home, the answer is coming right up [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animutation"]on your computer screen[/url]. For those of you who wish to play it the hard way, stand upside down with your head in a bucket of piranha fish.

Anyways, Monty Python did it first, but Lemon Demon actually came up with the phrase. And since I just looked up what a Animutation is, it sounds weird. Would be interesting though.

Have any more ideas? I will also try and draft up a letter to send them to see if they could try it...

If you do send the letter, please do not mention the hrwiki or forum. The admins have said that they don't want it to sound as if you're speaking for us.

Well, if they did do one, it would be a perfect thing to be branded as "Powered by The Cheat"

Didn't they kind of do some Animutation with TGS 11? With the cutout images of that Olsen girl (whichever one it was)? EH?

Nah. Bitmaps arent enought for it to be an animutation. There has to be some extremely random stuff there. Having entire paragraph show up for one frame is a trademark. Music is present about 90% of the time, but isnt entirely necessary.

TGS 11 had a storyline, consistent artwork (apart from judith), little color, and normal settings.

Yeah, Animutations are more like Music Videos, set to non-English songs most of the times, and most times they have transmutations of the actual lyrics into English phrases that make no sense at all!

Best Examples:

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/91829 (watch out, Very Trippy)

Come on, if The Cheat could animate "Sweet Cuppin' Cakes" and have it turn out BETTER than his other cartoons, TBC could easily intergrate their current animation style into the bitmap based stuff going on...and still be able to pass it off as The Cheat's work!

Umm...who said that The Cheat ever animated SSC? To the best of my knowledge, the only time he had any sort of SCC character in one of his toons was Eh! Steve in the e-mail Crazy Cartoon.

Oh...sorry...

But still, The Cheat could be good at Animutation...or maybe Strong Bad could do it on his new iMac (and he happenes to become pretty skilled)...then they could use the normal TBC animation style...

Or, that might be a pretty good Strong Bad Email, kinda like Rock Opera in a way...
