Homestar Runner Wiki Forum

The way I see it, I think they're starting to make the SBemails too long, and that's contributing to slower updates. In watching the first 100 on DVD, I think 2-3 minutes is just about an ideal length for them - sure, there are still several over 3 minute classics (Dragon comes to mind immediately), but the longer ones tend to have more unnecessary filler parts that drag. Plus, some of the time they're using on the E-mails could be spent towards more developed toons and shorts (or other site features) instead, and also, the 4:44 length of Boring worries me, not just because it didn't deserve to be that long, but because that's getting near the 5-6 minute mark, which is perfect for toons only, NOT for the E-mails.

TOTPD!!!!

Flashback was 5 minutes long.

True - I did forget about Flashback, but that's probably the E-mail most styled after a big toon, and the ones surrounding it were more normal length. I'm kinda more referring to several of the last few, like Do Over, Best Thing and Boring.

Oh don't think sbemails are too long. Do over kept me entertained, and boring (really) needed to be long to add to the effect. I hope TBC are planning a big update for next week seeing as all we got was a three button update.

I say, the longer the better, as long as they're funny. It would be nice if we got a big, fat, juicy update next Monday. Maybe a toon, or something.

Maybe we should ask ramrod. All of his predictions seem to come true. I'm pretty sure we'll get an above average update next week, but my mom won't let me use her blender to make a time machine, so I'll just have to... wait it out.

Ditto to everything you said there.

Off the subject of the impending update. Does anybody have any ideas for a homestar button on the toon menu?

_________________

What do you mean, "a homestar button"? Like, a section of just Homestar Runner features, or what?

Yes, meaning like a button, like Teen girl squad or Answering machine on the toons menu remote. Being the star of the show, Homestar deserves a feature.

_________________

Yeah, I wish every main character had a feature like that, especially Homestar. What I wish more than anything is for more frequent updates, though.

that would take awhile for TBC...but i think some more characters should have personal things..Like Homestar's PO Box...and Coach Z's locker..or something...

_________________

Homestar's PO box eh? it sounds like it has potential. Another thing to add to faces of alienation.

Maybe like in 2006 they wouldn't have to update for like 2 months, and then on the 10th anniversery of H*R, they could release a whole bunch of stuff for every single main charecter, almost remodelling half the site. It would be worth the wait. Definetly. Maybe they could make SBmails less often, and let the other charecters, especially Homestar and Pom Pom have a chance to shine. That would be kool.

We need some more games, man. Or at least more Stinkoman.

I never play the games at the site.

And the reason I'd like to see more toons is that the toons tend to have far more actual story than the sbemails.

Id like to see more toons exept the ones latly have little or no easter eggs. They need these if they want to have a chance on the email filled site.




Ban Low Rider Please?

No SBEmail 132, and no new toons. What are those dang brothers up to(say in 's voice)

Well their was that alamo drafthouse thing, but I think this has actually given more time to the chaps to make an update since they had the week before it AND the week after it to make something.

_________________

I think a new toon about NAZIS would be good when H*R would be fighting germans

What idiot thought the idea of putting the hole on the BUTT of them?Take a look one day!Notice those holes on top?Well thats where the Salt come out right?Well if you put the opening on butt guess what!When you go to fill them it is is going to spill and make a freaking mess all over myfloor!-Didy

That would completly throw off the balance or the H*R universe. It would be like-

- Its time-a to chech my email.
- Hey stwongbad the germans blew up Bub's concesion stand and are torchering the cheat.
- Stop making stuff up stupid.
- Sweet mercy, my arm!! (blood gore blood gore)

In conclusion- You crazy.

The Homestar v. The Nazis could be set in 1939, that universe will get there eventually. They could have a character for The Polish Translator, something similar to Lazslo from "Casablanca".

But, yeah, every A-list character (as in probably not the Poopsmith, Homsar, KoT, or Pom Pom) should have a feature.

SS already has the Lament, which I really wish they'd update. It'd be ideal to trot out on slow weeks like last week, since it's mostly just text (although easter eggs make it that much better).

More SM Claymation stuff would be super-awesome.

Homestar has the front oages, but some episodes of The Show would be cool also, especially featuring unseen or barely-seen characters like the Goblin, Captain Strong Bad, Mustache Homestar, and Biscuitdough Hands Man as guests.

Coach Z could always rap or give parenting tips.

And for Bubs, Maybe some Spamvertisements?

The Cheat is so a cow!!! A Scandinavian miner cow!!!

I think Homestar's show should undergo a makeover to make a three minute segment that's actually funny.

I actually liked Doug the Dino. I might make a movie like it one day. It would be cool to see more.

I want a homestar video game....for not atari..... like, xbox adn PS2....or Xbox 360 or PS3

Completely the wrong thread. This is toons instead of a sbemail, not What would you like to seee. (btw scrap the xbox and xbox 360, and replace it with gamecube and revolution)

[backontopic]I'd like to see some more shorts specifically. The last one was lil brudder and that was a while ago.[/backontopic]

I like Ekul's list, but I don't think they could do much with Coach Z's Raps. I can't think of anything else they could do for him, though.

Bubs should have a couple of shorts like "A Day at Bubs Concession Stand" and each character would come up and do something weird. That'd be cool.
