That was fucking awesome, i love how there moving forward with this instead of staying in the past.
All these references are a bit outdated. True, rocko has never been exactly on top of pop culture but everything seems like the crap that bad comedians a decade ago would talk about. The energy drink craze isn't even relevant anymore.
Rocko's Postmodern Life
Are these all the original voice actors? They all sound pretty spot on.

Tom Kenny and Mr. Lawrence (Heffer and Filbert) are still on Spongebob, so I don't think it would be that hard to get them revise their roles. Not 100% sure if Carlos Alazraqui is voicing Rocko though, but he most likely is.

My college class mates must be behind on the times then.

that was the first thing i noticed, but it might just be a thing for the promo, to introduce that they're in the present. the movie might not be too centered on the references
They should've named the "O-Store" the "O-Spot" instead, it could've been a multi-layered reference to orgasms and the episode where he had a job as a "Phone Operator."
I have a feeling they tried, though.
So I have a question where is spunky?
All my yes. I was gonna write a long winded paragraph but i'd rather not so YES.
that was a hoot
I like everything but the pop culture references. The Simpsons are already doing that shit and look at what's happening to them.

i legit think the artstyle benefits from the technology of the time, same with ed edd and eddy[/QUOTE]
Yeah but imagine the feedback over a new art style.

the art style being the same is great and it looks incredible in hd
you just aren't used to it

He's in the very start when they're running around.

Except this is an establishing scene where it shows everything new in Rocko's life, it shows they're not in the 90s anymore. The Simpsons always put some pop culture reference in their episodes and quite frankly it has been common for them for decades now, Simpson's problem is just being way too old now and extremely tired.
I am actually pretty excited to see this, I wish Netflix still had the original series up so I could re-watch it. I hope they didn't just show all the good jokes though

Right at the beginning
Oh shit I never realised the B52's did the theme song.

I'm not saying that energy drinks aren't still a thing but there was this media blitz about them in the early and mid 2000s that sort of died down
[QUOTE=LuaChobo;52491156]it doesnt feel anything like the fever dream this show was when i was a kid[/QUOTE]
Because you're not a kid anymore
Rocko's modern life is my fucking life blood. This honestly made me tear up a little, everything felt perfect.
[QUOTE=LuaChobo;52491156]it doesnt feel anything like the fever dream this show was when i was a kid, the warped architecture and general style + varied colours on low def feels inherently different than it does in hd imo, i aint sayin it looks bad im saying i probably wont get the same feeling i got from the show originally[/QUOTE]
Your mind as a kid tends to fill in a lot of blanks, which makes things seem better than they actually do.
That's why we can see the charm in real old video games while newer people that didn't grow up with them think they look like trash
more innuendo's please
