Meet Grey! Kinda obvious, but he's a character I've made a long time ago, and now he's in Greyscales! (he's not the main character tho)

Being part of the Algodoo community, usually a red eye means "they're evil." So just to be clear, Grey in this universe is NOT EVIL. He was actually born with white eyes, a common trait in the GS universe.

also is this art style experiment #10? i guess idk...

Ok. So there is a chance I will not make another subscriber count history any time soon. Why? Because Socialblade's UI is not efficient for data collecting. Plus, I don't have a reliable source to find data from 2020-2024. I can only use Wayback Machine, which I have noticed has been getting slower each time. So, if anyone can recommend me any sites that could help me gather data, that'll be very helpful. Who knows? Maybe I'll add another installment to this series.

My review of Toy Story 5 (DON’T READ IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED IT, also a review for the TADC finale is in this post too)

I actually thought the movie was good! The thing about this movie is that there are 3 subplots: Jessie at Blaze’s, Woody and Buzz with Lily, and the Buzz Lightyear army. The movie aiming at Jessie was a good choice. The army scenes are interesting, and a little confusing to be honest… and Zurg is Buzz’s dad, that’s officially lore, put it in. And I’ve never heard of a poncho before.

As for Lily, she’s cool, but she’s one where I can understand her intentions and she made me laugh a few times. Lily making fun of Jessie and Woody’s age was a funny scene. Also, when tech runs out of power, they become drunk, like Baymax at low power from Big Hero 6. Instead of being thrown out, she’s reformed, she stays with the gang. The message is that technology can’t be replaced, but can be used for other purposes. It’s like fire, where is used to burn, but also for warmth. Also, that love story between Buzz and Jessie? Kinda unnecessary, but I’m sure that’s the “fan service.” As for the new characters, they’re fine. Smarty Pants is a bit annoying, but it’s clever Pixar showed old types of technology, especially the “bring money” part. I love the references to modern internet culture. Apparently Disneyland is a thing in the Toy Story world, so okay. Also, if there’s a 6th Toy Story, I feel like it’s gonna be a cash grab. Sometimes you have to end something when it’s at its highest.

Lastly, is it better than Toy Story 4? Yes. 4 wasn’t much of my cup of tea. When you have to continue something that originally intended to end after the 3rd movie, it’s hard to top it. 4 didn’t have much purpose or relatability for me, while 5 did, as it felt more structured for me.

Anyways, Toy Story 5’s good, you should watch it. The “5” is just a number.

Also, I watched the TADC finale yesterday, so here's my review for it: (DONT READ IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED IT YET)
A masterpiece, not the perfect episode, but amazing. I had predictions from Twitter posts, and almost all of them were wrong. Jax abstracting was a bit unexpected, but I felt like TADC had a life lesson in life overall: *You shouldn't escape the life you live in, but preferably changing it to something better than before...*

Anyways, time to make a 2 minute tribute of TADC, which may come out in the next week!

so i decided to rewatch my algicosathlon III series (for the hell of it) and my god, i do not remember the 1st image. i did not understand love or disease back then, and you can definitely tell it was made by a kid. (i wonder why the algicosathlon community was into love and relationships back then) and my drawings from late 2024 made it look like everyone was malnourished...

kinda a vent post, but for white and black in greyscales, there will be a 3rd stick figure that is ACTUALLY coming from algicosathlon III! and it's actually a GREYSCALE! hope you meet him!

Hey! Want to recommend some video ideas with the Greyscale shorts? Community interaction would be cool! Who knows? Maybe your idea will be a short someday!
