Scratch Movie: Quest for Bugs
King of the Page!
No, if you are fired, you are fired, please go now, we are about to exclude you from the cast list. And you cannot be rehired unless you have a good reason.But you need a explanation first of all and some people changed the rules of bumping with no evidence of it being true third of all I want to be it but I’m not spamming I might quote one of my own posts not to be queen but to add a note without editing and I get easily distracted and have angry issues if you think this isn’t a good appeal how and I’m sry8to16 is the co director, if he decides to fire you for a logical reason, then so be it. You have been very offtopic and bumping, or wanting to be queen of page quite often, and you won't seem to stop. So unless you make a good appeal, well I'm sorry.zeldatheaxolotl is fired.Bruh at the near top of this page the creator said he’s not giving me a a strike but I’m close to getting one and then I’m having a break from this topic
Queen lol I just posted this and I hoped not to be queen but I am it

Here, I made a script with some ideas, but unfortunately, it was drowned out in an off-topic-tsunami (that was when people were making unofficial sequels). Could someone please give feedback? (also I have a post at the bottom of page 23)
On an unrelated note:
scratchcode1_2_3, could you link the first topic in the OP?

Scratch Movie: Quest for Bugs
Before people start animating, could I suggest we use a horizontal res of 864 instead of 640? That's the ratio most cinematic movies use these days.
Also I'll probably wait until I have a more solid idea about what needs to be done for the movie before I start creating more music. I'd be happy to help out on writing (maybe editing) if you need it, I don't really have any experience in that field but I'm sure I could do it fine if I tried hard enough.

Continuing on with this idea I had a storytelling idea that would also counteract the awkwardness of me singing the final boss music and also voicing a character at the same time. !Snip!
Oh yeah and that suggestion I said I might make ages ago
I think the moral/theme of the movie should be learning to forgive yourself for past mistakes. That's definitely something that I connect with, something I learnt from developing on this site for the past years.
The kind of counter that the villain (kaj) will show could be that he never forgave Scratch Team for banishing him to the Banlands over 15 years ago and is still dwelling on it, causing him to go insane and want to take over the site with bugs. However, just an idea, but kaj could be posing as a regular Scratcher (maybe on the forums place) under an alias.
If we involve Scratch Team as a character(s) we could make a metaphorical representation of how they are treated online to my understanding. As in, in the media of the Scratch world Scratch Team is portrayed as lazy and incompetent, not being able to find the source of all of the bugs. But once SCratch Cat and the team finally meet them it shows that they are actually much more nuanced, they do other development things for Scratch and haven't had the time to find the source of seemingly insignificant bugs, and they also have personal lives on top of that.
Anyways, back to the main theme, Scratch Cat could be overly cautious at the start of the movie and obsesses over small accidents but by the end he learns to take it a bit easier.
Anyways, that's just me throwing some ideas at the wall.
Pico/nano or whoever I'm voicing could be some sort of inspirational figure to Scratch Cat, sort of a mentor/big brother relationship. They could be a sort of catalyst to Scratch Cat's character development, of course not saying it directly but it being implied a bit more subtly, perhaps with a recurring object that represents an idea in the plot. Basically Scratch Cat wants to be more like them and realises part of it is letting past mistakes slide.
But at perhaps the start or middle, they are unable to continue/get left behind for a good reason. Perhaps with this we could show what the effects of the bugs are on charcters and how Kaj is using them to overthrow the Scratch Team/society? Scratch Cat is of course sad about this. Maybe really so to the oint that Gobo must learn to be more independant from him setting up a character arc for Gobo?
But of course by the point the final Kaj battle is at Scratch Cat is of course wanting to defeat Kaj, but he soon realises that resorting to fighting would just make him a mirror of Kaj (also tying into how Kaj is represented as a ghost of Scratch Cat) because he is dwelling on the past mistake of someone else. So he decides to forgive Kaj. Kaj just can't understand why Scratch Cat is forgiving him after all he's attemted to destroy and so hides (for an extended time?) becuase of the shame of his actions.
Edit: I forgot to put this here but the final boss theme quotes “Get JASON'D”, the first song I made for a Scratch game. So I'm probably gonna write into the lyrics something relating to the theme like "It was only a memory from long ago.
Also, since I was their voice actor it's kinda like the old character was cheering Scratch Cat on during the song. Can't believe Iforgot to put one of my main points for this entire plot bit being here in the original post :lol:
In the epilogue we could either have Kaj never to be seen again (setting up a cliffhanger for potential sequel/interpretation because that will probably never happen) or eventually get over what he did, even mainiling the Scratch Team that he was sorry for what he did all those years ago and he's astounded at how he's become a sort of cultural figure in teh Scatch community (representing what Kaj did IRL. I think second option is better)
Also edit: I was thinking it would be cool if we had a prologue and epilogue section without any dialogue (and maybe shot in sepia? That would be cool.)
Also just a little idea for the side, we could pull a Giygas and have Kaj be represented as a ghost of Scratch Cat because dwelling on the fact Scratch Team banned him years ago destroyed his body and only a hateful mind was left. Then he takes the form of his opponents.
(Yeah, I took a lot of cues from Earthbound and Undertale)
Anyways, if this gets accepted by the directors, please redirect any writers to this post or any of the followups just so we're on the same page!

Makes sense! Additionally, Kaj is sorta like an urban legend, so say like what if he became a tale told between generations? *snip* In the epilogue we could either have Kaj never to be seen again (setting up a cliffhanger for potential sequel/interpretation because that will probably never happen) or eventually get over what he did, even mainiling the Scratch Team that he was sorry for what he did all those years ago and he's astounded at how he's become a sort of cultural figure in teh Scatch community (representing what Kaj did IRL.

Actually yeah! Originally I meant that Kaj was either never seen again *or* he became friends with the mailing thing. But looking back on it it would probaly be better to have best of both worlds. And yeah, that would be really cool! Only potential probalem is that that's a lot for just the epilogue. But then again that probably won't be too much of a problem if it's just explained in the letter.Makes sense!

Also we could have Kaj be some sort of secret or something that only ST knows about to make the plot point of them going to MIT more important and elevate the plot a bit. Something like that.

Hmm… Not sure about the secret part, since kaj is well known, yet the only trace of kaj is the account existing…Actually yeah!

If can appeal again because my last appeal was unclear and the co owner of the ai generated version I made is trying to fire everyone and cancel it I need to get back so I don’t have 2 months of depression guess what something is upsetting me is happening in irl so this doesn’t help
So for the clear version
I’m sorry but I can’t snip easily because I’m right handed and it makes it sore because I always use it next time I would use my left hand and I like being queen but I don’t spam to be it and I get off topic easily with everything and about unnor I think you should tell him that he’s breaking the rules and to please stop rule breaking.
I really want my co owner to let it come back so if you expect this I would be really happy
