Hora de Aventura: Tierras Lejanas

I do love the clown claiming to be a "real fan" and then dissed this as "garbage". they must lead a sad, sad life huffing their own gas hoping to be king of all fans.

sorry, clown, but this rules! Adventure Time has thousands of stories left to tell, and just because they ARE telling more stories doesn't mean it's a corporate cash grab.

grab some candy and sit down and DIG IT.

Honestly I was extremely pleasantly surprised by this first episode of "Distant Lands", featuring and named after one of the most beloved characters from the original series, the endlessly lovable BMO, and this episode certainly is a whirlwind from start to finish that never stops giving, a rollercoaster of emotions and just what we needed to see for a first dive back into the world of Adventure Time.

Personally I thought they really ticked pretty much all the boxes for what I would expect and want from a spin off - there were a lot of voices and characters (some more obvious than others) from the original, there were actually lots of references to the original series from characters to plot points and especially some of the new info dropped about the universe of AT which we never got in the original. There really were some quite big reveals and a fair few other references that are more mysterious in nature, as well as some that only megafans will catch. I wasn't particularly expecting this spin off to expand too much on the original universe, you never really know how much a team wants to touch anything surrounding the source material, especially with a show as fondly remembered as "Adventure Time", so this was a nice surprise for me and I really hope they continue this trend in the other three episodes as I have rarely been so invested in the lore and world building around a show so much as Adventure Time.

The hour long format is great for the Adventure Time writers and allows a story to be built and developed a bit more easily, or perhaps deliberately, than in the original series, and although I'm only giving this a 9 right now I can see that changing when the other 3 parts have been released, if they are all of this quality I would be happy to revise that to a 10 and of course I very much hope that's the case. I would 100% recommend this to anyone who liked the original show, I fail to see how you could be a big fan of Adventure Time and not enjoy this spin off, if you haven't seen it yet, what are you doing?! Go watch it NOW!!

1 episode is out and it makes me exited for the future of a great show like Adventure Time

The setting is totally different, the characters are mostly new, to be sure, but the sometimes chaotic flow to the narrative and the band of non-kidnappers remains. That's what made the original series and spin-off so unique. And yet, Adventure Time: Distant Lands - BMO is also more streamlined, a little bit smaller, as it does not have the advantage of exploring its mythology over dozens of episodes like its predecessor.

The little saga includes a reasonable amount of knowledge and characters at that time of execution. We met the young teenage scientist rabbit Y4 who makes observations on a failed space station called 'The Drift'.

The problem is when you feel a little rushed when it comes to stories and development of relatively new characters. There is simply no time for fans to develop an emotional and deep attachment to these characters when their lives are overturned, we feel something strongly in one way or another. Fortunately, BMO acts as an emotional anchor in this case. If this freelancer had simply started following these new characters, he would have felt derived, a pale imitation of what made the original Adventure Time so good. For both the characters in this special and the viewers at home, BMO is here to save your day.

So sick of these "Real Fans". Seems like every show's got them, and they all suck. Just because you love something, doesn't mean it belongs to you, or you're somehow more "real" of a fan. These "Real Fans" always think any changes made to their beloved show are an abomination. Hey Real Adventure Time Fan, you know that Fin and Jake story ended right? It was 10 seasons long and wonderful the entire time, up to and including the ending. This is a new story and it's different. Different can be good, and this is good so far. To everyone else, if you liked Adventure Time and aren't an insufferable tool, you'll probably like this. Give it a shot.
