Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar

Judging by the other reviews, it seems like fans really just wanted more Metalocalypse. That's great, but after binging the series, I really did want to know what it was all about. The production value here was miles above any in the series. At first ir seemed odd to have less metal in Metalocalypse, but the music was honestly amazing. It truly felt epic, which is how a finale should feel. And the art? Oh my God, the art. Those backgrounds were absolutely beautiful, and I'm a sucker for a beautiful, bloody apocalypse - reminds me of my dreams. People have noted the comedy was lackluster, which may be true, as I don't really remember much about the jokes, but the rest of it left a mark ans I found the whole thing a lot of fun.

This was a ok finale but I prefer the last movie over this one. This movie didn't have great songs and didn't give its story to us in a great way. The jokes were pretty lame as well. When I heard this wasn't going to be a full musical like the last movie I was hoping that they would have brought back some of the great humor but found it pretty lacking. The scene in the church was probably the best comedy bit but there was a bit too much seriousness in most scenes. The fact Nathan never even got to say his tagline 'Brutal' was pretty disappointing in the least because there was Just sooo many times just that one word could have been uttered and it probably would have got a laugh out of me but no. They needed to keep everything semi-serious just not there comedy which they kept pretty basic... although there was a 'Plug' joke that got me.

The story on the other hand was alright, I liked how all the characters were used and the cameos. The entire series wasn't really strong in this category, in fact it was pretty much a major joke until it wasn't. That said the revenge story of the last movie was much better, but taking this story as serious as they did may have been a mistake. Oh well, at least 'The Fans' got what they wanted hopefully, it was a love letter to those that kept the show alive after all as its pretty apparent they read their fan-sites.

Well, where to start...

After the original Metalocalypse show ended and after The Doomstar Reqiuem, this was supposed to be a grand finale that would conclude the excellent series we know as Metalocalypse.

Unfortunately, this movie is not even a shadow of the former show, this is just another failure.

The characters here are now whiny shadows of what they once were. The show deserved a proper ending, but this movie is a disaster.

It just goes to show that the entertainment industry has almost nothing to do with entertainment anymore.

Dethklok was perfect as it is, fun and brutal, but that's clearly not desirable in the movie industry anymore.

Dethklok is now a group of pathetic whining losers, especially Nathan Explosion, who is now constantly whining and saying how hard it is for him. Total destruction of fun characters.

The music is good, the voice acting is solid, but that's how it should be.

What is catastrophically bad is the script, as if we are not watching Metalocalypse, but something completely different. And that's not what we wanted to see.

A complete waste of time.

Metalocalypse was one of my favorite shows to watch in high school. Skwisgaar Skwigelf taught me how to sweep pick. To see it get a finale after all these years is wonderful. The plot of Doomstar was serious and less focused on the show's quirky humor, but it was still awesome. There were new songs, returning characters, beautifully animated sequences, and a cool acknowledgment to all the fans of the show. Although, I'm a tiny bit disappointed the Finnish Lake Troll and Mashed Potato Johnson didn't make a cameo. But whatever. Thank you Brendon Small and Tommy Blacha for creating this show and making all the fans happy.

It is a mark set to inflate the entirety of the journey the introduced representative depth of character is a leap forward towards distinctive future of the entire series.

Character development, psychological realism perpetuating the notion of dramatic progression into the unknown.

Truly desired by the fans and the perceptive crowd.

One of the standout aspects of Army of the Doomstar is its stunning animation. The visuals are beautifully crafted, with intricate details in each character and their surroundings. The dark and gritty atmosphere perfectly complements the heavy metal theme and adds an extra layer of immersion to the viewing experience.
