July 4th, 2022 Question Timestamps:
-------------------------------------------
2:01 - What is a piece of merchandise that you wish existed for something? Is there anything that you’re surprised doesn’t already exist?
6:00 - Sega decides "to heck with it!" and plans to make their own version of Super Smash Bros... and YOU are put in charge of choosing the character roster! The limit is 20 characters, who will you pick? (you can choose more than one character from certain franchises)
11:50 - If someone put a slingshot to your head and forced you to say something nice about Christopher Thorndyke, what would you say? Alternatively, what would be your last words?
13:35 - Were you ever given information on the locations of the zones and where they are in relation to each other? The backgrounds for some zones are really in need of some explaining, like the giant body of water in the background of Ice Cap Zone with all the floating ice, while others can probably be pieced together, like how for the longest time I assumed that Azure Lake was the same lake in Launch Base Zone except from either a different angle or perhaps from either before the Launch Base was built on top of it or after it was potentially tore down. Any insight to these and the other multiplayer zones?
15:34 - what *is* Amy's status as a speedster? I know she's nowadays put as the speed type in racing games and multiplayer, and in heroes she was *the* speed character for her team, but in SA1 her running speed is slower than Knuckles and Tails even so game evidence can only carry it so far. In IDW we haven't seen really any speed based feats out of her as most of her fights focused on her hammer usage with Sonic doing all the speedstering.
18:06 - When it comes to stories having a character growing up, either throughout the story or sometimes a time skip, they usually are a different person from before, either from character development or something similar. While I think that it's good for stories to have that progression, ultimately for me, I sometimes think that these stories that do this can change the character very different from who they were, or be someone else entirely. While I can't say any examples that you may know, I wanted to know how you think that developing characters from one age to another age can be done effectively without losing the traits that made them so recognizable to so many people.
20:34 - If Surge zapped Metal while Kit was holding him in a water bubble, how did I not smoke Kit as well?
21:29 - While I agree Sonic is not the romantic type, wouldn't you say he's kind of a player? After all we see him whistling to Lumina in Sonic Shuffle and flirting with Nimue and Percival in Sonic & The Black Knight, not to mention a few times he flirts in spinoffs like Sonic Boom and the Archie comics.
23:51 - What would an anti team dark be like? would they still be good guys or bad guys? how would they see The Originals and how would The Originals see them?
25:26 - Sonic has stated a few times that he would happily accept Eggman to the 'good side' should he decide to turn a new leaf. If Eggman truly and permanently gave up and accepted Sonic's offer, what do you guys think that transition would look like for him?
27:31 - Another Season of what if Sonic X only this time the arc is called the death of two worlds now the quote on quote death of both Mobius and earth is happening only in a surprising plot twist it turns out that it is not really making time permanently stop as they thought in the original series turns out that Dark Gaia and Light Gaia are waking up and cause earth contains Dark Gaia and Moebus contains light Gaia and cause both light and dark Gaia have been separated both are incomplete and the only way to fix it is to merge Earth and Moebus together but the only way to do that is a chaos control of the 7 super emeralds. your thoughts and fitting on this to end the two worlds idea for Sonic X?
30:17 - Hey Ian and Kyle I got a combo question for both if you guy could do a mega man battle network/ Starforce comic would you guy do to make it awesome and we know Eggman a smart guy so I bet he did a trick early on as he put his gene sample in a gene sample back where woman can get kids so the question is if a woman how is high class but smart and down to earth and her female partner have twin and they both take after her and Eggman and find out about him the twin there as both boys, Girls or both go to see eggman and one join sonic group and the other join eggman how would he feel to have a minion that loyal to him and would not try to upstage him and they work great together him along with what kind of terror they would unlash on the world?
33:29 - One of my favorite stories from the archie comics was light mobius with king sonic and I was just wondering if it's possible that world could still exist somewhere out there in the multiverse?
34:31 - Is the modern city in the final Sonic Origins animated cutscene supposed to be Station Square, or at least a city on one of the human-populated continents? I ask this because the traffic light's "walk" symbol has a stick-figure silhouette resembling a human, rather than a Sonic-styled animal person. Was this scene meant to be a "bridge" between the classic and modern eras by having Sonic and Eggman chase each other into a human-populated city?
35:56 - In the second Annual we got to see a Metal Sonic story, short as it was. If we got to have a modern Metal Sonic & Metal Knuckles story, what might it be like? What would a modern Metal Knuckles even be like? Would he be akin to Metal Sonic, but focused on Knuckles, or something different entirely?
38:02 - In the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Prequill comic Tails mentions that Sonic was about his age when Longclaw got attacked by the Echidnas, but Tails is like twice baby Sonics size? So does that mean Tails is gonna grow up to be super tall!? Like 5 to 6 FEET tall?
39:57 - This no doubt delves into Lost Hedgehog Tales territory, but as someone who thinks Bunnie is Best Girl, just what sort of arc was she in for after she left? I know the initial plan was her being Legionized, but with the plan for Sally to be de-roboticized in issue 250, would she come to regret it? Would she stay with the D.E.L. or try to escape with Rotor and Nicole helping with those pesky bombs in her new limbs?
41:14 - Ian, I want you to grab yourself by your collar and shake yourself about while listening to this. Glomgold or Strongbad? Which one do you prefer voicing?
43:01 - You mentioned that in the original outline for the Metal Virus arc, Knuckles would've gone to fight the Deadly Six while Gemerl stayed behind to help guard the Master Emerald. How differently would the fight lineup have been in the outline? Would Knuckles have teamed up with Espio against Zazz like in Sonic's plan, or did you have different opponents in mind for those two? And would Cream have to solo Zeena without Gemerl, or would she have gotten some assistance from someone else?
44:34 - Slight Issue 50 Spoiler ISSUE 50 WAS AMAZING. Never thought I’d see the word ‘’Scumbag’’come out of Eggman, Or see him beat the crap outta someone Mano a Mano. Were there any reservations or comments from SEGA / IDW regarding Eggmans language and combat? How far can this guy go!
47:20 - Before the Gathering that turned all of the chaos emeralds into seven, the emeralds of Mobius were green. You know what else were green? The underground Nerbs! So what I'm asking is; were there Nerbs and Nerberhoods on other planets with chaos emeralds? A whole galaxy of Rainbow Nerbs?
48:18 - How would you rank the various humanoid "troop" Badniks seen across Sonic history? Those being the Eggrobos, Egg Pawns, the SWATbots from SatAM, Badnik Troopers from STC, and arguably the E-100 series. Do you have a favourite?
53:25 - Now that we’ve seen the cutscenes for Sonic Origins, I have to know: Do those fox bullies have an internal name, or are they just nameless background characters?
54:15 - One time only event at a local club! A stand-up comedy tournament with the prize of free chili dogs for a year at any participating stand! Sonic's typical crew of friends and enemies participate. What kind of jokes do they tell? Who wins this coveted prize? Does Omega take heckling well?
-------------------------------------------
1:03:07 - Thanks to those who support the show
1:06:30 - Outtake 1
The intro made me think about how many questions per video gets asked. If you were to take the videos posted so far this year (taking away the videos where no questions are asked, making 57), and get the amount of questions asked in 2022 (1848), you'd have 32.42 questions an episode. This means that this video (which has 24 questions) is below average... OR SO YOU THINK, as the livestream questions were also accounted for this, which inflates the results quite a bit.
If you were to take away the livestream videos/questions (fun fact: both the March 28th and February 28th livestreams had 107 questions asked. What a coincidence!), then you have 1,141 / 50, making the standard amount of questions a BumbleKast 22.82. If you rounded it, then it's 23, which is actually right next 24, so it's fairly accurate!
(BTW, I've timestamped about 4400 questions. I say "about" since some questions aren't on the ML, and one of the earlier videos was already done by somebody else)
@Universe And you deserve just as much recognition, if not more, considering how much more questions are in these videos now, not to mention the fact that there's more of them, and then the livestreams... THEY took a while. Good luck with the timestamping, and thanks for the help!
@@J.R.Unbound This is like Captain America Civil War but the opposite fighting. Just two giants talking to each other.
I would also love Jakks to make figures based off of Tangle, Whisper, Jewel, Belle, Dr. Starline, Mimic, Rough and Tumble and Surge and Kit aswell, maybe as SDCC Exclusives.
I would rather live in a world without more SDCC exclusives
I don't think Vector would be THAT bad in a comedy tournament lol
Major respects to Ian for quoting the European Sega slogan.
11:51 - I swear, getting Ian's hot takes on Chris Thorndyke alone justifies donating to the Bumblecast.
27:30 I'm just imagining Eggman retiring and activating Neo again and just going, "Conquer the world for me, or don't. Whatever I'm not getting an ulcer over this anymore."
For the height debuff of the Lost World Super Eggrobo, we ride on the Algorithm Quest!
Archie stuff aside, isn’t it weird that we have seen Tails and his «weird mutant twin tails» much more than we have seen normal foxes with one tail? Honestly, the normal foxes strike me as weirder than Tails in the context of the entire series…
How would you write Whisper into Sonic Boom? How did she end up there? How would she interact with the main cast? What tweaks to her personality would you make so she’d fit into the comedic atmosphere of the show?
I don’t know if she could be fit in. She’s too serious. Although, Boom was often a black comedy.
A bumbleking plush sounds adorable! I would definitely buy it if it became reality! ^-^
dammit now I want to see fan art of "high" kitsunami and bong pack related work
Ian and Kyle in the question about : " say something of nice about Chris " I would not have said, in my opinion, lovable family because "his family" is a selfish and hypocritical family where they neglected a boy causing him to fall into a semi-depression with connected loneliness and "turned their face" to his suffering by immersing themselves at work, looking after the well-being of the family does not imply that you have to neglect who you say you love otherwise you do more harm than good. Having the servants around more or less care very little because it's their job to be around the house and protect you, they care about you for sure, but they can't stay long to keep you company .. so in my opinion on this thing I disagree 🥺
Chris Thorndike does have one thing about him. I mean, despite being a badly done character, he did advance science to the point where they could transport people to different worlds/dimensions with little issue. Sure, his motives were crud and he turned back into an annoying kid, but you can't deny, he became quite the scientist.
21:32 yeah, Sonic is definitely a player in spin-offs like Archie and AOSTH.
I'd be down for a Bumble King plush! I think the design is awesome, and I will buy it!
Origins end looks like Mania, especially with the audio choice
I mean Star Force is a sequel to BN in a sense that X is a sequel to classic MM.
i mean, given the fact that post reboot can't be touched either, I don't think legal reasons exist anymore
Q&A: When are Glomgold and Big going to interview each other?
I feel like Bean’s stand up routine would be either Andy Kaufman, being so bizarre and abstract to nearly antagonizing the audience, or he’d get up, have a TON of build up, “YEEEEAAAH!! Who’s ready to get CRAY-ZAAAAY!! EH?! EH?!” Only to immediately snap into a deadpan Steven Wright bit. “Spilled some spot remover on my dog…now he’s gone.”
I would love for there to be figures of the IDW characters!
Ian, Knuckles' campaign showed that the Death Egg is missing from Launch Base Zone, it's still full of water, with Act 2 being completely flooded with water near the end. Pipes manage the water ways so I believe it's just a lake/always was with the Death Egg just damaging the ecosystem.
That video thumbnail hit me In the face with a Brick on My recommended.
Thank you
2022?? Future Rapper??
Who asked this question about the fanfic is really very creative congratulations and I am sincere when I say that I would like to read it with Chris and Sonic who meet again😁. Having said that a small clarification: the theory of two worlds has ceased for the game canon where long ago it was thought that there were two worlds (human and that of Sonic) but in the series of X the two worlds are always valid because both X and the games , movie included , they have their own canon 😁
Question: Do you know what music Surge would listen to?
I’d think she’d be listening to Korn especially after all that time from Starlines abuse towards her and Kit.
Question: Sonic Forces production credits contain a line "Zenzy Made by Masaki Miyashita". But what is Zenzy? Is it that alien language we see on Metropolis street signs? Some Avatar cosmetics? Obscure Japanese snack baked for Sonic Team members?
@BKQA So if dr starline could go throught with his plan, how would his hero/villains control of masses go ?
If Bernadette and Queen Aleena ever met, how well do you think they'd get along since they're both a mother of Sonic the Hedgehog? Would Bernadette be excited about meeting Sonia and Manic when Queen Aleena tells her about them?
Question:
If you had the chance would you make a series about Nite the Owl and his rooster “friend”? If so would what would you do with it?
In Worlds Unite which Sega and Capcom worlds would Silver, Vector, Espio, the Babylon Rogues, Tangle, and Whisper would travel too?
I want Freedom Fighters merch more than anything. If they got toys I'd buy the whole stock.
I voted on the Sally First 4 Figures statue. Of course I did.
*sigh* I miss the Freedom Fighters so much. Sonic just feels empty to me without them.
Keith Silverstein, Vectors current voice, also does Hisoka in Hunter X Hunter. Now THAT’S a nightmarish thought.
I mean, ir i have the opportunity, of course i would buy a bumblekast plushy, the crocodile with headphones look cute
I would like a Whisper figure. Eggman vs Dr.Starline was good. What happened to our favorite Eggman simp at the end, I hope he is not gone.
Id like to see seaman in a sega smash bros
Hey Ian!, i've heard many times that the chaos emerald have "unlimited power", but what does that even mean?!?, saying "power" without any extra context makes things way too open to interpretations. Has SEGA specified anything on what kind of "unlimited power" they have? if not, how do you interpret the "unlimited power" that the chaos emerald have?
I've personally tried to interpret it as "unlimited energy", but there is an instance where the chaos emeralds where fully drained (Sonic unleashed) and also where they got half drained (with Chaos drainig all the negative energy inside the chaos emeralds).
Question: Sadly I’m fairly certain Sonic/My Little Pony FIM will not happen, chance has passed. Can you share ideas on how would you approach writing it?
6:45 So you want 3 characters: lead, female lead, and villain. In a franchise where the main character IS a female, should 3rd character be the "male lead" or does it works only one way? It's not the question for the show, I'm just wondering.
Also, this question would be better with 12 characters, to reflect Smash 64
31:30 BattleNetwork and StarForces are in the same universe. StarForce is far future.
@BKQA If Sonic and Amy became an official romantic couple, how would their relationship work and play out? Like some playfully teasing and/or a strong long distance relationship?
There’s an awful lot of straight-up fanfic in this episode.
