ADVENTURE TIME OBSIDIAN EPISODE 1 FULL EPISODE MOVIE

Like the series finale, “Come Along With Me,” “BMO” runs about 45 minutes, not a movie exactly but four times as long as a regular episode, and with plenty of heft and room to run around in.

(“Let’s forget we saw this, just another ineffable mystery in a universe full of mysteries.”) He puts on a cowboy hat, picks up a ukulele and sings a song about potatoes (“more exciting than tornadoes”) this western theme will continue, in a small way, as BMO plays new sheriff at the decaying space station where he will eventually wind up. “Did you know there are more stars in the sky than there are grains of sand … in the sky? It’s true.” A comet passes by, eaten by a sort of space moth and excreted as a kind of “2001: A Space Odyssey” star child, which turns into, like, a portal, through which BMO passes. BMO is piloting a space capsule on a mission to Mars.

I’ll skimp on specifics, apart from the opening minutes, which have been available as a trailer for a little while now. (“Obsidian,” coming later this year, will feature vampire Marceline and Princess Bubblegum “Wizard City,” starring Peppermint Butler, and “Together Again,” with Finn and Jake - because, of course - round out the order.) Most important, it is largely the work of “Adventure Time With Finn and Jake” hands, prime among them Adam Muto, who ran the show after creator Pen Ward handed over the keys halfway through Season 5. (This is, to be sure, the case in the real world, regarding everyone we don’t live with and to some extent those we do.)īut relatively little time has passed since “Adventure Time” ended like post-Fox “Futurama,” “Distant Lands” is more continuation than revival - it hasn’t been gone long enough to need reviving. There are characters we rarely glimpse who, if we credit them with life, must be up to something when we aren’t looking at them. Much is known about the Land of Ooo, but there are stories to be told before and after and in between the stories we’ve already been told. The series fulfilled an arc, but when you have created a believable if bizarre wide world and filled it with memorable characters, the least of whom suggest unexplored dimensions and depth, you still have a lot of room to move. I will tell you now that the magic is intact. (There has been some discussion, among fans and chroniclers, of the character’s gender or lack of one - some use the pronoun “they” - and the series plays around on that point but Niki Yang, who plays BMO, has described him as a little boy, and I’ll use those pronouns here, despite the ambiguity. The first of these, “BMO” - which comes under the umbrella title “Adventure Time: Distant Lands,” referencing the original series’ theme song - stars the adorable, indomitable BMO, pronounced “Beemo.” Last seen narrating the series finale from a time far in the future of the already far-future time in which the show was set, he is the right little sentient robot for the job. And four new specials have been commissioned, the better to get you to subscribe, my dears. The eight-year run of that lovely cartoon about love and war and play and drudgery and jealousy and generosity and birth and death and everything under the postapocalyptic sun and moon has recently fetched up to stream in its entirety on HBO Max (Cartoon Network is a branch on the same corporate tree).
