Now, let's review the 3-minute short episode of ChalkZone starring Snap. It's called, Chocolate Brunch.
Around breakfast time, while looking for food, Blocky finds some eggs and he and Snap bring them back home. By the time Snap finishes cooking the eggs, they hatch and they reveal to be chocolate bunny rabbits. Snap, being a carnivore that he is, wants to eat the bunnies, but Blocky won't let him, slapstick ensues! Pat Ventura was pretty good at writing this stuff more than those Jamal the Funny Frog shorts on Oh Yeah! Cartoons. No wait, he storyboarded this, not wrote it, Jenny Nissenson wrote this episode. Sorry about the incident.
This short is REALLY FUNNY! I couldn't stop laughing at all the slapstick in this episode. Snap never feels out of character, it's just that he feels hungry, why couldn't they go for the waffle fly they were chasing at the beginning? And I like that after the bunnies pop out of the buns and say to Snap, "Daddy!" causing a boing sound effect and Snap cries in a comedic fashion and ultimately gives in simply by saying, "Oh, I just can't do it!" The one thing that still bugs me is that they had to pitch shift Blocky's voice despite the fact that he's voiced by Robert Cait. What was wrong with his natural voice, and another thing, I like Candi Milo as Blocky more than Robert. However, I have nothing against Robert Cait.
What's the verdict? It's a genuinely funny episode! At least Snap and Blcoky's hunger were satisfied when the mother bunny gave them chocolate milk. All I can say is that that's a nice turn around from being an angry monster trying to kill Snap and Blcoky to an actual mother figure for those bunnies. All I can say is that don't do any of this stuff, especially steal her eggs, if you mess with the mother bunny, she'll mess with you.
Peace.
