My favourite thing about this video is right after uploading the guy who animated Jimmy messaged me "oh the rendering must've messed up I actually animated Jimmy's mouth moving for the whole thing..."
Haha.
Lmao
Whys the info so late o.o
đđđ
REMAKE
Jimmy willingly gave up his intelligence in one episode because he thought it just made everyone around him miserable. Thatâs about as selfless as you can get.
It was more so for himself.
@Xx The SteamPunkz xX so that would means does things for himself.
People think heâs a bad character why?
â@@thedude8457 I don't think Jimmy is a bad character, he just happened to have flaws.

Connan O Brian is the only good late night show.
Jimmy never opening his mouth while talking is a bit off putting
This Jimmy and Jeff Bezos in South Park would get along well. Cross-over confirmed
@Nebula nÉbjÊlÉ They are not THAT nightmarish...
his mouth moves but it doesn't open
He's so "smart" that he can use telepathy to talk
I wonder why they didnât bother to rig his mouth
That Jimmy animation was so close to being perfect, but his damn mouth doesnât even move!
Yeah it even looked cleaner than the original
The mouth moved if you look closely, but it doesn't open. Maybe a side effect of his voice-changing ray?
@@Rognik one trade of animation for an other that is the trade off
Yuuup
I know
Jimmy has more of a personality than actual celebs
FACT
Agree
Stop popping up
That's not a high bar to get over, but certainly true.
so we meet again
Woah I canât believe that you got the real jimmy neutron to host your show thatâs amazing
đŽi don't surrender
LS Mark has really come far
Me too
is this sarcasm, I cant tell.

Jimmy is feeling sodium-chloride about being called unlikeable.
"You mean salt right?"
"Thats what I said; sodium chloride."
"so... salt?"
"Yea, *sodium chloride."*
He's salty then
You mean he feels as though he is holding a quantitatively large amount of sodium-cholroide?
Fox
sodium-chloride-esque
All jokes aside the animation on Jimmy is pretty great
Eyyy you! đ
Although the models donât hold up to much sadly edit:in the real show
More Guball
But his mouth never move
Animation-dated
Writing and overall quality-still awesome
Sure heâs a bit too cocky, but itâs called a *CHARACTER FLAW.*
Yeah, plus he's most often trying to prove himself. Which is largely caused by Cindy trying to tear him down. Which is caused by her own inferiority complex that Jimmy stole her claim to being the smartest kid in school.
Two character flaws that conflate to cause problems. But are also gradually improved as they become better friends.
@@vision4860 This!! ^^^^^
he has right to be cocky. he's a fucking super genius mega brainiac who is a master mathematician, physicist, chemist, and basically everything else science-related.

Well, if Nickelodeon didn't cancel this show, they'd become a couple and end their rivalry in the planned Season 4.

Mark you got to tell me did you actually get the voice actor for Carl wheezer
That sounded nothing like Carl lol
It was, though
Definitely sounds like Rob Paulson
That had to be Rob, you can hear his tones under the voice (or maybe that's just me, I study voice acting lmao)
@@Raichous Exactly, his inflections and such are distinct

To bad Netflix will remove it
Jimmy Timmy Power Hour: BRUH!
Jimmy is so smart, he figured out how to speak without opening his mouth AND stole Meat Canyonâs voice.
whoever thought of the idea of making a spin off jimmy neutron and have sheen as the main character was really trying their best to make the parents go insane
Planet Sheen should be better off as a movie or a mini-series instead of a spin-off with less toilet humor and more character development.
They ended up making the kids go insane.
@@poweroffriendship2.0 A 4th season would've been nice to wrap things up though.

He is just as adorable as Spongebob đ
Props to you, Mark! The animation was really smooth and impressive. It seems like you put a lot of time into this, and Iâm glad it paid off!
Oof
QuidGamer Stop nah, he didnât even open his mouth, although itâs good
Big Smoke be was supposed to, but it didnât render rightz
clow foe
Johnny quasar looks different then I remember
@Cameron Hudson yes but the pilot, and I already made the joke on the community post, so I brought it back
yeah it's really strange how he looks different then I remember him
Age really screws with a person, as the ghost of Macaulay Culkin can attest.
Don't you mean kent quasar? Or buzz atoms?
@@NonStopKnocks no. The pilot of the show starred a character known as johnny quasar. The pilot isnt very well known because its nearly counted as lost media
It's been awhile since I've watched the show, but i remember Jimmy as being nothing but nice to his friends and the people around him. Everyone he wasn't nice to there was some kind of a reason for. I also remember him being VERY relatable and feeling like an actual kid like me at the time, just super smart.
In the movie, Carl shows him an amateur frog drawing and Jimmy shows him blueprints for a "2nd prototype" and Carl secretly feels inferior for a second. What I love about that moment is when Jimmy says "that looks great Carl" he means it 100% and sees his blueprints as equally decent as Carl's frog. I honestly love that character moment because it shows how smart Jimmy is, how doofy Carl is, and how neither of them see themselves as any more important.
Why did I try so hard in phrasing this correctly?
That's because frogs are RAD
I miss that Jimmy. In his movie version, he was shy and kind and admits he wrong that what a true genius does admitting they are not always right, while the tv series heâs arrogant and never learn his lesson not to mention he such a killjoy know it all hate to admit heâs wrong.
Since when did people even think Jimmy was an unlikable Character , that's definitely not how I saw him as a kid .
I started to watch some of it in quarantine and honestly their isn't anything really wrong with his behavior, it's well written for the character but it may have just not have aged well
@@Maloz-se1rf I think when you're a boy genius trying live and prove yourself around normal peeps things can get a little silly. I don't think Jimmy is a bad character. I definitely know I liked him more than Timmy.
Same her and even now I don't dislike him.
@@BearBoyJW Timmy wasn't a bad character. He was a nornal boy who just wanted peace. The world is litterally out to get him.
When Cindy practically told them to.
I was honestly expecting him to go all *âJokerâ* on him.
Woah dude is that the REAL jimmy neutron???!? In the video??!?!?
It's MeatCanyon

johan wendell - original music Your not funny
@@hotel_arcadia did you like your own comment?
@@Rickiemesa no I liked my comment
Dad, are you back from those errands.
Jimmy is communicating telepathically which is why his mouth doesnât move
I always felt sorry for Jimmy; since he was treated so poorly by many others. Sure; he may be a bit egotistical, but I always figured that he was that way because he was compensating for a lack of self-esteem; given how he was mocked for his height and lack of athletic ability. And frankly; Jimmy Neutron is not sexist. His beef with Cindy Vortex was over a rivalry between them. Cindy always sought to prove herself superior to Jimmy, and vice versa. Apart from Jimmy; the smartest student in the entire school is Cindy. Naturally; the two would be intellectual rivals, and every time Jimmy caused a girl distress directly; that girl was always Cindy, and it was almost always payback for something Cindy did to him. That's often what kids do, so no; I don't think Jimmy is even remotely sexist.
That's what I was thinking. I mean, being mocked and treated poorly all the time around his age, than it's obvious he would try to have some pride in himself.
@@TheWillikids Everyone except Jimmy and Betty are scoundrels who lack humility, forgiveness and love. They don't even have the word "love" in their dictionary
I'm glad you made this! I agree with you. Jimmy was never the cool kid for being smarter than his peers, and they actively put him down, which is a realistic thing that would happen among 10 year olds.
Within his family, he's also misunderstood. Hugh isn't that smart and just wants the best for his son, and Judy probably knows it's better to support her son (within reason) and give him the appropriate attention for his smarts, so he continues on.
I'd unironically watch an LS mark late night show where he "interviews" fictional characters
Whoâd you get to voice Carl? The voice is spot-on!
I think that's actually Rob Paulson
Rob Paulson has a Cameo
His name is Robert Paulson
Who thought Jimmy was unlikable? He's not like Timmy Turner who creates all of his problems out of selfishness to the point its actually a fully understood common flaw to be expected by characters in the universe. Jimmy's character feels like the one Butch was going for with TImmy but just dropped the ball as the series progressed.
WAIT DID YOU ACTUALLY GET CARL WHEEZER OMG
Mystery nerd that is awesome
I literally just became a patron to draw my oc chillin with LS Mark.
Cool i really like the idea
Seeing this channel grow and get better when I've been here so long is so cool to me

I was wondering if you were gonna mention Planet Sheen
Dude I canât believe u got the actual voice actor
Uncle Al shouldâve made a guest appearance as Hugh.
YES
Man I literally just remembered I had a Jimmy neutron toy when I was a kid. After all these years, and never forgetting the show for an instant, the one thing related to this series was my having a Jimmy toy.
Yes it was a jimmy will a yellow shirt though I don't recall if it was the one in the video or not.
Now I remember being disappointed it had a yellow shirt though because he never had one in the show and I wanted an accurate toy.
Hell I think the toy i had was out either before the show started or very early into its run.
Though the movie will always have a soft spot in my heart. As well as that glorious start to the series "When pants attack".
Oh! I loved that special so much and it was about freaking pants for God's sakes.
Sucks we have to go on archive.org and view a VHS verison of the first episode just because hulu doesnt have it DX
12:06 The Squidward on a chair caught me off guard, but I'm glad it did. Honestly the most hilarious part of the video imo.
Remember that time Jimmy turned into a werehog? Or that time he had a sword? Or that time he Ki...
Jimmy had a rocky transition into 3d
Takeshi Tatnall Jimmy was never good his TV shows havenât aged as well as Planet Sheen

Joker on The LS Mark Show
What will he do?
Yes, old meme is old, but I couldnât resist.
Way I see it, Jimmy is a child genius in every sense of the word. One can say he was too smart for his own good at times. But I think that's what worked for his character, despite being a genius he still showed he had more to learn from those around him that he could hopefully use to fix his mistakes.
the 3D jimmy is charming but the mouth is uncanny
I feel like a 2D animated mouth could have worked
I think thats part of the joke since there is a low budget.
Oh my God, you got the real Jimmy Neutron on your show! How far you have come indeed
But like can we appreciate the person who animated Jimmy
God, why did I have a feeling that MeatCanyon would be a part of this video before even clicking it? He and Mark make a pretty good combo!
5:20 I was right yesterday he WASNâT able to handle the neutron style after all
Facts: Judy Neutron and Leni Loud are the best Nickelodeon Waifus!

@Phineas&Ferb,JohnnyTest&RBUKFTW WG&PAWPatrolFTL And i respect your opinion.
Also tell her that the food sucks over there, it's like as if someone sneezed on it.
As for the infamous Scoot episode; Scoot the wise was trying to teach Jimmy that just because heâs smart doesnât mean heâs above everyone else by giving him worse jobs. Jimmy did everything out of JEALOUSY, not because heâs a shitty person.
Jimmy is a CHILD!
He is a BOY GENIUS!
He has childish impulses.
It wasn't because of jealously.
He wanted to prove everyone wrong.
I thought the voice guy was Max G, turns out its Meat Canyon.
Those two should collab
Ok, being born in 2001, I always thought that it was show and possible the movie in the middle or a supposed ending. I never thought that is the beginning.
Why my man carl wheezer didnt get the spinoff ill never know, but jimmy was the man case closed
Because Carl would never stand up as a character on his own. We saw that already with Planet Sheen too.
Heck, Jimmy wouldn't have stood well on his own without Carl and Sheen either. I just think people forget that because he's the titular character. They're a nearly perfectly-balanced trio imo.
@@vision4860 well what im saying is that out of sheen and carl, carl would have made the better spinoff
Wait people actually think Jimmy neutron is a bad protagonist, Why?
Because a protagonist that isn't a Mary Sue and has flaws is unlikeable to people... =(
â@@KyleEvraYet the reason why people hate Mary Sue characters is because they have no flaws
Iâve always hated the claim that he doesnât care about Carl and Sheen and is only friends with them because theyâre dumb and quick to praise him, or easy to manipulate for his tests. Admittedly he does use Carl as a guinea pig a lot, but itâs clear that he deeply cares about them both.
They became friends because they were all bullied in school and they were the only ones to give each other a chance. Before Cindy and Libby started hanging out with them, they didnât have any other options for friends. They also bond over some common interests like movies and video games. Plenty of episodes were dedicated to him building inventions/spending time helping Carl and Sheen, like when he helped Sheen get smarter.
Thereâs plenty of other things people exaggerate or misinterpret about his character but that one always bothered me
Jimmy Neutron's one of those "genius characters" who actually have a high EQ. most "genius characters" aren't depicted like that. characters like Rick or Sheldon Cooper always have a superiority complex. Jimmy never came across as a jerk
Who could be a jerk at times but mostly due to his age.
0:14 how dare you remind me of that's existence lmao
About the whole "Jimmy Neutron's a sexist" thing. I always figured that him being at odds with Cindy had to do with the fact that Retroville's supposed to be a throwback to the 50's and 60's of small town America. You've got all these wild hairdos, kids hang out at a milkshake parlor, antiquated viewpoints betwixt boys and girls, that sort of thing. That's why, while the boys in Fairly Odd Parents were obsessed with getting the girls they like to notice them, the boys in Jimmy Neutron were more aligned with the Cooties school of thought. This eventually dissipates over the course of the series as the characters grow more and more until Jimmy and Cindy are basically in a relationship in all but name.
So yeah, that's my thoughts on that.
Ah, yes, my favourite cartoon.
The LS Mark show.
i always thought this show was a great example of how to handle a overpowered mc.
I see you put so much work and love into your videos. Itâs great to see man, keep it upđđŸ
I'm surprised people thought Jimmy was unlikable when everything they accuse him of could be applied to Cindy Vortex who I found to be more annoying. Especially with her surly attitude and shallowness. Tbh aside from Jimmy's friends and a couple of the adult characters I found everyone in the show to be unlikable. People actually can't say Jimmy's inventions causing the problems are deserving of scorn when as Mark pointed out are never intentional and when the townsfolk are already unlikable its kinda hard for me to care.
Damn my guy, you can really feel the effort you put into this video.
Don't worry.
Things will all make sense on...
PLAAAAAANNNETTTTTT SHHHHEEEEEEENNNNN
But... this wasn't Planet Sheen... it was just the theme song... to JIMMY NEUTRON
Oh no!
lol my guy! The airline food joke made me laugh SO H A R D
Jimmy Neutron was one of my absolute favorite characters growing up, and I wanted to be like him.
The cockiness was what made the show funny to me, and the way the world reacted to him and rejected his smartassery at times was hilarious and relatable.
Thanks for having Meatcanyon in this vid, its so cool hearing him returning as Jimmy again
Why has there not been another episode in this style mark?? This was brilliant really enjoyed it.
0:15 wow... what a reference.
WELP
I know
Guys, the reason why his voice was changing was actually because he had to replace each of his clones that he accedently zapped with aging serum with different amount of doses to prove to Cindy how much of a man he is....very poetic Jimmy, I applaud youđand ya, he told me that the other day, I followed him on facebook.
...also the reason why his mouth wasn't moving was because he accedently drank a bottle of glue instead of the glass of milk next to it while he was making his clone machine.
It's still remarkable that some of his clones who have carried the glue symptoms, mouths could actually move at all.
The sad thing is that sounds like a episode I know don't exist đ
Next time get a board that can handle the N E U T R O N S T Y L E.
I mean Jimmy had an ego to him sometimes for his genius, but I never thought if him as unlikable. I even feel bad for him sometimes when his friends and peers put him down for being smart. Smart he went in this talk show to defend himself.
00:06 Was that an Ultraman? LS Mark, you gotta share your Ultraman love.
Your bits with Tara Strong and Rob Paulson are fucking GOLD
The "Hey Jimbo" meme when not used for edgelord truths were pretty great though
Love the video you can really see all the work you put into it great job
I've never seen Jimmy as an unlikable character. Is he abrasive at times? Sure. Does he cause a lot of his own problems? Of course. A lot of other Nicktoon and cartoon protagonists in general get themselves into major trouble they have to get themselves back out of. Hell, I wouldn't even say Jimmy is the least likable character in the show. Carl, Carl's parents, Cindy, her parents, the principal, Nick, the gym teacher, and other characters would rank worse for me. Jimmy is just a genius trying to act normal, but gets overzealous with his genius, and messes things up sometimes. He fixes his mistakes at the end of the day though.
Why would you say Carl and Cindy are worse?
@@Surgemaster2012 I mean, Carl is an asshole who constantly belittles Jimmy and lies about shit, and is generally a shitty friend. Cindy isn't a bad character, I just like Jimmy more.
@@munromister777 Jimmy wasn't the best friend to Carl either.
@@Surgemaster2012 Jimmy was kind of socially unaware and arrogant sometimes, but he was never malicious to Carl, while Carl was malicious to Jimmy multiple times.
Tripping so hard rn
5:00 Well, I nearly shit myself looking at that.
Damn this new format is epic mate, talk show host would be jealous.
This is a great video!!
Jimmy doesn't hate Cindy because she a girl, he hates her because she always mean to him, constantly putting him down, making fun of his intelligence, and always making backhand comments at him. Jimmy is mean specifically towards her, cuz she mean to him all the time.
I KNEW MEATCANYON WAS JIMMY'S VA! Jimmy neutron into the MeatVerse
Good Video.
I saw that Tails Drawing you sick bastard.
I love the effort you put into the lip sync in Jimmyâs mouth
Easily my favorite video on this channel
Same
If im being honest that was one of the best videos you've made
Agnes from Despicable Me is an absolutely likeable character and you also got Leni Loud who is loveable.
Keep up the amazing videos Mark đ
Jimmy may not have been my most favorite character from his own series but was never seen as unlikable.
He was a pretty damn Decent Child Protagonist to be perfectly honest, I would consider Modern Timmy Turner to be completely Unlikable in a sense.
Which is why Jimmy Neutron ended while it was still great so that its reputation wouldnât have been tarnished beyond repair like Fairly OddParents to the point that it becomes less bearable to watch.
When I was seven, I sat on a banana...
This was really well done! I wish I could pat you on the back about how good this is but uhhhhhhh
This was worth the wait.
imagine Johnny Quasar just walked in midway in the show
@LS Mark
Iâm trying to learn how to animate characters. 1) How did you find the model of Jimmy Neutron?
2) Can you please tell me how you were able to make Jimmy move?
Basically, howâd you animate Jimmy?
Thanks so much for the video!!
It's amazing how much a voice actor's voice could change (I haven't even started looking at voice actors until 2020 lol)
The anonymous caller was hilarious
omg jimmys voice makes me wheeze
