I love how it's subtly implied that Launchpad did not see the giant rainbow up into the point that Scrooge pointed it out, and if he HAD noticed it, he probably would have flew into it of his own accord.
I love any time where Launchpad gets to show that he's oddly knowledgeable about specific things. He may not be a well read, brilliant pilot, but he knows everything there is about Wrestling and Darkwing Duck. And it's always nice to see Huey having to deal with his analytical side giving him knowledge but no experience. Pairing them up together made this episode really shine.
I believe he actually landed the plane in this episode
If you go back to last year's Christmas episode there is a quick throw away line from Scrooge to Dewey that foreshadows this episode.
Hmm?
That One Sentient Bagel watch this clip czcams.com/video/ujuQBszVaWY/video.html it is around 22 seconds in.
Yeah I remember that line when Scrooge tells Dewey that he has so many responsibilities
@@79silentg which is awesome
Yeah when I saw yormangander in this episode I was like this all makes sense
As a triplet myself, it’s sibling dynamics like this episode that make this Ducktales one of my favorite cartoons ever
The Lady Haymaker and the Duchess of Whaling is an epic shout out to "Wander Over Yonder"!
Gaaah! Never noticed it in context. So obviously!
Neat, I just thought it was a clever line
I thought that it was a nod to Sylvia
I knew it
By heal standards, Dewey was doing AMAZING so I was surprised that was never brought up. Boos are a heal's cheers and if they actually hated him, they wpuld have remained mostly silent as they did to Huey.
How can you NOT mention that Beakley Viking wrestling costume was a reference from the Viking opera/ theater attire she wore in one episode (I have no idea which episodes but I clearly remember that scene) from the 80's cartoon???
The episode you are thinking of is "Maid of the Myth"
I felt bad leaving that out, but I only had so much time! I try to focus on one core idea in a video without getting distracted by everything one could talk about.
Otherwise these things would be like an hour long and I'd never get them finished!
@@seaniccus you did good in this review im gonna try reviewing the tinkering tomorrow after i watch it a few more times
I just really love picturing this phone call...”I need you to grab a costume and get to Valhalla as soon as possible.”
This isn’t even in the top ten of the weirdest phone calls Beakley’s gotten from Scrooge.
@@seaniccus understandable 😅
And the moment where the crowd turn on Jormungandr for beating up Dewey, a child, was the turning point of the episode and ends with an 80's style song.
He's here.
He's back.
He never slacks.
He's Seaniccus!
I would love if Gosalyn was the one kid who is Darkwing Duck fan when everyone else is a Gizmoduck fan.
I can't wait for the Darkwing Duck special episode which Seaniccus will likely follow up with a review and a rebooting Gosalyn Mallard video like he did for Flintheart Glomgold and Darkwing Duck
Oh
Having gosalyn rebooted would be cool
@@matthewtapia1669 it will be
I like how they continue the theme of legacy by stablishing that Scrooge is going to leave behind a lot of important responsabilities for the kids to handle, and they're not sure if they can live up to that legend.
Although this wasn't a character episode, I like the way it's handled the boys for the most part, particularly how it shows Louie's character development as he shows a much more considerate and honest attitude than in the previous seasons while still being every bit the greedy triplet. And I think they're building up Huey's development bit by bit. Here he shows that he's not good at improvising due to his literal by-the-book persona and seeing him struggle to light up was very nice.
What do you think the vultures would do of they found out that Scrooge and Co are keeping the world from being destroyed, seeing how the reason they targeted the Duck family was because their last adventure almost cost the world?
Who knows? They are the Fiendish Organization for World Larceny, so they might just wait till Scrooge is defending the world to try stealing stuff.
I disagree with this episode not tying into the larger story. One of the main themes this season is legacy and this episode shows how seriously Scrooge takes his and how it affects the kids. They're worried about not living up to the bar Scrooge has set and I feel like that is going to come back in future episodes.
I can't believe Loki's children (Hel, Fenrir and Jörmungandr) all appeared in this episode but not Loki himself!
I have to say as someone who actually watched wrestling this episode was pretty funny
when in doubt “be Launchpad”
Think like LP, but act like DW
I want to bring up that Scrooge foreshadowed this episode in the Christmas episode.
Yes here czcams.com/video/ujuQBszVaWY/video.html
I would like to see the 3 triplets go against the board of directors
This was a great Dewey episode
Fun is always enough, everything else is gravy. I would love to see more Darkwing and Negaduck by the end of the season.
Negaduck will not be followed up this season according to the creators
I love the low-angle shots of Jormungandr's true form, since it emphasizes the character's gargantuan size. Seeing Launchpad's passion for wrestling and Huey's struggle with understanding it was also a major treat, which was a nice contrast from their respective narrations from the golfing episode.
'we're not gonna see a big character change in this episode.'
dewey: am i a joke to you?
My favorite gag was probably the first kinda throw-away one in the start that Scrooge is hedging his bets on the kids because he knows that Donald and Della is utterly unable to corroborate on a jigsaw puzzle, much less anything of relevance
OR
Scrooge is actually the biggest villain of the series and this is our first strong hint at that
Don't think so but it a cool idea.
Uncle Scrooge = Ted DiBiase
Bingo!
The Million Dollar Man of the old WWF (now WWE).
1:05 wait, I know this myth. The giant snake is one of Loki's kids.
Also the Fenris-wolf is one of Loki's kids.
The third child of Loki is Hel, which was renamed to Hecka in this episode, because Disney doesn't like the word hell (of which she is the etymological origin).
EquinoxOmega yup, I think they even took that from Maleficent. Does she still say “And now prince, you will face me and all the powers of Hell!”
@@equinoxomega3600 Even though "Hel" is actually just another word for "death" in old Norse and has nothing to do with damnation?
@@vetarlittorf1807 yes, but the modern English word hell is derived from Hel(a), which in just referred to the place of the dead and its ruler.
@@equinoxomega3600 It still feels stupid to censor the word "hell" especially since Disney uses it all the time in their movies. Heck, there's even a villain song called Hellfire.
I love how the outfit Dewey goes for is exactly what you would expect from his high school fantasy dreams, with a varsity jacket, shades, and a Greco-Roman singlet.
U know, that makes me wonder why Jormundanrr never appeared in any of the Thor films
In the thor comics, he's known as the Midgard serpent
chum ... he *still* didn’t appear
@@antonissa8345 Ya, it would have been cool to see him though
chum yeah, in the old north myths, Hella, Fenrir and The Serpent are actually SIBLINGS
They like to tease it in the comics and then there was the Fear arc and really, I think they just haven't figure it out yet how to do it in the movies
I wish they had time to squeeze Donald into this episode. There are so many classic gags you can do with Donald in a wrestling setting. He too like Scrooge would relish playing the heel, but unlike Scrooge he’d be the “jobber” - you know he’d be beaten up again and again and again.
Honestly that’s my only gripe on this season so far. The only Donald centric episode was the daisy episode. I want to see more Donald and Della interaction. I want to see how Della reacts when she finds out Donald and Scrooge were estranged for 7 years BECAUSE OF HER. I want to see a Donald Scrooge and Della adventure without the kids.
Donald, Della and Scrooge episode is begging to be structured like the Agent 42 flashback episode, the one that introduced Gummy Beary juice. It would be epic.
Wasn't Quack Pack also focused on Donald too? And keep in mind he did get a supporting and decent role in Challenge of the Senior Junior Woodchucks, Lost Harp of Mervana, and Trickening.
Good point
@@aertnadle2466 yep
But wouldn't Donald lose his temper too easily to stay in character? He usually louses stuff up, don't forget.
5:41 I forgot that Scrooge did a Shooting Star Press in this.
Is... that what that's called?!
See? I have no idea -- but that's rad! I bet there were a ton of Pro Wrestling references I didn't even get.
We need to get SuperEyepatchWolf to review this episode.
Between Scrooge's Shooting Star Press, Dewey's Piledriver, all of the various run-ins and interferences, and even the announcing...I'd say it definitely had the feel of something certainly in the realm of pro wrestling, and an amazing homage to some of the crazy things you see in it.
@@SlvrStryker I mean: Hecka does The Rise.
I want to see an epic finale of FOWL vs all of which we’ll be seeing and have seen from Disney’s history and of course any more Disney Afternoon characters who have and have yet to appear in this season. Especially the Darkwing Duck characters.
I'm with Scrooge on this one, Della and Donald probably missed out on the last fight due to what happened with the spear of Selene. It shows Scrooge is glad to have them back in his life but he's better off leaving some things to the "younger generation".
I love how in the episode Last Christmas!, Scrooge lists off some of his responsibilities and says, “defending the world from Jörmungansr...” and over a season later we get to see it. He wasn’t kidding. :)
Mr. Burns would love this place. You know, the High To Be Loathed song ?
I felt this was an ok episode but with a huge missed opportunity. In the first season we see the triplets unite together to stand against the dog of Dismal Downs, and when Dewey asks Huey if they are good enough to take over for scrooge, it should have resulted in the 3 of them uniting to prove together they can replace scrooge one day. That would have been a much better result as it would reestablish that together they are ones to take over one day.
That feels like a big story development to me though. Like, maybe that's something we see in a season finale? It would be epic for sure, and is definitely something we should see sometime in the series.
Hey, this episode made a refrence to Wander over Yonder! Webby calls her fists "Lady Haymaker and the Dutchess of Wailing", which is what Sylvia called her fists.
As much as I loved this episode, it felt unfair that none of the other Norse Gods or figures of myth were mentioned in it.
It would've made so much more sense, if it was Loki calling the shots for Rumble for Ragnarok. Plus, he and Louie could cause some serious mischief together; heck...they should've brought in Thor or Odin.
Even this version of Valhalla felt like a pale comparison to other depictions I've seen. Sure, fallen warriors can playfully brawl there. But where's the merry-making, the Valkyries...the bloody mead
I don’t know how true this is or if it may even make sense but it might have something to do with the fact that because of marvel Thor and Loki have become very mainstream and people kind of have a way they want them to be and act so if they made them to goofy there would have been a lot of unnecessary backlash so I feel like they thought it would be best to use unnamed gods
To quote from Leverage: Sometimes bad guys make the best good guys.
I probably will enjoy it. And I’m still learning some of the lingo.
This episode got me back to watching wrestling after a 15 or so year hiatus, I love this show so much.
i like how this ep was referenced back in the Christmas episode
The miser is actually a real character from pro wrestling’s past . Thought Scrooge’s version seems to also incorporate elements from the wrestler I.R.S . The original miser is linked to the pro wrestler Randy savage as it was his fathers original wrestling gimmick .
Was waiting for a review on it, worth the wait for sure!
You know, when Scrooge talked about facing off against the World-eating Serpent in Last Christmas, I expected to see something as big and epic as Thor: Ragnarok. Not, WWE wrestling. Surprisingly, that's not as epic as Norse mythology makes it out to be.
I mean it’s still epic
Sound like my Fanfiction.
I have to play both rolls the Hero and the Villain.
My sister has described wrestling as “a soap opera where people get to punch each other.” and I think that gets at the appeal of wrestling better than any other description I’ve heard.
Finally done with season 3a
Ok but can we talk about how Launchpad's wrestling name was genuinely perfect?
Smart Launchpad lives - he landed the plane
Oh man. I didn't even realize this.
The final part of the battle reminded me of the fight between Kinnikuman and Akuma Shogun because both finished with an unbelievable pile driver.
Also the Kinnikuman series is famous for having wrestling match to decide the future of the world.
"The people's champ" is a nickname of the Rock. When he first debuted in WWE, he came out as the smiling Rocky Maivia. He was supposed to be the face (good guy), but the more he tried to be liked, the more the fans turned on him. This is exactly what Dewey goes through in this episode. Both Rock and Dewey had to learn to roll with it, and while they handled things differently, both ended up becoming beloved by the crowds. One could argue that Scrooge's character also represents Rock when he was rising up in Hollywood. At one time, he returned to WWE playing as an entitled movie star heel (bad guy). He knew how to get the crowd to hate him. Another quick note: heels tend to not sell as much merchandise, which is why Louie focuses on catering to the faces.
Love the review! And I really wanna know about all those cool DT collectibles you have!!
Also I think Mrs Beakly's get up may be a call back to an episode of the original series
I just thougth... if they used Thor here, would they have hired Chris Hemsworth to voice him?
dang I need to watch the new episodes now...
The episode is fun overall. The Beakley/Webby tag team was great. Launchpad aka Captain Crash feels like he's had this in his back pocket for a while.
One point of improvement would have been Dewey. He should have been the Heel. Doing the right thing isn't always fun or popular. It's a good lesson to learn. Too bad he doesn't learn it.
I love that Hecka was their work around Hella. I'd like to thinknot was 50% BS&P and 50% brand protection from the MCU.
I really enjoy your enthusiasm for DuckTales!
44:32 sharper than the sharpies indeed.
Rewatching these reviews since the series ended and I just realized "Lady Haymaker and The Dutchess of Wailing" is a reference to Wander Over Yonder.
I love how Webby is like "rainbow and axes"!!!
REALLY looking forward to Gosalyn's introduction, and your own thoughts of that episode as well, when it airs. It's been the episode i've been hyped for since I found out Gosalyn would be in Season 3 😛
Can't wait to see your review of "The Trickening."
SO many horror references!
I remember one reactor complaining unironically that wrestling was fake and I'm like: THE UNDERTAKER IS A ZOMBIE!
Yeah, I didn't want to open that can of worms
@@seaniccus my point was more that real wrestling fans are well aware it's more performance than sport, and that is WHY they like it.
@@tyrant-den884 That totally makes sense, I just meant that I didn't want to get into that whole discussion of "what" wrestling is, since it's rather unique and not the most straightforward thing to explain.
@@seaniccus you were fine. The Launchpad explanation you showed was more than enough.
Really loved this episode.. That being said I am also a pretty diehard fan of Professional Wrestling. I think the writers did a fantastic job of blending the two worlds. Would have also loved to see Captain Crash take up the mantle of "the defender of Earth' ..lol.
This was a super fun episode when I watched it, and continued how Season 3 has been the best season yet. Like, I'm no big wrestling buff, either, but I am familiar enough with the themes and terminology to get a good time out of this. You get a slightly deeper dive into a throwaway joke of Dewey reacting to the studio audience from Quack Pack turning against them by losing strength and seeing how Dewey would normally react to that kind of disapproval. You see a little more of Huey's struggles with his self confidence and needing to be the best the season built up. And yet you also just get a bunch of fun jokes from shout outs to Wonder Over Yonder with Webby's names for her fists to Launchpad watching wrestling while flying and so much more.
It also is just a great pay off to another throwaway gag where Scrooge confessed to secretly keeping Jormungundr at bay. In a lot of shows, they wouldn't devote a whole episode to one easily ignored line meant as a quick gag to show how much responsibility Scrooge has to illustrate his want for a night to cut loose. And yet this show does that kind of stuff all the time, taking small, tiny gags and running with them. And really, that's one thing I love about this show, they have a really impressive attention to detail for Disney Duck canon as a whole as well as their own take on it, as shown by episodes like this.
Dang I’m early, but with nothing cool say.
Anyways, I’m looking forward to the new episode reviews. Stay awesome!
This is probably my least favourite episode. I think Scrooge acts very weird in this one. Why does he think his nephews are the best candidates to succeed him and fight an immortal snake for the destiny of earth? He knows both gods and superheroes, but wants to put his nephews in the ring in the future? I don’t even buy Scrooge as earths champion.
It’s fun, sure. But it doesn’t feel real, even in universe. It feels like Scrooge-fanfic written by Webby. I legit thought that might be the twist in there end.
I feel Luke it’s a keep it in the family thing. And he didn’t expect them to be doing it this soon. And he has a lot of faith in his family we’ve seen that through out the show. And I think Scrooge being the champion of earth is pretty much on brand but I can also see it being launchpad because of those vague adventures he would go on when the rest of the family is busy so this could be one of them. But I think Scrooge is on brand with the whole what the fuck element that Scrooge has going with like his friendship with the ghost of Christmas past,present and future and his beef with Santa clause. Sorry for rambling
Because people from Earth has to represent EARTH
Scrooge isn't being weird, he's exaggerating his negative traits to make his "heel" persona more believable. If you only knew Scrooge McDuck as a money obsessed jerk then you'd probably buy the image of "The Miser" too.
Great review, as always! :)
Some call the senses bureau oh.
Now my fav Huey line ever lol 😆
I'm so anxious about Halloween special 💜
Is this Island at the Top of the world?!?
The reason I don't like resealing is the pointless fighting but I do like this episode. I loved seeing Webby fighting.
Never cared for wresting myself (mostly because my grandfather loved it and took over the tv when I was little.) My brother loves it though so getting him to watch this as a bottle episode was fun.
Still enjoyed all the character moments despite disinterest in the main premise.
What i like about wrestling its like super heroes I was more of a super hero nerd as kid than wrestling though when I watched ultimate muscle and learned about analogs in most media like Final Fight , Ok Ko and Steven universe , and King and Tiger Mask. I just enjoy the references
Did this episode remind anyone else of Mortal Kombat?
A big send out to Webby's wrestling companions! Lady Haymaker and her cousin the duchess of Wailing!😊
As always...great job
great review
Might be awhile till seaniccus reviews the new ducktales reboot episodes
Dear Ducktales. Bite the bullet, pay the BBC for the IP involved in a crossover, and go full retro; do a Count Duckula crossover episode.
It's a good episode mr. Mcduck a wrestler now that's killer. 😀👍
If non sequiturs are your thing Seaniccus, I have one wrestling suggestion I think you might enjoy. Check out pretty much any AEW match with Orange Cassidy in it. He's got the popularity Dewey wishes he had, and the way he gets it is so unique that anything I said about him would probably be a spoiler. Orange Cassidy vs Pac would be my suggestion to watch.
This is my favorite episode, no kidding
The only thing I didn’t like about this episode was that Beakley and webby didn’t completely WRECK SHOP in the episode
Hey some shows are only as good as their fillers and quite honestly I enjoyed this for someone who used to watch wrestling this is a wonderful nostalgic episode for me
I love this episode
Let's Get Ready To Rumble
When is the next episode gonna come out
I'm a huge fan of cartoons and pro wrestling too
Does anyone else think modern pro wrestling is something that the real ancient Vikings would've loved? Fighting, boasting matches and the chance to make a big name for yourself all rolled into one!
What I don’t understand why Jormungandr just went to like a from someone fans like admire to a heel in the end.
It didn’t make sense to me.
Not a wrestling fan, but from I had been told, the Face tends to keep the righteous even at the end of a match. Jormungandr could have done with a finishing move and win but he kept dragging it, whoch is more of a heel attitude and the crowd was quick to pick up on it.
I'm pretty sure it was the whole "beating up a defenseless kid" thing. That sequence wasn't really in line with Jormungandir's characterization to that point in the episode, where he was quickly and cleanly removing his opponents. I suppose they had to come up with a way for Team Duck (and Dewey specifically) to legitimately win, given the stakes.
My headcanon is that Jormungandir didn't *really* want to end the world and start Ragnarok (at least at that time), so he deliberately turned the crowd against himself and gave Dewey the opening to defeat him.
Pooglian but like why though, why would they make him turn to a jerk and beating a kid.
But that last part you meantion kinda make sense for him to be a pretty nice guy not to start Rangnarok
@@WolfMoon351 really he was always acting like that. He was just contrasting with Millionaire Miser the whole time.
Tyrant-Den always like what?
A jerk or someone fans admires?
A tournament for the fate of the earth? Is it me or does that sound like the mortal kombat tournament?
I seriously don't hope (and don't think) that just 13 episodes will be the entire season 3. This season don't feel like it is nearing it's end. No it feels like nearing the half way point at best. Hue hasn't finished his arc at all and we have barely seen the FOWL in full force. No way is this ower.
Filler can be fun
Duckamania will run wild on you!

No outro music?
I haven't been using the exit card recently! Maybe I should go back to it?
@@seaniccus i always enjoy the theme music.
Also I often listen to you as opposed to watching you, it helps que me that your video is ending instead of buffering/loading
@@narri214 Huh, I never thought of it like that, but that makes sense
Hello
The next episode, the Phantom and the Sorceress, I have SOOOOOO many questions. Did they rewrite the Phantom Blot's origin? Why didn't he attack Magica when she was working at the arcade? Hoping you can clear up my confusion.
I was thinking the exact same thing because now the Phantom Blot being inside the Funzo mascot this whole time makes no sense at all.
Ok how do you not understand what a REBOOT is? You getting surprised by this is stupid and REALLY old 🤦♀️
