A new Official Homestuck Animated Pilot has been announced, being animated by Spindlehorse's sister studio Spindleroo staring Toby Fox as John Egbert.

Well, I guess this could tell me something about where the power lies and what Skye Henwood is like as a writer. She's doing an AMA video and collecting questions for it on instagram right now.

@mobiancruxtruder any idea where this Q&A video will be posted? I'm not familiar with the Hellaverse people's youtube channels and socials. Hopefully not on twitter. 😭 otherwise someone plz rip it and upload it to youtube and tumblr lol
"Comment on this post for a chance to have your question ANWSERED in an upcoming video"
At this point it has to be intentional right? If they make misspelling things a running gag that would be pretty funny.
People in the comments asking about getting post-canon adapted into an indie cartoon when we don't even have a greenlight for a season 1 yet. I aspire to have that level of confidence. 😭🔥 lmao

Q&A over on youtube as well!
It's hilarious just how many of those comments amount to "what is a pilot episode" and "are the people you said are involved going to be involved"

"can you tell us ahead of time what the plot will be"
>eats somewhere other than olive garden once
>fucking dies
The comments have shown me just how many people didn't watch the trailer and just want answers to stuff we already know. 😩
Please stop looking at youtube chat, it's a cognitohazard

Manifesting a full show production using a poorly edited fake thumbnail I made using the Sarcastic Chorus Ragatha video as a base. Inspired by @gnarly-websurfer on tumblr posting this fake Film Theory thumbnail. lol
I perceive cause for concern. As of late, most of the Youtube videos talking about the Homestuck pilot seem to have a general air of wariness and pessimism that the whole project is likely to fail, and I fear this kind of priming will have a negative impact on how well the pilot actually does when it does come out.
Speaking of, it is now September. The wait begins.
And will we let the fire go out?
Is this the end for them now?
Sunken ship that has long gone down
Will we let the fire go.. out?

September nothing but good things await. Homestuck has always had a negative reaction, but negativity will always be so much louder than the positive stuff. And for what its worth, those negative spaces have also shifted to being more positive now because new fans joined and read Homestuck and liked the comic!
Negativity is such a bitch. I'm not saying we need to be positive all the time, but that doesn't mean we have to be negative all the time. Sometimes you just gotta avoid the pessimism.
*points fingers at r/homestuck*
Anyway, I hope the pilot goes well and the haters are proven wrong.
Don't ask why Geno hates Jade Harley.
I'm already planning on making a controversial pilot video called "Karkat was Justified?" or something like that and am pre-planning a thumbnail for it. I think it would be a fun challenge to try and defend Karkat based on only the pilot, without spoiling the entire plot. lol I think that's more fun than whatever doomer bullshit people are spewing and maybe a piece about how I'm not worried about it being unable to be adapted.
As a long-time fan of Homestuck and Vivziepop, I'm so happy that I'm doubting reality XD
Why hate when we can love and play video games with each other?<3<3<3<3
