Are you a diehard SCU fan? Have no idea what that means, but you're a fan of Slimecicle, or just MCYT in general? You've heard the name of the Slimecicle Cinematic Universe thrown around for a while now and have been curious, but have no idea where to start? This is an event for anyone along that spectrum of SCU-ness!
Welcome to the SCU Winter Watchparty!
Or maybe book club? It's somewhere between the two, as this event will compile and curate a schedule for everyone to watch along on their own, with a video or few every week! And hopefully, by the end of it, a full tour of the SCU world. Those who know what the SCU is like may be raising their eyebrows, because yes- there is no set watch order or even viewing list for the SCU. And yet, I will be attempting to wrangle up a full picture of the SCU anyway, with communal input gathered through multiple stages of this event. The SCU is so fun because of the creative and communal interpretation allowed in it, and the hope is to facilitate that so even more people can get in on the fun! Here's how that'll look.
Phase 1 of this event involves VIDEO SUBMISSIONS, with a two week period for anyone who does know and love the SCU to tell me all about their own watching playlists. The form is designed to allow any and all elements to be submitted for the pool of media I will pull from in order to create the full SCU experience, so there is no limit- submit your most creative crackpick, that's part of the SCU experience!
Phase 2 of this event is THE WATCHPARTY, after all submissions have been pooled, and a watching list has been posted. The idea will be to provide a small selection of videos everyone can pick from to watch that week, with one primary recommendation every week. These primary recommendations will sketch the most common SCU timelines, but all submitted videos will also be included along the way! Everyone can watch as much or as little as they'd like, and any participation is encouraged and will be reblogged to this blog in order to create that watchparty environment! Liveblogs, analysis, fanart, and more, anything the watch inspires, can be tagged with #scuwatch and will be reblogged here over the course of this phase (estimated to last roughly two months).
And in an epilogue phase, there will be no official posts from this blog, but will be a two week span dedicated to SCU partying, where this blog will continue to reblog any final liveblogs, analysis, and fanart.
The exact dates for these three phases can be found here! Over the next two or three months, SCU Winter Watchparty will be here to help spice up these dreary winter months.
@scu-watchparty thanks for hosting a binge of the slimecicle cinematic universe! I feel like I posted more about the smp extra stuff than the actual scu but it's all fun stuff :))
I went into this trying to figure out a timeline that I'd want to follow but I still don't know for the earlier events lol
But I mean I feel like I filled out more headcanons for everything so. yeah. idk about anyone else but I headcanon the whole thing to be a reincarnation loop that Charlie puts himself through. idk maybe because of a deal with schlatt, maybe he himself is avoiding the pressures and loneliness of godhood, who knows. anyway.
I do want to go back and binge the qsmp stuff because I didn't have time for the vods that week. and I'm very much missing out on some of that Lore. Might use the #scuwatch tag for it for blog organization reasons, even if it's a month from now :p
One last thank you to @scu-watchparty because it was super fun to have an excuse to indulge in my slimecicle obsession. o7 and idk maybe we'll get more scu eventually and have an excuse to binge everything all over again, who knows
This is a very late response, some real life busyness got in the way of the clean close the mods wanted for this event, but thank you for these kind words! It's fantastic to hear that this was a fun event for you, and we hope that everyone who followed along in any capacity had an enjoyable watch!
This blog may run more watchparties or other SCU events in the future, so feel free to stay tuned for that! But for now, thank you scublr, and we hope you are safe from apple-bearing goats as you journey onward <3
so. that's certainly a video that exists. hm. not sure how it's supposed to connect to the scu other than charlie being in it for 2 seconds but ok I guess.
Another thing about the SCU that I love is that we all side with Charlie [character], and a lot of people seem to forget that he's just as chaotic and morally questionable as the rest of them
ok hardest difficulty is an SCU classic so we all know what happened there. BUT aside from the Grizzly lore, my favorite thing the video offers is the mobs. Like Bizly kinda just gets away from being the main reason there was difficulty/drama in the first place due to the chaos of the mobs lmao.
Apologies for the delay, this week is now taking place one week later- but welcome to the seventh and final week of the watchparty! As always, below is one focus video for the week, as well as an extra bonus or two, with links!
We Spent 100 Days in a Hardcore Minecraft Apocalypse
Slimecicle Dream SMP videos
Any posts tagged with #scuwatch, whether it be fanart, analysis, or shitposts inspired by watching, will be reblogged to this blog (which we will be doing shortly as catch-up from the delay). Happy watching!
oh wait I never gave an update on the qsmp vid. ok so here's the takeaway I guess:
it's just as chaotic as I thought it'd be. Felipe Minecraft real? (honestly found that wayyyy too funny). El Blackflipo *nods*. but since it's just the start of the server the stuff I know the qsmp for isn't really brought up. like the eggs and other lore stuff.
honestly the main thing is WHY DIDN'T CHARLIE MAKE MORE VIDEOS ABOUT THE QSMP WHYYYYYY
like I know there's the vods for stuff but if there's any fanmade edited vids for funny moments and/or lore bits pleeease let me know because I'm kinda getting invested in the qsmp I understand why people like to add it to the scu and I Need More
