Weatherstar4000video: The Movie

Weatherstar4000video: The Movie (also known as Weatherstar: The Movie and stylized as Weatherstar4000video The Movie) is a video/movie made by JoJuan Johnson and published 19th July, 2019. As of May 2023, it has 650+ likes and around 50 dislikes. Despite this reception (mostly from his/Weatherstar's fanbase), there are many factors and mistakes which makes this a bad movie.

Caution: Full movie spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it, and please don't attack anyone mentioned (including Weatherstar or JoJuan).

This page was originally on the Horrible Vyonders Wiki before it was shut down due to it violating Miraheze's terms of service. This is a recreation of that page (original has been deleted and is lost to time).

Why This Movie is VERY Trashy

 * 1) Let's just get this out the way first: Weatherstar is a controversial GoAnimator who didn't really deserve this movie in the first place, mainly due to his immature behavior from 2014 - 2022, his senseless grounding videos that people keep mooching off of, and the fact that he plagiarised hundreds of videos, but by the time the community had noticed some of these flaws, it was already too late. In other words, it's undeserved due to popularity covering up flaws and mishaps, which is very biased.
 * 2) The thumbnail of the movie looks lazily made. Just a viewing of the protagonists and the movie's name in text. Most Vyond movies would have a logo to go with it (this doesn't). Granted, there is some detail at the bottom to replicate a movie theater poster, but that's about it. The old Go!Animate logo can be found in the bottom-left corner, and Weather is bigger than the rest of the crew, for whatever reason.
 * 3) *This movie appears to have been rushed, like the thumbnail. The creator admits that the film had barely any effort put into it, judging by this community post.
 * 4) The creator made several single-scene videos on his channel saying how many days/weeks until this movie comes out, which is rather pointless and unnecessary as he could've condensed them to 1 or 2 community posts notifying when the movie will start (such as a week, and 48 hours from the intended release date). Some of them related to this are pointless videos, such as the looks for the movie's premiere, a crew for it and a poster, which could've been in another community post.
 * 5) *1 month left
 * 6) *1 week left
 * 7) *5 days left
 * 8) *4 days left
 * 9) *3 days left
 * 10) *2 days left
 * 11) *1 day left
 * 12) *The movie starts today
 * 13) *Poster
 * 14) *Crew
 * 15) The plot and writing was written poorly, as it's quite generic and really predictable. The antagonists of it had no reason to kidnap Scarlet (Weather's girlfriend) other than to cause trouble just like most grounding videos. There are times where the characters inexplicably find the solution to a trial and execute it solely because the creator demanded it with no logic or thought-process involved.
 * 16) The lack of emotions in the movie makes it very boring to watch. Not to mention, they tend to go on and on about one topic until an "ex-machina" occurs. Weather is a couple with Scarlet in the movie, so you'd think that he'd hugged or kissed her or anything when she was rescued at one point, right? Nope. Not until the wedding scene...
 * 17) The use of Vyond logic is notorious for being an excuse for characters to perform otherwise impossible stunts (usually), and here, it's no exception. This logic is used frequently and it's a very bad attempt at pushing the storyline further.
 * 18) Weather's Mario Enemy Character Elimination simply didn't need to be mentioned in the movie at all. The elimination is worse than BFGAI, BFAM and BFAR combined, and is a disgrace to all other character eliminations and object shows around. It's so bad that it has its own page on this wiki here.
 * 19) Despite the movie claiming to be PG, there is a censored swear word right at the beginning, the movie is interrupted to state this, and it lasts longer than necessary.
 * 20) There are several glitches in the movie, and the creator was aware of them but had tried to make everyone dismiss them because the description literally states: "In case some mistakes/errors/glitiches [sic] are in the film, please ignore them". Some glitches cannot be ignored due to how blatantly obvious they are and how they could've been easily fixed:
 * 21) *The Vyond logo in the bottom-left corner existing throughout the entire movie, sometimes changing size at points.
 * 22) *The censor sound effect stopping briefly and looping poorly at 2:33 onwards, along with glass smashing sounds being played when there are no signs of glass being broken at all. If you listen closely, then you can hear the sound playing before the swear word kicks in.
 * 23) *The robotic voice clip bug, along with some voice clips ending on the last available word instead of breaking the sentences of a character properly.
 * 24) *The music tracks abruptly stopping instead of fading out gradually.
 * 25) *Characters standing in mid-air when they're placed in an organised pack. This is hard to notice at first, but it's a beginner mistake.
 * 26) *The part where white bars appear on the top/bottom of the screen during this scene.
 * 27) *Both of Boshi's eggs moving very slowly. So slowly that a human with average reaction time could get away from them.
 * 28) *One of the eggs sticking to Boshi before exploding.
 * 29) *Boshi not being blown away when his own egg explodes, instead falling over as if he had lost consciousness.
 * 30) *Scarlet's reaction changing before she's told to clean the kitchen as her "break" at 19:52.
 * 31) *A Boo laughing sound effect replaying only to be immediately cut off at 20:34. In the same scene, being unable to hear any of the voice clips because the music is a tad too loud.
 * 32) *The torch's beam of light being improperly placed at 21:22.
 * 33) *The Triforce being a Vyond prop instead of an image from the Internet at 22:43, and it looks like a giant Dorito chip instead of three small triangles.
 * 34) *The bomb not being handled properly at 23:20 (doesn't appear until Weather's crew member stops moving) and said bomb sticking to Ganondorf for around 2 seconds before blowing up. No animations for throwing either of them, as that member just stands there, shocked.
 * 35) *The lip-syncing not working at 24:29 and 38:32. How does one miss this error?
 * 36) *The sound effects not being in sync at 26:30 onwards, along with the repeated punch sound being way too loud.
 * 37) *No jump animation at 29:45.
 * 38) *The airship's movement at 32:20 onwards should've made practically everyone, especially Scarlet, fly off the ship, instead of just Weather.
 * 39) *Early reaction error at 44:29 with Dark Bowser's parents.
 * 40) *Broken/nonexistent climbing animation at 45:15.
 * 41) *How is Weather able to unscrew a panel from a timer if he can't reach the corners of it?
 * 42) *The (pointless) text box "I only used their English voices because I didn't really know their Internation crying voices. Sorry Weather!" being slightly cut off. Also, there's a typo in it. :/
 * 43) A lack of detail with the props is present in the movie. The airship that was used doesn't even have propellers and some of the backdrops reuse the same building props all across the background, because they're taken raw from Vyond's library; no modifications.
 * 44) *The Game Transporter 5000 doesn't even get properly used; no effects, no sounds, nothing. It just cuts.
 * 45) There are a few Stick Figure characters, which aren't compatible with Vyond Studio. This means that the creator could've used Requestly to use the other old themes, such as Comedy World, Lil' Peepz, etc. They would've been better for the movie even if characters from these themes aren't used.
 * 46) Several parts of the video max out the volume for a voice clip when it would've been better making them 300% volume or using a different voice.
 * 47) The antagonists are defeated by getting grounded, which is something that's quite cliché and overused by the GA community and grounding videos.
 * 48) When the antagonists are crying from being defeated, there is a meaningless text box (as stated above) which explains that the creator couldn't find the international voices for them, and he spelt "international" wrong in the process. Even though this is good because using these voices makes the scenes cornier, the description should've been used to state that without spoiling the movie.
 * Or, their regular voices could've been used where the characters were crying or screaming, thus removing the point of the text box completely. #RegularCryingVoicesMatter
 * 1) Despite being made without the use of prop characters, the Mario characters don't look like anything like themselves. As examples, the Boo looks like a regular ghost from Vyond and Boshi looks like a human without a tail. Dark Bowser should've been colored entirely blue (Dark Koopa was), but even something like that wasn't achieved.
 * 2) Missed opportunity: Some of the characters could've used their abilities from the Mario games instead of using Vyond logic. Boshi could've had other abilities instead of just being swatted aside with only explosive eggs as his only offensive move; being defeated as quickly as he came into the movie.
 * 3) As stated above, the sounds can be so loud at times that it can be hard to hear what people are saying. A major example is when "Master Hand" (which is just a Vyond hand prop) attempts to punch the force field repeatedly.
 * 4) Around ⅕ of the entire movie is padding or filler, usually caused by Violy and her supporters, who has no purpose being in the movie at all other than to satisfy the haters of her. Here are the notable scenes that pad out the movie's length to make it almost an hour.
 * 5) *[8:09 - 9:16 ]: Violy and one of her supporters ends up eating the cake before it's cut, causing them to be kicked out in a cliché way. Weather and Scarlet should've put the cake in a location where no-one would think to look, and even then, they could've tried to improvise; they could've used something like cupcakes instead.
 * 6) *[34:30 - 36:43 ]: Violy messes up the fake ending where Weather's trapped in a dark pit, which also breaks the 4th wall in such a pathetic way.
 * 7) *[47:59 - 53:03 ]: The wedding scene, where Weatherstar and Scarlet get married. They do the entire wedding procedure in such a lazy and lengthened manner, even going as far as bringing up Violy several times over just to add a few more seconds. MANY glitches and layering errors occur here as well. Violy's reaction to the marriage at 52:17 is very ironic, coming from a movie that was rushed and made after an overrated GoAnimator.
 * 8) Just like how Canadian Scout (Kaneedian/Kann) criticised Weatherstar, he criticised this movie as well. Click here to see his comment.
 * 9) And finally, no bad movie is complete without a long list of plot holes that make basically zero sense.
 * 10) *If the point of this movie was to marry Scarlet, why didn't Weather do that before this "movie" took place (if it was possible)?
 * 11) *Why was Dark Bowser (the character that's supposed to look like him) playing something in the middle of the night, and what was he playing?
 * 12) *At 18:05, Weather and his crew could've easily ran away from the explosive egg instead of having Steven activate Vyond logic. Alternatively, the force field could've been activated right away for a quick Boshi kill.
 * 13) *Where did the crew get the books and battery to kill the "Boo", and why would a book kill a ghost-like enemy when they're ethereal and can't be damaged by physical objects?
 * 14) *How can the Triforce hatch when it's not even an egg? Shouldn't it glow and flash?
 * 15) *How come two bombs couldn't defeat Ganondorf, but Vyond logic and a big bomb could?
 * 16) *How is Master Hand weak to glass, and why didn't he explode when he was defeated? He does in Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64, sooo... (plus, that wasn't a hard boss as all that Weather and his crew had to do was hold a force field up until he collapsed)
 * 17) *At 29:15, the laser is positioned in a way that makes it possible for both Weather and Scarlet to crawl under. Instead of doing that, Weather had the suggestion to hop over it, which would be impractical as it's too high off the ground. Surprise; he tried doing that anyway, and his illogical strategy caused the alarm to go off. The Vyond logic usage doesn't help, or make any sense, especially when trying to teleport out.
 * 18) *Vyond logic being used again to activate a timer at 43:48. Don't need to explain this one.
 * 19) *If Weather kept using Vyond logic for everything, then couldn't he have used that to fly or teleport to Scarlet as soon as she was kidnapped? That could've stopped the movie from existing, which would've been infinitely better for us! He could've used that as soon as he fell into the dark pit, too, which could've stopped the fake ending from occurring, along with people in the comments saying, "ooh, you got me there", likely blindly.
 * 20) Due to the many controversial decisions of the community (some of which are through no fault of this movie alone), Steven and Scarlet's role in the movie hasn't aged well. Steven was claimed to be a pedophile for dating someone 4+ years younger than him while being over the age of consent in his state (the minor wasn't over the age of consent), and Scarlet had broke up with Weatherstar due to him being controversial and a plagiarist.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) With a movie like this, you'd expect prop characters and exclamation marks to be used. Somehow, this doesn't happen (which is good).
 * 2) The music choice is quite decent, despite the abrupt cut-off.
 * 3) The grounding of the antagonists was... surprisingly quiet. But that's the only good thing about the way that they were defeated.
 * 4) The creator was at least honest that he didn't put much effort into this movie, and he understood Kaneedian's critique.
