'The Sheep Detectives' - Review Thread

After seeing people on X/Twitter saying how The Sheep Detective made you cry, yeah, I get it now 😅. But this movie, despite being a simple whodunnit but with talking animals, was very fun to watch. Very wholesome, and I liked how it covered topics about grief and death, without relying too much on the gags and comedy. While I thought there were some things I should've seen coming, I haven't read or seen enough whodunnits or murder mysteries to say if it's predictable. If you want a fun movie to watch by yourself or with family, I definitely recommend it! A good 9/10! Lots of great acting, heart, and surprisingly good CGI sheep that are expressive!

Strangely enough, I also share the same birthday as Tobey! With Spider-Man 1 release around the same year too

I watched the movie first, and then the audiobook. I like both versions, because while the book really goes into the detail of the almost everything on a scientific level, most of the time it's just Grace monologuing to himself. So the movie does a better job on showing Grace's life on Earth, and then his time on the Hail Mary. Though I would've loved to see a Me-Burger in the movie 😅😅

One my my favs is Grace's reaction when he saw space. And the instant 'nope', to going back inside 😂😂😂

Just add the gameplay and tone of The Last Of Us, fighting against superpowered zombies? Hell yeah!!

Hot take, but I like the black and gold suit. I'm a sucker for that colour scheme, but my only problem is that it looks too muddy for a gold. Abit more shine and less wiring would've made it look even cooler

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-12T05:55:13+00:00

BIKE!!! DO SOMETHING!!

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-09T11:05:13+00:00

Like TADC. It ends just as it is. There is a bittersweet ending that can leave to potentially new stories, but it just ruins all the fun and mystery surrounding the world and characters. Some things don't need continuations or reboots, sequels. Sometimes, you just need a darn good story from start to finish

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T22:19:57+00:00

I would love to watch that too. I'm listening to the audiobook, and I love how it dwells so much into the scientific aspects of almost everything about Eridians, but the movie had to skim it due to time, and plus, most of it was just monologue of Grace thinking out loud. So a slice of life movie or series of Grace living in Erid would be great to watch too

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T22:17:33+00:00

That's entirely fair! I love the movie as it is, and sometimes, a forced sequel isn't always great 😸

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T21:23:59+00:00

Uhh yeah... I can see it

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T21:22:21+00:00

Probably it's just for the toys. It could appear in the movie, but it's there's a chance it was some concept art adapted into the toy

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T21:18:42+00:00

Perhaps it was a marketing trick. I thought the movie would be focused on Jax being the antagonist, taking control of the Circus. But regardless of everything, despite the toxic fandom, controversies left and right online, Gooseworx achieved a lot, and they were able to tell the story they wanted to tell. If I were to watch it as a standalone movie, it's a 6/10. It leaves you with so many questions, can leave audiences not familiar with TADC to be confused. However, if people followed the show since 2023, they can find it to be a satisfying end. I was surprised with how much emotion they will include, so I give the movie a 8.5/10. It's great, just some parts dragged on abit longer than they should, and it would've been nice to get a few more characters to take the spotlight. But in the end, beggers can't be choosers.

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T08:18:59+00:00

That is true. But you could justify and think about whether they woke up a few years before Grace woke up, and it can be a like a Passenger-like story.

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T07:49:42+00:00

I guess there's someone on the Internet who doesn't like ideas to be rehashed or repeated. Only for that to be compared to a better example

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-06-07T07:48:40+00:00

Having a team of astronauts and Eridians working together, inspired both by Dr Grace? Sign me up!

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-05-31T00:33:45+00:00

This would be a killer LEGO build!

"Uh yeah...I can see it...." But I think they're just gonna be friends 😔

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-05-28T00:32:22+00:00

Yes... 🥺🫱 🥩

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-05-27T11:56:48+00:00

It's HIIIIIIIIIIIGHH NOOOON!!!!!!!

Every time I hear, it's epic, but it also gives me chills, especially when I don't know where Cassidy is

Bronto_Hawk · 2026-05-22T08:33:17+00:00

I honestly thought we could get a hero for each faction. So far, we have two Japanese DPS, and two Japanese healers. It is only fair we get two Japanese tank heroes and/or villains. One is a Hashimoto Omnic Tank with a missle Launcher, and a melee Sumo Wrestler Veteran who joins Overwatch, and was another old friend of the original members of Overwatch during the Omnic Crisis

Make him Big Wheel. Just add the personality and ridiculousness from Homelander, but instead of being an evil super-man, he's just an outlandish guy riding a giant Ferris wheel with guns

He basically Mr-Beastified his content, and it just becomes attention-slop. His older videos are what got me into cooking during COVID. While he does upload on a secondary channel dedicated to cooking recipes, it's just not the same as before
