Captain Spectacular's Final Stand

I like to think of things that make me smile, then bundle up those smiles into silly, semi-violent, cartoon-shaped packages, and then give them to people over the internet! SMILES FOR ALL!!!

Captain Spectacular's Final Stand

Posted by WhiteLightning - March 28th, 2011

Hello Newgrounds people! I've been gone a while, so I wanted to update you on what's happening in the next few weeks.

First off, I'm finally starting to animate my new cartoon, "Captain Spectacular's Final Stand," so that should released in probably about two weeks. I think it'll be a great cartoon, and it even features Jazza as the ship's first mate (is that what you call it for a space ship?)! I will also be releasing a new live-action short series on Youtube titled "Philosophies of a Cool Guy."

The biggest project is actually the changing of my internet name. I selected White Lightning in sixth grade when I didn't know any better. I now am constantly reminded that it is one of the most unoriginal names you could have, and so I'm setting off to change it to something more memorable before I get too far down the road (since most of you only starting knowing I existed last August.) Any opinions on this are encouraged.

In the meantime, please enjoy White Noise Episode 5: New and Improved (direct download), as well as this conceptual trailer for a live-action feature film that I've pitched to an investor.

Have a snifty day,
-Kyle Sullivan

Omg, you got jazza to be in your flash? O Em effing jee.

In seriousness I understand your name changing desire, I picked mine when I was 11 and as it turns out became a business name... If only I could go back in time and kick my pre pubescent self in the undecended testicles.

WhiteLightning 2011-03-29 06:52:33 (Updated 2011-03-29 10:36:30)

Well, I think yours still turned out alright :) At least it's a little more recognizable. But jeez, eleven? That is a long time for one name.

I dunno, I like whitelighting... but maybe it's just cuz it reminds me of my year in London and drinking cider at Marble Arch while getting my ass kicked in soccer (FOOTBALL) by some ten year old kids.

I suppose if you really had to change it, to pick something that has a strong connection to your interests or your past, combine them, and hope it doesn't like a shitty emo band.

WhiteLightning 2011-03-29 15:08:15

Oh, it'll be some degree of ridiculous, I assure you. I'm considering my long-standing gamer username I-AM-Q. Very unconventional for an internet name I know, but it would surely stand out, and has a good degree of quirkiness.

And...oh hey, it's you...RicePirate...don't listen to that podcast episode.

morcov 2011-03-29 17:02:05

But the White Noise pun is clever.

Also, I picked my name at 10, not by myself, but with the club penguin suggested user names. I then forgot the password to Timmy4080 and made TehTimmy4080, because I thought leet was cool at the time.

Also is me, gingerballs.

WhiteLightning 2011-03-29 17:02:05

Ah, hey :) I do still plan to keep the White Noise title because it's still rather applicable, even though it no longer has the double meaning.

AleksandrtheGreat 2011-03-29 18:11:29

Your name isn't that bad really, I just replaced Alexander the Great with my name (and yes that's how my name is spelled... I hate my mom).

WhiteLightning 2011-03-29 18:11:29

Ah, but see? Original. Even if...odd. That's what I need. And yes, as a name, White Lightning is pretty good. It's just that everyone else has realized that and, consequently, used it. In fact if you google White Lightning you get exactly 4,410,000, and as far as I know, none of them are me.

Jazza 2011-03-29 19:13:34

ps, i think whitelightning is cool and recognizable and doesn't really require change, but your choice :)

WhiteLightning 2011-03-29 19:13:34

As future me, looking back on this, thanks to you and everyone else for making me keep my name. :)

RicePirate 2011-03-30 12:57:26

I voiced my own distaste for the hype of Dot Dot Dot on numerous occasions, so I get it.
As for the Clock Day collab, I actually liked my part :)

Stay snifty, brother :D

WhiteLightning 2011-03-30 12:57:26 (Updated 2011-03-31 11:43:24)

Aw, you listened to it. It was mostly jokes, I promise. I select internet nemeses at random; it's kinda like a mental disorder. However, I stand by my belief that the Clock Collab, as a whole, was terrible. I would've been included, but their technology issues allowed me to back out. HUZZAH!

(I'll show Ian you said that so you can get kudos : ] )

NitrogenousBeing 2011-04-19 19:21:31

Haha the first thing I thought when I saw your username was how generic but hey if your the best one then everyone else is copy according to the interwebs. And really when I see whitelighting now its obviously you...you just have a lot of clones out there. Hope that in the future you wont be wanting to go back in time and kick your own ass for changing it to some gamer name like I-AM-Q...: )
