I would honestly enjoy any kind of decorating video for this island - moodboards for the different sections would also be pretty cool if you felt like making some and showing them of as a kind of mini explanation at the start of each one. A random thought that popped into my head was: if you were going for a medieval set - how about something with the villager Vic as a viking
I'd love to see how you recreate film sets and scenes from movies or shows 🤌maybe with a smol mood board or an overview of the items and then as a speed build version
I lost it at starting day 2 with “a body in front of my house.”😂😂You’re so clever and the timing with the editing was flawless. I can’t wait to see where this island idea takes you!! I also think you should definitely have Marlo on Framework because of his classic movie reference
soo excited for this new project 😍 especially the mixture of medieval and tech stuff! i’m looking forward to see your process of building this island 🥰 loved the funny commentary in this 🤍
I’m an actress in LA and it’s actually so cool that you’re native fruit is orange trees, because Hollywood used the be a huge orange grove before all the studios were built!
very excited for this theme! can't wait to see how you're going to pull it off and for villagers: if you plan to have medieval film set area, the prince Colton may just be the perfect villager to have. definitely not suggesting this for selfish reasons, as he's my favorite villager or anything, no no
I did so not see this theme comming but now I'm super excited and interested in how it will turn out. The commentary is first class and I love it. I hope you have fun doing this theme and can enjoy playing ACNH again.💚
3 minutes in and i adore the style with the kind of roleplay of this video! Its so creative and fun to watch. The irony is so funny, gosh i love this 🧡
Already love this idea so much! Your video production skills on this are also 10/10, made the beginning of the game we’ve all done a thousand times seem exciting again 🥺 on to New Horizons we go ✨
If I do any villager hunting I think I’ll work it into the decorating videos 🤔 and same for code shopping I believe? Since the codes are very dependent on the specific areas, I might only really think of them once I start working on an area 🤔 does that make sense? 😅
What an awesome video - love this style and the way you talked about each event that happened in such a creative way! Looking forward to seeing more about Framework! Also, Zell is PERF for this island - he should never leave. I think it would be cool to have themed villagers for the different sets - like if you have like a magical kind of set you could have a pastel villager living in that area, or the medieval set could have a medieval villager living in that area. What a great island, Malin!
Gotta love that new island excitement! Im really glad that you chose to move on to a project that resonates better with you, despite pressure to do otherwise ❤ And there is so much versatility and potential with this theme! I hope you enjoy building it as much as we will enjoy watching ☺️
first of all: woweee, the editing? scuse me? so as you know, I'm wildly in love with the concept and all the references already make me wanna see more, more more! this theme offers so many possibilities and I bet you'll come up with lots of great ideas. also - did you really just need one restart to find a good map? iconic
This island sounds amazing!! I love this speed through to 3 stars and all the custom designs, SO GOOD! I think Tex is an amazing smug, I love Zell too though!
I‘m so so happy for you about all these comments you got on the video! You truly deserve all the love on this new island and ideas you‘ve got. I really enjoyed being introduced to framework, it’s such a unique and interesting theme and concept in the best way possible. I‘m very much looking forward to the next framework update✨🤎
I am so stoked for your new island! You seem excited and passionate about the theme, and that is wonderful! I am happy for you for finding that 😊 looking forward to how you shape it and create it 👏
This video is so goood! So witty, so clever - exceptional ☺️ I love the theme too! Hopefully the change in style will be exactly what you need ☺️ cant wait to see it all come together
I completely agree now, that the emote was super fitting hehe (maybe I have supernatural powers? ) and I love the idea, the name and the editing you did with this! It sounds like you really had fun making all of this, which is super nice to see and hear and I hope it helps getting creative mojo back for this game.
I had Diva as a starter character. It was such a happy day when she asked to move! LOL Then I went and found Hamphrey too! He is a grumpy hamster, but he can be funny too. I love the new idea! I cannot wait to see it come to fruition! I am happy that you are feeling more inspired.💜💜
I've restarted my island so many times never have I completed any and get 5 stars yet .. I just adore the restart .. adore the warm feeling when I restart .. sending hugs all around
I feel like I shouldn't have clicked on this. Now I went and restarted my own Island and I kinda don't really have time to get obsessed by ACNH again. Oh well. I blame you for making it look so much fun to restart.
YOU and me have the same taste in amazing villagers. Eunice and Pippy were two that I kept on my island until the end. Good luck with all of your projects
Oh wow i didnt See that coming! The Theme is so incredibly creative ! ❤I wanna See EVERYTHING! haha, especially how you will incorporated villager Houses and set builds 🎉 i can't wait to see more!
I’m excited for the new theme. I hope it helps creativity flow and helps you with your burn out. I’ve wanted you to take any time you need, of course, but you have been missed. (I just finished binging your 14 day challenge.) I think you were starting up quite a few islands all at once with similar or at least adjacent themes. It also really sucks, having to complete the tutorial each and every single time before you can really do anything. Less time to play plus the monotony of tutorials and similar themes (not that any of them were boring, they were all just nature inspired) is a fast track to burn out. If this island doesn’t end up getting your creative juices flowing again, that’s okay. Your mental health is more important. ❤❤❤ Welcome back!!!!
Oooh this is such an inventive theme! Can't wait to see what you do with it 🤩 For villagers, defo get some that are dressed up in themes that you are going to do movie sets for, e.g. Becky for medieval! ☆~
English is not my first language so im not sure if its a film studio or a music studio but if its a film studio you could do a movie scene with gyroid? ( my game is in french X)
@@Nickie-os7od Pupplyn, RyanFTW, a recent one is The Mori Plays, I liked watching angry coconut, etc. I can find more for you. I watch a ton of Animal Crossing TH-camrs!
Definitely get a lion so it could be a Metro Goldwyn reference! Elvis would be cool since he can be the king of your medieval movie Also I saw you didn't pick Tiansheng who could've worked well as Sun Wukong on some ancient film Unless you only want to make the medieval sets, same with Diva, Tammy and Clay but for the respective countries and eras they're based off
If you want to get all the money and resources out of the rocks before you get the shovel, place the bugs or fish down where you'd usually dig the holes and it works just as well
i think diva works well for this island tbh! she’s a bit scary.. but she definitely gives the vibe of an aged snobby actress who wants a simpler life, but still wants her fame. i also think zell works PERFECTLY as a stage hand or a lead actor because that’s all he talks about on my island. :)
Can't wait to see this island. I love your content, need to catch up on some stuff lol. I'm so disheartened by Nintendo's lack of support and actual abandoment of this little gem. At only 4 or 5 years old, they could MORE than still be supporting this game, even if just in the form of new furniture, crops and flowers to grow, and decorative/themed items. And even if they charged a small fee, I along with countless other ppl would still be buying it and making new islands and many channels would still be dedicated to almost solely ACNH content. (What a wasted opportunity by Nintendo to take more of our money lol!) Have you considered trying Palia? (you can do Switch or PC, there are some more little 'cheats' as far as decorating on PC). It has fun, cute questing and gathering and NPCs, and it's delivering on items to decorate and building. (They are also still in Beta, were purchased by a bigger game co so that they can commit more fulltime devs to expansions, etc. so I'm loving the potential Palia has. I enjoy it and it fills that build/designing/homemaking void that ACNH left us with haha!) You'd probably create some AMAZING builds in Palia (you also get a BIG lot, and you can have multiple plots. And they are working on expanding the item limit on plots due to the number of items in game and the elaborate builds ppl are making. Would love to see what you'd do, and it'd branch out your following to a new game too~ )
We’ll just have to come up with our own ways to keep it interesting 🥹 I have thought about it and briefly started it as well but admittedly don’t really have the time to deep dive into another game at the moment 😮💨
Hi! I’m new to acnh and love your channel ❤ have you made a video (or do you know of someplace I could look) that shows how you can visit your other island like you did at 10:08 ? I have two switches and an island on each one, but I don’t think I’m able to have the game open on both at the same time to open the gates. Thank you so much!
Hey 😊 So as far as I know (I might be wrong here though) you can only do that if you basically have the game twice! I have the downloaded version on one switch, so I got it again as a cartridge when I got my second switch.I don't know if it'd be possible other than that! 😭
Please keep Diva for this island she is so Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra coded she could be the “hollywood diva” of your island, and also you should keep the museum in its tent so it looks like an Indiana Jones type of set!!!
Love the storytelling commentary and that New horizons pun was smooth. Excited for this island, the theme is so unique and I know you're gonna turn it into something amazing.
I just started playing animal crossing almost a week ago! had no idea how the game went and was pretty happy with it but I saw some videos about the islands having different flowers/trees/villagers that you cannot change and i’m contemplating restarting… this may be a dumb question but can logging in the game with a different nintendo account make another island without deleting the first one?
Unfortunately no... What that would do is create a second character on your island. In order for you to start a new island you'd have to completely delete the save data for the game. You can change all trees, flowers and villagers though, so maybe there's no need to restart at all! I made a video about tips and tricks a while back (th-cam.com/video/l5aBDXkvtAw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=P9sOTtRFXwmXl4I3) which goes over lots of interesting things including the things you can and cannot change, maybe that can help! 😊
Awesome video! Love the vibes of this new island!! but also... HOW DARE YOU HATE ON DIVA!!! (tbh I hated her at first too, but then I had her on 3 consecutive islands and I grew attached. Stockholm syndrome I guess lol)
Hi there While you're here, I would love to know if there's any specific videos you'd like to see about this island?
Let’s play !!!
i’d love to see some speed build and lets plays! :)
I would love to see a planning video 😊

Eeeeek, thank youu! Also can’t take all the credit for the name, Bambi definitely got me there!

Ooh I didn’t know that, what a coincidence!! 😯
Fun fact a lot of the cities and towns in southern California used to be mostly citrus groves up until about the late 60's in some areas
so excited for the rest of this island!! loved the story from such a usually boring chore on a new island :))
Thank you! 🤎
very excited for this theme! can't wait to see how you're going to pull it off and for villagers: if you plan to have medieval film set area, the prince Colton may just be the perfect villager to have. definitely not suggesting this for selfish reasons, as he's my favorite villager or anything, no no
Hahaha noooo, definitely not suggesting it because of that, nooo 😂🤎
i’m obsessed with this theme!! you can do so many different types of builds and themes and they all work together!! genius!
I did so not see this theme comming but now I'm super excited and interested in how it will turn out. The commentary is first class and I love it. I hope you have fun doing this theme and can enjoy playing ACNH again.💚

Omg this comment just made me go “awwww omg” out loud to my roommate 🥹🥹 thank you so much! 🤎
I am so excited for this theme!! I'd love to see long plays, code shopping, villager hunting etc. Really any video you put out, will be fantastic!
If I do any villager hunting I think I’ll work it into the decorating videos 🤔 and same for code shopping I believe? Since the codes are very dependent on the specific areas, I might only really think of them once I start working on an area 🤔 does that make sense? 😅

Hehehe I’m glad, I worried it was too much ngl
@@sparksby not at all! It was great

Omg the theme - OBSESSED!!! I did an LA inspired town at one point with lots of Hollywood references and this gets me so nostalgic about that island!
I feel like I shouldn't have clicked on this. Now I went and restarted my own Island and I kinda don't really have time to get obsessed by ACNH again. Oh well. I blame you for making it look so much fun to restart.
ah, Malin, i LOVED this
This video is so good!!! I love the style of commentary and editing. You are so inspiring!!!! So excited to see where this goes :)
Diva is actually perfect for a movie theme
This is such a weird theme and I LOVE IT! I’m not creative enough to do something like this so I’m interested to see how this turns out. 💕
Hopefully it’ll work! 🤞🏻 you never know, sometimes a theme can surprise you, if you want to do a specific one I’d definitely say try it! 🤗
i only just recently started playing animal crossing (abit late ik) but i really enjoyed this video. good job and keep it up. i subbed :)
YOU and me have the same taste in amazing villagers. Eunice and Pippy were two that I kept on my island until the end. Good luck with all of your projects
One of THE best acnh videos I’ve ever watched ✨✨✨🤌🏼 chef’s kiss editing
as someone being completely obsessed with cinema, film sets and all that stuff, I’m soooo excited about this new island!!! 😍
Oh wow i didnt See that coming! The Theme is so incredibly creative ! ❤I wanna See EVERYTHING! haha, especially how you will incorporated villager Houses and set builds 🎉 i can't wait to see more!
I am quite excited about some interior decorating as well, we’ll see how much I actually get recorded 🤞🏻🤞🏻
this was such a fun video thank you so much for sharing it! very excited for this island - the theme is so unique and fun!

Welcome back!!!!
Love the story while you are doing this. Eunice is one of my favorites, so good choice!
Love the commentary story telling! Look forward to seeing more of this story! 🫶
Thank you!
I liked your other theme and wanted that completed! Maybe one day...glad that you are back! ❤
You could always try building that theme yourself if you'd like to see it completed ❤
Really love this island theme! All the different film sets sounds like a super fun way to try out a bunch of different themes.
Right? Excited to see how it’ll turn out! 🤞🏻
i just began playing this wholesome game and this video was really usefull and also soooo funny!! :)
i’m so excited to see how this turns out ❤❤

Zell ist absolut perfekt für die Insel! Von seinen Farben, seinem Charakter und der Inneneinrichtung 😍
This might be off topic but this was really well edited! That intro tho!!!
This is such a clever and fresh way to do the road to 3 stars 😂 love it girl
Your commentary is making my whole morning, this is hilarious
🥹🥹🤎
The new theme sounds suuuuper exciting!❤
Love this new theme, can't wait to see more of it 😊
Love this theme. Excited to see how it goes. If you're looking for a sleazy movie director, I think Barold would work!
Chefs kiss for the story telling vibes in this video
❤ i love your videos they help with my anxiety so much your costal retreatits my favored it inspired my island thank you for all your hard work
Yayyyy a new Sparksby video!! ❤
im excited for this new series
What a fun idea! I’m really looking forward to seeing more of Framework 🎥
🤗😍
For this type of island, I’d think patty would be a perfect villager! Often chatting about becoming a pop-star she’d make perfect actor 💫
sparksby restarting island videos are like chicken noodle soup when sick
What a great video! Love this new theme idea!
I’ll be honest I don’t really know what to expect from this theme but I’m very much intrigued!
This is so funny😂❤ thank you for making this video!!

I started a new Island on the 4th of the month so it'll be fun to follow you along a new island and I also got oranges.
I love watching these kinda videoss

Ohh this is so exciting!
I've been thinking about restarting... but the very beginning is too slow I'm not sure if i want too do it again.
this is such a fun theme!!!
So jealous with the one island layout with the resident services a good 15 min jog away from the airport
OMG Billy and Diva were my starting villagers on my first/current island, Barbieland
Please keep Diva for this island she is so Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra coded she could be the “hollywood diva” of your island, and also you should keep the museum in its tent so it looks like an Indiana Jones type of set!!!
FR THO
Love the storytelling commentary and that New horizons pun was smooth. Excited for this island, the theme is so unique and I know you're gonna turn it into something amazing.
Hehe yay! Fingers crossed!
This series literally started the day I came back to animal crossing

@@sparksby ohhh I see!! I’ll check out the video on trees/villagers, thank you so much!! 🦦🫶🏼
I think you should definitely keep Zell but also maybe get Bruce too? His interior is quite cool and somewhat fitting!
Even though I absolutely loved the botanical garden island, I’m glad you finally put it to rest😭it was a struggle island
it would be criminal not to have Monique on your island!❤
You like Hamphrey but not Clay? That’s interesting
I also restarted and this has gotten me more motivated :]
Your commentary is hilarious.
i think piper would be such a good villager for this island 🖤
So exciting!
Yayyy the gift fairy, every island should have one
Love the new theme. ❤
Love your videos!! ✨🧚🏻
i feel like olivia would be a perfect villager for this island as well as ione, kitty, marlo, eugene and pecan! (will the queen respond?)
Felicity would have been perfect for this island
OO omg i want pippy sm for my island 😭! if she moves out how much bells or tickets would u take if i can come and get her 😳?
also! i know theyre not the prettiest or most popular villager but i feel like klaus and mira look like theyre actors in costime!
Awesome video! Love the vibes of this new island!! but also... HOW DARE YOU HATE ON DIVA!!!
(tbh I hated her at first too, but then I had her on 3 consecutive islands and I grew attached. Stockholm syndrome I guess lol)
