Uh, Marcian? You DO realize I already scooped you here with my own post, right?

Didn't see the episode. The show has gotten a lot less funny to me, but reading the posts in here, I might have to check it out.

I wish they'd give Mila Kunis more lines.

Judging from this thread, I suppose I'm the only person that still gets a kick out of the crap they give Meg.

Quote:However, it's been shown that Brock actually cares for Hank and Dean, and he was laughing about it too. They could laugh at it now because for them, Hank and Dean were still alive (Even if just clones). And now we know that it's not because Rusty was trying to force his lifestyle on Dean, he honestly thinks it's what Dean wants. He thinks Hank is rebelling against the very lifestyle he *HATED* growing up, and feels sorry that Hank is so much like him. That's why he pushes Hank away, in a misguided attempt to protect him. His hearts in the right place, he just doesen't realise he's got things mixed up.Originally Posted by Dark One
I wouldn't say he cared all that much. Given the amount of laughing that he and Brock did over the various times and methods of the clones' deaths. To me, the speed suit thing was the epitome of the father trying to force his son down the path that the dad wants, regardless of the kid's feelings.

Quote:Even with the clones, he still cared. Like when Rusty took Dean shopping for his very first Speed Suit.Originally Posted by Dark One
The only reason he's started to care about 'em is because he doesn't have the clones any more to replace 'em when they do something stupid like jump off the roof while wearing a Batman outfit.

Quote:That's pretty much it. Rusty think's Dean lives for it (Much like his father), which is why he keeps pushing Dean twords it. Hank, he believes, rebels against it. And despite what you think, I think this shows some great character growth on Rusty's part. Is he misguided? Yes, he is. But at the same time, he truly DOES care for the boys, otherwise he wouldn't identify with hanks "Rebellion" and feel sorry for Hank being stuck in the very same life he himself hated.Originally Posted by Unknown_User
Watched it, liked it, the only part that I didn't like was when Rusty Venture was talking to Hank about him and his brother. Not sure if I heard it right but it seemed that Dr. Venture was saying he sees Dean as someone who wants the Venture life, and would fit right in with it. Were Hank was just born, tagging along and rebelling against it. Doesn't Dr. Venture see that Hank would actually enjoys it and wouldn't mind the Venture life were as Dean is doing everything he can to hide and escape from it. So far I really haven't seen much character growth or development in Dr. Venture other than being a pompous ******* to everyone around him.
It may be a mistake on his part, but it doesen't change the fact that his heart is in the right place. -
Quote:They did have him travel around on his magic skateboard, right up until they killed him, though. (By Magic Skateboard, I mean his Skateboard was apparently sentient as part of his mutant powers)Originally Posted by BrandX
I can imagine.
They can't have him miracously walking every few years. -
I was kind of hoping that the killer was going to turn out to be the giant Chicken, but I still loved the episode. I am, however, dissapointed that they killed off one of my favorite characters.
Also, Patrick Stewart as the cat was awesome. I also applaud them for having the stones for this episode to be cannon. -
Quote:Marvel already tried the legless superhero bit with El Guapo. It didn't work out so well for him.Originally Posted by BrandX
Sciricco isn't Muslim? I thought he was muslim. >_>
And land mind? I would of said he survived a terrorist suicide bombing that killed both his parents, while they were walking him out of the store through a back alley!
And then he could rage on about his dead parents (and missing legs), as he rolled the streets looking protecting his city as "The Silver Scorpion"
"I'M SILVER SCORPION!"
Okay, that last line just doesn't have the same ring. But the background is a proven hit! -

New look, and now dead. Marvel kills off heroes as fast as DC.

Quote:I thought the exact same thing. But yeah, totally better.Originally Posted by Halcyon_S
I admit, I was impressed with it though at first I thought they were going to have his date BE the Evo-Bunny in human form, but I liked what they did much better.

Brock's codename being Topanga Lawrence made me laugh.

Man, I *loved* the cameo of Bruce the performance artist.

I really have no smart-mouthed retort for that since Wendy, Marvin, and Dunder Mutt were the direct precursors to the Wonder Twins and Blip... I mean Gleek. Technically, the Hanna-Barbera production team learned from their mistake, as the follow-up trio were nowhere near as bad as the first trio.
That being said, the second go-around of wimpy hero sidekicks for the Super-Friends annoy me more than Marvin, Wanda, and Dunder Mutt. Mostly this is because Hanna-Barbera, after figuring out the trio was a bad idea and was turning viewers off, instead of creating entirely new characters simply raided their back catalog... specifically the 1966 Space Ghost show.
Space Ghost's two sidekicks were Jan and Jayce, and they had a pet monkey named Blip. The Wonder Twins were named Zan and Jayna, and their pet monkey was named Gleek.
I mean... seriously, Hanna-Barbera wasn't even trying. They just took the side-kick trio from Space Ghost, colored Blip blue, and called it a day. The sheer abject laziness of the shows producers, neverminding DC signing off on the project, just annoys the daylights out of me. -

Best. Episode. YET. Giant devil Evo-Bunny + insanely accident prone prom date = EPIC WIN. We have *totally* got to see a return of Annie.

All I could think about with tonights episode was:
"Robot Cerberus has NADS!" -
Quote:Theoretically, Vegeta and Trunks could have been about on par with Goku had they done what he and Gohan did and stay in Super Saiyan form as much as humanly possible. As for Piccolo, it may not have even been possible. Remember, Saiyans are a race genetically ideal for fighting. As for Cell, he wouldn't have gotten so strong if Vegeta hadn't let his ego get the best of him and let Cell absorb the androids.Originally Posted by Nightphall
Usually when a post like this appears, I ask the following question, but rarely have I gotten an answer.....
How much longer would the people who trained in the time chamber (Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Trunks) have had to stay in to become Cell's equal, without powering up or transforming, assuming the rule could be broken and one could stay in the time chamber beyond the normal limit?
I never did find it fair how strong Cell was, who never trained a day in his life. He absorbed 2 androids and hundreds of humans to increase his power, but still.....You'd think Dr. Gero would have programmed battle simulations into Cell........or did he? -
Quote:It should also be noted that the only reason that Future Trunks killed Freeza was because he thought that Goku wouldn't make it in time. It's heavily implied that Goku would have mopped the floor with Cyber Freeza and King Cold, much like Future Trunks did.Originally Posted by Zikar
You realise that you can defeat someone without killing them right?
Additionally, Goku didn't declare himself winner "arbitrarily". Freeza had lost all his power, there was no possible way that he could win. -
Now, I'll be honest. I don't really care for the Hulk myself, either. However, the problem for me is not that I don't like the Hulk himself, but because I really don't care for Marvel anymore (With the sole exception of Deadpool). And this all boils down to one simple reason: Marvel has pretty much destroyed my ability to care about their characters. Simply put, theres no growth anymore.
Why should I care if a character dies, when they are simply going to be ressurected six months later (Despite however Marvel may insist otherwise)? Or if a character makes a life altering move, when it's simply going to be retconned away anyways (Once again, despite how much Marvel may claim otherwise)? Character gets married or finds a life partner? Hell, their just going to end up in a fridge, or their marriage will be anulled in the most asinine way possible by an editor who thinks he knows better, anyways. So... why? Why should I care? Nothings going to happen, everythings always just going to return to the Status Quo by the end of the month.
