->''But so, whatever, [[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]] remains on Earth and has a series of relatively tame, bloodless adventures while chased by Dr. Robotnik. That is, until he and his human friend arrive in San Francisco. By this point, Dr. Robotnik has synthesized one of Sonic's quills to be able move just as quickly as, say, an intergalactic hedgehog. What results is a chase scene through the streets of San Francisco, with Robotnik blowing up everything in sight including … a bus full of civilians.''

With Miller it was hard to tell truth from fantasy, sometimes it wasn’t worth thinking about. It was funny and scary, except the fear would only come later.''

This is someone who has been pressured consistiently since she got her power to always be happy. There's also [Mirabel's] mother, and how she's likely pressured to constantly be cooking, because what if somebody gets into an accident and they're near death?

->Think of Bill Murray's character in ''Film/GroundhogDay'', who having spent tens of thousands of years living the same day on repeat, conceivably would have fucked, murdered, and eaten everybody in that town, Punxsutawney Phil included, many times over. By the time he finally woke up next to Andie [=MacDowell=], he'd have [[BewareTheSuperman zero sense of moral boundaries]], and any true epilogue to ''Groundhog Day'' would end with the discovery of her horribly broken body, while Bill Murray's shot to death by cops, masturbating on the roof of a children's hospice.

->''Christopher Robin happens to have two balloons, having been to a party at Piglet's house the day before. This is, to put it mildly, a rather troubling plot development-- has Piglet had a party and not invited Pooh? He has invited Christopher Robin, and allowed him to take a total of two balloons home with him, and he has even invited one of Rabbit's relations who was rather too young to go to a party but went anyway. Surely Pooh was invited too, but if he was, where is his balloon?''

->''What a scary concept: to use that thing as a weapon? Dropping one of those eggs on an enemy territory would be worse than an atom bomb. The Aliens would wipe out any population. Now, assuming the company knew what kind of aliens existed on this planet and sent an unprepared crew over there, how did they plan to bring it back and how would they control it? Now obviously it was a half-cooked scheme and it wasn't successful, and to use those Aliens against your enemy would only result in spreading a new enemy that's even worse.''

Doesn't count, because it completely misreads the situation. There's never any mention of whether Ganondorf WANTED "male heirs". His plans usually revolve around "claim the Triforce, become immortal".


->Basically, once every 100 years a male is born into the Gerudo and the rest are women. Now, you gotta ask yourself whether Nintendo [[WritersCannotDoMath thought into the implications of this in the slightest]]... A man will remain fertile even if he lives to be 100 years of age. A woman won't. D'ya see where I'm goin' with this? 'Cuz it's pretty horrible. In order to have a male heir, Ganon would need to have a daughter first. And then [[ParentalIncest he'd need to have a daughter with]] ''[[ParentalIncest that]]'' [[ParentalIncest daughter]]. And then he'd have to have a son with his granddaughter.\\\
I'll just let that one sink for a minute.
