->'''Screenwriter''': So then she(Asha) asks if he(King Magnifico)'d consider granting her 100-year-old grandfather's wish.\\
'''Producer''': Okay.\\
'''Screenwriter''': So he checks it out, but the wish is to inspire people, so the king's like, "Well, that's too vague, what if he wants to inspire people to destroy the kingdom? We can't have that."\\

->''I know Danny is meant to be the strawman villain of the series, but…I mean…look at this. What about Spot's behavior isn't strawman villain incarnate? Danny has done nothing wrong and is simply playing a game on a console he likes, doing nothing to prevent Spot from playing it on his own preferred console. Yet Spot "comically" overreacts, calls it sacrilege to play a game he likes on a console he hates, and threatens Danny with violence for not enjoying a game his way. The whole premise of Danny and Spot was meant to be "reasonable dude vs. mean strawman", but really it's just "mean strawman vs. meaner strawman" and this comic is what really clenched it for me. Spot is just as much of a strawman as Danny. No two ways around it. This is Pot & Kettle: The Comic.''

->''I mean... REALLY, film?! [[DesignatedVillain The character who offers discipline and obedience is dubbed the VILLAIN in this film?!]] I mean, okay, he’s going to remove fun and stuff, I get that – but at least he actually has good REASON TO! [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality The character they call CRAZY wants to bring obedience to children?]] I mean, okay, KIDNAPPING them is wrong... but still... [[WellIntentionedExtremist What he wants to DO when he kidnaps them is fine]]. As long as he doesn't turn them into donkeys like the Coachman [from WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}] did...''
