[down] I mean, I do cook. Not professionally, of course. I like making simple dishes, like chicken and rice, just cause it's easy and tasty. If I'm feeling especially fancy, however, breakfast burritos!

Not applicable to me, I've only seen the first Terminator and I don't have it on physical media

Do you think Cave Story should get a sequel? If so, what would you want it to be like?

IDK

[down]Foodfight! (2012) was originally going to be a big franchise with a slew of sequels. Each one would have taken a bunch of pre-existing characters from different types of media (comic strips, arcade games, etc.) and put them in a story with the same level of "quality" as Foodfight. I'm glad that didn't happen. These characters deserve better.

Is there something you hope never gets a sequel… for any given reason, for that matter? Could be disdain for the work, or the exact opposite sentiment, an undying appreciation of the work's core, central themes, that a sequel would almost certainly ignore.


[down][down] Yes, and unlike the DS port of Sonic Colors, they did absolutely nothing of worth with said engine.
[down] If I may:
  • Thor: Ragnarok: I go at this, as someone who thought the OG Thor film was alright-ish, who thought Thor: The Dark World... was actually a film that I was surprisingly compelled by, not complaining when I watched it, and I felt, despite the drastically different approach to direction that obviously came in with bringing Taika Waititi on board for Thor: Ragnarok (and that includes tone)... it still FELT weirdly consistent, all things considered. Like, yeah, the moment we saw that Odin wasn't, in fact, left to struggle in a retirement home, but rather spending his last minutes peacefully in Norway, we knew that at the end of the day, Loki wasn't that bad, and that trickery just... was his domain that plagued him more than he'd have liked it to. It feels like a natural progression for Thor and Loki's incredibly convoluted and complicated brotherhood bond... finally getting to a place where the two of them... reforged their bond, stronger than ever.
  • Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 & Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: Okay, now here's a case where not only are the sequels good on their own... but in the case of Vol. 3, it made 1 hit... WAY harder for a certain scene... that is honestly just... staggering in how it laid the seeds for Rocket's backstory nine fucking YEARS in advance, where from Point A, Point B would explore the threads of A, make you think, "...THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE FUNNIEST FILM OF THE THREE, WHAT THE FUCK!!!", of a villain so... vile, my blood did some boiling... and then with Vol. 3, they let a story actually end. The story we've been following, with these specific peeps? Their story closed, their story concluded, it was done. And I wouldn't have had it any other way.
  • Kirby: Planet Robobot: In the context of the 3DS Duology, Kirby: Triple Deluxe was a delightful romp, truly, nice, largely self-contained... maybe there were shenanigans going on with the mirror thing, the playable Dedede mode was quaint... but compare that to Planet Robobot, where Kirby has the first Kirby villain in years (Susie specifically) who actually ticks him off by dismissing him, bringing out the fucking ANGRY EYES that they USUALLY just reserve for the freaking American boxarts! (And one who doesn't apologize and become his friend later, no, she is explicitly NOT his friend whatsoever as she claims those lemon squares at his barbecue!) That and the unsettling lore implications for Nova and The Fucking Dark Matter Plot Thread suddenly being fucking relevant again! And oh yeah, the glorious return of the Meta Knightmare mode is never not going to be hype.
  • Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze: ...I'll be honest, it's good, not just to have more Donkey Kong-feeling villains walking around and causing shenanigans, but also to have David Wise back at the helm, blending in so seamlessly that it feels like he never once left the series, regarding the music that he made. (I will never not sing praises of David Wise, the man is a Video Game Music History legend.)
I could probably go on, but you get the idea: I am not inherently opposed to sequels. If they take what was there beforehand, and actually build off from the pre-existing material, tackling new territory that makes SENSE to tackle? Sign my happy ass up.

Which is your favorite design for Tails?

As you can probably guess, I love his Modern design... but I still have a soft spot for his design in Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog.

[down]TBH, I like his themes in SA 1 and SA 2 equally. It's the same lyrics with completely different tunes, and I think both are peak.

[down] Well it wasn't not Wangst, to put it lightly. It was just... how do I put it... well the crying didn't help.
[down][down] I'll be completely honest, some part of my brain short-circuited when I wrote that: I forgot about the extensive series history of Mario Kart being really good about that, and the Crash Bandicoot racing gamees for that matter... and Gran Turismo... I'll be back.

What would you say is your favorite Dorkly video?


[down] For those currently keeping track, thus far I've listed Cerebus Syndrome, Knight of Cerebus, Card-Carrying Villain, and if we're talking the Rate The Above Trope Forum Game, you'll see I'm generally in favor of tropes to help fuel the immersion of the narrative being told… and one of the more controversial tropes that I see other tropers expressing disdain for due to the mean spiritedness of it all, Butt-Monkey… well uh… I am absolutely not helping my case, or making myself look any better with how much I use that trope with impunity.

…But I'm also a fan of Mooks. Any time, and I mean any time you need to start to selling a villain as someone who has a bit of a reach, you ironically gotta start with a whole buncha low ranking quirky, wacky schmucks who… don't quite warrant the feelings of fear (optionally, because you could go the Incredibles route).

…Although, side note, to the writers of the world, what the fuck is so difficult about having 50% of the Mook work force being GIRLS? Half the human population on Earth is ladies, about as many of them are gonna make dumb decisions as their male counterparts are.

(In case you couldn't tell, Always Male and Always Female are, shall we say… Pet-Peeve Tropes of mine.)
