Have you ever wanted to start your own Mons Series? Do you have any ideas for what it would be like if you did start one?

I haven't thought about it before. Since I like Gentle Giant characters, maybe if I did one, all the Mons would be giant, but still friendly to humans?

[down]Sorry, but it's been many years since I've watched it, so I don't really remember.

In your opinion, which Peeled Pokemon is the worst?

My vote goes to the Doduo because oh lord in heaven

[down] NieR: Automata's first three endings are essentially three different routes that are meant to be experienced in sequence, each giving a different perspective and context on the previous route.

Fallout: New Vegas has a "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue for every major character and settlement you come across, stitched together into a ten minute or so slideshow. Each of these slides have different permutations depending on how their quests resolve and your Karma Meter. My favorite part, though, is that noclipping in the epilogue will reveal the entire thing to be a literal slideshow narrated by a guy from behind the curtain.

A question someone else asked a different person, but a question worth considering: do you have a favorite use of Multiple Endings in a game?

Because I would say... Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. Picture, if you will, thinking you beat the game, all is happy, joyous and well… but then The Fairy Queen hits this malicious grin to send chills down your spine, thus forcing you to collect ALL the titular Crystal Shards to get the actual ending. Fairly rudimentary stuff, even back then, but as it is my first ever Kirby game, the nostalgia is nevertheless real.


[down] Shit, isn't THAT a good question.

The thing that works so well with the movies that I do think are perfect, is that every detail you COULD think to tweak, the film already accounted for, i.e. the vision of the movie is this complete package. You look at movies like Hot Fuzz, or The Crow (1994), or Django Unchained, hell, let's throw in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse for good measure (AND The Mitchells vs. the Machines while on that topic), and you get movies that knew exactly what kinds of tales they wanted to be, where every single narrative writing decision they made was carefully premeditated. Nothing in these films really indicate that anyone was merely going through the motions, there was an active vision from beginning to end, and one the movie in question is NOT ashamed of. (And it doesn't even have to be a deeply profound thing, either! I mentioned The Mitchells VS The MACHINES, for crying out loud! A wacky, loose screw family, fighting the robot apocalypse… and winning. Um, yes please, more of THAT.)

Really, I'd say that there's a plethora of movies I could give as my answer... Ace Ventura: Pet Detective could really stand to have its twist villain handled... SO much better (though admittedly these sensibilities we have these days, weren't really a THING back in the 90's unfortunately), BUT, really, if there was a film I'd give as an answer here and now, off the top of my head?

The Purge. Mind you this is a plot hole that the entire rest of the series commits itself to fully rectifying and exploring, but man, imagine if the film that started it all, knew off the bat that it'd be in its narrative best interests to reveal that the rich oligarchs were the ones TRULY pushing for such a day, to scrub out the lower class. Alas, we merely have a serviceable horror movie to pave the way for phenomenal action sequels instead.

Ever thought about giving the other Transformers shows a chance?

[down] Although I love many Betty Boop shorts, the episodes that focuses on Pudgy the puppy are a bit too saccharine, especially the "Swing School" episode. It almost feels like a preschool show.

The 2009 Strawberry Shortcake series also was way too sweet in comparison to the others with no Pieman (until one of the last episodes) , the lack of more tomboyish girls or ones with attitude and even had had the nerve to make Sour Grapes into one of the kids instead of the wicked old lady she was prior.
