Ask the above poster a question

Favorite example of Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse?

It's the only design of the newly revealed Pokemon that I like, along with it's line.

What do you think of Obstagoon?

I'm not really sure... I think there may have been a time when I felt that way but I don't really remember.

What's a work where you really really agreed with the supposed bad guy?

Elora the Faun from Spyro the Dragon. She was a huge character in the second game and was clearly built up as a romantic interest for Spyro, but then got reduced to a cameo at the end of the third game. Even then, it still seemed they intended for her and Spyro to eventually become a couple, but then she was dropped altogether and was never even mentioned in future games.

Come to think of it, Bianca from the third game counts too. I think she really should have been the last Promoted to Playable character for Midnight Mountain instead of Agent 9, to really make her Heel–Face Turn that much more effective. That would have been so awesome to fight along her against the Final Boss!

Hopefully Toys For Bob gives them both bigger roles in future games! If Spyro and Elora don't get together, I'll riot!

Is there a character you feel didn't quite live up to their potential?

Back when I first got into MLP, my expectations weren't super high (though not super low either). It ended up being one of my favorite shows ever.

Is there a series that was much better than what you expected it to be?

Any Alpharad, GMOD/SFM Animation or a lot of spellbooked videos.

Favorite funny video from youtube?

This one, I don't recommend watching while eating.

Edited by The0dragon on Aug 11th 2019 at 6:06:38 AM

Strangest Youtube video you've ever watched?

Most disurbing thing you've seen on TV that didn't involve blood, gore, violence, or sex.

My Hero Academia. At first, I though it was just another superhero parody like One-Punch Man, then I learned it wasn't a parody, but instead a show about Kid Heroes, and I still wasn't interested because I assumed it was a little kid's show. Then I watched this, which is obviously a joke video, but regardless featured an actual song from the show. Once I was done laughing, I looked up the song and discovered it was from MHA, so I finally gave it a look.

Today?

PLUS ULTRAAAAAA!

something you expected to hate that you found you actually loved? doesn't have to be media, food or whatever works too

Garnet, of course. she's relationship goals incarnate.

Best gem from Steven Universe?

Hmmmm... Generic Doomsday Villain. Mainly because of frequent misuse the trope has and being a badge of shame.

Do you have a Pet-Peeve Trope?

Amazonian Beauty, Affably Evil, and Worthy Opponent.

Edited by DelphineTheDelphox on Aug 11th 2019 at 8:53:45 AM

Converse time: what’s your Favorite Trope, if any?

Stuff I’ve liked this year:

• “Let You Know” by Flume and London Grammar. (Flume’s entire mixtape from earlier this year might be my favorite electronic project of the year thus far. He’s got more stuff on the way, too, which is exciting!)
• “Concentrate” by Anti Up [Chris Lake and Chris Lorenzo]. (Weird house music is wonderful house music.)
• “I Wanna Know” by RL Grime and Daya. Technically this one was a single from Grime’s album NOVA (which dropped about a year ago), but I came to love it for real after going to his live show in Raleigh a couple months ago.
• “Designs for You” by Phantoms (a damn good house song!)
• “Lost Lately” by San Holo (best in its “alternative pure version,” essentially a revisit to the sound palette of his debut record from last year, album1)
• “Only Be Me” by DROELOE
• “Lost My Mind” by Dillon Francis and Alison Wonderland

Favourite songs of this year?

Best Go TG team?

Two words: Brave Frontier in which had an unapproved entry back then and also Dead Silence regarding Mary Shaw and wondering what made a villain so evil and gut-wrenching in the stomach like Mary Shaw to the point I learned about this trope more.

Edited by ElfenLiedFan90 on Aug 11th 2019 at 10:07:28 PM

What made you feel interested in the Complete Monster trope?

Sadly I haven't, but I'll give DOOM: Repercussions of Evil a try someday. So far, Thirty Hs is always my number one Fan Fic of all time...

Edited by KJsixteen on Aug 11th 2019 at 9:39:17 AM

Have you read many other Crack Fics? What are some of your favorite ones?

I'd probably say Mushu ("Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow...!!"). Honorable mentions include Spyro, '77 Elliot, any given Dragon-type Pokémon, and the various Dragon Tales main characters (Zak and Wheezie in particular).

Edited by kablammin45 on Aug 11th 2019 at 1:10:02 PM

Who's your favorite dragon in fiction?

Too many to say, honestly. I really like over half of them. What I can tell you is that the only type a outright dislike is Poison.

Edited by DelphineTheDelphox on Aug 11th 2019 at 12:48:22 PM

What's your favorite Pokemon type?

Hmm... I love penguins in general, but it's hard to pick a single species. Parrots, ducks, crows and ravens, and bird of prey are also cool.

Edited by Bluethorn on Aug 11th 2019 at 5:28:33 AM

Favorite bird species?

They're no Spider-Man 2 for sure, but they are better than 1 and 3.

Edited by VengefulBale on Aug 11th 2019 at 1:28:49 PM

How do you think Spider Man Homecoming and Far From Home compare to the Sam Raimi trilogy?

I actually haven't seen Infinity War, but I loved the credits in Endgame.

Edited by DrNoPuma on Aug 11th 2019 at 2:34:47 PM

Which Avengers movie has the best credits, Infinity War or Endgame?

Hawkeye, natch. Also Jeff Andonuts (especially compared to the other party members); Groose (he helped Link subdue sealed Eldritch Abomination twice just with a single invention); Solid Snake (should be obvious as to why); and Goofy as he appears in Kingdom Hearts (in comparison, Donald Duck is the most powerful red mage in Square Enix's history, whereas most of the other main characters are essentially Jedi before Disney bought them, with Mickey Mouse being essentially Yoda; Goofy, meanwhile, just has some good skills at using his shield, and he still keeps up with them).

Favorite Badass Normal-type character?

Caitlin is still my favorite; however, I really like Louise Lincoln's look in Batman: Assault on Arkham, which is odd, as Louise Lincoln is usually my least favorite version of the character. Were I to rank them from best to worst in my opinion? I'm probably gonna get flack for this, but Caitlin, then Crystal, then Louise.

Edited by Spottedleaf on Aug 11th 2019 at 1:27:05 PM

Opinions on the previous two incarnations of Killer Frost?

I think the Norse, Classical and some myths of the Aborigen are cool!

Edited by JTTWlover on Aug 12th 2019 at 3:33:49 PM

Favorite cultures' mythology aside from Chinese?

NiGHTS into Dreams… has a lot of cool sounds. See this. I especially like the sound NiGHTS makes when they dash. 😅

Edited by DrNoPuma on Aug 11th 2019 at 7:37:42 AM

Have a particular favorite video game sound effect?

I love a good Lethal Lava Land level. Those are some of my favorite levels to play through in video games.
