Say, what's the story with Jimmy Two-Shoes?

I hear it's not cancelled but....it's not being produced eithe.

@colin

Yeah, but I always thought the show's scripting did a real good job of making it obvious that Haley overachieves purely because she wants to prove that she's as good as Jake. and that she deeply respects him.

Now I really want to watch the old cartoons again. Damn you people and my nostalgia glasses!

OH! I think that's why I liked her character in the show.

@Sky I can't watch something purely because it looks pretty.

Old cartoons, huh.

Still had good memories of watching g1 ponies on channel 12. Also all those glorious Disney cartoons from the 80s and 90s.

@colin I know that feeling. Which is why I now have all of The Powerpuff Girls on DVD.

@ginger This is like porn for the eyes. Anyway, watch it if you like, or not. I know you get picky about villains. I really need to stop suggesting things to you, because you just shoot them down.

When I have a fat wallet, I'm going to buy DVD sets of the old cartoons.

Thinking about the old times when I still liked television makes me feel old, even though I'm just 15.

I regularly scour the local video stores for C Ds and DVDs of classic cartoons. Needs more Ducktales.

@Sky Just reccomend me something with a good villain, problem solved

@ginger Well, I haven't memorized your strict guidelines for acceptable villains. When I'm watching a movie/show/etc, the last thing on my mind is "I wonder if ginger would like this villain?"

Okay, well reccomend me something with a villain that YOU like

So, in completely random non-pony related things, I just downloaded the Dragon\'s Dogma demo out of curiosity. Holy shit. The combat in that game is ten different kinds of awesome. You haven't experienced awesome action-RPG combat until you're fighting a giant griffin that keeps flying around as you ineffectually pester it with arrows, so the party's warrior crouches down and promtps you to run up to him so he can fling you at the griffin as it flies over, and as you are flung toward the beast the party mage imbues your daggers with fire, so that when you latch on to the thing Shadow of the Colossus-style your fiery daggers cause it's feathers to burn which causes it to crash to the ground so your whole party can wail on it. None of that is scripted, the party AI just knows when to do things to be useful, and if you don't take the warrior up on his offer to fling you, another party member will. Just had to share the experience.

Now, as for ponies, anybody looking forward to any particular surge of fan works during the break? I'd like to see one of the many fangames in production to finally be realized, personally.

I'm looking forward to the Pony Anthology myself

I don't have anything in particular I'm looking forward to, other than that I have one or two fanfic projects I hope to get started on.

Well, I like Charles Munsen (think that's his name) because he's one of the few Disney villains with a gun. Also, I understand his motives, to prove that the snipe exists. The only thing that bothered me was how old he was. Carl looked like he was in his 70s or 80s, so that would make Charles nearly 100. Yet he's still much more agile than Carl.

I'm looking forward to being able to get through my backlog of fics I need to read.

@Perpetual. If you have a PSP (Or a wii) I heartily recommend giving the Monster Hunter series a try.

I just want to see a Pony JRPG style game with decent snes era graphics and animations.

Almost every Pixar villain is awesome. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

I'm just waiting for Kingdom Hearts 3D.

That's what this conversation is about, right? Things we're waiting for?

@steve Especially AUTO

I wonder if the one in Brave (IS there a villain in Brave?) is any good

@ginger I haven't seen a villain in the promos, other than gender roles. That bear seems to play a large role, however.

Gah, I can't think of any more villains. Confound my mental block.

The Aussie dentist from Finding Nemo sucked as a villain. Sort of...

@Sky They're just not what the general public focuses on. That's ok.

@Freeman Was he a villain? He didn't really do anything antagonistic on purpose.

@ginger Your constant smiling is confusing me. It seems almost passive-aggressive, but that's just my paranoia.

@Lurker Pony Emblem. That is all.

Though I'm pretty sure it won't be completed over the summer.
