If there's a big disturbance, it's likely to make the news. They could easily have an AI to monitor footage for anything out of the ordinary, since such technology exists in the real world anyway.

then you are going to LOVE the last fight against the Operative.

Can't River just Curb Stomp the operative?

Or doesn't she fight him -_-

Thing is a hero can still win easily without being over competent. Again The Dreamstone, the heroes are usually completely useless but rarely get a hair out of place because the villains screw things up in a convinient manner. No way the heroes won was rootable because they never seemed to properly earn it or exert much effort into things, even when the villains did something genuinely competent. It didn't help the heroes were completely boring compared to the villains though, so got no pathos to gain audience sympathy. The more I think about this show, the more I think you would loathe it no end.

Maybe that's why you don't like infallible heroes, they don't have to put much hardship into their work.

The Operative fights Mal. You'll see.

final fight is Mal vs operative, River is busy with the Red Shirts

(groan) I'll see.

This shit is Iroh all over again

'S a shame I missed Fluttershy earlier.

So, hypothetically, a battle that's closely matched, with each side giving it everything they've got, and you're not sure who's going to come out on top until the very end when it's all over.

I had a dream last night about finding a MLP S1 box set.... but the episodes werent in order they were grouped up under headings like "friendship", "adventure", etc...

I'd still buy it...

Hopefully she'll be back soon.

"...ain't mutton but a hound dog..."

Seriously, I wonder why I bother wasting myself on you sometimes.

@Kyler Yup.

That, or a fight where the villain clearly has the upper hand but the hero still carries on through sheer pluck. (take the fight between Loki and Captain America in Avengers for a perfect example of that)

Which is why Metal Sonic is the perfect rival to the Hedgehog, he's the only rival that actually matches Sonic pound-for-pound. Once Shadow starts cheating with Chaos Control, Sonic has to grab an emerald and cheat back, and that kind of fight is boring

Well, if she's back tonight I'll miss it. I'll need to give up the computer in a few minutes.

I actually won S$500 worth of travel vouchers, but it still isn't quite enough if I want to go to Australia (and get the brony box set).

Finally finished all the chores in the shop.

So, what's happening?

You can try purchasing it online. Are you region 4 btw?

Now I kind of wonder what Ginger would think of Megamind's last battle with Tighten.

I quite enjoyed it actually

I think I had a pony dream last night.

Well, more like a bizarre mishmash of several styles and various odds and ends, the main of which was ponies. It did have a somewhat 22-minute episodic structure, with a beginning, an end and a somewhat discernible storyline. Spike was the main character and he was in his teenage form (Minus the greed, so I guess it was a natural growth). Also, Rarity going from town to town by train to gather materials for some kind of party to cheer up Spike. Then a bad guy shows up, who Spike then defeats.

Also, Wayne Brady's popped up for some reason. Not even the person; there was a town along Rarity's route that celebrated the CONCEPT of Wayne Brady.

Uh, yeah. And there was a whole lot of random non-pony things and stylistic changes and junk. It wasn't even really set in Ponyville.

For some reason, Sonic is a rare case of a fairly Invincible Hero I actually like, if only because it's a bit subtle and cockiness plays into his character as whole (as in not just smugness because every villain is incompetent). The only time I thought it got insufferable was in Sonic X, and that's only because he was so bland in it.

Watching Lesson Zero, as polarizing as it is, it's pretty much the point I started adoring Twilight's character.

Hey, there's something for a good season three plotpoint, Spike actually getting physical involvement. As shown in Dog and Pony Show, he isn't completely useless in combat so it would be cool to see him in action.

Did your dream involve chewing on Rarity at some point and then finding your pillow gone?

edited 21st May '12 8:02:20 PM by RichReeders

Sonic's only invincible as long as his jewlry collection holds out.

Or the pillow there but half a sheep crawling around.

"Ooohh, sorry..."
