I rarely watch things alone. Ponies might be the exception.

I find the problem with "badass" is that its very often just flash and flair, without the substance to back it up.

I mean okay, you want to convince me you're so awesome? Do something awesome! Don't just stand there and act smug. And none of this Cooler's Revenge "I just took your strongest attacks like it was nothing" nonsense either—that's just cheap.

Badassery should be defined by accomplishments, not by attitude.

This is why one of my favorite videogame badass is Sir Auron. He pulls of the badass things without having to resort to flair or style.

I'm a firm believer in the belief that a villain should at least be AS awesome as the hero their facing

I'm telling you, you should really try out Planescape: Torment.

Where can you get Planescape Torment nowadays?

GOG.com has what you need!

Have you ever gotten choked up a little when all those guys say, "I am Spartacus!" and you see him there, and it's like, Manly Tears, man.

@ginger: You like Rocky... 4... and not... Rocky?

What.

Endvillain in Planescape Torment is voiced by Tony Jay. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Evening guys, what's up? Ginger, I saw that you were watching the Let's Play run of Sonic 06 that Medibot participated in, I'll have to tell hi how well loved he is here when I see him again.

I don't like Auron

I played on new map in TF 2 - Canterlot. It was awesome. It have many locations from Canterlot episodes plus that shield.

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

I haven't seen Spartacus. I know that I'm not being talked to but I feel like adding that.

On another note has anyone been to cinema and had people start cheering or reacting loudly? I haven't but I hear stories of it happening all the time and I'm glad I've never encountered it.

What sort of episodes would you guys like to see in the next season?

Also, do we know when the next season is slated to begin?

You should see the uncensored version if you ever want to watch it, though. It got cut for release.

Fucking Hays Code, man...

And I'm not elitist, I'm just, Rocky is awesome and totally not lame! Rocky 4 is funny, but it's not better!

Ugh, this is so annoying. I'm doing a quest in Dragon\'s Dogma where you have to catch a fast thief on foot. Even though my character is an archer, I'm not allowed to just shoot him. Or cut him. I have to run up and use the extremely slow grapple move to grab him. Screw this quest, not wasting my time.

@ Enlong: Scootaloo episode, an Applejack/Rainbow centric episode. Return of Blueblood or any one shot antagonist.

Rocky bores me. I can't stand the romance angle of it.

Rocky 4 had the best villain

I agree Con, fuck the Hays Code. The one arguably good thing that came of it was directors got to test creative ways of sneaking stuff past the censors.

[up]4 had the steroid fueled Russian, right?

So eariler you were all talking about Badass charectors and how to do them poorly. For me, I think Spike Spiegal {Main charector of Cowboy bebop.} is an example of how to make a badass properly. He can kick ass, but he's not immune to getting owned in quite a bit of fights. He's also made some fairly poor desiscions at times as well. It makes him seem more human then a fair amount of "Badass" charectors in my personal opinon.

As for how to do a badass poorly..... Just look at Sonic the hedgehog in Sonic X and the Sonic Archie comics.tongue

"I must break you." Really? Ivan Drago is not my idea of a good villain, but damn was he funny.

@Blue I was able to attack him to stagger him so I could grab him. Are you sure you're not allowed to attack him, or have you just not tried?

I'm not sure which one-shot antagonists should return. I was thinking perhaps Trixie, since she left without learning a single thing. But I'm not sure if an episode where she does learn a lesson would really work.

@Ginger and Condo: Can y'all stop sniping at each other? We're supposed to all be friends here.

What sort of episodes would you guys like to see in the next season?

Scootaloo episode, beach episode (with a sea monster), more duo episodes (Rarity and Twilight, Rainbow and Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie, stuff like that), more adventure episodes, return of Luna, return of Shining Armor and Cadance, Celestia episode.

@Perpetual Lurker: Well arrows don't seem to work. I don't care, I'm not gonna waste any more time with this quest. I've got a main story to get too.
