Polling / Re: what would be the lamest retcon ever?
« on: March 24, 2009, 02:17:53 am »
Lames Retcon: Lavos wasn't really trying to destroy the world, he was just a misunderstood cute, fluffy, and adorable creature. Crono and Co didn't defeat him, they explained to him the wonders of friendship, sunshine, and picnics in the park. And there was no time travel, it was all a make-believe adventure Crono had one day.

i think that one may be too close to call. i'd have to say that arrested development won me first, it's always sunny in pa won me much quicker.  but i think both have strokes of genius in every episode.

the office, flight of the conchords, and even 30 rock are all fantastic, but each has at least one bad episode. i don't feel that way about development or sunny. EVERY episode is good. which is also subtlely frustrating. why'd they have to raise the bar so high damnit?

don't forget the episodes with father o'hara! or just matt. or just rickety cricket.

"she told him she'd kiss him if he ate a horse turd. when he did it she wouldn't kiss him and she said it was because his breath smelled like shit."

To keep this on topic, you know what frustrates me? People who say they don't (or won't) like a show simply because they didn't find it on their own and somebody is suggesting it. I'm in a web design class in college and was assigned a group project. Make a website with CSS(nothing new).

So our topic is music and I wanted to do a site on Flight of the Conchords, simply because it's not genre specific, it's universally enjoyable, their fan base is huge and there is a lot of content available (fan art, music videos, photos, clips of the show, clips of their standup act, music clips, etc.) that we could use to build a site rather easily and enjoyably for everybody. The people in my group had no idea who Flight of the Conchords were and even when I showed them one of the funniest songs from the show on youtube, and they laughed their asses off, they still didn't want to admit they liked it. They were all "we don't have HBO" and I was all "that's why I bought the DVDs until I could afford HBO". In the end, I showed the professor "Too Many Dicks on the Dancefloor" and it was decided that we SHOULD in fact do the project on them, which I consider only a small victory, as my team members still want to half ass it.

Other frustration: Horses are hard to draw.
Which is a shame, since they make such great super villains.

The THOROUGHBRED of SIN?! HAHAHAHA!

You should check out hulu.com. it's owned by nbc and fox (so it's legal), and they have a ton of free tv shows. The daily show and colbert report, heroes, always sunny in philadelphia, 30 rock, the office, and EVERY episode of arrested development to name a few gems. It's all really good quality streaming video with advertisements, which are a drag, but they're harmless and they do tell you how long till they're over. They have a lot of movies too, but the list is less impressive.
Thanks man I actually did check it out after seeing one of their goofy-ass commercials. There were some more obscure shows that I was disappointed that it didn't have, but oh well. It's Always Sunny and Arrested Development are two of my favorite shows, btw ("Magic, not tricks. Tricks are what hookers do for money *realizes kids are present* - aaannddd cocaine" - love it). And they seemed to have pretty much every episode of South Park in existence. Overall I'd say it's pretty cool and it can only get better.

Illusion, Mi-Chael!

Wild Card, BITCHES!

Actually, yes.  That's how Chrono Resurrection and that other 3D Chrono Trigger remake got closed down.

Lamesauce. In any case, they go about their business the wrong way.

Frustration: Being unbelievably bored. ...a television with basic cable broadcasting shows I've already seen re-runs of a million times...

Yeah, as far as the Compendium, I was reading the encyclopedia way before I checked out the forums.

Prophet's Guile is definitely what made me take the forums more seriously and decide to seek out other fan projects.

Ever since the Dream Team ending, which I got in 1996, I've been waiting for Chrono Trigger 2. Chrono Cross came out and all I could think was OMG that's either teenage Janus or Crono's little blue-haired brother! I was pissed when I actually played it though. I appreciate Cross much more now, but I don't think I ever got over that initial anger.

But that anger would never even be there if I didn't love Trigger so much!

cool idea, i just agree with zeph, you should change the shirt color a little bit. even just some grey for shadow would work well.

Frog, Magus, Crono

The Undersea Palace built by the Earthbound? That sounds comparable to the Hebrew slaves building the Pyramids.

My vote is on Hogwarts style magic defenses.

They're AWARE. Does that mean they know about the huge subculture of fan projects, specifically playable games, that has developed under their noses?

What was the thing that drew you to Chrono Trigger (or Cross) in the first place?

For me, it was the huge combination of Time Travel, dinosaurs, an apocalyptic future with robots, and the floating Atlantis.

(I was in third grade in 1995 and that's what I liked. I don't feel ashamed that I'm drawn to the same things to this day)

Chronomon definitely.

That's what I was afraid the multiplayer in CTDS would turn out to be. It's already way too close.



The play-as-Dalton game actually sounds kinda fun.
