Cartoon Characters that I shouldn't be attracted too but am.

Hey there, now this post is about cartoon characters I shouldn't be attracted to but am for some reason.
They are usually animals or under age and if they were real I wouldn't find em attractive but any who.

No. 5
The magic carpet in Aladdin.
Okay, starting off the list is the carpet from Aladdin. I don't know why but there is just something sexy about that carpet. It has personality, is funny and yeah... weird right\

No. 4
Roxanne from Goofy Movie

/Yeah, I don't know what it is but I just find this character design really attractive. I love the sleepy eyes and big pupils, the hair and the big nose. I also like her personality and I just think she is really pretty. Kicker, she's only 14. So that's why she makes this list.

No. 3
Stewie Griffin when he dresses up.


I don't know what it is about Stewie dressed up, especially in these two outfits but he is really cute as Zach Saywer and Karina Smirnoff. Yeah, this one is particularly bad because he's a baby, but I don't know, I think half of its to do with personality. When he looks normal, I'm not attracted to him but in these, I just think he's hot.

No. 2
Rainbow Dash
Okay, I don't know what it is about this character design, but that look and that personality just makes her attractive. She's confident and funny and really pretty in a tomboyish type of way. So yeah.

No. 1
Brian Griffin

Yeah, Another animal, but to be honest, I've found Brian hot for a while. I think he looks mature and boyish plus he is funny in how much of a jerk he can be sometimes without even realizing it. So yeah, If these character's were real I probs wouldn't find them attractive, but as 2 dimensional drawings, there's just something hot about them.

Top 10 Angry Beaver Episodes

I know that I rarely write about this show, but damn it if it's not my favourite Cartoon series of all time.
And with that, I'm counting down my top 10 episodes.

No 10
Open Wide for Zombie
I like this episode because I just like the brother's interaction in this, the dark plot and the surreal setting. Norb and Dag's beds float into a shack that is occupied by zombies but Norb thinks Dag is just being racist. Dag than finds that the woman who owns the shack is a voodoo witch and she tries to kill Norb and Dag for their teeth. The two escape but this episode is very original and very different from the shows usually stuff.

No. 9
Kreature Komforts
I like this episode because it is simple yet funny. The beavers "Slow" cousin comes to stay with them for a while and Norb is amazed how his cousin is able to live the simple life. He convinces Dag that they should do this too so the brothers become wild beavers. Only thing is is that neither likes it so go back to rebuilding their dam. This episode is funny because it makes fun of real beavers and the whole episode centres around how strange a real beaver is to the two brothers.

No. 8
Daggy Dearest
This episode centres around Dag thinking he gave birth to a mongoose and acting like a mummy to it for most the episode till he gets bored with it and tells Norb to get rid of it which his brother tries too but bonds with the Mongoose baby and the two brother's look after it till the mum comes and takes it back. The episode is funny for its absurd humor, seeing the two beavers take on a parent role and just how entertaining it is for the whole 11 minutes.

No 7
Dagski And Norb
This whole episode is a parody of Starski and Hutch and is ridiculously funny. The plot is about who's been stealing boxes, they keep making fun of the word karp and just make fun of the show in the best possible way. I think this episode is just the funniest out of all of them and that is why it makes the list. 

No 6
Trees Company
In this episode Norbert just wants some alone time so he can finish building his model but Dag won't leave him alone. Eventually Dag does go and has a party up a tree. Norb wants to be invited but when he gets up there he finds there is no one but Dag. I like this episode because I like the ending and how the two brothers decide to just party by themselves. Not the best but certainly one of the most heart warming and enjoyable.


No. 5
Stare and Stare Alike

In this classic episode, Norbert and Dag have a staring contest for a whole 11 minutes. I think one of the reasons why I love this episode is because it's plot is so simple yet so compelling. All this show has to work with most of the time is Norb's and Dag's chemistry and just seeing these two talk back and forth and trying to make the other blink is just hilarious. When ever I want to watch a funny episode I just go to this one. Classic and well written with such a simple plot, if this episode doesn't entertain you. well I don't really care.

No 4
Long tall Daggy
In this episode, Norb is horrified to find that his baby brother is taller than him. This episode is good because we get to see Norbert have a nervous breakdown over something so small but so vital to him. Dag rubs it in his face for the whole episode and Norb is less than happy to measure the next day their height. But this is when the episode becomes a personally favourite because Dag goes on his knees to make Norb look taller. After Norb thinks he's the tallest again he becomes his old obnoxious self again but what Dag did was personally such a nice thing and it really shows how Dag cares about his brothers feelings.

No 3
Pond Scum
This episode I like because I just think it's really well executed. Dag is adorable like usual and I think Norbert turning temporarily evil is done quite well. Plus I think the villain is funny and the two brothers going against each other is quite entertaining. I just like this episode. There's nothing particularly memorable about it but I think it works quite well.

No. 2
Alley Oops
This episode I like because it has a very good moral and is entertaining throughout. Norb and Dag go to a bowling alley where they have to compete against another group of brothers to play there. The kicker is is that Norb doesn't want to play because he sucks at bowling and Dag keeps saying "It's okay to do something you suck at as long as you're having fun sucking."
The Beaver brothers end up winning the game and Norb realizes that he shouldn't be so selfish and only do what he likes.

No 1
Faking it
And number one is Fakin' it. I love this episode because it just shows how much Dag cares for his brother. Norb pretends to be sick so he doesn't have to redo the damn and so Dag takes care of him. Norb abuses his power but and runs Daggett ragged. Dag then gets sick and Norb takes care of him. Dag only worsens until he is about to die and Norbert admits that he was faking. To that Dag just replies, "I WAS FAKING TOO!"
Norb gets pissed at this and threatens to beat up his brother but Dag just tells him how worried he was when he thought that Norb was sick and that he shouldn't have faked first.
Then comes the fuzzies as Norb says, "You were really worried about me?"
And the two hug and make up before both actually getting sick in the spot.

And that is my top ten episodes. I think to see if you really like the show you should check out these episodes in particular and see what you think.

And until next time!

Watch what other's won't. Bye!

My Favourite Comedy Duos

I think that in this arena, Men definitely reign when it comes to comedy duos for me.
But I'm gonna lay out my top 5 and why these 5 are so great.

Number 5
Father Ted and Father Dougal
Now these two are hilarious together and are put together in every episode. Ted's kinda like the Dougal's dad/best friend/ mentor and Dougal to Ted is just difficulty and stupid.
The whole brilliance of the show was how those two would interact and I think they were what made the show work so brilliantly. Plus the last episode really shows they bond because these two basically do everything together and even though Ted finds Dougal a nuisance sometimes, you gotta love how they still manage to remain best buds even in the worse case scenarios.

Number 4
Negil and Tulio
These two are hilarious too. With Tulio's street smarts and Negil's innocence and flirtatious nature you instantly feel the bond between these two buds from the first second the film runs. They really are quite hilarious. Even when they get into a fight it is a funny one and how these two guys can be effeminate yet charming at the same time is a hard thing to pull off. So cheers to them.

Number 3
Norbert and Daggett

 Now these two are probably the most random of the bunch. These two beaver brothers are both at fault with huge flaws and sometimes it's hard to know who you like more. With Norbs sophistication and Daggetts sweet but stupid and sometimes insane antics these two both got equal spot light in every area. It was never who was more cool or who was more stupid to me because I always so them as a package deal. You can't have Norb without Dag and vice verse. They just made a whole with both having someone unique qualities and quirks it would always have to be the Angry Beavers, never Beaver.

Number 2
Dumb and Dumber dudes
Now these two is what I would like to call retarded. They amplify the very essence of comedy and duo and really just shows you the worse and best of what two besties who are completely hugely ignorant can be like. This movie really is ridiculous but this was one of the first times we see completely chaos that is created by two morons with the best intentions, most of the time. They may be best buds but these two are also what happens when two brain damaged psychotic dudes get together. Complete and utter chaos.

Number 1
Ben and Cameron
Hey, I had to put my own fav original duo on the list. Yes Ben and Cameron have been pretty much the cool unswayed dudes of the comic Adolescence but they roles are very different. With the two it's pretty much, Cameron insult, Ben don't get. I've added another character into the mix to mix things up but these two were my first comedy duo I created myself so of course they'd be a favourite.

And there you have it, my top 5 comedy duos. Most are old news but still classics and some are barely known.

So as always,

Watch what other's won't.

See ya!

Old Cartoons that were actually quite funny

Literal is the term I'd like to use here and some cartoon shows that are now old news still hold some current satire to them.

For a starter we have the ever so blunt DUCKMAN!!!!

Move over South Park. At the time Duckman was the most topical adult show on TV. As a sex maniac widower, Duckman shows a surprisingly soft side which makes you want to love this filthy creep.
It's just, most the time you hate him, which you are supposed too.
The show was very up to date and satirised everything about the usa and the way it treated the world.


Now the animaniacs was a show that border on adult references so much that you could swear this show should've been on past eight sometimes. These nasty little angels knew just how to point out every trick and secret hollywood had well before it wanted you to know and the musical numbers were magnificent with always an insight to them and a point. To teach a lesson, whether an important one or an unimportant hollywood one. Yes this was one of the first kid shows of the nineties to have a rapid adult fanbase and is still shown on TV today.

We all know that Mickey is cool, but just how modern could he be? Well nice guys finish first here as this hit show back in early 2000s had every kid tuning in. In a way that shows the disney mascots trying to keep their own business afloat this show brings the old to the new by showing 3 skits an episode while having a side story going on about what's happening in the restaurant.

What did these 3 shows have that people always need to remember? Crossover appearance. Great animation and something for all audiences of all ages.

If you like cartoons check out these old classics and hopefully always remember that old can help shape the new and that even cartoon History should never be forgotten.

Feminist Misconceptions

Hey, one thing I've been talking about lately is balance.

And there's one area in particular that seriously needs balance.

Women and Men in the media.

Now one thing I've noticed in media is the huge amount of male characters in films, both side and main and about 90% of the cast in Hollywood films are male.

So you might think, so should we have more films with mostly girls?

NOOO!

Don't appeal to genders as if there is a gender stereotype.

The best way to fix this problem is to have the cast of characters 50/50.

Please that's it.

Have 50% of characters female, and 50% male. And please don't write them as if they are a gender. Don't write a girl and don't write a guy. Write a PERSON.

So for instance, for kid films, instead of there being 1 girl among 5 lads, make it 1 girl around 2 girls and 3 lads.

All the most successful shows that appeal to all have at least somewhat equal amount of each sex.

Friends, How I Met Your Mother, The Simpsons.

Please, females shouldn't just be shoved in there to get the female audience. Because people, girls are pretty much like guys. We may have some differences but a good balance person like both masculine and feminine and that's the way it should be.

So if and when I ever break into media that is my goal. To have girls as integral as the boys and to not differentiate the sexes.

Peace out!

Monster's University

Say what you will about this film, but for me it was simply EPIC!!!
Now like I've said in the past, don't go in with expectations and I actually failed on this a little :( Not that the movie failed but I had failed in my motto. I LOVE the first film and was actually kinda pissed off that they decided to make a prequel... but you know what... THE MOVIE WAS GREAT!!

Basic Synopsis: See how Mike and Sully became friends.

Now that that's over, I thought that this movie was really well made. I thought the character dynamic between Mike and Sully was top notch. A simple rivalry and the relationship wasn't forced at all. It actually developed quite nice and slowly which you don't see often in films and it was as more of a character driven story.

Also a stand out was the Dragon, Scorpion chick. I forgot her name but I really liked her. She was three dimensional and quite scary. SHE actually scared me. And I'm not easily frightened... okay that was a lie.

However I will admit that the side character's mostly didn't interest me. I loved Mike and Sully but all their fraternity brothers were just kinda "meh" to me.

But Sully in particular was great. He was such a jock in this but I thought he was so cool and laid back and even a little moody and hence as the number one character that stuck out most to me, Sully wins the prize.

Also evil guy from the first movie was here and I quite liked him. He was kinda nerdy and totally cool! It was kinda like the origins for what all these guys would become and that was kinda neat.



I also like how this movie says "You may love something, doesn't mean you are good at it" and how Mike really wasn't scary and that scene near the end when he goes into the human world... THAT WAS SO HEARTBREAKING BUT EPIC at the same time.

Also a little thing I love in movies is when nothing is really going on (I don't know why but Stand By Me pretty much immortalized that thing for me) where it is simply characters interacting and these two do that perfectly. I LOVED seeing them interact. I LOVE character dynamic and Mike and Sully had such a good one. So if I was gonna do a Fanfic it would be about Mike, Sully and that scorpion chick because they were the main stand outs in this film and who I will remember.

Also Mike wasn't as much as a comedian, which kinda bothered me... a little, but I do think he was better developed in this.

Also there was so many tie ins with the first movie, it was super fun for that reason. It was feel good and the last ten minutes was like the cherry on top of the perfect film. It's kinda like "Yeah you can start from rock bottom and still make it" because sometimes you can.

Also major twist that I loved was how things didn't just go straight forward narrative, the last thirty minutes were really imaginative and there's something that Sully does that is so heartbreaking to Mike, I felt like crying.

I love how no matter how much you try, this movie simply says, sometimes something is just not your destiny.

And one last thing before I finished this review. Mike's dream is displayed in this film as something he thought he would never accomplish, but does in a different way in the first movie.

Kay, that's all my geeking out for today

10/10

And remember,

Watch things other's wont.

Bye!

Equestria Girls Review

What did I think of this movie... sigh,
IT WAS AWESOME.
Okay, I know that was an outburst and a lot of bronies would disagree but to me, this movie was epic. I liked how it was done. It was so High School musical... you have no idea.
So basic synopsis, Twilight has to go into the human world to get her crown.
That over let's talk about what I like.
The humor for one thing, it was pretty hilarious. Every joke hit in my opinion, especially the ones coming from the characters.
And the girls,
Twilight in the human world was so funny. There's a scene where she's acting like a pony in a library and Snips and Snails record it. They post it on youtube and she looks like a complete...cough "Retard".
That's the best way to put it, that was honestly the best bit of the film.
She first bumps into AU Fluttershy and Fluttershy was surprisingly good in this film... but not as good, and I repeat, not as good as Applejack.
People always say about the show that Applejack is the most normal character and I think being put into the human world really made her cool because she just fit with it. Also she was probably the most cool character in the film, there was a scene where she's opening a cap with her mouth and I was, "SO COOL" and another seen where she was sitting on the desk all like, "Yeah Ah put up with this shit all the time" and also when she was pretending to be Twi and Sunset Shimmer... I was like, AJ you own every scene.
But I think the worse character in the human world was most like... sigh, Rainbow Dash. I just think she was poorly written in this. Half of her dialogue was literally "That's Awesome," "I'm Awesome," "You are so Awesome!" I mean, great way of defining her character, the character was like a five year old wrote her. Also I think she had the lease speaking role of the movie, she barely said a thing.
There was also the bad BAD romance, it was so bad it made me laugh.
Basically Twilight and "Brad" (I'm not bothered to say his full name.) just say three words to each other.
"We shouldn't keep bumping into each other this way."
"Well you know me, I make a splash!" Twilight said,
She walks away, blushes.
Later
"Twilight didn't do that, here are the real pictures,"
After the two didn't say a SINGLE word to each other in between. Then,
"Will you go to the ball with me?"
Of course it was funny how Twilight wasn't even listening and ran out freaking out over something else. And then the last line,
"Will you go with me even though you said no before?"
"Sure I know nothing about you, we've only spoken twice but hey! Your cute and you have a voice that sounds like my brother... and we all know I secretly have the hots for my brother."
"What?"
"Yes!!" 
                                     
Also the corny romance music they played every time they were together was unbearably funny.
Rarity was also good in this but didn't shine as much as AJ and Fluttershy and Pinkie were good per usual.
I think the ending just made me laugh but as in "So bad it's good!" When Sunset Shimmer turned into a bad ass fairy and zombiefied the school, and then they have a sailor moon eske moment with all the girls turning half pony and half human.
And of course Rainbow Dash would not get out of the fucking sky because you know, even though she's never flown before she knows how to naturally and has to fly (It's her signature, along with "AWESOME!") 
So all in all, what do I give this movie?
10 out of 10. It was just like the show, so it just felt natural. I loved it, so look out err... other kid shows, this movie can show you what it can do on a ridiculous concept. . :D
