Shippers analyzing every single frame of animation in order to conclusively determine which characters have romantic feelings for who:

I really love this fanart. Just make Pauline's hair blonde like the arcade sprite and you basically have a fanart depiction of my "Jumpman and Lady are Mario and Pauline's parents" theory. Yes I know that doesn't work with everything said by Pauline in Odyssey but I care more about it working with Donkey Kong Country and how Cranky is really old and Mario is not. Ergo, Jumpman and Mario are not the same guy but father and son.

Now we just need Jr's spouse and the set is complete.

They confirmed Ken is into crypto

He really did lose all of his apes.

SFVI Ken has been on a ****ing journey, "Oh he's divorced" "No he's on the run from the government as he's a suspect for terrorist attacks" "Also he's in to crypto". You could not make this **** up if you tried

 

[TheMightyP]

So what would Ken's crypto company be called?

Hadukoin?
Shoryukoin?
Tastumakoin Senpuyakoin?

 

[ZephyrZ]

Come on. It's not that deep. Anthro characters have always been people that look vaguely like animals.

What weirds me out about it is that Donkey Kong himself is literally just a gorilla in a tie.

I'm supposed to believe Kandy is one too when DK is right there?

Whatever. I like Candy's 64 design. It never bugged me and every design I've seen that makes her look "more like a gorilla" always looks wrong to me.

Idk why they made a whole comic on why he's on the run and divorced when they could have just revealed that he's into crypto beforehand and everything would make sense /s

 

[Hex D. Jess]

Candy Kong is a great example of trying to make a character look sexy and having the opposite effect

DK Jr is about to start the war to end all wars and monologue about nanomachines hardening in response to trauma to a cyborg ninja.

Don't lie. That's a good design for grown up Jr. You know he ****ed off to New Donk and works an office job or something and doesn't even care about his son or father anymore.

GOTG Vol.3 was pure cinema. James Gunn concluded his time with Marvel excellently, and now we can await his full time work with DC moving forward (or at least starting next year)

Just managed to finish reading the prequel comic.

• JP's full name is Johan Petrovich
• Jackson who is Ken's surbordinate and advisor is Kimberly's uncle.
• Kalima (the assistant to JP) is acting rather suspicious and I believe she is up to something.
• Although Ken survives the explosion, it is not known what had happened to Jackson.

Yup that's artificial intelligence for you- takes an old ass riddle and just changes the answer. Looking forward to the future.

I'm just curious but had any of ya seen the movie 65 starring Adam Driver?

I'm now back at the point in Starlink: Battle for Atlas where I stopped playing my first save file due to frustration.

I'm going to pass this part this time around.

The Miz would’ve been better when it comes to a young Johnny Cage

Watch out for Fed Now coming to your banks this summer. If they don't like your purchases online, then they'll cancel what they don't like from your personal lives. The move aligns with digital currency and eliminating the paper moneys.

Now people aren't calling me paranoid for decades anymore. People better take that seriously, especially if more former bank employees are coming out and saying that publicly and even TikTok of all places.

For the first time in my life I made a good burger from scratch

Poppin off right now

Does anyone here play Quickplax or Elite Smash much anymore?

Or is the general consensus that they aren't very good (or at least polished) online modes?

 

[Hex D. Jess]

I can't believe Spy x Family dropped 3 straight chapters that managed to capture the horrors of war so realistically while still fitting perfectly with the series despite being a massive tone shift.

There's dragons.

I just thought it would be fun to make Son Wukong into a DKC style Kong, and thought it would be cool if he had a kremling rival

Genuine question, why the heck did Loonatics Unleashed get so much hate?

It's like Superhero Looney Tunes, that's just cool man

 

[Z25]

Watched the first two Unicorn episodes. It’s great! Loving the animation in every frame, art style and setting is beautifully crafted. Also the first episode is on YouTube for free, so watch it and support it!

 

[TMNTSSB4]

It's like Superhero Looney Tunes, that's just cool man

superheroes that look edgy and aren’t the actual Looney Tunes or originals that had no relations, Kids WB, not being fun and happy, and probably some other stuff

It felt like blatant trend chasing and it wasn’t good enough to make up for it. It just wasn’t what anyone wanted from the Looney Tunes.

Gonna ask this again since no one;'s answered and I'm actually really curious about this.

No, I normally play Smash locally now. Online is pretty garbo in this game
