Hmmm...well...Spike reminds me of a dog...

Ducky reminds me of my mom a little bit. Since my mom has a habit of speaking without contractions, i.e: Cannot instead of "can't"

And Little Foot reminds me of myself when I was younger. I use to sound a lot like him :)

Mr. Threehorn. He's as stubborn and mule-headed as my next-door neighbors

In fact Don Bluth wrote that Spike was to some degree designed after a dog he had known. Bluth wrote an article about this in the issue of his "Toon Talk" magazine which dealt with LBT in particular.

Interesting, I'd never have known.  I wonder if that is why he never speaks during the first movie.

I don't think Bluth was explicit about that point in his article. This weekend I'm moving to a new place and today I brought most of my LBT stuff there, including that Toontalk magazine in which the article is printed. Therefore I cannot check it out at the moment, but I will as soon as I can.

Ok getting off topic here:

Actually...what's ironic is that there is already a character Spike in the Rugrats, who is indeed a dog and doesn't talk obviously... :P: but he talks in one of the movies, it was a cross over between the Wild Thornberrys and the Rugrats. They are similar in some ways....

But yeah, nice observation and info Malte. :)

On-topic: Oh yeah...Mr. Three Horn reminds me of a few conservatives I know :p and Pterano reminds me of a cousin's dad who was immature and a liar :p I feel bad for my cousin because of this :p But Pterano does remind me of every single scared, insecure adult that's out there....

The joining of a great fan of Spike reminded me that I had promised to post that article about him from Don Bluth's Toon Talk magazine. However, as I think that this is a thread where it will easily get lost, I will post it in the character discussion section in the thread about Spike.
