Well, y'all know how this works, so it's no use in trying to explain it (I guess).
Ask me whatever you want and I will try to come up with something mildly coherent as an answer :lol
Ask away!

Do you have a favorite Land Before Time character? If so, who is it and why is he/she your favorite?
-
Why did you choose the username "Midnight"? It's always interesting to know why people come up with their names :yes

Littlefoot seems to be my favorite character, the voice they gave him in the Spanish dubbing really sold it for me. He sounded reflexive yet a little inexperienced to truly face his problems. I have yet to try the original voice and see if it reinforces my opinion, but for the time being, he is my champion :p

Well, you see... Umbreon is one of my favorite PokÈmons, and his PokÈdex entry describes him as the "Moonlight PokÈmon"... that really stuck with me for years, and not long ago I joined a forum in which I finally used "Moonlight" as a name. I don't like to repeat nicknames, so when I found out about this place I tried to come up with something that sounded alike... and I really liked how this sounded.

Hello! What do you like to do in your spare time?
Hi C:
Well, this is a great part of what I do (I post actively in five forums and I'm a member of seven) but what I really like to do it's play 1vs1 or 2vs2 Ping-Pong Tournaments with friends, read a good book, go to the stadium... there's always time to watch a good-old cartoon too, and I also like to babysit my nephew.

As a fellow ZP fan I have to ask this: what is your favorite Zero Punctuation review?

Until yesterday, I would have said "Deus Ex", but now that I have seen the "Injustice: Gods among us" one, I will have to go with that one.

It is actually a nameless vixen that appears at the beginning of "The Fearless Four", a movie from 1997.
Sadly, she had no dialogue nor further appearances on the flick. But here's the song in which she is featured: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp9z_PNrOfs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp9z_PNrOfs)
Enjoy!

Did you see my green ranger LBT crossover's?

What genre of music do you enjoy most (may be multiple choice also)? :)

Not yet, I'm reading the topic page by page, so it's going to take some time... but, at this pace, I should find it pretty soon!
What genre of music do you enjoy most (may be multiple choice also)? :)
I love ballads and pop... beautiful songs with great musical accompaniments and strong messages... that's my one-way ticket to dreamland (although I can't say "no" to a good rock and/or heavy metal song whenever I feel like trespassing the boundaries of my own taste).
-
Ah, then quite some LBT songs should fit into your favourite genre of music ;) I don't really have A favourite style but several (and I also, on occasions, listen to genres I usually don't pay much attention to). In general its rather eletronic music for me but some (hard)rock is also awesome :lol
-

Yeah, I should really go back and listen to some of those tunes, my friend :)
Any more questions, my friends?

Oh you know that was one of the very first ones I did, as Cera is my favorite character. I thought drawing her blowing bubble gum would suite her as a human.

If I remember correctly what you've already mentioned, you're from Argentina and one of your favorite sports to watch is soccer (or rather football, as it is referred to in that part of the world). Is that correct?
If so, I kinda wished you had joined less than a year ago, when the 2014 FIFA World Cup was going on. It would have been interesting to hear your perspective in the discussion topic (http://www.gangoffive.net/index.php?topic=13304) we had. How much of the 2014 FIFA World Cup did you watch?

You are entirely correct, I'm from Argentina and I'm definitely nuts for soccer (and with that I mean... I can't even watch it on TV without cursing :lol).
To tell you the truth, I have read that topic, and, since you mentioned it, there's something I want to share: You see... I didn't actually want us to win the cup because the entity that controls soccer around here was being EXTREMELY corrupt lately, deciding matches and results for the local league on a desk, and without even try to hide that fact from the public. They went as far as to choosing the worst possible team of referee and linesman to decide the last match of the Second League Tournament (which at the time was being fought between the Club AtlÈtico Independiente -multiple times champion of America and Champion of the World a few times- and El Club AtlÈtico Hurac·n, whose campaign was being amazingly good and was just about to be promoted). The match was plagued with irregularities and I couldn't stand it anymore... when I talked about that with those who I tought were my friends, I got banned from the forum I joined in 2004 for "disturbing a collective moment of joy"... and I rooted for Germany all the way thru the finals... it finally paid off jaja.

Were you aware that Ed Hyena from Lion King and Sierra the Most Evil Leaf Eater were voiced by Jim Cummings?
Jim Cummings will :wub :wub me then if I ever get my way and get my movies (Land Before Time XIX: The Time of Choosing , The Land Before Time XX: The Heart Whispers, and The Lion King III: Return of the Hyenas) that he'll be in there 2 or three times though he might be a bit :cry :cry that his characters are both killed off in the ending of them (in The Land Before Time XX: The Heart Whispers, his character is done in by Pterano and in The Lion King III: Return of the Hyenas, his character, Banzai, and Shenzi are killed by falling rocks that Simba and Kovu sent at them.)

Actually no, I wasn't aware of that.
Thanks for the fact :yes!

To build on this from above:
I love ballads and pop.
Like which ones do you consider good, or even your favorites? I have a funny feeling you and I share a lot of similar musical tastes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x65ZPd11gxY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x65ZPd11gxY)
Like I could listen to songs like this from Michael Bolton or James Ingram.

Those were awesome, thank you for sharing them!
My favorites are: The Ballad of Clay Carmine, Turn up the Music (Lemonade Mouth), The Ballad of Magellan (Animaniacs!), Fading like a flower (Roxette) and Ballad for a Falling Star (Moonlight Circus)... among many others.

Don't mind me, I'm just shaking the dust off of this :p
Ok, I'm kind of bored, so feel free to ask :p
-
Do you have any pets?
-
Do you have any pets?
As a matter of fact, yes, I do :p
I have three male dogs, a female dog, a couple of cats (male and female) and there used to be a bird and two hamsters around here.
Oh yeah, and a couple of turtles... we had to give those away, they were being molested by the other animals.

I figured that I would add my response to your question here, as the last half is actually is a question for you. ;)
I have not played Age of Mythology, though I have played Age of Empires 1-3 and enjoyed them immensely. I still remember playing the first Age of Empires for hours straight when it first came out.
What are your opinions on Age of Mythology? Do you think that it would be a worthwhile addition to my game collection?

Yes, it would definitely be a worthwhile addition to your game collection. It's kind of a "must have" if you like this sort of games, actually. That said, I gotta admit that I like the game less now than when I first played it.
Don't get me wrong, it is a very good, solid RTS but... in all the time that's passed since my first playthrough, I'm actually starting to see some of its mechanics as "not as great". For example, you have to build a temple in order to summon mythological creatures (which is not bad) but you also have to put some of your villagers to pray on them in order to gain favors from the Gods... and if you don't have those villagers praying, you won't be able to summon anything (and in a game with "mythology" on the title, that would be a big letdown). That's not really bad, but it is annoying and it forces to keep training villagers just to have minotaurs and the like on the field -even though you could easily win the battle with normal troops-. Thankfully, some civilizations don't require you to do that.
I'm also not a big fan of how quickly the computer moves on the higher sets of difficulty... raise the bar just a little and you would find yourself being under constant attack (or at least "espionage") before you even know it. That's again not bad, since it presents a good challenge, but it can be a bit overwhelming.
I have some other pet peeves, but nothing THAT big (and the game makes up for them with its strategic side, which I actually find tremendous). Oh, and the online community for the game is actually amazing, some of those battles make you like if you were on the field just because of how intensely they are fought.

Don't mind me, just cleaning the spiderwebs... :D

Gotta be honest with you, I forgot this thread even existed... so, thanks for the reminder!
As for your question: yes, I have watched the entire filmography of Charlie Chaplin.

No such thing as "too personal" for me, friend :)

What do you think of the Disney remakes like The Lion King or Aladdin?

Seeing this topic again made me stumble across a question I had asked you eight years ago about your home country's performance in the FIFA World Cup the previous year (with quite an interesting answer). Well, now that Argentina just won the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, what were your thoughts on that tournament?
-

I haven't seen them, but knowing what Disney is up to as of late, I expected them to be really, really bad, filled to the brim with changes that didn't need to exist.

Frankly, one of the reasons for which I didn't mind losing this account was that I'm effectively not the same person who joined the forum all those years ago - I have grown and changed quite a lot and my feelings have changed as well on pretty much all topics, especially football.
I watched the entire thing and nearly had four heart attacks during the finals.
I know that this was supposed to be a pretty controversial WC, but I don't know anything about that - I was just there to enjoy something we needed. Badly.

Have you ever seen the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?
-
Have you ever seen the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?
Yeah, it was one of my favorite shows growing up and had a couple of the toys as well. I even rented a hideously bad VHS taped called "Coming Out Of Their Shell Tour" or something like that... it was SO bad that I couldn't watch it through, not even as a kid. And the cherry on top? I still have it! The video store just wouldn't take it back :lol
-
Would you still consider being a fan or at least re-watching some TMNT?
Also, can you recognize my pfp?

I tried to rewatch some of it, but it just wasn't grabbing me and then somebody pointed out to me that there were so many new iterations that I just wouldn't know where to start!
Is that from the Nickelodeon one?
-
Yeah, two of my favorite characters to be specific, and as a TMNT fan since 2009, I believe I can help you, I will message you real quick.

I'm afraid that I don't remember the series that well.

Also love that one, especially the ending theme... and the ultra famous performing group 'Les Luthiers' from my country did some of the voices in that one.
Might be due for a rewatch.
