Boy about to have his face caved in - Bowie

Bowie: You know, Julia, there's something Geoff once said...a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips.

Funny shot of Ripper from the new Total Drama season. I know a lot of TD fans dislike him, but I have a soft spot for the guy himself.

Yes even with the toilet humor. :bestsharptooth

Who's Who
Boy - Chase
Girl - Emma

The end result of an average "Three Guys and a Girl in a Beachhouse" video. Needless to say Chase didn't try the "biking on a wall over someone's backyard with one finger up his girlfriend's nose" joke again.

Silver Screen / Total Drama is back!
« on: June 20, 2023, 05:53:49 AM »
It's been a long time coming, but a new season of Total Drama arrived recently! :celebrate We're back to Wawanakwa with a new cast, 15 years after the original season.

In all I REALLY enjoyed the new season, super fun stuff with lots of great moments. It does have its issues (Episode 5 can be a hard watch if you don't care for toilet humor) buuuuut it's overall a SPLENDID season for Total Drama to return with. :ChomperPOG

Some of my favorite things about the new season is the LGBT romantic arc (won't mention its name to hide spoilers), Millie's character arc, 95% of the characters are GREAT, and it blends the feeling of classic Total Drama with a new, fresh and modern twist on its classic formula, with amazing animation and music. It isn't perfect, but it's SO much fun. :Mo

Here's my top 5/6 characters of the season right now...
5. Wayne+Raj (hilarious dudebros with a wholesome arc)
4. MK (little silly snarker with a REALLY cool strategy)
3. Bowie (an excellent strategist with some great snarky humor)
2. Julia (while not personally what I was expecting, she still ended up being really fun in her own way)
1. Priya (ADORABLE.)

And because of this new season, I've went back and gotten into Total Drama as a whole, which I'm really happy about. Even if it's not always the best, I think the entire show still holds up! :DD

By all means, seek the new season out and give it a watch!

Sound Off! / Re: Saddest song you ever heard?
« on: February 27, 2023, 12:14:57 AM »
I've been dipping into sad music again lately after the recent Teletoon news...apparently I love to emotionally torture myself. :Chomp Here's an underrated one.

All I Want - Kodaline

All I want is nothing more
To hear you knocking at my door
'Cause if I could see your face once more
I could die a happy man I'm sure

When you said your last goodbye
I died a little bit inside
I lay in tears in bed all night
Alone without you by my side

But if you loved me
Why'd you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I'll find somebody
Like yoooooooou
Oooooh
Yoooooooou
Like yoooooooou

So you brought out the best of me
A part of me I've never seen
You took my soul and wiped it clean
Our love was made for movie screens

But if you loved me
Why'd you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I'll find somebody...

Oh! Oh!
Ohhhhh!
Oh! Oh!
Ohhhhh!

If you loved me
Why'd you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I'll find somebody
Like yoooooou...

Silver Screen / Bluey!
« on: February 24, 2023, 10:49:17 AM »
This thread has been a long time coming. If you haven't been living underneath a Sharptooth's arse, I guarantee you that you've seen this show brought up at least once.

This show is an absolute SENSATION, on the level I haven't seen since Friendship is Magic first got big over a decade ago (GODDAMN I'M OLD :wow ). And not gonna lie...for good reason, this show is great! :celebrate

In case you don't know, Bluey is a preschool show about a family of technicolor Australian dogs. Along with the titular character, we have her younger sister Bingo, her mom Chili ("Whackadoo!"), and her dad Bandit, whom many would argue is the true star of the show but we don't have time to talk about that lol. :p

Episodes generally focus on the two imaginative daughters playing fun games together, often with their parents joining in. Sounds simple, and it is, but these games often lead to them or even their parents learning a life-lesson in some form, all with some great animation and AMAZING music. Seriously, one episode managed to make me cheer for a girl PUTTNG HER BACKPACK ON, partially thanks to playing Ode to Joy throughout. :Mo

Some episodes really go the extra mile, in fact. "Sleepytime" is a particularly famous episode, with some of the best animation and music in the show, and an incredibly powerful emotional climax that had me blubbering like a baby by the end. In fact, this show is renowned for its ability to elict tears out of even adult viewers. It's just downright impressive.

In general I've seen this show described as a show for both kids AND their parents, with lots of important lessons to share, hilarious adult jokes, and genuinely being able to move people of all ages. And after watching "Sleepytime", yeah I see why. In fact, on IMDB, Bluey was ranked higher than BREAKING BAD for a while. Yeah. Bluey is that good.

If you're curious, it should be available on Disney+...though not every episode is available oops. :areyouserious There's also plenty of content on YouTube about it, if you wanna learn more for yourself. There's NO WAY I can fully go into detail. But, this is a show I'd definitely recommend. Check it out! :)petrie

(also GOD is that theme tune catchy...)

I was just finishing up watching today's Nintendo Direct when suddenly I see this news. And to say I was surprised was an understatement. :ChomperImpressed

Okay maybe not Frozen lol. Frozen continues to be one of Disney's biggest moneymakers, and with the original movie turning 10 this year, why not make a third one? Not sure how well they're gonna continue the plot of the second movie, but I'm open to see what Disney does. :duckyOK

Toy Story 5 is a pretty contentious one. Now I LOVED Toy Story 4, but even that movie's existence was pretty contentious considering how well-loved the third movie is. So you can guess the decision to make a new movie after what SEEMED like an ideal end point that ITSELF came after an ideal end point...yeah it's a surprise to say the least. :littlefoot There's a part of me who thinks that rather than follow-up on Woody's story, it's gonna tell a story focused on a new group of toys. Similar to what the Pokemon anime's doing, I suppose. Course, I could be wrong :thinking

Finally there's Zootopia 2. Knowing the love this movie gets, I'm glad to see it getting a follow-up. :rainbowwave From what I've heard, the creators may or may not examine the possibility of a Nick/Judy couple in this follow-up, but obviously that won't be the main thing I care about, lol. :PLoofah I just really hope we see some birds or reptiles in this one, it's really odd how they were totally excluded from the original :screechconfused

But, I think these should all at least be decent films. Leave your thoughts down below! :littlefoot:)

Gamers Zone / HotelValleyfornia's Tower Defense Discussion Thread
« on: January 30, 2023, 06:44:31 AM »
I'm a girl who enjoys strategy and planning out when it comes to the games I play. So it's only natural tower defense games will appeal to me! This is a thread I've created for discussion of the tower defense genre - share our experiences, make jokes, recommend certain games, and just talk. Stuff like that really. :OhYou

Playing Plants vs Zombies' Survival Endless can be pretty tricky. A lot of my usual strats, even for the pool levels, don't really work out and I end up looking like a darned fool when a zombie waltzes through my defenses and chows on my grey matter. :Chomp Lots of strategies I've seen usually involve abusing the hell out of Gloom-Shrooms and Cob Cannons, but ugh getting all that sun is HARD :sducky I JUST WANT MORE PLANTS FOR MY ZEN GARDEN, CONFOUND IT! :whatdidyousay

Meanwhile I've also gotten into Bloons TD6. My main goal is to fully level up all the monkeys I have and grind up Monkey Money to buy other heroes. Which is taking forever, lol. :rhett_smile But no-one said it would be easy. And no, I ain't paying money to win this thing! As much of a sucker as I can be at times. :thudLOL

But I'll shush for now, and let others take it from here. Feel free to share your tower defense experiences! :bronGoodJob

But anyway, here's a thread that...probably already existed :oops but I thought it'd be fun to have one of these.

I've had a lot of fun watching different cartoon theme songs lately when I haven't been watching Milo Murphy's Law or Grossology (my current hyperfixations :PLoofah ), and it has me wondering about all of your favorites. :littlefoot:)

Detentionaire (but of course)
Clone High (WAY WAY BACK IN THE 1980S! :Chomp )
The Ghost and Molly McGee
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987)
The Loud House
DuckTales (original AND reboot)

And here's my top 5:
