Season 3 is now over.  We had some fun times.  We have whole new Pokemon.  Plus, this is where Ash started to show his true skills.  Sure, he still has a lot to learn, but he's showing real potential.

However, now begins the real challenge.  Things will only get tougher for Ash as he goes on.  We continue with Season 4 with Johto League Champions!

Silver Screen / Jackie Chan Adventures
« Last post by HotelValleyfornia on May 25, 2025, 06:24:03 PM »
So as you might've noticed, I kind of vanished from this forum for a while. A looooooong while. :oops And in that hiatus of mine, I came across many different shows and toons that I got super into. The most notable example being Puppy Dog Pals, currently my favorite show of all time. But I won't write an essay on that show today...tempting as it is :bestsharptooth

Instead, I wanna talk about another, pretty underrated number I got into around fall of last year.

So, Jackie Chan Adventures. What be this show? Well, it's a long story. In the late-90s-early-00s era, Jackie Chan was a pretty legendary actor who had a BIG following. And there's been a bunch of celeb-toons in the past. But honestly, JCA is way better than most other celeb-toons. The lore is really expansive and impressive, and the show expands on everything in a really fun way as the plot moves along. Expect the unexpected - there's plenty of twists and turns and big adventures. You'll never know where this show will take you!

Moreover, the show's cast is super fun. In addition to the likability and coolness of J-Chan himself, there's also his plucky niece Jade, who is probably one of the best kid-appeal characters I've seen in a show. Uncle is also a riot and his dynamic with Tohru in the post-season 1 episodes is great fun. And oh the glorious villains! :evilsmile Shendu is a classic animation antagonist - his threat casts a looming shadow over everything and he's one of the most threatening cartoon villains I've seen. The Dark Hand is also really fun and so are future villains like Shendu's fellow dragon demons in season 2 and Daolon Wong in season 3 (whoever voiced him had a BLAST, let me tell you). But, who is HotelValleyfornia's favorite character? Why, that honor goes to none other than Valmont! When I got into this show, he stole my heart like he steals large amounts of money. He's a genuinely intimidating guy who works as a great arch-rival to Jackie...at first. But as the show goes on, everything he goes through turns him into a downright adorable and pitiable wreck who, come season 4, is REALLY struggling just to get by in life because of everything Shendu has done to him. He's got a great design, a lovely voice with a stunning British accent, he can be both intimidating and funny, and...he's honestly rather attractive, not gonna lie. :angel

One moooooore thing! At the end of episodes, Jackie Chan himself shows up to answer kids' questions, and it's something great for the J-Chan enthusiasts out there! ;)Cera

By all means, I highly recommend checking the show out. It's quite underrated and super enjoyable.

Don't mean to post in a dead topic, but this doesn't look like it belongs here.

And my new avatar is Skyfire, a character from Transformers in general, though this specific version of him is from the G1 cartoon (1984-1987)!  :)
