Exactly! It's like she forgot they were still making the movies!Sniper Team 4 said:I have gone through many posts in this thread, but you take the cake. Why did we need to know this? What does it have to do with anything? You are totally correct in the publicity bullshit. The books were starting to fade in their popularity, so she went out and tried to create a controversy so people would start talking about them again.katsumoto03 said:Dumbledore being gay. It wasn't in the books, so I'm calling publicity bullshit.
Some were kind of stupid, ill give you that but for every Mr Mime, Chansey and Lickitung, there were at least 3 Arcanines, Charizards or Nidokings, they looked the part. Pokemon from the name Pocket Monsters, they looked menacing and tough, the ones from like Ruby/Sappire onwards (They at least had Rayquaza and Absol) they looked like they should all be plushies, back in the old days (Damn i feel like an old man now =/) If you drew Piplup and shown it to your friends, they'd probably laugh, but now a days thats the norm, we're getting less serious looking things and more things even an infant would find too cutesy.emeraldrafael said:Considering that they dont have to put the game out, I think people should be happy with what they get. Besides, the design inst what makes the game good its the mechanics. NAd a good portion of the pokemon had rather cool designs, considering some of the older ones were some of the most retarded things I've seen.goldendriger said:Snip
Shh, it's just a phrase people throw around to say they didn't like it. You can't make a thread about "List things that happened in your favored series that you didn't like".canadamus_prime said:No! That's not my call to make. Only the original creator has the right to declare what is or is not canon, or in the absence of the original creator, whomever is left in creative control of the thing. Whoever goes around declaring things non-canon because they didn't like it obviously has their head stuck so far up their own ass that they now breathe shit instead of air.
There are certainly a few SG-1 filler episodes that I could do without but "200" was awesome. Unless you mean that there would never have been a "Wormhole X-treme!" movie - you're probably right about that part.thenumberthirteen said:OT: To me the Stargate Episode "200" isn't canon. A minor thing, but It's all I can think of right now.
Midichlorians? Aren't those things attracted to those strong in the Force? I mean, that's the only explanation for what Qui Gon was talking about, they couldn't cause the Force or anything.DustyDrB said:I do this quite a bit. Midichlorians? Naahhh, my mind tosses that idea right out. I think my ease at doing this is why I still love the Star Wars prequels.
If they make a Mass Effect movie based on Shepard, I will deny its existence.
Who are these "Near" and "Mello" you speak of? Did L train them in some expanded-universe story after he'd dealt with Kira? ;-)DukeOfStupid said:At guy who said last episode of death note (missed the quote button...)
Really?
i liked the last episode, if anything i thought people would say near and mello never existed =P
Probably because you're (we're) not the target demographic. Pokemon isnt for our age, its for young kids. And lets not forget, these people that are "designing these crappy pokemon" are also designing new looks for old pokemon.goldendriger said:Snip
Don't get me wrong. "200" ranks alongside my all time favourite SG-1 episodes, and is by far the most entertaining, but I don't consider it in continuity with the series. In the Stargate Universe "200" never actually took place. Just because something isn't in canon doesn't mean it's necessarily bad. I put is as non-canon mainly due to the ending where Walter suddenly changes into combat gear.Wereduck said:There are certainly a few SG-1 filler episodes that I could do without but "200" was awesome.

Lol few of those comments made me laugh ^_^ ill admit some of those new ones you mensioned look pretty cool, except the first few (Just a snake? and basically Bambi if he got stuck in a bush?) And i suppose you have a point about the demographic, But still that didnt stop them making 8 foot tall beasts with horns and teeth, I just think they need to add in a few more like Ononokusu, that looks a little like Tyranatar, so thats a start =D Plus shouldnt Capcom know that some hardcore fans (Or in this case many hardcore fans) followed it to the newer generations?emeraldrafael said:Probably because you're (we're) not the target demographic.

Oh noes, someone pissed off Big Bird
The original designs werent that great, even back then. So when you go and say that these designers are making crappy pokemon, remember they're making older pokemon new sprites. If they had just left the original 150 as their original sprites, everyone would be pissed. So its a little hard to be original, when you have to appease people who are far to old for the game so they dont whine and ***** that their favorite old pokemon look dumb.
And you're going to tell me that Weavile, Dialga, Electivire, Empoleon, Arceus, Darkrai, Giratina (either form doesnt really matter, though Giratina-O looks cooler in my opinion), And Lucario dont all look cool? Plus Garchomp.
And in the new generation, you get Kojondo, Jalorda, Mebukijika, Shibirudon, Zeburaika, Ononokusu, Sazandora, Pendoraa, Genosect, and Victini all are bad designs?
As opposed to what, six? Yeah, like they ever went through that much trouble. Hehe, they probably wouldn't even be that good, anyway.zala-taichou said:There are only three Star Wars films. Nuff said...
They will, and by then they wont be the demographic. Besides, capcom has nothing to do with pokemon.goldendriger said:Snip
