@Snatcher
Sorry for late reply.
I was sleeping at night.
About Pepe le Pew, yeah... he was an unlikable guy with his pervert attitude, kinda like Johnny Bravo (Women never like him except his Mom and Suzie).
Pepe le Pew should be in part of Space Jam 2 as his attitude can be changed a little bit to be more sophisticated with other characters, not being a such pervert all the time. And Penelope the cat as the victim, she should be given a voice to say it aloud to Pepe le Pew if she didn't like with Pepe le Pew's attitude for chasing her as he thought Penelope was a skunk.

@Anti-Matter Hey look, Just bc of his past doesn't mean I don't think he should be in this movie, I mean the whole point of him was to show it was wrong, and there is like only one woman on the team anyway and she wont take S*** from no won.

Oh did you see Johnny Brovo as well?

@SM3DASislit
1. How do you feel about (insert company here) or what do you think of (insert company here) doing with X thing?

2. Can someone please tell me why (insert question about company or person here)?

3. A scenario like: You're the new CEO of a company your company has quite a few things to fix, what do you fix first?
These are just some of the questions I can think of.

My answer:
1. I was thinking about Konami and I really do not like with what is Konami doing for their BEMANI games by keep releasing them on Arcade only (by using e-amusement card to unlock new songs on Arcade) and PC (with subscribe payment to unlock new songs). Konami really dropped their support with BEMANI games for console since 2009 (PS2) and 2011 (Wii).

2. I pick Konami because I am a huge fan of their BEMANI games and I really want to see their BEMANI games return to modern console (PS4, PS5, Switch) without subscribe payment to unlock new songs.

3. If I am a new CEO of Konami, I will release DDR and other BEMANI games on consoles (PlayStation, Nintendo and XBOX) with better song list, more than 300 songs without DLC, I will get some contract with TOSHIBA EMI again for their 90's & 2000's Eurodance songs for DDR to indulge the DDR fans with some classic Eurodance songs, I will robust the DDR interface back to DDR EXTREME 2 + DDR X3 style with video BG and wallpaper, I will hire back Naoki Maeda and other BEMANI artists that have quit from Konami to return or at least give contributions for upcoming BEMANI songs also I will do apologize to them for a toxic experience during working on Konami by previous CEO treatment. I will also rerelease the peripheral for playing BEMANI games at home with cheaper price and sturdier material.

Yes, of course. I watched Johnny Bravo series during early 2000's era before it disappeared from Cartoon Network as the years goes by.

@SM3DASislit HAH! Love the video! It's pretty accurate. XD Though to be fair, I didn't think Capcom's conference was bad; they just didn't show anything new. Square Enix...outside of Guardians of the Galaxy, I'm sorry I wasted part of my Sunday tuning into that one.

As for your questions, I currently have no input on those, sorry.

@ThanosReXXX On my health: I'm pretty much back to 100%, thanks! I risked some items in the dairy category today. So far so good.

I've been averaging around six hours of sleep lately - it's my preferred minimum - but I normally try to shoot for seven or more if I can. Looks like you're still pretty busy, so I hope you can catch up a little on the Zs soon. I can survive short-term sleep deprivation, but longer...ugh. XD The longest I've ever been awake was 36 hours straight, not entirely voluntarily either; this was on a school trip when I was 16. A lot of that next day was spent in a dream-like state. Good thing I wasn't driving anywhere at that point. Now that I think about it, I might've dozed off during an IMAX movie we went to see....

On that Metroid article: Seems like we're in agreement there. I would've liked to leave some kind remarks, as well as constructive criticism, but I figured any of my positivity would be lost in the increasing mess at that point. I deemed the comments not worth my time and mental energy, so I noped out of there.

@Snatcher Nope, not a single command needed in the forums. Only in the regular comments sections.

As for the He-Man cartoon vs the She-Ra one: I honestly wouldn't be able to comment on that, seeing as I haven't seen anything of the new She-Ra cartoon, but if it is made by the same people, then I don't see why it couldn't be just as good. The original series was also good enough, after all.

And although I do like the vibe of the new He-Man cartoon, which does seem to hit the right spot in some ways, I do think that it is so very typically looking like modern day Western animation, with characters drawn relatively simply in some ways, and always with a lot of sharp angles and edges, especially in the faces. Compare that to Asian animation, and they are still MILES ahead of anything we'd ever be able to produce. We are more proficient and successful with 3D animation, which kind of leaves 2D animation as an abandoned field, to some extent, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, regardless of my criticism, I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing the series air on Netflix, so it's definitely on my radar now, thanks to you.

@Anti-Matter Oh, man. Stop acting so ridiculous for once. Pepe Le Pew isn't a pervert at all. You make him sound like some kind of molester or rapist, but he's not. The idea is simply that he is madly in love and love is making him blind, making him do all these things. That is also the entire comedy behind the concept of that particular cartoon, and to be honest, it's funny as hell.

You're ruining that completely innocent and funny cartoon and turning it into something that it's not. Just because you don't like something, doesn't mean that it's bad or wrong, I've told you that a million times before already. And besides, it's a classic cartoon: trying to force modern day morals or political correctness onto that is way beyond stupid. You have to see everything in the right context.

@ThanosReXXX I agree, In regards to she ra, well no, there made by two different people.

They took she ra and ran her into the ground. But I kinda like the sharpness in some of the characters features, He man I do think, he needed but everyone else, HMM they could have if they wanted to, make them look more simple looking, Well at least it doesn't look like the new thundercat's (OMG did you see it? they look like crap!)

I do think tho pepe was kinda of a perv but I think the whole point of his cartoons was "Its okay to love some won, Its ok to be madly in love with some won, But you can violate there space or something like that"

Not even that he thought she was a skunk, I agree with you 100% Stuff like she was a cat (If I remember right) with the colors of a skunk just made that cartoon fun to watch.

Um...
I do like Pepe le Pew.
I have his pictures on my Tazos chips.
Maybe I used a wrong English word to describe his blind love behaviour with Penelope. 😣

@Snatcher No, I haven't seen any of the new Thundercats, but if it's half as bad as you make it sound, then I wouldn't want to watch it anyways. I'll just stick to my positive memories of the original. As for the way these cartoons are drawn: just compare them to the original 80's cartoon, and you'll understand what I mean. The original He-Man cartoon was in many ways more life-like, movement/animation actually based upon real people, and the new version is more action-cartoony. Not a bad thing, mind you, just different.

But in general, Western animation is more like that, with the sharp edges and rather simple facial features. The same can be seen in many Marvel and DC comics animations. They're still entertaining enough to watch regardless, but especially with the He-Man cartoon, when you've got the original to compare to, it just kinda stands out immediately.

As for Pepe Le Pew: no, he really wasn't a pervert. His whole character is obviously a parody on the French, and the whole comedic skit is that the cat is kinda dumb and/or unfortunate, always finding some way to have an accident which results in her looking like a skunk, which then of course results in the whole amorous pursuit.

Basically, you're doing the exact same "out of context" thing that Anti is doing: there is no ""violating space" thing going on in these cartoons at all. That's a 2020's woke politically correct metoo thingy, NOT how it was originally intended and how it should be interpreted.

@ThanosReXXX Well that my take, That what I got from watching it years ago, but to each is there own.

If you want you can look up the new thundercats, bc you don't even need to watch it to see what i'm talking about. I have to compare the new He man shows to see what your fully talking about, and then I will reply on that later.

Rode paved pumptrack for four hours today in the hot sun. My body is spent. I thought I'd only be there an hour tops, but there were some nice people there riding today. And I had two large, cold, insulated water bottles, and a lemonade tea, for a pick me up.

@TheJGG Seems as though we're in agreement on that article: Decent written content, but a title that could've been phrased a LOT better.

Again, no pressure on when you get back to me; we all have lives to live off the internet, after all! I don't quite have time to watch that full video right now, but I'm bookmarking it for viewing later. I'll be sure to comment on it further when I do view it. As I mention that, I just realized I still haven't watched the second Nintendo Treehouse segment for Metroid Dread.... It's at least the last segment I wish to view! XD

Oof, good catch on A Hat In Time; I didn't think to look into the file size! 16 GB is no laughing matter. I have a 256 GB micro SD to work with, but I'd rather it stay in service for several years before it reaches capacity lol. Looks like there's a physical release, so I might think about grabbing that for a reasonable price. Still going back and forth between if I want to jump straight into Ys IX or play VIII first. Normally I would've waited a bit to grab the former, but Falcom games tend to be vaporware after a few months. That's a LOT of hours for Stardew Valley over the last three weeks! I should take a week off work just to game and do other leisure activities....

Glad to learn Three Houses has some very robust lore; I love well-crafted lore in games, I can really get into it if I become interested enough. In my World of Warcraft days, I used to spend hours reading about something or other. The 3DS Fire Emblem games deserve to be ported. It's easy for me to recommend most of them for some or many aspects. Story, mechanics, characters, interesting maps....The series can be pretty fun! As for the BotW DLC, are we talking about the Master Cycle Zero? I'm aware it exists and can't wait to get my hands on it!

I actually haven't seen a lot of footage on Sonic '06. Out of morbid curiosity, I just might look up that kissing scene! As for Jim Carrey, I wasn't even aware he was still making movies (shows how out of touch I am with some aspects of Hollywood more than anything) until he appeared in the Sonic trailer. I agree, he's very talented and fits into most roles like a hand into Robotnik's glove. You're making me want to track down Dumb and Dumber even more at this point! I looked up a couple of clips after my last post. The IOU bit still kills me!

Pandemic-wise, it's definitely easier to avoid people where I am. The closest grocery store is also about ten minutes from here if one drives. As for clothes, I probably wasn't very clear: I dislike clothes shopping. I'll look for and buy something if I genuinely need it, but I get no joy from trying things on for hours on end. I'd rather just grab a couple of outfits; my mother and sister would rather throw a huge pile into my arms. /shudder It's a lot of time and bother, more than I care to invest most of the time. I do sleep with white noise - I run a fan - but that's more to help drown out the early morning traffic that passes near my home. I do prefer low noise environments in general. Less distractions that way.

Freaky. So Google Maps even recorded where you stayed? On one hand, it probably helps link a couple of missing location pieces when someone can't recall where exactly they've been. That sort of tracking can be useful for security, information, and data purposes, but it's a two-way street. So...I believe I'm also of two minds. Due to my field, I'm somewhat cautious on data tracking in general however.

Accents are fun! I don't have to code mine often, but you certainly pick up on differences when traveling to a region with a different dialect. The fun part is that those out of the Upper Midwest (Chicago, Milwaukee, etc.) think that some people around where I live have Southern accents; maybe from their perspective, but those people clearly haven't been to parts of Kentucky or Tennessee. “Con-troversy”, if I'm saying it correctly, is definitely a new one on me. You nailed the American pronunciation.

I hope that swimming lesson went well! It's warm enough here that I wouldn't mind jumping into a pool for a bit. I'm salivating thinking about that wagyu sandwich! I'm sure that English roast, while not the most flattering visually, was quite tasty! Not too much different from the pot roast I sometimes ate growing up. Though I've never had Yorkshire pudding. A quick web search shows that there's something similar in the US called a "popover", but I've never had those (or, before now, heard of them) at all.

Already visited the ancient pyramids, did we? Still, sounds like there's plenty of nice, refreshing water in your future! Dairy Queen is a fast food chain, your typical burger/French fries/soda/ice cream provider. Not as populous as McDonald's, and I'd argue the former's food (and ice cream) are better. DQ is really famous for their Blizzard ice cream treats. Is Coldstones similar to Cold Stone Creamery in the States? None of those are near here, but I've been to one! Very good ice cream. (Note: I'm usually not picky about where my ice cream comes from!) I bake on occasion, but I'm not a hobbyist and more do it for an event or reunion I'm going to. Probably a good thing - I'd be too tempted to go crazy on some of my creations!

@Anti-Matter Yeah, I think you did use the wrong word. Pervert is a negative word, and almost makes Pepe sound like a criminal, when it's just innocent love sickness.

@Snatcher That's the thing, though: it's not so much about a personal take on things, but about the actual facts and the original intent of the cartoon. Perhaps both you and Anti are just too young to be able to put these old cartoons in the right context, because you'll always be looking at them through today's eyes, and that's just not the right way to look at it. Anyway, let's leave it at that, and move on from Pepe to more interesting stuff, like He-Man.

Here's an episode of the original cartoon, so you can better understand what I mean:

And if you liked that, then here's a 3 hour marathon of episodes. And here, you'll find one of the full length He-Man movies of the 80's, which happens to be a crossover with the original She-Ra cartoon, so you can have a look at the original version of that one as well.

P.S.

In case you don't have the time right now to watch them, but would like to do so later, then you might want to install 4K Video Downloader, which allows you to download any and all YouTube videos. I use it all the time, to store stuff on external drives and then watch it on my TV.

If you're gonna use it, I'd recommend downloading the offline installer initially (just click on the small arrow next to "Online Installer" to open the rest of the menu for Windows, so you can select the proper one for your version of Windows). For updates and so on, you'll automatically use the online installer anyways, but I always use full installers instead of online ones, the first time I install a program, just in case.

@ThanosReXXX But you see, thats kinda how I have always seen him, even before all this political stuff, I have seen him that way for a long time and that was the message I got from the cartoon. But don't get me wrong, I can fully see, And me, find the cartoon very funny, I never did once find it offensive, I don't think he needed to be adjusted or removed from the cartoons at all, Nor do I agree with it, Maybe the word pervert is a little rough, I guess he just wasn't very idk but I think pervert would be the wrong word here, bc he is not a pervert in that sense, Maybe you have a better word for it, And when I said it was about violation I simply meant that the cartoons never said it was okay to begin with, so removing him from space jam mad no sense, I hope you can get what i'm saying or if i'm making any sense.

those toys are actually meant to be knockoff bootlegs...and really some of them are a remake of old bootlegs lol. motu/he man collectors have moved on to these figures actually, as they are highly sought after. they sell out the day they launch on the official site. its been that way for years with these, i know you dont know all this stuff.
