I agree with them on Bolt. I thought Bolt was really solid, though not amazing, and you could possibly consider Enchanted, Bolt, and Wreck-It Ralph all in some sort of unofficial "Disney Riffs On Itself" trilogy.

I also sort of consider Bolt as the unofficial Krypto movie we'll never get.

Also this is the key that a good persona is one based upon oneself but that inflates those characteristics and possibly while the Demo Reel persona looked good on paper and in his head it didn't set with who he is.

I do like certain characters, but I stick to mostly stand-alone storylines that don't involve character death. I know why they do it, but I guess I wish they'd either just stop killing characters off entirely, or deal with milestone issues or special storylines in a way that wasn't spurned by controversy.

I don't mind outing characters as gay because that shouldn't HAVE to be a controversy.

I admit I have toyed with the idea of becoming a reviewer because of TGWTG, but I decided against it because I don't have a camera, a mic, I don't really want to be on camera anyways, and because I'm too complacent about most things to do one of those funny vitriolic reviews.

I'd like to assist someone who was one of those kinds of reviewers, though. Suggesting things for them to review, or maybe even offering ideas for jokes they could use, but leaving most of the review up to them. I had an idea for a type of episode that would work really well for CR, actually, but he's been gone so much recently that I sort of ditched that.

Monkey are a theme in their tales so Evil monkey wanting to rule over man Emperor has Magical Talisman that subjugates people to his will monkey tries to steal talisman only to be thwarted by Princess and Pet. Princess gives chase after Monkey and Emperor then searches for Princess thinking she has been taken by Monkey. Princess encounters young boy/girl/whatever that reveals to her the plight of the people being subjugated. Monkey ambushes the Emperor seizing the Amulet and turning the people into an aggressive army. Princess and companion make their way though the Monkeys forces in an attempt to rescue the Emperor. Cornered by Monkey they fight smashing the Amulet and knocking the Monkey off a Cliff/Pit/Valley whatever Emperor is confronted by angry people free of his control . Princess and Companion shield him from the hostile people as she gives a speech about some such morale. People relent and the Emperor promises reform. Cue Celebration and The End.

I don't mind The Looney Toons Show.

My only problem with it (for awhile) was that Lola was the only female and that she was portrayed as a bit psycho, but then Tina was introduced, which smoothed things out a bit. It's also kind of weird that Lola is wearing a basketball-cheerleader-dress-thing when they're trying to make her different than the Space Jam incarnation (and she no longer plays basketball).
