Can someone try the Dragon Age animated series and tell me that I need not bother to watch it? That would save me some time, thanks!

Staring at the list I've only watched the Home Alones, and that at a time when I was the target demographic for the films. Also, uhm, and I'm surprised I have memories of the film at all as it came out 1985, I've seen Santa Claus: The Movie. I think that's it, unless this counts: Sure, if we count films that are set around Christmas, then I guess Rocky IV would count. Iron Man 3 too. Yeah, I'm going with no here.

I was thinking of Pegasus, not Nako Nako, but that works... kinda.

Yes, of course she is. She's also really terrible CGI when having to go somewhere or an obvious hand puppet, depending on the episode budget and the scene. The most hilarious part is, when she's a plush toy, she really is a plush toy. When Ami first sees Luna, she talks to her, and Usagi comes to Ami and says: "I saw you talking to my plushie."

Usagi helps Minako escape from the hospital and her possessed manager. They end up in a store to buy new clothes for Minako because she got hers dirty in the escape, then the shop lady tells her that her fans are piling up outside. Usagi puts on Minako's old clothes, undoes the braids of her heir, puts on a hat and says that she'll distract them so Minako can escape. Minako wants to say something, but Usagi is off already. Minako: "But... there's a back door. She really is an idiot."

Minako's manager is incredibly... flamboyant and effeminate. Okay, that's enough about this for now, I guess. Edit: Minako thinks Makoto and Usagi figured out that she's Sailor V, but they're just there for an autograph. Judging by her reaction, I think that might mean she'll be serious Minako. Well, boo.

Anyway, how often do you guys think they had to re-shoot that scene? I'd love to see an outtake reel for that episode. Looking all serious like that, talking to a plush toy, with that dialogue? Yeah, no. Rei looks like she's about to burst into laughter, just half a second later she's hard at work keeping the corners of her mouth from forming a big grin. Edit: Usagi and Makoto transform into nurses to sneak into the hospital where Minako is after a minor car accident. I... I think that's it. I officially really enjoy watching this series. Bizzare, but there it is.

Did you win this time?

Make it a winged unicorn, and I'm game.

In my little world musical films do not exist. Well, not entirely, I was forced to sit through that travesty of a Phatom of the Opera movie. Can't answer the question, but I'll make sure to take care to not watch the film, like ever.

Bruce has relatives in England. In Cloud cuckoo land, that is enough of a reason.

She doesn't read the forum, no, but the necklace is not a secret present either. Not buying (kinda pricey) jewelry without checking if she likes it first.

Usagi has a fight with her mother over not having cheese in her omelette and runs away from home, eventually ending up with Rei when Zoisite finishes his 'Requiem for a Princess', the music sheets coalesce into a monster and the monster begins to attack princesses all over Japan with a... song, and the Guardians with CGI notes. Pretty sure they stole that idea from a Mario game or two. It's strange to see Rei and Usagi get along as well as they do. It's not them being friends that is strange, but Rei had plenty of opportunities to berate Usagi in this one and she never did. It's unnatural, I tells ya. Edit: Usagi starts crying when she learns that they're all from the Moon Kingdom, because it means her mother isn't her real mother. I shall award a bonus point for bringing it up. I'll deduct it when they inevitably come up with a contrived, silly explanation.

Surprised there were no red cards. That foul, combined with kicking the ball at the Dutch substitute bench, and the Dutch player running over the Argentinian player, well, dunno, feels like there should have been at least one, if not two. On the other hand, the Dutch are pretty much immune to getting red cards for attacks, so why am I surprised?

Incidentially... my wife's Christmas present arrived too: Matching companion piece to the earrings from two years ago. Well, the image link's broken. Boo. Boo.

Well, they're pretty efficient. One shot, one goal. Not bad. Maybe the last five minutes will make up for the rest of the game.

Don't worry, I've basically hated every Addam's Family offering except the 60ies black and white series. I'll check it out eventually, I guess.

Who gives a damn about them dancing or not? Seriously, some people. That said, this WC is officially over for all I care, all that's left is rooting for Morocco to win the damned thing for a bit of a shakeup.

Yeah, Microsoft's potential monopoly is bad, they might use their market power to hurt the monopoly I like.

I used to think that was a factor, but it randomly happens even while staying on the same page. Posting to a new page is not the root cause, but it seems to happen more frequently when a new page is created while typing. It also happens in PMs, and therefore is really rather unlikely to be linked to any specific amount of postings in between beginning to type and pressing Submit Reply. Whether that problem is linked at all to the CR/LF issue our Danish and Swedish members are experience is anyone's guess, but I'd say no. They get the first paragraph of their reply through after all. An eaten post is gone completely, and the fact that it still remains as saved draft means that something goes wrong during the posting itself.

I was just worrying about you losing a post like that, honest!

That does not always work, it sometimes randomly decides to not save drafts (or a moderator locks the thread in the meantime ), or you'll get older versions of your post when hitting backspace. Copying the text to your clipboard is the only way to make sure.

Started watching a German documentary about the three lawyers defending Beate Zschäpe. I came close to posting about this in the funny thread, because there's something inherently amusing about the lawyers of a famous Neo-Nazi terrorist having the last names Heer, Stahl and Sturm. If someone came up with these names in a movie script they'd be laughed out of the writer's room.
