Deco, buddy, pal. When does the next round start? Midnight every night, or are we just gonna wait for everyone to pick each time?

Archdeco · Posted: Thu Sep 16, 2004 11:25 pm Post subject:

Probably the first one. Kalimdel seems to be the straggler, so it really depends on how long it takes him. If everyone's done I see no point until waiting for midnight to roll around, but if one guy hasn't picked by midnight I might as well go ahead and count it as missed.

KALIMDEL · Posted: Thu Sep 16, 2004 11:35 pm Post subject:

I like to be the last one.

Dunkinbean · Posted: Thu Sep 16, 2004 11:42 pm Post subject:

Ghost in the Shell.

Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish. Ya really have to appreciate the surprisingly adult satire in Animaniacs/Pinky and the Brain.

I doin't wanna pull a Mandrang here, but I'm going with the Jews and picking Prince of Egypt. Damn well-done Moses story, with some of the coolest songs in an animated feature to boot.

I was gona say Ghost in the Shell but I figured Reitz would pick it eventually, so I kept my mouth shut.

Hmm, alot of children's movies being picked.

Krono · Posted: Fri Sep 17, 2004 11:17 pm Post subject:

That's because they're... ya know... cartoons. And cartoons generally tend to be a children's medium.

Keiver · **Formerly VGX** :fail Joined: 27 Dec 1999 Posts: 5483

Not really.. I've seen alot of Anime directed towards adults.

Like Ninja Scroll. Bad ass movie.

Krono · Posted: Fri Sep 17, 2004 11:38 pm Post subject:

Obviously anime is different from 'regular' cartoons.

Reitz · Posted: Fri Sep 17, 2004 11:41 pm Post subject:

It's more of an extension of their historical art style, plus there's absolutely no room to film live action stuff in Japan.

Totoro

FAM · Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 1:49 am Post subject:

Wallace & Gromit and the Curse of the Were-Rabbit

That's the most disturbing picture of Nekobasu I could find with thirty seconds' effort.

*edit* I take it back.

http://itc.ua/img/dpk/2003/3/!!3_1_my_neighbor_totoro.jpg

Totoro's best viewed...um...chemically assisted.

Son of a BITCH! I was actually going to pick that, too, but I thought I'd be safe saving it until this or the next round.

Ah well, I still think A Boy Named Charlie Brown is a pretty good call, and that's what I'm going with.

KALIMDEL · Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 8:11 am Post subject:

I am sorry for the delay. I shall choose The Rescuers.

Keiver · **Formerly VGX** :fail Joined: 27 Dec 1999 Posts: 5483

Right now, I'd say that my vote is an undecision between Cabbage and Reitz.

Cabbage has the upperhand though, having the Transformers movie and Aladin.

Reitz has Akira, which = both of Cabbage's good picks.

Agent Durden · Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 2:02 pm Post subject:

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Little Nemo.

[spoiler]Damn, I thought "A Bug's Life" would go early. The scenes with the fake bird were brilliant.[/spoiler]

Like the spoiler is going to stop anyone...

Toby · Posted: Sun Sep 19, 2004 11:09 am Post subject:

We're now picking cartoons on TV.

Dunkinbean · Posted: Mon Sep 20, 2004 12:10 am Post subject:

Cowboy Bebop

Krono · Posted: Mon Sep 20, 2004 12:32 am Post subject:

Whoa, what the fork, dude. We didn't even HAVE a designated round 5, but fine. It goes against all my Family Guy instincts, but I gotta go with South Park.

Archdeco · Posted: Mon Sep 20, 2004 12:34 am Post subject:

Er, that was my mistake. I didn't change it to round 5. Probably because five people had already picked their fifth round picks and I was lazy.

You're welcome to make you pick up now.
